1.  Introduction

   Domain Name Registries may operate in special modes within certain
   periods of time to facilitate registration of domain names.

   Along with the upcoming introduction of new generic Top Level Domains
   (gTLD), two special modes will come into effect:

   o  Sunrise Period

   o  Trademark Claims Period

   The Sunrise and Trademark Claims Periods are defined in the gTLD
   Applicant Guidebook [ICANN-GTLD-AGB-20120604].

   This document describes the requirements, the architecture and the
   interfaces between the Trademark Clearing House (TMCH) and Domain
   Name Registries (called Registries in the rest of the document) as
   well as between the TMCH and Domain Name Registrars (called
   Registrars in the rest of the document) for the provisioning and
   management of domain names during the Sunrise and Trademark Claims
   Periods.

   For any date and/or time indications, Coordinated Universal Time
   (UTC) applies.

2.  Terminology

   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].

   XML is case sensitive.  Unless stated otherwise, XML specifications
   and examples provided in this document MUST be interpreted in the
   character case presented in order to develop a conforming
   implementation.

   "tmNotice-1.0" is used as an abbreviation for
   "urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:tmNotice-1.0".  The XML namespace prefix
   "tmNotice" is used, but implementations MUST NOT depend on it and
   instead employ a proper namespace-aware XML parser and serializer to
   interpret and output the XML documents.

3.  Glossary

   In the following section, the most common terms are briefly

   explained:

   o  Effective allocation: A DN is considered effectively allocated
      when the DN object for the DN has been created in the SRS of the
      Registry and has been assigned to the effective user.  A DN object
      in status "pendingCreate" or any other status that precedes the
      first time a DN is assigned to an end-user is not considered an
      effective allocation.  A DN object created internally by the
      Registry for subsequent delegation to another Registrant is not
      considered an effective allocation.

   o  Backend Registry Operator: Entity that manages (a part of) the
      technical infrastructure for a Registry Operator.  The Registry
      Operator may also be the Backend Registry Operator.

   o  CA: Certificate Authority, see [RFC5280] and [RFC6818]

   o  CSV: Comma-Separated Values, see [RFC4180]

   o  CNIS, Claims Notice Information Service: This service provides
      TCNs to Registrars.

   o  CRC32, Cyclic Redundancy Check: algorithm used in the ISO 3309
      standard and in section 8.1.1.6.2 of ITU-T recommendation V.42.

   o  CRL: Certificate Revocation List, see [RFC5280] and [RFC6818].

   o  Date and time, datetime: Date and time are specified following the
      standard "Date and Time on the Internet specification", see
      [RFC3339].

   o  DN: Domain Name, domain name, see [RFC1034]

   o  DN Repository Object IDentifier, DNROID: an identifier assigned by
      the Registry to each DN object that unequivocally identifies said
      DN object.  For example, if a new DN object is created for a name
      that existed in the past, the DN objects will have different
      DNROIDs.

   o  DNS: Domain Name System, see [RFC1034]

   o  DNL, Domain Name Label: A label as specified in [RFC1035].  For
      IDNs the A-Label is used [RFC5890].

   o  DNL List: A list of DNLs that are covered by a PRM.

   o  EPP: Extensible Provisioning Protocol, see [RFC5730].

Internet-Draft       TMCH functional specifications             Aug 2013

   o  FQDN: Fully Qualified Domain Name (e.g. myname.example.com)

   o  HTTP: Hypertext Transfer Protocol, see [RFC2616]

   o  HTTPS: HTTP over TLS (Transport Layer Security), [RFC5246].

   o  ICANN-CA: ICANN's Certificate Authority (CA); Trust Anchor for the
      SMD PKI model.

   o  IDN: Internationalized Domain Name, see [RFC5890]

   o  LORDN, List of Registered Domain Names: This is the list of
      effectively allocated DNs matching a DNL of a PRM.  Registries
      will upload this list to the TMDB (during the NORDN process).

   o  Lookup Key: A random string of up to 51 chars from the set [a-zA-
      Z0-9/] to be used as the lookup Key by Registrars to obtain the
      TCN using the CNIS.  Lookup Keys are unique and are related to one
      DNL only.

   o  NORDN, Notification of Registered Domain Names: The process by
      which Registries upload their recent LORDN to the TMDB.

   o  PGP: Pretty Good Privacy, see [RFC4880]

   o  PKI: Public Key Infrastructure, see [RFC5280] and [RFC6818]

   o  PRM, Pre-registered mark: Mark that has been pre-registered with
      the TMCH.

   o  Registrant: Person or Organization registering a DN via a
      Registrar.

   o  Registrar, Domain Name Registrar: Entity that registers DNs with
      the Registry on behalf of the Registrant.

   o  Registry, Registry Operator, Domain Name Registry: Entity that
      accepts DN registrations from Registrars, maintains the central
      Database of Registered DNs.  A Registry Operator is the
      contracting party with ICANN for the TLD.

   o  SMD, Signed Mark Data: A cryptographically signed token issued by
      the TMV to the TMH to be used in the Sunrise Period to apply for a
      DN that matches a DNL of a PRM; see also [I-D.lozano-tmch-smd]

   o  SMD File: A file containing the SMD (see above) and some human
      readable data.  The latter is usually ignored in the processing of
      the SMD File.  See also Section 6.4.

Internet-Draft       TMCH functional specifications             Aug 2013

   o  SMDM, SMD Manager: A entity managing the SMDs, mainly maintaining
      lists of revoked SMDs (SMD Revocation List); see also
      [I-D.lozano-tmch-smd]

   o  SMD Revocation List: The SMD Revocation List is used by Registries
      (and optionally by Registrars) during the Sunrise Period to ensure
      that an SMD is still valid (i.e. not revoked).  The SMD Revocation
      List has a similar function as CRLs used in PKI.

   o  SRS: Shared Registration System, see also
      [ICANN-GTLD-AGB-20120604].

   o  Sunrise Period: During this period DNs matching a DNL of a PRM can
      be exclusively obtained by the respective TMHs.  For DNs matching
      a PRM, a special process applies to ensure a TMH gets informed on
      the effective allocation of a DN matching his/her PRM.

   o  TLD: Top Level Domain Name, see [RFC1591]

   o  Trademark, mark: Marks are used to claim exclusive properties of
      products or services.  A mark is typically a name, word, phrase,
      logo, symbol, design, image, or a combination of these elements.
      For the scope of this document only textual marks are relevant.

   o  Trademark Claims, Claims: Provides information to enhance the
      understanding of the Trademark rights being claimed by the TMH.

   o  Trademark Claims Notice, Claims Notice, Trademark Notice, TCN: A
      Trademark Claims Notice consist of one or more Trademark Claims
      and are provided to prospective Registrants of DNs.

   o  Trademark Claims Notice Identifier, TCNID: An element of the
      Trademark Claims Notice (see above), identifying said TCN.  The
      Trademark Claims Notice Identifier is specified in the element
      <tmNotice:id>.

   o  Trademark Claims Period: During this period, a special process
      applies to DNs matching the DNL List, to ensure a TMH gets
      informed of a DN matching his PRM.  For DNs matching the DNL List,
      Registrars show a TCN to prospective Registrants that has to be
      acknowledged before effective allocation of the DN.

   o  TMCH, Trademark Clearinghouse: The Trademark Clearinghouse is an
      ICANN central repository for information to be authenticated,
      stored, and disseminated, pertaining to the rights of TMHs.  The
      Trademark Clearinghouse is split into two functions TMV and TMDB
      (see below).  There could be several entities performing the TMV
      function, but only one entity performing the TMDB function.

Internet-Draft       TMCH functional specifications             Aug 2013

   o  TMDB, Trademark Clearinghouse Database: Serves as a database of
      the TMCH to provide information to the new gTLD Registries and
      Registrars to support Sunrise or Trademark Claims Services.  There
      is only one TMDB in the TMCH that concentrates the information
      about the "verified" Trademark records from the TMVs.

   o  TMH, Trademark Holder: The person or organization owning rights on
      a mark.

   o  TMV, Trademark Validator, Trademark validation organization: An
      entity authorized by ICANN to authenticate and validate
      registrations in the TMDB ensuring the marks qualify as registered
      or are court-validated marks or marks that are protected by
      statute or treaty.  This entity would also be asked to ensure that
      proof of use of marks is provided, which can be demonstrated by
      furnishing a signed declaration and one specimen of current use.

   o  UTC: Coordinated Universal Time, as maintained by the Bureau
      International des Poids et Mesures (BIPM); see also [RFC3339].

4.3.  Interfaces

   In the sub-sections below follows a short description of each
   interface to provide an overview of the architecture.  More detailed
   descriptions of the relevant interfaces follow further below
   (Section 5).

4.3.1.  hv

   The TMH registers a mark with a TMV via the hv interface.

   After the successful registration of the mark, the TMV makes
   available a SMD (Signed Mark Data) file (see also Section 6.4) to the
   TMH to be used during the Sunrise Period.

