Classbased queuing cbq is a queuing discipline for the network scheduler that allows traffic to share bandwidth equally, after being grouped by classes. When using tcp to transfer data, sent out messages are not guaranteed to be received or handled by the receiver, and even worse, we often get unexpected disconnections due to network issues or program crash, so efforts have been made on recovery procedure to ensure both sides are synced.
