Hi all,

I'm sending this here as well because it relates to the idea of "running the Internet over UDP" (which, I noticed, is presentation that Brian will give in MAPRG: https://datatracker.ietf.org/meeting/95/agenda/maprg/ ).
This draft explains how we think it should be done with TCP; we believe that it can have quite significant positive side-effects, mainly because of the opportunity to combine the congestion controls of multiple connections.

The draft also briefly discusses the issue of inserting an extra header (such as SPUD) in between the UDP and encapsulated TCP header.
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-trammell-spud-req-02#section-8.3 raises some concerns about such in-band SPUD signalling. What we found here is that this is quite unproblematic in case of TCP when inserted by the sender (it reduces the MSS and must be taken into account when calculating space on the sender side, but this really isn't a big problem).

Further discussion related to this draft should happen on the ICCRG list, please.

Cheers,
Michael

>> We have FreeBSD code, from which we can already confirm that the encapsulation is indeed relatively easy to do (as our draft states). However, it doesn't do the congestion control coupling yet; we're working on it. For that, so far, we have simulations - from these, we hope to be able to show some first results in BA.

>>> it makes it possible to precisely assign a share of the congestion
>>> window to the connections based on priorities.  It also enables use
>>> of UDP-based NAT traversal techniques, and it can act as a framework
>>> for experimentation with novel changes to the TCP standard.
