I've always thought that the TCP protocol was the heart of the ingenuity that is the Internet. TCP is a flow control protocol that strives to produce both fair efficient outcomes, both for each TCP session, but for the networ4k as well. The essential feedback signal used by TCP is congestion-based packet loss, but this isn't the only approach. Another approach lies in enrolling the aassistance of the network's routers, and use packet marking instead of loss to signal to the TCP end hosts that network congestion is taking place. This form of signalling, Explicit Congestion Notification is explored in this article, as well as the outcomes of a measurement exercise to establish just how widely we used this alternativer form of congestion signalling.
