1.  Introduction

   Simple Two-way Active Measurement Protocol (STAMP) [RFC8762] defined
   the STAMP base functionalities.  This document specifies the use of
   optional extensions that use Type-Length-Value (TLV) encoding.  Such
   extensions enhance the STAMP base functions, such as measurement of
   one-way and round-trip delay, latency, packet loss, packet

   duplication, and out-of-order delivery of test packets.  This
   specification defines optional STAMP extensions, their formats, and
   the theory of operation.  Also, a STAMP Test Session Identifier is
   defined as an update of the base STAMP specification [RFC8762].

3.  STAMP Test Session Identifier

   The STAMP Session-Sender transmits test packets to the STAMP Session-
   Reflector.  The STAMP Session-Reflector receives the Session-Sender's
   packet and acts according to the configuration and optional control
   information communicated in the Session-Sender's test packet.  STAMP
   defines two different test packet formats, one for packets
   transmitted by the STAMP Session-Sender and one for packets
   transmitted by the STAMP Session-Reflector.  STAMP supports two
   modes: unauthenticated and authenticated.  Unauthenticated STAMP test
   packets are compatible on the wire with unauthenticated TWAMP-Test
   [RFC5357] packets.

   By default, STAMP uses symmetrical packets, i.e., the size of the
   packet transmitted by the Session-Reflector equals the size of the
   packet received by the Session-Reflector.

   A STAMP Session is identified by the 4-tuple (source and destination
   IP addresses, source and destination UDP port numbers).  A STAMP
   Session-Sender MAY generate a locally unique STAMP Session Identifier
   (SSID).  The SSID is a two-octet-long non-zero unsigned integer.
   SSID generation policy is implementation-specific.
   [I-D.gont-numeric-ids-generation] thoroughly analyzes common
   algorithms for identifier generation and their vulnerabilities.  For
   example, an implementation can use algorithms described in
   Section 7.1 of [I-D.gont-numeric-ids-generation].  An implementation
   MUST NOT assign the same identifier to different STAMP test sessions.
   A Session-Sender MAY use the SSID to identify a STAMP test session.
   If the SSID is used, it MUST be present in each test packet of the
   given test session.  In the unauthenticated mode, the SSID is located
   as displayed in Figure 1.

   Figure 1: The format of an extended STAMP Session-Sender test packet
                          in unauthenticated mode

   An implementation of the STAMP Session-Reflector that supports this
   specification MUST identify a STAMP Session using the SSID in
   combination with elements of the usual 4-tuple for the session.
   Before a test session commences, a Session-Reflector MUST be
   provisioned with all the elements that identify the STAMP Session.  A
   STAMP Session-Reflector MUST discard non-matching STAMP test
   packet(s).  The means of provisioning the STAMP Session
   identification is outside the scope of this specification.  A
   conforming implementation of STAMP Session-Reflector MUST copy the
   SSID value from the received test packet and put it into the
   reflected packet, as displayed in Figure 2.

     Figure 2: The format of an extended STAMP Session-Reflector test
                      packet in unauthenticated mode

   A STAMP Session-Reflector that does not support this specification
   will return the zeroed SSID field in the reflected STAMP test packet.
   The Session-Sender MAY stop the session if it receives a zeroed SSID
   field.  An implementation of a Session-Sender MUST support control of
   its behavior in such a scenario.  If the test session is not stopped,
   the Session-Sender, can, for example, send a base STAMP packet
   [RFC8762] or continue transmitting STAMP test packets with the SSID.

   Location of the SSID field in the authenticated mode is shown in
   Figure 3 and Figure 4.

