Dear all,

In the last meeting, we had quite strong interest in more detailed ECN feed=
back, and I therefore proposed the following milestone for the TCPM charter=
:

  "Sep 2013 	Submit document on more detailed ECN feedback in TCP to the IE=
SG for publication as an Experimental RFC"

Due to the recent IPR statement on related drafts (https://datatracker.ietf=
.org/ipr/1881/), the chairs want to verify that there is still strong inter=
est and support for that potential charter item.

Could you please send a short note if you are willing to work on that miles=
tone, by contributing text, reviewing drafts, evaluating/implementing mecha=
nisms, etc.?

Thanks

Michael (TCPM co-chair)

Hi Michael,

I'm biased (obviously), but yes. I'm trying to learn if the current draft (=
or extensions of it) can be implemented efficiently in hardware without bre=
aking fastpath processing. [I understand that current hw reverts to slowpat=
h as soon as any "uncommon" TCP or IP header bits like ECE/CWR or ECT/CE ar=
e present, diminishing throughput often below wirespeed].

Best regards,

Richard Scheffenegger

Hi,

It's time to start the agenda preparation for the upcoming meeting. =
After discussing this among the chairs, this time we thought to take a =
little different approach than earlier, trying to ensure enough =
discussion time for some of the important topics. The proposal is to =
pre-allocate our 2.5-hour meeting into following parts:

1. WG drafts (45 minutes)
2. More accurate ECN (30 minutes)
3. TCP Loss Probe / RTO Restart (30 minutes)
4. Other items (45 minutes)

For each part, we should aim for short presentations, to have enough =
time for discussion. Especially for the "Other items" presentation =
requests we'd like to see some mailing list traffic before deciding on a =
presentation slot. Any comments?

As before, please send your talk requests to chairs, including title, =
draft name, name of the speaker and time request, within the next couple =
of weeks.

- Pasi

I like it!
Indeed RTO restart has undergone / is undergoing quite some changes...  
I'll be the one presenting our update.

Cheers,
Michael

Good to hear that.

In addition to short updates of recent changes on both of the drafts, we =
as a WG should decide how to proceed with addressing the tail loss =
problem. In the last meeting we saw pretty good support for this, but =
one question is whether the WG should produce one RFC or two RFCs =
addressing this. If there were going to be two RFCs, it would be good to =
be quite clear about how do they relate with each other. Does it make =
sense to implement both at the same time, or should implementor choose =
between them, and on what basis?

Sure, these are reasonable questions to ask. Let's try to come to a =
conclusion at the meeting.

Our update will try to clarify the differences, and I'll do my best to =
explain them at the meeting. Then we should be in a good position to =
decide, I think.

Cheers,

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts director=
ies.
 This draft is a work item of the TCP Maintenance and Minor Extensions Work=
ing Group of the IETF.

	Title           : Shared Use of Experimental TCP Options
	Author(s)       : Joe Touch
	Filename        : draft-ietf-tcpm-experimental-options-02.txt
	Pages           : 8
	Date            : 2012-10-05

Abstract:
   This document describes how TCP option codepoints can support
   concurrent experiments using a magic number field. This mechanism
   avoids the need for a coordinated registry, and is backward-
   compatible with currently known uses. It is recommended for all new
   experimental RFCs that require TCP option codepoints.

Hi, all,

This change reflects feedback on the need for a more explicit discussion 
of two things:

- specific recommendation for its use

- specific recommendation for a transition plan

It should be ready for WGLC.

Where should the new drafts note the experimental magic number? in the
IANA section?

There are many ">>" markers in the doc. Do they mean anything?

Anywhere in the new draft, as would be the case for any other protocol 
values that are not managed by IANA.

The point of self-selected magic numbers is to avoid the need for IANA 
coordination. The number could be reported in the IANA section for 
IANA's consideration if they decide to voluntarily collect a list of 
such numbers, but there are no IANA actions associated with magic numbers.

These are explained in Section 2.

Mirja,

Will the new draft also assess variants that are not known to be covered
by IPR disclosures? That may be indeed be a useful point for input.

