Hi there all

I spend most of my time maintaining an embedded Linux appliance for a client
of mine.
One of the features of this client is that depending on connectivity types
etc. if has the ability to choose between several different TCP congestion
avoidance algorythms.

Now I have been approached by another client to produce a BSD derived system
(they're GPL alergic) and I would like to impliment a simmilar feature on
this new toolchain.
Where can I find out what congestion avoidance algorythms FreeBSD supports
and how to plug them in and out during runtime (not at boot) ???

Regards,...
Ross Cameron
