Hi All,

Is it possible to have SCTP server application running over multiple interfaces (i.e multiple IP Addresses) and multiple ports over each IP Address ?? For example server application running/ listening over IP Addr 1:port1,port2,port3... and IP Addr2;portx,porty,portz...
An endpoint has only one port.
Here ports of IP Addr 1 can be different from that of IP Addr2.
How can we achieve above condition ??
The socket's api draft(draft-ietf-tsvwg-sctpsocket-07.txt) says that if you have multiple IP Addresses then all addresses should be bind to same port (see Section 8.1 sctp_bindx()). Above condition is contradictory to this statement.

I would be thankful for your answers/suggestions

Thanks
Rohit Agrawal
