Why LKSCTP use 120.1.1.1 as source instead of 110.1.1.1? For simple ICMP ping test, it is normal, but not for SCTP. eth1 11:30:02.824548 IP 12.1.1.1 > 110.1.1.1: ICMP echo request, id 37178, seq 12, length 64 11:30:02.824559 IP 110.1.1.1 > 12.1.1.1: ICMP echo reply, id 37178, seq 12, length 64 11:30:03.825551 IP 12.1.1.1 > 110.1.1.1: ICMP echo request, id 37178, seq 13, length 64 11:30:03.825561 IP 110.1.1.1 > 12.1.1.1: ICMP echo reply, id 37178, seq 13, length 64 eth2 11:30:34.027687 IP 11.1.1.1 > 120.1.1.1: ICMP echo request, id 46138, seq 2, length 64 11:30:34.027697 IP 120.1.1.1 > 11.1.1.1: ICMP echo reply, id 46138, seq 2, length 64 11:30:35.027686 IP 11.1.1.1 > 120.1.1.1: ICMP echo request, id 46138, seq 3, length 64 11:30:35.027694 IP 120.1.1.1 > 11.1.1.1: ICMP echo reply, id 46138, seq 3, length 64 Below is the route information #route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 110.1.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1 120.1.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth2 # ip route show 110.1.1.0/24 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 110.1.1.1 120.1.1.0/24 dev eth2 proto kernel scope link src 120.1.1.1 Since we are using iproute2, so we will have dedicate routing table per interface # ip route show table SCTP1 default via 110.1.1.254 dev eth1 # ip route show table SCTP2 default via 120.1.1.254 dev eth2 # ip rule ls 0: from all lookup local 101: from 110.1.1.1 lookup SCTP1 102: from 120.1.1.1 lookup SCTP2 32766: from all lookup main 32767: from all lookup default How LKSCTP select source address to reply?
