Methods and apparatus for permitting a host system such as a general-purpose computer to communicate over a network with a remote peer where the host system does not provide native network protocol support for protocols required by the network elements, such as a remote router or bridge. Such protocol support is provided by spoofing modules that emulate a network protocol negotiation between the host system and the remote router and perform packet header translation between the headers supported by the host system (e.g., PPP), and the headers supported by the network, such as RFC 1483.
