Mobile user terminals allow to access different networks through several interfaces. Seamless communications is an essential requirement and service continuity is its main metric from user perspective. Mobile IPv6, ad-hoc routing, dynamic link layer protocol, SDN paradigm greatly facilitate mobility and network flexibility. Nonetheless, full mobility is limited by NAT routers or proxy agents, which break end-to-end semantic, as Performance Enhancing Proxies (PEPs), mandatory component over satellite networks to optimize performance. PEP spoofs TCP connections to end-users and hides connection context to the end-user control. Thus, any dynamic path change leads to the drop of the ongoing connections impairing service continuity. In this paper, we present an enhanced PEP implementation, Mobile-PEP, able to manage handovers without connection context transfer. Main operations and added value in several satellite-based operational scenarios are herein shown, leveraging on a Mobile-PEP prototype implementation. |
