Abstract:
This memo provides an experimental update to RFC3168. It updates the
TCP sender-side reaction to a congestion notification received via
Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN). The updated method reduces
cwnd by a smaller amount than TCP does in reaction to loss. The
intention is to achieve good throughput when the queue at the
bottleneck is smaller than the bandwidth-delay-product of the
connection. This is more likely when an Active Queue Management
(AQM) mechanism has used ECN to CE-mark a packet, than when a packet
was lost. Future versions of this document will discuss SCTP as well
as other transports using ECN.
