This document describes an algorithm for processing incoming SYN
segments that allows higher connection-establishment rates between
any two TCP endpoints when a TCP Timestamps option is present in the
incoming SYN segment. This document only modifies processing of SYN
segments received for connections in the TIME-WAIT state; processing
in all other states is unchanged. This memo documents an Internet
Best Current Practice.
This document is a product of the TCP Maintenance and Minor Extensions Working Group of the IETF.
