Is there anyway to find the actual TCP source code? I know we can find the different operations TCP performs but what is the actual code?
Thanks,

For what? TCP is a protocol and vendors implement the protocol themselves according to the relevent RFCs. Microsoft has theirs, Apple has theirs, Google has theirs etc etc. There are various open source implementations available. The Linux version is at http://lxr.linux.no/#linux+v2.6.37/net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.cQuote:

Rather than ask about "the actual TCP source code" you should have better described your actual problem!Quote:

My problem is this, I'm a studying Network Specialist at an IT college and I've been wondering for awhile, how TCP is actually implemented. We all hear about TCP, IP, DHCP, but I want to know the actual code behind them. Thankfully, I know that TCP is actually observed in RFC's which are then translated into some sort of usable code per OS.
Well, presuming there is a TCP/IP Protocol Architecture ( see https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/.../cc958821.aspx ) what layer do you mean to have source code for?
Hello guys! So where is solution? I need help with this issue too, can't find anything at the links you have posed. Best
