16 Stream Control Transmission Protocol
17
18 From RFC 2960 <http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2960.txt>.
19
20 "SCTP is a reliable transport protocol operating on top of a
21 connectionless packet network such as IP. It offers the following
22 services to its users:
23
24 -- acknowledged error-free non-duplicated transfer of user data,
25 -- data fragmentation to conform to discovered path MTU size,
26 -- sequenced delivery of user messages within multiple streams,
27 with an option for order-of-arrival delivery of individual user
28 messages,
29 -- optional bundling of multiple user messages into a single SCTP
30 packet, and
31 -- network-level fault tolerance through supporting of multi-
32 homing at either or both ends of an association."
33
34 To compile this protocol support as a module, choose M here: the
35 module will be called sctp.
36
37 If in doubt, say N.

42 help
43 If you say Y, this will enable verbose debugging messages.
44
45 If unsure, say N. However, if you are running into problems, use
46 this option to gather detailed trace information

48 config SCTP_DBG_OBJCNT
49 bool "SCTP: Debug object counts"
50 depends on IP_SCTP
51 help
52 If you say Y, this will enable debugging support for counting the
53 type of objects that are currently allocated. This is useful for
54 identifying memory leaks. If the /proc filesystem is enabled this
55 debug information can be viewed by
56 'cat /proc/net/sctp/sctp_dbg_objcnt'

65 HMAC algorithm to be used during association initialization. It
66 is strongly recommended to use HMAC-SHA1 or HMAC-MD5. See
67 configuration for Cryptographic API and enable those algorithms
68 to make usable by SCTP.

73 Choosing this disables the use of an HMAC during association
74 establishment. It is advised to use either HMAC-MD5 or HMAC-SHA1.
