1.  Introduction

   [RFC5763] defines SDP Offer/Answer procedures for SRTP-DTLS.
   [RFC7345] defines SDP offer/answer procedures for UDPTL-DTLS.  This
   specification defines general offer/answer procedures for DTLS, based
   on the procedures in [RFC5763].  Other specifications, defining
   specific DTLS usages, can then reference this specification, in order
   to ensure that the DTLS aspects are common among all usages.  Having
   common procedures is essential when multiple usages share the same
   DTLS association [I-D.ietf-mmusic-sdp-bundle-negotiation].  The draft
   updates [RFC5763] and [RFC7345], by replacing common SDP offer/answer
   procedures with a reference to this specification.

Internet-DraftUsing the SDP Offer/Answer Mechanism for DTLS    July 2016


   As defined in [RFC5763], a new DTLS association MUST be established
   when transport parameters are changed.  Transport parameter change is
   not well defined when Interactive Connectivity Establishment (ICE)
   [RFC5245] is used.  One possible way to determine a transport change
   is based on ufrag change, but the ufrag value is changed both when
   ICE is negotiated and when ICE restart [RFC5245] occurs.  These
   events do not always require a new DTLS association to be
   established, but currently there is no way to explicitly indicate in
   an SDP offer or answer whether a new DTLS association is required.
   To solve that problem, this draft defines a new SDP attribute, 'dtls-
   id'.  The attribute contains a unique value associated with a DTLS
   association, and by providing a new value in SDP offers and answers
   the attribute can be used to indicate whether a new DTLS association
   is to be established/re-established.

2.  Conventions

   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
   document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].

3.  Establishing a new DTLS Association

3.1.  General

   A new DTLS association MUST be established in the following cases:

   o  The DTLS roles change;

   o  One or more fingerprint values are modified, added or removed; or

   o  The intent to establish a new DTLS association is explicitly
      signaled;

   NOTE: The first two items list above are based on the procedures in
   [RFC5763].  This specification adds the support for explicit
   signaling.

   Whenever an entity determines, based on the criteria above, that a
   new DTLS association is required, the entity MUST initiate an
   associated SDP offer/answer transaction, following the procedures in
   Section 5.

   The sections below describe typical cases where a new DTLS
   association needs to be established.

Internet-DraftUsing the SDP Offer/Answer Mechanism for DTLS    July 2016


3.2.  Change of Local Transport Parameters

   If an endpoint modifies its local transport parameters (address and/
   or port), and if the modification requires a new DTLS association,
   the endpoint MUST change its DTLS role, change its fingerprint value,
   and/or use the SDP 'dtls-id' attribute with a new value Section 4.

   If the underlying transport explicitly prohibits a DTLS association
   to span multiple transports, and if the transport is changed, a new
   value MUST be assigned to the the SDP 'dtls-id' attribute.  An
   example of such case is when DTLS is carried over SCTP, as described
   in [RFC6083].

3.3.  Change of ICE ufrag value

   If an endpoint uses ICE, and modifies a local ufrag value, and if the
   modification requires a new DTLS association, the endpoint MUST
   either change its DTLS role, a fingerprint value and/or assign a new
   value to the SDP 'dtls-id' attribute Section 4.

4.  SDP dtls-id Attribute

   The SDP 'dtls-id' attribute contains a unique value associated with a
   DTLS association.


          Name: dtls-id

          Value: conn-value

          Usage Level: media

          Charset Dependent: no

          Syntax:

              conn-value = 1*256alphanum

          Example:

              a=dtls-id:abc3dl


   A 'dtls-id' attribute that contains a new value indicates an
   intention to establish a new DTLS association.  A 'dtls-id' attribute
   that contains a previously assigned value indicates an intention to
   reuse an existing association.




