When I do a route print command and the routing table is displayed,
there are is an entry I don't understand. These entries have a
destination and mask of 255.255.255.255. What does this mean?

Thanks
 
That is your ALL BROADCAST route table entry. It basically is saying if a
packet is created with a source of 255.255.255.255 then send it out this
interface. you should have one entry like that for each interface on the
machine.
