Title : QUIC-LB: Generating Routable QUIC Connection IDs

Abstract:
QUIC address migration allows clients to change their IP address
while maintaining connection state. To reduce the ability of an
observer to link two IP addresses, clients and servers use new
connection IDs when they communicate via different client addresses.
This poses a problem for traditional "layer-4" load balancers that
route packets via the IP address and port 4-tuple. This
specification provides a standardized means of securely encoding
routing information in the server's connection IDs so that a properly
configured load balancer can route packets with migrated addresses
correctly. As it proposes a structured connection ID format, it also
provides a means of connection IDs self-encoding their length to aid
some hardware offloads.
