Hi,

the retransmission limits can be set for a path and for assocs. They
define when a path or assoc fails. This does not make any sense for
streams. So you can not set it.

You could only think of limiting the lifetime of user data based on
number of retransmissions and use PRSCTP to drop the userdata. But
I do not see any application for that because you do not know how
long it takes to do n retransmissions. So using a real lifetime seems
to be better and makes sense.

Best regards
Michael

Hi,

In the drafts, it states about being able to set retransmission info for associations using struct sctp_assocparams. Is there a way to set different retransmission info for different streams, instead of associations?

By the way, I tried setting the retransmission info for an association using ext_setsockopt(), but I keep getting an error prompt that says SCTP_ASSOCRTXINFO undeclared. I tried searching for the declaration of this variable, but I can't seem to find it either. Does anyone know what's wrong?

Thanks a lot! :)



Oon, Heok Kee
