Revision Details

Release

With this release, the TCP parameters are modified to reduce buffer overflow.

21.14.10

First introduced.

Pre 21.2

Feature Changes

Previous Behavior: In releases earlier to 21.14.x, the TCP slow start after idle time does not transfer the data from the buffer, thereby causing a buffer overflow.

New Behavior: From this release onwards, the TCP slow start is implemented only for the first TCP transfer. The TCP parameters are modified to reduce buffer overflow.
