1. Introduction
The WebSocket [RFC6455] protocol enables two-way message exchange
between clients and servers on top of a persistent TCP connection
(optionally secured with TLS [RFC5246]). The initial protocol
handshake makes use of HTTP [RFC2616] semantics, allowing the
WebSocket protocol to reuse existing HTTP infrastructure.

Internet-Draft WebSocket as a Transport for BFCP March 2015
The Binary Floor Control Protocol (BFCP) is a protocol to coordinate
access to shared resources in a conference. It is defined in
[I-D.ietf-bfcpbis-rfc4582bis] and is used between floor participants
and floor control servers, and between floor chairs (i.e.,
moderators) and floor control servers.
Modern web browsers include a WebSocket client stack complying with
the WebSocket API [WS-API] as specified by the W3C. It is expected
that other client applications (those running in personal computers
and devices such as smartphones) will also make a WebSocket client
stack available. This document updates [I-D.ietf-bfcpbis-rfc4582bis]
and [I-D.ietf-bfcpbis-rfc4583bis] in order to enable the usage of
BFCP in these scenarios.
The transport over which BFCP entities exchange messages depends on
how the clients obtain information to contact the floor control
server (e.g. using an SDP offer/answer exchange per
[I-D.ietf-bfcpbis-rfc4583bis] or the procedure described in RFC5018
[RFC5018]). [I-D.ietf-bfcpbis-rfc4582bis] defines two transports for
BFCP: TCP and UDP. This specification defines a new WebSocket sub-
protocol (as defined in section 1.9 in [RFC6455]) for transporting
BFCP messages between a WebSocket client and server. This sub-
protocol provides a reliable and boundary preserving transport for
BFCP when run on top of TCP. Since WebSocket is a reliable
transport, the extensions defined in [I-D.ietf-bfcpbis-rfc4582bis]
for sending BFCP over unreliable transports are not applicable. This
document normatively updates [I-D.ietf-bfcpbis-rfc4582bis] and
[I-D.ietf-bfcpbis-rfc4583bis].
This document does not restrict the selection nor prevent the usage
of other transport mechanisms for the BFCP protocol. Transport
selection is entirely at the discretion of the application. As an
example, an RTCWeb applications may choose to use either DataChannel
or WebSocket transport for BFCP, while non-RTCWeb applications could
still benefit from the ubiquity of the WebSocket protocol and make
use of the transport for BFCP defined in this document.
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].
2.1. Definitions
BFCP WebSocket Client: Any BFCP entity capable of opening outbound
connections to WebSocket servers and communicating using the
WebSocket BFCP sub-protocol as defined by this document.
Pascual, et al. Expires September 24, 2015 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft WebSocket as a Transport for BFCP March 2015
BFCP WebSocket Server: Any BFCP entity capable of listening for
inbound connections from WebSocket clients and communicating
using the WebSocket BFCP sub-protocol as defined by this
document.
3. The WebSocket Protocol
The WebSocket protocol [RFC6455] is a transport layer on top of TCP
(optionally secured with TLS [RFC5246]) in which both client and
server exchange message units in both directions. The protocol
defines a connection handshake, WebSocket sub-protocol and extensions
negotiation, a frame format for sending application and control data,
a masking mechanism, and status codes for indicating disconnection
causes.
The WebSocket connection handshake is based on HTTP [RFC2616] and
utilizes the HTTP GET method with an "Upgrade" request. This is sent
by the client and then answered by the server (if the negotiation
succeeded) with an HTTP 101 status code. Once the handshake is
completed the connection upgrades from HTTP to the WebSocket
protocol. This handshake procedure is designed to reuse the existing
HTTP infrastructure. During the connection handshake, client and
server agree on the application protocol to use on top of the
WebSocket transport. Such an application protocol (also known as a
"WebSocket sub-protocol") defines the format and semantics of the
messages exchanged by the endpoints. This could be a custom protocol
or a standardized one (as the WebSocket BFCP sub-protocol defined in
this document). Once the HTTP 101 response is processed both client
and server reuse the underlying TCP connection for sending WebSocket
messages and control frames to each other. Unlike plain HTTP, this
connection is persistent and can be used for multiple message
exchanges.
The WebSocket protocol defines message units to be used by
applications for the exchange of data, so it provides a message
boundary-preserving transport layer. These message units can contain
either UTF-8 text or binary data, and can be split into multiple
WebSocket text/binary transport frames as needed by the WebSocket
stack.
The WebSocket API [WS-API] for web browsers only defines callbacks
to be invoked upon receipt of an entire message unit, regardless
of whether it was received in a single WebSocket frame or split
across multiple frames.

