Another thing to keep in mind is that Cisco does not use a standard HDLC 
header. That's why PPP is recommended for interoperability with non-Cisco 
devices. Cisco doesn't take advantage of any of the reliability features of 
standard HDLC, and Cisco added a field to the header to identify the next 
layer up, such as IP, DDP, DECnet, etc.

Cisco's HDLC has been discussed many times on this list, so check the 
archives for more details.
