DCTCP (DataCenter TCP)

----------------------

======================



DCTCP is an enhancement to the TCP congestion control algorithm for data

center networks and leverages Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) in

the data center network to provide multi-bit feedback to the end hosts.



To enable it on end hosts:

To enable it on end hosts::



  sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_congestion_control=dctcp

  sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_ecn_fallback=0 (optional)
