Network Working Group S. Nandakumar Internet-Draft C. Jennings Intended status: Standards Track Cisco Expires: August 22, 2013 February 18, 2013 A Framework for SDP Attributes when Multiplexing draft-nandakumar-mmusic-sdp-mux-attributes-00 Abstract Communication sessions in RTCWeb are described and negotiated using Session Description Protocol(SDP)[RFC4566] mechanisms. SDP uses attributes to describes specific aspects of such a session. These attributes have different impacts when using varions of multiplexing RTP on a single transport layer flow. The scope of this specification is to provide a framework for analyzing the multiplex characteristics for SDP attributes and provide multiplexing characteristics of existing attributes.

Introduction SDP[RFC4566] defines several attributes for describing specific aspects of a multimedia session. Given the number of SDP attributes registered with IANA [IANA]and the defining new attributes in the future, there is need for future-proof framework to analyze these attributes for their applicability in transport multiplexing use- cases. Few proposed schemes for the same are defined in [I-D.ietf-mmusic-sdp-bundle-negotiation] and [I-D.ietf-avt-multiplexing-rtp] The document starts with providing the motivation for requiring such a framework. This is followed by introduction to the SDP attribute analysis framework/procedures, following which several sections applies the framework to the SDP attributes registered with IANA [IANA] 2. Terminology The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119]. 3. Motivation The time and complications of setting up ICE [RFC5245] and DTLS-SRTP [RFC5763] transports for use by RTP, and conservation of ports, forms an requirement to try and reduce the number of transport level flows needed. This has resulted in the definition of ways to multiplex RTP over a single transport flow in order to preserve network resources such as port numbers. This imposes further restrictions on applicability of these SDP attributes as they are defined today. The specific problem is that there are attribute combinations which make sense when specified on independent m-lines -- as with classical SDP -- that do not make sense when those m-lines are then multiplexed over the same transport. To give an obvious example, ICE permits each m-mline to have an independently specified ice-ufrag attribute. However, if the media from multiple m-lines is multiplexed over the same ICE component, then the meaning of media-level ice-ufrag attributes becomes muddled. As of today there are close to 180 SDP attributes registered with the IANA [IANA] and more will be added in the future. There is no clearly defined procedure to establish the validity/applicability of these attribute when used with multiplexing. Nandakumar & Jennings Expires August 22, 2013 [Page 4] Internet-Draft SDP Attribute Multiplexing February 2013 4. SDP Attribute Analysis Framework An SDP session description consists of a session-level section followed by zero or more media-level sections that could be broken down into following high-level categories o Attributes related to media content such as media type, encoding schemes, payload types to name a few. o Attributes specifying media transport characteristics like RTP/ RTCP port, network addresses, QOS and so on. o Attributes Metadata descriptions such as session timing and origin information. o Attributes establishing relationships between media streams. The proposed framework classifies each attribute into one of the following categories: NORMAL Attributes that can be independently specified when multiplexing and retain their original semantics . BAD Attributes where multiplexing SHOULD NOT be used if these attributes are in use in the SDP. IDENTICAL Attributes that MUST be identical across all the media lines being multiplexed. SUM Attributes can be set as they are normally used but software using them in a multiplex case, MUST apply the sum of all the attributes being multiplexed instead of trying to use each one. This is typically used for bandwidth or other rate limiting attributes to the underlining transport. TRANSPORT Attributes that can be set normally for multiple items in a multiplexed group but the software MUST pick just one of the attribute of the given type for use. The one chosen is the attribute associated with the "m=" lines that represents the information being used for the transport of the RTP. Readers are advised to