[Ecn-sane] [Bloat] quick question

[Sebastian Moeller]

Hi Jonathan, hi Erik,

that was helpful, thanks!


I now played around with tcpdump a bit an apparently:

tcpdump -i pppoe-wan -v -n 'tcp[tcpflags] & (tcp-ece|tcp-cwr) != 0' # TCP ECN flags, ECN in action

will allow me to quickly see whether I get ECE or CWR flags in my traffic, so I will use this for the next steam download to see whether there is any ECN activity. I guess ECN echos will be apparent as these are from my host, so I might simply reduce the logging to CWR.

	[SM] I run into this same issue from time to time ;), but even the reduced screen shot and the surrounding informatin was enough to find that "page" in the RFC.