   The specifics of the hv interface are beyond the scope of this
   document.

4.3.2.  vd

   After successful mark registration, the TMV ensures the TMDB inserts
   the corresponding DNLs and mark information into the database via the
   vd interface.

   The specifics of the vd interface are beyond the scope of this
   document.

4.3.3.  dy

   Not used during the Sunrise Period.

   During the Trademark Claims Period the Registry fetches the latest
   DNL List from the TMDB via the dy interface in regular intervals.
   The protocol used on the dy interface is HTTPS.

4.3.4.  tr

   The Registrant communicates with the Registrar via the tr interface.

   The specifics of the tr interface are beyond the scope of this
   document.

4.3.5.  ry

   interface) via the dr interface.  The protocol used for fetching the
   TCN is HTTPS [RFC2818].

4.3.7.  yd

   During the Sunrise period the Registry notifies the TMDB via the yd
   interface of all DNs effectively allocated.

   During the Trademark Claims period, the Registry notifies the TMDB
   via the yd interface of all DNs effectively allocated that matched an
   entry in the Registry previously downloaded DNL List during the
   creation of the DN.

   The protocol used on the yd interface is HTTPS.

4.3.8.  dv

   The TMDB notifies via the dv interface to the TMV of all DNs
   effectively allocated that match a mark registered by that TMV.

   The specifics of the dv interface are beyond the scope of this
   document.

4.3.9.  vh

   The TMV notifies the TMH via the vh interface after a DN has been
   effectively allocated that matches a PRM of this TMH.

   The specifics of the vh interface are beyond the scope of this
   document.

4.3.10.  vs

   The TMV requests to add a revoked SMD to the SMD Revocation List at
   the SMDM.

5.2.2.  DN Registration by Registries

   Registries MUST perform a minimum set of checks for verifying each DN
   registration during the Sunrise Period upon reception of a
   registration request over the ry interface (Section 4.3.5).  If any
   of these checks fails the Registry MUST abort the registration.  Each
   of these checks MUST be performed before the DN is effectively
   allocated.

   In case of asynchronous registrations (e.g. auctions), the minimum
   set of checks MAY be performed when creating the intermediate object
   (e.g. a DN application) used for DN registration.  If the minimum set
   of checks is performed when creating the intermediate object (e.g. a
   DN application) a Registry MAY effective allocate the DN without
   performing the minimum set of checks again.

   Performing the minimum set of checks Registries MUST verify that:

   1.  A SMD has been received from the Registrar along with the DN
       registration.

   2.  The certificate of the TMV has been correctly signed by the
       ICANN-CA.  (The certificate of the TMV is contained within the
       SMD.)

   3.  The time when the validation is done is within the validity
       period of the TMV certificate.

   4.  The certificate of the TMV is not be listed in the CRL file
       specified in the CRL distribution point of the TMV certificate.

   5.  The signature of the SMD (signed with the TMV certificate) is
       valid.

   6.  The time when the validation is done is within the validity
       period of the SMD based on <smd:notBefore> and <smd:notAfter>
       elements.

   7.  The SMD has not been revoked, i.e., is not contained in the SMD
       Revocation List.

   8.  The leftmost DNL (A-label in case of IDNs) of the DN being
       effectively allocated matches one of the labels (<mark:label>)
       elements in the SMD.

   These procedure apply to all DN effective allocations at the second
   level as well as to all other levels subordinate to the TLD that the
   Registry accepts registrations for.

5.2.3.  TMCH Sunrise Services for Registries

5.2.3.1.  SMD Revocation List

   A new SMD Revocation List MUST be published by the SMDM twice a day,
   by 00:00:00 and 12:00:00 UTC.

   Registries MUST refresh the latest version of the SMD Revocation List
   at least once every 24 hours.

   Note: the SMD Revocation List will be the same regardless of the TLD.
   If a Backend Registry Operator manages the infrastructure of several
   TLDs, the Backend Registry Operator could refresh the SMD Revocation
   List once every 24 hours, the SMD Revocation List could be used for
   all the TLDs managed by the Backend Registry Operator.

5.2.3.2.  Certificate Revocation List

   Registries MUST refresh their local copy of the CRL at least every 24
   hours using the CRL distribution point specified in the TMV
   certificate.

   Operationally, the CRL file and CRL distribution point is the same
   for all TMVs and (at publication of this document) located at
   < http://crl.icann.org/tmch.crl >.

