Hi guys ,

this website is really good

have a small question about the example in this page

http://www.osischool.com/protocol/tcp/self-clocking

 

Does TCP adjust itself to the smallest bandwidth link or to the recieving interval of ACK ?

Well its actually the same

Well its actually the same thing if you think about it. If you look at the self clocking simulation  you can see that the smallest link effect the rate data segments are received and therefor determine the rate the receiever send  ACK.
