Architecture to fragment transmitted transmission control protocol (TCP) packets to a requested window size. Specifically, one embodiment of the present invention includes a method for implementing transmission control protocol segmentation within hardware. The method includes the hardware, implemented step of downloading a payload header of a data payload stored within memory of a host device. Furthermore, the method also includes the hardware implemented step of downloading a plurality of data segments of the data payload. Additionally, the method includes the hardware implemented step of repeatedly modifying the payload header in order to generate a plurality of frame headers which correspond to the plurality of data segments.
