<section1 topic='Introduction' anchor='intro'>
<p>There exists no widely-adopted standard for initiating and managing peer-to-peer (p2p) interactions (such as voice, video, or file sharing exchanges) from within Jabber/XMPP clients. Although several large service providers and Jabber/XMPP clients have written and implemented their own proprietary XMPP extensions for p2p signalling (usually only for voice), those technologies are not open and do not always take into account requirements to interoperate with the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) or Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) networks based on the IETF's Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) as specified in &rfc3261; and its various extensions.</p>
<p>By contrast, the only existing open protocol has been &xep0111;, which made it possible to initiate and manage p2p sessions, but which did not provide enough of the key signalling semantics to be easily implemented in Jabber/XMPP clients. <note>It is true that TINS made it relatively easy to implement an XMPP-to-SIP gateway; however, in line with the long-time Jabber philosophy of "simple clients, complex servers", it would be better to force complexity onto the server-side gateway and to keep the client as simple as possible.</note></p>
<p>There exists no widely-adopted standard for initiating and managing peer-to-peer (p2p) interactions (such as voice, video, or file sharing exchanges) from within Jabber/XMPP clients. Although several large service providers and Jabber/XMPP clients have written and implemented their own proprietary XMPP extensions for p2p signalling (usually only for voice), those technologies are not open and do not always take into account requirements to interoperate with the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) or emerging SIP-based Internet voice networks. By contrast, the only existing open protocol has been &xep0111;, which made it possible to initiate and manage p2p sessions, but which did not provide enough of the key signalling semantics to be easily implemented in Jabber/XMPP clients. <note>It is true that TINS made it relatively easy to implement an XMPP-to-SIP gateway; however, in line with the long-time Jabber philosophy of "simple clients, complex servers", it would be better to force complexity onto the server-side gateway and to keep the client as simple as possible.</note></p>
<p>The result has been an unfortunate fragmentation within the XMPP community regarding signalling protocols. There are, essentially, two approaches to solving the problem:</p>
<ol>
<li>Recommend that all client developers implement a dual-stack (XMPP + SIP) solution.</li>
<li>Define a full-featured protocol for XMPP signalling.</li>
</ol>
<p>Implementation experience indicates that a dual-stack approach may not be feasible on all the computing platforms for which Jabber clients have been written, or even desirable on platforms where it is feasible. Therefore, it seems reasonable to define an XMPP signalling protocol that can provide the necessary signalling semantics while also making it relatively straightforward to interoperate with existing Internet standards.</p>
<p>As a result of feedback received on <cite>XEP-0111</cite>, the original authors of this document (Joe Hildebrand and Peter Saint-Andre) began to define such a signalling protocol, code-named Jingle. Upon communication with members of the Google Talk team, <note>Google Talk is a messaging and voice chat service and client provided by Google; see &lt;<link url='http://www.google.com/talk/'>http://www.google.com/talk/</link>&gt;.</note> it was discovered that the emerging Jingle approach was conceptually (and even syntactically) quite similar to the signalling protocol used in the Google Talk application. Therefore, in the interest of interoperability and adoption, we decided to harmonize the two approaches. The signalling protocol specified herein is, therefore, substantially equivalent to the existing Google Talk protocol, with several adjustments based on feedback received from implementors as well as for publication within the Jabber Software Foundation's standards process.</p>
<p>The purpose of Jingle is not to supplant or replace SIP. Because dual-stack XMPP+SIP clients are difficult to build, given that they essentially have two centers of program control, <note>For example, one large ISP recently decided to switch to a pure XMPP approach after having implemented and deployed a dual-stack client for several years.</note> we have designed Jingle as a pure XMPP signalling protocol. However, Jingle is intended to interwork with SIP so that the millions of deployed XMPP clients can be added onto the existing open VoIP networks, rather than limiting XMPP users to a separate and distinct VoIP network.</p>

<section1 topic='Requirements' anchor='reqs'>
<p>The protocol defined herein is designed to meet the following requirements:</p>
<ol>
<li>Make it possible to manage a wide variety of peer-to-peer sessions (not limited to voice and video) within XMPP. <note>Possible other content description formats include file sharing, application casting, application sharing, whiteboarding, torrent broadcasting, shared real-time editing, and distributed musical performance, to name but a few.</note>.</li>
<li>Clearly separate the signalling channel (XMPP) from the data channel (e.g., Real-time Transport Protocol as specified in &rfc3550;).</li>
<li>Clearly separate the content description formats (e.g., for voice chat) from the content transport methods (e.g., User Datagram Protocol as specified in &rfc0768;).</li>
<li>Make it possible to manage a wide variety of peer-to-peer sessions (not limited to voice and video) within XMPP. <note>Possible other content description formats include file sharing, application casting, application sharing, whiteboarding, torrent broadcasting, shared real-time editing, and distributed musical performance, to name but a few.</note></li>
<li>Make it possible to add, modify, and remove content types from an existing session.</li>
<li>Make it relatively easy to implement support for the protocol in standard Jabber/XMPP clients.</li>
<li>Where communication with non-XMPP entities is needed, push as much complexity as possible onto server-side gateways between the XMPP network and the non-XMPP network.</li>
</ol>
<p>This document defines the signalling protocol only. Additional documents specify the following:</p>
<ul>
<li><p>Various content description formats (audio, video, etc.) and, where possible, mapping those types to the Session Description Protocol (SDP; see &rfc4566;); examples include &xep0167; and &xep0180;.</p></li>
<li><p>Various content transport methods; examples include &xep0176; and &xep0177;.</p></li>
<li><p>Procedures for mapping the Jingle signalling protocol to existing signalling standards such as the IETF's Session Initiation Protocol (SIP; see &rfc3261;) and the ITU's H.323 protocol (see &h323;); these documents are not yet written</p></li>

<p>Naturally, instead of sending service discovery requests to every contact in a user's roster, it is more efficient to use <cite>Entity Capabilities</cite>, whereby support for Jingle and various Jingle content description formats and content transport methods is determined for a client version in general (rather than on a per-JID basis) and then cached. Refer to <cite>XEP-0115</cite> for details.</p>
<p>If a contact has more than one XMPP resource, it may be that only one of the resources supports Jingle and the desired content description format, in which case the user MUST initiate the Jingle signalling with that resource.</p>

<p>One example of modifying an active session is to <em>add</em> a content type. For example, let us imagine that Juliet gets her hair in order and now wants to add video. She now sends a "content-add" request to Romeo:</p>

<p>At any point after initiation of a Jingle session, either entity MAY send an informational message to the other party, for example to change a content transport method or content description format parameter, inform the other party that a session initiation request is queued, that a device is ringing, or that a scheduled event has occurred or will occur. An information message MUST be an IQ-set containing a &JINGLE; element whose 'action' attribute is set to a value of "session-info", "description-info", or "transport-info"; the &JINGLE; element MUST further contain a payload child element (speciific to the session, content description format, or content transport method) that specifies the information being communicated. If an empty "session-info" message is received for an active session, the receiving entity MUST send an empty IQ result. This way, an empty "session-info" message may be used as a "ping" to determine session vitality. (A future version of this specification will define payloads related to the "session-info" action.)</p>
