Hi Fabian,

I do not understand exactly what problems you have...
But it might have some impact to provide multiple
paths structures which describe the same path.

I'm sorry. but I can not help you there. There are some
Japanese guys who implemented ADD-IP and I think even
Andreas has implemented ADD-IP in a developer version.
However, this version is not supported anymore.

So it might be better to use an SCTP implementation which
supports ADDIP. Almost all kernel implementations do,
so you can use it on Linux, Solaris, FreeBSD, Mac OS X
and so on. But not on Windows (yet). We are currently investigating
a port of the FreeBSD implementation to Windows...

Best regards
Michael

Hi all,
we have started to target mobile devices based on a sctp solution.
Out solution is being testing first under Windows XP, and we are
facing some troubles.

What we do in SCTP lib?
Because we need to have a lot of paths, and dinamicaly add paths, when
we set the paths to sctp, we do it repeating the peer (like IP1, IP2,
IP1).
So we take off some controls of the lib, and we use the last path as
backup when we need another path. (We don't implement addip lib).
If we need this, we use SetPathStatus function (implemented by us) to
set te path parameters (looking at getPathStatus)

The problem now is that the sctp stop recieve for a lot of minutes,
and then continues doing fine the work.

There is someting that we are forgeting here?
Did you have any tips to warning us?

Thanks a lot for your time in advantage
