Hello everyone,
I have a lot of client, say C1, C2, .. Cn, which route packets to
my servers through router R. But R will drop 70% - 90% _ non-SYN _
packets from clients to Server.
I think you should address that first - why does the router drop 70 to
905 of the non-SYN segments it receives. At first blush that sounds
like a classic case of massive over-subscription, and any attempt to
accelerate the retransmissions seems destined to trigger congestive
collapse.
As a side issue, if the router is dropping 70 to 90% of the non-SYN
segments, why is it not also dropping 70 to 90% of the SYN segments?
Also, I'm reasonably confident that an actual keepalive probe would not
(or at least should not?) be considered in the three duplicate ACK
heuristic.
