Everything about RTP Control Protocol
Sister protocol of the Real-time Transport Protocol that provides control information
The RTP Control Protocol (RTCP) is a binary-encoded out-of-band signaling protocol that functions alongside the Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP). RTCP provides statistics and control information for an RTP session. It partners with RTP in the delivery and packaging of multimedia data but does not transport any media data itself. Wikipedia →
