ABSTRACT:
A system and method are provided for sending transmission control protocol (TCP) messages in a local area network (LAN). The method comprises: selecting a TCP streaming application; transmitting message segments at a rate responsive to a congestion window parameter; and, maintaining at least the congestion window parameter during the session, regardless of idle time between transmitted segments. In some aspects, the method further comprises: selecting a threshold level. Then, incrementing the congestion window parameter with an increment in response to receiving acknowledgements includes increasing the congestion window parameter until the congestion window parameter equals the threshold level. Additionally, the method further comprises: in response to not receiving an acknowledgment, maintaining the threshold level; and, in response to not receiving an acknowledgement, maintaining the congestion window parameter.
