[ddp] sctplib-stable1 : stable userland implementation of the SCTP protocol RFC 2960

[daily-debian-package at enix.org]

Hello,

Today, I'm happy to present you the Debian package sctplib-stable1,
which is part of the libs section, and maintained by Anibal Monsalve
Salazar <A.Monsalve.Salazar at IEEE.org>. 

This package contains : stable userland implementation of the SCTP
protocol RFC 2960.

This is the stable userland implementation of the SCTP protocol (RFC
2960). It is based on the author's sctplib 1.0.x, the stable sctplib.

The sctplib library is a fairly complete prototype implementation of the
Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP), a message-oriented reliable
transport protocol that supports multi-homing, and multiple message streams
multiplexed within an SCTP connection (also named association). SCTP is
described in RFC 2960, RFC 3309 and RFC 3286. This implementation is the
product of a cooperation between Siemens AG (ICN), Munich, Germany and the
Computer Networking Technology Group at the IEM of the University of Essen,
Germany. See http://www.sctp.de/ for details.

The API of the library was modeled after section 10 of RFC 2960, and most
parameters and functions should be self-explanatory to the user familiar with
this document. In addition to these interface functions between an Upper
Layer Protocol (ULP) and an SCTP instance, the library also provides a number
of helper functions that can be used to manage callback function routines to
make them execute at a certain point of time (i.e. timer-based) or open and
bind  UDP sockets on a configurable port, which may then be used for an
asynchronous interprocess communication.
