68connection.

70.It Supports packet filtering.
71User can define four kinds of filters:

96While this is generally a good thing in most other situations, this
97higher speed data imposes a penalty on the system by increasing the
98number of serial interrupts the system has to process in talking to the
99modem and also increases latency. Unlike VJ-compression, Predictor-1
100compression pre-compresses
101.Em all
102data flowing through the link, thus reducing overhead to a minimum.

500This method differs in that it recommends the use of
501.Em mgetty+sendfax
502to handle the modem connections. The latest version 0.99
503can be compiled with the
504.Dq AUTO_PPP
505option to allow detection of clients speaking PPP to the login
506prompt.
507
508Follow these steps:
509
510.Bl -enum
511.It
512Get, configure, and install mgetty+sendfax v0.99 or later (beta)