refer Section TRANSPORT_EXAMPLE (Section 15) for an illustration of this category. SPECIAL Attributes where the text in the draft must be consulted to see how they are handled when multiplexing. The idea behind these categories is to provide recommendations for using the attributes when multiplexing is being used. Section 5 analyzes attributes listed in IANA [IANA] grouped under the IETF document that defines them. The "Current" column indicates whether the attribute is currently specified as: Nandakumar & Jennings Expires August 22, 2013 [Page 5] Internet-Draft SDP Attribute Multiplexing February 2013 o S -- Session level o M -- Media level o B -- Both o SR -- Source-level (for a single SSRC) 5. Analysis of Existing Attributes 5.1. RFC4566 RFC4566 [RFC4566] defines the Session Description Protocol (SDP) that is intended for describing multimedia sessions for the purposes of session announcement, session invitation, and other forms of multimedia session initiation Nandakumar & Jennings Expires August 22, 2013 [Page 6] Internet-Draft SDP Attribute Multiplexing February 2013 +------------+----------------+---------+----------+ | Attr Name | Notes | Current | Category | +------------+----------------+---------+----------+ | sendrecv | Not impacted | B | NORMAL | | | | | | | sendonly | Not impacted | B | NORMAL | | | | | | | recvonly | Not impacted | B | NORMAL | | | | | | | inactive | Not impacted | B | NORMAL | | | | | | | cat | Not impacted | S | NORMAL | | | | | | | ptime | Not Impacted | M | NORMAL | | | | | | | maxptime | Not Impacted | M | NORMAL | | | | | | | orient | Not Impacted | M | NORMAL | | | | | | | framerate | Not Impacted | M | NORMAL | | | | | | | quality | Not Impacted | M | NORMAL | | | | | | | rtpmap | Not Impacted | M | NORMAL | | | | | | | fmtp | Not Impacted | M | NORMAL | | | | | | | keywds | Not impacted | S | NORMAL | | | | | | | type | Not Impacted | S | NORMAL | | | | | | | tool | Not Impacted | S | NORMAL | | | | | | | charset | Not Impacted | S | NORMAL | | | | | | | sdplang | Not Impacted | B | NORMAL | | | | | | | lang | Not Impacted | B | NORMAL | | | | | | +------------+----------------+---------+----------+ RFC4566 Attribute Analysis 5.2. RFC4585 RFC4585 [RFC4585] defines an extension to the Audio-visual Profile (AVP) that enables receivers to provide, statistically, more immediate feedback to the senders and thus allows for short-term Nandakumar & Jennings Expires August 22, 2013 [Page 7] Internet-Draft SDP Attribute Multiplexing February 2013 adaptation and efficient feedback-based repair mechanisms to be implemented. +----------+---------------------------------+---------+------------+ | Attr | Notes | Current | Category | | Name | | | | +----------+---------------------------------+---------+------------+ | rtcp-fb | Since RTCP feedback are | M | IDENTICAL | | | reported per RTP Session, this | | | | | attribute should be repeated | | | | | across m= lines | | | | | | | | +----------+---------------------------------+---------+------------+ RFC4585 Attribute Analysis 5.3. RFC5761 RFC5761 [RFC5761] discusses issues that arise when multiplexing RTP data packets and RTP Control Protocol (RTCP) packets on a single UDP port. It describes when such multiplexing is and is not appropriate, and it explains how the Session Description Protocol (SDP) can be used to signal multiplexed sessions. +-----------+--------------------------------+---------+------------+ | Name | Notes | Current | Category | +-----------+--------------------------------+---------+------------+ | rtcp-mux | RTCP muxing should be repeated | M | IDENTICAL | | | across all the m=lines | | | | | | | | +-----------+--------------------------------+---------+------------+ RFC5761 Attribute Analysis 5.4. RFC4574 RFC4574 [RFC4574] defines a new Session Description Protocol (SDP) media-level attribute: "label". The "label" attribute carries a pointer to a media stream in the context of an arbitrary network application that uses SDP. The sender of the SDP document can attach the "label" attribute to a particular media stream or streams. The application can then use the provided pointer to refer to each particular media stream in its context.

RFC5762 The Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) is a widely used transport for real-time multimedia on IP networks. The Datagram Congestion Control Protocol (DCCP) is a transport protocol that provides desirable services for real-time applications.

