[dccp] A quick question about sequence validity windows




Hello

I have a question about sequence validity window, and would greatly appreciate it if someone could help me.

If I understand correctly, the sequence validity windows will slide forward if the receiver keeps receiving new data, because the GSR(greatest sequence number increase).

My question is, if this is true, some datagrams (old data around the low bound of the window) may become out of the range of the windows, in this case, what should we do about these data? drop them or send them to the application layer?

thanks
