<title>Jingle In-Band Bytestreams Transport Method</title>
|
|
<abstract>This specification defines a Jingle transport method that results in sending data via the In-Band Bytestreams (IBB) protocol defined in XEP-0047. Essentially this transport method reuses XEP-0047 semantics for sending the data and defines native Jingle methods for starting and ending an IBB session.</abstract>

|
|
<p>&xep0166; defines a framework for negotiating and managing 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. The current document defines a transport method for establishing and managing data exchanges between XMPP entities using the existing In-Band Bytestreams (IBB) protocol specified in &xep0047;. This "jingle-ibb" method results in a streaming transport method suitable for use in Jingle application types where packet loss cannot be tolerated (e.g., file transfer); however, because the "jingle-ibb" transport method sends data over the XMPP channel itself (albeit not the Jingle signalling channel), it is intended as a transport of last resort when other streaming transports cannot be negotiated.</p>
|
|
<p>The approach taken in this specification is to use the existing IBB mechanisms described in XEP-0047 for transporting the data, and to define Jingle-specific methods only to start and end the in-band bytestream.</p>

<p>This flow is illustrated in the following examples (to prevent confusion these use a "stub" transport instead of a real application type).</p>
|

<p>First the initiator sends a Jingle session-initiate request.</p>

<p class='box'>Note: The Jingle IBB Transport Method defines one attribute in addition to those defined in XEP-0047: the 'stanza' attribute. This attribute specifies whether the initiator intends to send IBB data using &MESSAGE; or &IQ; stanzas, but is purely advisory. The default value is "iq", and it is RECOMMENDED to send IBB data using IQ stanzas instead of message stanzas because IQ stanzas provide feedback to the sender regarding delivery to the recipient (e.g., if the recipient is on a small pipe and cannot handle a large volume of IBB packets in quick succession).</p>
|
|
<p>The responder immediately acknowledges receipt (but does not yet accept the session).</p>

<section1 topic='Adding a Session to a Bytestream' anchor='session'>
|
|
<p>As IBB is defined in XEP-0047, there is one session per bytestream (which can be used in both directions). To extend this idea, it might be useful to run multiple sessions over a single bytestream. This can be done by sending a transport-info message that authorizes an additional session, as shown in the following example.</p>

<p>In order for an application to determine whether an entity supports this protocol, where possible it SHOULD use the dynamic, presence-based profile of service discovery defined in &xep0115;. However, if an application has not received entity capabilities information from an entity, it SHOULD use explicit service discovery instead.</p>
