Making use of multiple paths is beneficial, improving resource These paths need not be entirely disjoint: they may To simplify the design, we assume that the presence of multipleĪddresses at a host is sufficient to indicate the existence of O It can be assumed that one or both hosts are multihomed and O It must be backwards-compatible with current, regular TCP, to Group imposed two key constraints on the Multipath TCP design In order to limit the potentially huge design space, the working MPTCP, and as a consequence of these factors, what API extensions Have on applications, what applications will want to do with O Application considerations discusses what impact MPTCP will O Congestion control presents a safe congestion controlĪlgorithm for coupling the behavior of the multiple paths in order Separation through which an extensible MPTCP implementation can be This design is based, and an explanation of a functional TCP, contains a discussion of high-level design decisions on which O Architecture, which explains the motivations behind Multipath Thisĭocument is complemented by three others: Required to create a Multipath TCP implementation, however. Multiple paths ("subflows"), managing these subflows, reassembly ofĭata, and termination of sessions. Thisĭocument presents the protocol changes required to add multipathĬapability to TCP specifically, those for signaling and setting up Provide a Multipath TCP service, which enables a transportĬonnection to operate across multiple paths simultaneously. Multipath TCP (MPTCP) is a set of extensions to regular TCP to Address Knowledge Exchange (Path Management). Requesting a Change in a Path's Priority.
