CUBIC for Fast and Long-Distance Networks
RFC 9438

Received changes through RFC Editor sync (created alias RFC 9438, changed abstract to 'CUBIC is a standard TCP congestion control algorithm that uses a cubic function instead of a linear congestion window increase function to improve scalability and stability over fast and long-distance networks. CUBIC has been adopted as the default TCP congestion control algorithm by the Linux, Windows, and Apple stacks.

This document updates the specification of CUBIC to include algorithmic improvements based on these implementations and recent academic work. Based on the extensive deployment experience with CUBIC, this document also moves the specification to the Standards Track and obsoletes RFC 8312. This document also updates RFC 5681, to allow for CUBIC's occasionally more aggressive sending behavior.', changed pages to 28, changed standardization level to Proposed Standard, changed state to RFC, added RFC published event at 2023-08-11, changed IESG state to RFC Published, created obsoletes relation between draft-ietf-tcpm-rfc8312bis and RFC 8312, created updates relation between draft-ietf-tcpm-rfc8312bis and RFC 5681)
