+# gRPC iOS Network Transition Behaviors
+On iOS devices, network transitions happen frequently. A device may have
+multiple interfaces to connect to network, and these interfaces may become
+broken or alive at any time. This document describes how these network changes
+should be handled by gRPC and current issues related.
+
+## Model
+We classify network connectivity in three categories: WiFi, cellular, and none.
+Currently, the network connectivity information is obtained from
+`SCNetworkReachability` API and the category is determined by
+`SCNetworkReachabilityFlags` as follows:
+
+| Reachable | ConnectionRequired | IsWAAN | **Category** |
+|:---------:|:------------------:|:------:|:------------:|
+|     0     |          X         |   X    |     None     |
+|     X     |          1         |   X    |     None     |
+|     1     |          0         |   0    |     WiFi     |
+|     1     |          0         |   1    |   Cellular   |
+
+Whenever there is a switch of network connectivity between these three
+categories, the previous channels is assumed to be broken. If there is an
+unfinished call, the call should return with status code `UNAVAILABLE`. All
+active gRPC channels will be destroyed so that any new call will trigger
+creation of new channel over new interface. In addition to that, when a TCP
+connection breaks, the corresponding channel should also be destroyed and calls
+be canceled with status code `UNAVAILABLE`.
+
+## Known issues
+gRPC currently uses BSD sockets for TCP connections. There are several issues
+related to BSD sockets known to us that causes problems. gRPC has a plan to
+switch to CFStream API for TCP connections which resolves some of these
+problems.
+
+* TCP socket stalls but does not return error when network status switches from
+  Cellular to WiFi. This problem is workarounded by
+  [ConnectivityMonitor](https://github.com/grpc/grpc/blob/master/src/objective-c/GRPCClient/private/GRPCConnectivityMonitor.m).
+  The workaround can be discarded with CFStream implementation.
+* TCP socket stalls but does not return error when WiFi reconnects to another
+  hotspot while the app is in background. This issue is to be resolved by
+  CFStream implementation.
+
+Other known issue(s):
+* A call does not fail immediately when name resolution fails. The issue is
+  being tracked by [#13627](https://github.com/grpc/grpc/issues/13627).
