Enter Multi-Path TCP (MPTCP), which exploits the presence of multiple interfaces on a device, such as a mobile phone that has both Wi-Fi and cellular antennas, to achieve multi-path connectivity. It's a major extension to the TCP protocol, and historically most of the TCP changes failed to gain traction.

CCNA: TCP/IP Stack TCP/IP Stack is the most widely used protocol stack. TCP/IP stack is a conceptual model consisting of network communication protocols. It specifies how data should be packetized, addressed, transmitted, and routed across the network. CCNA RnS Article #28: Why Spanning Tree Protocol?

Internet protocol specifications are instructions designed for engineers to build things. Protocol designers take great care to ensure the documents they produce are clear. HTTP/3 is an application protocol that maps HTTP semantics to QUIC, such as defining how HTTP requests and responses are assigned to individual QUIC streams.

On a network, configurations are constantly changing. Unfortunately, configuration change accidents can happen that bring down parts of the network. Interface dropping packets. Interface issues caused by misconfigurations, errors, or queue limits lead to network traffic failing to reach its destination.

In most cases, these patterns are evaluated on a single network packet, rather than a sequence of flows between a client host and a server. There exist several protocols, from different network layers that can be used for OS fingerprinting. Figure 1 displays these protocols, based on the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model.

While redundancy is a significant contributor to network resilience, other mechanisms, protocols, and methods can also contribute to overall network resilience. Additional network resilience mechanisms Successfully routing a packet over the internet from its source to its destination is not trivial.

Flow-based network monitoring relies on collecting information about packet flows (i.e. a sequence of related packets) as they traverse routers, switches, load balancers, ADCs, network visibility switches, and other devices. IPFIX is an IETF standards-based protocol that is largely modeled on NetFlow v9. Interface Counters.
