IP routing

D 'class' (default): The network mask used in the RIP packet is derived 
directly from the IP address class, i.e. the following network masks are 
used for the network classes:
D 'address': The network mask is derived from the first bit that is set in 
the IP address entered. This and all high-order bits within the network 
mask are set. Thus, for example, the address 127.128.128.64 yields 
the IP network mask 255.255.255.192.
D 'class + address': The network mask is formed from the IP address 
class and a part attached after the address procedure. Thus, the 
above-mentioned address and the network mask 255.255.0.0 yield the 
IP network mask 255.128.0.0.
Note: Routers with RIP capabilities dispatch the RIP packets approximately 
every 30 seconds.The router is only set up to send and receive RIPs if it 
has a unique IP address.The IP RIP module is deselected in the default 
setting using the IP address xxx.xxx.xxx.254.
11.2.5 SYN/ACK speedup
The SYN/ACK speedup method is used to accelerate IP data traffic. With 
SYN/ACK speedup IP check characters (SYN for synchronization and ACK 
for acknowledge) a given preference within the transmission buffer over sim-
ple data packets. This prevents the situation that check characters remain in 
the transmission queue for a longer time and the remote station stop sending 
data as a result. 
The greatest effect occurs with SYN/ACK speedup with fast connections (e. 
g. ADSL) when data quantities are simultaneously transferred in both direc-
tions at high speed.
The SYN/ACK speedup is activated at the factory.
Class A 255.0.0.0
Class B 255.255.0.0
Class C 255.255.255.0
