RFC 5033 discusses the principles and guidelines for standardizing
new congestion control algorithms. This document obsoletes RFC 5033
to reflect changes in the congestion control landscape by providing a
framework for the development and assessment of congestion control
mechanisms, promoting stability across diverse network paths. This
document seeks to ensure that proposed congestion control algorithms
operate efficiently and without harm when used in the global
Internet. It emphasizes the need for comprehensive testing and
validation to prevent adverse interactions with existing flows.
This document is a product of the Congestion Control Working Group Working Group of the IETF.
BCP: This document specifies an Internet Best Current Practices for the
Internet Community, and requests discussion and suggestions for
improvements. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
