- MultiPath TCP (MPTCP) is an effort towards enabling the simultaneous use of several IP-addresses/interfaces by a modification of TCP that presents a regular TCP interface to applications, while in fact spreading data across several subflows. Benefits of this include better resource utilization, better throughput and smoother reaction to failures.

This replaces the normal TCP stack with a Multipath TCP stack,

able to use several paths at once.

Support for selection of different path-managers. You should choose 'Y' here,
|

because otherwise you will not actively create new MPTCP-subflows.

---help---
|
|
This path-management module will create multiple subflows between the same
|
|
pair of IP-addresses, modifying the source-port. You can set the number
|
|
of subflows via the mptcp_ndiffports-sysctl.

depends on (MPTCP=y)
|
|
---help---
|
|
This path-management module works like ndiffports, and adds the sysctl
|
|
option to set the gateway (and/or path to) per each additional subflow
|
|
via Loose Source Routing (IPv4 only).

|

This path-management module is controlled over a Netlink interface. A userspace
|
|
module can therefore control the establishment of new subflows and the policy
|
|
to apply over those new subflows for every connection.