Hi Mirja,

As individual TCPM contributor, I think that we still lack a full understan=
ding of the pros and cons of the different variants, and it is worth to dis=
cuss this (also in the next meeting).

But the group first has to decide whether to indeed add the charter milesto=
ne. Given the complexity and impact of this topic, we need sufficient inter=
est in TCPM. As far as I recall, in Vancouver there was broad support (betw=
een 15 and 20 participants) for working on detailed ECN feedback. It would =
help a lot if those participants could confirm their willingness to contrib=
ute on the list.

Michael

We haven't got awfully many presentation requests so far. If you would =
like to give a talk in the TCPM meeting, please send mail to chairs =
ASAP.

TCPM session is on Tuesday, Nov 6 at 9:00.

> Hi,
>=20
> It's time to start the agenda preparation for the upcoming meeting. =
After discussing this among the chairs, this time we thought to take a =
little different approach than earlier, trying to ensure enough =
discussion time for some of the important topics. The proposal is to =
pre-allocate our 2.5-hour meeting into following parts:
>=20
> 1. WG drafts (45 minutes)
> 2. More accurate ECN (30 minutes)
> 3. TCP Loss Probe / RTO Restart (30 minutes)
> 4. Other items (45 minutes)

> For each part, we should aim for short presentations, to have enough =
time for discussion. Especially for the "Other items" presentation =
requests we'd like to see some mailing list traffic before deciding on a =
presentation slot. Any comments?

Hi Michael,

Same here... (I guess co-authorship is active participation)

I did have an offline discussion with Matt in between, discussing some of t=
he limitations the current proposals have.
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-kuehlewind-tcpm-accurate-ecn-option-01
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-kuehlewind-tcpm-accurate-ecn-01

Even though we did agree on the definitive usefulness of having that inform=
ation available, it was unclear what are the exact circumstances the signal=
ing protocol has to fulfill eventually and to what extent...

Thus we didn't arrive at a conclusion, if these proposals fit all the (pote=
ntial) needs, but we also didn't came up with an example mechanism, that wo=
uld need more information than what is available with these proposals.

Best regards,

Richard Scheffenegger

Hi,

We should make progress with RFC 1323bis, and therefore need people to =
review it, so that we can assess how close the draft is to being ready. =
Because RFC 1323 one of the key specs implemented in most stacks, it is =
important that this draft goes through a careful review before it is =
published.

The latest version of the draft is at =
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-tcpm-1323bis-04

So please read the draft and send comments, preferably to the mailing =
list.

- Pasi

I wonder if the text in Section 4.3 needs modification:

   It is vitally important to use the RTTM mechanism with big windows;
   otherwise, the door is opened to some dangerous instabilities due to
   aliasing.  Furthermore, the option is probably useful for all TCP's,
   since it simplifies the sender.

I believe that Linux hasn't used the echoed timestamp to calculate
RTTs for some years (though I haven't looked at the code recently,
Matt Mathis could probably say). I believe the book-keeping is just
done internally, as much as possible.

I also wonder if it is worth mentioning the issue of a reciever who
echos modified timestamps? If the timestamps are used without sanity
checking, then the timeout can be controlled by the reciever (without
changing the actual RTT).

The security section has some comments on middle boxes that remove
timestamp options. I don't know if we need to offer any advice on
scrubbing timestamp options? I haven't heard any problems being caused
by this, so maybe there is nothing to be said.

	David.

Like I said the only other sections containing specification related
language are
section 9 and section 12. Since section 12 has been mentioned prominently
in the Introduction, I'm adding a reference to section 9 at the end of sect=
ion 2
per your suggestion.

I don't understand. When did I name any reference not already in the
draft in order
to address your comments on the draft, and why would I do that if the discu=
ssion
here is about the text of the draft itself, not about further debating on I=
W10?

The only case I can possibly think of wrt this was your question about TCP
SACK. Frankly I don't remember the content of the email discussion but it w=
as
studied as part of [CW10] as mentioned in the draft.

Again the draft is self-contained. All the references are included. I
think you've
asked repeatedly to expand the links, i.e., to provide a summary of each
study/paper/report... But I felt we've done enough. Interesting
readers can always
follow the references provided by the draft to find all the info.

