Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- generating a Session Description Protocol (SDP) construct, the SDP construct being arranged to be included in a first signaling flow;
providing an attribute in the SDP construct, the attribute being arranged to identify an application type associated with a first traffic flow; and
forwarding the SDP construct on the first signaling flow.

Abstract
In one embodiment, a method includes generating a Session Description Protocol (SDP) construct, the SDP construct being arranged to be included in a first signaling flow. The method also includes providing an attribute in the SDP construct. The attribute identifies an application type associated with a first traffic flow. Finally, the SDP construct is forwarded on the first signaling flow.
