Could you provide a tracefile of the network traffic readable by wireshark aka the successor of ethereal?
This would help.

You might want to send this directly to me (tuexen AT fh-muenster.de) and to Lode.

Best regards
Michael

Hi,

I have a new problem, a little connected with the one I had while I was testing SUA. I seem to be loosing SCTP association and I am not sure what is the reason of this. I noticed that, while I was running the test tool for SUA. Coene Lode wrote:

"The SUA implementation sends out a ASP_UP and then something is received from the remote peer...

That received message has SUA message class 6 , which means reserved....

So the SUA implementation decoder gives out a decoding error (telling it is a length error which is not factually correct...) So somebody is sending SUA msg with reserved message class to the SUA implementation.

The remote peer should not be sending that sort of message to the SUA implementation.."


My question is: How does the SCTP react if it gets as a reply a reserved message? Does it terminate the association? Is this message the reason for loosing association, or is it something else?

I attached a file with what the SUA test tool prints.
