Exact, but that's the idea behind this two states of a ppp "interface" anyway:
1) it's first opened
2) link negociation protocols (LCP, NCP, and sub-protocols like CHAP lies there)
3) it's going up, eventually :-)
4) ppp frames are sent/received, until...
5) it's going down (and closed, obvioulsy).
