Sockets Library Functions                  sctpoptinfo(3SOCKET)



NAME
     sctpoptinfo - examine SCTP level options for an SCTP  end-
     point

SYNOPSIS
     cc [ flag... ] file... -lsocket  -lnsl   -lsctp  [ library... ]
     #include 
     #include 
     #include 

     int sctpoptinfo(int sock, sctpassoct id, int opt, void *arg,
          socklent *len);


DESCRIPTION
     The sctpoptinfo() returns SCTP  level  options  associated
     with  the  SCTP  socket sock. If sock is a one-to-many style
     socket, id refers to the association of interest. If sock is
     a one-to-one socket or if sock is a branched-off one-to-many
     style socket, id is ignored. The opt parameter specifies the
     SCTP  option to get. The arg structure is an option-specific
     structure buffer allocated by the caller. The len  parameter
     is the length of the option specified.


     Following are the currently supported  values  for  the  opt
     parameter.  When one of the options below specifies an asso-
     ciation id, the id is relevant for  only  one-to-many  style
     SCTP  sockets.  The associatation id can be ignored for one-
     to-one style or branched-off one-to-many style SCTP sockets.

     SCTPRTOINFO               Returns the  protocol  parameters
                                used   to   initialize  and  bind
                                retransmission timeout (RTO) tun-
                                able.  The following structure is
                                used to access these parameters:

                                  struct sctprtoinfo {
                                         sctpassoct            srtoassocid;
                                         uint32t                srtoinitial;
                                         uint32t                srtomax;
                                         uint32t                srtomin;
                                  };
                                  where:
                                         srtoassocid           Association ID specified by the caller
                                         srtoinitial            Initial RTO value
                                         srtomax                Maximum value for the RTO
                                         srtomin                Minimum value for the RTO

     EINVAL          The input buffer length is insufficient  for
                     the option specified.


     EINVAL          The peer address  is  invalid  or  does  not
                     belong to the association.
