Detailed Description

This unit test checks that the slow start and congestion avoidance behavior matches Linux behavior as follows: 1) in both slow start and congestion avoidance phases, presence or absence of delayed acks does not alter the window growth 2) in congestion avoidance phase, the arithmetic for counting the number of segments acked and deciding when to increment the congestion window (i.e.

following the Linux function tcp_cong_avoid_ai()) is followed. Different segment sizes (524 bytes and 1500 bytes) are tested.

This is the Slow Start test.
