7 A Framework for SDP Attributes when Multiplexing
8 draft-nandakumar-mmusic-sdp-mux-attributes-05
10 Abstract
12 The Session Description Protocol (SDP) provides mechanisms to
13 describe attributes of multimedia sessions and of individual media
14 streams (e.g., Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) sessions) within a
15 multimedia session. In the RTCWeb WG, there is a need to use a
16 single 5-tuple for sending and receiving media associated with
17 multiple media descriptions ("m=" lines). Such a requirement has
18 raised concerns over the semantic implications of the SDP attributes
19 associated with the RTP Sessions multiplexed over a single transport
20 layer flow.
22 The scope of this specification is to provide a framework for
23 analyzing the multiplexing characteristics of SDP attributes. The
24 specification also categorizes existing attributes based on the
25 framework described herein.

150 1. Introduction
152 Real-Time Communication Web (RTCWeb) framework requires Real-time
153 Transport Protocol as the media transport protocol and Session
154 Description Protocol (SDP) [RFC4566] for describing and negotiating
155 multi-media communication sessions.
157 SDP defines several attributes for capturing characteristics that
158 apply to the individual media descriptions (described by "m=" lines")
159 and the overall multimedia session. Typically different media types
160 (audio, video etc) described using different media descriptions
161 represent separate RTP Sessions that are carried over individual
162 transport layer flows. However, in the RTCWeb WG, a requirement has
163 arisen to multiplex several RTP Sessions over a single transport
164 layer flow. This in turn has made necessary to understand the
165 interpretation and usage of the SDP attributes defined for the
166 multiplexed media descriptions.
168 Given the number of SDP attributes registered with the IANA [IANA]
169 and possibility of new attributes being defined in the future, there
170 is need for generic future-proof framework to analyze these
171 attributes for their applicability in the transport multiplexing use-
172 cases.
174 The document starts with providing the motivation for requiring such
175 a framework. This is followed by introduction to the SDP attribute
176 analysis framework/procedures, following which several sections
177 applies the framework to the SDP attributes registered with the IANA
178 [IANA]
180 2. Terminology
182 The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT",
183 "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be
184 interpreted as described in [RFC2119].
186 3. Motivation
188 The time and complications of setting up ICE [RFC5245] and DTLS-SRTP
189 [RFC5763] transports for use by RTP, and conservation of ports, forms
190 an requirement to try and reduce the number of transport level flows
191 needed. This has resulted in the definition of ways, such as,
192 [I-D.ietf-mmusic-sdp-bundle-negotiation] and
193 [I-D.ietf-avt-multiplexing-rtp] to multiplex RTP over a single
194 transport flow in order to preserve network resources such as port
195 numbers. This imposes further restrictions on applicability of these
196 SDP attributes as they are defined today.
198 The specific problem is that there are attribute combinations which
199 make sense when specified on independent m-lines -- as with classical
200 SDP -- that do not make sense when those m-lines are then multiplexed
201 over the same transport. To give an obvious example, ICE permits
202 each m-mline to have an independently specified ice-ufrag attribute.
203 However, if the media from multiple m-lines is multiplexed over the
204 same ICE component, then the meaning of media-level ice-ufrag
205 attributes becomes muddled.
207 As of today there are close to 250 SDP attributes registered with the
208 IANA [IANA] and more will be added in the future. There is no
209 clearly defined procedure to establish the validity/applicability of
210 these attribute when used with transport multiplexing.
212 4. SDP Attribute Analysis Framework
214 Attributes in an SDP session description can be defined at the
215 session-level and media-level. These attributes could be
216 semantically grouped as noted below.
218 o Attributes related to media content such as media type, encoding
219 schemes, payload types.
220 o Attributes specifying media transport characteristics like RTP/
221 RTCP port numbers, network addresses, QOS.
222 o Metadata description attributes capturing session timing and
223 origin information.
224 o Attributes establishing relationships between media streams such
225 as grouping framework
227 With the above semantic grouping as the reference, the proposed
228 framework classifies each attribute into one of the following
229 categories:
230 NORMAL Attributes that can be independently specified when
231 multiplexing and retain their original semantics.
233 In the example given below, the direction and label attributes are
234 independently specified for audio and video m=lines. These
235 attributes are not impacted by multiplexing these media streams
236 over a single transport layer flow.

248 a=recvonly
249 a=label:2
250 a=rtpmap:31 H261/90000
252 NOT RECOMMENDED Attributes where multiplexing is not recommended if
253 these attributes are in use in the SDP since doing so MAY result
254 in incorrect behaviors
256 Example: Multiplexing media descriptions having attribute zrtp-
257 hash defined with the media descriptions lacking it, would either
258 complicate the handling of multiplexed stream or fail
259 multiplexing.

