Data Compression Overview

2-15
The backup circuit can inherit the primary circuit’s configuration, or it can use its
own. When the frame relay primary and backup use the same configuration, they
have a
shared
configuration. The backup circuit uses the same network layer
address as the primary circuit. The data link layer configuration, that is, the
backup PVCs, data link connection identifiers (DLCIs), and filters, can be the
same or different from the primary.
If the backup uses a unique configuration, it is a
secondary
configuration. A
secondary configuration uses a different network layer address, PVCs, and filters
from the primary.
To use data compression with frame relay dial backup, you must configure
compression on both the primary and the backup circuit. The backup circuit does
not necessarily inherit the PVC configuration from the primary circuit, because
the backup PVCs can have different configurations from the primary.

X.25 Services
An X.25 network permits as many as 128 VCs to exist on the same physical link at
the same time. You can configure each of these interfaces individually to use data
compression or not.
X.25 PDN and DDN Services
When you use data compression on circuits that you configure for X.25 Public
Data Network (PDN) or Defense Department Network (DDN) services, you must
enable compression on both sides of the link. If you configure compression on
only one side of a PDN or DDN link, the data that travels over that link will be
corrupted.
You must also remember to enable the X.25 service record compression parameter
for each X.25 interface that you configure. For more information about this
parameter, see
