Title : On the generation of TCP timestamps
Author(s) : F. Gont
Filename : draft-gont-tcpm-tcp-timestamps-00.txt
Pages : 8
Date : 2008-10-27
This document describes an algorithm for selecting the timestamps (TS
value) used for TCP connections that use the TCP timestamp option,
such that the resulting timestamps are monotonically-increasing
across connections that involve the same four-tuple {local IP
address, local TCP port, remote IP address, remote TCP port}. The
properties of the algorithm are such the possibility of an attacker
guessing the exact value is reduced. Additionally, it describes an
algorithm for processing incoming SYN segments to allow a higher
connection establishment rates to any TCP end-point.
