In ClientWebSocket Class how to set up Compression?
Does we have to set the header "Sec-WebSocket-Extensions" manually for compression?
Does the SendAync() method compresses before sending or it has to be compressed manually before sending?
And in similar lines ReceiveAsync() will have compressed one or actual content?

As compression adds a security risk (CRIME/BREACH) it is not the default. You must enable manually.

I am not sending any sensitive information . Need help in detail steps in enabling compression
you enable server compression with:
using (var webSocket = await context.WebSockets.AcceptWebSocketAsync(
new WebSocketAcceptContext
{
DangerousEnableCompression = true
}))
{
}
