Configuring BAP
To use BAP, you must configure bandwidth-on-demand service for single leased
lines, leased multilink bundles, or dial-on-demand circuits. Once you have set up
bandwidth-on-demand service, you can configure BAP. For configuration
instructions, see “Enabling BAP for Bandwidth-on-Demand Service” on
page 12-8.
You also need to set up a local phone list if your router is responsible for passing
phone numbers to its peer router to activate additional lines. To set up a local
phone list, see “Creating a Local Phone List (ISDN only)” page 13-22.
If you do not configure BAP for your bandwidth connections, the monitor router
adds bandwidth without negotiating with the non-monitor router.
Data Compression
You can configure one of two compression protocols over any PPP demand
circuit:
• Bay Networks proprietary data compression protocol, WCP
• Hi/fn LZS
Enabling compression improves bandwidth efficiency by eliminating redundant
strings in data streams. This, in turn, improves network response times and yields
line-cost savings.
To implement data compression, you select either WCP or Hi/fn LZS as one of the
protocols for the demand circuit. To configure protocols for the demand circuit,
see “Adding Protocols to PPP Demand Circuits” on page 10-8. Note that WCP
does not work with any other vendor’s compression protocol.
For more information about data compression, see Configuring Data Compression
Services.
