A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : HTTP Fallback for RTP Media Streams Author(s) : Lorenzo Miniero Filename : draft-miniero-rtcweb-http-fallback-00.txt Pages : 19 Date : 2012-08-07 Abstract: Almost all VoIP endpoints, especially SIP and RTCWEB ones, make use of RTP to tranport media frames in real-time and communicate with each other. Since RTP uses UDP, the presence of network elements that filter UDP packets and/or only allow some protocols like SMTP or HTTP to pass through would make such a communication very hard to accomplish, if not impossible. This draft describes a way to implement an HTTP Fallback for RTP media streams, that is, a way to effectively encapsulate RTP packets in HTTP messages in order to traverse proxies and firewalls.
