This item is used to define experimental or application-specific SDES
extensions. The item contains a prefix consisting of a length-string
pair, followed by the value string filling the remainder of the item
and carrying the desired information. The prefix length field is 8
bits long. The prefix string is a name chosen by the person defining
the PRIV item to be unique with respect to other PRIV items this
application might receive. The application creator might choose to
use the application name plus an additional subtype identification if
needed. Alternatively, it is recommended that others choose a name
based on the entity they represent, then coordinate the use of the
name within that entity.
Note that the prefix consumes some space within the item's total
length of 255 octets, so the prefix should be kept as short as
possible. This facility and the constrained RTCP bandwidth should not
be overloaded; it is not intended to satisfy all the control
communication requirements of all applications.
SDES PRIV prefixes will not be registered by IANA. If some form of
the PRIV item proves to be of general utility, it should instead be
assigned a regular SDES item type registered with IANA so that no
prefix is required. This simplifies use and increases transmission
efficiency.
