- I currently attach via SLIP over a leased line using v.32bis/v.42bis
- modems from a Dell machine (on my end) into a smartport on a Telebit Netblazer.
-
- Would I see any significant increase in throughput using this same
- physical connection (v.32bis/v.42bis) but replacing the Dell SLIP
- with a Netblazer on my end -- and connecting my machines via ethernet
- to the Netblazer?
-
- I assume this would give me the ability to support PPP/CSLIP since
- my connection would be Netblazer-Netblazer -- what would PPP buy me
- over traditional SLIP (our feed is basically for smtp/nntp traffic,
- with ftps,telnets,rlogins used infrequently)..
