 Diameter Straightforward-Naming Authority Pointer (S-NAPTR) Usage

Abstract

 The Diameter base protocol specifies mechanisms whereby a given realm
 may advertise Diameter nodes and the supported transport protocol.
 However, these mechanisms do not reveal the Diameter applications
 that each node supports.  A peer outside the realm would have to
 perform a Diameter capability exchange with every node until it
 discovers one that supports the required application.  This document
 updates RFC 3588, "Diameter Base Protocol", and describes an
 improvement using an extended format for the Straightforward-Naming
 Authority Pointer (S-NAPTR) application service tag that allows for
 discovery of the supported applications without doing Diameter
 capability exchange beforehand.

1. Introduction

 The Diameter base protocol [RFC3588] specifies three mechanisms for
 Diameter peer discovery.  One of these involves the Diameter
 implementation performing a Naming Authority Pointer (NAPTR) query
 [RFC3403] for a server in a particular realm.  These NAPTR records

Jones, et al. Standards Track [Page 2] RFC 6408 Diameter S-NAPTR Usage November 2011

 provide a mapping from a domain to the DNS Service Locator (SRV)
 record [RFC2782] or A/AAAA record [RFC1035] [RFC3596] for contacting
 a server with the specific transport protocol in the NAPTR services
 field.
 The extended NAPTR usage for Diameter peer discovery defined by this
 document is based on the Straightforward-NAPTR (S-NAPTR) Dynamic
 Delegation Discovery System (DDDS) application defined in [RFC3958].
 This document updates the Diameter peer discovery procedure described
 in Section 5.2 of [RFC3588] and defines S-NAPTR application service
 and application protocol tag values that permit the discovery of
 Diameter peers that support a specific Diameter application and
 transport protocol.

2. Terminology

 The Diameter base protocol specification (Section 1.3 of [RFC3588])
 and the Straightforward-NAPTR (S-NAPTR) DDDS application (Section 2.1
 of [RFC3958]) define the terminology used in this document.

2.1. Requirements Language

 The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
 "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
 document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].

3. Extended NAPTR Service Field Format

 The NAPTR service field format defined by the S-NAPTR DDDS
 application in [RFC3958] follows this Augmented Backus-Naur Form
 (ABNF) [RFC5234]:
     service-parms = [ [app-service] *(":" app-protocol)]
     app-service   = experimental-service  / iana-registered-service
     app-protocol  = experimental-protocol / iana-registered-protocol
     experimental-service      = "x-" 1*30ALPHANUMSYM
     experimental-protocol     = "x-" 1*30ALPHANUMSYM
     iana-registered-service   = ALPHA *31ALPHANUMSYM
     iana-registered-protocol  = ALPHA *31ALPHANUMSYM
     ALPHA         =  %x41-5A / %x61-7A   ; A-Z / a-z
     DIGIT         =  %x30-39 ; 0-9
     SYM           =  %x2B / %x2D / %x2E  ; "+" / "-" / "."
     ALPHANUMSYM   =  ALPHA / DIGIT / SYM
     ; The app-service and app-protocol tags are limited to 32
     ; characters and must start with an alphabetic character.
     ; The service-parms are considered case-insensitive.

Jones, et al. Standards Track [Page 3] RFC 6408 Diameter S-NAPTR Usage November 2011

 This specification refines the "iana-registered-service" tag
 definition for the discovery of Diameter agents supporting a specific
 Diameter application as defined below.
     iana-registered-service =/ aaa-service
     aaa-service             = "aaa+ap" appln-id
     appln-id                = 1*10DIGIT
                               ; Application Identifier expressed as
                               ; a decimal integer without leading
                               ; zeros.
 The appln-id element is the Application Identifier used to identify a
 specific Diameter application.  The Diameter Application Identifier
 is a 32-bit unsigned integer, and values are allocated by IANA as
 defined in [RFC3588].
 This specification also refines the "iana-registered-protocol" tag
 definition for the discovery of Diameter agents supporting a specific
 Diameter transport protocol as defined below.
     iana-registered-protocol =/ aaa-protocol
     aaa-protocol             = "diameter." aaa-transport
     aaa-transport            = "tcp" / "sctp" / "tls.tcp"
 The S-NAPTR application protocol tags defined by this specification
 MUST NOT be parsed in any way by the querying application or
 resolver.  The delimiter (".") is present in the tag to improve
 readability and does not imply a structure or namespace of any kind.
 The choice of delimiter (".") for the application protocol tag
 follows the format of existing S-NAPTR application protocol tag
 registry entries, but this does not imply that it shares semantics
 with any other specifications that create registry entries with the
 same format.
 The S-NAPTR application service and application protocol tags defined
 by this specification are unrelated to the IANA "Service Name and
 Transport Protocol Port Number Registry" (see [RFC6335]).
 The maximum length of the NAPTR service field is 256 octets,
 including a one-octet length field (see Section 4.1 of [RFC3403] and
 Section 3.3 of [RFC1035]).

