Subject: Question about SCTP_UNKNOWN
Date: Wed, 28 Feb 2024 18:55:42 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <dfd9791f-bafa-4592-b819-c805e98b5140@broadforward.com> (raw)
Hi,
Sometimes we observe that the remote address state (spinfo_state in
struct sctp_paddrinfo) of a single-homed SCTP association is set to
SCTP_UNKNOWN (0xffff).
At that time, nothing seems wrong with the single homed association; the
association is established and transmitting data.
Can someone explain to me what SCTP_UNKNOWN means? Is something wrong,
we do not know about?
The only thing I could find about SCTP_UNKNOWN, is the description in
sctp.h:
"UNKNOWN: Peer address passed by the upper layer in sendmsg or
connect[x] calls."
Not very helpful...
B.t.w. we use Rocky Linux 8.
Regards,
Marc
