Implementation Experience to Date
Implementation Experience to Date
- SACK standard relatively easy to implement and interoperate
- Others have seen significant improvement over Reno in heavy congestion
- We have tested SACK vs. Reno in 3 lightly loaded environments:
1.) T3 MAN connection (lightly loaded)
- Massive overbuffering
2.) T1 MAN (idle)
- textbook performance
3.) SMDS T1 (lightly loaded)
- saw 15 packets or more lost at once when buffers fill