   Note: the CRL file will be the same regardless of the TLD.  If a
   Backend Registry Operator manages the infrastructure of several TLDs,
   the Backend Registry Operator could refresh the CRL file once every
   24 hours, the CRL file could be used for all the TLDs managed by the
   Backend Registry Operator.

5.2.3.3.  Notice of Registered Domain Names

   The Registry MUST send a LORDN file containing DNs effectively
   allocated to the TMDB (over the yd interface, Section 4.3.7).

   The effective allocation of a DN MUST be reported by the Registry to
   the TMDB within 26 hours of the effective allocation of such DN.

   The Registry MUST create and upload a LORDN file in case there are
   effective allocations in the SRS, that have not been successfully
   reported to the TMDB in a previous LORDN file.

   Based on the timers used by TMVs and the TMDB, the RECOMMENDED
   maximum frequency to upload LORDN files from the Registries to the
   TMDB is every 3 hours.

   It is RECOMMENDED that Registries try to upload at least two LORDN
   files per day to the TMDB with enough time in between, in order to
   have time to fix problems reported in the LORDN file.

   The Registry SHOULD upload a LORDN file only when the previous LORDN
   file has been processed by the TMDB and the related LORDN Log file
   has been downloaded and processed by the Registry.

   The Registry MUST upload LORDN files for DNs effectively allocated
   during the Sunrise or Claims period (same applies to DNs effectively
   allocated using applications created during the Sunrise or Claims
   period in case of using asynchronous registrations).

   The yd interface (Section 4.3.7) MUST support at least 1 and MAY
   support up to 10 concurrent connections from each IP address
   registered by a Registry Operator to access the service.

   The TMDB MUST process each uploaded LORDN file and make the related
   log file available for Registry download within 30 minutes of the
   finalization of the upload.

5.3.2.  DN registration by Registries

   During Trademark Claim Periods, Registries perform two main
   functions:

   o  Registries MUST provide Registrars (over the ry interface,
      Section 4.3.5) the Lookup Key used to retrieve the TCNs for DNs
      that match the DNL List.

   o  Registries MUST provide the Lookup Key only when queried about a
      specific DN.

   o  For each DN matching a DNL of a PRM, Registries MUST perform a
      minimum set of checks for verifying DN registrations during
      Trademark Claims Period upon reception of a registration request
      over the ry interface (Section 4.3.5).  If any of these checks
      fails the Registry MUST abort the registration.  Each of these
      checks MUST be performed before the DN is effectively allocated.

   o  In case of asynchronous registrations (e.g. auctions), the minimum
      set of checks MAY be performed when creating the intermediate
      object (e.g. a DN application) used for DN effective allocation.
      If the minimum set of checks is performed when creating the
      intermediate object (e.g. a DN application) a Registry MAY
      effective allocate the DN without performing the minimum set of
      checks again.

   o  Performing the minimum set of checks Registries MUST verify that:

      1.  The TCNID (<tmNotice:id>), expiration datetime (<tmNotice:
          notAfter>) and acceptance datetime of the TCN, have been
          received from the Registrar along with the DN registration.

             If the three elements mentioned above are not provided by
             the Registrar for a DN matching a DNL of a PRM, but the DNL
             was inserted (or re-inserted) for the first time into DNL
             List less than 24 hours ago, the registration MAY continue
             without this data and the tests listed below are not
             required to be performed.

      2.  The TCN has not expired (according to the expiration datetime
          sent by the Registrar).

      3.  The acceptance datetime is no more than 48 hours in the past.

      4.  Using the leftmost DNL (A-label in the case of IDNs) of the DN
          being registered, the expiration datetime provided by the
          registrar, and the TMDB Notice Identifier extracted from the

          TCNID provided by the registrar compute the TCN Checksum.
          Verify that the computed TCN Checksum match the TCN Checksum
          present in the TCNID.

   These procedures apply to all DN registrations at the second level as
   well as to all other levels subordinate to the TLD that the Registry
   accepts registrations for.

5.3.3.  Trademark Claims Services for Registries

5.3.3.1.  Domain Name Label (DNL) List

   A new DNL List MUST be published by the TMDB twice a day, by 00:00:00
   and 12:00:00 UTC.

   Registries MUST refresh the latest version of the DNL List at least
   once every 24 hours.

   Update DNL List

                                 Figure 8

   Note: the DNL List will be the same regardless of the TLD.  If a
   Backend Registry Operator manages the infrastructure of several TLDs,
   the Backend Registry Operator could refresh the DNL List once every
   24 hours, the DNL List could be used for all the TLDs managed by the
   Backend Registry Operator.

