[Lksctp-developers] Douobt on using SAME TRANSPORT ADDRESS by two SCTP end points.

[Prabhushankar T <pra...@sa...>]

Hello

I was referring RFC-2960 and came across following lines while defining the
"SCTP endpoint" in page-11,
"A transport address used by an SCTP endpoint must not be used by another
SCTP endpoint. In other words, a transport address is unique to an SCTP
endpoint."

I wanted to verify this on my implementation, and hence tried firstly on
LKSCTP implementation. I found LKSCTP is allowing user to run 2 SCTP
endpoints to use SAMS TRANSPORT address. Is this behavior accepted OR is it
a defect? Please reply me.

If this is accepted, I feel RFC needs to be updated for this correction.

Thanks & Regards
