The TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) is known to be a stateful protocol. Thus, it guarantees reliability during data transmissions, ensuring that packets are delivered correctly from the sender to the receiver. Which structure of ordering control does TCP implement to keep track of data transmitted and when it is determined?
sequence number, 3-way handshake
None, since TCP is a stateless protocol, like HTTP
sequence number, TCP slow start
byte id, TCP slow start
"TCP uses a sequence number to identify each byte of data. The sequence number identifies the order of the bytes sent from each computer so that the data can be reconstructed in order, regardless of any packet reordering, or packet loss that may occur during transmission. The sequence number of the first byte is decided during the initial 3-way handshake. This number can be arbitrary, and should in fact be unpredictable to defend against TCP sequence prediction attacks."
