Title : Codec-Independent Selective Forwarding

Abstract:
Selective Forwarding Units (SFUs) supporting Scalable Video Coding
(SVC) typically parse the RTP payload in the forwarding plane, and
often utilize codec-specific control messages within the control
plane. As a result, the control and/or forwarding planes of these
implementations need to be modified (sometimes substantially) in
order to support additional video codecs. With SFUs now supporting
VP8 in addition to H.264/SVC, and with additional video codecs
expected to become popular, the inflexibility of SFU designs that
depend on RTP payload parsing has become increasingly apparent. In
addition, these designs cannot function where the RTP payload is
inaccessible, such as when it is encrypted with a key not available
to the SFU. Based on a summary of SFU implementation practice, this
document develops requirements for codec-independent SFUs.
