Starting NTLP Work Melinda Shore & Henning Schulzrinne to co-author; Bob Braden & Michael Thomas to act as expert reviewers. Starting point RSVP (2205 + 2961) Separate service specific stuff out Separate flow spec & session id Keep semantics of PATH (discovery & transport combined) Soft state Support of RSVP-proxies Open issues (testing consensus) Logically separate discovery & transport, in practice they could be piggybacked. Message fragmentation concerns Reliability concerns Optionally supporting other transport protocols Reduction of multicast complexity 2752 / policy issues Routing interaction (handling mid-session path splitting) Support for explicitly stating message directionality & hop-by-hop vs. end-to-end. |
