The IESG has approved the following document: - 'A Negative Acknowledgement Mechanism for Signaling Compression ' <draft-ietf-rohc-sigcomp-nack-02.txt> as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Robust Header Compression Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Allison Mankin and Jon Peterson. Technical Summary This specification describes a mechanism that allows Signaling Compression (SigComp RFC 3320) implementations to report precise error information upon receipt of a message which cannot be decompressed. This negative feedback can be used by the recipient to make fine-grained adjustments to the compressed message before retransmitting it, allowing for rapid and efficient recovery from error situations. Working Group Summary The working group supported advanced of this document. There were comments from the SIP and using cellular community as well the working group. Protocol Quality The awareness that this specification was needed arose from implementation experience with SigComp. The error messages and feedback are pragmatic in nature. The document was reviewed for the IESG by Allison Mankin. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
