Gated
In the realm of internet operation, managing the transmission delay across network links presents a complex challenge. Unlike tangible measurements, such as round-trip time, which suffer from varying conditions like congestion or disparate speeds, delay metrics necessitate a nuanced approach. To approximate the time delay, a sophisticated algorithm is essential for coordinating time synchronization among nodes, despite the intrinsic approximation. Routers, specifically Hello routers, adeptly manage this…-
