Review of MSRP Delivery Mechanisms
This paper shows that the currently defined per-message hop-by-hop
mechanism doesn22t scale for large deployments and is not feasible for
scalable IM conferencing. Instead, the paper proposes to replace this
mechanism with an MSRP layer "per TCP connection keep-alive
mechanism". This paper also reinforces the need for the end-to-end
mechanism to be defined in the core MSRP specification and to become
the abstraction for all MSRP applications regardless the underlying
topology in use.