Holmberg & Shpount      Expires January 19, 2017                [Page 4]


Internet-DraftUsing the SDP Offer/Answer Mechanism for DTLS    July 2016


   There is no default value defined for the SDP 'dtls-id' attribute.
   Implementations that wish to use the attribute MUST explicitly
   include it in SDP offers and answers.  If an offer or answer does not
   contain an attribute (this could happen if the offerer or answerer
   represents an existing implementation that has not been updated to
   support the attribute defined in this specification or an
   implementation which allocates a new temporary certificate for each
   association and uses change in fingerprint to indicate new
   association), other means needs to be used in order for endpoints to
   determine whether an offer or answer is associated with an event that
   requires the DTLS association to be re-established.

   The mux category [I-D.ietf-mmusic-sdp-mux-attributes] for the 'dtls-
   id' attribute is 'IDENTICAL', which means that the attribute value
   must be identical across all media descriptions being multiplexed
   [I-D.ietf-mmusic-sdp-bundle-negotiation].

   For RTP-based media, the 'dtls-id' attribute apply to whole
   associated media description.  The attribute MUST NOT be defined per
   source (using the SDP 'ssrc' attribute [RFC5576]).

   The SDP offer/answer [RFC3264] procedures associated with the
   attribute are defined in Section 5

5.  SDP Offer/Answer Procedures

5.1.  General

   This section defines the generic SDP offer/answer procedures for
   negotiating a DTLS association.  Additional procedures (e.g.
   regarding usage of specific SDP attributes etc) for individual DTLS
   usages (e.g.  SRTP-DTLS) are outside the scope of this specification,
   and need to be specified in a usage specific specification.

   NOTE: The procedures in this section are generalizations of
   procedures first specified in SRTP-DTLS [RFC5763], with the addition
   of usage of the SDP 'dtls-id' attribute.  That document is herein
   revised to make use of these new procedures.

   The procedures in this section apply to an SDP media description
   ("m=" line) associated a DTLS-protected media/data.

   When an offerer needs to establish a new DTLS association, and if an
   unordered transport (e.g.  UDP) is used, the offerer MUST allocate a
   new transport for the offer in such a way that the offerer can
   disambiguate any packets associated with the new DTLS association
   from any packets associated with any other DTLS association.  This
   typically means using a local address and or port, or a set of ICE



Holmberg & Shpount      Expires January 19, 2017                [Page 5]


Internet-DraftUsing the SDP Offer/Answer Mechanism for DTLS    July 2016


   candidates (see Section 6), which were not recently used for any
   other DTLS association.

   When an answerer needs to establish a new DTLS association, if an
   unordered transport is used, and if the offerer did not allocate a
   new transport, the answerer MUST allocate a new transport for the
   offer in answer a way that it can disambiguate any packets associated
   with new DTLS association from any packets associated with any other
   DTLS association.  This typically means using a local address and or
   port, or a set of ICE candidates (see Section 6), which were not
   recently used for any other DTLS association.

   In order to negotiate a DTLS association, the following SDP
   attributes are used:

   o  The SDP 'setup' attribute, defined in [RFC4145], is used to
      negotiate the DTLS roles;

   o  The SDP 'fingerprint' attribute, defined in [RFC4572], is used to
      provide a fingerprint value; and

   o  The SDP 'dtls-id' attribute, defined in this specification,
      indicates a unique value associated with the DTLS association.
      The attribute value can be used to explicitly indicate the
      intention of establishing a new DTLS association.

   This specification does not define the usage of the SDP 'connection'
   attribute [RFC4145] for negotiating a DTLS connection.  However, the
   attribute MAY be used if the DTLS association is used together with
   another protocol, e.g.  SCTP or TCP, for which the usage of the
   attribute has been defined.

   Unlike for TCP and TLS connections, endpoints MUST NOT use the SDP
   'setup' attribute 'holdconn' value when negotiating a DTLS
   association.

   Endpoints MUST support SHA-256 for generating and verifying any
   fingerprint value associated with the DTLS association.  The use of
   SHA-256 is preferred.

   Endpoints MUST, at a minimum, support
   TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 and MUST support
   TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256.  UDPTL over DTLS MUST prefer
   TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 and any other Perfect Forward
   Secrecy (PFS) cipher suites over non-PFS cipher suites.
   Implementations SHOULD disable TLS-level compression.

Internet-DraftUsing the SDP Offer/Answer Mechanism for DTLS    July 2016


   The certificate received during the DTLS handshake MUST match at
   least one of the certificate fingerprints received in SDP
   'fingerprint' attributes.  If no fingerprint matches the hashed
   certificate, then an endpoint MUST tear down the media session
   immediately.  Note that it is permissible to wait until the other
   side's fingerprint has been received before establishing the
   connection; however, this may have undesirable latency effects.

   SDP offerers and answerers might reuse certificates across multiple
   DTLS associations, and provide identical fingerprint values for each
   DTLS association.  It MUST be ensured that the combination of the
   fingerprint values and the SDP 'dtls-id' attribute value is unique
   across all DTLS associations.

   If an SDP offerer or answerer generates a new temporary self-signed
   certificate for each new DTLS association, they can omit the SDP
   'dtls-id' attribute.

5.2.  Generating the Initial SDP Offer

   When the offerer sends the initial offer, and the offerer wants to
   establish a DTLS association, it MUST insert an SDP 'dtls-id'
   attribute with a new value in the offer.  In addition, the offerer
   MUST insert an SDP 'setup' attribute according to the procedures in
   [RFC4145], and one or more SDP 'fingerprint' attributes according to
   the procedures in [RFC4572], in the offer.

   If the offerer inserts the SDP 'setup' attribute with an 'actpass' or
   'passive' value, the offerer MUST be prepared to receive a DTLS
   ClientHello message (if a new DTLS association is established by the
   answerer) from the answerer before it receives the SDP answer.

5.3.  Generating the Answer

   If an answerer receives an offer that contains an SDP 'dtls-id'
   attribute with a new value, or if the answerer receives an offer that
   contains an 'dtls-id' attribute with a previously assigned value and
   the answerer determines (based on the criteria for establishing a new
   DTLS association) that a new DTLS association is to be established,
   the answerer MUST insert a new value in the associated answer.  In
   addition, the answerer MUST insert an SDP 'setup' attribute according
   to the procedures in [RFC4145], and one or more SDP 'fingerprint'
   attributes according to the procedures in [RFC4572], in the answer.

   If an answerer receives an offer that contains an SDP 'dtls-id'
   attribute with a new value, and if the answerer does not accept the
   establishment of a new DTLS association, the answerer MUST reject the
   "m=" lines associated with the suggested DTLS association [RFC3264].

Internet-DraftUsing the SDP Offer/Answer Mechanism for DTLS    July 2016


   If an answerer receives an offer that contains a 'dtls-id' attribute
   with a previously assigned value, and if the answerer determines that
   a new DTLS association is not to be established, the answerer MUST
   insert a 'dtls-id' attribute with the previously assigned value in
   the associated answer.  In addition, the answerer MUST insert an SDP
   'setup' attribute with a value that does not change the previously
   negotiated DTLS roles, and one or more SDP 'fingerprint' attributes
   values that do not change the previously sent fingerprints, in the
   answer.

   If the answerer receives an offer that does not contain an SDP 'dtls-
   id' attribute, the answerer MUST NOT insert a 'dtls-id' attribute in
   the answer.

   If a new DTLS association is to be established, and if the answerer
   inserts an SDP 'setup' attribute with an 'active' value in the
   answer, the answerer MUST initiate a DTLS handshake by sending a DTLS
   ClientHello message towards the offerer.

5.4.  Offerer Processing of the SDP Answer

   When an offerer receives an answer that contains an SDP 'dtls-id'
   attribute with a new value, and if the offerer becomes DTLS client
   (based on the value of the SDP 'setup' attribute value [RFC4145]),
   the offerer MUST establish a DTLS association.  If the offerer
   becomes DTLS server, it MUST wait for the answerer to establish the
   DTLS association.

