@mptcp Great to see the list growing. On an (in particular mobile) client, AIU I'll need to run a daemon to register multiple addresses to make failover happen. Does a server (that often has its addresses configured statically and uses a single uplink) need to do anything more than enable MPTCP on its ports?

@chrysn @mptcp correct, with only one fixed link, there is nothing to configure on the server side!

The only modification that is needed is to configure the exposed services to accept MPTCP connections (or force them to do so with mptcpize or similar) 😉
