| Research Abstract |
According to spread the 10 Gigabit network, servers could communicate in high speed by TCP/IP protocol. TCP/IP protocol detects packet loss and assumes available maximum bandwidth in the communication path. An Ethernet interface, generally used in network connection, transmits data putting from TCP/IP protocol stack at its maximum media rate. When TCP/IP protocol used for exploiting the average communication rate, an Ethernet generates packet loss at the maximum media rate. To avoid these packet losses, we tried to adjust the transmission speed from TCP/IP stack to Ethernet interface. We examine its effect in Linux servers.
