RSVP has been extended in several directions [POLICY], [RSVP-APPID],
applicability of RSVP characterizing it as a signaling protocol usable both
inside and outside the Integrated Services [INTSERV] model. With the
addition of the 'Null Service Type' [NULLSERV], RSVP is also being adopted
by mission critical applications that require some form of prioritized
service, but cannot quantify their resource requirements. In cases where
RSVP cannot travel end-to-end, these applications may still benefit from
reservations that are not truly end-to-end, but that are 'proxied' by a
network node on the data path between the sender and the receiver(s). RSVP
Receiver Proxy is an extension to the RSVP message processing (not to the
protocol itself) in which an intermediate network node originates the Resv
message on behalf of the receiver(s) identified by the Path message.
