Title : Extended TCP Option Space in the Payload of an Alternative SYN
Author : Bob Briscoe
Filename : draft-briscoe-tcpm-syn-op-sis-00.txt
Pages : 9
Date : 2014-07-21
Abstract:
This document describes an experimental method to extend the option
space for connection parameters within the initial TCP SYN segment at
the start of a TCP connection. In this method the TCP client sends
two alternative SYNs: one intended for legacy servers and one
intended for upgraded servers. Once it establishes which type of
server has responded, it continues the connection appropriate to that
server type and aborts the other. The SYN intended for upgraded
servers includes additional options at the end of the payload.
