<description>
<p>
This module implements diameter transport over TCP using gen_tcp.
It can be specified as the value of a transport_module option to
<seealso
marker="diameter#add_transport">diameter:add_transport/2</seealso>
and implements the behaviour documented in
<seealso marker="diameter_transport">diameter_transport(3)</seealso>.</p>

The start function required by <seealso
marker="diameter_transport#start">diameter_transport(3)</seealso>.</p>
<p>
The only diameter_tcp-specific argument is the options list.
Options <c>raddr</c> and <c>rport</c> specify the remote address
and port for a connector and not valid for a listener.
Remaining options are any accepted by gen_tcp:connect/3 for
a connector, or gen_tcp:listen/2 for a listener, with the exception
of <c>binary</c>, <c>packet</c> and <c>active</c>.
Also, option <c>port</c> can be specified for a listener to specify the
local listening port, the default being the standardized 3868 if
unspecified.
Note that option <c>ip</c> specifies the local address.</p>
<p>
If the service specifies more than one Host-IP-Address and
option <c>ip</c> is unspecified then then the
first of the service's addresses is used as the local address.</p>
<p>
The returned local address list has length one.</p>
