QSOCKS: 0-RTT Proxification Design of SOCKS Protocol for QUIC
Multipath TCP (MPTCP) is an evolution of TCP, capable of using multiple network paths to enhance resilience to network handovers. However, Server-side modification is the key challenge for deployment of MPTCP on a large scale. Therefore, a proxy-based design that uses SOCKSv5 over MPTCP was proposed...
