This allows user devices on the WAN to initiate a connection to the system over the switcheddigital network and transmit and receive compressed data, thereby increasing the amount of datathat can be transmitted over the line and decreasing the transmission time.CONFIGURING COMPRESSION O PTIONSU SING CFGEDIT1.

If enabled, the system will negotiate compression with remote devices per theirindividual device configuration. If disabled, the system will not negotiate compression withany remote device.3. Select option 2 and follow the onscreen instructions to either enable or disable per-devicecompression. This defines the initial value for the per-device state when a new device is addedto the on-node device table. Or, if the device is authenticated via an off node server, the devicewill be given its compression enable/disable state based on this value when no value isdelivered by the off-node database.4.
