Compression allows the CyberSWITCH to compress outgoing data and decompress incoming data. This allows user devices on the WAN to initiate a connection to the system over the switched digital network and transmit and receive compressed data, thereby increasing the amount of data that can be transmitted over the line and decreasing the transmission time.

CONFIGURING COMPRESSION OPTIONS

USING CFGEDIT

1.Select Compression Options from the options menu. The following menu will be displayed:

Compression Options Menu:

1)Compression Subsystem (Enable/Disable)

2)Default Per-Device Compression setting (Enable/Disable)

3)Starting PPP STAC-LZS Sequence Number

Select function from above or <RET> for previous menu:

2.Select option 1 and follow the onscreen instructions to enable compression on a system-wide basis. If enabled, the system will negotiate compression with remote devices per their individual device configuration. If disabled, the system will not negotiate compression with any remote device.

3.Select option 2 and follow the onscreen instructions to either enable or disable per-device compression. This defines the initial value for the per-device state when a new device is added to the on-node device table. Or, if the device is authenticated via an off node server, the device will be given its compression enable/disable state based on this value when no value is delivered by the off-node database.

4.Option 3 is only applicable when using PPP compression with the STAC-LZS protocol. This allows you to change the starting PPP STAC-LZS sequence number for devices that do not have the starting sequence of 1.
