Although the focus is   on VBD, the General-Purpose Media Descriptor Parameter package can be   used to authorize other modes of operation, not relevant to VBD, for   a particular codec.  In addition to defining these new packages, this   document describes the use of the Media Format Parameter package and   Fax package with VBD, redundancy, and FEC.Status of This Memo   This document is not an Internet Standards Track specification; it is   published for informational purposes.

Applicability Statement   This document defines a mechanism that requires media stream   integrity protection.  The document specifies different alternative   mechanisms but does not choose one of them as mandatory-to-implement.   Consequently, the use of this specification is only suitable in   environments that specify and use at least one of these alternative   mechanisms.  Please see the Security Considerations section for   further details.2.  Introduction   The term Voiceband Data (or simply VBD) refers to the use of a   suitable voiceband codec (commonly G.711u or G.711a) for the   transport of data payloads using RTP as defined inRFC 3550   [RFC3550].  This document defines Media Gateway Control Protocol   (MGCP) [RFC3435] packages that enable a Call Agent to authorize and   monitor the transition of a connection to and from VBD with or   without redundancy [RFC2198] and FEC (forward error correction)   [RFC5109].Stone, et al.                 Informational                     [Page 3]

RFC 6498                    MGCP VBD Package               February 2012   There are a number of different VBD procedures.  These procedures   vary in terms of how the transition to and from VBD is coordinated   end to end.  Some coordination techniques are mutually negotiated by   the two gateways using the Session Description Protocol (SDP)   [RFC4566].  These coordination techniques include   o  ITU-T Recommendation V.150.1 State Signaling Event (SSE) [V1501]   o  ITU-T Recommendation V.152 Payload Type Switching [V152]   Other coordination techniques are not negotiated.  For example, the   detection of fax, modem, and text tones in the direction from the IP   to the General Switched Telephone Network (GSTN) may result in a   switch to VBD or a change (e.g., disable echo cancellation) to the   gateway controlled VBD procedure already in place.  The IP-side   detected tone serves as both a VBD stimulus and a coordination   technique.RFC 4733 [RFC4733] andRFC 4734 [RFC4734] can be used to convey fax   and modem events and tones.  As with IP-side tone detection, the   telephone event may serve as both a VBD stimulus and a coordination   technique.  Note that while the use ofRFC 4733 andRFC 4734 to   convey fax and modem events and tones is negotiated, the use ofRFC 4733 andRFC 4734 as a gateway VBD coordination technique (at   present) is not.   The Voiceband Data (VBD) package is defined to support all VBD   procedures.  This document does not address the relative merits of   different procedures nor does it advocate one procedure over another.   We will use the term VBD to refer to Voiceband Data in general.  In   referring to VBD in the context of the package, we will use the term   VBD package.  We use the term "audio" (with double quotes) to refer   to the IANA media type.  We use the term audio (without double   quotes) to refer to the use of the "audio" media type for (most   commonly) voice.   A package is defined for the General-Purpose Media Descriptor   Parameter [V152].  In the context of VBD, the General-Purpose Media   Descriptor Parameter (GPMD) package is used to authorize the   negotiation of a particular codec for use with VBD.  The General-   Purpose Media Descriptor Parameter is "general" in nature and may be   used in applications other than VBD.   The Media Format Parameter (FM) package [RFC3660] describes the use   of the standard audio MIME subtype "RED" in conjunction with the   "fmtp" LocalConnectionOption in order to authorize the negotiation of   redundancy [RFC2198], to identify the levels of redundancy and theStone, et al.

This document   will further explore the use of the FM package with VBD and   redundancy.   The VBD package is intended to complement the MGCP Fax (FXR) package   [RFC5347].  This document will explore the use of the FXR package   with VBD.   The VBD package definition is provided inSection 4.  The GPMD   package definition is provided in Section 5.  InSection 6, we   discuss the use of the FM package with VBD and redundancy.  InSection 7, we discuss the use of the FM package with VBD and FEC.  InSection 8, we discuss the use of the FXR package with VBD.  InSection 9, we provide two call flow examples showing how to use the   VBD and GPMD packages.  Security considerations are found inSection 10, followed by the IANA considerations (Section 11) and   references.3.  Terminology   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this   document are to be interpreted as described inRFC 2119 [RFC2119].4.  Voiceband Data Package Definition   This package is defined for Voiceband Data (VBD).  The package   defines new events as detailed below.      Package Name:        VBD      Package Version:     04.1.  Events and Signals   The following events are defined in support of the above:    -------------------------------------------------------------------   | Symbol |   Definition                    |  R  |  S  |  Duration  |   |--------|---------------------------------|-----|-----|------------|   | gwvbd  | Gateway Controlled VBD          |  x  |     |            |   | nopvbd | No Negotiated Procedure for VBD |  x  |     |            |    -------------------------------------------------------------------   This is standard MGCP package format as defined inSection 6.6 of   RFC 3435 [RFC3435].  The definitions of the individual events are   provided in the following subsections.Stone, et al.                 Informational                     [Page 5]