271
272 m=video 34567 RTP/AVP 31 //without zrtp
273 a=rtpmap:31 H261/90000
275 IDENTICAL Attributes that MUST be identical across all the media
276 descriptions being multiplexed.
278 Attributes such as rtcp-mux fall into this category. Since RTCP
279 reporting is done per RTP Session, there is no way to receive RTCP
280 control data for the video m=line in the example below. Hence
281 rtcp-mux MUST be repeated for the video m=line as well, when
282 multiplexed.

293 a=rtcp-mux
295 SUM Attributes can be set as they are normally used but software
296 using them in a multiplex case, MUST apply the sum of all the
297 attributes being multiplexed instead of trying to use each one.
298 This is typically used for bandwidth or other rate limiting
299 attributes to the underlining transport.
301 The software parsing the SDP sample below, should use the
302 aggregate Application Specific (AS) bandwidth value from the
303 individual media descriptions to determine the AS value for the
304 multiplexed session. Thus the calculated AS value would be 256+64
305 bytes for the given example.

316 TRANSPORT Attributes that can be set normally for multiple items in
317 a multiplexed group but the software MUST pick just one of the
318 attribute of the given type for use. The one chosen is the
319 attribute associated with the "m=" line that represents the
320 information being used for the transport of the RTP.
322 In the example below, "a=crypto" attribute is defined for both the
323 audio and the video m=lines. The video media line's a=crypto
324 attribute is chosen since its mid value (bar) appears first in the
325 a=group:BUNDLE line. This is due to BUNDLE grouping semantic
326 [I-D.ietf-mmusic-sdp-bundle-negotiation] which mandates the values
327 from m=line corresponding to the mid appearing first on the
328 a=group:BUNDLE line to be considered for setting up the RTP
329 Transport.

348 SPECIAL Attributes where the text in the source draft must be
349 consulted for further handling when multiplexed.
351 As an example, for the attribute extmap, the specification
352 defining the extension MUST be referred to understand the
353 multiplexing implications.
355 TBD This category defines attributes that need more information to
356 assign an appropriate category.
358 The idea behind these categories is to provide recommendations for
359 using the attributes under RTP session multiplexing scenarios.
361 Section 5 analyzes attributes listed in IANA [IANA] grouped under the
362 IETF document that defines them. The "Level" column indicates
363 whether the attribute is currently specified as:
365 o S -- Session level
366 o M -- Media level
367 o B -- Both
368 o SR -- Source-level (for a single SSRC)

439 OPEN ISSUE:Below SDP examples show 3 scenarios on implications of
440 allowing Payload Types to be repated or not repeated within the
441 BUNDLEd m= lines.
443 Scenario1: Payload Types are not shared and rtcp-fb is mandated for
444 all the multiplexed m=lines. This scenario leads into assigning
445 category "NOT IMPACTED" for rtcp-fb and its paramters since RTCP
446 reporting happens per PayloadType with in a BUNDLED RTP Session, thus
447 allowing for unique reporting.

454 a=mid:video
455 a=rtpmap:98 VP8/90000
456 a-rtcp-fb:98 nack rpsi
458 Scenario2: Payload Types are shared and rtcp-fb is repeated across
459 all the multiplexed m= lines with same feedback type (nack). This
460 leads to assigning category "IDENTICAL" to rtcp-fb which allows NACK
461 and NACK RPSI reporting to be done for PT 98 in this example.
463 a=group:BUNDLE audio video
464 m=audio 3456 RTP/AVP 98

469 a=mid:video
470 a=rtpmap:98 VP8/90000
471 a-rtcp-fb:98 nack rpsi
473 In the below case, audio media line has rtcp-fb ack and video video
474 media line has rtcp-fb nack with Payload types shared. With such a
475 configuration, positive acks are reported for video stream even it
476 was not intended and negative acks are reported for audio stream
477 unintended.
479 // PTs are shared and have different feedback types
480 a=group:BUNDLE audio video
481 m=audio 3456 RTP/AVP 98
482 a=mid:audio
483 a=rtpmap:98 iLBC/8000
484 a=rtcp-fb ack // Positive ACK

486 a=mid:video
487 a=rtpmap:98 VP8/90000
488 a-rtcp-fb:98 nack rpsi // Nack ACK
490 OPEN ISSUE: Should BUNDLE disallow PT to be repeated ?? What does
491 it mean if PTs are shared in the context of rtcp-fb ??. Magnus
492 pointed out that RTCP FB reporting MUST happen per (PT+Media
493 Source) when BUNDLED. If this is allowed, the category of
494 "IDENTICAL" applies with rtcp-fb for all m= lines and update
495 BUNDLE spec to mandate the behavior. Does this sound fine ?

