Question
which factor determines tcp window size? the amount of data the source is capable of sending at one time the number of services included in the tcp segment the amount of data the destination can process at one time the amount of data to be transmitted
TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) uses flow - control. The window size in TCP is determined by the receiver's buffer capacity. The destination (receiver) tells the source (sender) how much data it can process (buffer space available) at one time. This is to prevent the receiver from being overwhelmed with data.
- The amount of data the source can send is not the determining factor. The source can be capable of sending a large amount, but if the destination can't handle it, the window size adjusts based on the destination's capacity.
- The number of services in the TCP segment has no relation to the window size.
- The amount of data to be transmitted is not the factor. It's about the receiver's ability to process data, not the total data to be sent.