4. The WebSocket BFCP Sub-Protocol
The term WebSocket sub-protocol refers to an application-level
protocol layered on top of a WebSocket connection. This document
specifies the WebSocket BFCP sub-protocol for carrying BFCP messages
over a WebSocket connection.
4.1. Handshake
The BFCP WebSocket Client and BFCP WebSocket Server negotiate usage
of the WebSocket BFCP sub-protocol during the WebSocket handshake
procedure as defined in section 1.3 of [RFC6455]. The Client MUST
include the value "bfcp" in the Sec-WebSocket-Protocol header in its
handshake request. The 101 reply from the Server MUST contain "bfcp"
in its corresponding Sec-WebSocket-Protocol header.
Below is an example of a WebSocket handshake in which the Client
requests the WebSocket BFCP sub-protocol support from the Server:
GET / HTTP/1.1
Host: bfcp-ws.example.com
Upgrade: websocket
Connection: Upgrade
Sec-WebSocket-Key: dGhlIHNhbXBsZSBub25jZQ==
Origin: http://www.example.com
Sec-WebSocket-Protocol: bfcp
Sec-WebSocket-Version: 13
The handshake response from the Server accepting the WebSocket BFCP
sub-protocol would look as follows:
HTTP/1.1 101 Switching Protocols
Upgrade: websocket
Connection: Upgrade
Sec-WebSocket-Accept: s3pPLMBiTxaQ9kYGzzhZRbK+xOo=
Sec-WebSocket-Protocol: bfcp
Once the negotiation has been completed, the WebSocket connection is
established and can be used for the transport of BFCP messages. The
WebSocket messages transmitted over this connection MUST conform to
the negotiated WebSocket sub-protocol.
4.2. BFCP Encoding
BFCP messages use a TLV (Type-Length-Value) binary encoding,
therefore BFCP WebSocket Clients and BFCP WebSocket Servers MUST be
transported in unfragmented binary WebSocket frames
(FIN:1,opcode:%x2) to exchange BFCP messages. The WebSocket frame
Pascual, et al. Expires September 24, 2015 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft WebSocket as a Transport for BFCP March 2015
data MUST be a valid BCFP message, so the length of the payload of
the WebSocket frame MUST be lower than the maximum size allowed (2^16
+12 bytes) for a BCFP message as described in
[I-D.ietf-bfcpbis-rfc4582bis]. In addition, the encoding rules for
reliable protocols defined in [I-D.ietf-bfcpbis-rfc4582bis] MUST be
followed.
While this specification assumes that BFCP encoding is only TLV
binary, future documents may define other mechanisms like JSON
serialization.
5. Transport Reliability
WebSocket [RFC6455] is a reliable protocol and therefore the BFCP
WebSocket sub-protocol defined by this document is a reliable BFCP
transport. Thus, client and server transactions using WebSocket for
transport MUST follow the procedures for reliable transports as
defined in [I-D.ietf-bfcpbis-rfc4582bis] and
[I-D.ietf-bfcpbis-rfc4583bis]
BFCP WebSocket clients cannot receive incoming WebSocket connections
initiated by any other peer. This means that a BFCP WebSocket client
MUST actively initiate a connection towards a BFCP WebSocket server
Each BFCP message MUST be carried within a single WebSocket message,
and a WebSocket message MUST NOT contain more than one BFCP message.
6. SDP Considerations
6.1. 'TCP/WS/BFCP' and 'TCP/WSS/BFCP' SDP 'proto' Values
Rules to generate an 'm' line for a BFCP stream are described in
[I-D.ietf-bfcpbis-rfc4583bis], Section 3
New values are defined for the transport field: TCP/WS/BFCP and
TCP/WSS/BFCP.
TCP/WS/BFCP is used when BFCP runs on top of WS, which in turn
runs on top of TCP.
TCP/WSS/BFCP is used when BFCP runs on top of WSS, which in turn
runs on top of TLS and TCP.
When TCP is used as the transport, the port field is set following
the rules in Section 7 of [I-D.ietf-bfcpbis-rfc4582bis]. Depending
on the value of the 'setup' attribute, the port field contains the
port to which the remote endpoint will direct BFCP messages or is
irrelevant (i.e., the endpoint will initiate the connection towards
Pascual, et al. Expires September 24, 2015 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft WebSocket as a Transport for BFCP March 2015
the remote endpoint) and should be set to a value of 9, which is the
discard port. Connection attribute and port MUST follow the rules of
[RFC4145]
Some web browsers do not allow non-secure WebSocket connections to be
made. So, while the recommendation to use Secure WebSockets (i.e.
