Hi,

what *exactly* do you mean by fault tolerance ?

SCTP is tolerant with respect to failures in the network
ONLY when your network has certain (physical) properties.

The program mini-ulp.c is not maintained any more, it
used to be a playground for tests.
For (simple) server programs have a look at discard_server.c
or echo_server.c

For client programs, we have provided terminal.c as an
example. Make sure, you understand the API provided in
<sctp.h> if you are using sctplib directly.
It is somewhat similar to what is described in section
10 of RFC 2960.

If you are using the combination of sctplib and socketapi,
this will give you ANOTHER standardized API, and the ability of
executing your application on more operating systems
(e.g. most BSD based systems with KAME and the Linux
Kernel SCTP stacks). Then the API is similar to what
is described in the socket api draft (see
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-tsvwg-sctpsocket-08.txt
for reference).
Examples for such applications can be found in the socket api
tarball.

Best regards,
Andreas
