    The document discusses TCP segmentation and sequencing. It explains that TCP segments data into chunks up to the maximum segment size (MSS) of 1460 bytes. It also describes how sequence numbers are used to identify and order segments, with each connection using an initial sequence number (ISN) between 0-4,294,967,296. Segments contain the sequence number and acknowledgement number to keep track of the bytes transmitted and received.
