First, you definitely need to negotiate TS-support during SYN exchange IMO. Second, if you decide to turn on TS use in mid-stream, you have to decide what to do with non-TS packets - do you just always accept them? Let's say you declare all non-TS packets that come before TS-use to be "before" all TS-use packets (the non-TS to TS-use transition provides a a distributed systems "consistent cut") - we'll look at the other case below. In that case - which, AFAICT is the best you can do - you still have: - no PAWS protection within the non-TS set within a connection - no PAWS protection between different streams (that reuse the port-pair) during non-TS use The most dangerous time is when a connection starts - that's when you really need to avoid having things leak from previous connections that could have persisted beyond the expected MSL. So that's when you'd want to start using TS, but then you have no gain because (again, AFAICT) once you start using TS you should never turn it off. -------------- In the case where you CAN continue to flip back and forth between TS-use and non-TS, then *very non-TS packet* becomes a time-bomb for both this connection and future connections. That's what PAWS was supposed to avoid, but you're stepping right into it. ----- My conclusion is that if you turn on TS you have to do it at the beginning of a connection, or you might as well not use TS at all.
