WCP Interface Parameter Descriptions
Use the following descriptions as guidelines when you configure the WCP
interface parameters.
Parameter: Enable
Default: Enable
Options: Enable | Disable
Function: Enables or disables data compression on the circuit.
Instructions: WCP automatically sets this parameter to Enable when you select WCP in
the Select Protocols window. If you want to temporarily disable WCP
rather than delete it from the platform, set this parameter to Disable. Reset
it to Enable to re-enable WCP.
MIB Object ID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.4.22.2.1.2
Parameter: Compression Mode
Default: Inherit from Line
Options: Continuous Packet | Packet by Packet | Inherit from Line
Function: Indicates the compression mode on the circuit.
Continuous Packet Compression (CPC) retains compression history
across packets and allows a higher compression ratio than does Packet-
by-Packet Compression (PPC).
PPC resets compression history at the start of each packet, resulting in a
lower compression ratio. Since PPC does not depend on previous packets,
you should select this option for a link that drops a large number of
packets.
Inherit from Line allows you to set WCP parameters at the line level and
apply them to circuits. For PPP, with only one circuit per line, this means
that you can configure WCP at either the circuit level or the line level.
Instructions: Select Inherit from Line if you want to accept the value in effect for the
WCP Compression Mode line parameter. Otherwise, select either
Continuous Packet or Packet by Packet.
