Title:
Methods and multi-home devices for establishing multipath connections
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP6324038
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
According to the invention, the method for establishing a multipath connection across multiple communication paths between a first and a second multi-homed equipments within a least one communication network, both equipments being able to support a multipath protocol, characterized in that said method comprises the successive steps of: - sending (E1), from the first equipment, main connection establishment requests across at least two communication paths between said first and second equipments; - receiving (E2), from the second equipment, at least one acknowledgement message across one of said communication paths; and - determining (E3), at the first equipment (C), as a main communication path, the communication path whereby the first one of said at least one acknowledgement message from the second equipment (S) has been received by the first equipment (C), in order to establish the main connection of said multipath connection across said main communication path.
