Failover with zero packets lost

Open gorzelak opened this issue 9 years ago • 2 comments

Hi,

In my scenario I have two WIFI connections, Ubuntu 15.10 and latest MLVPN.

When I test my configuration by connecting or disconnecting one of my WIFI routers I can see that several (2-3) ping packets are lost. At the same time all open tcp multimedia streams get disconnected.

My mlvpn.conf on both side (server and client) have such lines:

timeout = 3 reorder_buffer_size = 64 loss_tolerence = 1

Is it possible to build a "bulletproof" failover solution (zero packets lost)?

Thanks in advance. Krzysztof

It's not possible to have zero packet loss with current implementation.

It could be done by having ACKs or by implementing packet duplication on all links.
