The default is 16, and the value is stored as a 16 bit value. BIG-IP_v12.0.0
set_maximum_path_retransmit_limit Sets the maximum path retransmit limit. This the number of retries attempted before failing over a particular path between local and remote endpoints. When a path is not responsive anymore, one of the alternate paths that has established the association as a multi-homing endpoint is chosen to take over the traffic. The default number of retries to declare a path unusable is 5. BIG-IP_v12.0.0
set_order_receive_message_state Sets the state that if true, SCTP will order the received messages before delivering them to upper layer. BIG-IP_v9.2.1
