I am looking for any protocol or type of protocol/application that runs over TCP/IP, and that packets of that same session "belong" (i.e. either destined or sourced) to/by
more then one
subscribers (meaning that each packet belongs to one
subscriber, but there are a some packets that belong to subscriber A, some to B,
etc.).
I am not talking
about tunneling protocol, as in their case the internal IP is the identity of
the subscriber, but I am talking about protocols that the identity of the
subscriber
resides at the
higher level, like the application layer, and the muxing between the packets to
subscribers can be done only if you understand the protocol at that high
level.
An example for such
a protocol is SMPP that is used for sending SMS messages of different
subscribers on the same TCP/IP session
between the SMSC and
the application server. There, the subscriber identity is embedded in the SPMM
protocol (above the TCP/IP).
I will appreciate your help as it will help in making a better design decisions.
Yours,
Haim.