I will submit an updated draft soon.

	Title           : Increasing TCP's Initial Window

                          Nandita Dukkipati

Abstract:
   This document proposes an experiment to increase the permitted TCP
   initial window (IW) from between 2 and 4 segments, as specified in
   RFC 3390, to 10 segments, with a fallback to the existing
   recommendation when performance issues are detected. It discusses the
   motivation behind the increase, the advantages and disadvantages of
   the higher initial window, and presents results from several large
   scale experiments showing that the higher initial window improves the
   overall performance of many web services without resulting in a
   congestion collapse. The document closes with a discussion of usage
   and deployment for further experimental purpose recommended by the
   IETF TCP Maintenance and Minor Extensions (TCPM) working group.

FYI,

We have submitted an update. The algorithm is unchanged - I had promised =
a simplification in Vancouver, but we have found that this doesn't work.
There is now some discussion of how this complements some other =
algorithms, and how it relates to TLP. I will try to make this =
relationship very clear in my presentation in Atlanta.

Cheers,
Michael

Abstract:
   TCP Fast Open (TFO) allows data to be carried in the SYN and SYN-ACK
   packets and consumed by the receiving end during the initial
   connection handshake, thus saving up to one full round trip time
   (RTT) compared to standard TCP which requires a three-way handshake
   (3WHS) to complete before data can be exchanged.

	Title           : Proportional Rate Reduction for TCP

Abstract:
   This document describes an experimental algorithm, Proportional Rate
   Reduction (PPR) to improve the accuracy of the amount of data sent by
   TCP during loss recovery.  Standard Congestion Control requires that
   TCP and other protocols reduce their congestion window in response to
   losses.  This window reduction naturally occurs in the same round
   trip as the data retransmissions to repair the losses, and is
   implemented by choosing not to transmit any data in response to some
   ACKs arriving from the receiver.  Two widely deployed algorithms are
   used to implement this window reduction: Fast Recovery and Rate
   Halving.  Both algorithms are needlessly fragile under a number of
   conditions, particularly when there is a burst of losses such that
   the number of ACKs returning to the sender is small.  Proportional
   Rate Reduction minimizes these excess window adjustments such that at
   the end of recovery the actual window size will be as close as
   possible to ssthresh, the window size determined by the congestion
   control algorithm.  It is patterned after Rate Halving, but using the
   fraction that is appropriate for target window chosen by the
   congestion control algorithm.

ChangeLog since 01:

- elaborate more on the issue of duplicate SYN-data (sec 2.1)

- use draft-tcpm-experimental-options (sec 10)

- add a new subsection about attacks from behind NAT (sec 6.3)
  and discuss Bob Briscoe's idea on defending with TCP-TS and
  cookies

- use null cookie (end of sec 4.1.2) (courtesy of Bob Briscoe)

- explain the problem of cookie option in FIN (end of 4.2.1)

- re-emphasize other than including data in SYN packet. TFO
  draft does not change any part of congestion control, and
  the transmission MUST be governed by CC (sec 4.2.2)

- a bunch of minor edits

Greetings, all,

We've recently submitted =
draft-scheffenegger-tcpm-timestamp-negotiation-05 and =
draft-trammell-tcpm-timestamp-interval-00. As discussed in Vancouver and =
on the list, we've split the text on timestamp interval exposure out =
into its own draft, separating interval encoding from the negotiation =
mechanism. We additionally specify an experimental TCP option encoding =
for interval exposure, such that it could be used on its own.

This is still very much a work in progress, as the present revisions of =
the draft reflect the work to split them but little in the way of other =
enhancements. We plan to submit new revisions shortly after the Atlanta =
IETF meeting.=20

Best regards,

Brian=

Yuchung,

You state that fast open does not change the congestion control, but I am s=
till wondering whether this is actually true. My impression is that fast op=
en can have side effects that affect congestion control, at least in corner=
 cases. But please correct me if I am wrong.

Let's assume that the downlink between a HTTP server and a HTTP client is s=
everely congested.

