Hi Behcet, This property aims to assess if the proposed algorithms:
1. Preserve the port parity as discussed in Section 4.2.2 of [RFC4787]. and 2. Preserve port contiguity as discussed in Section 4.2.3 of [RFC4787] (i.e., RTCP=RTP+1). An elaboration is also provided in: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-boucadair-softwire-stateless-requirements-00#section-2: REQ#8: Applications requiring even/odd and port contiguity (e.g., RTP/RTCP) SHOULD NOT be broken due to the port set assignment scheme. Traditionally the voice/video applications that use RTP and RTCP would specify only the RTP port that the application would use for streaming the RTP data. The inherent assumption is that the RTCP traffic will be sent on the next higher port. Even though RFC3605 defines a new attribute for explicitly specifying the RTCP attribute for the SDP-based applications, but since it is not a MUST to use this attribute, there are still applications that are not compliant with this RFC. There are also non-SDP based applications that use RTP/RTCP like H323, that make the assumption that RTCP streaming will happen on RTP+1 port.

I have a small question: Compliance with RTP/RTCP applications what does this mean?
