Hi,
I have a question regarding TCP's RFC 793. There is no mention of TCP
event processing when in SYN_RCVD state.
Page 64 (http://www.freesoft.org/CIE/RFC/Orig/rfc793.txt)
discusses what happens when a SEGMENT arrives. Only three states are
mentioned here: CLOSED, LISTEN and SYN_SENT.
What I am interested in is what happens when we are in the SYN_RCVD
state and the ESTABLISHED state (or the rest of the CLOSE/FIN/TIME_WAIT)
states and a segment arrives. Am I missing something from the RFC?
The SYN_SENT state (and LISTEN and CLOSED) are explained in great
details. Like- check for ACK first, then RST, then FIN and so on. Is
there a similar treatment for SYN_RCVD, ESTABLISHED and the rest of the
states?
Any suggestions and help will be *highly* appreciated.
thanks
