- Subject: [SCTP-Discussion] Question about RTO-Backoff and RTO-Masurement
- Date: Tue Mar 20 15:14:01 2001

Hello,
I got a question about RTO-Management in the pathmanagement-section
of the SCTP-prototype : The Rounttrip-Time measurement and the RTO-Backoff
mechanism are dependent of switches called chunksAcked and timerBackoff. So
the RTO-Backoff and RTO-Update will be done only once in a HB-periode.
My Question is : Why is this implemented this way ? I didn´t found a
corresponding chapter in the RFC-document. And : What will happen if someone
is disabling the HB ? Then no HB-timer is running and the used switches will
never be reset. This means no RTO-Backoff and no new RTO-Calculation is
possible.
Please can you tell me if there is a reason why those mechanisms are
implementet that way.
with kind regards / mit freundlichen Grüssen
