System and method for adjusting the window size of a TCP packet through network elements
First Claim
1. A system for adjusting the window size of a TCP packet on a packet network comprising:
- a sending network element in communication with a receiving network element for transmitting and receiving data packets between said sending network element and said receiving network element on said packet network, wherein at least one of said sending network element and said receiving network element is configured to;
determine network performance information of said packet network;
concatenate said network performance information into said data packets; and
adjust the window size of said TCP packet based on said network performance information.

Abstract
A system for adjusting the window size of a TCP packet on a packet network including a sending network element in communication with a receiving network element for transmitting and receiving data packets between the sending network element and the receiving network element on the packet network, wherein at least one of the sending network element and the receiving network element is configured to determine network performance information of the packet network; concatenate the network performance information into the data packets; and adjust the window size of the TCP packet based on the network performance information. A method for adjusting the window size of a TCP packet on a packet network is also included.
