The protocol of the present invention includes two new first level protocols and several embodiments of a second level protocol. The two new first level protocols of the present invention include the TCP2B protocol and the TCP2E protocol. In the TCP2B protocol, both client and server indicate their support for this protocol using one or more bits in TCP header. According to the TCP2B protocol, the client retransmits its requested options in the ACK message so the server need not store the options after the connection request. In the TCP2E protocol, the server maintains a Friends Table listing addresses of device recently observed to be complying with TCP. If a client's address is on the Friends Table, the connection request is processed according to TCP. Otherwise, the server sends an ACK message to the client to prompt the client to send a reset message. The client's address can then be added to the Friends Table.

Le protocole de la présente invention comprend deux nouveaux protocoles de premier niveau et plusieurs réalisations d'un protocole d'un second niveau. Les deux nouveaux protocoles de premier niveau comprennent le protocole TCP2B et le protocole TCP2C. Dans le protocole TCP2B, le client et le serveur indiquent leur support destiné à ce protocole au moyen d'un ou plusieurs bits dans l'en-tête du protocole. Selon le protocole TCP2B, le client retransmet ses options demandées dans le message ACK de sorte que le serveur n'ait pas besoin d'enregistrer les options après la demande de raccordement. Dans le protocole TCP2E, le serveur conserve une "Friends Table" répertoriant les adresses des terminaux dont on a découvert récemment qu'ils étaient compatibles avec TCP. Si une adresse client se trouve dans la "Friends Table", la demande de raccordement est traitée conformément à TCP. Sinon, le serveur envoie un message ACK au client pour inciter ce dernier à envoyer un message de remise à zéro. L'adresse client peut être ensuite ajoutée à la "Friends Table".
