N2 - The Symbiotic Packet Processing Architecture is a framework for the exploitation of packet header coding redundancy. Packet headers show coding redundancy from both a practical and a design perspective. The focus of this paper is on the experimental evaluation of this framework. This is accomplished using the proof of concept design and implementation of a novel in-band, path-coupled signaling protocol for IPv4/IPv6. The implementation of this signaling protocol is being carried out based on the ns21 simulator. Ns2 simulation results are then compared with similar RSVP-ns22 simulations carried out in identical conditions. Further, simulation results show that while being more lightweight than RSVP, the performance of the in-band signaling protocol presented in this paper is very close if not identical to that of RSVP in ns2.
