RFC3873 defined SCTP_MIB_OUTOFBLUES:
sctpOutOfBlues OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX Counter32
MAX-ACCESS read-only
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"The number of out of the blue packets received by the host.
An out of the blue packet is an SCTP packet correctly formed,
including the proper checksum, but for which the receiver was
unable to identify an appropriate association."
REFERENCE
"Section 8.4 in RFC2960 deals with the Out-Of-The-Blue
(OOTB) packet definition and procedures."
But OOTB packet INIT, INIT-ACK and SHUTDOWN-ACK(COOKIE-WAIT or
COOKIE-ECHOED state) are not counted by SCTP_MIB_OUTOFBLUES.
