Optimizing

Although many optimization techniques can be used on a LAN or WAN, optimization is less an issue for a LAN because bandwidth is inexpensive. On a WAN, performance optimization is critical because WAN media use slower transmission speeds than LAN media.

Because the potential for performance improvement is greater for a WAN than for a LAN, this section focuses on techniques that you can use to optimize the performance of your PPP links.
