Abstract
Methods and systems consistent with the present invention provide a mechanism for accepting extended amounts of data in a layered network protocol. The methods and systems thus allow the network protocol to more efficiently receive data and forward the data to the correct entity. As a result, the programs experience greater network data throughput. The methods and systems may be implemented in widely accepted Internet Protocol (IP) and Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) networks.