With current TCP, the client will send a SYN, and the server will respond b=
y SYN-ACK. Even if the SYN carries data, the server cannot respond. That im=
plies that the server sends one packet to a congested downlink. If it gets =
dropped, the whole connection backs off for a moment. That may help to redu=
ce the congestion.

With fast open, the client will send SYN+data, and the server will potentia=
lly respond by a series of packets as allowed by the initial congestion win=
dow. According to RFC 3390, this implies sending 3 packets to the severely =
congested downlink. That is apparently worse...

Thus, unless I miss something here, the amount of data that a server could =
send to a severely congested link can be significantly larger with fast ope=
n. Fast open may thus cause self-congestion in such a scenario. Theoretical=
ly it could maybe also harm other traffic (fairness...).

It is not entirely clear to me whether that difference indeed matters in re=
ality with RFC 3390, since fast open mostly affects *when* data is sent. Ma=
ybe this is a corner case only. But at least it might be worthwile to menti=
on that side-effect in the draft. That might also help to understand what w=
ould happen if fast open and IW10 are used at the same time. That question =
was raised several times already.

Thanks

Michael (as individual)

Maybe this is a corner case only. But at least it might be worthwile to men=

Yuchung,

I did not suggest that the draft must update RFC 5681.

My proposal is that the draft discusses more explicitly what the different =
sending behavior implies to a (congested) network. Right now, the draft mai=
nly stresses the performance benefit for applications. Well understood. But=
 it seems to me a valid question whether this benefit comes at some cost fo=
r the network, at least in corner cases.

I think that some text on that would be good to complete the document. This=
 could be a short paragraph e. g. in Section 5. This is a quite low-hanging=
 fruit. It could basically be a better phrasing of our discussion here.

Michael (as individual)

How about this
"If SYNACK is lost during handshake, in Fast Open the server may send up to
an initial window of data because the loss is detected afterwards. But in
regular handshake, the server detects the loss first and reduces the
initial congestion window according to RFC".

&gt; You state that fast open does not change the congestion control, but I=
 am still wondering whether this is actually true. My impression is that fa=

orner cases. But please correct me if I am wrong.<br>


<br>
Which part in RFC5681 needs to be updated by Fast Open if you don&#39;t<br>
think it&#39;s true?<br>
<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Let&#39;s assume that the downlink between a HTTP server and a HTTP cl=
ient is severely congested.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; With current TCP, the client will send a SYN, and the server will resp=
ond by SYN-ACK. Even if the SYN carries data, the server cannot respond. Th=
at implies that the server sends one packet to a congested downlink. If it =
gets dropped, the whole connection backs off for a moment. That may help to=
 reduce the congestion.<br>


&gt;<br>
&gt; With fast open, the client will send SYN+data, and the server will pot=
entially respond by a series of packets as allowed by the initial congestio=
n window. According to RFC 3390, this implies sending 3 packets to the seve=
rely congested downlink. That is apparently worse...<br>


&gt;<br>
&gt; Thus, unless I miss something here, the amount of data that a server c=
ould send to a severely congested link can be significantly larger with fas=
t open. Fast open may thus cause self-congestion in such a scenario. Theore=
tically it could maybe also harm other traffic (fairness...).<br>


<br>
What if the handshakes finish smoothly in current TCP, but the network<br>
becomes congested as you sketched by the time server is ready to send?<br>
and many servers today do not change cwnd after idle. It&#39;s certainly<br=

<br>
We appreciate you scrutinizing the draft. but I suggest you experts<br>
look congestion control on at higher level. How about loss-based<br>
algorithm causing huge queues with BB. Ok I am deviating now ...<br>
<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; It is not entirely clear to me whether that difference indeed matters =
in reality with RFC 3390, since fast open mostly affects *when* data is sen=
t. Maybe this is a corner case only. But at least it might be worthwile to =
mention that side-effect in the draft. That might also help to understand w=
hat would happen if fast open and IW10 are used at the same time. That ques=
tion was raised several times already.<br>


&gt;<br>
As I said, IW10 is part of RFC5681. TFO does not update RFC5681<br>
currently. Should I mention TCP-SACK in TFO too?<br>

Hello,

We would like to ask presenters to send the presentation materials
before the meeting so that people have chances to take a look at them.

We would like to ask presenters to send the materials by Monday(11/5) noon.
It doesn't have to be final version and you can send refined versions later.
We really appreciate your cooperation.

Thanks,

I just would like to check if updated texts works for your concern here.

One thing in my mind is this is a draft for experimental RFC which people
should think about carefully its concern and implication before implement
it. So, I personally think people are generally expected to check the
references if they have any concerns.
Also, we basically don't know what kinds of concerns readers will have for
this draft, so answering all concerns in the draft for readers would be
impossible.
I personally think the draft is doing a good job on this, but if you have
concerns which are really important to be addressed, but it's not mentioned
in the draft yet, could you point it out?

Regards,

Regarding the comments below. You several times named a reference to<br>

 I<br>
know where to find the information as I&#39;ve been following the discussio=

someone who later reads the document, might not have followed mail discussi=

Also, we basically don&#39;t know what kinds of concerns readers will have =
for this draft, so answering all concerns in the draft for readers would be=
 impossible. <br>I personally think the draft is doing a good job on this, =
but if you have concerns which are really important to be addressed, but it=

&gt; &gt;&gt; Hi Jerry,<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; just one quick comment:<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; Moreover, the TOC provides a very clear index of the cont=
ents so a<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; savvy reader can<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; quickly pick the sections of interesting. E.g., if you on=
ly want to<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; focus on the change<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; you&#39;ll know to read section 1 and 2 only. That&#39;s =
it.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; And that&#39;s not really true (anymore). There are several S=
HOULD and MUST<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; in the other sections as well. Thus you have to read all the =
doc to<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; correctly implement the changes. I know that the intent was t=
o have<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; everything in section 1 and 2 that is of interest for impleme=
nters but<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; due to the many changes that have been done in previous versi=
ons, it&#39;s<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; not the case anymore.<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; Actually the only other specification related languages is sectio=
n 9,<br>
&gt; &gt; and it&#39;s not<br>
&gt; &gt; essential as it simply reiterates what is described in rfc6298.<b=
r>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; Yes other SHOULD and MUST can be found in the newly added section=
 12<br>
&gt; &gt; &quot;Usage and Deployment Recommendations&quot;, but that sectio=
n is mainly about<br>
&gt; &gt; what one must do in any future large scale experiment, closely mo=
nitoring<br>
&gt; &gt; a number of key metrics... and not really about protocol specific=
ation.<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; So to summarize, this draft is not just about protocol specificat=
ion,<br>
&gt; &gt; it also addresses<br>
&gt; &gt; many other questions like why, and how to go about doing more<br>
&gt; &gt; experiments safely.<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; That why I said, all the content is there, would be nice to<b=
r>
&gt; &gt;&gt; clean-up/restructure a little and then it&#39;s done.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; It&#39;s good to have a similar structure than RFC3390 (didn&=
#39;t realize that<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; you tried to have exactly the same sections here) but if the =
content<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; would fit<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; It was spelled out up front in 1. =A0Introduction<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; =A0 =A0&quot;This document proposes to raise the upper bound on T=
CP&#39;s initial<br>
&gt; &gt; =A0 =A0window (IW) to 10 segments or roughly 15KB. It is patterne=
d after and<br>
&gt; &gt; =A0 =A0borrows heavily from RFC 3390 [RFC3390] and earlier work i=
n this<br>
&gt; &gt; =A0 =A0area.&quot;<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; better with a different structure, I&#39;d prefer to have a g=
ood readable<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; doc over having a doc that looks similar to RFC3390.<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; Let&#39;s stick to the current format but I will respond to your =
one other<br>
&gt; &gt; criticism on<br>
&gt; &gt; section 12 first. The section is quite specific about the metrics=
 to<br>
&gt; &gt; monitor: &quot;A key metric to monitor is the rate of packet loss=
es, ECN<br>
&gt; &gt; marking, or segment retransmissions during the initial burst.&quo=
t; But as<br>
&gt; &gt; others have pointed out it can be<br>
&gt; &gt; quite difficult to try to get more specific than that, i.e., how =
much<br>
&gt; &gt; performance<br>
&gt; &gt; deteriorates before one must back off. As such all we can do for =
now is<br>
&gt; &gt; to have enough warning signs for now but leave some details for f=
uture<br>
&gt; &gt; investigation.<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; Jerry<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; Mirja<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt;Hence I&#39;d like to<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; propose quite a little restructuring before moving t=
he document<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; forward as it is hard to easily catch the main point=
s at the moment.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; More concrete, I&#39;d move at least section 4, 10 a=
nd 11, maybe also 5,<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; 6 and 7 (or at least partly) to the appendix. The fi=
rst two paragraph<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; of section 7 might actually belong in<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; Yes it&#39;s doable but I think the current flow is fine =
if you realize<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; the main purpose of<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; the document is to justify the change, not the change its=
elf. Also TOC<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; will make it<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; much easier to navigate through.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; the security consideration section. And section 15 (=
conclusion) is<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; not needed at all. More detailed comments below.<br>