4.  TLV Extensions to STAMP

   The Type-Length-Value (TLV) encoding scheme provides a flexible
   extension mechanism for optional informational elements.  TLV is an
   optional field in the STAMP test packet.  Multiple TLVs MAY be placed
   in a STAMP test packet.  Additional TLVs may be enclosed within a
   given TLV, subject to the semantics of the (outer) TLV in question.
   TLVs have a one-octet-long STAMP TLV Flags field, a one-octet-long
   Type field, and a two-octet-long Length field that is equal to the
   length of the Value field in octets.  If a Type value for TLV or sub-
   TLV is in the range for Vendor Private Use, the Length MUST be at
   least 4, and the first four octets MUST be that vendor's Structure of
   Management Information (SMI) Private Enterprise Code, as recorded in
   IANA's SMI Private Enterprise Codes sub-registry, in network octet

   order.  The rest of the Value field is private to the vendor.  The
   following sections describe the use of TLVs for STAMP that extend the
   STAMP capability beyond its base specification.

   where fields are defined as the following:

   o  STAMP TLV Flags - eight-bit-long field.  Detailed format and
      interpretation of flags defined in this specification is below.

   o  Type - one-octet-long field that characterizes the interpretation
      of the Value field.  It is allocated by IANA, as specified in
      Section 5.1.

   o  Length - two-octet-long field equal to the length of the Value
      field in octets.

   o  Value - a variable-length field.  Its interpretation and encoding
      is determined by the value of the Type field.

   All multibyte fields in TLVs defined in this specification are in
   network byte order.

   The format of the STAMP TLV Flags displayed in Figure 6 and the
   location of flags is according to Section 5.2.

   o  U (Unrecognized) is a one-bit flag.  A Session-Sender MUST set the
      U flag to 1 before transmitting an extended STAMP test packet.  A
      Session-Reflector MUST set the U flag to 1 if the Session-

      Reflector has not understood the TLV.  Otherwise, the Session-
      Reflector MUST set the U flag in the reflected packet to 0.

   o  M (Malformed) is a one-bit flag.  A Session-Sender MUST set the M
      flag to 0 before transmitting an extended STAMP test packet.  A
      Session-Reflector MUST set the M flag to 1 if the Session-
      Reflector determined the TLV is malformed, i.e., the Length field
      value is not valid for the particular type, or the remaining
      length of the extended STAMP packet is less than the size of the
      TLV.  Otherwise, the Session-Reflector MUST set the M flag in the
      reflected packet to 0.

   o  I (Integrity) is a one-bit flag.  A Session-Sender MUST set the I
      flag to 0 before transmitting an extended STAMP test packet.  A
      Session-Reflector MUST set the I flag to 1 if the STAMP extensions
      have failed HMAC verification (Section 4.8).  Otherwise, the
      Session-Reflector MUST set the I flag in the reflected packet to
      0.

   o  R - reserved flags for future use.  These flags MUST be zeroed on
      transmit and ignored on receipt.

   A STAMP node, whether Session-Sender or Session-Reflector, receiving
   a test packet MUST determine whether the packet is a base STAMP
   packet or includes one or more TLVs.  The node MUST compare the value
   in the Length field of the UDP header and the length of the base
   STAMP test packet in the mode, unauthenticated or authenticated based
   on the configuration of the particular STAMP test session.  If the
   difference between the two values is larger than the length of the
   UDP header, then the test packet includes one or more STAMP TLVs that
   immediately follow the base STAMP test packet.  A Session-Reflector
   that does not support STAMP extensions will not process but copy them
   into the reflected packet, as defined in Section 4.3 [RFC8762].  A
   Session-Reflector that supports TLVs will indicate specific TLVs that
   it did not process by setting the U flag to 1 in those TLVs.

   A STAMP Session-Sender that has received a reflected STAMP test
   packet with extension TLVs MUST validate each TLV:

      If the U flag is set, the STAMP system MUST skip the processing of
      the TLV.

      If the M flag is set, the STAMP system MUST stop processing the
      remainder of the extended STAMP packet.

      If the I flag is set, the STAMP system MUST discard all TLVs and
      MUST stop processing the remainder of the extended STAMP packet.

      If an implementation of a Session-Reflector does not recognize the
      Type field value, it MUST include a copy of the TLV into the
      reflected STAMP packet.  The Session-Reflector MUST set the U flag
      to 1.  The Session-Reflector MUST skip the processing of the
      unrecognized TLV.

      If a TLV is malformed, the processing of extension TLVs MUST be
      stopped.  The Session-Reflector MUST copy the remainder of the
      received extended STAMP packet into the reflected STAMP packet.
      The Session-Reflector MUST set the M flag to 1.

      presented in Figure 6.

   o  Extra Padding Type - is a one-octet-long field, value TBA1
      allocated by IANA Section 5.1.

   o  Length - two-octet-long field equal to the length of the Extra
      Padding field in octets.

   o  Extra Padding - SHOULD be filled by a sequence of a pseudo-random
      numbers.  The field MAY be filled with all zeros.  An
      implementation MUST control the type of filling of the Extra
      Padding field.