TCP/WSS) is for security reasons, it is also to achieve maximum
compatibility among clients.
6.2. SDP Media Attributes
[I-D.ram-bfcpbis-sdp-ws-uri] defines a new SDP attributes to indicate
the connection URI for the WebSocket Client. The SDP attribute 'ws-
uri' defined in section 3.1 of [I-D.ram-bfcpbis-sdp-ws-uri] MUST be
used when BFCP runs on top of WS, which in turn runs on top of TCP.
The SDP attribute 'wss-uri' defined in section 3.2 of
[I-D.ram-bfcpbis-sdp-ws-uri] MUST be used when BFCP runs on top of
WSS, which in turn runs on top of TLS and TCP. When the 'ws-uri' or
'wss-uri' attribute is present in the media section of the SDP, the
IP and port information provided in the 'c' lines SHALL be ignored
and the full URI SHALL be used instead to open the WebSocket
connection. The port provided in the 'm' line SHALL be ignored too,
as the a=ws-uri or a=wss-uri SHALL provide port number when needed.
7. SDP Offer/Answer Procedures
7.1. General
An endpoint (i.e., both the offerer and the answerer) MUST create an
SDP media description ("m=" line) for each BFCP-over-WebSocket media
stream and MUST assign a TCP/WSS/BFCP value to the "proto" field of
the "m=" line. Furthermore, the SDP answerer (Server) MUST add an
"a=ws-uri" or "a=wss-uri" attribute in the "m=" line of each BFCP-
over-WebSocket media stream depending on whether it is WS or WSS.
This new attribute MUST follow the syntax defined in
[I-D.ram-bfcpbis-sdp-ws-uri]. The procedures in this section apply
to an "m=" line associated with a BFCP-over-WebSocket media stream.
7.2. Generating the Initial Offer
An SDP offerer in order to negotiate BFCP-over-WebSocket MUST
generate an "m=" line which has:
The SDP attributes as defined in Section 4 of
[I-D.ietf-bfcpbis-rfc4583bis]
The "proto" value in the "m=" line MUST be TCP/WSS/BFCP if
WebSocket is over TLS, else it MUST be TCP/WS/BFCP.
Pascual, et al. Expires September 24, 2015 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft WebSocket as a Transport for BFCP March 2015
The offerer SHOULD assign the SDP "setup" attribute with a value of
"active" (the offerer will be the initiator of the outgoing TCP
connection), unless the offerer insists on being a receiver of an
incoming connection, in which case the offerer SHOULD use a value of
"passive". The offerer MUST NOT assign an SDP "setup" attribute with
a "holdconn" value. If the offerer assigns the SDP "setup" attribute
with a value of "passive", the offerer MUST be prepared to receive an
incoming TCP connection on the IP and port tuple advertised in the
"c=" line and audio/video ports of the BFCP media stream before it
receives the SDP answer.
The following is an example of an "m=" line for a BFCP connection:
Offer (browser):
m=application 9 TCP/WSS/BFCP *
a=setup:active
a=connection:new
a=floorctrl:c-only
m=audio 55000 RTP/AVP 0
m=video 55002 RTP/AVP 31
In the above example, the client is intending to setup the TLS /TCP
connection and hence the port is set to a value of 9, which is the
discard port.
7.3. Generating the Answer
If the answerer accepts the offered BFCP-over-WebSocket transport
connection, in the associated SDP answer, the answerer MUST assign an
SDP "setup" attribute with a value of either "active" or "passive",
according to the procedures in [RFC4145]. The answerer MUST NOT
assign an SDP "setup" attribute with a value of "holdconn".
If the answerer assigns an SDP "setup" attribute with a value of
"active", the answerer MUST initiate the WebSocket connection
handshake by acting as client on the negotiated media stream, towards
the IP address and port of the offerer using the procedures described
in [RFC6455]. Apart from the SDP attributes of the BFCP media
stream, the answer MUST have an "a=ws-uri" or "a=wss-uri" attribute
depending on whether BFCP is running over WS or WSS. This attribute
MUST follow the syntax defined in [I-D.ram-bfcpbis-sdp-ws-uri]. The
"proto" value in the "m=" line MUST be TCP/WSS/BFCP if WebSocket is
run on TLS, else it MUST be TCP/WS/BFCP.
