IPC: H04L12/46
Filed: 2003-03-12
Abstract: According to one aspect of this invention, a method of controlling data flow in a
network device is discussed. An incoming data packet is received and an IP multicast
group number is determined from the incoming data packet. An IP multicast group
vector is determined from an. IP multicast group vector table using the IP multicast
group number. That IP multicast group vector is then used to obtain a series of VLAN
IDs from a VLAN ID table corresponding to bit positions defined by the IP multicast
group vector. The data packet is then replicated and forwarded onto each VLAN ID of
the series of VLAN IDs. A network for controlling data therein is also discussed.

Abstract: A slaked lime-based coating material composition which gives a
consideration to sick house syndrome is a powdery composition obtained by
mixing either calcium hydroxide or a calcium hydroxide/magnesium
hydroxide mixture with one or more carrageenans comprising a
six-membered-ring galactose skeleton and bonded thereto in equatorial
conformation a sulfate group(-OSO 3   - ) and a hydroxyl group(-OH) and
which is kneaded together with water at time of use, or a slaked lime-based
plastering material composition which gives a consideration to sick house
syndrome is a pasty slaked lime-based coating material composition
obtained by mixing either calcium hydroxide or a calcium
hydroxide/magnesium hydroxide mixture with one or more carrageenans
comprising a six-membered-ring galactose skeleton and bonded thereto in
equatorial conformation a sulfate group(-OSO 3   - ) and a hydroxyl group(-
OH), and which is kneaded together with water in advance. 
     The carrageenan has long been utilized in food additves so that the
carrageenan is highly safe. 
     Since the carrageenan is a water-soluble natural polysaccharide, it rapidly
dissolves on mixing with slaked lime and kneading with water. 
     The carrageenan further has excellent water holding, viscosity control and,
hence, excess water absorption into bases, e.g., walls, is prevented. The
compositions are improved in adhesive properties to bases, workability, and
water resistive properties.