   If the answer contains an SDP 'dtls-id' attribute with a previously
   assigned value, the offerer will continue using the previously
   established DTLS association.  It is considered an error case if the
   answer contains a 'dtls-id' attribute with a previously assigned
   value, and a DTLS association does not exist.

   An offerer needs to be able to handle error conditions that can occur
   during an offer/answer transaction, e.g. if an answer contains an SDP
   'dtls-id' attribute with a previosuly assigned value even if no DTLS
   association exists, or if the answer contains one or more new
   fingerprint values for an existing DTLS association.  If such error
   case occurs, the offerer SHOULD terminate the associated DTLS
   association (if it exists) and send a new offer in order to terminate
   each media stream using the DTLS association, by setting the
   associated port value to zero [RFC4145].

5.5.  Modifying the Session

   When the offerer sends a subsequent offer, and if the offerer wants
   to establish a new DTLS association, the offerer MUST insert an SDP
   'dtls-id' attribute with a new value in the offer.  In addition, the
   offerer MUST insert an SDP 'setup' attribute according to the
   procedures in [RFC4145], and one or more SDP 'fingerprint' attributes
   according to the procedures in [RFC4572], in the offer.

   when the offerer sends a subsequent offer, and the offerer does not
   want to establish a new DTLS association, and if a previously
   established DTLS association exists, the offerer MUST insert an SDP
   'dtls-id' attribute with a previously assigned value in the offer.
   In addition, the offerer MUST insert an SDP 'setup' attribute with a
   value that does not change the previously negotiated DTLS roles, and
   one or more SDP 'fingerprint' attributes with values that do not
   change the previously sent fingerprints, in the offer.

   NOTE: When a new DTLS association is established, each endpoint needs
   to be prepared to receive data on both the new and old DTLS
   associations as long as both are alive.

6.  ICE Considerations

   When ICE is used, the ICE connectivity checks are performed before
   the DTLS handshake begins.  Note that if aggressive nomination mode
   is used, multiple candidate pairs may be marked valid before ICE
   finally converges on a single candidate pair.

   NOTE: Aggressive nomination has been deprecated from ICE, but must
   still be supported for backwards compatibility reasons.

   When new DTLS association is established over an unordered transport,
   in order to disambiguate any packets associated with newly
   established DTLS association, at least one of the endpoints MUST
   allocate a completely new set of ICE candidates which were not
   recently used for any other DTLS association.  This means that
   answerer cannot initiate a new DTLS association unless the offerer
   initiated ICE restart [RFC5245].  If the answerer wants to initiate a
   new DTLS association, it needs to initiate an ICE restart on its own.
   However, an ICE restart does not by default require a new DTLS
   association to be established.

   NOTE: Simple Traversal of the UDP Protocol through NAT (STUN) packets
   are sent directly over UDP, not over DTLS.  [RFC3261] describes how
   to demultiplex STUN packets from DTLS packets and SRTP packets.

Internet-DraftUsing the SDP Offer/Answer Mechanism for DTLS    July 2016


   Each ICE candidate associated with a component is treated as being
   part of the same DTLS association.  Therefore, from a DTLS
   perspective it is not considered a change of local transport
   parameters when an endpoint switches between those ICE candidates.

7.  Transport Protocol Considerations

7.1.  Transport Re-Usage

   If DTLS is transported on top of a connection-oriented transport
   protocol (e.g.  TCP or SCTP), where all IP packets are acknowledged,
   all DTLS packets associated with a previous DTLS association MUST be
   acknowledged (or timed out) before a new DTLS association can be
   established on the same transport.

8.  SIP Considerations

   When the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) [RFC3261] is used as the
   signal protocol for establishing a multimedia session, dialogs
   [RFC3261] might be established between the caller and multiple
   callees.  This is referred to as forking.  If forking occurs,
   separate DTLS associations MUST be established between the caller and
   each callee.

