Abstract:
The present invention is directed towards systems and methods for multipath transmission control protocol connection (MPTCP) management. A first device, intermediary between a second device and a third device, may establish a protocol control structure responsive to establishment of a MPTCP session between the first device and the second device. The first device may maintain, via the protocol control structure, an identification of a plurality of subflows comprising transmission control protocol (TCP) connections in the MPTCP session between the first device and the second device. The first device may convert or translate, via the protocol control structure, subflow-specific sequence identifiers of packets transmitted via each of the plurality of subflows, to sequence identifiers unique across the plurality of subflows and identifying related packets from each subflows to be processed at the third device. The third device may receive the packets with the converted sequence identifiers in a single TCP connection.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to methods and systems for dynamically changing an advertised window for a transport layer connection. A device can receive data from a server destined for an application. The device identifies the size of the application buffer corresponding to the application and advertises the application buffer size as a window size to the server. The device stores the data in the device memory. The device then determines the memory usage by comparing the memory usage to one or more predetermined thresholds. If the device determines that the memory usage is below a first predetermined threshold, the device can implement an aggressive dynamic receive buffering policy in which the device increases the advertised window size by a first increment. If the device determines that the memory usage is above the first threshold and below a second threshold, the device executes a more conservative dynamic receive buffering policy.

Abstract:
Methods and systems for providing congestion control to a transport control protocol implementation are described. A device detects that there is a congestion event on a transport control protocol (TCP) connection of the device. The device determines that a bandwidth estimate is lower than half a current value of a slow start threshold for the TCP connection. In response to the determination, the device changes the slow start threshold to half of the current value of the slow start threshold for the TCP connection. The bandwidth estimate can be the product of the eligible rate estimate and the minimum round trip time. In some implementations, the transport control protocol implementation is a TCP Westwood implementation.