Jones, et al. Standards Track [Page 4] RFC 6408 Diameter S-NAPTR Usage November 2011

3.1. IETF Standards Track Diameter Applications

 A Diameter agent MUST be capable of using the extended S-NAPTR
 application service tag for dynamic discovery of a Diameter agent
 supporting Standards Track applications.  Therefore, every IETF
 Standards Track Diameter application MUST be associated with a
 "aaa-service" tag formatted as defined in this specification and
 allocated in accordance with IANA policy (see Section 7).
 For example, a NAPTR service field value of:
    'aaa+ap6:diameter.sctp'
 means that the Diameter node in the SRV or A/AAAA record supports the
 Diameter Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) application ('6') and the
 Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) as the transport
 protocol.

3.2. Vendor-Specific Diameter Applications

 S-NAPTR application service and application protocol tag values can
 also be used to discover Diameter peers that support a vendor-
 specific Diameter application.  In this case, the vendor-specific
 Diameter application MUST be associated with a "aaa-service" tag
 formatted as defined in this specification and allocated in
 accordance with IANA policy (see Section 7).
 For example, a NAPTR service field value of:
    'aaa+ap16777251:diameter.sctp'
 means that the Diameter node in the SRV or A/AAAA record supports the
 Diameter Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) S6a application
 ('16777251') and SCTP as the transport protocol.

4. Backwards Compatibility

 Domain Name System (DNS) administrators SHOULD also provision legacy
 NAPTR records [RFC3403] in the RFC 3588 style in order to guarantee
 backwards compatibility with legacy Diameter peers that are RFC 3588
 compliant.  If the DNS administrator provisions both extended S-NAPTR
 records as defined in this specification and legacy RFC 3588 NAPTR
 records, then the extended S-NAPTR records MUST have higher priority
 (e.g., lower order and/or preference values) than legacy NAPTR
 records.

Jones, et al. Standards Track [Page 5] RFC 6408 Diameter S-NAPTR Usage November 2011

5. Extended NAPTR-Based Diameter Peer Discovery

 The Diameter Peer Discovery principles are described in Section 5.2
 of [RFC3588].  This specification updates the NAPTR query procedure
 in the Diameter peer discovery mechanism by allowing the querying
 node to determine which applications are supported by resolved
 Diameter peers.
 The extended-format NAPTR records provide a mapping from a domain to
 the SRV record or A/AAAA record for contacting a server supporting a
 specific transport protocol and Diameter application.  The resource
 record will contain an empty regular expression and a replacement
 value, which is the SRV record or the A/AAAA record for that
 particular transport protocol.
 The assumption for this mechanism to work is that the DNS
 administrator of the queried domain has first provisioned the DNS
 with extended-format NAPTR entries.  The steps below replace the
 NAPTR query procedure steps in Section 5.2 of [RFC3588].
 a. The Diameter implementation performs a NAPTR query for a server in
    a particular realm.  The Diameter implementation has to know in
    advance in which realm to look for a Diameter agent, and in which
    Application Identifier it is interested.  For example, the realm
    could be deduced from the Network Access Identifier (NAI) in the
    User-Name attribute-value pair (AVP) or extracted from the
    Destination-Realm AVP.
 b. If the returned NAPTR service fields contain entries formatted as
    "aaa+apX:Y" where "X" indicates the Application Identifier and "Y"
    indicates the supported transport protocol(s), the target realm
    supports the extended format for NAPTR-based Diameter peer
    discovery defined in this document.
       If "X" contains the required Application Identifier and "Y"
       matches a supported transport protocol, the Diameter
       implementation resolves the "replacement" field entry to a
       target host using the lookup method appropriate for the "flags"
       field.
       If "X" does not contain the required Application Identifier or
       "Y" does not match a supported transport protocol, the Diameter
       implementation abandons the peer discovery.

