"A SIP Usage for RELOAD", Cullen Jennings, Bruce Lowekamp, Eric Rescorla, Salman Baset, Henning Schulzrinne, 7-Mar-09. ( bytes)

This document defines a SIP Usage for REsource LOcation And Discovery (RELOAD), The SIP Usage provides the functionality of a SIP proxy or registrar in a fully-distributed system. The SIP Usage provides lookup service for AoRs stored in the overlay. The SIP Usage also defines GRUUs that allow the registrations to map an AoR to a specific node reachable through the overlay. The AppAttach method is used to establish a direct connection between nodes through which SIP messages are exchanged.

"REsource LOcation And Discovery (RELOAD) Base Protocol", Cullen Jennings, Bruce Lowekamp, Eric Rescorla, Salman Baset, Henning Schulzrinne, 13-Jul-09. ( bytes)

In this document the term BCP 78 and BCP 79 refer to RFC 3978 and RFC 3979 respectively. They refer only to those RFCs and not any documents that update or supersede them. This document defines REsource LOcation And Discovery (RELOAD), a peer-to-peer (P2P) signaling protocol for use on the Internet. A P2P signaling protocol provides its clients with an abstract storage and messaging service between a set of cooperating peers that form the overlay network. RELOAD is designed to support a P2P Session Initiation Protocol (P2PSIP) network, but can be utilized by other applications with similar requirements by defining new usages that specify the kinds of data that must be stored for a particular application. RELOAD defines a security model based on a certificate enrollment service that provides unique identities. NAT traversal is a fundamental service of the protocol. RELOAD also allows access from "client" nodes that do not need to route traffic or store data for others.

"P2PSIP Overlay Diagnostics", Song Yongchao, XingFeng Jiang, Roni Even, David Bryan, 30-Jun-09. ( bytes)

This document describes mechanisms for P2PSIP diagnostics. It describes the usage scenarios and defines several simple methods for performing diagnostics in P2PSIP overlay networks. It also describes the diagnostic information which is useful for the connection and node status monitoring. The methods and message formats are specified as extensions to P2PSIP base protocol RELOAD.
