Pseudo Content Delivery Protocol (CDP) for
Protecting Multiple Source Flows in the
Forward Error Correction (FEC) Framework
Abstract
This document provides a pseudo Content Delivery Protocol (CDP) to
protect multiple source flows with one or more repair flows based on
the Forward Error Correction (FEC) Framework and the Session
Description Protocol (SDP) elements defined for the framework. The
purpose of the document is not to provide a full-fledged protocol but
to show how the defined framework and SDP elements can be combined
together to implement a CDP.

RFC 6801 Pseudo CDP for Multiple Source Flows November 2012
1. Introduction
The Forward Error Correction (FEC) Framework (described in [RFC6363])
and SDP Elements for FEC Framework (described in [RFC6364]) together
define mechanisms sufficient enough to build an actual Content
Delivery Protocol (CDP) with FEC protection. Methods to convey FEC
Framework Configuration Information (described in [RFC6695]), on the
other hand, provide the signaling protocols that may be used as part
of CDP to communicate FEC-Scheme-Specific Information from FEC sender
to a single as well as multiple FEC receivers. This document