Jones, et al. Standards Track [Page 6] RFC 6408 Diameter S-NAPTR Usage November 2011

 c. If the returned NAPTR service fields contain entries formatted as
    "aaa+apX" where "X" indicates the Application Identifier, the
    target realm supports the extended format for NAPTR-based Diameter
    peer discovery defined in this document.
       If "X" contains the required Application Identifier, the
       Diameter implementation resolves the "replacement" field entry
       to a target host using the lookup method appropriate for the
       "flags" field and attempts to connect using all supported
       transport protocols following the order specified in
       Section 2.1 of [RFC3588].
       If "X" does not contain the required Application Identifier,
       the Diameter implementation abandons the peer discovery.
 d. If the returned NAPTR service fields contain entries formatted as
    "aaa:X" where "X" indicates the supported transport protocol(s),
    the target realm supports Diameter but does not support the
    extended format for NAPTR-based Diameter peer discovery defined in
    this document.
       If "X" matches a supported transport protocol, the Diameter
       implementation resolves the "replacement" field entry to a
       target host using the lookup method appropriate for the "flags"
       field.
 e. If the returned NAPTR service fields contain entries formatted as
    "aaa", the target realm supports Diameter but does not support the
    extended format for NAPTR-based Diameter peer discovery defined in
    this document.  The Diameter implementation resolves the
    "replacement" field entry to a target host using the lookup method
    appropriate for the "flags" field and attempts to connect using
    all supported transport protocols following the order specified in
    Section 2.1 of [RFC3588].
 f. If the target realm does not support NAPTR-based Diameter peer
    discovery, the client proceeds with the next peer discovery
    mechanism described in Section 5.2 of [RFC3588].

5.1. Examples

 As an example, consider a client that wishes to discover a Diameter
 server in the ex1.example.com realm that supports the Credit Control
 application.  The client performs a NAPTR query for that domain, and
 the following NAPTR records are returned:

Jones, et al. Standards Track [Page 7] RFC 6408 Diameter S-NAPTR Usage November 2011

     ;;        order pref flags service   regexp replacement
     IN NAPTR  50    50   "s"   "aaa:diameter.sctp" ""
                  _diameter._sctp.ex1.example.com
     IN NAPTR  50    50   "s"   "aaa+ap1:diameter.sctp" ""
                  _diameter._sctp.ex1.example.com
     IN NAPTR  50    50   "s"   "aaa+ap4:diameter.sctp" ""
                  _diameter._sctp.ex1.example.com
 This indicates that the server supports NASREQ (ID=1) and Credit
 Control (ID=4) applications over SCTP.  If the client supports SCTP,
 it will be used, targeted to a host determined by an SRV lookup of
 _diameter._sctp.ex1.example.com.
 That SRV lookup would return:
     ;;       Priority  Weight  Port    Target
     IN SRV   0         1       3868    server1.ex1.example.com
     IN SRV   0         2       3868    server2.ex1.example.com
 As an alternative example, a client wishes to discover a Diameter
 server in the ex2.example.com realm that supports the NASREQ
 application over SCTP.  The client performs a NAPTR query for that
 domain, and the following NAPTR records are returned:
     ;;        order pref flags service   regexp replacement
     IN NAPTR  150   50   "a"   "aaa:diameter.sctp"  ""
                  server1.ex2.example.com
     IN NAPTR  150   50   "a"   "aaa:diameter.tls.tcp"  ""
                  server2.ex2.example.com
     IN NAPTR  150   50   "a"   "aaa+ap1:diameter.sctp"  ""
                  server1.ex2.example.com
     IN NAPTR  150   50   "a"   "aaa+ap1:diameter.tls.tcp"  ""
                  server2.ex2.example.com
 This indicates that the server supports NASREQ (ID=1) over SCTP and
 Transport Layer Security (TLS)/TCP via hosts server1.ex2.example.com
 and server2.ex2.example.com, respectively.

