TCP Control Block Interdependence

Metadata

Publisher: IETF
Doc Type: Informational
Pages: 29
Abstract: This memo provides guidance to TCP implementers that is intended to help improve connection convergence to steady-state operation without affecting interoperability. It updates and replaces RFC 2140's description of sharing TCP state, as typically represented in TCP Control Blocks, among similar concurrent or consecutive connections.
