Tom:

CompressNET isn't an active product (protocol). It was a product
(protocol) that compressed TCP connections for WANs. It used one
port to send the compressed TCP connection data through; the other
was used for management of CompressNET (to obtain statistics and
also specify what should and should not be compressed).

I do have some information on the protocol (as provided to IANA a long
time ago) but I wasn't able to dig it up with my quick search. This
was very high level information; not a protocol specification.

If someone is interested, they can just get in touch with me. So,
you can leave the pointer to me.

Good luck with your project - it appears you're just getting started.
