Abstract

This document describes a UDP-based convergence layer (UDPCL) for Delay-Tolerant Networking (DTN). This version of the UDPCL protocol clarifies requirements of RFC7122, adds discussion of multicast addressing, and updates to the Bundle Protocol (BP) contents, encodings, and convergence layer requirements in BP Version 7. Specifically, the UDPCL uses CBOR-encoded BPv7 bundles as its service data unit being transported and provides a reliable transport of such bundles. This version of UDPCL also includes security and extensibility mechanisms.