663 hosts to control media service resources such as speech synthesizers,
664 recognizers, verifiers, and identifiers residing in servers on the
665 network. MRCPv2 is not a "stand-alone" protocol -- it relies on
666 other protocols, such as the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP), to
667 coordinate MRCPv2 clients and servers and manage sessions between
668 them, and the Session Description Protocol (SDP) to describe,
669 discover, and exchange capabilities. It also depends on SIP and SDP
670 to establish the media sessions and associated parameters between the
671 media source or sink and the media server. Once this is done, the
672 MRCPv2 exchange operates over the control session established above,
673 allowing the client to control the media processing resources on the

808 OPEN ISSUE:LNX: There has been concern on how to deal with SSRC
809 values repeated across the multiplexed m= lines. Lennox suggested
810 to possible options to deal with it. The simpler is to say that
811 individual SSRC values in a=ssrc attributes MUST NOT be repeated
812 across bundled m-lines, but other than that the behavior is
813 normal. The more complicated is to say that SSRC attributes MAY
814 be repeated across bundled m-lines, iff the media stream satisfies
815 more than one m-line. In this case, it's up to the individual
816 source attributes to define what's allowed.

1232 multicast (SSM) sessions, the same attribute is used to designate the
1233 address and the RTCP port of the Feedback Target in the SDP
1234 description. However, the RTCP port associated with the SSM session
1235 itself cannot be specified by the same attribute to avoid ambiguity,
1236 and thus, is required to be derived from the "m=" line of the media

1519 RFC3108 Attribute Analysis
1521 RFC3108 describes conventions for using the Session Description
1522 Protocol (SDP) for characterizing ATM bearer connections using an
1523 AAL1, AAL2 or AAL5 adaptation layers. For AAL1, AAL2 and AAL5,
1524 bearer connections can be used to transport single media streams. In
1525 addition, for AAL1 and AAL2, multiple media streams may be
1526 multiplexed into a bearer connection. For all adaptation types
1527 (AAL1, AAL2 and AAL5), bearer connections may be bundled into a
1528 single media group. In all cases addressed by RFC3108, a real-time
1529 media stream (voice, video, voiceband data, pseudo-wire and others)
1530 or a multiplex of media streams is mapped directly into an ATM
1531 connection. RFC3108 does not address cases where ATM serves as a
1532 low-level transport pipe for IP packets which in turn may carry one
1533 or more real-time (e.g. VoIP) media sessions with a life-cycle
1534 different from that of the underlying ATM transport.

1771 modifier that does not include transport overhead; instead an

1790 RFC3890 bwtype Analysis
1792 The intention of TIAS is that the media level bit-rate is multiplied
1793 with the known per-packet overhead for the selected transport and the
1794 maxprate value to determine the worst case bit-rate from the
1795 transport to more accurately capture the required usage. Summing
1796 TIAS values independently across m=lines and multiplying the computed
1797 sum with maxprate and the per-packet overhead would inflate the value
1798 significantly. Instead performing multiplication and adding the
1799 individual values is a more appropriate usage. This still ignores
1800 the fact that this is a send side declaration, and not intended for
1801 receiver negotiation.

1903 In a large RTP session using the RTP Control Protocol (RTCP) feedback
1904 mechanism defined in RFC 4585 [RFC4585], a feedback target may
1905 experience transient overload if some event causes a large number of
1906 receivers to send feedback at once. This overload is usually avoided
1907 by ensuring that feedback reports are forwarded to all receivers,
1908 allowing them to avoid sending duplicate feedback reports. However,
1909 there are cases where it is not recommended to forward feedback
1910 reports, and this may allow feedback implosion. RFC6642 [RFC6642]
1911 memo discusses these cases and defines a new RTCP Third-Party Loss
1912 Report that can be used to inform receivers that the feedback target
1913 is aware of some loss event, allowing them to suppress feedback.
1914 Associated Session Description Protocol (SDP) signaling is also

2117 13.1. RFC5109 - RTP Payload Format for Generic FEC
2119 RFC5109 [RFC5109] describes a payload format for generic Forward
2120 Error Correction (FEC) for media data encapsulated in RTP. It is
2121 based on the exclusive-or (parity) operation. The payload format
2122 allows end systems to apply protection using various protection
2123 lengths and levels, in addition to using various protection group
2124 sizes to adapt to different media and channel characteristics. It
2125 enables complete recovery of the protected packets or partial
2126 recovery of the critical parts of the payload depending on the packet
2127 loss situation.
