Abstract

A method for communicating data in a network environment is provided that includes receiving one or more packets for establishing a communication session in a network and determining which of the packets should be delayed. A selected one or more of the packets are delayed for a designated time interval in order to extend a roundtrip time (RTT) parameter associated with the selected packets. The selected packets are communicated after the time interval has expired.
