Acceptable Packets

Acceptable Packets

The following examples of packets sent from a machine not in the 'loop'
will help to explain the decision-making process on whether or not a
packet should be accepted:
CLT_SEQ=250
SVR_ACK=200
SVR_WIND=100
This packet will be accepted by the server, and stored for later use, as
the sequence number (250) of the packet falls within the acceptable total
of SVR_ACK+SVR_WIND (300).
CLT_SEQ=200
SVR_ACK=200
SVR_WIND=100
This packet will be accepted by the server, and processed, as the TCP
sequence number is exactly what the server is expecting.
