Description

This attribute determines whether the Adaptive Internet Protocol compresses commands for transmission.

Choose Adjust Dynamically (--compression automatic) to allow compression to be turned on or off at any stage, according to the network conditions.

With some applications, compression incurs a greater overhead than transmitting commands uncompressed. You should turn off compression for these applications.
