Claim 10:
11. A system comprising:
one or more processors; and
a computer-readable storage medium storing instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to:
transmit a packet to a network, wherein a component in the network determines an expected acknowledgement (ACK) sequence number associated with the packet; and
receive a different packet over the network, wherein the component in the network:
determines an ACK sequence number of the different packet received by the system;
determines that the ACK sequence number of the different packet does not match the expected ACK sequence number; and
ignores the different packet when the ACK sequence number of the different packet does not match the expected ACK sequence number.
