Unlike TCP, SCTP also provides message boundary +preservation, ordered and unordered message delivery, multi-streaming +and multi-homing. Detection of data corruption, loss of data and +duplication of data is achieved by using checksums and sequence numbers. +A selective retransmission mechanism is applied to correct loss or +corruption of data. + +usrsctp may be used by psi or psi-plus |
