RTP Control Protocol Extensions for Single-Source Multicast Sessions with Unicast Feedback
RFC 5760, “RTP Control Protocol Extensions for Single-Source Multicast Sessions with Unicast Feedback”, is a Proposed Standard document published in February 2010 by J. Ott, J. Chesterfield, E. Schooler. It has since been updated by RFC 6128. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document specifies an extension to the Real-time Transport Control Protocol (RTCP) to use unicast feedback to a multicast sender. The proposed extension is useful for single-source multicast sessions such as Source-Specific Multicast (SSM) communication where the traditional model of many-to-many group communication is either not available or not desired. In addition, it can be applied to any group that might benefit from a sender-controlled summarized reporting mechanism. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
