The Session Description Protocol Label Attribute

Overview

RFC 4574, “The Session Description Protocol Label Attribute”, is a Proposed Standard document published in August 2006 by O. Levin, G. Camarillo. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.

Abstract

This document defines a new Session Description Protocol (SDP) media-level attribute: "label". The "label" attribute carries a pointer to a media stream in the context of an arbitrary network application that uses SDP. The sender of the SDP document can attach the "label" attribute to a particular media stream or streams. The application can then use the provided pointer to refer to each particular media stream in its context. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
