Plz explain this :
The amount of unacknowledged data at a sender must not exceed the minimum of cwnd (congestion window ) and rwnd ( receiver side window )
$LastByteSent - LastByteAcked<= min\{cwnd , rwnd \}$
What's the role of cwnd here ?
Unacknowledged data is already outstanding in the network so what's the relation between cwnd and unacknowledged packets here ?
