Abstract: A method for providing multi-path network access to a client in a network includes, by a first circuitry; i) providing routing of packets between the network and a first access network; ii) providing forwarding of packets within the first communication network; iii) intercepting packets from the client node destined for a destination node outside the first communication network; iv) forwarding the intercepted packets to a multi-path agent within the first network; and by the multi-path agent: i) receiving the intercepted packets from the first routing circuitry; ii) transforming the intercepted packets to multi-path packets supporting a multi-path networking protocol; and iv) forwarding, the multi-path packets to the first and/or second routing circuitry for further routing.
