In particular, micro-bursting is often caused by the use of the TCP protocol on such a network.

It's because the TCP protocol doesn't fit the application.

And that is the genius of the TCP protocol.

So the TCP protocol does all this great stuff.

So it's a relatively straightforward, simple addition to the existing TCP protocol.

Segmentation is often done by the TCP protocol in the host computer.

Such settings are typically disadvantageous for the more common TCP protocol.

The TCP protocol has a three state system for opening a connection.

And this is all the responsibility of the TCP protocol.

So there's lots more cool stuff to talk about in the way the TCP protocol operates.
