The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Proxying Bound UDP in HTTP' (draft-ietf-masque-connect-udp-listen-16.txt) as Proposed Standard
This document is the product of the Multiplexed Application Substrate over QUIC Encryption Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Gorry Fairhurst and Mike Bishop. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-masque-connect-udp-listen/ Technical Summary The mechanism to proxy UDP in HTTP only allows each UDP proxying request to transmit to a specific host and port. This is well suited for UDP client-server protocols such as HTTP/3, but is not sufficient for some UDP peer-to-peer protocols like WebRTC. This document defines an extension to UDP proxying in HTTP that enables such use- cases. Working Group Summary This is a logical extension of allowing outbound UDP which became a side-project during the development of RFC 9298 and was later adopted. Document Quality There are two existing implementations (Google Quiche and quic-go), which are interoperable. The document has had several directorate reviews and incorporated their feedback. Personnel The Document Shepherd for this document is Alejandro Sedeño. The Responsible Area Director is Mike Bishop. IANA Note This document defines new entries in the "HTTP Field Name" <https://www.iana.org/assignments/http-fields> and "HTTP Capsule Types" <https://www.iana.org/assignments/masque> registries. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
