These addresses come from the openais multiring configuration. The jump from 1 to 2 openais rings is going to be challenging enough, IME. As Patrick points out, dlm-kernel supports up to 3. How about this, once someone demonstrates a functional cluster running just two rings and two sctp paths for the dlm, I'll bump up the kernel limit.
