Opened: Apr 21, 2016
Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

The system may advertise, on the client-side, SCTP alternate addresses that are in a route-domain different from that of the virtual server.

Impact

No impact to traffic processing. Some addresses advertised may fail to respond to negotiation, but the SCTP association overall will be stable.

Conditions

Configuring an SCTP virtual server with alternate-addresses that are not in the correct route domain.

Workaround

Ensure that all addresses for SCTP virtual servers are in the same route domain.

Fix Information

The SCTP profile now screens alternate addresses for route domain membership before advertising them.
