Hi there,

I'm using the example programs included in socketapi-1.3.1 to test the
multihoming feature. Basically what I'm doing is on machine1 I have to
interfaces up and I'm starting sctpmultiserver as follows:


./sctpmultiserver -local=172.30.58.2 -local=172.30.58.20 -in=2 -out=2


Similarly I'm starting the client


./sctpterminal 172.30.58.2:echo 172.30.58.20:echo -in=2 -out=2


I have to mention that connecting to just one of these to IP's works
fine. But shouldn't it be possible to (by using the command above) turn
off one of these interfaces on the server side (using ifdown) and still
be connected. Unfortunately this only works for one interface (this must
be the primary one I guess). What's the problem?

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,
Patrick