&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; Section 1 Introduction:<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; ----------------------------<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; - s/roughly 15KB/maxium 14600B/<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; Ok.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; - 2. paragraph: Don&#39;t like this two sentences at=
 all. I hope the<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; reason to increase IW is not just the fact there the=
 queues are large<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; enough to store 10 packets. You basically saying &qu=
ot;Let&#39;s send more<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; packets at once to blow the queues!&quot;. I&#39;d s=
ay the reason is that flow<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; sizes have increased and therefore IW10 would improv=
e latency a lot.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; Only because queues are likely to be large than 10 p=
ackets today, it<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; is possible at all to send more than 10 packet at on=
ce. Btw. even if<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; the queue would be small, pacing could help to still=
 allow an IW of<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; 10. Moreover, the fact that there might be several c=
oncurrent flows,<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; does not mean that the buffer has to be larger (only=
 if those flow<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; start at the same time with IW10). And even if there=
 is a large<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; buffer, if there is a long-lived TCP connection, thi=
s flow will fill<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; up the queue and there might be by chance still no s=
pace in the queue<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; for 10 additional packets.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; Guess you read the paragraph differently from what the au=
thors had in<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; mind. What we have in mind was =A0&quot;Ten segments are =
likely to fit into<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; queue space&quot; because access link drains much faster =
these days (due to<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; b/w growth)...<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; Will try to make it more clear.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; Will continue later,<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; Jerry<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; - 3. paragraph: Don&#39;t agree. You might not know =
that there is a low<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; speed link somewhere on the path. There are cases wh=
ere the endpoint<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; can protect its path by setting the receiver window =
but that&#39;s not<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; the general case.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; This is exactly the point - it&#39;s not the general case but may be t=
he<br>
&gt; vast majority.<br>
&gt; I.e., 95% of severely b/w limited hosts may be just 1 hop away or even=
<br>
&gt; directly attached to a slow link (e.g., dailup modem) hence can be<br>
&gt; mitigated much easily. No one suggested a solution here to solve the<b=
r>
&gt; general problem of<br>
&gt; detecting bottleneck<br>
&gt; b/w. That&#39;s the job TCP&#39;s CC algorithm.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; - 5. paragraph: &quot;We recommend that all TCP impl=
ementations have a<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; settable TCP IW parameter...&quot;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; =A0 -&gt; I&#39;d like to see this not only in the i=
ntroduction but also in<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; the main section (2.) that is describing the changes=
 and maybe even<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; as a SHOULD<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; Section 2 TCP Modifications<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; -------------<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; - Maybe have a more specific title like &quot;Settin=
g the IW&quot; and some<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; subsections<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Plagiarized from RFC3390 :)<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; - equation 1: say somewhere that numbers are in KByt=
e<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Not really.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; - 4. paragraph (&quot;Note that...&quot;) does not b=
elong in this section<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Why not? (It&#39;s more or less a disclaim because no one has done any=
 study<br>
&gt; on non-Ethernet MTU.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; - maybe new subsection for paragraph 5 &quot;Resetti=
ng the IW after SYN<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; loss&quot;; what are &quot;multiple SYN or SYN/ACK r=
etransmissions&quot; -&gt; maybe<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; say a number<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Ok. Changed to &quot;more than one&quot;.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; - last paragraph: maybe s/implementations SHOULD fal=
l<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; back/implementations MUST fall back/ ?<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; Section 3 Implementation Issues<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; -------------<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; - Maybe move the 3 paragraph into section 2 such tha=
t the setting of<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; the receive window is a MUST or SHOULD of the change=
s to TCP<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Non-essential. Remember even IW10 is just an upperbound.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; - 4. paragraph: Please give some explanation (or rem=
