Abstract:
The Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) was designed with TCP as the
underlying transport protocol. The Constrained Application Protocol
(CoAP), while inspired by HTTP, has been defined to make use of UDP
instead of TCP. Therefore, reliable delivery and a simple congestion
control and flow control mechanism are provided by the message layer
of the CoAP protocol.
A number of environments benefit from the use of CoAP directly over a
reliable byte stream such as TCP, which already provides these
services. This document defines the use of CoAP over TCP as well as
CoAP over TLS.
