“…In the following, SLX and SFX indicates the stateless and stateful tests, respectively, run with a number of X ELPs. SD stands for standard transmission, that is using basic LISP-MPTCP communications with LISP-TE stitching as in [4], [5] with two subflows. SD Y , SLX Y and SFX Y indicates the Y t h subflow used in SD, SL and SF modes, respectively.…”

“…Recently, for cases where at least one of the two endpoints belongs to a multihomed network registered to a Locator/Identifier Separation Protocol (LISP) [7] network, authors in [4], [5] investigate the opportunity of building a network overlay exploiting LISP border routers as multipath forwarding nodes for MPTCP subflows -the solution was named the Augmented MPTCP (A-MPTCP). The idea is to exploit endpoint network loose path diversity information, i.e., the IP routing locators (RLOCs), to balance different subflows over different loose paths that have chances of not sharing a bottleneck in the wide area network.…”

“…The idea is to exploit endpoint network loose path diversity information, i.e., the IP routing locators (RLOCs), to balance different subflows over different loose paths that have chances of not sharing a bottleneck in the wide area network. The proposed method in [4], [5] relies on a custom signaling between an MPTCP endpoint and the LISP mapping system to obtain RLOC information, used to compute the number of MPTCP subflows to which different edge-to-edge paths can be deterministically stitched playing on the 5-tuple identifier, assuming the hashing load-balancing logic at LISP routers is known by the MPTCP endpoint. While representing a novel promising approach, the proposal in [4], [5] has three main limitations in many IP operations: (i) deterministically knowing the correct hashing function at LISP routers may be impossible; (ii) modifying the MPTCP endpoint kernel as proposed may be unpractical; (iii) the loose edge-to-edge LISP-enabled paths may not systematically lead to a throughput increase due to subflow delay differences.…”

We present different design options to implement Augmented Multipath Transmission Control Protocol (A-MPTCP) communications via a Locator/Identifier Separation Protocol (LISP) Traffic Engineering (TE) overlay network. MPTCP allows a TCP connection using multiple subflows to maximize resource usage. LISP is a routing and addressing architecture that provides new semantics for IP communications, by separating the device identity (endpoint identifier) from its location (routing locator) using two different numbering spaces. Our proposition is to adopt a LISP overlay network with traffic engineering capabilities to steer MPTCP subflows across widearea Internet networks. The resulting augmentation consists of a subflow forwarding that can reach edge bottleneck capacity and surround inter-domain transit bottlenecks and inefficient paths. It can be particularly useful for cases where, even if endpoints are single-homed, inter-domain path diversity can be grasped by the LISP-TE network overlay. We specify the different modes at which this augmentation can take place, from stateless and light modes with very limited management in the network, to stateful and advanced modes implementable by a network provider desiring a higher control on the network. Based on extensive experimentation on the worldwide LISP testbed, we show that the achievable gains up 25% in throughput, while identifying required further improvements.

This paper investigates a novel communication system architecture for traffic management and data control in railway scenarios. The proposed solution should be integrated in the existing European Railway Traffic Management System/European Train Control System, the most advanced and successful standard even outside the European countries. Our system integrates public land mobile networks that usually offer best-effort packet services, with a quality-of-service (QoS) guaranteed satellite network. It represents a cost-effective substitution for 4G and 5G networks, aiming to replace current well-known GSM-R standard. The coexistence of heterogeneous networks is guaranteed by the multi-path transmission control protocol (TCP) protocol that addresses specific “add and drop” subflow policies and priority handling logics, in order to realize efficient seamless handovers. Providing priority to TCP subflows corresponds to select QoS-guaranteed, and the best effort networks able to fulfill railway requirements. The logic of adding and dropping subflows exploits both a real-time check of the current status of the serving network and “a priori” network performance information. Experimental results have been carried out in both city and harsh environments, where the main performance metrics (i.e., average delay, jitter, and bit rate) have been assessed
