Question about SCTP_UNKNOWN

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

Sometimes we observe that the remote address state (spinfo_state in struct sctp_paddrinfo) of a single-homed SCTP association is set to SCTP_UNKNOWN (0xffff).

At that time, nothing seems wrong with the single homed association; the association is established and transmitting data.

Can someone explain to me what SCTP_UNKNOWN means? Is something wrong, we do not know about?

The only thing I could find about SCTP_UNKNOWN, is the description in sctp.h:

"UNKNOWN: Peer address passed by the upper layer in sendmsg or connect[x] calls."

Not very helpful...

B.t.w. we use Rocky Linux 8.

Regards,

Marc
