Passive Identification and Analysis of TCP Anomalies

Overview This paper focuses on passive measurements of TCP traffic, main component of traffic. It proposes a heuristic technique for the classification of the anomalies that may occur during the lifetime of a TCP flow, such as out-of-sequence and duplicate segments. Since TCP is a closed-loop protocol that infers network conditions by means of losses and reacts accordingly, the possibility of carefully distinguishing the causes of anomalies in TCP traffic is very appealing, since it may be instrumental to the deep understanding of TCP behavior in real environments and to protocol engineering as well. This paper applies the proposed heuristic to traffic traces collected at both networks edges and backbone links.
