Abstract

   This document defines a generic framework for preconditions, which
   are extensible through IANA registration.  This document also
   discusses how network quality of service can be made a precondition
   for establishment of sessions initiated by the Session Initiation
   Protocol (SIP).  These preconditions require that the participant
   reserve network resources before continuing with the session.  We do
   not define new quality of service reservation mechanisms; these
   preconditions simply require a participant to use existing resource
   reservation mechanisms before beginning the session.
