CCP (Compression Control Protocol) is a NCP that is negotiated after the
user has been authenticated. IP and IPX would also be negotiated at this
phase. For an analog user this feature does not help since the data is
generally already compressed by v.42bis. If the PM were to negotiate CCP
it would detect that the data is already compressed and not try any
further. The customer should disable this compression in his settings on
his client (not his modem). If CCP does not negotiate the rest of the PPP
negotiation should continue as normal.

NBNS is netbios nameserver and is sometimes used to pass information about
the wins server. This is harmless.
