+.Sh NAME
+.Nm ng_pred1
+.Nd Predictor-1 PPP compression (RFC 1978) netgraph node type
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In sys/types.h
+.In netgraph/ng_pred1.h
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm pred1
+node type implements the Predictor-1 sub-protocols of the Compression Control 
+Protocol (CCP).
+.Pp
+The node has two hooks,
+.Va comp
+for compression and
+.Va decomp
+for decompression.
+Only one of them can be connected at the same time, specifying node's
+operation mode.
+Typically that hooks would be connected to the
+.Xr ng_ppp 4
+node type hook of the same name.
+.Sh HOOKS
+This node type supports the following hooks:
+.Pp
+.Bl -tag -compact -width decomp
+.It Va comp
+Connection to
+.Xr ng_ppp 4
+.Va compress
+hook.
+Incoming frames are compressed and sent back out the same hook.
+.It Va decomp
+Connection to
+.Xr ng_ppp 4
+.Va decompress
+hook.
+Incoming frames are decompressed and sent back out the same hook.
+.El
+.Pp
+Only one hook can be connected at the same time,
+specifying node's operation mode.
+.Sh CONTROL MESSAGES
+This node type supports the generic control messages, plus the following:
+.Bl -tag -width foo
+.It Dv NGM_PRED1_CONFIG Pq Li config
+This command resets and configures the node for a session
+(i.e., for compression or decompression).
+This command takes a
+.Vt "struct ng_pred1_config"
+as an argument:
+.Bd -literal -offset 0n
+struct ng_pred1_config {
+	u_char		enable;			/* node enabled */
+};
+.Ed
+The
+.Ft enable
+field enables traffic flow through the node.
+.It Dv NGM_PRED1_RESETREQ Pq Li resetreq
+This message contains no arguments, and is bi-directional.
+If an error is detected during decompression, this message is sent by the
+node to the originator of the
+.Dv NGM_PRED1_CONFIG
+message that initiated the session.
+The receiver should respond by sending a PPP CCP Reset-Request to the peer.
+.Pp
+This message may also be received by this node type when a CCP Reset-Request
+or Reset-Ack is received by the local PPP entity.
+The node will respond by flushing its compression state so the sides 
+can resynchronize.
+.It Dv NGM_PRED1_GET_STATS Pq Li getstats
+This control message obtains statistics for a given hook.
+The statistics are returned in
+.Vt "struct ng_pred1_stats" :
+.Bd -literal
+struct ng_pred1_stats {
+	uint64_t	FramesPlain;
+	uint64_t	FramesComp;
+	uint64_t	FramesUncomp;
+	uint64_t	InOctets;
+	uint64_t	OutOctets;
+	uint64_t	Errors;
+};
+.Ed
+.It Dv NGM_PRED1_CLR_STATS Pq Li clrstats
+This control message clears statistics for a given hook.
+.It Dv NGM_PRED1_GETCLR_STATS Pq Li getclrstats
+This control message obtains and clears statistics for a given hook.
+.El
+.Sh SHUTDOWN
+This node shuts down upon receipt of a
+.Dv NGM_SHUTDOWN
+control message, or when hook have been disconnected.

+.Sh BUGS
+Due to nature of netgraph PPP implementation there are possible race conditions
+between data packet and ResetAck CCP packet in case of packet loss. As result, 
+packet loss can produce bigger performance degradation than supposed by protocol.
