Google knows the answer to everything. But to give some quick answers anyway: > 1. Is SCTP TCP compatible? When a server provides SCTP protocol on > port 5222 for example normal TCP clients can still connect? No, it isn't. SCTP _can_ be set up on top of UDP, but it is not "compatible" with TCP. And the "port" that you talk about is a TCP port. Read: Not SCTP related anyway. > 2. Could both protocols run on one port? See above. TCP (or UDP) ports are unrelated. They are a simple way to name TCP and UDP endpoints. Irrelevant.
