The IESG has approved the following document: - 'RObust Header Compression (ROHC):Context Replication for ROHC Profiles ' <draft-ietf-rohc-context-replication-06.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 document defines context replication, a complement to the context initialization procedure found in ROHC (Robust Header Compression). Profiles defining support for context replication may use the mechanism described herein to establish a new context based on another already existing context. Context replication is introduced to reduce the overhead of the context establishment procedure, and may be especially useful for the compression of multiple short-lived flows that may be occurring simultaneously or near-simultaneously, such as short-lived TCP flows. Working Group Summary The Working Groups has consensus to publish this document as a Proposed Standard RFC. Protocol Quality This document was reviewed for the IESG by Allison Mankin. It was also reviewed by Brian Carpenter, on behalf of the general area review team. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
