If you are using 2 Cisco devices then hdlc works great. I don't think it is
so much a matter of what is generally used as much as it depends on
preference or the requirement of a certain feature. PPP is used if you have
a Cisco router and another vendors router, or if you prefer PPP for some
reason, such as authentication or multilink. Not really sure what you mean
when you say interchangeable, if you mean can one side be hdlc and one ppp,
no, both sides have to be the same encapsulation.

Real-world question - on a typical point-to-point T1,
is not the default HDLC encapsulation generally used?
There seems to be school of thought that says PPP is
the way to go. In commons scenarios, are these 2 interchangeable?
