Abstract:
   draft-ietf-core-coap-tcp-tls defines how to transport CoAP messages
   on reliable transports such as TCP, TLS, or WebSockets.

   All these underlying protocols have ways to set up connection
   properties and manage the connection.  In many cases, these ways
   cannot be used very well for managing CoAP's use of the connection.

   Signaling messages are a way to signal information that is about the
   connection.  They form a third basic kind of messages in CoAP, beyond
   requests and responses.  Message class 7 is used for signaling
   messages.

   Signaling messages are only relevant for the connection they appear
   in.  The present draft assumes reliable, sequence-preserving
   connections.  It is for further study whether signaling messages are
   needed or useful for DTLS connections.

   The present draft, when adopted, would resolve CoRE tickets #400
   (message sizes), #388 (by providing a foundation for a mechanism for
   version negotiation, once that is needed), #390 (connection close
   reason), #391 (server name indication), #394 (ping/pong).
