[sctp-dev] SCTP API - PPI

[Christopher Hegarty - Sun Microsystems Ireland]

Hi Tomas,

The Payload Protocol ID has been included in the protocol for future 
flexibility.  It is envisioned that the functions of protocol 
identification and port number multiplexing will not be as closely 
linked in the future as they are currently.

The current draft does not have support for getting/setting the Payload 
Protocol Identifier, PPID. You are correct, if we were to support this 
then it would be through a getter/setter in the MessageInfo class.

Do you have a specific requirement for the PPID?

Regards,
-Chris.
