Abstract
A method of a server to establish secure multipath communications between the server and a user device includes establishing a WireGuard connection with the user device, establishing a first sub flow of a multipath transmission control protocol (MPTCP) connection with the user device using a first WireGuard virtual private network (VPN) tunnel, the first sub flow having a first path, sending a message to initiate a second path between the server and the user device, the message including a WireGuard interface address, public key for the server, and WireGuard indicator, receiving a reply message with a public key for the user device, and establishing a second sub flow of the MPTCP connection with the user device using a second WireGuard VPN tunnel, the second sub flow having the second path.
