SCTP Parameters

Defines the SCTP heartbeat Interval (in seconds), where a heartbeat is sent to an idle destination to monitor reachability every time the interval expires.

The valid value is 10 to 6,000. The default is 3. The value 0 disables SCTP heartbeat.

Note: Once configured, the parameter's settings apply only to subsequently (new) established SCTP associations.

Defines the initial retransmission timeout (RTO) in msec for all the destination addresses of the peer.

The valid value is 500 to 10,000. The default is 3,000.

Note: Once configured, the parameter's settings apply only to subsequently (new) established SCTP associations.

Defines the minimum retransmission timeout (RTO) in msec for all the destination addresses of the peer.

The valid value is 500 to 3,000. The default is 1,000.

Note: Once configured, the parameter's settings apply only to subsequently (new) established SCTP associations.

Defines the maximum retransmission timeout (RTO) in msec for all the destination addresses of the peer.

The valid value is 3,000 to 300,000. The default is 4,000.

Note: Once configured, the parameter's settings apply only to subsequently (new) established SCTP associations.

Defines the maximum number of path retransmissions per remote transport address before it is considered as inactive.

The valid value is 1 to 10. The default is 5 attempts.

Note: Once configured, the parameter's settings apply only to subsequently (new) established SCTP associations.

Defines the maximum number of consecutive association retransmissions before the peer is considered unreachable and the association is closed.

The valid value is 2 to 20. The default is 10 attempts.

Note: Once configured, the parameter's settings apply only to subsequently (new) established SCTP associations.

Defines the maximum number of DATA chunks (packets) that can be transmitted at one time (in a burst).

The valid value is 1 to 10. The default is 4.

Note: Once configured, the parameter's settings apply only to subsequently (new) established SCTP associations.

Defines after how many received packets Selective Acknowledgement (SACK) is sent.

The valid value is 1 to 5. The default is 2.

Note: Once configured, the parameter's settings apply only to subsequently (new) established SCTP associations.
