TCP Congestion Avoidance

Use the TCP Congestion Avoidance page to activate a congestion avoidance

algorithm. The algorithm breaks up or prevents TCP global synchronization

in a congested node, where the congestion is due to various sources sending

packets with the same byte count.

To configure TCP congestion avoidance:

1 Click Quality of Service > General > TCP Congestion Avoidance in the

tree view to display the TCP Congestion Avoidance page.

TCP Congestion Avoidance increases network reliability, but it also

increases network traffic. Continue only if you are sure it will improve overall

network performance. For this change to be effective you must save the

configuration and reboot the device.
