This document specifies protocol stacks for the routing and transport of
per-flow signaling messages along the path taken by that flow through the
network. The solution uses existing transport and security protocols under
a common messaging layer, the Generic Internet Messaging Protocol for
Signaling (GIMPS), which provides a universal service for diverse signaling
applications. GIMPS does not handle signaling application state itself, but
manages its own internal state and the configuration of the underlying
transport and security protocols to enable the transfer of messages in both
directions along the flow path. The combination of GIMPS and the lower
layer protocols provides a solution for the base protocol component of the
