ACK ACK

ACK - Definition and Overview

In the Transmission Control Protocol, ACK packets are used to acknowledge receipt of a packet. They are used by both ends of the connection to move in between states, and are the basis of TCP's reliability.

In ASCII, ACK is short for the "Acknowledgement" control character (code 6).
