This parameter specifies one host name or address of an SCTP
peer to connect to. When one or more
DiaPeerDef
parameters are configured, this parameter is ignored within
AuthBy DIAMETER
. An address can be an IPv4 or IPv6
address. Multiple
SCTPPeer
parameters are supported.
When
SCTPPeer
is defined, it is used instead of
Host
or
Peer
parameters. Special
formatting characters are supported. If SCTP multihoming is not supported,
connection is attempted to each peer at a time.
When SCTP multihoming
is supported, connection is attempted to all peers at once. In this case,
all addresses defined with
SCTPPeer
must be either
IPv4 or IPv6 addresses.
Here is an example of using
SCTPPeer
:
# Peer has multiple IPv6 addresses
SCTPPeer 2001:db8:1500:1::a100
SCTPPeer 2001:db8:1500:2::a100
