The Socket API is the de facto standard of network API for many UNIX-
like and non-UNIX OSes. Many APIs that are exported to the user
space is either direct use or encapsulates the Socket API. The
Socket API has been extended to support IPv6. Recently, multiple
interfaces or multiple connection capable devices become more and
more common. But due to the limitation of the default route of the
host and other issues such as DNS selection etc prevent the
utilization of multiple interfaces/connections benefit. Moreover,
there is no API level support for the application developer to
utilize the benefit of the host's multiple interfaces/connections.
Starting with the requirement of MIF API extension, this document
introduces a new set of APIs to support multiple interfaces/
connections.
