Starting Compression
The quickest way to begin using data compression on your network is to enable it
with the default values that Bay Networks software supplies. The procedures in
this chapter describe how.
Preparing a Configuration File
Before you can start data compression, you must:
1.
Create and save a configuration file that has at least one WAN interface.
2.
Retrieve the configuration file in local, remote, or dynamic mode.
3.
Specify router hardware if this is a local mode configuration file.
Configuring Software Compression
Software compression works on all router platforms and all serial interfaces. You
can use software compression with Frame Relay, PPP, or X.25.
To configure software compression:
1.
Select the link or net module connector on which you are enabling data
compression.
2.
Specify Frame Relay, PPP, or X.25 as the WAN protocol.
For further information about these steps, refer to
Configuring Routers
.
Site Manager Path:
From the Protocols window that appears after you
select the link or net module, select PPP, Frame Relay, or X.25. Click on
OK. The Select Protocols window appears.
