It’s not implemented in the Linux kernel, but the latency penalty you’re describing is part of the “Happy Eyeballs” algorithm: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Happy_Eyeballs

It’s pretty common for IETF drafts to be substantially complete well before they are finalized as RFCs. For example, supporting ML-KEM in TLS is still a draft, but there are already multiple large scale deployments of it since the technical

I think that'll only happen when and if the corresponding drop in sales offsets increases in revenue from the subscription services owners will be forced to use. When they announced this originally for EVs it was clear the underlying m

The smaller switches like the Arista 710P are meant for deployment out at the edge of the network where you want something small and quiet (e.g. at people’s desks or in conference rooms) to provide more ports without needing as many runs ba

Yeah, the ClientHello message(s) are already part of the transcript signed by the server (and the client in mTLS) during the handshake

This reminds me of how Sarah at the Connections Museum in Seattle wrote a driver to allow an Asterisk soft PBX on a Linux box to speak revertive pulse signaling to the pre-DTMF trunks on their old telephone switches https://www.y

Many operators do configure the SIP signaling for VoLTE to use an IPsec transport terminated at the P-CSCF, but most (if not all) of them only configure IPsec to provide integrity protection.

With the industry pivoting towards focussing on post-quantum algorithms, I’d be surprised if yet another elliptic curve gains much traction.

The point was a prefix from 2600::/16 isn’t special; it’s just from one of the blocks assigned to ARIN. One ISP I know of with an allocation in that range is Verizon, which announces a number of prefixes over BGP in 2600:1000::/24

There’s a great book about the development of Cell and Xenon (which went into the Xbox 360) called “The Race for a New Game Machine” that was co-written by a couple folks who worked on them at IBM.

The use of IPv6 in cellular devices is specified by RFC 7066. When a device first registers for a data connection, the network provides an interface identifier to use for the lifetime of the registration, which is guaranteed not to conflict

You’re right that the signals have to be converted back into bits at the destination. Basically, this solves the problem of pumping those bits at high speed across traces on a circuit board vs within a chip. The longer a signal has to go, t
