Definitions:
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Onflow Player:
A plugin for a new vector animation technology. Similar, but in
many ways superior to Flash, the Onflow technology allows amazingly
detailed web animation at incredibly small file sizes. Visit www.onflow.com
for more information.
webHancer Agent:
Previously bundled with NetSuperSonic is the webHancer agent, which
relays web surfing metrics to allow for better understanding of
internet site performance as experienced by the user. webHancer
and NetSuperSonic.com are committed to ensuring your privacy. You

MTU:
(Maximum Transmission Unit)
Is the greatest amount of data that can be transferred in one physical
frame on the network. If a packet that has a smaller MTU than the
packet's frame length is sent, fragmentation will occur. For Ethernet,
1500 is the maximum MTU. The unofficial MTU for SLIP servers is
1006.
MSS:
(Maximum Segment Size)
Defines the largest segment of TCP data that the Winsock is prepared
to receive. When a connection is established, the two ends agree
to use the smaller of each end's value. Windows calculates MSS automatically,
based on MaxMTU.
DefaultRcvWindow:
(TCP Receive Window, or simply RWIN)
Determines how much data the receiving computer is prepared to get.
A too large RWIN will result in greater loss of data if a packet
is lost or damaged. A too small RWIN will be very slow, as each
packet will have to be acknowledged before the next packet is sent.
The RWIN is set to a multiple of the TCP MSS.
Tcp1323Opts:
Large window support. Used when an application requests a Winsock
socket to use buffer sizes greater than 64K. In previous implementations
the TCP window size was limited to 64K, this limit is raised to
2**30 through the use of TCP large window support as implemented
in Winsock 2.
SackOpts:
Selective acknowledgements allow TCP to recover from IP packet loss
without resending packets that were already received by the receiver.
Employed with TCP large windows.
MaxDupAcks:
Fast Retransmission and Fast Recovery of TCP connections that are
encountering IP packet loss in the network. Allow a TCP sender to
quickly infer a single packet loss by reception of duplicate acknowledgements
for a previously sent and acknowledged TCP/IP packet. This mechanism
is useful when the network is intermittently congested. The reception
of 3 successive duplicate acknowledgements indicates to the TCP
sender that it can resend the last unacknowledged TCP/IP packet
(fast retransmit) and not go into TCP slow start due to a single
packet loss (fast recovery).
DefaultTTL:
Specifies the default Time To Live value set in the header of outgoing
IP packets. The TTL determines the maximum amount of time an IP
packet can live in the network without reaching its destination.
It is effectively a limit on the number of routers an IP packet
may pass through before being discarded.
PMTUDiscovery:
Determines whether TCP uses a fixed, default maximum transmission
unit (MTU) or attempts to find the actual MTU. The value of this
entry is 0, therefore TCP uses an MTU of 576 bytes for all connections
to computers outside of the local subnet.
PMTUBlackHoleDetect:
When enabled, causes TCP to try to detect "Black Hole"
routers while doing Path MTU Discovery. Enabling black hole detection
increases the maximum number of retransmissions performed for a
given segment.
