Abstract
This document gives examples of Session Description Protocol (SDP)
offer answer exchanges. Examples include codec negotiation and
selection, hold and resume, and addition and deletion of media
streams. The examples show multiple media types, bidirectional,
unidirectional, inactive streams and dynamic payload types. Common
Third Party Call Control (3pcc) examples are also given.

Internet-Draft SDP Offer Answer Examples March 2003
1. Overview
This document describes offer answer examples of Session Description
Protocol (SDP) based on RFC 3264 [1]. The SDP in these examples are
defined by RFC 2327 [2]. The offers and answers are assumed to be
transported using a protocol such as Session Initiation Protocol
(SIP) [3].
Examples include codec negotiation and selection, hold and resume,
and addition and deletion of media streams. The examples show
multiple media types, bidirectional, unidirectional, inactive streams
and dynamic payload types. Common Third Party Call Control (3pcc)
[5] examples are also given.
The following sections contain examples in which two parties, Alice
and Bob, exchange SDP offers, answers, and, in some cases, additional
offers and answers.
2. Codec Negotiation and Selection
2.1 Audio and Video 1
This common scenario shows a video and audio session in which
multiple codecs are offered but only one is accepted. As a result of
the exchange shown below, Alice and Bob may send only PCMU audio and
MPV video. Note: Dynamic payload type 97 is used for iLBC codec [6].

2.2 Audio and Video 2
Alice can support PCMU, PCMA, and iLBC codecs, but not more than one
at the same time. Alice offers all three to maximize chances of a
successful exchange and Bob accepts two of them. Audio only session
is established in initial exchange between Alice and Bob using either
PCMU or PCMA codecs (payload type in RTP packet tells which is being
used). Since Alice only supports one audio codec at a time, a second
offer is made with just that one codec to limit the codec choice to
just one.
Note: the version number is incremented in both SDP messages in the
second exchange. Now only the PCMU codec may be used for media
session between Alice and Bob.
Note: The declined video stream still present in the second exchange
of SDP with ports set to zero.

As a result of this exchange, Bob can send with either PCMU, PCMA, or
iLBC for audio and H261 or MPV for video. Alice can send with iLBC
and H261.
Note: change of dynamic payload type from 97 to 99 between the offer
and the answer is OK since it references same codec.

Alice wishes to establish an audio session with Bob using either PCMU
codec or iLBC codec with RFC2833 tones, but not both at the same
time. The offer contains these two media streams. Bob declines the
first one and accepts the second one. If both media streams had been
accepted, Alice would have sent a second declining one of the

2.8 Audio and Video 6
This scenario shows an audio and video offer that is accepted, but
the answerer wants the video sent to a different address than the
audio. This is a common scenario in conferencing where the video and
audio mixing utilizes different servers. In this example, Alice
offers audio and video and Bob accepts.

3.1 Hold and Unhold 1
Alice calls Bob, but Bob answers placing Alice on hold. Bob then
takes Alice off hold in the second offer. Alice changes port number
in the second exchange. The media session between Alice and Bob is
now active after Alice's second answer. Note that a=sendrecv could

stream. Bob accepts both audio streams. Bob then puts Alice's audio
stream on hold but not the tone stream. Alice responds with

4. Addition and Deletion of Media Streams
This section shows addition and deletion of media streams.
4.1 Second Audio Stream Added
The second stream is added by Bob's media server (different
connection address) to receive RFC 2833 telephone-events (DTMF
digits, typically) from Alice. Alice accepts. Even though the 2nd
stream is unidirectional, Alice receives RTCP packets on port 49173
from the media server.

5.2 Hold and Unhold 2
The first offer from Alice contains the connection address 0.0.0.0
and a random port number, which means that Bob can not send media to
Alice (the media stream is "black holed" or "bh"). Bob accepts with
normal SDP. In the second exchange, Alice changes the connection
address, Bob accepts, and a media session is established.

6. Security Considerations
SDP offer and answer messages can contain private information about
addresses and sessions to be established between parties. If this
information needs to be kept private, some security mechanism in the
protocol used to carry the offers and answers must be used. For SIP,
this means using TLS transport and/or S/MIME encryption of the SDP
message body.
