Configure Frame Relay 257
Perform the following configurations in interface view.
Table 296 Configure Frame Relay Compression on multipoint interface
By default, Frame Relay payload compression is disable.
On the 3Com Router, both the Frame Relay main interfaces and sub-interfaces can
be multipoint interfaces.
Enable/Disable TCP/IP
Header Compression on
Interfaces
Frame Relay supports TCP/IP header compression. Only when the packet format of
Frame Relay interface is
nonstandard , can TCP/IP header compression be
executed. TCP/IP header compression can be designated both on the interface and
on configuring static address mapping.
Perform the following task in synchronous interface view.
Table 297 Enable/Disable TCP/IP Header Compression on Interfaces
By default, interfaces use initiative compression.

Fragment (FRF.12)
1 Configure Frame Relay Fragment Attributes
When voice and data are transmitted concurrently, transmission of a large data
packet will occupy the bandwidth for a relatively long time. This will cause delay
and even drop of voice packets behind it, and hence degrade the voice quality. The
purpose of configuring Frame Relay fragmentation is to shorten voice delay and
ensure real-time voice transmission. After configuring fragmentation, large
packets will be fragmented into small data fragments. These smaller and less
delay-causing data fragments and the voice packets are interspersed for
transmission to ensure an even flow of voice packets into the networks.
