Guidelines for Extending the RTP Control Protocol
نویسندگان
چکیده
The RTP Control Protocol (RTCP) is used along with the Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) to provide a control channel between media senders and receivers. This allows constructing a feedback loop to enable application adaptation and monitoring, among other uses. The basic reporting mechanisms offered by RTCP are generic, yet quite powerful and suffice to cover a range of uses. This document provides guidelines on extending RTCP if those basic mechanisms prove insufficient.

متن کاملRFC 6222 Choosing an RTCP CNAME
The RTP Control Protocol (RTCP) Canonical Name (CNAME) is a persistent transport-level identifier for an RTP endpoint. While the Synchronization Source (SSRC) identifier of an RTP endpoint may change if a collision is detected or when the RTP application is restarted, its RTCP CNAME is meant to stay unchanged, so that RTP endpoints can be uniquely identified and associated with their RTP media ...

متن کاملRFC 6904 Encrypted SRTP Header Extensions
The Secure Real-time Transport Protocol (SRTP) provides authentication, but not encryption, of the headers of Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) packets. However, RTP header extensions may carry sensitive information for which participants in multimedia sessions want confidentiality. This document provides a mechanism, extending the mechanisms of SRTP, to selectively encrypt RTP header extensio...
متن کاملExtending the functionality of RTP/RTCP implementation in network simulator (NS-2) to support TCP friendly congestion control
In this paper, we present a modification of the ns2 code for the RTP/RTCP protocols. The legacy RTP/RTCP code in ns2 has not yet been validated but it provides a framework of the protocol’s specification for experimental use. We have modified the code by adding all the RTP/RTCP protocol’s attributes that are defined in RFC 3550 and related to QoS metrics. We have also implemented additional alg...