RFC 6498                    MGCP VBD Package               February 20124.1.1.  Gateway Controlled Voiceband Data   The gwvbd procedure can be used by the gateway to control and decide   how to handle VBD calls without Call Agent involvement.  The "Gateway   Controlled Voiceband Data" (or simply "gwvbd") event occurs when a   gwvbd procedure has been negotiated and VBD stimulus is detected.   The "gwvbd" event may occur when the gwvbd procedure is updated   (e.g., upon detecting new stimulus) and when the procedure fails.   The "gwvbd" event occurs when the gwvbd procedure ends.  The gwvbd   procedure MUST be negotiated with the other side by passing and   recognizing relevant parameters via the LocalConnectionDescriptor and   RemoteConnectionDescriptor.   The following recommendations from MGCP [RFC3435] apply.   In this section, we provide a formal description of the protocol   syntax, using ABNF as defined in "Augmented BNF for Syntax   Specifications: ABNF" [RFC5234].  The syntax makes use of the core   rules defined inAppendix B.1 of [RFC5234], which are not included   here.  Furthermore, the syntax follows the case-sensitivity rules of   [RFC5234], i.e., MGCP is case-insensitive (but SDP is not).  It   should be noted that ABNF does not provide for implicit specification   of linear white space, and MGCP messages MUST thus follow the   explicit linear white space rules provided in the grammar below.   However, in line with general robustness principles, implementers are   strongly encouraged to tolerate additional linear white space in   messages received.   The RequestedEvent parameter is encoded as      GwVbdReqEvent = "gwvbd"   The ObservedEvent parameter is encoded as      GwVbdObsEvent = GwVbdObsEventStart / GwVbdObsEventUpdate /                      GwVbdObsEventStop / GwVbdObsEventFailure      GwVbdObsEventStart   = "gwvbd(start" Rc [Codec] [Coord] [Dir] ")"      GwVbdObsEventUpdate  = "gwvbd(update" Rc [Codec] [Dir] ")"      GwVbdObsEventStop    = "gwvbd(stop" [Rc] [Codec] ")"      GwVbdObsEventFailure = "gwvbd(failure" [Rc] [Codec] ")"Stone, et al.

The "rc",   "codec", "coord", and "dir" parameters, if present, MUST appear in   the relative order shown.   The "start", "update", "stop", and "failure" ObservedEvent parameters   are defined as follows:   1) VBD Start (start)      The gwvbd procedure was initiated.  The Call Agent SHOULD refrain      from issuing media handling instructions to the gateway until      either a "gwvbd(stop)" or "gwvbd(failure)" event is generated.      One and only one "gwvbd(stop)" or "gwvbd(failure)" event is      generated corresponding to each "gwvbd(start)" event.   2) VBD Update (update)      The gwvbd procedure was updated.  The "gwvbd(update)" event MUST      only be generated after a "gwvbd(start)" event and before a      "gwvbd(stop)" or "gwvbd(failure)" event.   3) VBD Stop (stop)      The gwvbd procedure ended, and the gateway did not detect any      errors.  Note that this does not necessarily imply a successful      fax, modem, or text transmission.  It merely indicates that the      gwvbd procedure has ended and the procedure itself did not      encounter any errors.  The "stop" parameter may correspond to a      change from VBD to a non-VBD "audio" codec or from VBD to another      media type such as "image" or "text".  This change may be under      Call Agent or gateway control.  For example, the gateway may      coordinate the switch from VBD to "image/t38" through the exchange      of SSEs [T38] [V152].  For an example involving Call Agent      control, refer to the "MC" Reason Code.  In both examples, the      gwvbd procedure ends with the media change.Stone, et al.

RFC 6498                    MGCP VBD Package               February 2012   4) VBD Failure (failure)      The gwvbd procedure ended abnormally.  Some kind of problem was      encountered in the gwvbd procedure, and the procedure ended.   When the "gwvbd" event is reported, exactly one of the "start",   "update", "stop", or "failure" parameters MUST be present and MUST be   the first parameter supplied.   The "rc", "codec", "coord", and "dir" ObservedEvent parameters are   defined as follows:   1) Reason Code (rc=<ReasonCode>)      With the "start" and "update" parameters, the reason for      triggering the switch/change to VBD.  With the "stop" and      "failure" parameters, the reason for triggering the switch from      VBD.  The Reason Codes in the following table, which are based on      the ITU-T Fax/Textphone/Modem Tones Detection package [H2482],      ITU-T V.150.1 Amendment 1 [V1501A1], and ITU-T V.152 [V152], may      be used with the "start" and "update" parameters:Stone, et al.

In the case of interspersed text      and speech, the Call Agent SHOULD remove the notification request      for "vbd/gwvbd" upon receiving the "vbd/gwvbd(start)" event in      order to avoid large numbers of notifications.      For example,         vbd/gwvbd(start, rc=Baudot)Stone, et al.                 Informational                     [Page 9]

RFC 6498                    MGCP VBD Package               February 2012      With a ReasonCode of "PTSW", the Call Agent cannot differentiate      text from fax/modem.  In this case, the Call Agent SHOULD adopt a      policy that guards against large numbers of notifications.  We      consider several such policies.      The Call Agent MAY remove the notification request for "vbd/gwvbd"      upon receiving the "vbd/gwvbd(start, rc=PTSW)" event.  With this      policy, "update", "stop", and "failure" notifications will not be      generated with text AND fax/modem.      The Call Agent MAY wait for a subsequent "vbd/gwvbd(update)" event      that differentiates text from fax/modem.  If the ReasonCode      indicates interspersed text and speech, the Call Agent SHOULD      remove the notification request for "vbd/gwvbd".  For example,         vbd/gwvbd(update, rc=Edt)      The Call Agent MAY remove the notification request for "vbd/gwvbd"      upon receiving a "vbd/gwvbd(stop)" event without having      differentiated between text and fax/modem.      The Call Agent MAY remove the notification request for "vbd/gwvbd"      after having received a number of "vbd/gwvbd(start)" events      without having differentiated between text and fax/modem.  The      specific number of events after which the notification request is      removed is considered an implementation detail outside the scope      of this specification.      Reason Codes applicable with the "stop" parameter are listed      below:             ------------------------------------------------------            | ReasonCode | Description                             |            |------------|-----------------------------------------|            | SIL        | Bidirectional silence                   |            | Voice      | Voice signals                           |            | PTSW       | Payload type switch as defined in V.152 |            | MC         | Media change                            |             ------------------------------------------------------      The "MC" Reason Code indicates that the media type has changed      from "audio" (to "image", "text", ...) or the "audio" media format      has changed from a VBD codec (for a reason other than "PTSW").      For example, the gwvbd procedure may be initiated upon detecting      called terminal identification (CED).  Subsequently, the Call      Agent controlled T.38 procedure of the MGCP Fax (FXR) package      [RFC5347] may be initiated upon detecting V.21 flags.  Upon      receipt of a "t38(start)" event, the Call Agent will instruct theStone, et al.                 Informational                    [Page 10]

