IAGNOSIS

DHCP: Relay Agent

The CyberSWITCH does not have Compression ENABLED

In this case, the CyberSWITCH will respond to all attempts by the peer to open CCP with

a TERM-ACK frame. The connection will operate uncompressed. (Note: a device that
supports compression but has it disabled will typically do the exact same thing).
