Additional Compression Profiles
The RFC 3095 defines a generic compression mechanism. It may be extended by defining new compression profiles dedicated to specific protocol headers. New RFCs were published to compress new protocols:
- The RFC 3843 defines a compression profile for IP headers or IP tunnels,
- The RFC 4019 defines a compression profile for IP/UDP-Lite and IP/UDP-Lite/RTP headers,
- The RFC 6846 defines a compression profile for IP/TCP headers.

Famous quotes containing the words additional and/or compression:
“The mere existence of an additional child or children in the family could signify Less. Less time alone with parents. Less attention for hurts and disappointments. Less approval for accomplishments. . . . No wonder children struggle so fiercely to be first or best. No wonder they mobilize all their energy to have more or most. Or better still, all.”
—Adele Faber (20th century)
“Do they [the publishers of Murphy] not understand that if the book is slightly obscure it is because it is a compression and that to compress it further can only make it more obscure?”
—Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)
