Abstract:
This document describes the potential benefits when applications
enable Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN). It outlines the
principal gains in terms of increased throughput, reduced delay and
other benefits when ECN is used over network paths that include
equipment that supports ECN-marking. It also identifies some
potential problems that might occur when ECN is used. The document
does not propose new algorithms that may be able to use ECN or
describe the details of implementation of ECN in endpoint devices,
routers and other network devices.
