RFC 6128 RTCP Port for Multicast Sessions
نویسنده
چکیده
The Session Description Protocol (SDP) has an attribute that allows RTP applications to specify an address and a port associated with the RTP Control Protocol (RTCP) traffic. In RTP-based source-specific multicast (SSM) sessions, the same attribute is used to designate the address and the RTCP port of the Feedback Target in the SDP description. However, the RTCP port associated with the SSM session itself cannot be specified by the same attribute to avoid ambiguity, and thus, is required to be derived from the "m=" line of the media description. Deriving the RTCP port from the "m=" line imposes an unnecessary restriction. This document removes this restriction by introducing a new SDP attribute.

متن کاملRTP Control Protocol (RTCP) Extensions for Single-Source Multicast Sessions with Unicast Feedback
This document specifies an extension to the Real-time Transport Control Protocol (RTCP) to use unicast feedback to a multicast sender. The proposed extension is useful for single-source multicast sessions such as Source-Specific Multicast (SSM) communication where the traditional model of many-to-many group communication is either not available or not desired. In addition, it can be applied to ...
متن کاملMultiplexing RTP Data and Control Packets on a Single Port
This memo discusses issues that arise when multiplexing RTP data packets and RTP Control Protocol (RTCP) packets on a single UDP port. It updates RFC 3550 and RFC 3551 to describe when such multiplexing is and is not appropriate, and it explains how the Session Description Protocol (SDP) can be used to signal multiplexed sessions.
متن کاملTransmitting Hierarchical Aggregation Information Using RTCP Protocol
The current state of the RFC 3550 RTP/RTCP standard is not optimal for large-scale streaming sessions employing sourcespecific multicast and is currently the subject of research in many research laboratories. The most promising optimization for the RTP/RTCP protocol seems to be hierarchical aggregation [2], [3], [5], [6], [10], [11]. However, hierarchical aggregation has not yet completely solv...
متن کاملConsiderations for Deploying the Rapid Acquisition of Multicast RTP Sessions (RAMS) Method
The Rapid Acquisition of Multicast RTP Sessions (RAMS) solution is a method based on RTP and the RTP Control Protocol (RTCP) that enables an RTP receiver to rapidly acquire and start consuming the RTP multicast data. Upon a request from the RTP receiver, an auxiliary unicast RTP retransmission session is set up between a retransmission server and the RTP receiver, over which the reference infor...
