Hideki,

Hi,
I want to execute the same application plural on one machine.
However, I not know whether or not the following is possibility.


1. case same IP(address), different Port

HOST 1 HOST 2
+------+ +------+
|UA 1 |association|UA 1 |
|IP=1 |-----------|IP=2 |
|Port=1| |Port=1|
+------+ +------+ same NIC
|UA 2 |association|UA 2 |
|IP=1 |-----------|IP=2 |
|Port=2| |Port=2|
+------+ +------+


This is possible ny registering two instance with different port numbers.
2.a case same Port, different IP (different NIC)

HOST 1 HOST 2
+------+ +------+
|UA 1 |association|UA 1 |
|IP=1 |-----------|IP=2 | NIC 1
|Port=1| |Port=1|
+------+ +------+
|UA 2 |association|UA 2 |
|IP=2 |-----------|IP=2 | NIC 2
|Port=1| |Port=1|
+------+ +------+
This is also possible by registering two instance with a disjoint set of
IP-addresses. But the forwarding must be in tune with this setup. If that
is not the case you may experience difficulties.


2.b case same Port, different IP (same NIC)(IP alias)

HOST 1 HOST 2
+------+ +------+
|UA 1 |association|UA 1 |
|IP=1 |-----------|IP=2 |
|Port=1| |Port=1|
+------+ +------+ same NIC
|UA 2 |association|UA 2 |
|IP=2 |-----------|IP=2 |
|Port=1| |Port=1|
+------+ +------+
Same as 2a. The SCTP engine only deals with IP-addresses, not with NICs.
Using alias addresses brings some OS dependency into the game. This will
work on *BSD, but I experienced problems on Linux systems (some time ago).


Best Regards,
