(CSLIP) VanJacobsen TCP header compression. Aversion of SLIP using compression. CSLIP has no effect onthe data portion of the packet and has nothing to do withcompression by modem. It does reduce the TCP header from40 bytes to 7 bytes, a noticeable difference when doingtelnet with lots of little packets. CSLIP has no effect onUDP, only TCP.
