Title : TCP Extended Data Offset Option
Authors : Joe Touch
Wesley M. Eddy
Filename : draft-ietf-tcpm-tcp-edo-01.txt
Pages : 19
Date : 2014-10-13
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 that have evolved. This document updates RFC 793
with an optional TCP extension to that space to support the use of
multiple large options such as SACK with either TCP Multipath or TCP
AO. It also explains why the initial SYN of a connection cannot be
extending a single segment.