ove)<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; This was brought up and discussed on the list long ago.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; Section 4 Background<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; ------------<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; - Move most parts in the appendix<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; - Move 2. paragraph into Introduction<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; - Maybe improve structure with subsections e.g. para=
graph 5 and 6<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; as &quot;Recommendation for HTTP Traffic&quot; or so=
mething<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; See my other response. I prefer not to change the structure at this ti=
me.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; - 7. paragraph: &quot;pacing will not be necessary&q=
uot;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; =A0 -&gt; I can&#39;t remember having seen any resul=
ts on this. Please explain<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; further or remove!<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; The statement was really &quot;We suspect&quot; pacing will not be nec=
essary because<br>
&gt; our test results do not show any severe congestion from IW10...<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; Section 5 Advantages of a Larger Initial Window<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; -----------<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; - section 5.1 Reducing Latency<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; =A0 =A0You should also mention that for larger trans=
mission with several<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; 100s of RTT a save of 4 RTT does not really help. Th=
us transmissions<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; which will finish within a small number of RTT will =
benefit the most.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Isn&#39;t it obvious already?<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; - section 5.2<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; =A0 You make some quite general statements here and =
then u only refer<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; to google data. Maybe you can find some other refere=
nces as well.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; It&#39;s not just google data (see all the refs.)<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; Section 6<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; ----------<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; - paragraph 3 and 4 belong in an evaluation section/=
appendix (maybe<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; own subsection on &quot;Influence of simultaneous op=
ened connections&quot;)<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; Section 7<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; --------<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; - Move 1. paragraph to security consideration<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; - Move rest in appendix or even parts in =A0the intr=
oduction<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; Section 9<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; ----------<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; - move to main section which =A0is introducing the T=
CP changes as own<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; subsection as a MUST is in here<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Non-essential because it simply restates what is said in rfc6298. It w=
as<br>
&gt; added to address some concern (or confusion) that was brought up in th=
e<br>
&gt; past that the initial burst of 10 pkts won&#39;t bid well for RTO henc=
e causing<br>
&gt; spurious rexmits.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; - can you explain better why this is need or what wo=
uld happen<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; otherwise?<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; Section 10<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; ----------<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; - Move to appendix, have more subsections and better=
 titles for the<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; subsections e.g. &quot;Improvements in Latency&quot;=
, &quot;Impact on the<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; Retransmission Rate&quot; and &quot;Multiple TCP Con=
nections&quot;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; - The numbers for the latency improvement are only o=
n (google) web<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; search. Of course there are quite large improvements=
 possible but the<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; Internet contains also other traffic. Not sure if yo=
ur number are<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; really that significant...?<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; We just stated what we have.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; Section 11<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; ---------<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; - move to appendix<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; - It&#39;s nice that you list all the studies. Could=
 you please quickly<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; summarize their results/findings, too? Because I gue=
ss that the<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; intersting part to know.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; If you are interested please go read them yourself.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; Section 12<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; --------<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; - Its good to have this section but it&#39;s quite u=
nspecific. E.g. you<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; say &quot;An increased initial window MUST NOT be tu=
rned on by default on<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; systems without such monitoring capabilities.&quot; =
But what exactly<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; should be monitored and how frequently and so on. Al=
so &quot;any<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; significant deterioration&quot; doesn&#39;t say anyt=
hing to me. Is it possible<br>

