Title : IP Payload Compression Using ITU-T V.44 Packet Method
Author(s) : J. Heath, J. Border
Filename : draft-heath-ipcomp-v44-01.txt
Pages : 7
Date : 10-Nov-00
This document describes a compression method based on the data
compression algorithm described in ITU-T Recommendation V.44 [V44].
Recommendation V.44 is a modem standard but Annex B, Clause B.1, of
the recommendation describes the implementation of V.44 in packet
networks (e.g. V.44 Packet Method). This document defines the the
application of V.44 Packet Method to the IP Payload Compression
Protocol [RFC-2393]. [RFC-2393] defines a method for applying
lossless compression to the payload portion of Internet Protocol
datagrams.
V.44 Packet Method is based upon the LZJH data compression
algorithm. Thoughout the remainder of this document the terms V.44
Packet Method and LZJH are synonomous.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org 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.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
