Hi,

>> *Q4 (CLARIFICATION):*

> The clarification would be fine, but both the original and the clarification are misleading. The fmt value does not identify an application-layer protocol - it identifies a port number. This is explained later in section 4.1.

Correct. The SDP sctpmap attribute then associates that port number with an SCTP application.
