Is this in freebsd possible and if it, how is it? Have a look at the SIFTR tool I've been working on. You can grab it from here: http://people.freebsd.org/~lstewart/patches/tcp_ffcaia2008/siftr_8.x.r195779.patch I use it to do exactly the sort of thing you're trying to do. > 2.) Which slow-start algorithm freebsd 8.0 is using as standard? (Reno, Cubic,...) The slow start method used is regular RFC2851. The congestion control algorithm is NewReno, but I also have patches enabling experimental use of other algorithms for research purposes. Happy to provide more pointers if you're interested.
