TIPC is implemented as a kernel module, present in all major Linux distributions. It can be configured to transmit messages either on UDP or directly across Ethernet. Message delivery is sequence guaranteed, loss free and flow controlled. Latency times are shorter than with any other known protocol, while maximal throughput is comparable to that of TCP.
