There is no such thing as streaming RTP voer RTSP. RTSP is a VOD 
protocol for controlling the streaming server, while RTP is a streaming 
protocol designed to deliver the audio video data to the client.

You can't! The only thing you can do is control the RTP stream using an 
RTSP control channel. The --sout-rtp-sdp options tells the RTP stream 
output to generate an SDP file for this stream.
