[Tuexen Michael] We do support multiple SCTP processes
on a host with disjoint sets of IP-addresses. But keep in
mind you have to set up the IP forwarding correctly which
may be difficult on Linux.

[Tuexen Michael] I'm not sure what the problem is. You only
need the assoc id and if you wnat to know the local and remote
port number of the assoc use the get_assoc_state (in pre10).

[Tuexen Michael] Answers are only obvious in math. And verifying this
can take some days...
