Although this appears to be a simple question, it gets complicated because
SCPS has numerous options and the answer depends on the network you are
running over and the options selected and if you are running end-to-end or
using SCPS as a gateway.
I have not tested an in-kernel implementation of SCPS such as SkipWare nor
do I know if SkipWare implements ALL of the SCPS specification. Eric Travis
could answer that.
We are presenting a paper at SpaceOps 2002 on our SCPS and TCP
evaluations. In addition, the really big report is nearly ready for
distribution. I'll post that report shortly - hopefully by the end of next
week. The spaceops paper is available at:
