Thus spake Scott Kupferschmidt
At work we have a 3com/USR Total Control NETserver.. fully populated with 12 quad cards (48 modems). I am using RADIUS for authentication and all, but I'm wondering if there's a way to know or check to see if it supports STAC compression on the ISDN at all or not. If so I'd really like to know howto turn it on.
set ccp on
This is default, so it should be on already.
For the curious, we are using Cistron radiusd, and which I don't know how to make it use/recognize the STAC compression if it's available. Also, how do you turn on / check for regular tcp header compression? The reason why I ask is at home I have my Cisco 1004 dialing in (at 128kbps) and when I tell it to use compression.. it just rejects it on the NETserver from what my debugging tells me.
Here's the kicker...the NETServer (and I believe the Arc does this as well) will only negotiate CCP if it believes it has enough CPU horsepower to be able to do it without adverse affects. Because the thing only has a 486 processor, if it has a lot of calls on it, it will reject CCP in order to conserve the processor for normal packet processing.
