PPP / SLIP / Modem Parameters (continued)
Support PPP
If you have one or more PPP networks with serial UART device drivers, check this box
to force inclusion of the PPP Network Driver in the KwikNet Library. Otherwise, leave
this box unchecked.
Link Quality Monitoring
Check this box to enable use of the Link Quality Protocol for monitoring the quality of
the serial communication link. Otherwise, leave this box unchecked.
IP Header Compression
The
KwikNet PPP option supports two forms of IP header compression which can improve
transfer times over serial links if large numbers of small packets are being transferred.
Van Jacobson (VJ) Compression is a technique for compressing TCP and IP headers.
RFC2507 describes the IP Header Compression (IPHC) protocol, an algorithm which is
not restricted for use with TCP datagrams.
Check one of the two radio buttons to select the IP header compression algorithm to be
used with PPP networks which permit IP header compression. The Van Jacobson
algorithm has the smaller memory footprint.
EAP Authentication
Check this box if any of your PPP networks must support the Extensible Authentication
Protocol (EAP) to negotiate authorized use of the serial link. Otherwise, leave this box
unchecked.
MS-CHAP Authentication
Check this box if any of your PPP networks must support the Microsoft Challenge-
Handshake Authentication Protocol (MS-CHAP) to negotiate authorized use of the serial
link. Otherwise, leave this box unchecked.
