This document specifies the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP).  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.  The TCP header control bits from
RFC 793 have also been updated based on RFC 3168.

This document is a product of the TCP Maintenance and Minor Extensions Working Group of the IETF.

This is now an Internet Standard.

STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements.  Please refer to the current edition of the Official
Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the
standardization state and status of this protocol.  Distribution of this
memo is unlimited.