   The Extra Padding TLV is similar to the Packet Padding field in a
   TWAMP-Test packet [RFC5357].  The use of the Extra Padding TLV is
   RECOMMENDED to perform a STAMP test using test packets of larger size
   than the base STAMP packet [RFC8762].  The length of the base STAMP
   packet is 44 octets in the unauthenticated mode or 112 octets in the
   authenticated mode.  The Extra Padding TLV MAY be present more than
   one time in an extended STAMP test packet.

4.2.  Location TLV

   STAMP Session-Senders MAY include the variable-size Location TLV to
   query location information from the Session-Reflector.  The Session-

      Reflector responds with the corresponding more-specific sub-TLVs
      for the type of address (e.g., IPv4 or IPv6) used at the Session-
      Reflector.

   Note that all fields not filled by either a Session-Sender or
   Session-Reflector are transmitted with all bits set to zero.

4.2.1.  Location Sub-TLVs

   A sub-TLV in the Location TLV uses the format displayed in Figure 5.
   Handling of the U and M flags in the sub-TLV is as defined in
   Section 4.  The I flag MUST be set by a Session-Sender and Session-
   Reflector to 0 before transmission and its value ignored on receipt.
   The following types of sub-TLV for the Location TLV are defined in
   this specification (type values are assigned according to Table 5):

   o  Source MAC Address sub-TLV - is a 12-octet-long sub-TLV.  The Type
      value is TBA9.  The value of the Length field MUST equal to 8.
      The Value field is an 8-octet-long MBZ field that MUST be zeroed
      on transmission and ignored on receipt.

   o  Source EUI-48 Address sub-TLV - is a 12-octet-long sub-TLV that
      includes the EUI-48 source MAC address.  The Type value is TBA10.
      The value of the Length field MUST equal to 8.

      *  12-octet-long MBZ field MUST be zeroed on transmit and ignored
         on receipt.

   o  Destination IPv6 Address sub-TLV - is a 20-octet-long sub-TLV that
      includes IPv6 destination address.  The Type value is TBA14.  The
      value of the Length field MUST equal to 16.  The Value field is a
      16-octet-long IP v6 Address field.

   o  Source IP Address sub-TLV - is a 20-octet-long sub-TLV.  The Type
      value is TBA15.  The value of the Length field MUST equal to 16.
      The Value field is a 16-octet-long MBZ field that MUST be zeroed
      on transmit and ignored on receipt

   o  Source IPv4 Address sub-TLV - is a 20-octet-long sub-TLV that
      includes IPv4 source address.  The Type value is TBA16.  The value
      of the Length field MUST equal to 16.  The Value field consists of
      the following fields (Figure 10):

      *  The IPv4 Address is a four-octet-long field.

      *  12-octet-long MBZ field that MUST be zeroed on transmit and
         ignored on receipt.

   o  Source IPv6 Address sub-TLV - is a 20-octet-long sub-TLV that
      includes IPv6 source address.  The Type value is TBA17.  The value
      of the Length field MUST equal to 16.  The Value field is a 16-
      octet-long IPv6 Address field.

4.2.2.  Theory of Operation of Location TLV

   The Session-Reflector that received an extended STAMP packet with the
   Location TLV MUST include the Location TLV of the size equal to the
   size of Location TLV in the received packet in the reflected packet.

Mirsky, et al.            Expires May 19, 2021                 [Page 14]
Internet-Draft              STAMP Extensions               November 2020

   Based on the local policy, the Session-Reflector MAY leave some
   fields unreported by filling them with zeroes.  An implementation of
   the stateful Session-Reflector MUST provide control for managing such
   policies.

