📰 News

💡 Description

TSCTP is Michael Tüxen's SCTP test tool. It is released under BSD license. This page contains only the packages of this useful tool, to make it easily accessible. Please refer to the upstream author for questions on this program!

😀 Examples

Notes

For TSCTP to work, the kernel needs to support SCTP, i.e. sockets with protocol IPPROTO_SCTP. In most cases, this means to load the SCTP kernel module.

Linux

echo "sctp" >/etc/modules-load.d/sctp.conf
Then, reboot to load the module. Note: Ensure that the SCTP module is not blacklisted (e.g. /etc/modprobe.d/sctp-blacklist.conf in Fedora Linux)!

FreeBSD

echo 'sctp_load="YES"' >>/boot/loader.conf
Then, reboot to load the module.

Run TSCTP in server mode, listen for incoming connections

tsctp -l :: -l 0.0.0.0 -p 1234
Server mode: bind to all IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, listen on port 1234.

Run TSCTP in client mode, connect to server and send messages

tsctp -l :: -l 0.0.0.0 -p 1234 -n 10 -l 1000 127.0.0.1
Client mode: bind to all IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, connect to localhost (127.0.0.1) on port 1234, send unlimited number of messages of 4096 bytes each, stop after 10 s. 
tsctp -l :: -l 0.0.0.0 -p 1234 -n 0 -T 10 -l 4096 127.0.0.1
Client mode: bind to all IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, connect to localhost (127.0.0.1) on port 1234, send unlimited number of messages of 4096 bytes each, stop after 10 s.
