<title>Jingle ICE-UDP Transport Method</title>
<abstract>This specification defines a Jingle transport method that results in sending media data using raw datagram sockets via the User Datagram Protocol (UDP). This transport method is negotiated via the Interactive Connectivity Establishment (ICE) methodology defined by the IETF and thus provides robust NAT traversal for media traffic.</abstract>

<section1 topic='Introduction' anchor='intro'>
<p>&xep0166; defines a framework for negotiating and managing out-of-band data sessions over XMPP. In order to provide a flexible framework, the base Jingle specification defines neither data transport methods nor application formats, leaving that up to separate specifications.</p>
<p>The current document defines a transport method for establishing and managing data exchanges between XMPP entities over the User Datagram Protocol (see &rfc0768;), using the ICE methodology developed within the IETF and specified in &ice; (hereafter referred to as &icecore;). Use of the <strong>ice-udp</strong> method results in a datagram transport suitable for media applications where some packet loss is tolerable (e.g., audio and video).</p>
<p>Note: &icecore; has been approved for publication as an RFC but has not yet been published as an RFC. While every effort has been made to keep this document synchronized with &icecore;, the interested reader is referred to &icecore; for a detailed description of the ICE methodology.</p>
<p>The process for ICE negotiation is largely the same in Jingle as it is in ICE. There are several differences:</p>
<ul>
<li>Instead of using the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) as the signalling channel, Jingle uses XMPP as the signalling channel.</li>
<li>In Jingle, each candidate transport is typically sent in a separate IQ exchange (rather than sending all candidates at once as in &icecore;). This approach takes advantage of the request-response semantics of the XMPP &IQ; stanza type and enables the parties to send higher-priority candidates earlier in the negotiation, thus resulting in a faster negotiation. However, a Jingle client MAY send multiple candidates at a time in order to ensure interworking with entities that adhere to the SDP offer / answer model described in &rfc3264;.</li>
<li>Syntax from the Session Description Protocol (see &rfc4566;) is mapped to an XML syntax suitable for sending over the XMPP signalling channel.</li>
<li>ICE candidates can be upgraded during a session (e.g., to change an IP address).</li>
<li>Either party can continue to send ICE candidates throughout a session and renegotiate which candidate will be used.</li>
</ul>

<section1 topic='Glossary' anchor='terms'>
<p>The reader is referred to &icecore; for a description of various terms used in the context of ICE. Those terms are not reproduced here.</p>
</section1>
<section1 topic='Requirements' anchor='reqs'>
<p>The Jingle transport method defined herein are designed to meet the following requirements:</p>
<ol>
<li>Make it possible to establish and manage out-of-band connections between two XMPP entities, even if they are behind Network Address Translators (NATs) or firewalls.</li>
<li>Enable use of UDP as the transport protocol itself.</li>
<li>Make it relatively easy to implement support 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>
</section1>
<section1 topic='Jingle Conformance' anchor='conformance'>
<p>In accordance with Section 10 of <cite>XEP-0166</cite>, this document specifies the following information related to the Jingle ice-udp transport method:</p>
<ol>
<li><p>The transport negotiation process is defined in the <link url='#protocol'>Protocol Description</link> section of this document.</p></li>
<li><p>The semantics of the &TRANSPORT; element are defined in the <link url='#protocol-negotiate'>ICE Negotiation</link> section of this document.</p></li>
<li><p>Successful negotiation of the ice-udp method results in use of a datagram transport that is suitable for applications where some packet loss is tolerable, such as audio and video.</p></li>
<li><p>If multiple components are to be communicated over the transport in the context of the Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP; see &rfc3550;), the component numbered "1" shall be associated with RTP and the component numbered "2" shall be associated with the Real Time Control Protocol (RTCP).</p></li>

<section2 topic='Transport Initiation' anchor='protocol-initiate'>
<p>In order for the initiator in a Jingle exchange to start the negotiation, it MUST send a Jingle "session-initiate" stanza as described in <cite>XEP-0166</cite>. A content type MUST include one transport method. If the initiator wishes to negotiate the ice-udp transport method for an application format, it MUST include an empty &TRANSPORT; child element qualified by the 'urn:xmpp:jingle:transports:ice-udp:0' namespace &VNOTE;.</p>

