This chapter describes special features of Bay Networks data compression.
Bay Networks Data Compression Features
Our data compression works over wide area network links running Frame Relay,
PPP, or X.25. It includes the following features:
• Compression for a FRE
®
module at 4 x 128 KB/s compressed throughput, full
duplex; or 512 KB/s aggregate compressed throughput
• Compression on an AN® platform at 2 x 64 KB/s compressed throughput, full
duplex; or 128 KB/s aggregate compressed throughput
• Compression on all intelligent link interface modules (ILIs) that support serial
and ISDN BRI ports
• Software compression support for all Bay Networks platforms: AN, ASN®,
and BN, plus VME
• Hardware compression support in an optional daughterboard for Frame Relay
and PPP networks that use the octal synchronous link module for the BN,
using FRE2 processors only.
• Compression configurable on a per-circuit or line basis
• Compression on MCT-1 and MCE-1 lines
• Compression on multiline and multilink
We do not support VJ header compression.
