TCP Flow Control
TCP inherently supports flow control to prevent buffer overflow at the receiver
Useful for fast sender transmitting to slower receiver
Receiver advertises a window (wnd) in acknowledgements returned to the sender
Sender cannot send more than wnd unacknowledged bytes to the receiver
