Estimating the term…
A method, device, system and computer program for providing a transport distribution scheme for a security protocol are disclosed. A first packet data connection is established to a remote node for transmitting packet data over a network with a security protocol. An authentication procedure is performed with the remote node via the first packet data connection for establishing a security protocol session with the remote node. At least one security parameter is negotiated with the remote node for transmitting packets through the first packet data connection. A second packet data connection is established to the remote node, and at least one security parameter is negotiated with the remote node for use with the second packet data connection. The first and second packet data connections are handled as packet data subconnections associated with the security protocol session.

A method for communicating packet data between two endpoints over a Secure Shell session, the method comprising:
An apparatus for an endpoint of a data communication session, the endpoint being configured to communicate packet data with another endpoint over a Secure Shell session, the apparatus comprising
A system in a data network, the system comprising:
A computer program product embedded on a computer-readable medium comprising program code configured to control communication of packet data between two endpoints over a Secure. Shell session, wherein the program code is configured to cause authentication of the two end points to each other after an initial key exchange based on the Secure Shell protocol, and to cause, for the authenticated endpoints, establishment of at least two Transfer Control Protocol (TCP) subconnections for communication of data over the Secure Shell session.