   A Session-Sender MAY include the Source MAC Address sub-TLV in the
   Location TLV.  If the Session-Reflector receives the Location TLV
   that includes the Source MAC Address sub-TLV, it MUST include the
   Source EUI-48 Address sub-TLV if the source MAC address of the
   received extended test packet is in EUI-48 format.  And the Session-
   Reflector MUST copy the value of the source MAC address in the EUI-48
   field.  Otherwise, the Session-Reflector MUST use the Source EUI-64
   Address sub-TLV and MUST copy the value of the Source MAC address
   from the received packet into the EUI-64 field.  If the received
   extended STAMP test packet does not have the Source MAC address, the
   Session-Reflector MUST zero the EUI-64 field before transmitting the
   reflected packet.

   A Session-Sender MAY include the Destination IP Address sub-TLV in
   the Location TLV.  If the Session-Reflector receives the Location TLV
   that includes the Destination IP Address sub-TLV, it MUST include the
   Destination IPv4 Address sub-TLV if the source IP address of the
   received extended test packet is of IPv4 address family.  And the
   Session-Reflector MUST copy the value of the destination IP address
   in the IPv4 Address field.  Otherwise, the Session-Reflector MUST use
   the Destination IPv6 Address sub-TLV and MUST copy the value of the
   destination IP address from the received packet into the IPv6 Address
   field.

   A Session-Sender MAY include the Source IP Address sub-TLV in the
   Location TLV.  If the Session-Reflector receives the Location TLV
   that includes the Source IP Address sub-TLV, it MUST include the
   Source IPv4 Address sub-TLV if the source IP address of the received
   extended test packet is of IPv4 address family.  And the Session-
   Reflector MUST copy the value of the source IP address in the IPv4
   Address field.  Otherwise, the Session-Reflector MUST use the Source
   IPv6 Address sub-TLV and MUST copy the value of the source IP address
   from the received packet into the IPv6 Address field.

   The Location TLV MAY be used to determine the last-hop IP addresses,
   ports, and last-hop MAC address for  STAMP packets.  The MAC address
   can indicate a path switch on the last hop.  The IP addresses and UDP
   ports will indicate if there is a NAT router on the path.  It allows
   the Session-Sender to identify the IP address of the Session-
   Reflector behind the NAT, and detect changes in the NAT mapping that
   could cause sending the STAMP packets to the wrong Session-Reflector.

4.3.  Timestamp Information TLV

   The STAMP Session-Sender MAY include the Timestamp Information TLV to
   request information from the Session-Reflector.  The Session-Sender
   MUST NOT fill any information fields except for STAMP TLV Flags,
   Type, and Length.  All other fields MUST be filled with zeroes.  The
   Session-Reflector MUST validate the Length value of the TLV.  If the
   value of the Length field is invalid, the Session-Reflector follows
   the procedure defined in Section 4 for a malformed TLV.

      presented in Figure 6.

   o  Timestamp Information Type - is a one-octet-long field, value TBA3
      allocated by IANA Section 5.1.

   o  Length - two-octet-long field, set equal to the length of the
      Value field in octets (Figure 5).

   o  Sync Src In - one-octet-long field that characterizes the source
      of clock synchronization at the ingress of a Session-Reflector.
      There are several methods to synchronize the clock, e.g., Network
      Time Protocol (NTP) [RFC5905].  The value is one of those listed
      in Table 7.

   o  Timestamp In - one-octet-long field that characterizes the method
      by which the ingress of the Session-Reflector obtained the
      timestamp T2.  A timestamp may be obtained with hardware
      assistance, via software API from a local wall clock, or from a
      remote clock (the latter is referred to as "control plane").  The
      value is one of those listed in Table 9.

   o  Sync Src Out - one-octet-long field that characterizes the source
      of clock synchronization at the egress of the Session-Reflector.
      The value is one of those listed in Table 7.

   o  Timestamp Out - one-octet-long field that characterizes the method
      by which the egress of the Session-Reflector obtained the
      timestamp T3.  The value is one of those listed in Table 9.

   o  Optional sub-TLVs - optional variable-length field.