5.3.3.2.  Notice of Registered Domain Names

   The NORDN process during the Trademark Claims Period is almost the
   same as during Sunrise Period as defined in Section 5.2.3.3 with the
   difference that only registrations subject to a Trademark Claim
   (i.e., at registration time the name appeared in the current DNL List
   downloaded by the Registry Operator) are included in the LORDN.

5.3.4.  DN Registration by Registrars

   For each DN matching a DNL of a PRM, Registrars MUST perform the
   following steps:

   1.  Use the Lookup Key received from the Registry to obtain the TNC
       from the TMDB using the dr interface (Section 4.3.6) Registrars
       MUST only query for the Lookup Key of a DN that is available for
       registration.

   2.  Present the TCN to the Registrant as described in
       [ICANN-GTLD-AGB-20120604].

   3.  Ask Registrant for acknowledgement, i.e. the Registrant MUST
       consent with the TCN, before any further processing.  (The
       transmission of a TCNID to the Registry over the ry interface,
       Section 4.3.5 implies that the Registrant has expressed his
       consent with the TCN.)

   4.  Perform the minimum set of checks for verifying DN registrations.
       If any of these checks fails the Registrar MUST abort the DN
       registration.  Each of these checks MUST be performed before the
       registration is sent to the Registry.  Performing the minimum set
       of checks Registrars MUST verify that:

       1.  The time when the validation is done is within the TCN
           validity based on the <tmNotice:notBefore> and <tmNotice:
           notAfter> elements.

       2.  The leftmost DNL (A-label in case of IDNs) of the DN being
           effectively allocated matches the label (<tmNotice:label>)
           element in the TCN.

       3.  The Registrant has acknowledged (expressed his consent with)
           the TCN.

   5.  Record the date and time when the registrant acknowledged the
       TCN.

   6.  Send the registration to the Registry (ry interface,
       Section 4.3.5) and include the following information:

       *  TCNID (<tmNotice:id>)

   TCN are generated twice a day.  The expiration date (<tmNotice:
   notAfter>) of each TCN MUST be set to 48 hours in the future by the
   TMDB, allowing the implementation of a cache by Registrars and enough
   time for acknowledging the TCN.  Registrars SHOULD implement a cache
   of TCNs to minimize the number of queries sent to the TMDB.  A cached
   TCN MUST be removed from the cache after the expiration date of the
   TCN as defined by <tmNotice:notAfter>.  The TMDB MAY implement rate-
   limiting as one of the protection mechanisms to mitigate the risk of
   performance degradation.

5.3.5.  Trademark Claims Services for Registrars

5.3.5.1.  Claims Notice Information Service

   The TCNs are provided by the TMDB online and are fetched by the
   Registrar via the dr interface (Section 4.3.6).

   To get access to the TCNs, the Registrar needs the credentials
   provided by the TMDB (Section 5.1.2.1) and the Lookup Key received
   from the Registry via the ry interface (Section 4.3.5).  The dr
   interface (Section 4.3.6) uses HTTPS with Basic access
   authentication.

   The dr interface (Section 4.3.6) MAY support up to 10 concurrent
   connections from each Registrar.

   The URL of the dr interface (Section 4.3.6) is:

      < https://<tmdb-domain-name>/cnis/<lookupkey>.xml >

   Note that the "lookupkey" may contain SLASH characters ("/").  The
   SLASH character is part of the URL path and MUST NOT be escaped when
   requesting the TCN.

   The TLS certificate (HTTPS) used on the dr interface (Section 4.3.6)
   MUST be signed by a well-know public CA.  Registrars MUST perform the
   Certification Path Validation described in Section 6 of [RFC5280].
   Registrars will be authenticated in the dr interface using HTTP Basic
   access authentication.  The dr (Section 4.3.6) interface MUST support
   HTTPS keep-alive and MUST maintain the connection for up to 30
   minutes.

6.  Data Format Descriptions

6.1.  DNL List file

   This section defines format of the list containing every Domain Name
   Label (DNL) that matches a Pre-Registered Mark (PRM).  The list is
   maintained by the TMDB and downloaded by Registries in regular
   intervals (see Section 5.3.3.1).  The Registries use the DNL List
   during the Trademark Claims period to check whether a requested DN
   matched a DNL of a PRM.

   The DNL List contains all the DNLs covered by a PRM present in the
   TMDB at the time it is generated.

   The DNL List is contained in a CSV-like formatted file that has the
   following structure:

   o  first line: <version>,<DNL List creation datetime>

         Where:

         +  <version>, version of the file, this field MUST be 1.

