Hi Babu,

the SCTPlib does NOT support loadsharing. The only way
to achieve this through the API is the change the primary
path pretty often (for example before each send call).
Any other behaviour has to be developed by you, but you
get the source code. However, we provide support (finding
bugs and so on) only based on the sctplib API.

Best regards
Michael

Hello,

Thank you so much for the email. Could you please let
me know a little bit details? So far I know, SCTP does
not support load sharing in its current form. But I
would like to transfer data to all active paths
simultaneously using SCTP implementation provided by
www.sctp.de. And I also would like to make a
comparison of the performance (for example association
throughput) between Standard SCTP behavior(which
supports only single path data transfer; where
multihoming is used only for redundancy purpose) and
load sharing SCTP behavior(which will support
concurrent multipath transfer)? Is it possible? I am
using sctplib-1.0.1. Do I need to install new
sctplib-1.0.2 and API?

Thanks,
Babu

Hi Babd,

you can change the primary path whenever you want.
So there
is an API for you to do it. If you need more than
that, you
have the source code of the sctplib...
I hope this helps.

Best regards
Michael

Hello,

I would like to compare the performance of
Standard
SCTP and Load Sharing SCTP. May I check the
performance of load Sharing SCTP(Multi-path
transfer
SCTP)using this SCTP implementation?

Thanks,
Babu
