tinc devel - Nov 2008 - Multiple connections

Hi,

I'd like to establish multiple direct connections between 2 hosts. As far as
I can see, tinc doesn't allow this (when a new connection come, the old one
is
closed).
Is seach features maybe integrated to tinc ?

What is the status of 2.0 svn branch ?

Thx.

Manuel

Tinc does not handle more than one connection between two hosts. It does not do
load-balancing. However, it can do failover: just add all Addresses of a
multihomed host to its host config file.

Not very active unfortunately.

Yes, I've explored multiple tincd instances concept and trunking/bonding but
I've found that the best solution to have a deep control on which packets
goes to which vpn (which link) depending on packet type, link bandwith usage,
etc will be to manage this directly in a single tinc instance.
My need is to aggregate multiple links (with potentially different bandwith
and prefered usage) and manage QoS on them.
