Yes.
The question is who issues it?
It can be done by the CM and not ULP.
Looking way back at VIPL there was a peer-to-peer model with the API
similar to the
one which Shane outlines.
Thanks,

                SO in a nutshell the proposal is to add some identifier
into "CM private data" which indicate that it is peer-to-peer model, and
unique peers IDs for the requested connection.
                Is this the model?
                


        For the time being, I try to understand if in the peer to peer
model both sides issue a listen before connecting or not. Without this
listen the peer-to-peer does not seems usable to me, what's your
understanding of the spec?
        
        Or.
