Abstract:
A number of TCP enhancements in so diverse fields as congestion
control, loss recovery or side-band signaling could be improved by
allowing both ends of a TCP session to interpret the value carried in
the Timestamp option. Further enhancements are enabled by changing
the receiver side processing of timestamps in the presence of
Selective Acknowledgements.
This documents updates RFC1323 and specifies a backwards compatible
way of negotiating for Timestamp capabilities, and lists a number of
benefits and drawbacks of this approach.
