Review – TCP Congestion Control with a Misbehaving Receiver
By identifying weaknesses in TCP’s RFC specifications, Savage et al. are able to bypass TCP’s congestion control behaviours. They specifically demonstrate three techniques: ACK division, DupACK spoofing, and Optimistic ACKing. ACK division increases the sender’s transmission window artificially by ACKing at byte granularity rather than segment granularity. DupACK spoofing sends a stream of dupl...
متن کاملReceiver-centric congestion control with a misbehaving receiver: Vulnerabilities and end-point solutions
Receiver-driven TCP protocols delegate key congestion control functions to receivers. Their goal is to exploit information available only at receivers in order to improve latency and throughput in diverse scenarios ranging from wireless access links to wireline and wireless web browsing. Unfortunately, in contrast to today’s sender-driven protocols, receiver-driven congestion control introduces...
متن کاملTCP-Real: receiver-oriented congestion control
We introduce a receiver-oriented approach to congestion control, demonstrated by an experimental protocol, TCPReal. The protocol allows for a measurement-based transmission strategy, which complements the ‘‘blind’’ increase/ decrease window adjustments. Owing to its design, the protocol displays an inherent property to produce comprehensive dynamics in heterogeneous environments with wired or w...
متن کاملCongestion Control with a Misbehaving Receiver: Robust TFRC and Other Protocols
This paper examines the operation of TFRC (TCPFriendly Rate Control) in scenarios where the receiver is untrustworthy. By misbehaving, a TFRC receiver can obtain a higher data rate at the expense of competing traffic. We identify and experimentally confirm several such attacks and designed Robust TCP-Friendly Rate Control (RTFRC), a TFRC variant which is resilient to receiver misbehavior. We al...
متن کاملEfficient defence against misbehaving TCP receiver DoS attacks
The congestion control algorithm in TCP relies on correct feedback from the receiver to determine the rate at which packets should be sent into the network. Hence, correct receiver feedback (in the form of acknowledgements in TCP) is essential to the goal of sharing the scarce bandwidth resources fairly and avoiding congestion collapse in the Internet. However, the assumption that a TCP receive...
