1. Overview
This module provides SCTP transport layer for Kamailio. SCTP is an
acronym for Stream Control Transmission Protocol, read more about it
at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stream_Control_Transmission_Protocol
The module itself implements the callbacks required by the core to
receive and send SIP messages over SCTP sockets.
The core Makefile variable SCTP must be set to 1 (which is by default
set to 1 in Makefile.defs) and sources compiled with -DUSE_SCTP
(automatically set when SCTP=1). In other words, if core Makefiles are
not changed and SCTP variable is not overwritten from command line,
then the SCTP support in core is enabled.

3.1. sctp_socket_rcvbuf (int)
Size for the sctp socket receive buffer.
Default value is automatically set based on OS limits.
Example 1.1. Set sctp_socket_rcvbuf parameter
...
modparam("sctp", "sctp_socket_rcvbuf", 14096)
...
3.2. sctp_socket_sndbuf (int)
Size for the sctp socket send buffer.
Default value is automatically set based on OS limits.
Example 1.2. Set sctp_socket_sndbuf parameter
...
modparam("sctp", "sctp_socket_sndbuf", 14096)
...
3.3. sctp_autoclose (int)
Number of seconds before autoclosing an idle association. Can be
changed at runtime, but it will affect only new associations.
Default value is 180 (seconds).
Example 1.3. Set sctp_autoclose parameter
...
# kamcmd cfg.set_now_int sctp autoclose 120
...
modparam("sctp", "sctp_autoclose", 300)
...
3.4. sctp_send_ttl (int)
Number of milliseconds before an unsent message/chunk is dropped. Can
be changed at runtime.
Default value is 32000 (miliseconds - 32 seconds).
Example 1.4. Set sctp_send_ttl parameter
...
# kamcmd cfg.set_now_int sctp send_ttl 180000
...
modparam("sctp", "sctp_send_ttl", 10000)
...
3.5. sctp_send_retries (int)
How many times to attempt re-sending a message on a re-opened
association, if the sctp stack did give up sending it (it's not related
to sctp protocol level retransmission). Useful to improve reliability
with peers that reboot/restart or fail over to another machine.
WARNING: use with care and low values (e.g. 1-3) to avoid "multiplying"
traffic to unresponding hosts.
Can be changed at runtime.
Default value is 0.
Example 1.5. Set sctp_send_retries parameter
...
modparam("sctp", "sctp_send_retries", 1)
...
3.6. sctp_assoc_tracking (int)
Controls whether or not sctp associations are tracked inside Kamailio.
Turning it off would result in less memory being used and slightly
better performance, but it will also disable some other features that
depend on it (e.g. sctp_assoc_reuse).
Can be changed at runtime (kamcmd sctp assoc_tracking 0), but changes
will be allowed only if all the other features that depend on it are
turned off (for example it can be turned off only if first
sctp_assoc_reuse was turned off).
Note: turning sctp_assoc_tracking on/off will delete all the tracking
information for all the currently tracked associations and might
introduce a small temporary delay in the sctp processing if lots of
associations were tracked.
Config options depending on sctp_assoc_tracking being on:
sctp_assoc_reuse.
Default value is 1 (enabled, 0 - disabled).
Example 1.6. Set sctp_assoc_tracking parameter
...
modparam("sctp", "sctp_assoc_tracking", 0)
...
3.7. sctp_assoc_reuse (int)
Controls sctp association reuse. For now only association reuse for
replies is affected by it. Default is on. Depends on
sctp_assoc_tracking being on.
Note that even if turned off, if the port in via corresponds to the
source port of the association the request was sent on or if rport is
turned on (force_rport() or via containing a rport option), the
association will be automatically reused by the sctp stack. Can be
changed at runtime (sctp assoc_reuse), but it can be turned on only if
sctp_assoc_tracking is on.
Default value is 1 (enabled, 0 - disabled).
Example 1.7. Set sctp_assoc_reuse parameter
...
modparam("sctp", "sctp_assoc_reuse", 0)
...
3.8. sctp_max_assocs (int)
Maximum number of allowed open sctp associations. -1 means maximum
allowed by the OS. Default: -1. Can be changed at runtime (e.g.: kamcmd
cfg.set_now_int sctp max_assocs 10 ). When the maximum associations
number is exceeded and a new associations is opened by a remote host,
the association will be immediately closed. However it is possible that
some sip packets get through (especially if they are sent early, as
part of the 4-way handshake).
When Kamailio tries to open a new association and the max_assocs is
exceeded the exact behaviour depends on whether or not
sctp_assoc_tracking is on. If on, the send triggering the active open
will gracefully fail, before actually opening the new association and
no packet will be sent. However if sctp_assoc_tracking is off, the
association will first be opened and then immediately closed. In
general this means that the initial sip packet will be sent (as part of
the 4-way handshake).
