lpwan Working Group A. Minaburo Internet-Draft Acklio Intended status: Informational L. Toutain Expires: September 11, 2017 Institut MINES TELECOM ; IMT Atlantique March 10, 2017 LPWAN Static Context Header Compression (SCHC) for CoAP draft-ietf-lpwan-coap-static-context-hc-01 Abstract This draft discusses the way SCHC header compression can be applied to CoAP headers in an LPWAN flow regarding the generated traffic. CoAP protocol differs from IPv6 and UDP protocols because the CoAP Header has a flexible header due to variable options. Another important difference is the asymmetric format in the header information used in the request and the response packets. This draft shows that the Client and the Server do not uses the same fields and how the SCHC header compression can be used.

Introduction [I-D.toutain-lpwan-ipv6-static-context-hc] defines a header compression mechanism for LPWAN network based on a static context. Where the context is said static since the element values composing the context are not learned during the packet exchanges but are previously defined. The context(s) is(are) known by both ends before transmission. A context is composed of a set of rules (contexts) that are referenced by Rule IDs (identifiers). A rule describes the header fields with some associated Target Values (TV). A Matching Operator (MO) is associated to each header field description. The rule is selected if all the MOs fit the TVs. In that case, a Compression Decompression Function (CDF) associated to each field defines the link between the compressed and decompressed value for each of the header fields. This draft discusses the way SCHC can be applied to CoAP headers, how to extend MOs to match a specific element when several fields of the same type are presented in the header. It also introduces the notion of bidirectional or unidirectional (upstream and downstream) fields. 2. CoAP Compressing CoAP [RFC7252] is an implementation of the REST architecture for constrained devices. Gateway between CoAP and HTTP can be easily built since both protocols uses the same address space (URL), caching mechanisms and methods. Nevertheless, if limited, the size of a CoAP header may be too large for LPWAN constraints and some compression may be needed to reduce the header size. CoAP compression is not straightforward. Some differences between IPv6/UDP and CoAP can be highlighted. CoAP differs from IPv6 and UDP protocols in the following aspects: o IPv6 and UDP are symmetrical protocols. The same fields are found in the request and in the response, only position in the header may change (e.g. source and destination fields). A CoAP request is different from an response. For example, the URI-path option is mandatory in the request and is not found in the response. Minaburo & Toutain Expires September 11, 2017 [Page 2] Internet-Draft LPWAN CoAP compression March 2017 o CoAP also obeys to the client/server paradigm and the compression rate can be different if the request is issued from a LPWAN node or from an non LPWAN device. For instance a Thing (ES) aware of LPWAN constraints can generate a 1 byte token, but a regular CoAP cleint will certainly send a larger token to the Thing. o In IPv6 and UDP header fields have a fixed size. In CoAP, Token size may vary from 0 to 8 bytes, length is given by a field in the header. More systematically, the CoAP options are described using the Type-Length-Value. When applying SCHC header compression, the token size is not known at the rule creation, the sender and the receiver must agree on its compressed size. o The options type in CoAP is not defined with the same value. The Delta TLV coding makes that the type is not independent of previous option and may vary regarding the options contained in the header. 2.1. CoAP behavior A LPWAN node can either be a client or a server and sometimes both. In the client mode, the LPWAN node sends request to a server and expects an answer or acknowledgements. Acknowledgements can be at 2 different levels: o In the transport level, a CON message is acknowledged by an ACK message. A NON confirmable message is not acknowledged at all. o In REST level, a REST request is acknowledged by an "error" code. The [RFC7967] defines an option to limit the number of acknowledgements. Note that acknowledgement can be optimized and a REST level acknowledgement can be used as a transport level acknowledgement. 