Multiplexing Scheme Updates for Secure Real-time Transport Protocol Extension for Datagram Transport Layer Security
RFC 7983, “Multiplexing Scheme Updates for Secure Real-time Transport Protocol Extension for Datagram Transport Layer Security”, is a Proposed Standard document published in September 2016 by M. Petit-Huguenin, G. Salgueiro. It updates RFC 5764. It has since been updated by RFC 9443. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document defines how Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS), Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP), RTP Control Protocol (RTCP), Session Traversal Utilities for NAT (STUN), Traversal Using Relays around NAT (TURN), and ZRTP packets are multiplexed on a single receiving socket. It overrides the guidance from RFC 5764 ("SRTP Extension for DTLS"), which suffered from four issues described and fixed in this document.
This document updates RFC 5764.
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.
