Abstract
A method for establishing a TCP connection between a first end-point and a second end-point includes: establishing a first TCP connection between the first end-point and the second end-point; the second end-point dynamically deciding on redirecting the first TCP connection via a chain of proxies that interconnects the first end-point and the second end-point; based upon a case of a redirection decision by the second end-point occurring, the first end-point establishing a new TCP connection with the first proxy of the chain of proxies; and establishing a segmented TCP connection between the first end-point and the second end-point via the chain of proxies and transferring data between the first end-point and the second end-point through the chain of proxies.
