The maximum number of retransmissions over all paths depend on the number of paths and the maximum number of retransmission over each path. Ideally,
sctp_pa_max_retr
should be set to the sum of _pp_max_retr Parameter over all available paths. For example, if there are 3 paths to the destination and the maximum number of retransmissions over each of the 3 paths is 5, then_pa_max_retr
should be set to less than or equal to 15. (See the Note in Section 8.2, RFC 2960.) - Commitment Level