4.4.  Class of Service TLV

   The STAMP Session-Sender MAY include a Class of Service (CoS) TLV in
   the STAMP test packet.  The format of the CoS TLV is presented in
   Figure 12.

      presented in Figure 6.

   o  CoS (Class of Service) Type - is a one-octet-long field, value
      TBA4 allocated by IANA Section 5.1.

   o  Length - two-octet-long field, set equal to the value 4.

   o  DSCP1 - The Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) intended by
      the Session-Sender to be used as the DSCP value of the reflected
      test packet.

   o  DSCP2 - The received value in the DSCP field at the ingress of the
      Session-Reflector.

   o  ECN - The received value in the ECN field at the ingress of the
      Session-Reflector.

   o  RP (Reverse Path) - is a two-bit-long field.  A Session-Sender
      MUST set the value of the RP field to 0 on transmission.

   o  Reserved - 16-bit-long field, MUST be zeroed on transmission and
      ignored on receipt.

   A STAMP Session-Reflector that receives a test packet with the CoS
   TLV MUST include the CoS TLV in the reflected test packet.  Also, the
   Session-Reflector MUST copy the value of the DSCP and ECN fields of
   the IP header of the received STAMP test packet into the DSCP2 field
   in the reflected test packet.  Finally, the Session-Reflector MUST
   use the local policy to verify whether the CoS corresponding to the
   value of the DSCP1 field is permitted in the domain.  If it is, the
   Session-Reflectorset MUST set the DSCP field's value in the IP header
   of the reflected test packet equal to the value of the DSCP1 field of
   the received test packet.  Otherwise, the Session-Reflector MUST use
   the DSCP value of the received STAMP packet and set the value of the
   RP field to 1.  Upon receiving the reflected packet, if the value of
   the RP field is 0, the Session-Sender will save the DSCP and ECN
   values for analysis of the CoS in the reverse direction.  If the
   value of the RP field in the received reflected packet is 1, only CoS
   in the forward direction can be analyzed.

   Re-mapping of CoS can be used to provide multiple services (e,g., 2G,
   3G, LTE in mobile backhaul networks) over the same network.  But if
   it is misconfigured, then it is often difficult to diagnose the root
   cause of excessive packet drops of higher-level service while packet
   drops for lower service packets are at a normal level.  Using a CoS
   TLV in STAMP testing helps to troubleshoot the existing problem and
   also verify whether DiffServ policies are processing CoS as required
   by the configuration.

4.5.  Direct Measurement TLV

   The Direct Measurement TLV enables collection of the number of in-
   profile packets, i.e., packets that form a specific data flow, that
   had been transmitted and received by the Session-Sender and Session-
   Reflector, respectively.  The definition of "in-profile packet" is
   outside the scope of this document and is left to the test operators
   to determine.

      in octets.  The Length field value MUST equal 12 octets.

   o  Session-Sender Tx counter (S_TxC) is a four-octet-long field.  The

      transmitted in-profile packets.

   o  Session-Reflector Rx counter (R_RxC) is a four-octet-long field.
      MUST be zeroed by the Session-Sender on transmit and ignored by
      the Session-Reflector on receipt.  The Session-Reflector MUST fill
      it with the value of in-profile packets received.

   o  Session-Reflector Tx counter (R_TxC) is a four-octet-long field.

      value of the transmitted in-profile packets.

   A Session-Sender MAY include the Direct Measurement TLV in a STAMP
   test packet.  If the received STAMP test packet includes the Direct
   Measurement TLV, the Session-Reflector MUST include it in the
   reflected test packet.  The Session-Reflector MUST copy the value
   from the S_TxC field of the received test packet into the same field
   of the reflected packet before its transmission.

4.6.  Access Report TLV

   A STAMP Session-Sender MAY include an Access Report TLV (Figure 14)
   to indicate changes to the access network status to the Session-
   Reflector.  The definition of an access network is outside the scope
   of this document.

   o  STAMP TLV Flags - is an eight-bit-long field.  Its format
      presented in Figure 6.

   o  Access Report Type - is a one-octet-long field, value TBA6
      allocated by IANA Section 5.1.

   o  Length - two-octet-long field, set equal to the value 4.

   o  ID (Access ID) - four-bit-long field that identifies the access
      network, e.g., 3GPP (Radio Access Technologies specified by 3GPP)
      or Non-3GPP (accesses that are not specified by 3GPP) [TS23501].
      The value is one of those listed below:

      *  1 - 3GPP Network

      *  2 - Non-3GPP Network

      All other values are invalid and the TLV that contains it MUST be
      discarded.

   o  Resv - four-bit-long field, MUST be zeroed on transmission and
      ignored on receipt.

   o  Return Code - one-octet-long field that identifies the report
      signal, e.g., available or unavailable.  The value is supplied to
      the STAMP end-point through some mechanism that is outside the
      scope of this document.  The value is one of those listed in
      Section 5.6.

   o  Reserved - two-octet-long field, MUST be zeroed on transmission
      and ignored on receipt.

