  1. Quick-Start for TCP and IP Draft-amit-quick-start-04.txt Jain, S. Floyd, M. Allman, and P. Sarolahti TSVWG, March 2005 Presentation last IETF: www.icir.org/floyd/talks

  2. QuickStart with TCP, for setting the initial window: • In an IP option in the SYN packet, the sender's desired sending rate: • Routers on the path decrement a TTL counter, • and decrease the allowed sending rate, if necessary. • The receiver sends feedback to the sender in the SYN/ACK packet: • The sender knows if all routers on the path participated. • The sender has an RTT measurement. • The sender can set the initial congestion window. • The TCP sender continues using normal congestion control.. • From an initial proposal by Amit Jain

  3. Changes fromdraft-amit-quick-start-03.txt: • Added a citation to the paper on "Evaluating Quick-Start for TCP", and added pointers to the work in that paper. • Discussions of router algorithms. • Discussions of sizing Quick-Start requests. • Added section on "Misbehaving Middleboxes”. • Added section on "Attacks on Quick-Start".

  4. “Evaluating Quick-Start for TCP” • Router algorithms: • Minimal algorithms at routers. • Also “Extreme Quick-Start” - • Maintains per-flow state for Quick-Start flows • Sizing the Quick-Start request. • Problems with overly-large Quick-Start requests. • Heuristics end-nodes could use in sizing requests. • URL “http://www.icir.org/floyd/quickstart.html”

  5. Attacks on Quick-Start: • Attacks to increase router’s processing load: • Easy to protect against - routers ignore Quick-Start when overloaded. • Attacks with bogus Quick-Start requests: • Harder to protect against. • Extreme Quick-Start in routers can help..

  6. Misbehaving Middleboxes: • Traffic normalizers that rewrite IP TTLs along the path? • Interferes with Quick-Start mechanism for validating a Quick-Start request.

  7. Feedback? • Are we ready for Working Group Last Call? • Experimental?

  8. Extra viewgraphs:

  9. Heuristics for Sizing Quick-Start Requests: • The sender doesn’t necessarily know the amount of data to be transmitted. • The sender knows more after an idle period. • End-hosts might know: • The capacity of last-mile hop. • The size of the local socket buffer. • The receiver’s advertised window. • Information from the application. • Past history of Quick-Start requests.
