BCPs are stable identifiers for Best Current Practices. A BCP may consist of a single RFC or a group of RFCs related to a specific IETF process or recommended guidelines. The collection may become empty as the BCP evolves.

Abstract
The PPP Working group has developed two protocols, one to control compression on PPP links; the Compression Control Protocol (CCP), documented in draft-ietf-pppext-compression-04.txt. The second is the Encryption Control Protocol (ECP), used to control encryption on serial links, documented in draft-ietf-pppext-encryption-03.txt. This document specifies an Internet Best Current Practices for the Internet Community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements.
