It's a major extension to the TCP protocol, and historically most of the TCP changes failed to gain traction. Typically, Linux is used on the server side, and iOS/macOS as the client. Linux as a server Conceptually, the MPTCP design is pretty sensible. Typically, the server allows the client to reuse the server IP/port address.

In software, different systems agree on a protocol that describes the shape of the message. The protocol might be implicit, but typically, the more users a protocol has, the more it needs to be formally described. A protocol is not just an encoding, like JSON or XML. Without it, the message is meaningless.

To communicate with us, they choose a protocol such as RTMPS (Real Time Messaging Protocol Secure), SRT (Secure Reliable Transport), or WHIP (WebRTC-HTTP ingestion protocol) that defines how their content is packaged and transmitted. Each of these protocols is a way to transmit audio and video frames with various tradeoffs.

Anycast is tightly coupled with the BGP protocol, which ensures that the anycast route is advertised among autonomous systems (ASes) on the Internet. Packets to the anycast IP are routed through the shortest path to the server, reducing latency and improving service resiliency.

How Meta is enabling PQC Meta’s TLS protocol library, Fizz , is designed for high security, reliability, and performance. The use of our own implementation has allowed us to quickly react to new features in the TLS protocol. This allows a client to perform cross-host resumption to different servers in the same service.

In simple terms, Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is the protocol that routes traffic on the Internet. During a BGP route hijack, an attacker advertises IP prefixes from an ASN that is not the normal originator. During last week’s attack, the attacker was redirecting traffic that belonged to Amazon’s Route 53 DNS servers.

Border Gateway Protocol (more commonly known as BGP ) is the routing protocol that makes the internet work. In this case it was due to more specific prefixes that should not have been advertised. The entire RPKI process stands outside of the BGP routing protocol itself. It’s called RPKI. How Does RPKI Work?
