Abstract
The present invention provides a method for seamless multi-link network connectivity, wherein such method utilizes a plurality of connections at the same time by providing an application-sensitive seamless connectivity between two end systems via several links so that the data are seamlessly transmitted among these links. In the method of the present invention when one link fails, the traffic is automatically transmitted via the available links of said plurality of connections and when it comes back up, it is automatically used again. In the method of the present invention when more than one link is active and the Quality of Service needs of an application can't be met by using a single link, more than one link is used through load-balancing mechanism. Said method provides the best possible service for each type of application based on its own Quality of Service requirements.
