You might also be interested in this: Volvo Technology just released an
early development release of their open source PPP code for lwIP:

Lawrence Chitty also has some links about PPP that could be useful:

Personally, I found the first edition of Jeremy Bentham's "TCP/IP Lean"
book quite dissapointing. I had definately expected more, as the author
has posted quite a few insightful posts to comp.arch.embedded. I didn't
think that the book provided any deeper insights into the protocols and
tradeoffs involved, unfortunately.

A better book on TCP/IP is Steven's "TCP/IP Illustrated Volume 1". It is
really good and very extensive, although a bit dated in a few areas.

I don't know if this is worth much, but I did myself write some
introductory text on TCP/IP as part of my master's thesis:

Finally, for TCP/IP in smallish systems, this could perhaps be of
interest:
