Multihoming in Homenet

Damien Saucez, Wassim M. Haddad · 2015

Multihoming becomes popular in residential and SOHO networks indicating the absolute necessity of fully supporting multihoming in Homenet. While the approach followed in Homenet is to delegate multihoming management to hosts, we propose to enable multihoming in Homenet by the mean of the infrastructure instead of the hosts.

Mobility–Multihoming Duality

Ryo Yanagida, Saleem Bhatti · Future Internet · 2024

In modern Internet-based communication, especially mobile systems, a mobile node (MN) will commonly have more than one possibility for Internet Protocol (IP) connectivity. For example, an MN such as a smartphone may be associated with an IEEE 802.11 network at a site while also connected to a cellular base station for 5G. In such a scenario, the smartphone might only be able to utilise the IEEE 802.11 network, not making use of the cellular connectivity simultaneously. Currently, IP does not allow applications and devices to easily utilise multiple IP connectivity opportunities—multihoming for the MN—without implementing special mechanisms to manage them. We demonstrate how the use of the Identifier Locator Network Protocol (ILNP), realised as an extension to IPv6, can enable mobility with multihoming using a duality mechanism that treats mobility and multihoming as the same logical concept. We present a network layer solution that does not require any modification to transport protocols, can be implemented using existing application programming interfaces (APIs), and can work for any application. We have evaluated our approach using an implementation in Linux and a testbed. The testbed consisted of commercial equipment to demonstrate that our approach can be used over existing network infrastructure requiring only normal unicast routing for IPv6.

Mobility vs Multihoming

Naveen Gundu · 2004

In current scenario, use of mobile and Internet has been increasing and the increasing number of users are coming forward to use new services like mobility and multihoming. Roaming users are interested to stay connected with network while moving from one network to another network with multiple network interfaces e.g. WLAN and GPRS. Problems which might arise when mobile host moves from one network to another network. Some mobility solutions have been introduced to ensure connections between networks, e.g., Mobile IPv4 & IPv6.

Driving user adoption of mobile apps through platform multihoming: The effects of multihoming delay and multihoming customization

Wondwesen Tafesse, Kathy Ning Shen · International Journal of Information Management Data Insights · 2024

• Multihoming delay is associated with lower user adoption of mobile apps in the multihomed platform. • Multihoming customization is associated with higher user adoption of mobile apps in the multihomed platform. • Both multihoming delay and multihoming customization have stronger effects on the adoption of hedonic than utilitarian mobile apps. • Mobile app developers face a trade-off between multihoming delay and multihoming customization. Developers release their mobile apps through multiple app store ecosystems to extend their reach and reduce their dependency on a single distribution platform and its governance mechanisms. While this topic has piqued the interest of a growing number of studies, key multihoming decisions faced by developers including when to multihome mobile apps and whether and how much to customize them for the multihomed platform have not yet been jointly examined. In addition, the potential role that the user value of mobile apps (hedonic or utilitarian) plays in developers’ multihoming decisions has largely been overlooked. To address these gaps, the present study jointly investigates the effects of multihoming delay and multihoming customization on the user adoption of mobile apps on the multihomed platform. It further investigates the moderating effects of the user value of mobile apps. The study employed a large dataset of mobile apps that were initially released through Apple's App Store and subsequently multihomed into Google's Play Store ( N = 24,906). By combining traditional count regression model with a machine learning approach, the study derives a range of theoretical and predictive insights that significantly contribute to the mobile app multihoming literature.

2SYN: Congestion-Aware Multihoming

Toledo, Kfir, Keslassy, Isaac · ArXiv.org · 2025

When sending flows to arbitrary destinations, current multihoming routers adopt simple congestion-oblivious mechanisms. Therefore, they cannot avoid congested paths. In this paper, we introduce 2SYN, the first congestion-aware multihoming algorithm that works for any destination. We explain how it dynamically selects a preferred path for new connections, even given previously-unseen destinations. We further demonstrate that it can be easily implemented in Linux. Finally, in a real-world experiment with either LTE or a wired link, we show how 2SYN dynamically adapts to the quality of the connection and outperforms alternative approaches. Thus, 2SYN helps companies better manage their networks by leveraging their multihoming capabilities.

The Paths Towards IPv6 Multihoming

2008

Abstract — Multihoming, the practice of connecting to multiple providers, is becoming highly popular. Due to the growth of the BGP routing tables in the Internet, the way to get multihomed in IPv6 is required to allow route aggregation in order to preserve the scalability of the interdomain routing system. After several years of development, the IETF and the research community propose drastic changes in how site multihoming shall be achieved in IPv6. Those changes will potentially affect the fundamental multihoming mechanism, as well as intradomain routing, traffic engineering and even the behaviour of hosts within the multihomed site. This paper presents the required functionalities and the constraints imposed to the solutions to the IPv6 multihoming problem. It surveys the main multihoming approaches that have been proposed to the IETF over the period 2000- 2005. It proposes a taxonomy, and compares the solutions according to their mechanisms, benefits and drawbacks. This survey also outlines the major steps that have led to a new multihoming architecture for IPv6. I.

Multihoming with ILNP in FreeBSD

Bruce Simpson · St Andrews Research Repository (St Andrews Research Repository) · 2016

Multihoming allows nodes to be multiply connected to the network. It forms the
\nbasis of features which can improve network responsiveness and robustness; e.g. load
\nbalancing and fail-over, which can be considered as a choice between network locations.
\nHowever, IP today assumes that IP addresses specify both network location
\nand node identity. Therefore, these features must be implemented at routers.
\nThis dissertation considers an alternative based on the multihoming approach of
\nthe Identifier Locator Network Protocol (ILNP). ILNP is one of many proposals for
\na split between network location and node identity. However, unlike other proposals,
\nILNP removes the use of IP addresses as they are used today. To date, ILNP has not
\nbeen implemented within an operating system stack.
\nI produce the first implementation of ILNP in FreeBSD, based on a superset of
\nIPv6 – ILNPv6 – and demonstrate a key feature of ILNP: multihoming as a first
\nclass function of the operating system, rather than being implemented as a routing
\nfunction as it is today.
\nTo evaluate the multihoming capability, I demonstrate one important application
\nof multihoming – load distribution – at three levels of network hierarchy including
\nindividual hosts, a singleton Site Border Router (SBR), and a novel, dynamically instantiated,
\ndistributed SBR (dSBR). For each level, I present empirical results from a
\nhardware testbed; metrics include latency, throughput, loss and reordering. I compare
\nperformance with unmodified IPv6 and NPTv6. Finally, I evaluate the feasibility of
\ndSBR-ILNPv6 as an alternative to existing multihoming approaches, based on measurements
\nof the dSBR’s responsiveness to changes in site connectivity.
\nWe find that multihoming can be implemented by individual hosts and/or SBRs,
\nwithout requiring additional routing state as is the case today, and without any
\nsignificant additional load or overhead compared to unicast IPv6.

An API for IPv6 Multihoming

Isaías Martinez-Yelmo, Alberto García-Martínez, Marcelo Bagnulo · Kluwer Academic Publishers eBooks · 2006

This paper proposes an API for Multihoming in IPv6. This API is based on the Hash Based Addresses and Cryptographically Generated Addresses approaches, which are being developed by the IETF multi6 Working Group. The support of Multihoming implies several actions such as failure detection procedures, reach-ability tests, re-homing procedures and exchange of locators. Applications can benefit from transparent access to Multihoming services only if per host Multihoming parameters are defined. However, more benefits could be obtained by applications if they will be able to configure these parameters. The proposed Multihoming API provides different functions to applications which can modify some parameters and invoke some functions related with the Multihoming Layer.

Goals and Benefits of Multihoming

Thierry Ernst · 2005

This document attempts to define the goals and benefits of multihoming for fixed and mobile nodes (hosts and routers), i.e. from a node point of view, as investigated in the Monami6 WG, and not from a site point of view as investigated in the Shim6 WG. Those goals and benefits are illustrated with a set of scenarios. This document is generic in the sense that the benefits of node multihoming can be shared by both fixed end nodes and mobile end nodes. It is intended to satisfy the first item as specified on the Monami6 charter and as such, working group approval as a working group document will be sought.
