Introduction The LISP architecture and protocols [RFC9300] introduces two new numbering spaces, Endpoint Identifiers (EIDs) and Routing Locators (RLOCs) which are intended to replace most use of IP addresses on the Internet. To provide flexibility for current and future applications, these values can be encoded in LISP control messages using a general syntax that includes Address Family Identifier (AFI). The length of the value field, which represents the address encoding, is implicit in the type of address that follows. For AFI 17, a Distinguished Name can be encoded. A name can be a variable length field so the length cannot be determined solely from the AFI value 17. This draft defines a termination character, an 8-bit value of 0 to be used as a string terminator so the length can be determined. LISP Distinguished Names are useful when encoded either in EID- Records or RLOC-records in LISP control messages. As EIDs, they can be registered in the mapping system to find resources, services, or simply used as a self-documenting feature that accompany other address specific EIDs. As RLOCs, Distinguished Names, along with RLOC specific addresses and parameters, can be used as labels to identify equipment type, location, or any self-documenting string a registering device desires to convey. 2. Definition of Terms Address Family Identifier (AFI): a term used to describe an address encoding in a packet. An address family is currently defined for IPv4 or IPv6 addresses. See [IANA-ADDRESS-FAMILY-REGISTRY] for details on other types of information that can be AFI encoded. 3. Distinguished Name Format An AFI=17 Distinguished Name is encoded as: Farinacci Expires 6 February 2025 [Page 3] Internet-Draft LISP Distinguished Name Encoding August 2024 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | AFI = 17 | ASCII String ... | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | ... ASCII String | 0 | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ The string of characters are encoded in the ASCII character-set definition [RFC0020]. When Distinguished Names are encoded for EIDs, the EID Mask-Len length of the EIDs as they appear in EID-Records for all LISP control messages [RFC9301] is the length of the string in bits (including the null 0 octet). Where Distinguished Names are encoded anywhere else (i.e., nested in LCAF encodings [RFC8060]), then any length field is the length of the ASCII string including the null 0 octet in units of octets. 4. Mapping System Lookups for Distinguished Name EIDs Distinguished Name EID lookups MUST carry as an EID Mask-Len length equal to the length of the name string. This instructs the mapping system to do either an exact match or longest match lookup. If the Distinguished Name EID is registered with the same length as the length in a Map-Request, the Map-Server (when configured for proxy Map-Replying) returns an exact match lookup with the same EID Mask-Len length. If a less specific name is registered, then the Map-Server returns the registered name with the registered EID Mask- Len length. For example, if the registered EID name is "ietf" with EID Mask-Len of 40 bits (the length of string "ietf" plus the null octet is 5 octets), and a Map-Request is received for EID name "ietf.lisp" with an EID Mask-Len of 80 bits, the Map-Server will return EID "ietf" with length of 40 bits. 5. Example Use-Cases This section identifies three specific use-cases examples for the Distinguished Name format. Two are used for an EID encoding and one for an RLOC-record encoding. When storing public keys in the mapping system, as in [I-D.ietf-lisp-ecdsa-auth], a well-known format for a public-key hash can be encoded as a Distinguished Name. When street location to GPS coordinate mappings exist in the mapping system, as Farinacci Expires 6 February 2025 [Page 4] Internet-Draft LISP Distinguished Name Encoding August 2024 in [I-D.ietf-lisp-geo], the street location can be a free form ASCII representation (with whitespace characters) encoded as a Distinguished Name. An RLOC that describes an Ingress or Egress Tunnel Router (xTR) behind a NAT device can be identified by its router name, as in [I-D.farinacci-lisp-lispers-net-nat]. In this case, Distinguished Name encoding is used in NAT Info-Request messages after the EID-prefix field of the message. 6. Name Collision Considerations When a Distinguished Name encoding is used to format an EID, the uniqueness and allocation concerns are no different than registering IPv4 or IPv6 EIDs to the mapping system. See [RFC9301] for more details. Also, the use-case documents specified in Section 5 of this specification provide allocation recommendations for their specific uses. It is RECOMMENDED that each use-case register their Distinguished Names with a unique Instance-ID. For any use-cases which require different uses for Distinguish Names within an Instance-ID MUST define their own Instance-ID and structure syntax for the name registered to the Mapping System. See the encoding procedures in [I-D.ietf-lisp-vpn] for an example. 7. Security Considerations There are no security considerations. 8. IANA Considerations The code-point values in this specification are already allocated in [IANA-ADDRESS-FAMILY-REGISTRY]. 9. Sample LISP Distinguished Name (DN) Deployment Experience Practical implementations of the LISP Distinguished Name specification have been running in production networks for some time. The following sections provide some examples of its usage and lessons gathered out of this experience. 9.1. DNs to Advertise Specific Device Roles or Functions In a practical implementation of [I-D.ietf-lisp-site-external-connectivity] on LISP deployments, routers running as Proxy Egress Tunnel Routers (Proxy-ETRs) register their role with the Mapping System in order to attract traffic destined for external networks. Practical implementations of this functionality make use of a Distinguished Name as an EID to identify Farinacci Expires 6 February 2025 [Page 5] Internet-Draft LISP Distinguished Name Encoding August 2024 the Proxy-ETR role in a Map-Registration. In this case all Proxy-ETRs supporting this function register a common Distinguished Name together with their own offered locator. The Mapping-System aggregates the locators received from all Proxy- ETRs as a common locator-set that is associated with this DN EID. The Distinguished Name in this case serves as a common reference EID that can be requested (or subscribed as per [RFC9437]) to dynamically gather this Proxy-ETR list as specified in the LISP Site External Connectivity document. The use of a Distinguished Name in this case provides descriptive information about the role being registered and allows the Mapping System to form locator-sets associated to specific role. These locator-sets can be distributed on-demand based on using the shared DN as EID. It also allows the network admin and the Mapping System to selectively choose what roles and functions can be registered and distributed to the rest of the participants in the network. 9.2. DNs to Drive xTR On-Boarding Procedures Following the LISP reliable transport [I-D.ietf-lisp-map-server-reliable-transport], ETRs that plan to switch to using a reliable transport to hold registrations first need to start with traditional UDP registrations. The UDP registration allows the Map-Server to perform basic authentication of the ETR and create the necessary state to permit the reliable transport session to be established (e.g., establish a passive open on TCP port 4342 and add the ETR RLOC to the list allowed to establish a session). In the basic implementation of this process, the ETRs need to wait until local mappings are available and ready to be registered with the Mapping System. Furthermore, when the mapping system is distributed, the ETR requires to have one specific mapping ready to be registered with each one of the relevant Map-Servers. This process may delay the onboarding of ETRs with the Mapping System so that they can switch to using a reliable transport. This can also lead to generating unnecessary signaling as a reaction to certain triggers like local port flaps and device failures. The use of dedicated name registrations allows driving this initial ETR on-boarding on the Mapping System as a deterministic process that does not depend on the availability of other mappings. It also provides more stability to the reliable transport session to survive through transient events. Farinacci Expires 6 February 2025 [Page 6] Internet-Draft LISP Distinguished Name Encoding August 2024 In practice, LISP deployments use dedicated Distinguished Names that are registered as soon as xTRs come online with all the necessary Map-Servers in the Mapping System. The mapping with the dedicated DN together with the RLOCs of each Egress Tunnel Router (ETR) in the locator-set is used to drive the initial UDP registration and also to keep the reliable transport state stable through network condition changes. On the Map-Server, these DN registrations facilitate setting up the necessary state to onboard new ETRs rapidly and in a more deterministic manner. 9.3. DNs for NAT-Traversal The open source lispers.net NAT-Traversal implementation [I-D.farinacci-lisp-lispers-net-nat] has had 10 years of deployment experience using Distinguished Names for documenting xTRs versus Re- encapsulating Tunnel Router (RTRs) as they appear in an locator-set. 9.4. DNs for Self-Documenting RLOC Names The open source lispers.net implementation has had 10 years of self- documenting RLOC names in production and pilot environments. The RLOC name is encoded with the RLOC address in Distinguished Name format. 9.5. DNs used as EID Names The open source lispers.net implementation has had 10 years of deployment experience allowing xTRs to register EIDs as Distinguished Names. The LISP Mapping System can be used as a DNS proxy for Name- to-EID-address or Name-to-RLOC-address mappings. The implementation also supports Name-to-Public-Key mappings to provide key management features in [I-D.ietf-lisp-ecdsa-auth]. 10. References 10.1.
