Hi,

this mailing list focuses on supporting the userland SCTP implementation
sctplib. I hope that you are using the much better SCTP kernel implementation
available as part of your FreeBSD kernel.
Reaching the SCTP kernel developers is possible by posting to
sctp-coders AT lakerest.net

Regarding you problem: The host in the fixed network needs two addresses.
Why not route one of these addresses over the PPP interface. Then SCTP
should just failover to that interface.

Best regards
Michael

Hi All,

I would like to use my laptop as a multi-interfaced client in a SCTP testbed and I want to use the SCTP mutihoming ability. My laptop has two NICs (wlan,ppp) and use IPv6 addresses. When the wlan's connection losts, the laptop become unreacheable (if the default gateway is the wlan's gateway) due to only one default gateway under FreeBSD. I read a lot about policy and source based routing with "ipfw fwd" and I started the try this way, but "ipfw add 101 fwd pppgateway ipv6 from pppaddress to any" command always throw invalid argument error. (I built a kernel with proper options as the handbook said).

Is there anyone who face with similar problem?
