Socket still alive!!

Hi, I'm investigate about a problem regarding a connection between two server (S1 and S2). A client software on S1 made a pool of connections on S2; for some reason some connections end but sockets still alive on S2 and not on S1. I always knew about sockets as a pair of processes; is it...

which socket should socket option on be set

Hi all, On the server side, one socket is used for listening, the others are used for communicating with the client. My question is: if i want to set option for socket, which socket should be set on? If either can be set, what's the different? Again, what's the different if set option...

NAME

     cc_hd -- HD Congestion Control Algorithm

DESCRIPTION

     The HD congestion control algorithm is an implementation of the Hamilton Institute's delay-based congestion control which aims to keep net-
     work queuing delays below a particular threshold (queue_threshold).

     HD probabilistically reduces the congestion window (cwnd) based on its estimate of the network queuing delay.  The probability of reducing
     cwnd is zero at hd_qmin or less, rising to a maximum at queue_threshold, and then back to zero at the maximum queuing delay.

     Loss-based congestion control algorithms such as NewReno probe for network capacity by filling queues until there is a packet loss.  HD com-
     petes with loss-based congestion control algorithms by allowing its probability of reducing cwnd to drop from a maximum at queue_threshold to
     be zero at the maximum queuing delay.  This has been shown to work well when the bottleneck link is highly multiplexed.

MIB Variables
     The algorithm exposes the following tunable variables in the net.inet.tcp.cc.hd branch of the sysctl(3) MIB:

     queue_threshold  Queueing congestion threshold (qth) in ticks.  Default is 20.

     pmax	      Per packet maximum backoff probability as a percentage.  Default is 5.

     qmin	      Minimum queuing delay threshold (qmin) in ticks.	Default is 5.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

     Development and testing of this software were made possible in part by grants from the FreeBSD Foundation and Cisco University Research Pro-
     gram Fund at Community Foundation Silicon Valley.

FUTURE WORK

     The Hamilton Institute have recently made some improvements to the algorithm implemented by this module and have called it Coexistent-TCP (C-
     TCP).  The improvements should be evaluated and potentially incorporated into this module.

HISTORY

     The cc_hd congestion control module first appeared in FreeBSD 9.0.

     The module was first released in 2010 by David Hayes whilst working on the NewTCP research project at Swinburne University of Technology's
     Centre for Advanced Internet Architectures, Melbourne, Australia.	More details are available at:
