A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 6230 Title: Media Control Channel Framework Author: C. Boulton, T. Melanchuk, S. McGlashan Status: Standards Track Stream: IETF Date: May 2011 Mailbox: chris@ns-technologies.com, timm@rainwillow.com, smcg.stds01@mcglashan.org Pages: 49 Characters: 112479 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-mediactrl-sip-control-framework-12.txt URL: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6230.txt This document describes a framework and protocol for application deployment where the application programming logic and media processing are distributed. This implies that application programming logic can seamlessly gain access to appropriate resources that are not co-located on the same physical network entity. The framework uses the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) to establish an application-level control mechanism between application servers and associated external servers such as media servers. The motivation for the creation of this framework is to provide an interface suitable to meet the requirements of a centralized conference system, where the conference system can be distributed, as defined by the XCON working group in the IETF. It is not, however, limited to this scope. [STANDARDS-TRACK] This document is a product of the Media Server Control Working Group of the IETF. This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol. STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for the Internet community,and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the Internet Official Protocol Standards (STD 1) for the standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
