63. SSRC Identifier Allocation and Use Collision Resolution and Loop Detection Collision Resolution and Loop Detection the same SSRC identifier but a different source transport address the same SSRC identifier but a different source transport address if a source discovers that another source is using the same SSRC identifier as its own, if must send an RTCP BYE packet for the old identifier and choose another random one. if a source discovers that another source is using the same SSRC identifier as its own, if must send an RTCP BYE packet for the old identifier and choose another random one. if a receiver discovers that two other source are colliding, it may keep the packets from one and discard the packets from other if a receiver discovers that two other source are colliding, it may keep the packets from one and discard the packets from other detect by different source transport address or CNAMEs detect by different source transport address or CNAMEs

64. SSRC Identifier Allocation and Use loop examples: loop examples: a translator may incorrectly forward a packet to the same multicast group form which it has received the packet a translator may incorrectly forward a packet to the same multicast group form which it has received the packet two translators incorrectly set in parallel two translators incorrectly set in parallel T1 T2