   The STAMP Session-Sender that includes the Access Report TLV sets the
   value of the Access ID field according to the type of access network
   it reports on.  Also, the Session-Sender sets the value of the Return
   Code field to reflect the operational state of the access network.
   The mechanism to determine the state of the access network is outside
   the scope of this specification.  A STAMP Session-Reflector that
   received the test packet with the Access Report TLV MUST include the
   Access Report TLV in the reflected test packet.  The Session-
   Reflector MUST set the value of the Access ID and Return Code fields
   equal to the values of the corresponding fields from the test packet
   it has received.

   The Session-Sender MUST also arm a retransmission timer after sending
   a test packet that includes the Access Report TLV.  This timer MUST
   be disarmed upon reception of the reflected STAMP test packet that
   includes the Access Report TLV.  In the event the timer expires
   before such a packet is received, the Session-Sender MUST retransmit
   the STAMP test packet that contains the Access Report TLV.  This
   retransmission SHOULD be repeated up to four times before the
   procedure is aborted.  Setting the value for the retransmission timer
   is based on local policies and network environment.  The default
   value of the retransmission timer for the Access Report TLV SHOULD be
   three seconds.  An implementation MUST provide control of the
   retransmission timer value and the number of retransmissions.

   The Access Report TLV is used by the Performance Measurement Function
   (PMF) components of the Access Steering, Switching and Splitting
   feature for 5G networks [TS23501].  The PMF component in the User
   Equipment acts as the STAMP Session-Sender, and the PMF component in
   the User Plane Function acts as the STAMP Session-Reflector.

4.7.  Follow-up Telemetry TLV

   A Session-Reflector might be able to put in the Timestamp field only
   an "SW Local" (see Table 9) timestamp.  But the hosting system might
   provide a timestamp closer to the start of the actual packet
   transmission even though it is not possible to deliver the
   information to the Session-Sender in time for the packet itself.
   This timestamp might nevertheless be important for the Session-
   Sender, as it improves the accuracy of measuring network delay by
   minimizing the impact of egress queuing delays on the measurement.

   A STAMP Session-Sender MAY include the Follow-up Telemetry TLV to
   request information from the Session-Reflector.  The Session-Sender
   MUST set the Follow-up Telemetry Type and Length fields to their

Internet-Draft              STAMP Extensions               November 2020

   appropriate values.  The Sequence Number and Timestamp fields MUST be
   zeroed on transmission by the Session-Sender and ignored by the
   Session-Reflector upon receipt of the STAMP test packet that includes
   the Follow-up Telemetry TLV.  The Session-Reflector MUST validate the
   Length value of the STAMP test packet.  If the value of the Length
   field is invalid, the Session-Reflector MUST zero the Sequence Number
   and Timestamp fields and set the M flag in the STAMP TLV Flags field
   in the reflected packet.  If the Session-Reflector is in stateless
   mode (defined in Section 4.2 [RFC8762]), it MUST zero the Sequence
   Number and Timestamp fields.

      (defined in Section 4.2 [RFC8762]), it is the Session-Reflector's
      Sequence Number of the previous reflected packet.

   o  Follow-up Timestamp - eight-octet-long field, with the format
      indicated by the Z flag of the Error Estimate field of the STAMP
      base packet, which is contained in this reflected test packet
      transmitted by a Session-Reflector, as described in Section 4.2.1
      [RFC8762].  It carries the timestamp when the reflected packet
      with the specified sequence number was sent.

   o  Timestamp M(ode) - one-octet-long field that characterizes the
      method by which the entity that transmits a reflected STAMP packet
      obtained the Follow-up Timestamp.  The value is one of those
      listed in Table 9.

   o  Reserved - three-octet-long field.  Its value MUST be zeroed on
      transmission and ignored on receipt.

