Hi ,
For the sctp testing , i did install the alpha version around one year ago , ( so i have this version MMS NowSMS NextGen Version 2025.08.04)
as we build a second MMSC , i did also download the alpha , this summer but the version is NowSMS NextGen Version 2026.07.10.

can you tell me what is the difference between this two versions , which one do i have to keep ?do i have to download the official ( not the alpha ) version ? and on the official does it support sctp ?

Thanks for your feedback ,

Hi Marc,

The changes information can be found here: https://nowsms.com/download/linux/changes.txt

Regarding Diameter and SCTP, there is little mentioned other than to refer to our discussion thread at
https://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/113328/114309.html

I can confirm that no SCTP features have been removed in more recent versions.

Reading through that thread, the only SCTP difference is that the newer version adds the SCTP_SEQPACKET=Yes setting, which if enabled, changes the SCTP connection to use socket type SOCK_SEQPACKET instead of SOCK_STREAM.

Regards,

Bryce
