How do we use these networks?
TCP.
Used by most applications,
offers byte-oriented reliable delivery,
adjusts load to network conditions
[Labovits et al – Internet Interdomain traffic – Sigcomm 2010]
TCP is single path
A TCP connection
Uses a single-path in the network regardless of
network topology
Is tied to the source and destination addresses
of the endpoints
Mismatch between
network and transport
creates problems

Multipath TCP
Multipath TCP (MPTCP) is an
evolution of TCP that can effectively
use multiple paths within a single
transport connection
• Supports unmodified applications
• Works over today’s networks
• Standardized at the IETF (almost there)
Multipath TCP components
Connection setup
Sending data over multiple paths
Encoding control information
Dealing with (many) middleboxes

Sequence Numbers
Packets go multiple paths.
– Need sequence numbers to put them back in sequence.
– Need sequence numbers to infer loss on a single path.
Options:
– One sequence space shared across all paths?
– One sequence space per path, plus an extra one to put
data back in the correct order at the receiver?
Sequence Numbers
• One sequence space per path is preferable.
– Loss inference is more reliable.
– Some firewalls/proxies expect to see all the
sequence numbers on a path.
• Outer TCP header holds subflow sequence
numbers.
– Where do we put the data sequence numbers?

It’s as if they were all sharing a single

MPTCP makes a collection of links behave like a single
large pool of capacity —
i.e. if the total capacity is C, and there are n flows,
each flow gets throughput C/n.
Multipath TCP can pool datacenter networks
Instead of using one path for each flow, use
many random paths
Don’t worry about collisions.
Just don’t send (much) traffic on colliding
paths

MPTCP on EC2
• Amazon EC2: infrastructure as a service
– We can borrow virtual machines by the hour
– These run in Amazon data centers worldwide
– We can boot our own kernel
• A few availability zones have multipath topologies
– 2-8 paths available between hosts not on the same
machine or in the same rack
– Available via ECMP
Amazon EC2 Experiment
• 40 medium CPU instances running MPTCP
• For 12 hours, we sequentially ran all-to-all
iperf cycling through:
– TCP
– MPTCP (2 and 4 subflows)

Flow-to-core affinity steers all packets from one TCP-flow to

MPTCP has lots of L1/L2 cache-misses because the individual
