192 | When F-RTO has detected that a TCP retransmission timeout was | ||
193 | spurious (i.e, the timeout would have been avoided had TCP set a | ||
194 | longer retransmission timeout), TCP has several options what to do | ||
195 | next. Possible values are: | ||
196 | 0 Rate halving based; a smooth and conservative response, | ||
197 | results in halved cwnd and ssthresh after one RTT | ||
198 | 1 Very conservative response; not recommended because even | ||
199 | though being valid, it interacts poorly with the rest of | ||
