ppp compression
For info, here is the reference for the compression control protocol
which has been mentioned recently.
Our experience with IPSEC protocols over classic 28.8k dialup PPP
links suggests that payload compression is a must.

A Revised Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories. This draft is a work item of the Point-to-Point Protocol
Extensions Working Group of the IETF.
Note: This revision reflects comments received during the last call period.
Title : PPP Stac LZS Compression Protocol
Author(s) : R. Friend, W. Simpson
Filename : draft-ietf-pppext-stacker-07.txt
Pages : 14
Date : 05/22/1996
The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) [1] provides a standard method for
transporting multi-protocol datagrams over point-to-point links.
The PPP Compression Control Protocol [2] provides a method to negotiate and
utilize compression protocols over PPP encapsulated links.
This document describes the use of the Stac LZS data compression algorithm,
with single or multiple compression histories, for compressing
PPP encapsulated packets.

Send a message to: mailserv@ds.internic.net. In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-pppext-stacker-07.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ds.internic.net can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e., documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
For questions, please mail to Internet-Drafts@cnri.reston.va.us.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version
of the Internet-Draft.
