Abstract

With the vigorous development of mobile Internet technology, real-time streaming media applications such as mobile short video and network live broadcast are becoming more and more popular. As a result, people have higher demand for the transmission rate and service quality of streaming media applications. However, the existing single-path transmission network can not meet the needs of people well. Many researches show that it is an effective measure to improve the transmission performance of network by using multipath transmission protocol. At present, MPTCP and SCTP are two multipath transmission protocols which are widely studied in the academic circle. Even so, the multipath transmission network based on multipath transmission protocol will also be attacked by LDDoS attacks and other network attacks, which will seriously affect the robustness of the transmission system and users’ streaming media application experience. Therefore, through the use of NS2 simulation software, this paper mainly studies the performance of MPTCP and SCTP protocols against the LDDoS attack, compares the robustness of the two protocols against LDDoS attacks, enriches the research related to network security of multipath transmission system, and improves the defense ability of multipath transmission system against LDDoS attacks.
