This memo describes a Packet Protocol used in the Secure Internet Live
Conferencing (SILC) protocol, specified in the Secure Internet Live
-Conferencing, Protocol Specification Internet Draft [SILC1]. This
-protocol describes the packet types and packet payloads which defines
-the contents of the packets. The protocol provides secure binary packet
-protocol that assures that the contents of the packets are secured and

This document describes a Packet Protocol used in the Secure Internet
Live Conferencing (SILC) protocol specified in the Secure Internet Live
-Conferencing, Protocol Specification Internet Draft [SILC1]. This
-protocol describes the packet types and packet payloads which defines
-the contents of the packets. The protocol provides secure binary packet
-protocol that assures that the contents of the packets are secured and
-authenticated. The packet protocol is designed to be compact to avoid
-unnecessary overhead as much as possible. This makes the SILC suitable
-also in environment of low bandwidth requirements such as mobile networks.
-All packet payloads can also be compressed to further reduce the size
-of the packets.

All packets in SILC network are always encrypted and their integrity
is assured by computed MACs. The protocol defines several packet types
Sent when client has joined to a channel. The server MUST
distribute this type to the local clients on the channel and then
- send it to its primary router. The router or server receiving the
- packet distributes this type to the local clients on the channel
- and broadcast it to the network.