RFC6787 The Media Resource Control Protocol Version 2 (MRCPv2) allows client hosts to control media service resources such as speech synthesizers, recognizers, verifiers, and identifiers residing in servers on the network. MRCPv2 is not a "stand-alone" protocol -- it relies on other protocols, such as the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP), to coordinate MRCPv2 clients and servers and manage sessions between them, and the Session Description Protocol (SDP) to describe, discover, and exchange capabilities. It also depends on SIP and SDP to establish the media sessions and associated parameters between the media source or sink and the media server. Once this is done, the MRCPv2 exchange operates over the control session established above, allowing the client to control the media processing resources on the speech resource server. RFC6787 [RFC6787] defines attributes for this purpose. +-----------+---------------+---------+----------+ | Name | Notes | Current | Category | +-----------+---------------+---------+----------+ | resource | Not Impacted | M | NORMAL | | | | | | | channel | Not Impacted | M | NORMAL | | | | | | | | Not Impacted | M | NORMAL | | | | | | +-----------+---------------+---------+----------+ RFC6787 Attribute Analysis 5.11. RFC5245 RFC5245 [RFC5245] describes a protocol for Network Address Translator(NAT) traversal for UDP-based multimedia sessions established with the offer/answer model. This protocol is called Interactive Connectivity Establishment (ICE). ICE makes use of the Session Traversal Utilities for NAT (STUN) protocol and its Nandakumar & Jennings Expires August 22, 2013 [Page 11] Internet-Draft SDP Attribute Multiplexing February 2013 extension,Traversal Using Relay NAT (TURN).

RFC5285 RFC5285 [RFC5285] provides a general mechanism to use the header extension feature of RTP (the Real-Time Transport Protocol). It provides the option to use a small number of small extensions in each RTP packet, where the universe of possible extensions is large and registration is de-centralized. The actual extensions in use in a session are signaled in the setup information for that session.

RFC5576 RFC5576 [RFC5576] defines a mechanism to describe RTP media sources, which are identified by their synchronization source (SSRC) identifiers, in SDP, to associate attributes with these sources, and to express relationships among sources. It also defines several source-level attributes that can be used to describe properties of media sources.

A possible use case is to make it possible for a low-end hand- held terminal to display video without the need to rescale the image, something that may consume large amounts of memory and processing power. The document also helps to maintain an optimal bitrate for video as only the image size that is desired by the receiver is transmitted. +------------+---------------+---------+----------+ | Name | Notes | Current | Category | +------------+---------------+---------+----------+ | imageattr | Not Impacted | M | NORMAL | | | | | | +------------+---------------+---------+----------+ RFC6236 Attribute Analysis Nandakumar & Jennings Expires August 22, 2013 [Page 14] Internet-Draft SDP Attribute Multiplexing February 2013 5.16. RFC6285 RFC6285 [RFC6285] describes a method using the existing RTP and RTP Control Protocol (RTCP) machinery that reduces the acquisition delay. In this method, an auxiliary unicast RTP session carrying the Reference Information to the receiver precedes or accompanies the multicast stream. This unicast RTP flow can be transmitted at a faster than natural bitrate to further accelerate the acquisition. The motivating use case for this capability is multicast applications that carry real-time compressed audio and video. +---------------+-------------------+---------+----------+ | Name | Notes | Current | Category | +---------------+-------------------+---------+----------+ | rams-updates | Not recommended | M | BAD | | | | | | +---------------+-------------------+---------+----------+ RFC6285 Attribute Analysis 5.17.

RFC6128 The Session Description Protocol (SDP) has an attribute that allows RTP applications to specify an address and a port associated with the RTP Control Protocol (RTCP) traffic. In RTP-based source-specific multicast (SSM) sessions, the same attribute is used to designate the address and the RTCP port of the Feedback Target in the SDP description. However, the RTCP port associated with the SSM session itself cannot be specified by the same attribute to avoid ambiguity, and thus, is required to be derived from the "m=" line of the media description. Deriving the RTCP port from the "m=" line imposes an unnecessary restriction.

RFC6642 In a large RTP session using the RTP Control Protocol (RTCP) feedback mechanism defined in RFC 4585 [RFC4585], a feedback target may experience transient overload if some event causes a large number of receivers to send feedback at once. This overload is usually avoided by ensuring that feedback reports are forwarded to all receivers, allowing them to avoid sending duplicate feedback reports. However, there are cases where it is not recommended to forward feedback reports, and this may allow feedback implosion. RFC6642 [RFC6642] memo discusses these cases and defines a new RTCP Third-Party Loss Report that can be used to inform receivers that the feedback target is aware of some loss event, allowing them to suppress feedback.
