A couple of our customers are using bsd boxes to connect to us via ppp. They are complaining that since we've changed to 3com equipment their connections are slower, because the hiper-arc will not negoiate compression control protocol with them. I have looked into this and it seems that the hiper-arc only knows 3 types of compression: Ascend, Stack and Microsoft. Is this true, or is there a hidden command within the hiper-arc to enable more of the ppp rfc compression protocols?
No, those are the only three compression protocols that the Arc (and the NETServer, if anyone is still running those) will support. -- Jeff McAdams Email: jeffm@iglou.com Head Network Administrator Voice: (502) 966-3848 IgLou Internet Services (800) 436-4456 - To unsubscribe to usr-tc, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe usr-tc" in the body of the message.