<section2 topic='Candidate Negotiation' anchor='protocol-candidates'>
<p>Once the responder acknowledges receipt of the session initiation request as shown above, both initiator and responder MUST immediately negotiate connectivity over the ICE transport by exchanging XML-formatted candidate transports for the channel. This negotiation proceeds immediately in order to maximize the possibility that media can be exchanged as quickly as possible. <note>Concurrent with negotiation of the ICE candidates, it is possible for the initiator and responder to negotiate which content types the session will include, which transport methods will be tried for each content type, etc. Those negotiation flows are shown in other specifications, such as <cite>XEP-0166</cite>. This document specifies only negotiation of the ICE transport method.</note></p>
<p>Note: In order to expedite session establishment, the initiator MAY send transport candidates immediately after sending the "session-initiate" message and before receiving acknowledgement from the responder (i.e., the initiator MUST consider the session to be live even before receiving acknowledgement). Given in-order delivery as mandated by &xmppcore;, the responder will receive such "transport-info" messages after receiving the "session-initiate" message; if not, it is appropriate for the responder to return &lt;unknown-session/&gt; errors since according to its state machine the session does not exist. If either party receives an &lt;unknown-session/&gt; from the other party, it MUST terminate the negotiation and the session.</p>
<p>Note: See the <link url='#security'>Security Considerations</link> section of this document regarding the exposure of IP addresses on behalf by the responder's client.</p>

</section3>
<section3 topic='Exchange of Candidates' anchor='protocol-candidates-exchange'>
<p>The first step in negotiating connectivity is for each party to immediately begin sending transport candidates to the other party. <note>The fact that both parties send candidates means that Jingle requires each party to be a full implementation of ICE, not a lite implementation as specified in &icecore;.</note> These candidates SHOULD be gathered by following the procedure specified in Section 4.1.1 of &icecore; (typically by communicating with a standalone STUN server in order to discover the client's public IP address and port) and prioritized by following the procedure specified in Section 4.1.2 of &icecore;.</p>
<p>Each candidate or set of candidates shall be sent as &lt;candidate/&gt; children of a &TRANSPORT; element qualified by the 'urn:xmpp:jingle:transports:ice-udp:0' namespace. The &TRANSPORT; element shall be sent via a Jingle action of "transport-info" as shown in the examples below.</p>
<p>Either party MAY include multiple &lt;candidate/&gt; elements in one &TRANSPORT; element. Sending one candidate per transport-info action typically results in a faster negotiation because the candidates most likely to succeed are sent first and it is not necessary to gather all candidates before beginning to send any candidates. Furthermore, because certain candidates can be more "expensive" in terms of bandwidth or processing power, the initiator might not want to advertise their existence unless it is necessary to do so after other candidates have failed. However, sending multiple candidates in a single "transport-info" action can help to ensure interoperability with entities that implement the SDP offer/answer model described in <cite>RFC 3264</cite>. An entity SHOULD send one candidate per "transport-info" action and send multiple such actions, instead of sending multiple candidates in a single "transport-info" action; the only exception is if the other party advertises support for the "urn:ietf:rfc:3264" service discovery feature as described in the <link url='#support-sdp'>SDP Offer / Answer Support</link> section of this document.</p>
<p>If the responder receives and can successfully process a given candidate or set of candidates, it returns an IQ-result (if not, for example because the candidate data is improperly formatted, it returns an IQ-error). Note: The responder is only indicating receipt of the candidate or set of candidates, not telling the initiator that the candidate will be used.</p>
<p>The initiator keeps sending candidates (without stopping to receive an acknowledgement of receipt from the responder for each candidate) until it has exhausted its supply of possible or desirable candidate transports. For each candidate or set of candidates, the responder acknowledges receipt.</p>
<p>At the same time (i.e., immediately after acknowledging receipt of the session-initiate request, not waiting for the initiator to begin or finish sending candidates), the responder also begins sending potential candidates, in order of desirability according to the responder. As above, the initiator acknowledges receipt of the candidates.</p>

