  2. Transmission Control Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_Control_Protocol

    A Simplified TCP State Diagram. TCP protocol operations may be divided into three phases. Connection establishment is a multi-step handshake process that establishes a connection before entering the data transfer phase. After data transfer is completed, the connection termination closes the connection and releases all allocated resources.

    It then acknowledges the congestion indication by sending a segment with the CWR bit set. A node keeps transmitting TCP segments with the ECE bit set until it receives a segment with the CWR bit set. To see affected packets with tcpdump, use the filter predicate (tcp[13] & 0xc0 != 0).

  4. Maximum segment size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_segment_size

    The default TCP Maximum Segment Size is for IPv4 is 536. For IPv6 it is 1220. [1]: §3.7.1 Where a host wishes to set the maximum segment size to a value other than the default, the maximum segment size is specified as a TCP option, initially in the TCP SYN packet during the TCP handshake. The value cannot be changed after the connection is ...

  5. Protocol data unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protocol_data_unit

    The Layer 4: transport layer PDU is the segment or the datagram. The Layer 3: network layer PDU is the packet. The Layer 2: data link layer PDU is the frame. The Layer 1: physical layer PDU is the bit or, more generally, symbol. Given a context pertaining to a specific OSI layer, PDU is sometimes used as a synonym for its representation at that ...

    IP was the connectionless datagram service in the original Transmission Control Program introduced by Vint Cerf and Bob Kahn in 1974, which was complemented by a connection-oriented service that became the basis for the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). The Internet protocol suite is therefore often referred to as TCP/IP.

  8. Nagle's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nagle's_algorithm

    If the data in a single write spans 2n packets, where there are 2n-1 full-sized TCP segments followed by a partial TCP segment, the original Nagle algorithm would withhold the last packet, waiting for either more data to send (to fill the packet), or the ACK for the previous packet (indicating that all the previous packets have left the network).

  9. Internet protocol suite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_protocol_suite

    The Internet protocol suite, commonly known as TCP/IP, is a framework for organizing the set of communication protocols used in the Internet and similar computer networks according to functional criteria.
