Session Announcement Protocol

The Session Announcement Protocol (SAP) is an experimental protocol for advertising multicast session information. SAP typically uses Session Description Protocol (SDP) as the format for Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) session descriptions. Announcement data is sent using IP multicast and the User Datagram Protocol (UDP).

Under SAP, senders periodically transmit SDP descriptions to a well-known multicast address and port number (9875).[1] A listening application constructs a guide of all advertised multicast sessions.

SAP was published by the IETF as RFC 2974.[2]