<li>Each party sends a STUN Binding Request (see &rfc3489bis;) from each local candidate it generated to each remote candidate it received.</li>
<li>In accordance with &icecore;, the STUN Binding Request MUST include the PRIORITY attribute (computed according to Section 7.1.1.1. of &icecore;).</li>
<li>For the purposes of the Jingle ICE-UDP Transport Method, both parties are full ICE implementations and therefore the controlling role MUST be assumed by the initiator and the controlled role MUST be assumed by the responder.</li>
<li>The STUN Binding Requests generated by the initiator MAY include the USE-CANDIDATE attribute to indicate that the initiator wishes to cease checks for this component.</li>
<li>The STUN Binding Requests generated by the initiator MUST include the ICE-CONTROLLING attribute.</li>
<li>The STUN Binding Requests generated by the responder MUST include the ICE-CONTROLLED attribute.</li>
<li>The parties MUST use STUN short term credentials to authenticate requests and perform message integrity checks. As in &icecore;, the username in the STUN Binding Request is of the form "ufrag-of-sender:ufrag-of-peer" and the password is the value of the 'pwd' attribute provided by the peer. <note>Thus when Romeo sends a STUN Binding Request to Juliet the credentials will be STUN username "8hhy:9uB6" and password "YH75Fviy6338Vbrhrlp8Yh" whereas when Juliet sends a STUN Binding Request to Romeo the credentials will be STUN username "9uB6:8hhy" and password "asd88fgpdd777uzjYhagZg".</note></li>
</ol>
<p>When it receives a STUN Binding Request, each party MUST return a STUN Binding Response, which indicates either an error case or the success case. As described in Section 7.1.2.2 of &icecore;, a connectivity check succeeds if <em>all</em> of the following are true:</p>
<ol>
<li>The STUN transaction generated a success response.</li>
<li>The source IP address and port of the response equals the destination IP address and port to which the Binding Request was sent.</li>
<li>The destination IP address and port of the response match the source IP address and port from which the Binding Request was sent.</li>
</ol>
<p>For the candidates exchanged in the previous section, the connectivity checks would be as follows. In particular, the parties send one STUN Binding Request from each of their local candidates to each of the remote candidates.</p>

<section2 topic='Acceptance of Successful Candidate' anchor='protocol-acceptance'>
<p>If, based on STUN connectivity checks, the parties determine that they will be able to exchange media between a given pair of local candidates and remote candidates (i.e., the pair is "nominated" and ICE processing is "completed"), the parties shall proceed as follows:</p>
<ol>
<li>The responder sends a Jingle session-accept action to the initiator.</li>
<li>The initiator acknowledges receipt of the session-accept.</li>
</ol>
<p>First, the responder sends a session-accept action to the initiator, specifying the candidate that succeeded. The session-accept MUST contain information about the nominated pair, including the "rem-addr" and "rem-port" attributes (which specify the IP address and port for the responder's end of the pair, which is a "remote address" according to the initiator). This enables both parties to explicitly agree to both ends of the connection pair (i.e., the local address+port and the remote address+port).</p>

<section1 topic='Fallback to Raw UDP' anchor='fallback'>
<p>It can happen that the responder does not support ICE, in which case it can be necessary to fall back to use of the &xep0177;. One typical scenario is communication between an ICE-aware Jingle endpoint and a non-ICE-aware SIP endpoint through a Jingle-to-SIP gateway, as follows:</p>
<ol>
<li>The Jingle endpoint sends a session-initiate request to the SIP endpoint, specifying a transport method of ICE-UDP.</li>
<li>Based on capabilities information, the gateway knows that the SIP endpoint does not support ICE, so it enables the endpoints to use its media relay. It does this by:
<ul>
<li>Sending a content-add request to the Jingle endpoint on behalf of the SIP endpoint, specifying a transport method of Raw UDP and a candidate whose IP address and port are hosted at the gateway.</li>
<li>Sending a content-remove request to the Jingle endpoint on behalf of the SIP endpoint, specifying a transport method of ICE-UDP.</li>
<li>Sending SIP INVITE to the SIP endpoint on behalf of the Jingle endpoint, speciying an IP address and port at the gateway.</li>
</ul>
</li>