   It is possible to send an INVITE request which does not contain an
   SDP offer.  Such INVITE request is often referred to as an 'empty
   INVITE', or an 'offer-less INVITE'.  The receiving endpoint will
   include the SDP offer in a response associated with the response.
   When the endpoint generates such SDP offer, if a previously
   established DTLS association exists, the offerer SHOULD insert an SDP
   'dtls-id' attribute, and one or more SDP 'fingerprint' attributes,
   with previously assigned attribute values.  If a previously
   established DTLS association did not exists offer SHOULD be generated
   based on the same rules as new offer Section 5.2.  Regardless of the
   previous existence of DTLS association, the SDP 'setup' attribute
   MUST be included according to rules defiend in [RFC4145] and if ICE
   is used, ICE restart MUST be initiated.

9.  RFC Updates

9.1.  General

   This section updates specifications that use DTLS-protected media, in
   order to reflect the procedures defined in this specification.

9.2.  Update to RFC 5763


Update to section 5:
--------------------

OLD TEXT:

5.  Establishing a Secure Channel

   The two endpoints in the exchange present their identities as part of
   the DTLS handshake procedure using certificates.  This document uses
   certificates in the same style as described in "Connection-Oriented
   Media Transport over the Transport Layer Security (TLS) Protocol in
   the Session Description Protocol (SDP)" [RFC4572].

   If self-signed certificates are used, the content of the
   subjectAltName attribute inside the certificate MAY use the uniform
   resource identifier (URI) of the user.  This is useful for debugging
   purposes only and is not required to bind the certificate to one of
   the communication endpoints.  The integrity of the certificate is
   ensured through the fingerprint attribute in the SDP.  The
   subjectAltName is not an important component of the certificate
   verification.

   The generation of public/private key pairs is relatively expensive.
   Endpoints are not required to generate certificates for each session.

   The offer/answer model, defined in [RFC3264], is used by protocols
   like the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) [RFC3261] to set up
   multimedia sessions.  In addition to the usual contents of an SDP
   [RFC4566] message, each media description ("m=" line and associated
   parameters) will also contain several attributes as specified in
   [RFC5764], [RFC4145], and [RFC4572].

   When an endpoint wishes to set up a secure media session with another
   endpoint, it sends an offer in a SIP message to the other endpoint.
   This offer includes, as part of the SDP payload, the fingerprint of
   the certificate that the endpoint wants to use.  The endpoint SHOULD
   send the SIP message containing the offer to the offerer's SIP proxy
   over an integrity protected channel.  The proxy SHOULD add an
   Identity header field according to the procedures outlined in
   [RFC4474].  The SIP message containing the offer SHOULD be sent to
   the offerer's SIP proxy over an integrity protected channel.  When
   the far endpoint receives the SIP message, it can verify the identity
   of the sender using the Identity header field.  Since the Identity
   header field is a digital signature across several SIP header fields,
   in addition to the body of the SIP message, the receiver can also be

   certain that the message has not been tampered with after the digital
   signature was applied and added to the SIP message.

   The far endpoint (answerer) may now establish a DTLS association with
   the offerer.  Alternately, it can indicate in its answer that the
   offerer is to initiate the TLS association.  In either case, mutual
   DTLS certificate-based authentication will be used.  After completing
   the DTLS handshake, information about the authenticated identities,
   including the certificates, are made available to the endpoint
   application.  The answerer is then able to verify that the offerer's
   certificate used for authentication in the DTLS handshake can be
   associated to the certificate fingerprint contained in the offer in
   the SDP.  At this point, the answerer may indicate to the end user
   that the media is secured.  The offerer may only tentatively accept
   the answerer's certificate since it may not yet have the answerer's
   certificate fingerprint.

   When the answerer accepts the offer, it provides an answer back to
   the offerer containing the answerer's certificate fingerprint.  At
   this point, the offerer can accept or reject the peer's certificate
   and the offerer can indicate to the end user that the media is
   secured.

   Note that the entire authentication and key exchange for securing the
   media traffic is handled in the media path through DTLS.  The
   signaling path is only used to verify the peers' certificate
   fingerprints.

