Talk:Real-time Transport Protocol
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
On Wiki-Page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OSI_Model die RTP-Protocol is located on OSI-layer 4 (Transport) --> DoD-Layer 3 (together with UDP, TCP, DCCP, SCTP).
On this Wiki-Page the RTP is located in DoD-Layer 4 (Application Process).
In my opinion the latter is the correct one.
"RTP relies on the underlying protocol(s) to provide demultiplexing of RTP data and RTCP control streams." (RFC3550 67)
Since RTP itself does not supply any kind of multiplexing and it tranports RTCP (Monitoring and control QoS-paramters) it should not be assigned to layer 3.
How do you think about this?
A. Yes, I think you are right, definetely RTP, RTSP and RTCP do not belong to the transport level.
- I have changed the category of these three protocols to category:application layer protocols. What OSI layer does the RSVP protocol have? Mange01 22:45, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] capitals?
shouldn't this page be at real-time transport protocol? --MarSch 10:40, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] No longer a stub
I think you can remove the stub notification
[edit] Usage?
What softwares and services are really suing RTP? I suggest a section called Usage. Mange01 21:45, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
