On a Verify event, only record 1 is used. The event type is CDR VERIFY. No data is filled in for the
Remote Device Name field or the Port field.
The following is an example verify event report:

Compression allows the CyberSWITCH to compress outgoing data and decompress incoming
data. This allows user devices on the WAN to initiate a connection to the system over the switched
digital network and transmit and receive compressed data, thereby increasing the amount of data
that can be transmitted over the line and decreasing the transmission time.

1. Select Compression Options from the options menu. The following menu will be displayed:
2. Select option 1 and follow the onscreen instructions to enable compression on a system-wide
basis. If enabled, the system will negotiate compression with remote devices per their
individual device configuration. If disabled, the system will not negotiate compression with
any remote device.
3. Select option 2 and follow the onscreen instructions to either enable or disable per-device
compression. This defines the initial value for the per-device state when a new device is added
to the on-node device table. Or, if the device is authenticated via an off node server, the device
will be given its compression enable/disable state based on this value when no value is
delivered by the off-node database.
4. Option 3 is only applicable when using PPP compression with the STAC-LZS protocol. This
allows you to change the starting PPP STAC-LZS sequence number for devices that do not have
the starting sequence of 1.

You may enable or disable the compression subsystem status. This option provides enable/disable
control over the entire compression subsystem within the system. If this option is enabled, the
system will negotiate compression with remote devices per their individual
device compression
