Yes, exactly: if you want to remove the phone, this also removes the call. In TCP/IP, this isn't the case. Your TCP connections will survive route changes, interface removals, etc.
But not a change in IP address :-) TCP connections are exactly like VCC's in this regard, the VCC here is defined as saddr/sport/daddr/dport, and if any of these must change due to an administrative act, it kills the "phone call" :-) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
