yes. To quote https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Security_Parameter_Index "This works like port numbers in TCP and UDP connections. What it means is that there could be different SAs used to provide security to one connection. An SA could therefore act as a set of rules." > effects of running multiple TCP connections over an IPsec.

(ESP/UDP could also if RSS/ECMP is critical) IPv6 would be an interesting academic exercise, but it's going to be a while before we get RDS-TCP to go over IPv6. --Sowmini -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
