    Hi Mahesh,

    The outstanding window is the number of un-acknowledged "bytes" at any
    given time. For every packet received, the outstanding data at that point
    is calculated as the number of bytes that are as yet un-acked.

    See http://www.tcptrace.org/manual/owin.html for a detailed explanation.
