The mechanism to proxy UDP in HTTP only allows each UDP proxying request to transmit to a specific host and port. This is well suited for UDP client-server protocols such as HTTP/3, but is not sufficient for some UDP peer-to-peer protocols like WebRTC. This document proposes an extension to UDP proxying in HTTP that enables such use- cases.
