RTCP for source specific multicast networks
Julian Chesterfield
Modifications to RTCP for operation over Source Specific Multicast
networks
Source Specific Multicast is a promising technology that is currently
experiencing significant deployment throughout the internet. One of
the challenges presented by the new model, i.e. one-to-many broadcast
capability, is that it breaks the operation of existing higher level
many-to-many applications. RTCP, the accompanying control protocol to
RTP, is one such victim. This talk will present the current work
within the IETF to introduce changes to RTCP to address this problem,
some new algorithms that are being proposed and the security issues
that are also involved.
