| The **Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP)** is a computer networking communications [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:p:protocol|protocol]] in the [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:t:transportlayer|Transport Layer]] of the [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:i:ip|Internet Protocol]] Suite. Originally intended for Signaling System 7 (SS7) message transport in telecommunication, the [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:p:protocol|protocol]] provides the message-oriented feature of the [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:u:udp]], while ensuring reliable, in-sequence transport of messages with congestion control like the [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:t:tcp]]. Unlike UDP and TCP, the protocol provides multi-homing and redundant paths to increase resilience and reliability. SCTP is standardized by the [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.b_stds:tech:ietf:start]] in [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.b_stds:tech:ietf:4960]]. The SCTP reference implementation was released as part of FreeBSD version 7, and has since been widely ported to other platforms. | The **Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP)** is a computer networking communications [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:p:protocol|protocol]] in the [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:t:transportlayer|Transport Layer]] of the [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:i:ip|Internet Protocol]] Suite.