2.2. CoAP protocol analysis CoAP header format defines the following fields: o version (2 bits): this field can be elided during the SCHC compresssion o type (2 bits). It defines the type of the transport messages, 4 values are defined, regarding the type of exchange. If only NON messages are sent or CON/ACK messages, this field can be reduced to 0 or 1 bit. Minaburo & Toutain Expires September 11, 2017 [Page 3] Internet-Draft LPWAN CoAP compression March 2017 o token length (4 bits). The standard allows up to 8 bytes for a token. If a fixed token size is chosen, then this field can be elided. If some variation in length are needed then 1 or 2 bits could be enough for most of LPWAN applications. o code (8 bits). This field codes the request and the response values. In CoAP these values are represented in a more compact way then the coding used in HTTP, but the coding is not optimal. o message id (16 bits). This value of this header field is used to acknowledge CON frames. The size of this field is computed to allow the anticipation (how many frames can be sent without acknowledgement). When a value is used, the [RFC7252] defines the time before it can be reused without ambiguities. This size defined may be too large for a LPWAN node sending or receiving few messages a day. o Token (0 to 8 bytes). Token header field is used to identify active flows. Regarding the usage for LPWAN (stability in time and limited number), a short token (1 Byte or less) can be enough. o options are coded using delta-TLV. The delta-T depends on previous values, length is encoded inside the option. The [RFC7252] distinguishes repeatable options that can appear several times in the header. Among them we can distinguish: * list options which appear several time in the header but are exclusive such as the Accept option. * cumulative options which appear several times in the header but are part of a more generic value such as Uri-Path and Uri- Query. In that case, some elements may not change during the Thing lifetime and other may change at each request. For instance CoMi [I-D.ietf-core-comi] defines the following path /c/X6?k="eth0", where the first path element "c" does not change, the second element can vary over time with a different length (it represents the base64 enconding of a SID) and the query string can also vary over time. For a given flow some value options are stable through time. Observe, ETag, If-Match, If-None-Match and Size varies in each message. The CoAP protocol must not be altered by the compression/ decompression phase, but if no semantic is attributed to a value, it may be changed during this phase. For instance, the compression phase may reduce the size of a token but must maintain its unicity. The decompressor will not be able to restore the original value but Minaburo & Toutain Expires September 11, 2017 [Page 4] Internet-Draft LPWAN CoAP compression March 2017 the behavior will remain the same. If no special semantic is assigned to the token, this will be transparent. If a special semantic is assigned to the token, its compression may not be possible. 3. SCHC rules for CoAP header compression This draft refines the rules definition by adding the direction of the message, from the Thing point of view (uplink, downlink or bidirectional). It does not introduce new Machting Operator or new Compression Decompression Function, but add some possibility to check one particular element when several of them are present at the same time. A rule can contain CoAP and IPv6/UDP entries. In that case, IPv6/UDP entries are tagged bidirectional. 3.1. Directional Rules By default, an entry in a rule is bidirectional which means that it can be applied either on the uplink or downlink headers. By specifying the direction, the LC will take into account the specific field only if the direction match. If the Thing is a client, the URI-Path option is only present on request and not on the response. Therefore, the exact matching principle to select a rule cannot apply. Some options are marked unidirectional, the value (uplink or downlink) depends of the scenario. A Uri-Path option will be marked uplink if the Thing acts as a client and downlink if the Thing acts as a server. If the Thing acts both as client and server, two different rules will be defined. 3.2. Matching Operator The Matching Operator behavior has not changed, but the value must take a position value, if the entry is repeated : FID TV MO CDF URI-Path foo equal 1 not-sent URI-Path bar equal 2 not-sent Figure 1: Position entry. For instance, the rule Figure 1 matches with /foo/bar, but not /bar/ foo. Minaburo & Toutain Expires September 11, 2017 [Page 5] Internet-Draft LPWAN CoAP compression March 2017 The position is added after the natural argument of the MO, for example MSB (4,3) indicates a most significant bit matching of 4 bits in a field located in position 3. 