This document specifies ROHC (Robust Header Compression) profiles
that efficiently compress RTP/UDP/IP (Real-Time Transport Protocol,
User Datagram Protocol, Internet Protocol), RTP/UDP-Lite/IP (User
Datagram Protocol Lite), UDP/IP, UDP-Lite/IP, IP and ESP/IP
(Encapsulating Security Payload) headers.

This specification defines a second version of the profiles found in
RFC 3095, RFC 3843 and RFC 4019; it supersedes their definition, but
does not obsolete them.

The ROHCv2 profiles introduce a number of simplifications to the
rules and algorithms that govern the behavior of the compression
endpoints.  It also defines robustness mechanisms that may be used by
a compressor implementation to increase the probability of
decompression success when packets can be lost and/or reordered on
the ROHC channel.  Finally, the ROHCv2 profiles define their own
specific set of header formats, using the ROHC formal notation.
