ABSTRACT:
A method for enabling multi-tuple TCP sockets within a computer network is disclosed. All possible connection paths between a first computer and a second computer are initially determined. Then, tuple information of all the possible connection paths are stored in a respective socket of the first and second computers as multi-tuple information. Next, one of the possible connection paths is designated as a preferred path and the remaining possible connection paths are designated as alternate paths. Finally, data packets are transmitted via the preferred path after a TCP connection has been established between the first and second computers on the preferred path.
