The libSRTP library is an open-source implementation of the Secure Real-time Transport Protocol (SRTP) originally authored by Cisco Systems, Inc. It is available under a BSD-style license.

SRTP is a security profile for RTP that adds confidentiality, message authentication, and replay protection to that protocol. It is specified in RFC 3711. More information on the SRTP protocol itself can be found on the Secure RTP Page.

Installation:

./configure [ options ] # GNU autoconf script
make # or gmake if needed; use GNU make

The configure script accepts the following options:

--help provides a usage summary
--disable-debug compile without the runtime debugging system
--enable-syslog use syslog for error reporting
--disable-stdout use stdout for error reporting
--enable-console use /dev/console for error reporting
--gdoi use GDOI key management (disabled at present)

By default, debbuging is enabled and stdout is used for debugging. You can use the above configure options to have the debugging output sent to syslog or the system console. Alternatively, you can define ERR_REPORTING_FILE in include/conf.h to be any other file that can be opened by libSRTP, and debug messages will be sent to it.

This package has been tested on Mac OS X (powerpc-apple-darwin1.4),
Cygwin (i686-pc-cygwin), and Sparc (sparc-sun-solaris2.6). Previous
versions have been tested on Linux and OpenBSD on both x86 and sparc
platforms.
