This document describes the need for QoS and media authorization and 
defines a SIP extension that can be used to integrate QoS admission 
control with call signaling and help guard against denial of service 
attacks. The use of this extension is only applicable in administrative 
domains, or among federations of administrative domains with previously 
agreed-upon policies, where both the SIP proxy authorizing the QoS, and 
the policy control of the underlying network providing the QoS belong to 
that administrative domain or federation of domains.

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
