Subject: [PATCH 7/7]: Use initial RTT sample from SYN exchange
Date: Tue, 23 Jan 2007 15:41:16 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200701231541.16360@strip-the-willow> (raw)

[CCID 3]: Use initial RTT sample from SYN exchange

The patch follows the following recommendation made in an erratum to RFC 4342:

  "Senders MAY additionally make use of other available RTT measurements, 
   including those from the initial Request-Response packet exchange."

It implements larger initial windows with regard to this inital RTT measurement,
using the mechanism suggested in draft-ietf-dccp-rfc3448bis, section 4.2.
