Abstract:

   The Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) uses a 32-bit
   checksum in the common header of each packet to provide some level of
   data integrity.  If another method used by SCTP provides already the
   same or a higher level of data integrity, computing this checksum
   does not provide any additional protection, but does consume
   computing resources.

   This document provides a simple extension to SCTP allowing to save
   these computing resources by using zero as the checksum in a
   backwards compatible way.  It also defines how this feature can be
   used when SCTP packets are encapsulated in Datagram Transport Layer
   Security (DTLS) packets.