3.3. Compressed field length When the length is not clearly indicated in the rule, the value length must be sent with the field data, which means for CoAP to send directly the CoAP option where the delta-T is set to 0. For the CoMi path /c/X6?k="eth0" the rule can be set to: FID TV MO CDF URI-Path c equal 1 not-sent URI-Path ignore 2 value-sent URI-Query k= MSB (16, 1) value-sent Figure 2: CoMi URI compression Figure 2 shows the parsing and the compression of the URI. where c is not sent. The second element is sent with the length (i.e. 0x02 X 6) followed by the query option (i.e. 0x08 k="eth0"). [[NOTE we don't process URI with a multiple number of path element ??]]. 4. Application to CoAP header fields This section lists the different CoAP header fields and how they can be compressed. 4.1. CoAP version field This field is bidirectional. This field contains always the same value, therefore the TV may be 1, the MO is set to "equal" and the CDF is set to "not-sent" 4.2. CoAP type field This field is bidirectional or undirectional. Several strategies can be applied to this field regarding the values used: Minaburo & Toutain Expires September 11, 2017 [Page 6] Internet-Draft LPWAN CoAP compression March 2017 o if only one type is sent, for example NON message, its transmission can be avoided. TV is set to the value, MO is set to "equal" and CDF is set to "not-sent". o if two values are sent, for example CON and ACK and RST is not used, this field can be reduced to one bit. TV is set to a matching value {CON: 0, ACK: 1}, MO is set to match-mapping and CDF is set to mapping-sent. o It is also possible avoid transmission of this field by marking it unidirectional. In one direction, the TV is set to CON, MO is set to "equal" and CDF is set to "not-sent". On the other direction, the TV is set to ACK, the MO is set to "equal" and the CDF is set to "not-sent". o Otherwise TV is not set, MO is set to "ignore" and CDF is set to "value-sent". 4.3. CoAP token length field This field is bi-directional. Several strategies can be applied to this field regarding the values: o no token or a wellknown length, the transmission can be avoided. TV is set to the length, the MO is set to "equal" and CDF is set to "not-sent" o The length is variable from one message to another. TV is not set, MO is set to "ignore" and CDF is set to "value-sent". The size of the sent value must be known by ends. The size may be 4 bits. The receiver must take into account this value to retrieve the token. A CoAP proxy may be used before the compression to reduce the field size. 4.4. CoAP code field This field is unidirectional. The client and the server do not use the same values. The CoAP code field defines a tricky way to ensure compatibility with HTTP values. Nevertheless only 21 values are defined by [RFC7252] compared to the 255 possible values. So, it could efficiently be coded on 5 bits. The number of code may vary over time, some new codes may be introduced or some applications use a limited number of values.

The field can be treated differently in upstream than in downstream. If the Thing is a client an entry can be set on the uplink message with a code matching for 0.0X values and another for downlink values for Y.ZZ codes. It is the opposite if the thing is a server. Minaburo & Toutain Expires September 11, 2017 [Page 8] Internet-Draft LPWAN CoAP compression March 2017 4.5. CoAP Message ID field This field is bidirectional. Message ID is used for two purposes: o To acknowledge a CON message with an ACK. o To avoid duplicate messages. In LPWAN, since a message can be received by several radio gateway, some LPWAN technologies include a sequence number in L2 to avoid duplicate frames. Therefore if the message does not need to be acknowledged (NON or RST message), the Message ID field can be avoided. In that case TV is not set, MO is set to ignore and CDF is set to "not-sent". The decompressor can generate a number. [[Note; check id this field is not used by OSCOAP .]] To optimize information sent on the LPWAN, shorter values may be used during the exchange, but Message ID values generated a common CoAP implementation will not take into account this limitation. Before the compression, a proxy may be needed to reduce the size. In that case, the TV is set to 0x0000, MO is set to "MSB(l)" and CDF is set to "LSB(16-l)", where "l" is the size of the compressed header. Otherwise if no compression is needed the TV is not set, MO is set to ignore and CDF is set to "not-sent". 