Class ConnectionHandler

java.lang.Object
io.netty.channel.ChannelHandlerAdapter
io.netty.channel.ChannelInboundHandlerAdapter
io.netty.channel.ChannelDuplexHandler
org.drasyl.handler.connection.ConnectionHandler
All Implemented Interfaces:
io.netty.channel.ChannelHandler, io.netty.channel.ChannelInboundHandler, io.netty.channel.ChannelOutboundHandler
public class ConnectionHandler extends io.netty.channel.ChannelDuplexHandler
This handler provides reliable and ordered delivery of bytes between hosts. The protocol is heavily inspired by the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP), but neither implement all features nor it is compatible with it.

This handler mainly implements RFC 9293 Transmission Control Protocol (TCP), but also includes TCP Timestamps Option and RTTM Mechanism as described in RFC 7323 TCP Extensions for High Performance. Furthermore, the congestion control algorithms slow start, congestion avoidance, fast retransmit, and fast recovery as described in RFC 5681 TCP Congestion Control are implemented as well.

The Nagle algorithm is used as "Silly Window Syndrome" avoidance algorithm. To improve performance of recovering from multiple losses, the RFC 2018 TCP Selective Acknowledgment Options is used in conjunction with .

The handler can be configured to perform an active or passive OPEN process.
