Operating Systems Solaris Change congestion protocol in Solaris 10 Post 302829429 by jim mcnamara on Thursday 4th of July 2013 09:10:41 PM

Solaris 10 does not show a protocol - just Solaris 11. Solaris 10 has a bunch of tunables related to network congestion:
Main link:
Book Information (Solaris Tunable Parameters Reference Manual)

TCP manual (chap 3 I think)
Book Information (Solaris Tunable Parameters Reference Manual)

IF you search for "cwnd" and "cong" using your browser you get some the tunables related to your issue. There is no algorithm to set like CUBIC -- that Linux 2.6 uses. Solaris 10 u08 predates a lot of that development.

An older discussion on the problem - note the links to Sun sites are broken due to oracle's decision to redo everything.
