This document specifies how to establish secure connection-oriented
media transport sessions over the Transport Layer Security (TLS)
protocol using the Session Description Protocol (SDP). It defines
the SDP protocol identifier, 'TCP/TLS'. It also defines the syntax
and semantics for an SDP 'fingerprint' attribute that identifies the
certificate that will be presented for the TLS session. This
mechanism allows media transport over TLS connections to be
established securely, so long as the integrity of session
descriptions is assured.
This document obsoletes RFC 4572 by clarifying the usage of multiple
fingerprints.
This document is a product of the Multiparty Multimedia Session Control Working
Group of the IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard.
