Dear all,

We have written a draft of NTLP as an effort to contribute to the NSIS working group. We tried to synthesise the discussions in our group and develop the ideas to write this draft.

You can reach it at http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-luu-ntlp-con-imp-00.txt

Best regards and thank you for your attention.

   Abstract :

   The working group NSIS (Next Step In Signaling) is created with the

    ambition to define a new signaling protocol.  This signaling protocol

    will be generic and applicable to the most of present and future

    signaling applications. Some of these signaling applications are

    resource reservation, communication protocol for middlebox, VPN, etc.

    The intention of NSIS is to re-use, where appropriate, the protocol

    mechanisms of RSVP while at the same time simplifying it and applying

    a more general signaling model.

    NSIS signaling protocol is composed of two layers. NTLP (NSIS

    Transport Layer Protocol) layer is responsible for transporting

    signaling messages. NSLP (NSIS Signaling Layer Protocol) is the upper

    layer which contains functionality such as message formats and

    sequences, specific to a particular signaling application.

    This document outlines the proposal of implementation for NTLP which

    can satisfy the requirements defined in the NSIS working group.
