+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.sp
+.LP
+The \fBpppstats\fR utility reports PPP-related statistics at regular intervals
+for the specified PPP interface. If the interface is unspecified,
+\fBpppstats\fR defaults to \fBsppp0\fR. The display is split horizontally into
+input and output sections containing columns of statistics describing the
+properties and volume of packets received and transmitted by the interface.
+.SH OPTIONS
+.sp
+.LP
+The \fBpppstats\fR options are:
+.sp
+.ne 2
+.na
+\fB\fB-a\fR \fR
+.ad
+.RS 13n
+Display absolute values rather than deltas. With this option, all reports show
+statistics for the time elapsed since the link was initiated. Without this
+option, the second and subsequent reports show statistics for the time since
+the last report.
+.RE
+
+.sp
+.ne 2
+.na
+\fB\fB-c\fR \fB\fIcount\fR\fR \fR
+.ad
+.RS 13n
+Repeat the display \fIcount\fR times. If this option is not specified, the
+default repeat count is 1 if the \fB-w\fR option is not specified, otherwise
+infinity.
+.RE
+
+.sp
+.ne 2
+.na
+\fB\fB-r\fR \fR
+.ad
+.RS 13n
+Display additional statistics summarizing the compression ratio achieved by the
+packet compression algorithm in use.
+.RE
+
+.sp
+.ne 2
+.na
+\fB\fB-v\fR \fR
+.ad
+.RS 13n
+Display additional statistics relating to the performance of the Van Jacobson
+TCP header compression algorithm.
+.RE
+
+.sp
+.ne 2
+.na
+\fB\fB-w\fR \fB\fIwait\fR\fR \fR
+.ad
+.RS 13n
+Pause \fIwait\fR seconds between each display. If this option is not
+specified, the default interval is five seconds.
+.RE
+
+.sp
+.ne 2
+.na
+\fB\fB-z\fR \fR

+Instead of the standard display, show statistics indicating the performance of
+the packet compression algorithm in use.
