Abstract:
The goal of this document is to describe the potential benefits when
applications use a transport that enables Explicit Congestion
Notification (ECN). The document outlines the principal gains in
terms of increased throughput, reduced delay and other benefits when
ECN is used over a network path that includes equipment that supports
ECN-marking. It also discusses challenges for successful deployment
of ECN. It does not propose new algorithms to use ECN, nor does it
describe the details of implementation of ECN in endpoint devices
(Internet hosts), routers or other network devices.
