+
+ Real-time Facsimile (T.38) - image/t38
+ MIME Sub-type Registration
+
+Status of this Memo
+
+ This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for the
+ Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for
+ improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the "Internet
+ Official Protocol Standards" (STD 1) for the standardization state
+ and status of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.

+
+Abstract
+
+ This document describes the registration of the MIME sub-type
+ image/t38. The encoding is defined by ITU Recommendation T.38 and is
+ intended for use as an Session Description Protocol (SDP) media
+ descriptor.
+
+1. Conventions used in this document
+
+ The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
+ "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
+ document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14, RFC 2119
+ [REQ].
+
+2. Overview
+
+ This document describes the registration of the MIME sub-type
+ image/t38. The encoding is defined by [T.38] and is intended for use
+ as an SDP media descriptor.
+
+3. T.38 Definition
+
+ ITU-T Recommendation T.38 [T.38] describes the technical features
+ necessary to transfer facsimile documents in real-time between two
+ standard Group 3 facsimile terminals over the Internet or other
+ networks using IP protocols. The Recommendation allows the use of
+ either TCP or UDP depending on the service environment.

+
+RFC 3362 MIME Sub-type image/t38 August 2002
+
+
+ ITU-T Recommendation T.38 [T.38] Annex D describes system level
+ requirements and procedures for internet aware facsimile
+ implementations and internet aware facsimile gateways conforming to
+ ITU-T T.38 to establish calls with other ITU-T T.38 implementations
+ using the procedures defined in IETF RFC 2543 [SIP-99] and IETF RFC
+ 2327 [SDP].
+
+ Note that ITU-T T.38 Recommendation T.38 (04/02) [T.38] is an
+ aggregation of the original ITU-T Recommendation T.38 (06/98) [T.38-
+ 98] and all of the subsequent Amendments and Corrigendum including
+ [T.38D-00]. While [T.38] and [T.38D-00] describe SIP procedures per
+ [SIP-99], the procedures can also be applied to the revised Session
+ Initiation Protocol specification [SIP].
+
+3.1 image/t38 Usage
+
+ Annex D of [T.38] describes that the image/t38 media type is intended
+ to indicate a T.38 media stream in SDP.
+
+ This media type registration is not intended for email usage.
+
+4. IANA Registration
+
+ To: ietf-types@iana.org
+ Subject: Registration of Standard MIME media type image/t38
+
+ MIME media type name: image
+
+ MIME subtype name: t38
+
+ Required parameters: none
+
+ Optional parameters: none
+
+ Encoding considerations: Binary
+
+ Security considerations:
+
+ This content denotes a facsimile bit stream that may or
+ may not be encrypted.
+
+ Interoperability considerations :
+
+ This MIME media subtype is intended to be used as a
+ parameter by SDP in SIP call setup for T.38 as described in
+ ITU-T Rec. T.38 Annex D. Any use of this media type by
+ email applications is not defined and as a result is not
+ guaranteed to interoperate with a T.38 stream.
