+.B record \fIfilename
+Specifies that pppd should record all characters sent and received to
+a file named \fIfilename\fR.  This file is opened in append mode,
+using the user's user-ID and permissions.  This option is implemented
+using a pseudo-tty and a process to transfer characters between the
+pseudo-tty and the real serial device, so it will increase the latency
+and CPU overhead of transferring data over the ppp interface.  The
+characters are stored in a tagged format with timestamps, which can be
+displayed in readable form using the pppdump(8) program.
