Abstract

   This document describes an Extensible Provisioning Protocol (EPP)
   extension mapping for the management of Domain Name System (DNS)
   domain names subject to the Redemption Grace Period (RGP) policies
   defined by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers
   (ICANN).  Specified in XML, this mapping extends the EPP domain name
   mapping to provide additional features required for RGP processing.

Internet-Draft              EPP RGP Mapping                    July 2003


1. Introduction

   This document describes an extension mapping for version 1.0 of the
   Extensible Provisioning Protocol (EPP).  This mapping, an extension
   of the domain name mapping described in [2], is specified using the
   Extensible Markup Language (XML) 1.0 as described in [3] and XML
   Schema notation as described in [4] and [5].

   The EPP core protocol specification [6] provides a complete
   description of EPP command and response structures.  A thorough
   understanding of the base protocol specification is necessary to
   understand the mapping described in this document.

   Over the course of several months in 2002, The Internet Corporation
   for Assigned Names and Numbers [13] (ICANN) developed an
   implementation proposal [14] to provide a "grace period" for Domain
   Name System (DNS) domain name recovery (or redemption) before a
   domain name is purged from the repository of the authoritative
   registry for the domain name.  This mapping extends the EPP domain
   <renew> command to initiate the redemption process for a domain name
   that has entered the Redemption Grace Period (RGP) and it extends the
   EPP domain <info> response to identify the status of domains that
   have entered the RGP.

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

1.1 Changes from Previous Version

   (Note to RFC editor: please remove this section completely before
   publication as an RFC.)

   Changed URIs used to identify the RGP namespace and updated the IANA
   Considerations section to be consistent with the URIs used.

   Added support for protocol-based RGP report delivery.

2. Redemption Grace Period State Diagram

   The Redemption Grace Period (RGP) involves several domain state
   transitions as a domain name moves through the redemption process:

   1.   A domain is initially in the EPP "ok" status, or some other
        status that allows processing of the EPP <delete> command.

   2.   A <delete> command is received and processed for the domain
        name.

   3.   RGP begins once the <delete> command is processed successfully.
        The EPP status changes to "pendingDelete", and the RGP status is
        initialized to "redemptionPeriod".  The domain remains in this
        state until either a <restore> operation is requested or the
        redemption period elapses.

   4.   A <restore> operation can be requested using the extended EPP
        <renew> command.  Go to step 8 if the redemption period elapses
        before a <restore> request is received.

   5.   If the <restore> is successful, the Registry waits to receive a
        restore report from the registrar for a period of time defined
        by the Registry.  The EPP status remains "pendingDelete" and the
        RGP status changes to "pendingRestore". While this extension
        defines a method to deliver a restore report via EPP, an
        out-of-band mechanism (such as a web site) can also be used to
        deliver restore reports.

   6.   The domain name returns to the redemption period state (state 3)
        if a restore report is not received.

   7.   If a restore report is received the EPP status returns to "ok"
        (or whatever it was prior to processing the <delete> command),
        and the RGP status is removed completely.

   8.   The redemption period elapses before a <restore> request is
        received.

   9.   The EPP status remains "pendingDelete" and the RGP status
        changes to "pendingDelete".  The domain name remains in this
        state for a period of time defined by the Registry.

   10.  The domain name is purged once the pending delete period
        elapses.

   11.  The domain name is available for re-registration.

3. Object Attributes

   This extension adds additional elements to the domain name mapping
   described in the EPP domain mapping [2].  Only new element
   descriptions are described here.

3.1 Status Values

   This extension defines three new status values to represent the
   different states that a domain can be in as a result of redemption
   grace period processing.  These are:

      redemptionPeriod: This status value is used to describe a domain
      for which a <delete> command has been received, but the domain has
      not yet been purged because an opportunity exists to restore the
      domain and abort the deletion process. The amount of time that a
      domain can stay in this status before being entering purge
      processing is a matter of registry policy.

      pendingRestore: This status value is used to describe a domain
      that is in the process of being restored after being in the
      redemptionPeriod state.  The amount of time that a domain can stay
      in this status before being returned to the redemptionPeriod state
      is a matter of registry policy.

      pendingDelete: This status value is used to describe a domain that
      has entered the purge processing state after completing the
      redemptionPeriod state.  The amount of time that a domain can stay
      in this status before being being purged is a matter of registry
      policy.  A domain in this status MUST also be in the pendingDelete
      status described in the EPP domain mapping [2].


3.2 Whois Data and Supporting Information

   This extension allows a client to provide copies of whois [10] data
   and supporting information in a restore report as required by the RGP
   process.  No specific format is required by this extension; both free
   text and XML markup MAY be used.

3.3 Dates and Times

   Date and time attribute values MUST be represented in Universal
   Coordinated Time (UTC) using the Gregorian calendar.  The extended
   date-time form using upper case "T" and "Z" characters defined in RFC
   3339 [7] MUST be used to represent date-time values as XML Schema
   does not support truncated date-time forms or lower case "T" and "Z"
   characters.

Internet-Draft              EPP RGP Mapping                    July 2003


3.4 Client Statements

   The RGP process requires a client to make two statements regarding
   the data included in a restore report.  No specific format is
   required by this extension; both free text and XML markup MAY be
   used.  English is the default language used within the statements,
   but other languages MAY be used.

4. EPP Command Mapping

   A detailed description of the EPP syntax and semantics can be found
   in the EPP core protocol specification [6]. The command mappings
   described here are specifically for use in implementing redemption
   grace period processes via EPP.

