OptionDescription

VJ Compression This determines whether Van Jacobson compression is used on this link; i.e. whether you are using SLIP or C-SLIP (compressed SLIP). The choices are ‘on’ (C-SLIP) or ‘off’ (SLIP); the default is ‘on’. Select ‘on’ will turn on VJ compression. C-SLIP greatly improves the performance of interactive traffic, such as Telnet or Rlogin; see Configuring a dial in line on page 74 for more information.

In the cli, example syntax would be: set slip li 1 vj on.

If your user is authenticated by the unit this VJ compression value will be overridden if you have set a ‘framed compression’ value for a user; see Configuring a user account on page 100, sub-section ‘framed compression’.

If your user is authenticated by RADIUS and the RADIUS parameter ‘Framed- Compression’ is set in the RADIUS file the unit will use the value in the RADIUS file in preference to the ‘VJ compression’ value configured here.

TX parameters Meaning Transmit parameters. This will output to the screen of the user all the SLIP parameters configured for that line/port. TX parameters are useful in some applications such as Trumpet Winsock. Options are ‘on’ or ‘off’.
