Synopsis

SCTP is rapidly being accepted as the ideal solution for carrying voice across the Internet -- and a powerful improvement on TCP for a wide range of general purpose applications. In this authoritative reference and implementer's guide, the protocol's creators take you inside SCTP, present its goals and key aspects of its design, and introduce today's best techniques for leveraging it in diverse IP-based applications. Randall Stewart and Qiaobing Yie demonstrate how SCTP enhances TCP, how it addresses serious security and reliability weaknesses in the existing Internet transport architecture, and how it has evolved through the IETF standards process. Next, they show how to take full advantage of SCTP's power to make IP-based communications more reliable and robust -- and to meet the challenges of tomorrow's most business-critical Internet applications.
