I just had one place where I was perhaps confused by the text, in Section 1: effectively doubles the amount of data that can be in flight, the maximum round-trip time (RTT) experience, and the path's effective RTT using the network path. I'm probably just misreading, but "the path's effective RTT using the network path" sounds odd with the two "paths" in there. Is the last one referring to the bottleneck part? |

Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2018-08-28. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract Active Queue Management (AQM) mechanisms allow for burst tolerance while enforcing short queues to minimise the time that packets spend enqueued at a bottleneck. This can cause noticeable performance degradation for TCP connections traversing such a bottleneck, especially if there are only a few flows or their bandwidth-delay- product is large. The reception of a Congestion Experienced (CE) ECN mark indicates that an AQM mechanism is used at the bottleneck, and therefore the bottleneck network queue is likely to be short. Feedback of this signal allows the TCP sender-side ECN reaction in congestion avoidance to reduce the Congestion Window (cwnd) by a smaller amount than the congestion control algorithm's reaction to inferred packet loss. This specification therefore defines an experimental change to the TCP reaction specified in RFC3168, as permitted by RFC 8311. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-tcpm-alternativebackoff-ecn/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-tcpm-alternativebackoff-ecn/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. |

Summary The document shepherd is Michael Tüxen . The responsible Area Director is Mirja Kühlewind . The recently published RFC 8311 (Relaxing Restrictions on Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) Experimentation) allows a TCP sender to react to an ECN signal in a different way than to a inferred loss signal if the behaviour is documented in an experimental RFC. This document describes such an experiment in which the reduction of the congestion window in response to an ECN signal is smaller than in response to an inferred packet loss. Therefore the TCPM working group requests publication as an experimental document. 2. Review and Consensus The document has been discussed several times in working group meetings without any major controversy. There were also no substantial problems reported during the working group last call and it is implemented for FreeBSD (the code has been committed to the FreeBSD code base). The risk of running this experiment is relatively low, since the reaction to a loss is not changed. There is very strong consensus in the TCPM working group that this document should be published. 3. Intellectual Property Each author has stated that their direct, personal knowledge of any IPR related to this document has already been disclosed, in conformance with BCPs 78 and 79. None of the authors is aware of any IPR related to this document. 4. Other Points None. |
