Description:
 def start_sctp_client(self, ip=None, port=None, name=None, timeout=None, protocol=None, family='ipv4'):
 """Starts a new SCTP client. Client can be optionally given `ip` and `port` to bind to, as well as `name`, default `timeout` and a `protocol`. `family` can be either ipv4 (default) or ipv6. You should use `Connect` keyword to connect client to a host. Examples: | Start TCP client | | Start TCP client | name=Client1 | protocol=GTPV2 | | Start TCP client | 10.10.10.2 | 53 | name=Server1 | protocol=GTPV2 | | Start TCP client | timeout=5 | """