4.6. CoAP Token field This field is bi-directional. Token is used to identify transactions and varies from one transaction to another. Therefore, it is usually necessary to send the value of the token field on the LPWAN network. The optimization will occur by using small values. Common CoAP implementations may generate large tokens, even if shorter tokens could be used regarding the LPWAN characteristics. A proxy may be needed to reduce the size of the token before compression. Otherwise the TV is not set, the MO is set to ignore and CDF is set to "value-sent". The decompression may know the length of the token field from the token length field. Minaburo & Toutain Expires September 11, 2017 [Page 9] Internet-Draft LPWAN CoAP compression March 2017 4.7. CoAP option Content-format field. This field is unidirectional and must not be set to bidirectional in a rule entry. It is used only by the server to inform the client about of the payload type and is never found in client requests. If the value is known by both sides, the TV contains that value and MO is set to "equal" and the CDF is set to "not-sent". Otherwise the TV is not set, MO is set to "ignore" and CDF is set to "value-sent" A mapping list can also be used to reduce the size. 4.8. CoAP option Accept field This field is unidirectional and must not be set to bidirectional in a rule entry. It is used only by the client to inform of the possible payload type and is never found in server response. The number of accept options is not limited and can vary regarding the usage. To be selected a rule must contain the exact number about accept options with their positions. if the accept value must be sent, the TV contains that value, MO is set to "ignore x" where "x" is the accept option's position and CDF is set to value-sent. Since the value length is not known, it must be sent as a CoAP TLV with delta-T set to 0. Otherwise the TV is not set, MO is set to "equal x" where x is the accept option's position and CDF is set to "not-sent" [[note: it could be more liberal and do not provide the same order after decompression]] 4.9. CoAP option Max-Age field This field is unidirectional and must not be set to bidirectional in a rule entry. It is used only by the server to inform of the caching duration and is never found in client requests. If the duration is known by both ends, the TV is set with this duration, the MO is set to "equal" and the CDF is set to "not-sent". Otherwise the TV is not set, the MO is set to "ignore" and the CDF is set to "value-sent". Since the value length is not known, it must be sent as a CoAP TLV with delta-T set to 0. Minaburo & Toutain Expires September 11, 2017 [Page 10] Internet-Draft LPWAN CoAP compression March 2017 [[note: we can reduce (or create a new option) the unit to minute, second is small for LPWAN ]] 4.10. CoAP option Uri-Host and Uri-Port fields This fields are unidirectional and must not be set to bidirectional in a rule entry. They are used only by the client to access to a specific server and are never found in server response. For each option, if the value is known by both ends, the TV is set with this value, the MO is set to "equal" and the CDF is set to "not- sent". Otherwise the TV is not set, the MO is set to "ignore" and the CDF is set to "value-sent". Since the value length is not known, it must be sent as a CoAP TLV with delta-T set to 0. 4.11. CoAP option Uri-Path and Uri-Query fields This fields are unidirectional and must not be set to bidirectional in a rule entry. They are used only by the client to access to a specific resource and are never found in server response. Path and Query option may have different formats. Section 3.2 gives some examples. If the URI path as well as the query is composed of 2 or more elements, then the position must be set in the MO parameters. If a Path or Query element is stable over the time, then TV is set with its value, MO is set to "equal x" where x is the position in the Path or the Query and CDF is set to "not-sent". Otherwise if the value varies over time, TV is not set, MO is set to "ignore x" where x is the position in the Path or in the Query and CDF is set to "value-sent". Since the value length is not known, it must be sent as a CoAP TLV with deltaT set to 0. A Mapping list can be used to reduce size of variable Paths or Queries. In that case, to optimize the compression, several elements can be regrouped into a single entry. Numbering of elements do not change, MO comparison is set with the first element of the matching. For instance, the following Path /foo/bar/variable/stable can leads to the rule defined Figure 4. Minaburo & Toutain Expires September 11, 2017 [Page 11] Internet-Draft LPWAN CoAP compression March 2017 FID TV MO CDF URI-Path {"/foo/bar":1, match-mapping 1 mapping-sent "/bar/foo":2} URI-Path ignore 3 value-sent URI-Path stable equal 4 not-sent Figure 4: complex path example 4.12. CoAP option Proxy-URI and Proxy-Scheme fields These fields are unidirectional and must not be set to bidirectional in a rule entry. They are used only by the client to access to a specific resource and are never found in server response. If the field value must be sent, TV is not set, MO is set to "ignore" and CDF is set to "value-sent. A mapping can also be used. Otherwise the TV is set to the value, MO is set to "equal" and CDF is set to "not-sent" 4.13. CoAP option ETag, If-Match, If-None-Match, Location-Path and Location-Query fields These fields are unidirectional. These fields values cannot be stored in a rule entry. They must always be sent with the request. [[Can include OSCOAP Object security in that category ]] 5. Other RFCs 5.1. Block Block option should be avoided in LPWAN. The minimum size of 16 bytes can be incompatible with some LPWAN technologies. [[Note: do we recommand LPWAN fragmentation since the smallest value of 16 is too big?]] 5.2. Observe [RFC7641] defines the Observe option. The TV is not set, MO is set to "ignore" and the CDF is set to "value-sent". SCHC does not limit the maximum size for this option (3 bytes). To reduce the transmission size either the Thing implementation should limit the value increase or a proxy can be used limit the increase. Minaburo & Toutain Expires September 11, 2017 [Page 12] Internet-Draft LPWAN CoAP compression March 2017 Since RST message may be sent to inform a server that the client do not require Observe response, a rule must allow the transmission of this message. 5.3. No-Response [RFC7967] defines an No-Response option limiting the responses made by a server to a request. If the value is not by both ends, then TV is set to this value, MO is set to "equal" and CDF is set to "not- sent". Otherwise, if the value is changing over time, TV is not set, MO is set to "ignore" and CDF to "value-sent". A matching list can also be used to reduce the size. 6. Examples of CoAP header compression 6.1. Mandatory header with CON message In this first scenario, the LPWAN compressor receives from outside client a POST message, which is immediately acknowledged by the Thing. For this simple scenario, the rules are described Figure 5. rule id 1 +-------------+------+---------+-------------+-----+----------------+ | Field |TV |MO |CDF |dir | Sent | +=============+======+=========+=============+=====+================+ |CoAP version | 01 |equal |not-sent |bi | | |CoAP Type | |ignore |value-sent |bi |TT | |CoAP TKL | 0 |equal |not-sent |bi | | |CoAP Code | ML1 |match-map|matching-sent|bi | CC CCC | |CoAP MID | 0000 |MSB(7 ) |LSB(9) |bi | M-ID | |CoAP Uri-Path| path |equal 1 |not-sent |down | | +-------------+------+---------+-------------+-----+----------------+ Figure 5: CoAP Context to compress header without token The version and Token Length fields are elided. Code has shrunk to 5 bits using the matching list (as the one given Figure 3: 0.01 is value 0x01 and 2.05 is value 0x0c) Message-ID has shrunk to 9 bits to preserve alignment on byte boundary. The most significant bit must be set to 0 through a CoAP proxy. Uri-Path contains a single element indicated in the matching operator. Figure 6 shows the time diagram of the exchange. A LPWAN Application Server sends a CON message. Compression reduces the header sending only the Type, a mapped code and the least 9 significant bits of Message ID. The receiver decompresses the header. . Minaburo & Toutain Expires September 11, 2017 [Page 13] Internet-Draft LPWAN CoAP compression March 2017 The CON message is a request, therefore the LC process to a dynamic mapping. When the ES receives the ACK message, this will not initiate locally a message ID mapping since it is a response. The LC receives the ACK and uncompressed it to restore the original value. Dynamic Mapping context lifetime follows the same rules as message ID duration.
