Abstract:
This document proposes a modification of the MPTCP handshake that
allows it to work efficiently with stateless servers. We first
identify the issues around stateless connection establishment using
SYN-cookies. Further, we suggest an extension to Multipath TCP to
overcome these issues and discuss alternatives.
As a side-effect, the proposed modification to the handshake opens
the door to reduce the size of the MP_CAPABLE option in the SYN.
This reduces the growing pressure on the TCP-option space in the SYN-
segment, giving space for future extensions to TCP.
