Hi folks, RFC 4960's section 5.2.4 talks about association restart (action (A)). My reading is that restart can happen in any state other than CLOSED. But if the association is in the SHUTDOWN_PENDING or SHUTDOWN_SENT state then I'm not sure it makes sense to allow the association to restart: from the API perspective the application has called shutdown() and/or close() (possibly with SO_LINGER set) so it's unlikely to be able to handle a restarted association. I saw a patch to one SCTP implementation on the web because it needed to add logic to shut down the association when this happens (actually the patch I saw only handled the SHUTDOWN_PENDING state). Should the RFC explicitly cover this scenario? Regards, -Jeff
