This document updates RFC 5444 by providing rules and recommendations for how the multiplexer operates and how protocols can use the packet/message format. In particular, the mandatory rules prohibit a number of uses of RFC 5444 that have been suggested in various proposals, and which would have led to interoperability problems, to the impediment of protocol extension development, and to an inability to use optional generic RFC 5444 parsers.}, }
