Hi Farhan,

the failover is based on the number of retransmissions. If you
want to do it based on other criteria you need to
- modify the sctplib
- do it in the application

Best regards
Michael

Hi all,

I noticed while testing sctplib that the switch over from one interface to another occurs only when the primary goes down. I would like to know if it is also posiible to switch the interfaces from the primary to the secondary based upon some other criteria such as high packet loss, congestion, etc on one link, or is it possible only when one link fails. Any comments will be appreciated.

Thanks,
farhan
