Description-en: Unicast and multicast voice-over-IP application
RAT is a network audio tool that allows users to participate in audio
conferences over the Internet. These can be between two participants
directly, or between a group of participants on a common multicast group.
No special features are required to use RAT in point-to-point mode, but to
use the multicast conferencing facilities of RAT, a connection to the
Mbone, or a similar multicast-capable network, is required. RAT is based on
IETF standards, using RTP above UDP/IP as its transport protocol, and
conforming to the RTP profile for audio and video conferences with minimal
control.