I'm wondering it might be advisable to have a mechanism which can
invalidate the cookie for lossy destinations.
Or, it could be a job for the drafts like IW10 to recommend to set
appropriate IW size for lossy destinations. Any thoughts on this?

&gt; You state that fast open does not change the congestion control, but I=
 am still wondering whether this is actually true. My impression is that fa=

orner cases. But please correct me if I am wrong.<br>




<br>
Which part in RFC5681 needs to be updated by Fast Open if you don&#39;t<br>
think it&#39;s true?<br>
<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Let&#39;s assume that the downlink between a HTTP server and a HTTP cl=
ient is severely congested.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; With current TCP, the client will send a SYN, and the server will resp=
ond by SYN-ACK. Even if the SYN carries data, the server cannot respond. Th=
at implies that the server sends one packet to a congested downlink. If it =
gets dropped, the whole connection backs off for a moment. That may help to=
 reduce the congestion.<br>




&gt;<br>
&gt; With fast open, the client will send SYN+data, and the server will pot=
entially respond by a series of packets as allowed by the initial congestio=
n window. According to RFC 3390, this implies sending 3 packets to the seve=
rely congested downlink. That is apparently worse...<br>




&gt;<br>
&gt; Thus, unless I miss something here, the amount of data that a server c=
ould send to a severely congested link can be significantly larger with fas=
t open. Fast open may thus cause self-congestion in such a scenario. Theore=
tically it could maybe also harm other traffic (fairness...).<br>




<br>
What if the handshakes finish smoothly in current TCP, but the network<br>
becomes congested as you sketched by the time server is ready to send?<br>
and many servers today do not change cwnd after idle. It&#39;s certainly<br=

not a corner case then. How about changing the scenarios with<br>
syn-cookies?<br>
<br>
We appreciate you scrutinizing the draft. but I suggest you experts<br>
look congestion control on at higher level. How about loss-based<br>
algorithm causing huge queues with BB. Ok I am deviating now ...<br>

&gt;<br>
&gt; It is not entirely clear to me whether that difference indeed matters =
in reality with RFC 3390, since fast open mostly affects *when* data is sen=
t. Maybe this is a corner case only. But at least it might be worthwile to =
mention that side-effect in the draft. That might also help to understand w=
hat would happen if fast open and IW10 are used at the same time. That ques=
tion was raised several times already.<br>




&gt;<br>
As I said, IW10 is part of RFC5681. TFO does not update RFC5681<br>
currently. Should I mention TCP-SACK in TFO too?<br>
<br>
<br>
&gt; Thanks<br>

&gt;&gt; &gt; Abstract:<br>
&gt;&gt; &gt; =A0 =A0TCP Fast Open (TFO) allows data to be carried in the S=
YN<br>
&gt;&gt; and SYN-ACK<br>
&gt;&gt; &gt; =A0 =A0packets and consumed by the receiving end during the i=
nitial<br>
&gt;&gt; &gt; =A0 =A0connection handshake, thus saving up to one full round=
 trip time<br>
&gt;&gt; &gt; =A0 =A0(RTT) compared to standard TCP which requires a<br>
&gt;&gt; three-way handshake<br>
&gt;&gt; &gt; =A0 =A0(3WHS) to complete before data can be exchanged.<br>
&gt;&gt; ChangeLog since 01:<br>
&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt; - elaborate more on the issue of duplicate SYN-data (sec 2.1)<br>
&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt; - use draft-tcpm-experimental-options (sec 10)<br>
&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt; - add a new subsection about attacks from behind NAT (sec 6.3)<br>
&gt;&gt; =A0 and discuss Bob Briscoe&#39;s idea on defending with TCP-TS an=
d<br>
&gt;&gt; =A0 cookies<br>
&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt; - use null cookie (end of sec 4.1.2) (courtesy of Bob Briscoe)<br>
&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt; - explain the problem of cookie option in FIN (end of 4.2.1)<br>
&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt; - re-emphasize other than including data in SYN packet. TFO<br>
&gt;&gt; =A0 draft does not change any part of congestion control, and<br>
&gt;&gt; =A0 the transmission MUST be governed by CC (sec 4.2.2)<br>
&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt; - a bunch of minor edits<br>
