Use the Configuration | Routing | Routes page (Figure D-1) to enable or disable Header and
Payload Compression operation when operating in Router Mode.
When operating in Bridge Point-to-Multipoint (BPM) Mode, use the Bridged Point-to-Multipoint
Configuration on the Compression Configuration Page. This will enable and disable the Header
and Payload compression for the entire Transmit path.
When enabled, the CDM-840 automatically identifies supported packets for Header
Compression. The only configurable settings are the Header and Payload Compression Refresh
Rates.
Header and Payload Compression is independent from QoS. The enabling or
disabling of this feature is required only on the sending Comtech EF Data VSAT
products (CDM-840, CTOG-250, or standalone CDM-800). The need to Header and
Payload Decompress incoming packets on the CDM-840 or CDD-880 is automatic
and transparent to the user.

Use the Configuration | Compression page (Figure D-2) to define the Header and Payload
Compression Refresh Rates. These settings control how many compressed header packets are
sent before a single full header packet is sent.
