Coordination of multipath traffic

摘要

In one implementation, traffic in a mobile network is directed across multiple paths to a single cloud server or security server (e.g., a security as a service). The mobile device detects a cloud connector through a primary connection based on an attachment or connection via a first interface of a mobile device. The mobile device sends a request to the cloud connector for an identification of a cloud security server associated with the cloud connector. After receiving the identification of the cloud security server, the mobile device directs one or more subsequent data flows or subflows for a second interface or another interface of the mobile device to the cloud server or security server. The second data flow and the second interface are associated with another network that is external to the enterprise network and trusted network connection or not associated with the enterprise network and the trusted network connection.

主权项

1. A method comprising:
connecting to a primary network through a primary interface of a mobile device; identifying a cloud connector through the primary interface of the mobile device; sending, using the primary interface, a request to the cloud connector for an address of a cloud security server associated with the cloud connector; receiving the address of the cloud security server; and directing a subflow from a secondary interface of the mobile device to the cloud security server, identified through the primary interface, through a complementary network, wherein the cloud security server is configured to identify malicious software formed from a combination of packets of the first data flow and packets of the second data flow.