The following example shows a case where the server responds with a
BFCP media stream over a WebSocket connection running TLS. It shows
an answer "m=" line for the BFCP connection. In this example since
Pascual, et al. Expires September 24, 2015 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft WebSocket as a Transport for BFCP March 2015
WebSockets is running over TLS, the server answers back with "a=wss-
uri" attribute in SDP indicating the connection URI:
Answer (server):
m=application 50000 TCP/WSS/BFCP *
a=setup:passive
a=connection:new
a=wss-uri:wss://bfcp-ws.example.com?token=3170449312
a=floorctrl:s-only
a=confid:4321
a=userid:1234
a=floorid:1 m-stream:10
a=floorid:2 m-stream:11
m=audio 50002 RTP/AVP 0
a=label:10
m=video 50004 RTP/AVP 31
a=label:11
7.4. Offerer Processing of the Answer
When the offerer receives an SDP answer, if the offerer ends up being
active it MUST initiate the WebSocket connection handshake by sending
a GET message on the negotiated media stream, towards the IP address
and port of the answerer, as per the procedures described in
[RFC6455].
7.5. Modifying the Session
Once an offer/answer exchange has been completed, either endpoint MAY
send a new offer in order to modify the session. The endpoints can
reuse the existing WebSocket connection if the ws-uri values and the
transport parameters indicated by each endpoint are unchanged.
Otherwise, following the rules for the initial offer/answer exchange,
the endpoints can negotiate and create a new WebSocket connection on
top of TLS/TCP or TCP.
8. Authentication
Section 9 of [I-D.ietf-bfcpbis-rfc4582bis] states that BFCP clients
and floor control servers SHOULD authenticate each other prior to
accepting messages, and RECOMMENDS that mutual TLS/DTLS
authentication be used. However, browser-based WebSocket clients
have no control over the use of TLS in the WebSocket API [WS-API], so
it is RECOMMENDED that standard Web-based methods for client and
server authentication are used, as follows.
When a BFCP WebSocket client connects to a BFCP WebSocket server, it
SHOULD use TCP/WSS as its transport. The WebSocket client SHOULD
Pascual, et al. Expires September 24, 2015 [Page 9]
Internet-Draft WebSocket as a Transport for BFCP March 2015
inspect the TLS certificate offered by the server and verify that it
is valid.
Since the WebSocket API does not distinguish between certificate
errors and other kinds of failure to establish a connection, it is
expected that browser vendors will warn end users directly of any
kind of problem with the server certificate.
A floor control server that receives a message over TCP/WS can
request the use of TCP/WSS by generating an Error message, as
described in Section 13.8 of [I-D.ietf-bfcpbis-rfc4582bis], with an
Error code with a value of 9 (use TLS).
Prior to sending BFCP requests, a BFCP WebSocket client connects to a
BFCP WebSocket server and performs the connection handshake. As
described in Section 3 the handshake procedure involves a HTTP GET
method request from the client and a response from the server
including an HTTP 101 status code.
In order to authorize the WebSocket connection, the BFCP WebSocket
server MAY inspect any cookie [RFC6265] headers present in the HTTP
GET request. For many web applications the value of such a cookie is
provided by the web server once the user has authenticated themselves
to the web server, which could be done by many existing mechanisms.
As an alternative method, the BFCP WebSocket Server could request
HTTP authentication by replying to the Client's GET method request
with a HTTP 401 status code. The WebSocket protocol [RFC6455] covers
this usage in section 4.1:
If the status code received from the server is not 101, the
WebSocket client stack handles the response per HTTP [RFC2616]
procedures, in particular the client might perform authentication
if it receives 401 status code.
9. Security Considerations
Considerations from [I-D.ietf-bfcpbis-rfc4582bis],
[I-D.ietf-bfcpbis-rfc4583bis] and RFC5018 [RFC5018] apply.
BFCP relies on lower-layer security mechanisms to provide replay and
integrity protection and confidentiality. It is RECOMMENDED that the
BFCP traffic transported over a WebSocket communication be protected
by using a secure WebSocket connection (using TLS [RFC5246] over
TCP).

10. IANA Considerations
10.1. Registration of the WebSocket BFCP Sub-Protocol
This specification requests IANA to register the WebSocket BFCP sub-
protocol under the "WebSocket Subprotocol Name" Registry with the
following data:
Subprotocol Identifier: bfcp
Subprotocol Common Name: WebSocket Transport for BFCP (Binary Floor
Control Protocol)
Subprotocol Definition: RFCXXXX
[[NOTE TO RFC EDITOR: Please change XXXX to the number assigned to
this specification, and remove this paragraph on publication.]]
10.2. Registration of the 'TCP/WS/BFCP' and 'TCP/WSS/BFCP' SDP 'proto'
Values
This document defines two new values for the SDP 'proto' field under
the Session Description Protocol (SDP) Parameters registry. The
resulting entries are shown in Figure 1 below:
