Abstract

The Robust Header Compression (ROHC) protocol provides an efficient,flexible, and future-proof header compression concept. It isdesigned to operate efficiently and robustly over various linktechnologies with different characteristics.

The ROHC framework, along with a set of compression profiles, wasinitially defined in RFC 3095. To improve and simplify the ROHCspecifications, this document explicitly defines the ROHC frameworkand the profile for uncompressed separately. More specifically, thedefinition of the framework does not modify or update the definitionof the framework specified by RFC 3095.

This specification obsoletes RFC 4995. It fixes one interoperabilityissue that was erroneously introduced in RFC 4995, and adds someminor clarifications. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