4.8.  HMAC TLV

   The STAMP authenticated mode protects the integrity of data collected
   in the STAMP base packet.  STAMP extensions are designed to provide
   valuable information about the condition of a network, and protecting
   the integrity of that data is also essential.  All authenticated
   STAMP base packets (per Section 4.2.2 and Section 4.3.2 [RFC8762])
   compatible with this specification MUST additionally authenticate the
   option TLVs by including the keyed Hashed Message Authentication Code
   (HMAC) TLV, with the sole exception of when there is only one TLV
   present, and it is the Extended Padding TLV.  The HMAC TLV MUST
   follow all TLVs included in a STAMP test packet, except for the Extra
   Padding TLV.  If the HMAC TLV appears in any other position in a
   STAMP extended test packet, then the situation MUST be processed as
   HMAC verification failure, as defined in this section, further below.
   The HMAC TLV MAY be used to protect the integrity of STAMP extensions
   in STAMP unauthenticated mode.  An implementation of STAMP extensions
   MUST provide controls to enable the integrity protection of STAMP
   extensions in STAMP unauthenticated mode.

                            Figure 16: HMAC TLV

   where fields are defined as follows:

   o  STAMP TLV Flags - is an eight-bit-long field.  Its format is
      presented in Figure 6.

   o  HMAC Type - is a one-octet-long field, value TBA8 allocated by
      IANA Section 5.1.

Internet-Draft              STAMP Extensions               November 2020

   o  Length - two-octet-long field, set equal to 16 octets.

   o  HMAC - is a 16-octet-long field that carries HMAC digest of the
      text of all preceding TLVs.

   As defined in [RFC8762], STAMP uses HMAC-SHA-256 truncated to 128
   bits ([RFC4868]).  All considerations regarding using the key listed
   in Section 4.4 of [RFC8762] are fully applicable to the use of the
   HMAC TLV.  Key management and the mechanisms to distribute the HMAC
   key are outside the scope of this specification.  HMAC TLV is
   anticipated to track updates in the base STAMP protocol [RFC8762],
   including the use of more advanced cryptographic algorithms.  HMAC is
   calculated as defined in [RFC2104] over text as the concatenation of
   the Sequence Number field of the base STAMP packet and all preceding
   TLVs.  The digest then MUST be truncated to 128 bits and written into
   the HMAC field.  If the HMAC TLV is present in the extended STAMP
   test packet, e.g., in the authenticated mode, HMAC MUST be verified
   before using any data in the included STAMP TLVs.  If HMAC
   verification by the Session-Reflector fails, then the Session-
   Reflector MUST stop processing the received extended STAMP test
   packet.  The Session-Reflector MUST copy the TLVs from the received
   STAMP test packet into the reflected packet.  The Session-Reflector
   MUST set the I flag in each TLV copied over into the reflected packet
   to 1 before transmitting the reflected test packet.  If the Session-
   Sender receives the extended STAMP test packet with I flag set to 1,
   then the Session-Sender MUST stop processing TLVs in the reflected
   test packet.  If HMAC verification by the Session-Sender fails, then
   the Session-Sender MUST stop processing TLVs in the reflected
   extended STAMP packet.

6.  Security Considerations

   This document defines extensions to STAMP [RFC8762] and inherits all
   the security considerations applicable to the base protocol.
   Additionally, the HMAC TLV is defined in this document.  Though the
   HMAC TLV protects the integrity of STAMP extensions; it does not
   protect against a replay attack.  The use of HMAC TLV is discussed in
   detail in Section 4.8.

   To protect against a malformed TLV an implementation of a Session-
   Sender and Session-Reflector MUST:

   o  check the setting of the M flag;

   o  validate the Length field value.

   As this specification defined the mechanism to test DSCP mapping,
   this document inherits all the security considerations discussed in
   [RFC2474].  Monitoring and optional control of DSCP using the CoS TLV
   may be used across the Internet so that the Session-Sender and the
   Session-Reflector are located in domains that use different CoS
   profiles.  Thus, it is essential that an operator verifies the set of
   CoS values that are used in the Session-Reflector's domain.  Also, an
   implementation of a Session-Reflector SHOULD support a local policy
   to confirm whether the value sent by the Session-Sender can be used
   as the value of the DSCP field.  Section 4.4 defines the use of that
   local policy.
