Transmission Control Protocol [TCP]

Course Description

TCP controls over 80% of the web-based communications.  Learn how the basics of TCP operations, how TCP is the way applications get error corrected performance from the Internet and how TCP is the biggest throughput problem for IP-based communications.   Get the facts on Slow and Fast start and how congestion avoidance helps TCP/IP networks and can possibly hurt them as well.

This tutorial is an excellent way to get a primer on the subject without purchasing and reading a 300 page book or taking an expensive training course.  Over 45 detailed and well arranged slides walk you through TCP connection establishment and connection management functions, detailing TCP behavior.
