An eNodeB and MME connects to each other using SCTP. SCTP supports "Heart beat mechanism" and using this each end of SCTP link keeps track of connection status. When a specified number of hear beat messages are unacknowledged, it is assumed peer is unavailable and thereafter defined actions are taken.
