Title : TCP Response to Lower-Layer Connectivity-Change Indications
Author(s) : S. Schuetz, et al.
Filename : draft-schuetz-tcpm-tcp-rlci-00.txt
Pages : 23

When connectivity characteristics between two hosts change abruptly,
TCP can experience significant delays before resuming transmission in
an efficient manner or TCP can behave unfairly to competing traffic.
This document describes TCP extensions that improve transmission
behavior in response to advisory, lower-layer connectivity-change
indications. The proposed TCP extensions modify the local behavior
of TCP and introduce a new TCP option to signal local connectivity-
change indications to remote peers. Performance gains result from a
more efficient transmission behavior and are not due to an increased
aggressiveness.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
