Subject: [Softwires] DS-Lite & HOST_ID: experimentation results

Dear all,

We made some experiments using new TCP options to assess whether it mitigates some of the issues documented in RFC6269. The results of these experiments are available at: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-abdo-hostid-tcpopt-implementation-02

This effort focused also on DS-Lite (See Section 7); in particular to check if there is any performance impact.

Comments and questions about this effort is more than welcome.

For those who want to play with a modified AFTR supporting these options, modified iptables module or modified Linux Kernel, you can direct your e-mail to me.

Cheers,
Med
