I'm not sure why you want to do this because usually SCTP does a pretty
good job to get the DATA to the peer.

However, as a user you can not chose an interface where the packet is
sent that easily. This depends on the OS and you might need to send
it at the link layer. So you can not use a raw socket. The sctplib
just let the kernel decide which interface to use. This depends
on the routing table and the destination address of the packet.

How can we do that? is the best option to modify the sctplib
implementation, changing the send() call? (adding the interface
parameter)

The is no interface parameter for the send call (at least on most
Unixes).

thanks you for your time.
best regards.
