Abstract

This document describes how the experimental TCP option codepointscan concurrently support multiple TCP extensions, even within thesame connection, using a new IANA TCP experiment identifier.This approach is robust to experiments that are not registered and to those thatdo not use this sharing mechanism. It is recommended for all new TCPoptions that use these codepoints.