Default value is -1.
Example 1.8. Set sctp_max_assocs parameter
...
modparam("sctp", "sctp_max_assocs", 10)
...
3.9. sctp_srto_initial (int)
Initial value of the retransmission timeout (in miliseconds), used in
RTO calculations.
Can be changed at runtime (sctp srto_initial) but it will affect only
new associations.
Default value is OS specific.
Example 1.9. Set sctp_srto_initial parameter
...
modparam("sctp", "sctp_srto_initial", 1000)
...
3.10. sctp_srto_max (int)
Maximum value of the retransmission timeout (RTO) in milliseconds.
WARNING: values lower then the sctp sack_delay will cause lots of
retransmissions and connection instability (see sctp_srto_min for more
details).
Can be changed at runtime (sctp srto_max) but it will affect only new
associations.
Default value is OS specific.
Example 1.10. Set sctp_srto_max parameter
...
modparam("sctp", "sctp_srto_max", 2000)
...
3.11. sctp_srto_min (int)
Minimum value of the retransmission timeout (RTO) in milliseconds.
WARNING: values lower then the sctp sack_delay of any peer might cause
retransmissions and possible interoperability problems. According to
the standard the sack_delay should be between 200 and 500 ms, so avoid
trying values lower then 500 ms unless you control all the possible
sctp peers and you do make sure their sack_delay is higher or their
sack_freq is 1.
Can be changed at runtime (sctp srto_min) but it will affect only new
associations.
Default value is OS specific.
Example 1.11. Set sctp_srto_min parameter
...
modparam("sctp", "sctp_srto_min", 800)
...
3.12. sctp_asocmaxrxt (int)
Maximum retransmissions attempts per association. It should be set to
sctp_pathmaxrxt * no. of expected paths.
Can be changed at runtime (sctp asocmaxrxt) but it will affect only new
associations.
Default value is OS specific.
Example 1.12. Set sctp_asocmaxrxt parameter
...
modparam("sctp", "sctp_asocmaxrxt", 5)
...
3.13. sctp_init_max_attempts (int)
Maximum INIT retransmission attempts.
Can be changed at runtime (sctp init_max_attempts).
Default value is OS specific.
Example 1.13. Set sctp_init_max_attempts parameter
...
modparam("sctp", "sctp_init_max_attempts", 3)
...
3.14. sctp_init_max_timeo (int)
Maximum INIT retransmission timeout (RTO max for INIT) in miliseconds.
Can be changed at runtime (sctp init_max_timeo).
Default value is OS specific.
Example 1.14. Set sctp_init_max_timeo parameter
...
modparam("sctp", "sctp_init_max_timeo", 1000)
...
3.15. sctp_hbinterval (int)
SCTP heartbeat interval. Setting it to -1 will disable the heartbeats.
Can be changed at runtime (sctp hbinterval) but it will affect only new
associations.
Default value is OS specific.
Example 1.15. Set sctp_hbinterval parameter
...
modparam("sctp", "sctp_hbinterval", 2000)
...
3.16. sctp_pathmaxrxt (int)
Maximum retransmission attempts per path (see also sctp_asocmaxrxt).
Can be changed at runtime (sctp pathmaxrxt) but it will affect only new
associations.
Default value is OS specific.
Example 1.16. Set sctp_pathmaxrxt parameter
...
modparam("sctp", "sctp_pathmaxrxt", 2)
...
3.17. sctp_sack_delay (int)
Delay until an ACK is generated after receiving a packet (in
miliseconds).
WARNING: a value higher then srto_min can cause a lot of
retransmissions (and strange problems). A value higher then srto_max
will result in very high connections instability. According to the
standard the sack_delay value should be between 200 and 500 ms.
Can be changed at runtime (sctp sack_delay) but it will affect only new
associations.
Default value is OS specific.
Example 1.17. Set sctp_sack_delay parameter
...
modparam("sctp", "sctp_sack_delay", 400)
...
3.18. sctp_sack_freq (int)
Number of packets received before an ACK is sent (without waiting for
the sack_delay to expire). Default: OS specific.
Note: on linux with lksctp up to and including 1.0.9 is not possible to
set this value (having it in the config will produce a warning on
startup).
Can be changed at runtime (sctp sack_freq) but it will affect only new
associations.
Default value is OS specific.
Example 1.18. Set sctp_sack_freq parameter
...
modparam("sctp", "sctp_sack_freq", 3)
...
3.19. sctp_max_burst (int)
