The data models defined by these modules may be used directly (e.g., to define a specific TCP client or TCP server) or in conjunction with the configuration defined for higher level protocols that depend on TCP (e.g., SSH, TLS, etc.). Examples ofother stackhigher level protocollayers.</t>configuration designed to be used in conjunction with this configuration are in <xref target="RFC9644"/> and <xref target="RFC9645"/>.</t> <t>The modules focus on three different types of base TCP parameters that matter for TCP-based applications: First, the modules cover fundamental configuration of a TCP client or TCP server application, such as addresses and port numbers. Second, a reusable grouping enables modification of application-specific parameters foraTCP connections, such as use of TCPkeep-alives.keepalives. And third, client configuration for traversing proxies is included as well. In each case, the modules have a very narrow scope and focus on a minimum set of required parameters.</t> <t>Please be advised that while this document presents support for some TCP proxy techniques, there are other TCP proxy techniques that are not part of thisdocument,document but could be added by augmenting the YANG module.</t> <section anchor="collective-effort"> <name>Relation tootherOther RFCs</name> <t>This document presentsone or morethree YANG modules <xref target="RFC7950"/> that are part of a collection of RFCs that work togetherto, ultimately,to ultimately support the configuration of both the clients and servers of both theNETCONFNetwork Configuration Protocol (NETCONF) <xref target="RFC6241"/> and RESTCONF <xreftarget="RFC8040"/> protocols.</t>target="RFC8040"/>.</t> <t> The dependency relationship between the primary YANG groupings defined in the various RFCs is presented in the below diagram.

TCP is an important transport-layer protocol in the Internet protocol stack, and it has continuously evolved over decades of use and growth of the Internet. Over this time, a number of changes have been made to TCP as it was specified in RFC 793, though these have only been documented in a piecemeal fashion. This document collects and brings those changes together with the protocol specification from RFC 793. This document obsoletes RFC 793, as well as RFCs 879, 2873, 6093, 6429, 6528, and 6691 that updated parts of RFC 793. It updates RFCs 1011 and 1122, and it should be considered as a replacement for the portions of those documents dealing with TCP requirements. It also updates RFC 5961 by adding a small clarification in reset handling while in the SYN-RECEIVED state.

Larsen" initials="M." surname="Larsen"/> <author fullname="F. Gont" initials="F." surname="Gont"/> <date month="January" year="2011"/> <abstract> <t>During the last few years, awareness has been raised about a number of "blind" attacks that can be performed against the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and similar protocols. The consequences of these attacks range from throughput reduction to broken connections or data corruption. These attacks rely on the attacker's ability to guess or know the five-tuple (Protocol, Source Address, Destination Address, Source Port, Destination Port) that identifies the transport protocol instance to be attacked. This document describes a number of simple and efficient methods for the selection of the client port number, such that the possibility of an attacker guessing the exact value is reduced. While this is not a replacement for cryptographic methods for protecting the transport-protocol instance, the aforementioned port selection algorithms provide improved security with very little effort and without any key management overhead. The algorithms described in this document are local policies that may be incrementally deployed and that do not violate the specifications of any of the transport protocols that may benefit from them, such as TCP, UDP, UDP-lite, Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP), Datagram Congestion Control Protocol (DCCP), and RTP (provided that the RTP application explicitly signals the RTP and RTCP port numbers).
