1. TML, Espoo1 An Evaluation of Identity-Locator Split with Legacy End-hosts and Applications Master Thesis Tao Wan 22 April 2009 Supervisor: Professor Sasu Tarkoma Instructor: M.Sc Miika Komu (Tech)‏

2. TML, Espoo2 Agenda Motivation Motivation TCP user timeout TCP user timeout TCP retransmission trigger TCP retransmission trigger TCP measurements TCP measurements Future work and Conclusion Future work and Conclusion

3. TML, Espoo3 Motivation  HIP requires changes to the networking stack, challenging to deploy  TCP is the bottleneck for mobility  Referrals problem Applications passing HIT or LSI Applications passing HIT or LSI Client apps already doomed due to NATs Client apps already doomed due to NATs

4. TML, Espoo4 TCP user timeout option  Allows one end of a connection to advertise its current user timeout value to its peer  Allows hosts to request both specific user timeouts for new connections and request changes to the effecitve user timeouts of established connections.  Allows hosts to exchange per-connection user timeout requests to shutdown the connection

5. TML, Espoo5 TCP Retransmissons Trigger To signal the retransmission trigger depends on the specifics of a host and its environment To signal the retransmission trigger depends on the specifics of a host and its environment The TCP retransmission trigger does not change the semantics of TCP, just increases performance The TCP retransmission trigger does not change the semantics of TCP, just increases performance
