Re: Maximum Advertised Window in TCP-Reno (Cont'd)



Hi,

    I think window_ is the maximum 'flow control' window, but cwnd_ is the
'congestion' window. Congestion window will keep growing as long as the
sending TCP keep getting ACK without lost. But the actual transmitted
traffic will also be limited by maximum 'flow control' window (or receiver's
advertised window).

Peerapol.
