Q1Domain Verified
Within the context of TCP's congestion control, what is the primary objective of the "slow start" phase as implemented in modern algorithms like Reno or Cubic?
To maintain a stable sending rate and avoid overwhelming intermediate network devices.
To decrease the congestion window by a fixed additive amount when packet loss is observed.
To rapidly increase the sending rate to the estimated network capacity to maximize throughput.
To probe for available bandwidth by doubling the congestion window (cwnd) with each Round Trip Time (RTT) until packet loss is detected.
Q2Domain Verified
Consider a TCP connection experiencing significant packet loss. If the TCP sender is using the Cubic congestion control algorithm, how will the congestion window (cwnd) behave during the congestion avoidance phase after detecting packet loss?
The cwnd will be halved (multiplicative decrease) and then increase linearly (additive increase).
The cwnd will be reduced by a factor of 0.7 and then increase in a cubic manner.
The cwnd will be reset to the slow start threshold and then re-enter slow start.
The cwnd will decrease by a fixed amount (e.g., 1 segment) and then increase linearly.
Q3Domain Verified
In the context of TCP's reliability mechanisms, what is the fundamental difference between a "selective acknowledgment" (SACK) and a "cumulative acknowledgment" (ACK)?
SACKs are used for flow control, while cumulative ACKs are used for congestion control.
SACKs are a feature of UDP, while cumulative ACKs are a feature of TCP.
Cumulative ACKs acknowledge all data up to a specific sequence number, while SACKs acknowledge only the specific segments received.
Cumulative ACKs require retransmission of all segments from the acknowledged number onwards, while SACKs only retransmit missing segments.
