Abstract :
The stream control transmission protocol (SCTP) is a new protocol applied on the transport layer, which is proposed by the IETF in RFC2960. SCTP has some new features compared with the traditional TCP transport layer protocol. As a promising new protocol, it may be used on traditional IP networks, mobile IP networks, and carry on some traditional application, such as FTP, HTTP, and some undiscovered ones. In order to evaluate its performance, our group has been working on the simulation of SCTP on a simulating software, network simulator (NS)
