Abstract:
Multipath TCP relies on the existence of multiple paths between end-
systems. These are typically provided by using different IP
addresses obtained by different ISPs at the end-systems. While this
scenario is certainly becoming increasingly a reality (e.g. mobile
devices), currently most end-systems are single-homed (e.g. desktop
PCs in an enterprise). It seems also likely that a lot of network
sites will insist on having all traffic pass a single network element
(e.g. for security reasons) before traffic is split across multiple
paths. This memo therefore describes mechanisms to make multiple
paths available to multipath TCP-capable end-systems that are not
available directly at the end-systems but somewhere within the
network.
