I just recently got a Telebit T2500 and I have some questions about what
certain things are. I know that PEP is it's own protocol and that compression
is a modification of the data. I know that MNP goes on top of Bell and
V.2[12] modes. I know V.32 is it's own thing and I think MNP can be used in
conjunction with it. I guess my question is really: What are V.42 and LAP-M?
Are they used in conjunction with V.32 or do they replace it??  My first
choice response would be a book I can buy that explains all this type of
stuff. I understand how PEP handles the multi-carrier transmission, but I
would like a technical explanation of V.[34]2 and LAP-M.

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

EBD
