Hello, I've put aside multiple receives of UNREACHABLE notifications, and done some network packets captures, and actually found my mistake : I had downsized too much the 'rto_max' parameter, for quickier detection of unavailable peers on a fast network, but here its value was like the mean roundtrip time between hosts (given by the 'ping'), and from time to time, this retransmission timeout was exceeded ! Using a larger value for this parameter solved my problem :-) What could be a good rto_max value calculation from the mean RTT value between hosts ? Thanks for your help, Fred. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-sctp" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
