Dear Gorry, I have read the document, I have also implemented UDP Encapsulation of SCTP Packets into the sctplib userland SCTP implementation and, of course, I support the document.On 28.03.2012 15:25, Gorry Fairhurst wrote: > This email announces the start of a working group last call for > draft-ietf-tsvwg-sctp-udp-encaps, "UDP Encapsulation of SCTP Packets". > > Following the meeting this week, this document is now thought to be > ready to proceed to be published as a BCP.

Dear Gorry, I like the idea and am firmly convinced that this reflects an important use case - (Allow SCTP traffic to pass legacy NATs). I support the document and see no problems with the described approach. Martin -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Im Auftrag von Gorry Fairhurst Gesendet: Mittwoch, 28.

Hi,
I also read the document and use the approach to handle SCTP packets in the userland implementation when no root privileges are granted.
I think it is very important to get it published as an BCP.

I also think that it would be useful to publish this document as a BCP. Greets Hakim Adhari -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Im Auftrag von Gorry Fairhurst Gesendet: Mittwoch, 28.

Hi,
I have read the document and support its publication. The UDP encapsulation is very helpful to deploy SCTP despite legacy networks and operating systems without a kernel implementation.
Best regards

James and Gorry,
I support this.
I have read and followed development of this draft for
encapsulating SCTP over UDP. I recognize the need in
this area, and approve of its content as useful, correct
and complete.

I just had a look at the draft again, and I'm wondering how the Path MTU Discovery (section 4.6) is handled when the Don't Fragment bit cannot be set. If a userland implementation is used, this is the case on Mac OS X, for example.
Best regards

AFAIK, on MAC OS X you could do a work around by set the DF bit on a raw socket, but I do not think that this will work for a SCTP userland implementation.

Some OSes support the controlling of the DF bit for a normal user, some don't. I'll update the text accordingly. I guess if you can't control the DF bit, you can't do PMTU discovery. So you need to choose a small MTU value... Or use IPv6, which doesn't have this problem.
