How does TCP detect congestion?
It don't control congestion that is up to the routers and gateways as they are the ones that look at the traffic and figure out the best way to send something over the internet.
How can you control the congestion in tcp?
The techniques include End-system flow control, Network congestion control, Network based congestion avoidance and Resource allocation.
What is tcp session?
A TCP session is a data transfer that takes place using the transmission control protocol. A session has three phases, connection establishment, data transmission, and connection termination.
What is TCP-friendly?
TCP-Friendly Rate Control (TFRC) is a congestion control mechanism designed for unicast flows operating in an Internet environment and competing with TCP traffic. The goal is to compete fairly with TCP traffic on medium timescales, but to be much less variable than TCP on short timescales.[wiki]
How does TCP try to avoid network meltdown?
No, TCP is responsible for reliable transport delivery. It doesn't know about network congestion (other than flow control caused by ICMP messages).
What mechanism is used by tcp to provide flow control?
the station window size the congestion window memory buffers receipt acknowledgement
Why is that the tcp's rfc has more pages and is more complex than udp's rfc?
Because TCP does far more things than UDP. UDP does not do flow control or congestion control or guarantee in-order and reliable packet delivery. TCP does all those things therefore it needs more functionality.
How does sctp differ from tcp?
SCTP is a protocol that has the ability to deliver functionality that is similar to TCP. Like TCP, an SCTP session can be configured to offer ordered, guaranteed, delivery with congestion control and a notion of a session. It differs in that it offers other features and has an implementation that is not directly compatible with TCP; both peers' network stacks and applications will also need to support SCTP.
How does TCP handel the flow control problem explain it with the help of a diagram showing the status window at the different stages?
Tcp is a transport layer protocol which provides end to end delivery in sequence of byte stream. It is a reliable connection oriented protocol. To provide the reliable and correct data tcp performs various function in which one is "Flow control". In flow control function tcp handle timeout and retransmission of missed/duplicate packets. Time out and retransmission is a function performed to handle the congestion.
Which three features allow TCP to reliably and accurately?
TCP has features that track transmission of data from the source to its destination. The features are flow control, numbering and sequencing, and session establishment.
Three common protocols to modern computer networks?
The main communication or network protocol is the TCP/IP protocol. (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol)
What is tcp server processes?
The process of a TCP server is to receive TCP connections and handling the data correctly. The letters TCP in TCP server stands for transmission control protocol.