   The offer and answer MUST conform to the following requirements.

   o  The endpoint MUST use the setup attribute defined in [RFC4145].
      The endpoint that is the offerer MUST use the setup attribute
      value of setup:actpass and be prepared to receive a client_hello
      before it receives the answer.  The answerer MUST use either a
      setup attribute value of setup:active or setup:passive.  Note that
      if the answerer uses setup:passive, then the DTLS handshake will
      not begin until the answerer is received, which adds additional
      latency. setup:active allows the answer and the DTLS handshake to
      occur in parallel.  Thus, setup:active is RECOMMENDED.  Whichever
      party is active MUST initiate a DTLS handshake by sending a
      ClientHello over each flow (host/port quartet).

   o  The endpoint MUST NOT use the connection attribute defined in
      [RFC4145].

   o  The endpoint MUST use the certificate fingerprint attribute as
      specified in [RFC4572].

   o  The certificate presented during the DTLS handshake MUST match the
      fingerprint exchanged via the signaling path in the SDP.  The
      security properties of this mechanism are described in Section 8.

   o  If the fingerprint does not match the hashed certificate, then the
      endpoint MUST tear down the media session immediately.  Note that
      it is permissible to wait until the other side's fingerprint has
      been received before establishing the connection; however, this
      may have undesirable latency effects.


NEW TEXT:

5.  Establishing a Secure Channel

   The two endpoints in the exchange present their identities as part of
   the DTLS handshake procedure using certificates.  This document uses
   certificates in the same style as described in "Connection-Oriented
   Media Transport over the Transport Layer Security (TLS) Protocol in
   the Session Description Protocol (SDP)" [RFC4572].

   If self-signed certificates are used, the content of the
   subjectAltName attribute inside the certificate MAY use the uniform
   resource identifier (URI) of the user.  This is useful for debugging
   purposes only and is not required to bind the certificate to one of
   the communication endpoints.  The integrity of the certificate is
   ensured through the fingerprint attribute in the SDP.

   The generation of public/private key pairs is relatively expensive.
   Endpoints are not required to generate certificates for each session.

   The offer/answer model, defined in [RFC3264], is used by protocols
   like the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) [RFC3261] to set up
   multimedia sessions.

   When an endpoint wishes to set up a secure media session with another
   endpoint, it sends an offer in a SIP message to the other endpoint.
   This offer includes, as part of the SDP payload, a fingerprint of
   a certificate that the endpoint wants to use.  The endpoint SHOULD
   send the SIP message containing the offer to the offerer's SIP proxy
   over an integrity protected channel.  The proxy SHOULD add an
   Identity header field according to the procedures outlined in
   [RFC4474].  The SIP message containing the offer SHOULD be sent to
   the offerer's SIP proxy over an integrity protected channel.  When
   the far endpoint receives the SIP message, it can verify the identity
   of the sender using the Identity header field.  Since the Identity
   header field is a digital signature across several SIP header fields,
   in addition to the body of the SIP message, the receiver can also be

   certain that the message has not been tampered with after the digital
   signature was applied and added to the SIP message.

   The far endpoint (answerer) may now establish a DTLS association with
   the offerer.  Alternately, it can indicate in its answer that the
   offerer is to initiate the DTLS association.  In either case, mutual
   DTLS certificate-based authentication will be used.  After completing
   the DTLS handshake, information about the authenticated identities,
   including the certificates, are made available to the endpoint
   application.  The answerer is then able to verify that the offerer's
   certificate used for authentication in the DTLS handshake can be
   associated to the certificate fingerprint contained in the offer in
   the SDP.  At this point, the answerer may indicate to the end user
   that the media is secured.  The offerer may only tentatively accept
   the answerer's certificate since it may not yet have the answerer's
   certificate fingerprint.

   When the answerer accepts the offer, it provides an answer back to
   the offerer containing the answerer's certificate fingerprint.  At
   this point, the offerer can accept or reject the peer's certificate
   and the offerer can indicate to the end user that the media is
   secured.

