UDP Transport Layer (UDPTL)
over Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS)
Abstract
This document specifies how the UDP Transport Layer (UDPTL) protocol,
the predominant transport protocol for T.38 fax, can be transported
over the Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) protocol, how the
usage of UDPTL over DTLS is indicated in the Session Description
Protocol (SDP), and how UDPTL over DTLS is negotiated in a session
established using the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP).

1. Introduction
While it is possible to transmit highly sensitive documents using
traditional telephony encryption devices, secure fax on the Public
Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) was never widely considered or
prioritized. This was mainly because of the challenges involved with
malevolent physical access to telephony equipment. As real-time
communications transition to IP networks, where information might
