-<p>The performance of the existing Symbian platform TCP/IP stack is improved
-by doing the following:</p>
-<ul>
-<li id="GUID-00E77774-7DC6-513E-9CC3-46B499B4C196"><p>Setting an initial TCP
-receive window size that depends on the <xref href="GUID-8A678AE5-A133-58EA-A4DD-B5BFC94D3AEA.dita#GUID-8A678AE5-A133-58EA-A4DD-B5BFC94D3AEA/GUID-CDAA0409-6ECB-5ABB-A0E5-F7C5C58E6347">bearer
-type</xref>. </p> <p> </p> </li>
-<li id="GUID-22A70B8B-AD26-5898-8505-79F5434B5971"><p>Allowing the TCP receive
-window size to dynamically resize when there is a change in modulation. For
-example, GPRS to EDGE or 2G to 3G. </p> </li>
-</ul>
-<p>Bearers provide different bandwidth for data transmission using TCP/IP.
-The connection setup between TCP hosts are through three-way handshake. The
-TCP receive window size parameter is set during the connection startup. </p>
-<p>To indicate the TCP receive window size, the TCP header contains a 16-bit
-window field. The TCP receive window size denotes the maximum number of bytes
-that a sender can send and a receiver can receive. The TCP header can have
-any value between 0 and 64KB. Use the <xref href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1323.txt" scope="external">TCP window scaling</xref> to increase the window size beyond
-64kB. The sender and receiver must agree to the scaling factor. The scaling
-factor can be multiplied at both the ends to increase the window size. For
-example, if the scaling factor is 2 and the window size negotiated is 96KB,
-then the stored window size is 48KB. Also a scaling factor of 2 yields the
-effective size of 96KB. The TCP receive maximum window size is mentioned in <codeph>tcpip.ini</codeph> file. </p>
-<p>At ROM build time, the (NetMCPR) plug-in configures the TCP receive window.
-It is possible to enable or disable the adaptive window size based on the
-bearer type. This helps some bearers to use adaptive window size and other
-bearers to use fixed pre-defined windows. The <xref href="GUID-8A678AE5-A133-58EA-A4DD-B5BFC94D3AEA.dita#GUID-8A678AE5-A133-58EA-A4DD-B5BFC94D3AEA/GUID-E1123CF2-EA87-5F18-8F3C-3FD98DD6ABE8">lookup
-table</xref> provides the information on TCP receive window size at licensees
-specific MCPR (NetMCPR). Licensees are provided with the TCP receive window
-interface. </p>
-<p>TCP receive window must be changed due to the following reasons: </p>
-<ul>
-<li id="GUID-4E46CC4D-3CFA-5078-B801-9E0F20857CC8"><p>Change in modulation
-due to the network change - modulation value for bearer varies in different
-network. Modulation change in the network triggers the notification to change
-the TCP receive window for the connected TCP sockets. For example, change
-in network from 2.5G to 3G. </p> </li>
