Abstract
This document describes, surveys, and classifies the protocolmechanisms provided by existing IETF protocols, as background fordetermining a common set of transport services. It examines theTransmission Control Protocol (TCP), Multipath TCP, the StreamControl Transmission Protocol (SCTP), the User Datagram Protocol(UDP), UDP-Lite, the Datagram Congestion Control Protocol (DCCP), theInternet Control Message Protocol (ICMP), the Real-Time TransportProtocol (RTP), File Delivery over Unidirectional Transport /Asynchronous Layered Coding (FLUTE/ALC) for Reliable Multicast, NACK-Oriented Reliable Multicast (NORM), Transport Layer Security (TLS),Datagram TLS (DTLS), and the Hypertext Transport Protocol (HTTP),when HTTP is used as a pseudotransport. This survey providesbackground for the definition of transport services within the TAPSworking group.
