RFC 5159 OMA BCAST SDP Attributes March 2008
1. Introduction
The Open Mobile Alliance (OMA) Broadcast (BCAST) group is specifying
service and content protection mechanisms for broadcast services over
wireless networks. As part of that specification, several new SDP
attributes are necessary to allow the broadcast server to signal the
service and content protection parameters to clients.
Section 8.2.4 of RFC 4566 [1] requires that new SDP attributes are
registered through IANA with name, contact information, and
description (and other similar parameters). A standards track
specification is RECOMMENDED if the new attribute(s) will have
widespread use and interoperability considerations.
OMA BCAST specifications are expected to be used by broadcast
wireless systems that are based on 3rd Generation Partnership Project
(3GPP) Multimedia Broadcast/Multicast Service (MBMS), 3GPP2 Broadcast
and Multicast Services (BCMCS), and Digital Video Broadcasting -
Handheld (DVB-H). Although this would typically be considered a
"widespread" use, in this case IETF chose to use a non-standards-
track RFC to register the SDP attributes because OMA maintains change
control of the documents that specify the interpretation of the
values in the attributes.
This document provides descriptions of the SDP attributes used in the
OMA BCAST Service and Content Protection specification [2].
2. Terminology
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 RFC 2119 [3].
3. New SDP Attributes
The following new SDP attributes have been specified:
o a=bcastversion:<major>.<minor>
o a=stkmstream:<id of the stkm stream>
o a=SRTPAuthentication:<id for SRTP authentication algorithm value>
o a=SRTPROCTxRate:<ROC transmission rate>
See Section 5 for details on IANA considerations.
