<DIV dir=ltr>I have a question on the TCP handoff. Let's assume that there is
an actual TCP connection between host-1 (H1) and Host-A (HA).
Meantime, host-2 and Host-A (HA) establishes a warm-up connection to be
handovered. Is it ever possible to replace the actual connection with the
warm-up connection let's say that because H1 moves? (is this against to the
end-to-end semantics of TCP?) If so, what mechanisms could be used to
achieve the handoff? (i.e. TCP stack modifications, socket layer
modifications, middleware on top of TCP, etc...)</DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr>I appreciate your answers.</DIV>
