 	Allows TCP to send "duplicate" SACKs.
 
 tcp_ecn - BOOLEAN
-	Enable Explicit Congestion Notification in TCP.
+	Enable Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) in TCP. ECN is only
+	used when both ends of the TCP flow support it. It is useful to
+	avoid losses due to congestion (when the bottleneck router supports
+	ECN).
+	Possible values are:
+		0 disable ECN
+		1 ECN enabled
+		2 Only server-side ECN enabled. If the other end does
+		  not support ECN, behavior is like with ECN disabled.
+	Default: 2
 
 tcp_fack - BOOLEAN
 	Enable FACK congestion avoidance and fast retransmission.
