Enhancing TCP's Loss Recovery Using Limited Transmit

Metadata

Publisher: IETF
Doc Type: Standard
Pages: 9
Abstract: This document proposes a new Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) mechanism that can be used to more effectively recover lost segments when a connection's congestion window is small, or when a large number of segments are lost in a single transmission window. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
