Title : Congestion safety and Content Indirection

The Session Initiation Protocol allows the use of UDP for transport
of SIP messages. Baseline SIP does not allow congestion control for
messages larger than MTU of a certain link nor does it allow end
points to specify their maximum acceptable message size, regardless
of the underlying transport protocol.
This document combines two, namely congestion safely and Content-
Indirection Mechanism into the one document and presents scenarios
where the 2 could be combined. It also introduces extensions to SIP
that allows end points to specify their maximum acceptable message
size.

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.
