Media over QUIC Transport (MOQT) over QMux

groupnone stateactive pages12 rev00 expires2026-09-03 canonicalhttps://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-nandakumar-moq-qmux-moqt/
This document specifies how Media over QUIC Transport (MOQT) can operate over QMux, enabling MOQT applications to function over reliable byte-oriented streams such as TCP with TLS. By utilizing QMux as an intermediate layer, MOQT deployments gain the ability to fall back to TCP-based transport when UDP is blocked or unreliable, while maintaining API compatibility with QUIC-native implementations. This document analyzes the benefits and trade-offs of this approach and provides implementation guidance for deploying MOQT over QMux.
