Yes.



But RFC 4666 section 1.3.2.4 says that,



In order to avoid redundant SCTP associations between two M3UA peers, one side (client) SHOULD be designated to establish the SCTP association, or

M3UA configuration information maintained to detect redundant associations (e.g., via knowledge of the expected local and remote SCTP endpoint addresses).



Can you clarify on this?



And also can you provide any use cases to have multiple sctp associations between two ASP?

Yes.



But a particular implementation is not required to support

multiple associations in this fashion.
