2.1 Transport

When the Remote Assistance connection is started, it MUST create three virtual channels:

  • The session initialization virtual channel is used to initialize the Remote Assistance session. If setup as a dynamic virtual channel it MUST be named "RC_CTL".  If using a static virtual channel, it MUST be named "remdesk".

  • A second virtual channel named "70" MUST be created, and is used to exchange chat messages.

  • A third virtual channel named "71" MUST be created, and is used for share control and for the initialization of file transfer and VoIP control.

These three virtual channels MUST persist for the duration of the Remote Assistance session.

A separate virtual channel for file transfer MUST be created dynamically when needed.
