This is the current BETA release of the Linux Kernel SCTP reference

implementation.

implementation.
|
||||
|

SCTP (Stream Control Transmission Protocol) is a IP based, message oriented,
|
||||
reliable transport protocol, with congestion control, support for
|
||||
transparent multi-homing, and multiple ordered streams of messages.
|
||||
RFC2960 defines the core protocol. The IETF SIGTRAN working group originally
|
||||
developed the SCTP protocol and later handed the protocol over to the
|
||||
Transport Area (TSVWG) working group for the continued evolvement of SCTP as a
|
||||
general purpose transport.

The initial project goal is to create an Linux kernel reference implementation
|
||||
of SCTP that is RFC 2960 compliant and provides an programming interface
|
||||
referred to as the UDP-style API of the Sockets Extensions for SCTP, as
|
||||
proposed in IETF Internet-Drafts.

-lksctp can be built as statically or as a module. However, be aware that
|

module removal of lksctp is not yet a safe activity.

-There is tentative support for IPv6, but most work has gone towards

implementation and testing lksctp on IPv4.
