Compressed SLIP (CSLIP, otherwise known as VanJacobsen TCP header compression) is a version of SLIP using header compression. CSLIP has no effect on the data portion of the packet and has nothing to do with compression by modem. It does reduce the TCP header from 40 bytes to seven bytes. CSLIP has no effect on UDP, only TCP.
