Name
Description
Interface
The interface on which TCP header compressions is being applied
Active
Whether TCP header compression is active and working on this interface
Slots
The number of Rx and Tx slots. That is, the total number of TCP header compression connections supported on this interface.
Packets Sent
The number of compressed packets sent + the number of full headers sent
Bytes Saved
The total saving in bytes due to compression
Improvement Factor
