Editing Data Compression Parameters
This chapter provides information about customizing data compression
parameters for the Frame Relay, X.25, or PPP interfaces you configure.
For each WCP parameter, this chapter gives the default setting, valid parameter
options, the parameter function, instructions for setting the parameter, and the
Management Information Base (MIB) object ID. With the exception of the Engine
Type and Fallback Compression Mode parameters, these parameters apply to both
software- and hardware-based compression. The Engine Type and Fallback
Compression Mode parameters apply to hardware-based compression only.
The Technician Interface allows you to modify parameters by issuing set and
commit commands with the MIB object ID. This process is equivalent to
modifying parameters using Site Manager. For more information about using the
Technician Interface to access the MIB, refer to Using Technician Interface
Software.
After you enable compression, you can edit all data compression parameters from
the Configuration Manager window (Figure 4-1). Refer to Configuring Routers or
Configuring Customer Access (BNX Software) for instructions on using Site
Manager to access this window. Then read the section that follows for the protocol
you are configuring.
Caution: The Technician Interface does not verify that the value you enter for
a parameter is valid. Entering an invalid value can corrupt your
configuration.
