Transport Control Protocol (TCP) incast congestion happens when number of senders work in parallel with the same receiver where the high bandwidth and low latency network problem occurs. For many data center network application such as search, the heavy traffic is present on such server. Incast congestion degrades the performance as the packets are lost at server side due to buffer overflow and hence the response time will be more. To improve the performance this report is focusing on the TCP throughput, RTT, receive window. Our method is to adjust the TCP receive window proactively active before packet loss occurs. Our aim is to avoid the wastage of bandwidth by adjusting its size as per the number of packets. To avoid the packet loss the ICTCP algorithm has been implemented. The algorithm has been implemented in the data center network which is ToR.