This stops the gwvbd procedure.  There is no specific      interdependency between the VBD package and the FXR package (or      any other package).  The gwvbd procedure is stopped as a      consequence of the media change, not as a direct consequence of      the T.38 procedure being initiated.  Note that in this situation      the "t38(start)" event will be sent before the "gwvbd(stop)"      event.  The Call Agent MAY choose to infer that the gwvbd      procedure has ended upon receiving the "t38(start)" event and      disable the notification of the "gwvbd" event.  Refer to the      example call flow inSection 9.2.      Reason Codes applicable with the "failure" parameter:             ----------------------------------------------------            | ReasonCode | Description                           |            |------------|---------------------------------------|            | TO         | Indicates that a timeout has occurred |             ----------------------------------------------------      The list of Reason Codes may be extended to include values with      meaning mutually understood between the gateway and the Call      Agent.  Obviously, the use of extended values MUST be a      provisionable option on the gateway in order to ensure      interoperability with the Call Agent.   2) Codec String (codec=<CodecString>)      With the "start" and "update" parameters, the codec parameter      describes the MIME type associated with the switch/change to VBD      (e.g., "audio/RED", "audio/PCMU", "audio/PCMA", "audio/G726-32",      "audio/clearmode", ...).  With the "stop" and "failure"      parameters, the codec parameter describes the MIME type associated      with the switch from VBD (e.g., "audio/G729", "image/t38", "text/      t140", "audio/v150mr", ...).  These strings should be full MIME      types as listed inhttp://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types.Stone, et al.                 Informational                    [Page 11]

The coordination techniques are      summarized in the following table:           ------------------------------------------------------          | CoordinationTechnique | Description                  |          |-----------------------|------------------------------|          | v152ptsw              | V.152 Payload Type Switching |          | v150fw                | V.150.1 SSE                  |           ------------------------------------------------------      With the "v152ptsw" coordination technique, payload type switching      [V152] is used to coordinate the transition to and from VBD.      With the "v150fw" coordination technique, state signaling events      [V1501] are used to coordinate the transition to and from VBD.      The list of coordination techniques may be extended to include      values with meaning mutually understood between the gateway and      the Call Agent.  Obviously, the use of extended values MUST be a      provisionable option on the gateway in order to ensure      interoperability with the Call Agent.   4) Direction of Stimulus (dir=<Direction>)      With the "start" and "update" parameters, the "dir" parameter      describes the direction of the stimulus that resulted in the      switch/change to VBD.            ---------------------------------------------------           | Direction | Description                            |           |-----------|------------------------------------    |           | GstnToIp  | Stimulus detected in the direction     |           |           | from the GSTN to IP network,           |           |           | including fax, modem, and text tones.  |           | IpToGstn  | Stimulus detected in the direction     |           |           | from the IP to GSTN network,           |           |           | including fax, modem, and text tones   |           |           | (e.g., IP-side tone detection);        |           |           | RTP packet with VBD payload type       |           |           | (e.g., V.152 or V.150.1).              |            ----------------------------------------------------Stone, et al.

RFC 6498                    MGCP VBD Package               February 2012   Call Agents and gateways MUST implement the "start" and "stop"   parameters and MAY implement the "update" and "failure" parameters.   Call Agents and gateways MAY implement the "coord", "codec", and   "dir" parameters.  Call Agents MAY, and gateways MUST, implement the   "rc" parameter in conjunction with the "start" and "update"   parameters.  Call Agents and gateways MAY implement the "rc"   parameter in conjunction with the "stop" and "failure" parameters.  A   Call Agent MUST ignore all unknown ObservedEvent parameters,   including parameters that are defined as part of this specification   and not implemented.4.1.1.1.  Gateway Controlled Voiceband Data Examples   The following examples illustrate the encoding of the "gwvbd(start)"   event:           O: vbd/gwvbd(start, rc=ANS)           O: vbd/gwvbd(start, rc=ANS, codec=audio/PCMU, coord=v152ptsw)           O: vbd/gwvbd(start, rc=PTSW, codec=audio/RED)   The following example illustrates the encoding of the "gwvbd(update)"   event:           O: vbd/gwvbd(update, rc=/ANSam, dir=IpToGstn)   The following examples illustrate the encoding of the "gwvbd(stop)"   event:           O: vbd/gwvbd(stop)           O: vbd/gwvbd(stop, rc=SIL, codec=audio/G729)           O: vbd/gwvbd(stop, rc=MC, codec=image/t38)   The following examples illustrate the encoding of the   "gwvbd(failure)" event:           O: vbd/gwvbd(failure, codec=audio/G729)           O: vbd/gwvbd(failure, rc=TO, codec=audio/G729)4.1.2.  No Negotiated Procedure for Voiceband Data   The "No Negotiated Procedure for Voiceband Data" (or simply "nopvbd")   event occurs when a VBD procedure has not been negotiated and VBD   stimulus is detected.  The "nopvbd" event may occur when the   procedure is updated (e.g., upon detecting new stimulus), when the   procedure ends, and when the procedure fails.  Even though a   procedure was not negotiated, a VBD handling procedure MAY still be   in place locally on the endpoint, as described further below.Stone, et al.                 Informational                    [Page 13]

RFC 6498                    MGCP VBD Package               February 2012   The nopvbd procedure MAY involve VBD handling including, but not   limited to, adjusting gain and jitter, disabling voice activity   detection, and DC offset filters.  The nopvbd procedure MAY involve   switching to another codec.  The Call Agent MAY have to issue further   commands in response to the "nopvbd" event in order to ensure a   successful VBD call.   As with the "gwvbd" event, the same recommendations from MGCP   [RFC3435] regarding ABNF, general robustness principles, and white   space apply.      The RequestedEvent parameter is encoded as        NopVbdReqEvent = "nopvbd"      The ObservedEvent parameter is encoded as        NopVbdObsEvent = NopVbdObsEventStart / NopVbdObsEventUpdate /                         NopVbdObsEventStop / NopVbdObsEventFailure        NopVbdObsEventStart   = "nopvbd(start" Rc [Codec] [Dir] ")"        NopVbdObsEventUpdate  = "nopvbd(update" Rc [Codec] [Dir] ")"        NopVbdObsEventStop    = "nopvbd(stop" [Rc] [Codec] ")"        NopVbdObsEventFailure = "nopvbd(failure" [Rc] [Codec] ")"   The following ABNF notation is common with the "gwvbd" ObservedEvent   parameter:     Codec = "," *WSP "codec=" CodecString     CodecString = (ALPHA / DIGIT) *(ALPHA / DIGIT / "-" / "_" /                    "." / "/")     Rc = "," *WSP "rc=" ReasonCode     ReasonCode = 1*(ALPHA / DIGIT / "-" / "_" / "." / "/")                  ; Refer to the values listed in the tables above.     Dir = "," *WSP "dir=" Direction     Direction = "GstnToIp" / "IpToGstn"   ABNF does not provide for position-independent parameters.  The "rc",   "codec", and "dir" parameters, if present, MUST appear in the   relative order shown.Stone, et al.                 Informational                    [Page 14]

RFC 6498                    MGCP VBD Package               February 2012   The "start", "update", "stop", and "failure" ObservedEvent parameters   are defined as follows:   1) VBD Start(start)      The nopvbd procedure was initiated.  The Call Agent may have to      issue further commands in order to ensure a successful VBD call      (e.g., switch to another codec).  At most one "nopvbd(stop)" or      "nopvbd(failure)" event MAY be generated corresponding to each      "nopvbd(start)" event.  The Call Agent MAY need to infer that the      nopvbd procedure has ended.   2) VBD Update (update)      The nopvbd procedure was updated.  The "nopvbd(update)" event MUST      only be generated after a "nopvbd(start)" event and before a      "nopvbd(stop)" or "nopvbd(failure)" event.   3) VBD Stop (stop)      The nopvbd procedure ended, and the gateway did not detect any      errors.  Note that this does not necessarily imply a successful      fax, modem, or text transmission.  It merely indicates that the      nopvbd procedure has ended and the procedure itself did not      encounter any errors.  Refer to the definition of the "stop"      parameter from the "gwvbd" event inSection 4.1.1 for additional      information.   4) VBD Failure (failure)      The nopvbd procedure ended abnormally.  Some kind of problem was      encountered in the nopvbd procedure, and the procedure ended.   Call Agents and gateways MUST implement the "start" parameter and MAY   implement the "update", "stop", and "failure" parameters.  Call   Agents MAY, and gateways MUST, implement the "rc" parameter in   conjunction with the "start" and "update" parameters.  Call Agents   and gateways MAY implement the "rc" parameter in conjunction with the   "stop" and "failure" parameters.  A Call Agent MUST ignore all   unknown ObservedEvent parameters including parameters that are   defined as part of this specification and not implemented.   The definitions of the "rc", "codec", and "dir" ObservedEvent   parameters are taken from the "gwvbd" event.   As with the "gwvbd" event, the same recommendations regarding   interspersed text and speech apply.Stone, et al.                 Informational                    [Page 15]

General-Purpose Media Descriptor Parameter Package Definition   This package is defined for the General-Purpose Media Descriptor   Parameter [V152].  The package defines a new LocalConnectionOption as   detailed below.      Package Name:        GPMD      Package Version:     05.1.  LocalConnectionOptions   The following new LocalConnectionOptions field is defined in support   of the above:       ------------------------------------------------------      | Symbol |   Definition                                |      |--------|---------------------------------------------|      | gpmd   | General-Purpose Media Descriptor Parameter  |       ------------------------------------------------------   The definition of the LocalConnectionOption is provided in the   following subsection.Stone, et al.                 Informational                    [Page 16]

RFC 6498                    MGCP VBD Package               February 20125.1.1.  General-Purpose Media Descriptor Parameter   The General-Purpose Media Descriptor Parameter LocalConnectionOption   is similar to the "gpmd" SDP [RFC4566] attribute defined in ITU-T   Recommendation V.152 [V152] and is applicable to all of the same   media formats that the corresponding SDP "gpmd" attribute could be   used with.   The General-Purpose Media Descriptor Parameter is encoded as the   keyword "gpmd" or "o-gpmd", followed by a colon and a quoted string   beginning with the media format name (MIME subtype only) followed by   a space, followed by the media format parameters associated with that   media format:         gpmd/gpmd:"<format> <parameter list>"   For simplicity, we will use the terms "codec" and "media format"   interchangeably in the following.  Multiple media formats may be   indicated by either repeating the "gpmd" LocalConnectionOption   multiple times, such as         L: a:codec1;codec2, gpmd/gpmd:"codec1 parameterX",                             gpmd/gpmd:"codec2 parameterY"   or alternatively by having a single "gpmd" keyword followed by a   colon, and a semicolon-separated list of quoted strings for each   General-Purpose Media Descriptor Parameter, as in         L: a:codec1;codec2, gpmd/gpmd:"codec1 parameterX";                                       "codec2 parameterY"   The two formats may be mixed:         L: a:codec1;codec2;codec3, gpmd/gpmd:"codec1 parameterX",                                    gpmd/gpmd:"codec2 parameterY";                                              "codec3 parameterZ"   The carriage returns above are included for formatting reasons only   and are not permissible in a real implementation.  This holds true   for all of the examples in this document.   If it is possible for the same codec to be requested with and without   the "gpmd" parameter, the following could result:         L: a:codec1;codec1, gpmd/gpmd:"codec1 parameterX"Stone, et al.                 Informational                    [Page 17]

RFC 6498                    MGCP VBD Package               February 2012   However, it would not be clear whether the "gpmd" parameter was to be   applied to the first or the second occurrence of the codec.  The   problem is that codec ordering is important (i.e., codecs are listed   in preferred order), and the above syntax does not provide a way to   indicate whether "parameterX" is preferred (i.e., associated with the   first "codec1") or not (i.e., associated with the second "codec1").   In order to resolve this dilemma, the codec in the "gpmd" media   format is followed by a colon and an <order>, where <order> is a   number from one to N for occurrences of the same codec in the codec   list.  For example,         L:a:codec1;codec1, gpmd/gpmd:"codec1:2 parameterX"   indicates that "parameterX" is associated with the second instance of   "codec1" in the "a:codec1;codec1" list.  If an invalid instance   number is supplied (e.g., instance 3 where there are only two   instances), then error code 524 -- inconsistency in local connection   options -- will be returned.  In the absence of an <order>, the first   instance is assumed.   Prepending "gpmd" with the string "o-" (i.e., "o-gpmd") indicates   that the parameter is optional.  In that case, the gateway may decide   not to use the "gpmd" parameter specified, or only use it in part.   If the "gpmd" LocalConnectionOption parameter is not optional (i.e.,   does not have "o-" in front of it), and the LocalConnectionOption   parameter value is either not recognized or not supported, then the   associated codec is considered "not supported".   When auditing capabilities, the "gpmd" LocalConnectionOption   parameter MUST be returned with a semicolon-separated list of   supported formats and/or multiple independent "gpmd" parameters,   as in         A: a:codec1;codec2, gpmd/gpmd:"codec1 parameterX";                                       "codec2 parameterY"       or         A: a:codec1;codec1, gpmd/gpmd:"codec1 parameterX"Stone, et al.

RFC 6498                    MGCP VBD Package               February 2012   One example uses the General-Purpose Media Descriptor Parameter   LocalConnectionOption in conjunction with gateway controlled   Voiceband Data (or simply VBD) using payload type switching [V152].   In the context of VBD, the <format> must be an RTP/AVP payload type.   The <parameter list> is a semicolon-separated list of   "parameter=value" pairs:     L: a:codec1, gpmd/gpmd:"codec1 parameterX=ValueA;parameterY=ValueB"   In the example below, G.729 is an audio codec and G.711u is a VBD   codec:         L: a:G729;PCMU, gpmd/gpmd:"PCMU vbd=yes"   The corresponding media description in the SDP as part of the   connection request acknowledgment might look like         m=audio 12345 RTP/AVP 18 96         a=rtpmap:96 PCMU/8000         a=gpmd:96 vbd=yes   If a request is made to audit the capabilities of an endpoint, and   the endpoint supports G.711u as both an audio and VBD codec, then the   "gpmd" LocalConnectionOption parameter might look like         A: a:PCMU, p:10-40, e:on, s:on,            m:sendonly;recvonly;sendrecv;inactive         A: a:PCMU, p:10-40, e:on, s:off,            m:sendonly;recvonly;sendrecv;inactive,            gpmd/gpmd:"PCMU vbd=yes"   Given that some parameters, e.g., silence suppression, are only   compatible with G.711u as an audio codec, then the gateway MUST   return different capability sets corresponding to audio and VBD.   If we combine V.152 and redundancy [RFC2198], an example   LocalConnectionOption might look like the example below.  In this   example, G.729 is an audio codec and G.711u is a VBD codec with a   redundancy level of one:     L: a:G729;RED;PCMU, gpmd/gpmd:"PCMU vbd=yes", fmtp:"RED PCMU/PCMU"Stone, et al.

RFC 6498                    MGCP VBD Package               February 2012   The corresponding media description in the SDP as part of the   connection request acknowledgment might look like         m=audio 12345 RTP/AVP 18 96 97         a=rtpmap:96 RED/8000         a=fmtp:96 97/97         a=rtpmap:97 PCMU/8000         a=gpmd:97 vbd=yes   Refer toSection 6 for more examples involving V.152 and redundancy.6.  Use of Media Format Parameter Package with VBD and Redundancy   The MGCP Media Format Parameter (FM) package [RFC3660] in conjunction   with the standard audio MIME subtype "RED" may be used by the Call   Agent to authorize the negotiation of redundancy [RFC2198], to   identify the levels of redundancy and the media format associated   with each redundancy level.  An example of this was demonstrated inSection 5.   The FM package states that the "fmtp" LocalConnectionOption MUST be   returned when auditing capabilities.  Applying this to VBD and   redundancy might result in         A: a:PCMU, p:10-40, e:on, s:on,            m:sendonly;recvonly;sendrecv;inactive         A: a:RED;PCMU, p:10-40, e:on, s:off,            m:sendonly;recvonly;sendrecv;inactive,            gpmd/gpmd:"PCMU vbd=yes",            fmtp:"RED PCMU/PCMU"      The FM package defines "instance syntax", in which        L:a:codec1;codec1, fmtp:"codec1:2 formatX"   indicates that "formatX" is associated with the second instance of   "codec1" in the "a:codec1;codec1" list.  The examples in the FM   package are limited to the use of the instance syntax in conjunction   with the media format.  We propose the use of the instance syntax in   conjunction with the media format parameters        L:a:codec1;codec2;codec3;codec2, fmtp:"codec3 codec2:2/codec2:2"Stone, et al.

RFC 6498                    MGCP VBD Package               February 2012   Let's build on the example ofSection 5.  In the example below, G.729   is an audio codec, and G.711u is both an audio codec and a VBD codec   with a redundancy level of one:        L: a:G729;PCMU;RED;PCMU, gpmd/gpmd:"PCMU:2 vbd=yes",                                 fmtp:"RED PCMU:2/PCMU:2"   The corresponding media description in the SDP as part of the   connection request acknowledgment might look like        m=audio 12345 RTP/AVP 18 0 96 97        a=rtpmap:96 RED/8000        a=fmtp:96 97/97        a=rtpmap:97 PCMU/8000        a=gpmd:97 vbd=yes   Note that the relative preference of the LocalConnectionOption   encoding methods is preserved in the "audio" media formats (i.e.,   payload types) as part of the media description.  In this example,   this reflects a preference for V.152 with redundancy versus without.   No preference is inferred from the relative order of the different   LocalConnectionOptions, namely "a", "gpmd/gpmd", and "fmtp".   A Call Agent can authorize the negotiation of audio codecs and VBD   codecs involving different levels of redundancy.  In the example   below, G.711u is a VBD codec with a redundancy level of two   (preferred) or one:        L: a:G729;RED;RED;PCMU, fmtp:"RED PCMU/PCMU/PCMU",                                fmtp:"RED:2 PCMU/PCMU",                                gpmd/gpmd:"PCMU vbd=yes"   The corresponding media description in the SDP as part of the   connection request acknowledgment might look like        m=audio 12345 RTP/AVP 18 96 97 98        a=rtpmap:96 RED/8000        a=fmtp:96 98/98/98        a=rtpmap:97 RED/8000        a=fmtp:97 98/98        a=rtpmap:98 PCMU/8000        a=gpmd:98 vbd=yesStone, et al.

RFC 6498                    MGCP VBD Package               February 2012   Redundancy can be applied to both audio codecs and VBD codecs.  In   the example below, G.729 is an audio codec with a redundancy level of   two and G.711u is a VBD codec with a redundancy level of one:        L: a:RED;G729;RED;PCMU, fmtp:"RED G729/G729/G729",                                fmtp:"RED:2 PCMU/PCMU",                                gpmd/gpmd:"PCMU vbd=yes"   The corresponding media description in the SDP as part of the   connection request acknowledgment might look like        m=audio 12345 RTP/AVP 96 18 97 98        a=rtpmap:96 RED/8000        a=fmtp:96 18/18/18        a=rtpmap:97 RED/8000        a=fmtp:97 98/98        a=rtpmap:98 PCMU/8000        a=gpmd:98 vbd=yes7.  Use of Media Format Parameter Package with VBD and FEC   A Call Agent may authorize the negotiation of forward error   correction (FEC) [RFC5109] with the standard audio MIME subtype   "parityfec":        L: a:PCMU;parityfec   By default, we assume that FEC packets are to be sent as a separate   stream.  The corresponding media description in the SDP as part of   the connection request acknowledgment might look like         v=0         c=IN IP4 192.0.2.0         m=audio 49170 RTP/AVP 0 96         a=rtpmap:96 parityfec/8000         a=fmtp:96 49172 IN IP4 192.0.2.0   If FEC is to be sent as a secondary codec in the redundant codec   payload format [RFC2198], we again leverage the MGCP Media Format   Parameter (FM) package [RFC3660] in conjunction with the standard   audio MIME subtype "RED":         L: a:G729;RED;PCMU;parityfec, gpmd/gpmd:"PCMU vbd=yes",                                       fmtp:"RED PCMU/parityfec"Stone, et al.

RFC 6498                    MGCP VBD Package               February 2012      The corresponding media description might look like         v=0         c=IN IP4 192.0.2.0         m=audio 49170 RTP/AVP 18 96 97 98         a=rtpmap:96 RED/8000         a=fmtp:96 97/98         a=rtpmap:97 PCMU/8000         a=gpmd:97 vbd=yes         a=rtpmap:98 parityfec/8000   The FM package states that the "fmtp" LocalConnectionOption MUST be   returned when auditing capabilities.  Applying this to VBD,   redundancy and FEC might result in         A: a:PCMU, p:10-40, e:on, s:on,            m:sendonly;recvonly;sendrecv;inactive         A: a:RED;PCMU;parityfec, p:10-40, e:on, s:off,            m:sendonly;recvonly;sendrecv;inactive,            gpmd/gpmd:"PCMU vbd=yes",            fmtp:"RED PCMU/parityfec"8.  Use of Fax Package with VBD   The MGCP Fax (FXR) package [RFC5347] is used by a Call Agent to   authorize fax handling, including Call Agent controlled T.38 and   gateway procedures such as V.152.  With the FXR package, VBD falls   into one of two categories: "special fax handling" as part of the   gateway procedure (resulting in the "gwfax" event), or "no special   fax handling" as part of the gateway and Off procedures (resulting in   the "nopfax" event).  In order for a VBD procedure to fall into the   "special fax handling" category, support for it MUST be negotiated   with the other side by passing and recognizing relevant parameters   via the LocalConnectionDescriptor and RemoteConnectionDescriptor.   A gateway controlled VBD procedure such as V.152 MUST fall into the   category of gateway controlled mode involving "special fax handling".   The resulting "gwfax" event is what informs the Call Agent to refrain   from issuing media handling instructions that could otherwise have a   negative impact on the gateway procedure.Stone, et al.

RFC 6498                    MGCP VBD Package               February 2012   Consider the following example (with shorthand SDP notation):           CRCX 2000 ds/ds1-1/2@gw-t.whatever.net MGCP 1.0           C: 1           M: sendrecv           L: a:G729;PCMU, gpmd/gpmd:"PCMU vbd=yes", fxr/fx:t38;gw           X: 1           R: fxr/t38, fxr/gwfax, fxr/nopfax           v=0           c=IN IP4 192.0.2.1           m=audio 3456 RTP/AVP 18 96           a=rtpmap:96 PCMU/8000           a=gpmd:96 vbd=yes           200 2000 OK           I: 1           v=0           c=IN IP4 192.0.2.2           m=audio 1296 RTP/AVP 18 96           a=rtpmap:96 PCMU/8000           a=gpmd:96 vbd=yes   The RemoteConnectionDescriptor does not indicate support for "image/   t38" as a latent capability [RFC3407].  Consequently, the gateway   will not initiate the T.38 strict fax procedure, "t38", upon   detecting fax stimulus (i.e., CNG, V.21 flags, etc.).  However, the   two endpoints did successfully negotiate a gateway controlled VBD   procedure (e.g., V.152); therefore, a gateway controlled mode   involving "special fax handling" is used.  The "gwfax(start)" event   will be generated upon detecting VBD (including fax) stimulus.   A Call Agent can express a preference for a gateway procedure   involving "special fax handling" over a T.38 procedure (strict or   loose).  For example,         L: fxr/fx:gw;t38   and         L: fxr/fx:gw;t38-loose   However, with the existing syntax of the FXR package, a Call Agent   cannot express a preference for one gateway procedure over another,   each with possibly different preferences relative to a T.38   procedure.Stone, et al.                 Informational                    [Page 24]

