Were both sides compressing originally and then you made it passive?

According to CCO:
"When IP maps at both ends of a connection inherit passive compression,
the connection will never transfer compressed traffic because neither
side will generate a packet with a compressed header."

Subject: RTP/TCP header compression

While putting tcp header compression in PASSIVE mode on BOTH sides of
the Frame Relay interface, compression was still occuring. I was under
the impression that one side had to be active and on had to be passive.
If both sides are waiting for an compress packet in passive mode, they
will never receive one. But the output shows different. If anyone can
provide some insight on this I will be greatful.
