I have reviewed draft-ietf-rtcweb-rtp-usage-23 in preparation for IETF LC. Overall, the document is in really good shape. I have requested the LC, but I have a few substantive questions and suggestions I’d like to discuss while it is ongoing. I’ve also included a list of nits to be resolved together with any LC comments. === Substantive comments and questions === == Section 7: "A future version of this memo will mandate the use of a congestion control algorithm that satisfies these requirements." I can appreciate the intent here, but I think it's unwise to make this kind of guarantee while it's still unclear what RMCAT will produce and when. I would suggest instead something like: "If a standardized congestion control algorithm that satisfies these requirements is developed in the future, this memo may be updated to mandate its use." == Section 11: "Note: this doesn't result in a tracking issue, since the creation of matching CNAMEs depends on existing tracking." I don't quite get this note. Is this trying to say that using the same CNAME in this case does not facilitate cross-service tracking because the CNAME re-use only occurs within a single origin? == Section 12.1.3: OLD This is done according to three methods: NEW Three common methods for classifying IP packets are: = "When flow- based differentiation is available, the WebRTC Endpoint needs to know about it so that it can provide the separation of the RTP packet streams onto different UDP flows to enable a more granular usage of flow based differentiation." I feel like this needs a bit more explanation since I assume it's not terribly commonplace for an endpoint to be able to find out that flow-based differentiation is taking place. Is there some mechanism you can point to that provides this information in some cases, or is this basically saying "wouldn't it be nice if endpoints could find this out somehow"? = I note that there is discussion of how DiffServ and flow-based classification might work for RTP traffic in the WebRTC context, but not DPI. Is there anything to be said, in particular given the SRTP requirement? == Section 13: "The use of the encryption of the header extensions are RECOMMENDED, unless there are known reasons, like RTP middleboxes or third party monitoring that will greatly benefit from the information, and this has been expressed using API or signalling. If further evidence are produced to show that information leakage is significant from audio level indications, then use of encryption needs to be mandated at that time." I'm not sure that "known reasons" are quite enough to justify the SHOULD-level requirement here. It would help if you could elaborate specific legitimate use cases where a middlebox or a specific kind of third party makes use of the audio level information and how that information provides a great benefit. === Nits === == Section 4.1: OLD Support for the reduced minimum RTCP reporting interval described in Section 6.2 of [RFC3550] is REQUIRED. NEW Support for the reduced minimum RTCP reporting interval described in Section 6.2 of [RFC3550]. == Section 5.1.6: s/This can be various reasons for this/There can be various reasons for this/ == Section 7.1: OLD A WebRTC Endpoint receiving media SHOULD signal its bandwidth limitations, these limitations have to be based on known bandwidth limitations, for example the capacity of the edge links. NEW A WebRTC Endpoint receiving media SHOULD signal its bandwidth limitations. These limitations have to be based on known bandwidth limitations, for example the capacity of the edge links. == Section 11: This sentence doesn't parse: "This, as the sending party needs to change the CNAME to the one it uses, which implies that the sender has to use a local system clock as timebase for the synchronisation." s/needs to defined/needs to be defined/ s/enables more efficient/enable more efficient/ == Section 16: draft-ietf-mmusic-sdp-bundle-negotiation should not be listed as an informative reference.
