ab: Summary: We propose an architecture based on a hybrid E2E-ERN approach
    allowing ERN protocols to be inter-operable with current IP-based
    networks. Without introducing complex operations, the resulting E2E-ERN
    protocol provides inter and intra protocol fairness and benefits from
    all ERN advantages when possible. We detail the principle of this novel
    architecture, called IP-ERN, and show that this architecture is highly
    adaptive to the network dynamics and is compliant with every TCP
    feature, IPv4, IPv6 as well as IP-in-IP tunneling solutions. As a
    possible use case, we test this architecture as a potential candidate
    to replace Performance Enhancing Proxies (PEPs) commonly-used over
    satellite IP-based networks. Compared to splitting PEP, the IP-ERN
    architecture does not break the E2E connectivity, still achieves high
    satellite link utilization and fairness without needs of extra fault
    tolerant mechanisms.
