This draft is a work item of the Multipath TCP Working Group of the IETF.
Title : Architectural Guidelines for Multipath TCP Development
Author(s) : A. Ford, et al.
Filename : draft-ietf-mptcp-architecture-02.txt
Pages : 25
Date : 2010-10-19
Hosts are often connected by multiple paths, but TCP restricts
communications to a single path per transport connection. Resource
usage within the network would be more efficient were these multiple
paths able to be used concurrently. This should enhance user
experience through improved resilience to network failure and higher
throughput.
This document outlines architectural guidelines for the development
of a Multipath Transport Protocol, with references to how these
architectural components come together in the development of a
Multipath TCP protocol. This document lists certain high level
design decisions that provide foundations for the design of the MPTCP
protocol, based upon these architectural requirements.
