SCTP initialization

Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) initialization is the process of setting up a communication channel between two endpoints in a network. It involves configuring necessary parameters and establishing a stable connection. SCTP initializes by sending signals to confirm that both parties are ready to communicate, allowing data to be transmitted reliably and efficiently. This protocol is particularly useful for applications that require multiple streams of data, ensuring that messages arrive in order and without error, while providing features like congestion control for better performance in diverse network conditions.
