   Title:   Congestion-Aware Multipath Tunnel Selection for Transport Services

Abstract:

   This document addresses the transport-layer challenges of path
   selection in environments with multiple available tunneling options
   and congestion control mechanisms.  It identifies congestion control
   conflicts that arise from nested tunneling protocols and proposes a
   congestion-aware multipath tunnel selection algorithm that conforms
   to the guidelines established in [RFC9599] for adding congestion
   notification to protocols that encapsulate IP.  The proposed approach
   considers Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) propagation,
   transport protocol characteristics, and network conditions to
   optimize path selection while avoiding multilevel congestion control
   issues.  This work aligns with current Transport and Services Working
   Group efforts on Non-Queue-Building (NQB) behaviors, careful
   congestion control resume, and multipath transport protocols.