         +  <DNL List creation datetime>, date and time in UTC that the
            DNL List was created.

   o  second line: a header line as specified in [RFC4180]

         With the header names as follows:

         DNL,lookup-key,insertion-datetime

   o  One or more lines with: <DNL>,<lookup key>,<DNL insertion
      datetime>

         Where:

         +  <DNL>, a Domain Name Label covered by a PRM.

         +  <lookup key>, lookup key that the Registry MUST provide to
            the Registrar.  The lookup key has the following format:
            <YYYY><MM><DD><vv>/<X>/<X>/<X>/<Random bits><Sequential
            number>, where:

            -  YYYY: year that the TCN was generated.

            -  MM: zero-padded month that the TCN was generated.

Internet-Draft       TMCH functional specifications             Aug 2013

            -  DD: zero-padded day that the TCN was generated.

            -  vv: version of the TCN, possible values are 00 and 01.

            -  X: one hexadecimal digit [0-9A-F].  This is the first,
               second and third hexadecimal digit of encoding the
               <Random bits> in base16 as specified in [RFC4648].

            -  Random bits: 144 random bits encoded in base64url as
               specified in [RFC4648].

            -  Sequential number: zero-padded natural number in the
               range 0000000001 to 2147483647.

         +  <DNL insertion datetime>, datetime in UTC that the DNL was
            first inserted into the DNL List.  The possible two values
            of time for inserting a DNL to the DNL List are 00:00:00 and
            12:00:00 UTC.

6.2.  SMD Revocation List

   This section defines the format of the list of SMDs that have been
   revoked.  The list is maintained by the SMDM and downloaded by
   Registries (and optionally by Registrars) in regular intervals (see
   Section 5.2.3.1).  The SMD Revocation List is used during the Sunrise
   Period to validate SMDs received.  The SMD Revocation List has a
   similar function as CRLs used in PKI [RFC5280] / [RFC6818].

   The SMD Revocation List contains all the revoked SMDs present in the
   TMDB at the time it is generated.

   The SMD Revocation List is contained in a CSV-like formatted file
   that has the following structure:

   o  first line: <version>,<SMD Revocation List creation datetime>

         Where:

         +  <version>, version of the file, this field MUST be 1.

         +  <SMD Revocation List creation datetime>, datetime in UTC
            that the SMD Revocation List was created.

   o  second line: a header line as specified in [RFC4180]

         With the header names as follows:

         smd-id,insertion-datetime

   o  One or more lines with: <smd-id>,<revoked SMD datetime>

         Where:

         +  <smd-id>, identifier of the SMD that was revoked.

         +  <revoked SMD datetime>, revocation datetime in UTC of the
            SMD.  The possible two values of time for inserting a DNL to
            the DNL List are 00:00:00 and 12:00:00 UTC.

   To provide integrity protection, the SMD Revocation List is PGP
   [RFC4880] signed by the TMDB with the private key of the TMDB (see
   also Section 5.1.1.4).  The SMD Revocation List is provided by the
   TMDB with extension .csv.  The PGP signature of the SMD Revocation
   List can be found in the similar URI but with extension .sig as shown
   below.

6.3.  LORDN File

   This section defines the format of the List of Registered Domain
   Names (LORDN), which is maintained by each Registry and uploaded at
   least daily to the TMDB.  Every time a DN matching a DNL of a PRM
   said DN is added to the LORDN along with further information related
   to its registration.

   The URI of the yd interface (Section 4.3.7) used to upload the LORDN
   file is:

   o  Sunrise LORDN file:

         < https://<tmdb-domain-name>/LORDN/<TLD>/sunrise >

   o  Claims LORDN file:

         < https://<tmdb-domain-name>/LORDN/<TLD>/claims >

   The yd interface (Section 4.3.7) returns the following HTTP status
   codes after a HTTP POST request method is received:

   o  The interface provides a HTTP/202 status code if the interface was
      able to receive the LORDN file and the syntax of the LORDN file is
      correct.

         The interface provides the LORDN Transaction Identifier in the
         HTTP Entity-body that would be used by the Registry to download
         the LORDN Log file.  The LORDN Transaction Identifier is a
         natural number zero-padded in the range 0000000000000000001 to
         9223372036854775807.

