9.4 sctp_connectx Function

#include <netinet/sctp.h>

int sctp_connectx(int

sockfd , const struct sockaddr *

addrs , int

addrcnt );

Returns: 0 for success, 1 on error

The sctp_connectx function is used to connect to a multihomed peer. We specify

addrcnt addresses, all belonging to the same peer, in the

addrs parameter. The

addrs parameter is a packed list of addresses, as in Figure 9.4. The SCTP stack uses one or more of the given addresses for establishing the association. All the addresses listed in

addrs are considered to be valid, confirmed addresses.
