LDAP Schema for supporting XMPP in White Pages
draft-kille-ldap-xmpp-schema-02
Abstract
The Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP) identifies
users by use of JID (Jabber IDs). Lightweight Directory Access
Protocol (LDAP) enables provision of a white pages service with
schema relating to users and support for internet protocols. This
specification defines schema to enable XMPP JIDs to be associated
with objects in an LDAP directory so that this information can be
used with white pages applications.

1. Introduction
Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP) [RFC6120]
identifies users by use of JID (Jabber IDs). Lightweight Directory
Access Protocol (LDAP) [RFC4510] enables provision of a white pages
service with schema relating to users and support for internet
protocols defined in [RFC4519]. This specification defines schema to
enable XMPP JIDs to be associated with LDAP directory objects so that
this information can be used with white pages applications.
The LDAP schema for storing JIDs is defined to enable JIDs to be
associated with any object stored in the directory. This is done by
associating the new JID Attribute with a new Auxiliary Object Class
(JIDObject).
2. Conventions Used in This Document
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. Schema Definition
This section defines the schema used to store JIDs in the directory.
3.1. Object Class
This section defines a new Auxiliary Object Class (JIDObject) which
may be associated with any primary Object Class.

( TBA.1 NAME 'JIDObject'
AUXILIARY
MAY jid )
3.2. Attribute
This section defines the JID attribute referenced by the JIDObject
Auxiliary Object Class. The syntax of the JID attribute MUST follow
the rules of [RFC7622]. The JID stored MUST be a bare JID and not a
full JID. Note that the LDAP directory server is NOT expected to
enforce this syntax. The syntax rules are for LDAP clients setting
this attribute.
( TBA.2 NAME 'jid'
EQUALITY caseIgnoreMatch
SUBSTR caseIgnoreSubstringsMatch
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15 )
1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15 refers to the Directory String syntax
defined in [RFC4517].
4. IANA Considerations
The following registrations are requested in the LDAP Registry
<https://www.iana.org/assignments/ldap-parameters/ldap-
parameters.xhtml> in line with BP 64 RFC 4520. This will lead to
assignment of the two Object Identifiers, referenced as TBA.1 and
TBA.2 in this draft.

5. Security Considerations
This schema enables publishing for XMPP JIDs, and care should be
taken to ensure that this information is not accessed
inappropriately.
