Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) is a transport layer protocol similar to TCP, but is characterized as message-oriented protocol transporting a sequence of messages (each being a group of bytes) rather than an unbroken stream of bytes (TCP behavior). In SCTP, a sender sends a message in one operation, and that exact message is passed to the receiving application process in one operation.

The SCTP as a Transport preference and SCTP retransmission timer are configured from the SIP Trunk Group. The SCTP as a transport protocol and SCTP profile are configured in the SIP signaling port. The SCTP Profile CLI syntax is described below.

Command Example

In this example, the following steps are accomplished:

  • Create SCTP profile named "SCTP02" with following configuration: outboundStreams - 2, inboundStreams - 2, peerTransportAddress - 2, retransmissionsPerPath - 8, hearbeatInterval - 6, orderedDelivery - enabled, retransmissionPerAssociatioon - 1, rtoInitial - 100, rtoMax - 200, rtoMin - 50.
  • Configure SCTP as a transport protocol in SIP signaling port, and SCTP profile "SCTP02" is associated with the particular zone.
  • Configure SCTP as a Transport preference and SCTP retransmission timer to 50 seconds in the SIP Trunk Group.
  • Configure SCTP as a transport protocol in IP Signaling Profile.

Step 1:

Code Block
languagenone
% set profiles signaling sctpProfile SCTP02 outboundStreams 2 inboundStreams 2 peerTransportAddresses 2 retransmissionsPerPath 8 heartbeatInterval 6 orderedDelivery enabled retransmissionsPerAssociation 1 rtoInitial 100 rtoMax 200 rtoMin 50

% show profiles signaling sctpProfile SCTP02 
outboundStreams 2; 
inboundStreams 2; 
peerTransportAddresses 2; 
retransmissionsPerPath 8; 
heartbeatInterval 6; 
orderedDelivery enabled; 
retransmissionsPerAssociation 1; 
rtoInitial 100; 
rtoMin 50; 
rtoMax 200;

 Step 2:

Code Block
languagenone
% set addressContext ADDR_CONTEXT_1 zone ZONE_AS sipSigPort 2 transportProtocolsAllowed sip_sctp 
% set addressContext ADDR_CONTEXT_1 zone ZONE_AS sipSigPort 2 sctpProfileName SCTP02

 Step 3:

Code Block
languagenone
% set addressContext ADDR_CONTEXT_1 zone ZONE_AS sipTrunkGroup TG_SIPART_AS signaling transportPreference preference1 1 
% set addressContext ADDR_CONTEXT_1 zone ZONE_AS sipTrunkGroup TG_SIPART_AS signaling timers sctpRetransmitTimer 10
