FLUTE - File Delivery over Unidirectional Transport
RFC 6726, “FLUTE - File Delivery over Unidirectional Transport”, is a Proposed Standard document published in November 2012 by T. Paila, R. Walsh, M. Luby, V. Roca, R. Lehtonen. It obsoletes RFC 3926. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document defines File Delivery over Unidirectional Transport (FLUTE), a protocol for the unidirectional delivery of files over the Internet, which is particularly suited to multicast networks. The specification builds on Asynchronous Layered Coding, the base protocol designed for massively scalable multicast distribution. This document obsoletes RFC 3926. [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.
