Hello,

I am trying to understand the following details about TCP implementation in FreeBSD (6.1).

- The sack.enable sysctl turns on SACK options (RFC2018)?

Yes.  It allows SACK to be negotiated during the SYN/SYN-ACK session
setup.

- Does the implementation leverage SACK information for retransmissions (RFC3517)?

Yes.

- Is Appropriate Byte Counting (ABC) available (RFC3465) now/in the future?

Not yet but in the future.  It is currently being implemented along
with a 'pluggable' congestion control framework for TCP.
