Re: problem with enabling SCTP heartbeat

Mohammad,

Did you think that 0x5000 represented 5 seconds?  If you still
do, how did you come to that conclusion?  I think that if
spp_hbinterval is in milliseconds (which it is), 0x5000 would
be 20.480 seconds, not 5.000 seconds.

Are there some other members of the sp structure that you think
that you might need to set?  (For example, you might consider
setting the SPP_HB_ENABLE flag in the spp_flags member.  You
might also consider zeroing the spp_assoc_id and spp_address
members.)

Read draft-ietf-tsvwg-sctpsocket-xx.txt, where xx is the latest
release of that draft (15, I think -- no, not 0x15 ;).
Questions on that draft can be directed to [email protected]
instead of this mailing list.

Questions on the linux kernel can be directed to many of the
mailing lists at kernel.org, see http://www.kernel.org/ for a
tutorial on reporting bugs there.
