In our discussion of TCP congestion control, we implicitly assumed that the TCP sender always had data to send.
In our discussion of TCP congestion control, we implicitly assumed that the TCP sender always had data to send. Consider now the case that the TCP sender sends a large amount of data and then goes idle (since it has no more data to send) at t1. TCP remains idle for a relatively long period of time and then wants to send more data at t2 . What are the advantages and disadvantages of having TCP use the cwnd and ssthresh values from t1 when starting to send data at t2? What alternative would you recommend? Why? Clarify what alternative is used with justification
