  2. Transmission Control Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_Control_Protocol

    It is also possible to terminate the connection by a 3-way handshake, when host A sends a FIN and host B replies with a FIN & ACK (combining two steps into one) and host A replies with an ACK. [33] Some operating systems, such as Linux and HP-UX, [citation needed] implement a half-duplex close sequence. If the host actively closes a connection ...

  3. Handshake (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handshake_(computing)

    Handshaking is a technique of communication between two entities. However, within TCP/IP RFCs, the term "handshake" is most commonly used to reference the TCP three-way handshake. For example, the term "handshake" is not present in RFCs covering FTP or SMTP. One exception is Transport Layer Security, TLS, setup, FTP RFC 4217.

  4. SYN flood - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SYN_flood

    The three-way handshake is correctly performed. SYN Flood. The attacker (Mallory, green) sends several packets but does not send the "ACK" back to the server. The connections are hence half-opened and consuming server resources. Legitimate user Alice (purple) tries to connect, but the server refuses to open a connection, a denial of service.

  5. Wireshark - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireshark

    Wireshark is very similar to tcpdump, but has a graphical front-end and integrated sorting and filtering options.. Wireshark lets the user put network interface controllers into promiscuous mode (if supported by the network interface controller), so they can see all the traffic visible on that interface including unicast traffic not sent to that network interface controller's MAC address.

  6. Multipath TCP - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multipath_TCP

    Multipath TCP is particularly useful in the context of wireless networks; [2] using both Wi-Fi and a mobile network is a typical use case. [3] In addition to the gains in throughput from inverse multiplexing, links may be added or dropped as the user moves in or out of coverage without disrupting the end-to-end TCP connection. [4]

  7. Autonegotiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonegotiation

    In this process, the connected devices first share their capabilities regarding these parameters and then choose the highest-performance transmission mode they both support. Autonegotiation for twisted pair is defined in clause 28 of IEEE 802.3. [1] and was originally an optional component in the Fast Ethernet standard. [2]

  8. Cipher suite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cipher_suite

    This selection process occurs during the TLS Handshake Protocol. TLS 1.3 includes a TLS Handshake Protocol that differs compared to past and the current version of TLS/SSL. After coordinating which cipher suite to use, the server and the client still have the ability to change the coordinated ciphers by using the ChangeCipherSpec protocol in ...

  9. TCP Fast Open - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TCP_Fast_Open

    In computer networking, TCP Fast Open (TFO) is an extension to speed up the opening of successive Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) connections between two endpoints. It works by using a TFO cookie (a TCP option), which is a cryptographic cookie stored on the client and set upon the initial connection with the server. [1]
