Abstract
A technique for managing communications over a network maintains multiple network paths simultaneously, exchanging the same data redundantly through the network paths and allowing a receiver to select one of the network paths as its source of data. In the event that a first, currently-selected network path becomes weak, for example, the receiver automatically and seamlessly switches its source of data to a second network path, while the first network path remains operational.
