The window reduction ratio is always <= 1/2. Only when all of the - packets are marked, congestion window is halved.</p> -<p class="Pp">In order to keep the accuracy of the ECN marked fraction, a DCTCP - receiver mirrors back incoming (or missing) CE marks by setting (or - clearing) ECE marks. This feedback methodology is also adopted when the - receiver uses delayed ACK.</p> -<p class="Pp">The <span class="Ux">FreeBSD</span> DCTCP implementation includes - two minor modifications for the one-sided deployment. Considering the - situation that DCTCP is used as sender and classic ECN is used as receiver, - DCTCP sets the CWR flag as the reaction to the ECE flag.
