a work-alike replacement for T/TCP's functionality:
implementing things that just seem to "Make Sense". That's a model that
has been used and is used by other operating systems and those of us who
watch packets can attest that things that "Make Sense" often don't and
likely would have benefitted by a bit more thought and a bit more
vetting. I would be happier if something like this were vetted out a
bit more (written up, digested by folks, etc.) before it went into
anything but someone's experimental kernel. Just my two cents.
Sure. To make you sleep better it will be disabled by default (like T/TCP) and possibly even not compliled in by default (#ifdef'd). If enabled and compiled in it does not automatically enable itself for all and everything. The application has to enable it on the socket as well.
A writeup will follow once I get there. I made this request before I
start working on it to prevent to waste my time on it if people wanted
to religiously stick to T/TCP.
couldn't you do it with a spoofing interface?
i.e. tcp sessions going through get turned into something that loks like ttcp
on the wire and converted back at teh other end?