RFC 6498                    MGCP VBD Package               February 2012   The FXR package allows a gateway to implement additional fax handling   parameters.  We define just such a parameter by qualifying the   existing "gw" parameter with a list of one or more MIME types:        Gateway  = "gw[" mimeType 0*("|" mimeType) "]"        mimeType = mimeMediaType "/" mimeSubType        ; mimeMediaType and mimeSubType from        ;http://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/   By qualifying the "gw" parameter with a list of MIME types, we narrow   the scope of the gateway procedure.  Consider the following examples   in which the Call Agent authorizes the use of a gateway controlled   fax handling procedure:       - involving "image/t38" (e.g., T.38oUDPTL, T.38oTCP):         L: a:G729, fxr/fx:gw[image/t38]       - involving VBD (e.g., PCMU and V.152):         L: a:G729;PCMU, gpmd/gpmd:"PCMU vbd=yes", fxr/fx:gw[audio/PCMU]       - involving VBD with redundancy (e.g., PCMU, V.152,         andRFC 2198):         L: a:G729;RED;PCMU, fmtp:"RED PCMU/PCMU",            gpmd/gpmd:"PCMU vbd=yes", fxr/fx:gw[audio/RED|audio/PCMU]   Only "special fax handling" involving one of the specified MIME types   is authorized.  Support for "special fax handling" involving one of   the specified MIME types MUST be negotiated, or this "instance" of   the gateway procedure is not initiated.  Consider the following   example in which the Call Agent authorizes the use of a gateway   controlled fax handling procedure:       - involving "audio/t38" (e.g., T.38oRTP):         L: a:G729;t38, fxr/fx:gw[audio/t38]   In this example, the call will fail if the gateway fails to negotiate   "audio/t38".   The "fx" LocalConnectionOption MAY now involve multiple instances of   the "gw" parameter, each with a different list of MIME types.  In   order to authorize "no special fax handling", the Call Agent MUST   include the "gw" parameter without a MIME type, or the "off"Stone, et al.

The instance of the "gw" parameter without a MIME type   should appear as the last instance of the "gw" parameter.  In the   following example,      L: a:G729;PCMU, fxr/fx:gw[image/t38];gw   the Call Agent authorizes the use of, and expresses a preference for,   1.  Gateway controlled image/t38 (e.g., T.38oUDPTL)   2.  Any other gateway procedure with "special fax handling"   3.  No special fax handling (this is a function of the "fxr/fx:gw"       parameter as defined inSection 2.1 of the MGCP Fax (FXR) package       [RFC5347])   If present, the "off" parameter should appear as the last parameter.   In the following example,      L: a:G729;PCMU;t38, fxr/fx:gw[audio/t38];off   the Call Agent authorizes the use of, and expresses a preference for,   1.  Gateway controlled audio/t38 (e.g., T.38oRTP)   2.  No special fax handling   We can express relative preferences for different gateway controlled   fax handling procedures, not only with respect to one another, but   with respect to T.38 procedures.  Consider the following preferential   list of fax handling procedures:   1.  Gateway controlled audio/t38 (e.g., T.38oRTP)   2.  Gateway controlled image/t38 (e.g., T.38oUDPTL)   3.  Call Agent controlled image/t38   4.  Gateway controlled VBD with redundancy (e.g., PCMU, V.152, andRFC 2198)   5.  Gateway controlled VBD without redundancy (e.g., PCMU and V.152)   6.  Any other gateway procedure with "special fax handling"   7.  No special fax handling (this is a function of the "fxr/fx:gw"       parameter as defined inSection 2.1 of the MGCP Fax (FXR) package       [RFC5347])Stone, et al.

RFC 6498                    MGCP VBD Package               February 2012   This would be expressed as     L: a:G729;PCMU;t38;RED;PCMU,        gpmd/gpmd:"PCMU:2 vbd=yes",        fmtp:"RED PCMU:2/PCMU:2",        fxr/fx:gw[audio/t38|image/t38];t38;gw[audio/RED|audio/PCMU:2];gw   Note that the bracketed form of the "gw" parameter is NOT defined as   part of the VBD package.  The bracketed form of the "gw" parameter is   defined as an extension to the FXR package.  Gateways that implement   the bracketed form of the "gw" parameter MUST return this form of the   parameter when capabilities are audited as illustrated by the   following example:        A: fxr/fx:t38;t38-loose;gw[audio/t38|image/t38];gw;off   Support for the bracketed "gw" parameter MAY be spread across   multiple capability lines:        A: a:RED;PCMU, p:10-40, e:on, s:off,           m:sendonly;recvonly;sendrecv;inactive,           gpmd/gpmd:"PCMU vbd=yes",             fmtp:"RED PCMU/PCMU",             fxr/fx:gw[audio/RED|audio/PCMU]        A: a:t38, fxr/fx:gw[audio/t38]        A: a:image/t38, fxr/fx:t38;t38-loose;gw[image/t38]   A Call Agent SHOULD only attempt to leverage the bracketed form of   the "gw" parameter in conjunction with an endpoint that indicates   support for the bracketed syntax as part of its capabilities.   Call Agents and gateways that do not support this form of the "gw"   parameter MUST ignore the bracketed MIME type information consistent   with the MGCP grammar [RFC3435].9.  Call Flow Examples   In this section, we provide two call flow examples.  The first one   illustrates a modem call under gateway control using V.152.  The   second one illustrates a fax call under gateway control using V.152   and Call Agent controlled T.38.9.1.  Modem Call with Gateway Controlled VBD   In this example, both sides support gateway controlled VBD using   V.152 with redundancy.  We assume that the originating and   terminating Call Agents communicate via the Session Initiation   Protocol (SIP) [RFC3261]:Stone, et al.