   Note that the entire authentication and key exchange for securing the
   media traffic is handled in the media path through DTLS.  The
   signaling path is only used to verify the peers' certificate
   fingerprints.

   The offerer and answerer MUST follow the SDP offer/answer procedures
   defined in [RFCXXXX].


Update to section 6.6:
----------------------

OLD TEXT:

6.6.  Session Modification

   Once an answer is provided to the offerer, either endpoint MAY
   request a session modification that MAY include an updated offer.
   This session modification can be carried in either an INVITE or
   UPDATE request.  The peers can reuse the existing associations if
   they are compatible (i.e., they have the same key fingerprints and
   transport parameters), or establish a new one following the same
   rules are for initial exchanges, tearing down the existing
   association as soon as the offer/answer exchange is completed.  Note
   that if the active/passive status of the endpoints changes, a new

Update to section 6.7.1:
------------------------

OLD TEXT:

6.7.1.  ICE Interaction

   Interactive Connectivity Establishment (ICE), as specified in
   [RFC5245], provides a methodology of allowing participants in
   multimedia sessions to verify mutual connectivity.  When ICE is being
   used, the ICE connectivity checks are performed before the DTLS
   handshake begins.  Note that if aggressive nomination mode is used,
   multiple candidate pairs may be marked valid before ICE finally
   converges on a single candidate pair.  Implementations MUST treat all
   ICE candidate pairs associated with a single component as part of the
   same DTLS association.  Thus, there will be only one DTLS handshake
   even if there are multiple valid candidate pairs.  Note that this may
   mean adjusting the endpoint IP addresses if the selected candidate
   pair shifts, just as if the DTLS packets were an ordinary media
   stream.

   Note that Simple Traversal of the UDP Protocol through NAT (STUN)
   packets are sent directly over UDP, not over DTLS.  [RFC5764]
   describes how to demultiplex STUN packets from DTLS packets and SRTP
   packets.

   packets.


9.3.  Update to RFC 7345


Update to section 4:
--------------------

OLD TEXT:

4.  SDP Offerer/Answerer Procedures

4.1.  General

   An endpoint (i.e., both the offerer and the answerer) MUST create an
   SDP media description ("m=" line) for each UDPTL-over-DTLS media
   stream and MUST assign a UDP/TLS/UDPTL value (see Table 1) to the
   "proto" field of the "m=" line.

   The procedures in this section apply to an "m=" line associated with
   a UDPTL-over-DTLS media stream.

   In order to negotiate a UDPTL-over-DTLS media stream, the following
   SDP attributes are used:

   o  The SDP attributes defined for UDPTL over UDP, as described in
      [ITU.T38.2010]; and

   o  The SDP attributes, defined in [RFC4145] and [RFC4572], as
      described in this section.

   The endpoint MUST NOT use the SDP "connection" attribute [RFC4145].

   In order to negotiate the TLS roles for the UDPTL-over-DTLS transport
   connection, the endpoint MUST use the SDP "setup" attribute
   [RFC4145].

   If the endpoint supports, and is willing to use, a cipher suite with
   an associated certificate, the endpoint MUST include an SDP
   "fingerprint" attribute [RFC4572].  The endpoint MUST support SHA-256
   for generating and verifying the SDP "fingerprint" attribute value.
   The use of SHA-256 is preferred.  UDPTL over DTLS, at a minimum, MUST
   support TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 and MUST support
   TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256.  UDPTL over DTLS MUST prefer
   TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 and any other Perfect Forward
   Secrecy (PFS) cipher suites over non-PFS cipher suites.

Internet-DraftUsing the SDP Offer/Answer Mechanism for DTLS    July 2016


   Implementations SHOULD disable TLS-level compression.

   If a cipher suite with an associated certificate is selected during
   the DTLS handshake, the certificate received during the DTLS
   handshake MUST match the fingerprint received in the SDP
   "fingerprint" attribute.  If the fingerprint does not match the
   hashed certificate, then the endpoint MUST tear down the media
   session immediately.  Note that it is permissible to wait until the
   other side's fingerprint has been received before establishing the
   connection; however, this may have undesirable latency effects.