         The TMDB uses the <LORDN creation datetime> element of the
         LORDN file as a unique client-side identifier.  If a LORDN file
         with the same <LORDN creation datetime> of a previously sent
         LORDN file is received by the TMDB, the LORDN Transaction
         Identifier of the previously sent LORDN file MUST be provided
         to the Registry.  The TMDB MUST ignore the DN Lines present in
         the LORDN file if a LORDN file with the same <LORDN creation
         datetime> was previously sent.

         The HTTP Location header field contains the URI where the LORDN
         Log file could be retrieved later, for example:

            202 Accepted

            Location: https://<tmdb-domain-name>/LORDN/example/sunrise/
            0000000000000000001/result

Internet-Draft       TMCH functional specifications             Aug 2013

   o  The interface provides a HTTP/400 if the request is incorrect or
      the syntax of the LORDN file is incorrect.  The TMDB MUST return a
      human readable message in the HTTP Entity-body regarding the
      incorrect syntax of the LORDN file.

   o  The interface provides a HTTP/401 status code if the credentials
      provided does not authorize the Registry Operator to upload a
      LORDN file.

   o  The interface provides a HTTP/500 status code if the system is
      experiencing a general failure.

   For example, to upload the Sunrise LORDN file for TLD "example", the
   URI would be:

      < https://<tmdb-domain-name>/LORDN/example/sunrise >

   The LORDN is contained in a CSV-like formatted file that has the
   following structure:

   o  For Sunrise Period:

      *  first line: <version>,<LORDN creation datetime>,<Number of DN
         Lines>

            Where:

               LORDN was created.

            -  <Number of DN Lines>, number of DN Lines present in the
               LORDN file.

6.3.1.  LORDN Log File

   After reception of the LORDN file, the TMDB verifies its content for
   syntactical and semantical correctness.  The output of the LORDN file
   verification is retrieved using the yd interface (Section 4.3.7).

   The URI of the yd interface (Section 4.3.7) used to retrieve the
   LORDN Log File is:

   o  Sunrise LORDN Log file:

         < https://<tmdb-domain-name>/LORDN/<TLD>/sunrise/
         <lordn-transaction-identifier>/result >

   o  Claims LORDN Log file:

         < https://<tmdb-domain-name>/LORDN/<TLD>/claims/
         <lordn-transaction-identifier>/result >

   A Registry Operator MUST NOT send more than one request per minute
   per TLD to download a LORDN Log file.

   The yd interface (Section 4.3.7) returns the following HTTP status
   codes after a HTTP GET request method is received:

   o  The interface provides a HTTP/200 status code if the interface was
      able to provide the LORDN Log file.  The LORDN Log file is
      contained in the HTTP Entity-body.

   o  The interface provides a HTTP/204 status code if the LORDN
      Transaction Identifier is correct, but the server has not
      finalized processing the LORDN file.

   o  The interface provides a HTTP/400 status code if the request is
      incorrect.

   o  The interface provides a HTTP/401 status code if the credentials
      provided does not authorize the Registry Operator to download the
      LORDN Log file.

   o  The interface provides a HTTP/404 status code if the LORDN
      Transaction Identifier is incorrect.

   o  The interface provides a HTTP/500 status code if the system is
      experiencing a general failure.

   For example, to obtain the LORDN Log File in case of a Sunrise LORDN
   file with LORDN Transaction Identifier 0000000000000000001 and TLD
   "example" the URI would be:

      < https://<tmdb-domain-name>/LORDN/example/sunrise/
      0000000000000000001/result >

6.3.1.1.  LORDN Log Result Codes

   In Figure 14 the classes of result codes (rc) are listed.  Those
   classes in square brackets are not used at this time, but may come
   into use at some later stage.  The first two digits of a result code
   denote the result code class, which defines the outcome at the TMDB:

   o  ok: Success, DN Line accepted by the TMDB.

   o  warn: a warning is issued, DN Line accepted by the TMDB.

   o  err: an error is issued, LORDN file rejected by the TMDB.

   In case that after processing a DN Line, the error result code is
   45xx or 46xx for that DN Line, the LORDN file MUST be rejected by the
   TMDB.  If the LORDN file is rejected, DN Lines that are syntactically
   valid will be reported with a 2001 result code.  A 2001 result code
   means that the DN Line is syntactically valid, however the DN Line
   was not processed because the LORDN file was rejected.  All DNs
   reported in a rejected LORDN file MUST be reported again by the
   Registry because none of the DN Lines present in the LORDN file have
   been processed by the TMDB.

   LORDN Log Result Code Classes

6.4.  SMD File

   This section defines the format of the SMD File.  After a successful
   registration of a mark, the TMV returns an SMD File to the TMH.  The
   SMD File can then be used for registration of one or more DNs covered
   by the PRM during the Sunrise Period of a TLD.

