This article details how to scale QUIC ingress for HTTP/3 connection migration, a challenge that arises when clients change IP addresses. Traditional UDP proxies, which rely on hashing the client's IP and port, fail when a client's IP changes, leading to dropped packets. The solution involves using eBPF (extended Berkeley Packet Filter) to steer QUIC connections at the kernel level, allowing them to persist even when the client's network path changes. This approach leverages Linux kernel features and is presented as a fix for naive UDP proxy deployments. AI
