Multipath traffic management

Abstract:

One embodiment provides an apparatus. The apparatus includes client traffic management (CTM) logic. The CTM logic is to trigger implementation of a selected network traffic flow related to the client device, the triggering based, at least in part, on a network traffic flow related to the client device. The network traffic flow is associated with a connection and includes at least one subflow. Each subflow is carried by a respective path associated with the connection. The triggering includes at least one of constraining and/or adjusting an allowable throughput at a service provider for one or more of the at least one subflow. The selected traffic policy is to be implemented in a transport layer.