   Two encapsulation boundaries are defined for delimiting the
   encapsulated base64 encoded SMD: i.e. "-----BEGIN ENCODED SMD-----"
   and "-----END ENCODED SMD-----".  Only data inside the encapsulation
   boundaries MUST be used by Registries and Registrars for validation
   purposes, i.e. any data outside these boundaries as well as the
   boundaries themselves MUST be ignored for validation purposes.

   The structure of the SMD File is as follows:

   o  Marks: <marks>

   o  smdID: <SMD-ID>

   o  U-labels: <comma separated list of labels in presentation form
      (i.e., U-labels or LDH as the case may be)>

   o  notBefore: <begin validity>

   o  notAfter: <end validity>

   o  -----BEGIN ENCODED SMD-----

   o  <encoded SMD (see [I-D.lozano-tmch-smd])>

   o  -----END ENCODED SMD-----

6.5.  Trademark Claims Notice

   The TMDB MUST provide the TCN to Registrars in XML format as
   specified below.

   An enclosing element <tmNotice:notice> that describes the Trademark
   Notice to a given label.

   The child elements of the <tmNotice:notice> element include:

   o  A <tmNotice:id> element that contains the unique identifier of the
      Trademark Notice.  This element contains the the TCNID.

         The TCNID is a string concatenation of a TCN Checksum and the
         TMDB Notice Identifier.  The first 8 characters of the TCNID is
         a TCN Checksum.  The rest is the TMDB Notice Identifier, which
         is a zero-padded natural number in the range of
         0000000000000000001 to 9223372036854775807.

         Example of a TCNID:

            370d0b7c9223372036854775807.

         Where:

         +  TCN Checksum=370d0b7c

         +  TMDB Notice Identifier=9223372036854775807

         The TCN Checksum is a 8 characters long Base16 encoded output
         of computing the CRC32 of the string concatenation of: label +
         unix_timestamp(<tmNotice:notAfter>) + TMDB Notice Identifier

         TMDB MUST use the Unix time conversion of the <tmNotice:
         notAfter> in UTC to calculate the TCN Checksum.  Unix time is
         defined as the number of seconds that have elapsed since 1970-
         01-01T00:00:00Z not counting leap seconds.  For example, the
         conversion to Unix time of 2010-08-16T09:00:00.0Z is shown:

            unix_time(2010-08-16T09:00:00.0Z)=1281949200

         The TMDB uses the <tmNotice:label> and <tmNotice:notAfter>
         elements from the TCN along with the TMDB Notice Identifier to
         compute the TCN Checksum.

         A Registry MUST use the leftmost DNL (A-label in case of IDNs)
         of the DN being registered, the expiration datetime of the TCN
         (provided by the Registrar) and the TMDB Notice Identifier

         extracted from the TCNID (provided by the Registrar) to compute
         the TCN Checksum.  For example the DN "foo.bar.example" being
         effectively allocated, the left most label would be "foo".

         Example of computation of the TCN Checksum:

            CRC32(example-one12819492009223372036854775807)=370d0b7c

   o  A <tmNotice:notBefore> element that contains the start of the
      validity date and time of the TCN.

   o  A <tmNotice:notAfter> element that contains the expiration date
      and time of the TCN.

   o  A <tmNotice:label> elements that contain the DNL (A-label in case
      of IDNs) form of the label that correspond to the DN covered by a
      PRM.

   o  One or more <tmNotice:claim> elements that contain the Trademark
      Claim.  The <tmNotice:claim> element contains the following child
      elements:

      *  A <tmNotice:markName> element that contains the mark text
         string.

      *  One or more <tmNotice:holder> elements that contains the
         information of the holder of the mark.  An "entitlement"
         attribute is used to identify the entitlement of the holder,
         possible values are: owner, assignee or licensee.  The child
         elements of <tmNotice:holder> include:

         +  An OPTIONAL <tmNotice:name> element that contains the name
            of the holder.  A <tmNotice:name> MUST be specified if
            <tmNotice:org> is not specified.

         +  An OPTIONAL <tmNotice:org> element that contains the name of
            the organization holder of the mark.  A <tmNotice:org> MUST
            be specified if <tmNotice:name> is not specified.

         +  A <tmNotice:addr> element that contains the address
            information of the holder of a mark.  A <tmNotice:addr>
            contains the following child elements:

            -  One, two or three OPTIONAL <tmNotice:street> elements
               that contains the organization's street address.
