Hi.

The traffic you see is generated by the peer.
The peer sends LCP (Link Control Protocol) echo-request packets
to your machine and your machine replies back with an echo-reply
packets.

This traffic is optional (used for debugging or performance
monitoring, etc...), but once one peer receives an echo-request
it **MUST** reply back with an echo-reply.

Regards.
