Title : TCP Extended Data Offset Option
Authors : Joe Touch
Wesley M. Eddy
Filename : draft-ietf-tcpm-tcp-edo-05.txt
Pages : 23
Date : 2016-04-25
Abstract:
TCP segments include a Data Offset field to indicate space for TCP
options but the size of the field can limit the space available for
complex options such as SACK and Multipath TCP and can limit the
combination of such options supported in a single connection. This
document updates RFC 793 with an optional TCP extension to that
space to support the use of multiple large options. It also explains
why the initial SYN of a connection cannot be extending a single
segment.
