Re: [MMUSIC] I-D Action: draft-ietf-mmusic-msrp-usage-data-channel-11.txt

Hi,

If think there is a bigger question here, that MAY have to be clarified ietf-mmusic-data-channel-sdpneg:

To my understanding, the SDP dcsa attribute is used to provide information that is needed to operate the protocol (MSRP in this case) on the data channel - between the data channel endpoints.

Now, if the data channel peer is a GW, and you need to provide some information (path attributes etc in the case of MSRP) for what happens beyond the GW, is the dcsa attribute really intended for that?

So, if the data channel peer is an MSRP GW, using legacy MSRP on the "other side", is the dcsa attribute the correct mechanism to provide the GW with whatever information is are needed on the "other side"?

Regards,

Christer

    [Raju] I agree with that.

    [Raju] Let's please make this clear in the draft.

    [Raju] I agree that such design limitation should only be for RCS (self-imposed), but not for other applications.

    Thanks

    [JM] Draft covers either direct connection to an endpoint or direct connection to a gateway. As middleboxes are out of scope in the connection using data channel, then CEMA is out of scope. This short explanation currently appears as justification for saying that CEMA is out of scope. I can remove the explanation and just state that CEMA is out of scope.

    [JM] Draft supports gateways providing transport level interworking between MSRP endpoints using different transport protocols. CEMA can't be used towards the endpoints using data channel transport, but the GW could use CEMA to interwork with endpoints using other protocols.

    For example, if the GW is implemented on an SBC, it can use CEMA towars the inside network, using a non-dc transport. But not towards endpoints using data channel transport.

    > My understanding is I think section 6 suggests to use CEMA equivalent procedures without CEMA attributes!

    [JM] GW can use CEMA with endpoints using non-dc transports. This can be removed, but I think it would make the GW transport interwork option too restrictive. The B2BUA GW would not be affected.

    [JM] I agree for RCS should be like that. Would mandating this restrict applicability for other applications?
