<p>In order to instantaneously resume an XMPP stream the initiating
entity, which is either an XMPP client or server, must posses a
valid ISR key. After it has obtained the ISR key, using the process
described in the previous section, it first determines the host for
resumption, and after that, tries to perform the instant stream

<li>performing STARTTLS (&rfc6120; § 5).</li>
</ol>
<p>After the connection has been secured, the
initiating entity sends an XMPP &lt;stream&gt; open element
followed by a &lt;instant-resume/&gt; Nonza qualified by the
'urn:xmpp:isr:0' namespace which MUST contain the ISR token in the
'tok' attribute and the sequence number of the last by Stream
Management handled stanza in the 'h' attribute.</p>
<p>Next, the initiating entity sends an XMPP &lt;stream&gt; open
element followed by a &lt;instant-resume/&gt; Nonza qualified by
the 'urn:xmpp:isr:0' namespace which MUST contain the previous
stream identifier, the <cite>XEP-0198</cite> "SM-ID", in the
'previd' attribute, the sequence number of the last by Stream
Management handled stanza in the 'h' attribute and the
initiator-hmac as value of at least one &lt;hash/&gt; element as
specified by &xep0300;, which are put as child elements under the
&lt;hmac/&gt; element.</p>
<p>Note that the initiating entity SHOULD pipeline the instant
stream resumption request together with then initial
&lt;stream&gt; open element since it already has determined that
the service supports this feature. Servers MUST announce that they
support ISR by including an &lt;isr/&gt; element qualified by the
'urn:xmpp:isr:0' namespace in their stream features.</p>
<p>The initiator-hmac is defined as follows:</p>
<example caption='Initiating entity requests instant stream resumption'><![CDATA[
<p class='box'>
initiator-hamc = Base64(HMAC(key, "Initiator" ||
tls-server-end-point))
</p>
<p>The function defined in &rfc2104; is used to compute the HMAC
using the hash algorithm specified in the 'algo' attribute of the
&lt;hash/&gt; element as the cryptographic hash function H. The
ISR Key is used as key of the HMAC. And the bytewise concatnation
of the ASCII String "Initiator" and the bytes from
tls-server-end-point, which a TLS Channel Binding defined in
&rfc5929; § 4, is used a the HMAC text. The resulting bytes of the
HMAC function are encoded using Base64 as defined in &rfc4648;
<link url='https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4648#section-4'>§
4</link> and resulting string is used as text value of the
&lt;hash/&gt; element.</p>
<p>Note that the initiating entity SHOULD pipeline the instant
stream resumption request together with then initial
&lt;stream&gt; open element. The initiating entity is able to do
so since it already knows that the service supports ISR because it
announced an ISR key. Servers MUST nevertheless announce that they
support ISR by including an &lt;isr/&gt; element qualified by the
'urn:xmpp:isr:0' namespace in their stream features.</p>
