IP Header Compression over PPP
RFC 3544, “IP Header Compression over PPP”, is a Proposed Standard document published in July 2003 by T. Koren, S. Casner, C. Bormann. It obsoletes RFC 2509. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document describes an option for negotiating the use of header compression on IP datagrams transmitted over the Point-to-Point Protocol (RFC 1661). It defines extensions to the PPP Control Protocols for IPv4 and IPv6 (RFC 1332, RFC 2472). Header compression may be applied to IPv4 and IPv6 datagrams in combination with TCP, UDP and RTP transport protocols as specified in RFC 2507, RFC 2508 and RFC 3545. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