The terminating gateway is using the Call Agent controlled T.38      strict procedure for fax calls, so the "t38(start)" event occurs,      and a Notify command is sent to the Call Agent:           NTFY 2500 ds/ds1-1/2@gw-t.whatever.net MGCP 1.0           O: fxr/t38(start)           X: 20   Step 16:      The Call Agent acknowledges the Notify command:           200 2500 OK   Step 17:      The Call Agent then instructs the terminating gateway to change to      using the "image/t38" MIME type instead:           MDCX 2002 ds/ds1-1/2@gw-t.whatever.net MGCP 1.0           C: 2           I: 2           L: a:image/t38           R: fxr/t38           X: 21      Note that the Call Agent is no longer requesting notification of      the "gwvbd" event.Stone, et al.

RFC 6498                    MGCP VBD Package               February 2012   Step 18:      The terminating gateway sends back a success response with its      SDP, which also includes the "image/t38" media description:           200 2002 OK           v=0           o=- 25678 753850 IN IP4 192.0.2.2           s=-           c=IN IP4 192.0.2.2           t=0 0           m=image 1296 udptl t38           a=sqn: 0           a=cdsc: 1 audio RTP/AVP 18 96 97           a=cpar: a=rtpmap:96 RED/8000           a=cpar: a=fmtp:96 97/97           a=cpar: a=rtpmap:97 PCMU/8000           a=cpar: a=gpmd:97 vbd=yes           a=cdsc: 4 image udptl t38      The gwvbd procedure ends due to the media type change.  The      "gwvbd(stop)" event notification would normally be sent at this      point; however, the Call Agent is no longer requesting      notification of the "gwvbd" event.  The Call Agent would have      inferred from the "t38(start)" event that the gwvbd procedure      ended.   Step 19:      The terminating Call Agent sends a re-INVITE to the originating      Call Agent with the updated SDP.   Step 20:      The originating Call Agent then sends a ModifyConnection command      to the originating gateway:           MDCX 1003 ds/ds1-1/1@gw-o.whatever.net MGCP 1.0           C: 1           I: 1           R: fxr/t38           X: 2           v=0           o=- 25678 753850 IN IP4 192.0.2.2           s=-           c=IN IP4 192.0.2.2Stone, et al.

Security Considerations   This document defines two new packages, both of which have security   considerations in two areas:   1.  MGCP signaling message security   2.  Media stream security   From an MGCP signaling security point of view, the MGCP VBD and GPMD   packages define extensions to the basic MGCP signaling specification   in accordance with the procedures specified in MGCP [RFC3435], and   hence the MGCP signaling security considerations and recommendations   provided inSection 5 of [RFC3435] (namely the use of IPsec) apply   here as well.  Lack of MGCP signaling integrity protection can in   general be detrimental to any use of MGCP, and the two packages   defined here do not change that.  From a confidentiality point of   view, the VBD package is not believed to convey any vulnerable or   privacy-sensitive information.  The GPMD package is slightly   different inasmuch as it does not define any specific parameters thatStone, et al.                 Informational                    [Page 42]

RFC 6498                    MGCP VBD Package               February 2012   are believed to require confidentiality; however, it is a generic   parameter that can carry any codec parameter information, and hence   it is possible that confidential information is conveyed through this   parameter.  If confidentiality of any such potential information is a   concern, confidentiality protection of the MGCP signaling MUST be   provided as well.  It should be noted thatSection 8 of [RFC5406]   provides considerations for specifying the use of IPsec that are   above and beyond those provided in [RFC3435]; however, given that the   use of IPsec for MGCP applies to all of MGCP, and not just the MGCP   VBD and GPMD packages, we do not specify such additional detail here.   From a media stream security point of view, the MGCP VBD and GPMD   packages again define extensions that rely on the general use of   media streams defined in MGCP [RFC3435], and hence the MGCP media   stream security considerations and recommendations provided inSection 5.1 of [RFC3435] apply here as well.  Lack of media stream   security can in general be detrimental to any media stream   established via MGCP, and the two packages defined here do not change   that.  Confidentiality concerns apply as for any other media stream.   Integrity concerns are further compounded by the GPMD package's use   of payload type switching, state signaling events, and media stream   in-band triggers to drive overall Voiceband Data operation: Integrity   protection with replay protection MUST be used to counter these   threats.   Ideally, there would be a single mandatory-to-implement media stream   security mechanism to provide this integrity protection, and in   theory there is, since MGCP [RFC3435] defines a media stream security   mechanism.  However, the standard MGCP media stream security   mechanism defined in [RFC3435] relies on the encryption key ("k=")   field defined in the original SDP specification [RFC2327], the use of   which is no longer recommended in the current SDP specification   [RFC4566].  In practice, this mechanism has also seen very limited   implementation, and hence there is not much value in relying on it.   Still, the integrity protection requirement remains, and there are   several different ways this can be achieved:   Secure RTP:   For RTP-based media streams, the use of Secure RTP      [RFC3711] with an associated key management mechanism is generally      preferred at the time of this writing; however, such a mechanism      has currently not been defined for MGCP.   PacketCable Security:   The PacketCable Network-Based Call Signaling      Protocol [NCS] defines another media stream security mechanism      that is generally supported by PacketCable-compliant      implementations.  Implementations targeted for those environments      SHOULD implement this security mechanism.Stone, et al.                 Informational                    [Page 43]

RFC 6498                    MGCP VBD Package               February 2012   Lower-Level Security:   In the absence of a common media stream      security mechanism supported by both endpoints, a lower-level      security mechanism, e.g., IPsec, MUST be used.  Note that since      there is no inherent MGCP signaling support for such a lower-level      security mechanism, it MUST be configured by other means.11.  IANA Considerations   The IANA has registered the following MGCP packages:      Package Title                               Name     Version      -------------                               ----     -------      Voiceband Data                              VBD      0      General-Purpose Media Descriptor Parameter  GPMD     012.