4.2.  Generating the Initial Offer

   The offerer SHOULD assign the SDP "setup" attribute with a value of
   "actpass", unless the offerer insists on being either the sender or
   receiver of the DTLS ClientHello message, in which case the offerer
   can use either a value of "active" (the offerer will be the sender of
   ClientHello) or "passive" (the offerer will be the receiver of
   ClientHello).  The offerer MUST NOT assign an SDP "setup" attribute
   with a "holdconn" value.

   If the offerer assigns the SDP "setup" attribute with a value of
   "actpass" or "passive", the offerer MUST be prepared to receive a
   DTLS ClientHello message before it receives the SDP answer.

4.3.  Generating the Answer

   If the answerer accepts the offered UDPTL-over-DTLS transport
   connection, in the associated SDP answer, the answerer MUST assign an
   SDP "setup" attribute with a value of either "active" or "passive",
   according to the procedures in [RFC4145].  The answerer MUST NOT
   assign an SDP "setup" attribute with a value of "holdconn".

   If the answerer assigns an SDP "setup" attribute with a value of
   "active" value, the answerer MUST initiate a DTLS handshake by
   sending a DTLS ClientHello message on the negotiated media stream,
   towards the IP address and port of the offerer.

4.4.  Offerer Processing of the Answer

   When the offerer receives an SDP answer, if the offerer ends up being
   active it MUST initiate a DTLS handshake by sending a DTLS
   ClientHello message on the negotiated media stream, towards the IP
   address and port of the answerer.

4.5.  Modifying the Session

   Once an offer/answer exchange has been completed, either endpoint MAY

Internet-DraftUsing the SDP Offer/Answer Mechanism for DTLS    July 2016


   send a new offer in order to modify the session.  The endpoints can
   reuse the existing DTLS association if the key fingerprint values and
   transport parameters indicated by each endpoint are unchanged.
   Otherwise, following the rules for the initial offer/answer exchange,
   the endpoints can negotiate and create a new DTLS association and,
   once created, delete the previous DTLS association, following the
   same rules for the initial offer/answer exchange.  Each endpoint
   needs to be prepared to receive data on both the new and old DTLS
   associations as long as both are alive.

NEW TEXT:

4.  SDP Offerer/Answerer Procedures

   An endpoint (i.e., both the offerer and the answerer) MUST create an
   SDP media description ("m=" line) for each UDPTL-over-DTLS media
   stream and MUST assign a UDP/TLS/UDPTL value (see Table 1) to the
   "proto" field of the "m=" line.

   The offerer and answerer MUST follow the SDP offer/answer procedures
   defined in [RFCXXXX] in order to negotiate the DTLS association
   associated with the UDPTL-over-DTLS media stream. In addition,
   the offerer and answerer MUST use the SDP attributes defined for
   UDPTL over UDP, as defined in [ITU.T38.2010].

OLD TEXT:

5.2.1.  ICE Usage

   When Interactive Connectivity Establishment (ICE) [RFC5245] is being
   used, the ICE connectivity checks are performed before the DTLS
   handshake begins.  Note that if aggressive nomination mode is used,
   multiple candidate pairs may be marked valid before ICE finally
   converges on a single candidate pair.  User Agents (UAs) MUST treat
   all ICE candidate pairs associated with a single component as part of
   the same DTLS association.  Thus, there will be only one DTLS
   handshake even if there are multiple valid candidate pairs.  Note
   that this may mean adjusting the endpoint IP addresses if the
   selected candidate pair shifts, just as if the DTLS packets were an
   ordinary media stream.  In the case of an ICE restart, the DTLS
   handshake procedure is repeated, and a new DTLS association is
   created.  Once the DTLS handshake is completed and the new DTLS
   association has been created, the previous DTLS association is
   deleted.