6. Usage Guidelines

 Diameter is a peer-to-peer protocol, whereas most of the applications
 that extend the base protocol behave like client/server applications.
 The role of the peer is not advertised in the NAPTR tags and not even
 communicated during Diameter capability negotiation
 (Capabilities-Exchange-Request and Capabilities-Exchange-Answer
 message exchange).  For this reason, NAPTR-based Diameter peer
 discovery for an application defining client/server roles should only
 be used by a client to discover servers.

Jones, et al. Standards Track [Page 8] RFC 6408 Diameter S-NAPTR Usage November 2011

7. IANA Considerations

7.1. IETF Diameter Application Service Tags

 IANA has reserved a value of "aaa" for Diameter in the "(S-NAPTR)
 Application Service Tag" registry created by [RFC3958].  IANA has
 also reserved the following S-NAPTR application service tags for
 existing IETF Diameter applications in the same registry.
           +------------------+----------------------------+
           | Tag              | Diameter Application       |
           +------------------+----------------------------+

           +------------------+----------------------------+
 Future IETF Diameter applications MUST reserve the S-NAPTR
 application service tag corresponding to the allocated Diameter
 Application ID as defined in Section 3.

7.2. 3GPP Diameter Application Service Tags

 IANA has reserved the following S-NAPTR application service tags for
 existing 3GPP Diameter applications in the "S-NAPTR Application
 Service Tag" registry created by [RFC3958].
               +----------------+----------------------+

               | aaa+ap16777267 | 3GPP S9 [TS29.215]   |
               +----------------+----------------------+
 Future 3GPP Diameter applications can reserve entries in the "S-NAPTR
 Application Service Tag" registry created by [RFC3958] that
 correspond to the allocated Diameter Application IDs as defined in
 Section 3.

 Future WiMAX Forum Diameter applications can reserve entries in the
 "S-NAPTR Application Service Tag" registry created by [RFC3958] that
 correspond to the allocated Diameter Application IDs as defined in
 Section 3.

7.4. Vendor-Specific Diameter Application Service Tags

 Vendor-Specific Diameter Application IDs are allocated by IANA
 according to the "First Come First Served" policy and do not require
 an IETF specification.  However, the S-NAPTR application service tag
 registry created by [RFC3958] defines a registration policy of

Jones, et al. Standards Track [Page 10] RFC 6408 Diameter S-NAPTR Usage November 2011

 "Specification Required" with a further stipulation that the
 "specification" is an RFC (of any category).  If a vendor-specific
 Diameter application requires the functionality defined in this
 document, an RFC of any category MUST be published that reserves the
 S-NAPTR Application Service Tag corresponding to the Vendor-Specific
 Diameter Application ID as defined in Section 3.

7.5. Diameter Application Protocol Tags

 IANA has reserved the following S-NAPTR Application Protocol Tags for
 the Diameter transport protocols in the "S-NAPTR Application Protocol
 Tag" registry created by [RFC3958].
                    +------------------+----------+
                    | Tag              | Protocol |
                    +------------------+----------+
                    | diameter.tcp     | TCP      |
                    | diameter.sctp    | SCTP     |
                    | diameter.tls.tcp | TLS/TCP  |
                    +------------------+----------+
 Future Diameter versions that introduce new transport protocols MUST
 reserve an appropriate S-NAPTR Application Protocol Tag in the
 "S-NAPTR Application Protocol Tag" registry created by [RFC3958].

8. Security Considerations

 This document specifies an enhancement to the NAPTR service field
 format defined in RFC 3588 and also modifications to the NAPTR
 processing logic defined in RFC 3588.  The enhancement and
 modifications are based on the S-NAPTR, which is actually a
 simplification of the NAPTR, and therefore the same security
 considerations described in RFC 3588 [RFC3588] are applicable to this
 document.  No further extensions are required beyond the security
 mechanisms offered by RFC 3588.  However, a malicious host doing
 S-NAPTR queries learns applications supported by Diameter agents in a
 certain realm faster, which might help the malicious host to scan
 potential targets for an attack more efficiently when some
 applications have known vulnerabilities.
