	Title		: A Conservative SACK-based Loss Recovery Algorithm for 
                          TCP
	Author(s)	: M. Allman, E. Blanton
	Filename	: draft-allman-tcp-sack-07.txt
	Pages		: 8
	Date		: 24-Jul-01
	
This document presents a conservative loss recovery algorithm for
TCP that is based on the use of the selective acknowledgment TCP
option.  The algorithm presented in this document conforms to the
spirit of the current congestion control specification, but allows
TCP senders to recover more effectively when multiple segments are
lost from a single flight of data.

Send a message to:

In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-allman-tcp-sack-07.txt".
	
NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
