Abstract: In the present implementation of Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) selective acknowledgment (SACK), every SACK block needs 8 bytes to carry information about the received packets, back to the sender. Since TCP Options field has a fixed length, there is a limit on the number of SACK block that can be carded by the acknowledgment packets. Under some error conditions, this limitation can force the TCP sender to retransmit packets that have already been received successfully by the receiver. This ... (Update)
