Hi, Thanks for the review; some responses inline.

I copied the list from draft-ietf-mmusic-rfc4566bis-15, which doesn't mention "image". I agree we should mention it, as should 4566bis. (I've cc'd Ali, for comment). > ii- 3.

In addition to that, providing QoS with DiffServ is still possible when multiple types of media are sent in a single RTP session as explained in draft-ietf-dart-dscp-rtp (which is already referenced by this draft) It's not clear what change you want here. Do you have a suggestion for how to update the text? > - "1. increased delay to establish a complete session, since each of > the transport layer flows needs to be negotiated and established;" > At least negotiation part can happen in parallel. And when multiple streams use the same RTP session, isn't there still a need to negotiate different SSRC values, one per stream? A reference to RFC5576 could be useful as well. Negotiation can only happen in parallel to a certain extent, before the amount of STUN traffic causes congestion. The SSRCs also don't necessarily have to be negotiated in advance for either model. > iii- 5.3. Per-SSRC Media Type Restrictions > This section provides the justification why different SSRC but be used for audio and video streams but not really why a SSRC can't be re-used for streams of different type. It would be good to cover that aspect as well. Sorry, I'm not sure what you're asking here. Can you rephrase? > iv- 4.

Why is it not possible to send RTCP in different rates for different flows? Some RTCP packets could have reports pertaining to a single stream whereas the other ones (when timing for reports for different streams overlaps or is sufficiently close enough) for multiple streams. Aggregate RTCP bandwidth need shouldn't be a constraining factor just because a single transport flow is used AFAICS. If that is not the case, it really could be useful to explain why. The RTCP timing rules in RFC 3550 don't support different reporting intervals for different SSRCs (other than a sender/receiver split), and doing so runs a risk of causing inappropriate RTCP timeouts. We could add a reference to RFC 3550 here, if it helps? > v- 7.

Can you be specific on how BUNDLE should be referenced? Cheers, Colin -- Colin Perkins https://csperkins.org/
