Abstract:
Techniques for electronic devices to control a multipath transmission control protocol (MPTCP) connection. An MPTCP connection between two endpoints may be established. The MPTCP connection may include at least one MPTCP subflow. At least one of the endpoints may be configured to act as a master with respect to the MPTCP connection. The master may perform one or more control operations on the MPTCP connection, while if one of the endpoints is not a master, that endpoint may not perform control operations on the MPTCP connection. The control operations may include initiating or establishing new MPTCP subflows or modifying a priority level of one or more MPTCP subflows of the MPTCP connection.

Claim (Index 15):
A non-transitory computer accessible memory medium, comprising program instructions that, when executed, cause an electronic device to:\n establish a multipath transmission control protocol (MPTCP) connection with a remote endpoint, wherein the MPTCP connection comprises at least a first MPTCP subflow and one or more second MPTCP subflows, and wherein the electronic device is configured to act as master with respect to the MPTCP connection; and wherein being configured to act as master with respect to the MPTCP connection enables the electronic device to designate the first MPTCP subflow as an active subflow and the one or more second MPTCP subflows as one or more respective backup subflows.
