E1071266
UNEXPLORED
"TCP Extensions for Long-Delay Paths" is an early Internet standards document (RFC 1072) that proposes enhancements to the Transmission Control Protocol to improve performance over networks with large bandwidth-delay products, such as satellite links.

How this entity was disambiguated
This entity first appeared as the object of triple T13953543 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

Target entity: TCP Extensions for Long-Delay Paths Context triple: [RFC 1072, title, TCP Extensions for Long-Delay Paths]
-
A.
Multipath TCP Working Group
The Multipath TCP Working Group is an IETF body that develops and standardizes extensions to TCP enabling the use of multiple network paths simultaneously for a single connection.
-
B.
The Addition of Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) to IP
The Addition of Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) to IP is an IETF standard (RFC 3168) that specifies how IP and TCP can signal and respond to network congestion without relying solely on packet loss.
-
C.
Internet Protocol fragmentation and reassembly
Internet Protocol fragmentation and reassembly is the process by which large IP packets are split into smaller fragments for transmission across networks with limited maximum transmission units and then reassembled back into the original packet at the destination.
-
D.
Random Early Detection
Random Early Detection is a congestion avoidance mechanism for packet-switched networks that probabilistically drops packets before a queue becomes full to signal and control incipient congestion.
-
E.
Explicit Congestion Experienced
Explicit Congestion Experienced (ECE) is a TCP/IP header flag used in Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) to indicate that network congestion has been detected without dropping packets.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