4.1 EPP Query Commands

   EPP provides three commands to retrieve object information: <check>
   to determine if an object is known to the server, <info> to retrieve
   detailed information associated with an object, and <transfer> to
   retrieve object transfer status information.

4.1.1 EPP <check> Command

   This extension does not add any elements to the EPP <check> command
   or <check> response described in the EPP domain mapping [2].

4.1.2 EPP <info> Command

   This extension does not add any elements to the EPP <info> command
   described in the EPP domain mapping [2].  Additional elements are
   defined for the <info> response.

   When an <info> command has been processed successfully, the EPP
   <resData> element MUST contain child elements as described in [2].
   In addition, the EPP <extension> element MUST contain a child
   <rgp:infData> element that identifies the RGP namespace and the
   location of the RGP schema.  The <rgp:infData> element contains a
   single <rgp:rgpStatus> element that contains a single attribute "s"
   whose value describes the current RGP status of the domain.  Possible
   status values are described in section Section 3.1.

   Example <info> response for "redemptionPeriod" status:

   S:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
   S:<epp xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:epp-1.0"

4.1.3 EPP <transfer> Command

   This extension does not add any elements to the EPP <transfer>
   command or <transfer> response described in the EPP domain mapping
   [2].

4.2 EPP Transform Commands

   EPP provides five commands to transform objects: <create> to create
   an instance of an object, <delete> to delete an instance of an
   object, <renew> to extend the validity period of an object,
   <transfer> to manage object sponsorship changes, and <update> to
   change information associated with an object.

4.2.1 EPP <create> Command

   This extension does not add any elements to the EPP <create> command
   or <create> response described in the EPP domain mapping [2].

4.2.2 EPP <delete> Command

   This extension does not add any elements to the EPP <delete> command
   or <delete> response described in the EPP domain mapping [2].

4.2.3 EPP <renew> Command

   This extension defines additional elements for the EPP <renew>
   command and response described in the EPP domain mapping [2].

   The EPP <renew> command provides a transform operation that allows a
   client to extend the registration period a domain object.  In
   addition to the EPP command elements described in the EPP domain
   mapping [2], the command MUST contain an <extension> element.  The

   <extension> element MUST contain a child <rgp:renew> element that
   identifies the RGP namespace and the location of the RGP schema.  The
   <rgp:renew> element contains a single <rgp:restore> element that
   contains an OPTIONAL <rgp:report> element that MAY be used to deliver
   an RGP restore report.

   The <rgp:restore> element contains a REQUIRED "op" attribute that
   describes the RGP operation being requested.  Two values are defined:
   "request" is used to identify a restore request that does not include
   a restore report, and "report" is used to identify a restore request

   The <rgp:report> element contains the following child elements:

   -  An <rgp:preWhois> element that contains a copy of the whois [10]
      data that existed for the domain name prior to the domain name
      being deleted.  This element MAY contain both text and XML markup.

   -  An <rgp:postWhois> element that contains a copy of the whois [10]

      report is submitted.  This element MAY contain both text and XML
      markup.

   -  An <rgp:delTime> element that contains the date and time when the
      domain name delete request was sent to the server.

   -  An <rgp:resTime> element that contains the date and time when the
      original <rgp:restore> command was sent to the server.

   -  An <rgp:resReason> element that contains a brief explanation of
      the reason for restoring the domain name.

   -  An <rgp:statement> element that contains a text statement that the
      client has not restored the domain name in order to assume the
      rights to use or sell the domain name for itself or for any third
      party.  Supporting information related to this statement MAY be
      supplied in the <rgp:other> element described below.  An OPTIONAL
      "lang" attribute MAY be present to identify the language if
      English (value "en") is not used to represent the statement.

   -  A second <rgp:statement> element that contains a text statement
      that the information in the restore report is factual to the best
      of the client's knowledge.  An OPTIONAL "lang" attribute MAY be

   contains a single attribute "s" whose value MUST be "pendingRestore"

   When an extended <renew> command with a restore report has been
   processed successfully, the EPP response is as described in the EPP
   domain mapping [2] with no RGP extension.  RGP extension is not
   required because acceptance of the restore report completes RGP

6. Internationalization Considerations

   EPP is represented in XML, which provides native support for encoding
   information using the Unicode character set and its more compact
   representations including UTF-8 [11].  Conformant XML processors
   recognize both UTF-8 and UTF-16 [12].  Though XML includes provisions
   to identify and use other character encodings through use of an
   "encoding" attribute in an <?xml?> declaration, use of UTF-8 is
   RECOMMENDED in environments where parser encoding support
   incompatibility exists.

   As an extension of the EPP domain mapping [2], the elements, element
   content, attributes, and attribute values described in this document
   MUST inherit the internationalization conventions used to represent
   higher-layer domain and core protocol structures present in an XML
   instance that includes this extension.

7. IANA Considerations

   This document uses URNs to describe XML namespaces and XML schemas
   conforming to a registry mechanism described in [8].  Two URI
   assignments are requested.

   Registration request for the RGP namespace:

   URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:rgp-1.0

   Registrant Contact: See the "Author's Address" section of this
   document.

   XML: None.  Namespace URIs do not represent an XML specification.

   Registration request for the RGP XML schema:

   URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:schema:rgp-1.0

   Registrant Contact: See the "Author's Address" section of this
   document.

   XML: See the "Formal Syntax" section of this document.

8. Security Considerations

   The mapping extensions described in this document do not provide any
   security services beyond those described by EPP [6], the EPP domain
   name mapping [2], and protocol layers used by EPP.  The security
   considerations described in these other specifications apply to this
   specification as well.
