Which of the following TCP features allows a receiving computer to inform the sending computer that the transmission rate needs to be slower?

Three-way handshake
Flow control
Windowing
Connection-oriented

Explanation

Answer - B - The Flow Control TCP feature allows a receiving computer to inform the sending computer that the transmission rate needs to be slower.

Key Takeaway: Flow Control plays a vital role in controlling the speed at which the data is transmitted from a sending computer to a receiving computer. Many times, the receiving computer cannot match the bandwidth of the sending computer. Flow control modulates the data transfer at a speed that is acceptable to both computers.
