What's New in RTC

RTC Version 1.0 delivered basic SIP-based real-time communications functionality for the development of content-streaming client applications.

RTC Version 1.01 provides extensions for the application to provide IP port and address mappings for clients situated behind a Network Address Translator (NAT).

RTC Version 1.2 offers the following functional additions on top of the 1.0 specification:

  • Improved multiple service connection support.
  • SIP-based user search behaviors.
  • Support for logical buddy groupings.
  • Support for contact roaming behavior. Roaming functionality is a SIP extension, and not a component of standard SIP services.
  • Support for event handling of the SIP INFO request.
  • Support for custom presence properties.
  • Support for ACL-based contact access.

RTC Version 1.3 adds the following features to version 1.2:

  • Enhanced MPOP support.
  • Additional client security options.
  • Marshalling support.
  • Support for new Microsoft® Office Live Communications Server features.
