Internet Stream Protocol

Internet Stream Protocol

The Internet Stream Protocol (ST) is an experimental protocol defined in Internet Engineering Note IEN-119 (1979), which was later revised in RFC 1190 (ST2) and RFC 1819 (ST2+). ST packets carried the experimental non-IP real-time stream protocol.

ST was envisioned to be the connection-oriented complement to IPv4, but it has never been introduced for public usage. Many of the concepts available in ST can be found today in MPLS.

ST was assigned Internet Protocol version number 5, but it was never known as IPv5. The packet format of ST2 is identical to IPv4's header, with the exception of the incremented version number in the first 4 bits. ST uses the same IP address structure and the same Link Layer interfaces as IP.
