Datagram Transport Layer Security as Transport for Session Traversal Utilities for NAT
RFC 7350, “Datagram Transport Layer Security as Transport for Session Traversal Utilities for NAT”, is a Proposed Standard document published in August 2014 by M. Petit-Huguenin, G. Salgueiro. It updates RFC 5389, RFC 5928. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document specifies the usage of Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) as a transport protocol for Session Traversal Utilities for NAT (STUN). It provides guidance on when and how to use DTLS with the currently standardized STUN usages. It also specifies modifications to the STUN and Traversal Using Relay NAT (TURN) URIs and to the TURN resolution mechanism to facilitate the resolution of STUN and TURN URIs into the IP address and port of STUN and TURN servers supporting DTLS as a transport protocol. This document updates RFCs 5389 and 5928.
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.
