The General Internet Signaling Transport (GIST) protocol currently
uses TCP or TLS over TCP for connection mode operation.  This
document describes the usage of GIST over the Stream Control
Transmission Protocol (SCTP).  The use of SCTP can take advantage of
features provided by SCTP, namely streaming-based transport, support
of multiple streams to avoid head of line blocking, the support of
multi-homing to provide network level fault tolerance, as well as
partial reliability extension for partially reliable data
transmission.  Additionally, the support for datagram TLS is also
discussed.
