Abstract
This note defines the Extended Sequence Number (ESN) experimental modification to TCP to increase TCP's sequence number using the TimeStamp (TS) option. It also modifies the Window Scale (WS) option to support larger receiver window enable by the extended sequence number space. At this stage, the purpose of this document is to discuss different design choices to generate discussion about the approach to follow.
