A SIP Usage for REsource LOcation And Discovery
RFC 7904, “A SIP Usage for REsource LOcation And Discovery”, is a Proposed Standard document published in October 2016 by C. Jennings, B. Lowekamp, E. Rescorla, S. Baset, H. Schulzrinne, T. Schmidt. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document defines a SIP Usage for REsource LOcation And Discovery (RELOAD). The SIP Usage provides the functionality of a SIP proxy or registrar in a fully distributed system and includes a lookup service for Address of Records (AORs) stored in the overlay. It also defines Globally Routable User Agent URIs (GRUUs) that allow the registrations to map an AOR to a specific node reachable through the overlay. After such initial contact of a Peer, the RELOAD AppAttach method is used to establish a direct connection between nodes through which SIP messages are exchanged.
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.
