Default: 1
+proc/sys/net/sctp/* Variables:
+
+addip_enable - BOOLEAN
+ Enable or disable extension of Dynamic Address Reconfiguration
+ (ADD-IP) functionality specified in RFC5061. This extension provides
+ the ability to dynamically add and remove new addresses for the SCTP
+ associations.
+
+ 1: Enable extension.
+
+ 0: Disable extension.
+
+ Default: 0
+
+addip_noauth_enable - BOOLEAN
+ Dynamic Address Reconfiguration (ADD-IP) requires the use of
+ authentication to protect the operations of adding or removing new
+ addresses. This requirement is mandated so that unauthorized hosts
+ would not be able to hijack associations. However, older
+ implementations may not have implemented this requirement while
+ allowing the ADD-IP extension. For reasons of interoperability,
+ we provide this variable to control the enforcement of the
+ authentication requirement.
+
+ 1: Allow ADD-IP extension to be used without authentication. This
+ should only be set in a closed environment for interoperability
+ with older implementations.
+
+ 0: Enforce the authentication requirement
+
+ Default: 0
+
+auth_enable - BOOLEAN
+ Enable or disable Authenticated Chunks extension. This extension
+ provides the ability to send and receive authenticated chunks and is
+ required for secure operation of Dynamic Address Reconfiguration
+ (ADD-IP) extension.
+
+ 1: Enable this extension.
+ 0: Disable this extension.
+
+ Default: 0
+
+prsctp_enable - BOOLEAN
+ Enable or disable the Partial Reliability extension (RFC3758) which
+ is used to notify peers that a given DATA should no longer be expected.
+
+ 1: Enable extension
+ 0: Disable
+
+ Default: 1
+
+max_burst - INTEGER
+ The limit of the number of new packets that can be initially sent. It
+ controls how bursty the generated traffic can be.
+
+ Default: 4
+
+association_max_retrans - INTEGER
+ Set the maximum number for retransmissions that an association can
+ attempt deciding that the remote end is unreachable. If this value
+ is exceeded, the association is terminated.
+
+ Default: 10
+
+max_init_retransmits - INTEGER
+ The maximum number of retransmissions of INIT and COOKIE-ECHO chunks
+ that an association will attempt before declaring the destination
+ unreachable and terminating.
+
+ Default: 8
+
+path_max_retrans - INTEGER
+ The maximum number of retransmissions that will be attempted on a given
+ path. Once this threshold is exceeded, the path is considered
+ unreachable, and new traffic will use a different path when the
+ association is multihomed.
+
+ Default: 5
+
+rto_initial - INTEGER
+ The initial round trip timeout value in milliseconds that will be used
+ in calculating round trip times. This is the initial time interval
+ for retransmissions.
+
+ Default: 3000
+
+rto_max - INTEGER
+ The maximum value (in milliseconds) of the round trip timeout. This
+ is the largest time interval that can elapse between retransmissions.
+
+ Default: 60000
+
+rto_min - INTEGER
+ The minimum value (in milliseconds) of the round trip timeout. This
+ is the smallest time interval the can elapse between retransmissions.
+
+ Default: 1000
+
+hb_interval - INTEGER
+ The interval (in milliseconds) between HEARTBEAT chunks. These chunks
+ are sent at the specified interval on idle paths to probe the state of
+ a given path between 2 associations.
+
+ Default: 30000
+
+sack_timeout - INTEGER
+ The amount of time (in milliseconds) that the implementation will wait
+ to send a SACK.
+
+ Default: 200
+
+valid_cookie_life - INTEGER
+ The default lifetime of the SCTP cookie (in milliseconds). The cookie
+ is used during association establishment.
+
+ Default: 60000
+
+cookie_preserve_enable - BOOLEAN
+ Enable or disable the ability to extend the lifetime of the SCTP cookie
+ that is used during the establishment phase of SCTP association
+
+ 1: Enable cookie lifetime extension.
+ 0: Disable
+
+ Default: 1
+
+rcvbuf_policy - INTEGER
+ Determines if the receive buffer is attributed to the socket or to
+ association. SCTP supports the capability to create multiple
+ associations on a single socket. When using this capability, it is
+ possible that a single stalled association that's buffering a lot
+ of data may block other associations from delivering their data by
+ consuming all of the receive buffer space. To work around this,
+ the rcvbuf_policy could be set to attribute the receiver buffer space
+ to each association instead of the socket. This prevents the described
+ blocking.
+
+ 1: rcvbuf space is per association
+ 0: recbuf space is per socket
+
+ Default: 0
+
+sndbuf_policy - INTEGER
+ Similar to rcvbuf_policy above, this applies to send buffer space.
+
+ 1: Send buffer is tracked per association
+ 0: Send buffer is tracked per socket.
+
+ Default: 0
+
+sctp_mem - vector of 3 INTEGERs: min, pressure, max
+ Number of pages allowed for queueing by all SCTP sockets.
+
+ min: Below this number of pages SCTP is not bothered about its
+ memory appetite. When amount of memory allocated by SCTP exceeds
+ this number, SCTP starts to moderate memory usage.
+
+ pressure: This value was introduced to follow format of tcp_mem.
+
+ max: Number of pages allowed for queueing by all SCTP sockets.
+
+ Default is calculated at boot time from amount of available memory.
+
+sctp_rmem - vector of 3 INTEGERs: min, default, max
+ See tcp_rmem for a description.
+
+sctp_wmem - vector of 3 INTEGERs: min, default, max
+ See tcp_wmem for a description.
