[comp.dcom.sys.cisco] Data commpression on serial lines

stigall@silver.ucs.indiana.edu (john stigall) (02/05/91)

We're considering some data compression bridges for our cisco serial
lines as a way to get more from our bandwidth. Anybody out there doing
the same thing? Any plans in cisco to do this in the router? The boxes
we are considering is the Microcom LAN Bridge with 4:1 compression. We
would have a separate Ethernet to tie the bridge to the cisco, and
are routing DECNET, IP, and plan to route IPX.
