The IESG has approved the following document: - 'DCCP Simultaneous-Open Technique to Facilitate NAT/Middlebox Traversal ' <draft-ietf-dccp-simul-open-08.txt> as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Datagram Congestion Control Protocol Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Lars Eggert and Magnus Westerlund. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dccp-simul-open-08.txt Technical Summary This document specifies an update to the Datagram Congestion Control Protocol (DCCP), a connection-oriented and datagram-based transport protocol. The update adds support for the DCCP-Listen packet. This assists DCCP applications to communicate through middleboxes (e.g. a DCCP server behind a firewall, or a Network Address Port Translator), where peering endpoints need to initiate communication in a near- simultaneous manner to establish necessary middlebox state. Working Group Summary A copy of the last-call note was also sent to the BEHAVE WG list. Document Quality Compliance of implementations with the final spec. has not been verified. No interops were performed. Personnel Lars Eggert reviewed this document for the IESG. RFC Editor Note In section 2.2.2, OLD: transitions to the LISTEN' NEW transitions to the LISTEN1 In Caption to Figure 3, OLD: Updated DCCP pseudocode for INVITED and LISTEN' states NEW Updated DCCP pseudocode for INVITED and LISTEN1 states _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