<p>In order to speed the negotiation process so that media can flow as quickly as possible, the initiator SHOULD gather and prioritize candidates in advance, or as soon as the principal begins the process of initiating a session.</p>
<p>The protocol-level "session-accept" action is not to be confused with an interface-level acceptance of the session request. After receiving and acknowledging the "session-initiate" action received from the initiator, the responder's client SHOULD present an interface element that enables a human user to explicitly agree to proceeding with the session (e.g., an "Accept Incoming Call?" pop-up window including "Yes" and "No" buttons). However, the responder's client SHOULD NOT return a "session-accept" action to the initiator until the responder has explicitly agreed to proceed with the session (unless the initiator is on a list of entities whose sessions are automatically accepted).</p>

<p>By definition, the exchange of transport candidates results in exposure of the sender's IP addresses, which comprise a form of personally identifying information. A Jingle client MUST enable a user to control which entities will be allowed to receive such information. If a human user explicitly accepts a session request, then the client SHOULD consider that action to imply approval of IP address sharing. However, waiting for a human user to explicitly accept the session request can result in delays during session setup, since it is more efficient to immediately begin sharing transport candidates. Therefore, it is RECOMMENDED for the client to immediately send transport candidates to a contact (without waiting for explicit user approval of the session request) in the following cases:</p>
<ol>
<li>The user has permanently and formally authorized the contact to view the user's presence information via a presence subscription as reflected in an XMPP roster item (see &xmppim;).</li>
<li>The user has temporarily and dynamically shared presence with the contact via "directed presence" as described in <cite>RFC 3921</cite>.</li>
<li>The user has explicitly added the contact to a "whitelist" of entities who are allowed to access the user's personally-identifying information.</li>
</ol>

<section2 topic='Encryption of Media' anchor='security-media'>
<p>In order to secure the data stream that is negotiated via the Jingle ICE transport, implementations SHOULD use encryption methods appropriate to the transport method and media being exchanged (for details regarding RTP exchanges, refer to &xep0167;).</p>

<section2 topic='Protocol Namespaces' anchor='registrar-ns'>
<p>This specification defines the following XML namespace:</p>
<ul>
<li>urn:xmpp:jingle:transports:ice-udp:0</li>
</ul>
<p>Upon advancement of this specification from a status of Experimental to a status of Draft, the &REGISTRAR; shall add the foregoing namespaces to the registry located at &NAMESPACES;, as described in Section 4 of &xep0053;.</p>
</section2>
<section2 topic='Protocol Versioning' anchor='registrar-versioning'>
<p>If the protocol defined in this specification undergoes a major revision that is not fully backward-compatible with an older version, or that contains significant new features, the XMPP Registrar shall increment the protocol version number found at the end of the XML namespaces defined herein, as described in Section 4 of <cite>XEP-0053</cite>.</p>
</section2>
<section2 topic='Service Discovery Features' anchor='registrar-features'>
<p>If an entity supports the SDP offer / answer model described in <cite>RFC 3264</cite> and therefore prefers to receive one "transport-info" action with multiple candidates, it MUST advertise support for the "urn:ietf:rfc:3264" feature.</p>
<p>The registry submission is as follows.</p>
<code caption='Registry Submission'><![CDATA[
<var>
<name>urn:ietf:rfc:3264</name>

<section2 topic='Jingle Transport Methods' anchor='registrar-transports'>
<p>The XMPP Registrar shall include "ice-udp" in its registry of Jingle transport methods. The registry submission is as follows:</p>
<code><![CDATA[
<transport>
<name>ice-udp</name>
<desc>
A method for negotiation of out-of-band UDP connections
with built-in NAT and firewall traversal, equivalent to
the IETF's Interactive Connectivity Establishment (ICE)
methodology when resulting in the use of UDP as the
transport protocol.
