Internet-Draft LoST Sync February 2009
Abstract
The Location-to-Service Translation (LoST) protocol is an XML-based
protocol for mapping service identifiers and geodetic or civic
location information to service URIs and service boundaries. In
particular, it can be used to determine the location-appropriate
Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) for emergency services.
The main data structure, the XML <mapping> element, used for
encapsulating information about service boundaries is defined in the
LoST protocol specification and circumscribes the region within which
all locations map to the same service URI or set of URIs for a given
service.
This document defines an XML protocol to exchange these mappings
between two nodes. As motived in the Location-to-URL Mapping
Architecture document this mechanism is useful for the
synchronization of top-level LoST Forest Guides. This document is,
however, even useful in a deployment that does not make use of the
LoST protocol but purely wants to distribute service boundaries.

Internet-Draft LoST Sync February 2009
1. Introduction
The LoST (Location-to-Service Translation) protocol [RFC5222] maps
service identifiers and geodetic or civic location information to
service URIs. As specified in the LoST architecture description
[I-D.ietf-ecrit-mapping-arch], LoST servers act in different roles
that cooperate to provide an ubiquitous, globally scalable and
resilient mapping service. In the LoST mapping architecture, servers
can peer, i.e., have an on-going data exchange relationship. Peering
relationships are set up manually, based on local policies. A server
can peer with any number of other servers. Forest guides peer with
other forest guides; resolvers peer with forest guides and other
resolvers (in the same cluster); authoritative mapping servers peer
with forest guides and other authoritative servers, either in the
same cluster or above or below them in the tree. If the type of LoST
role does not matter, we refer to LoST protocol participants as LoST
nodes.
Authoritative mapping servers push coverage regions "up" the tree,
i.e., from child nodes to parent nodes. The child informs the parent
of the geospatial or civic region that it covers for a specific
service.
The coverage regions of different authoritative servers can overlap.
This should only happen if the authoritative servers are
misconfigured or if there is a political dispute that involves
competing claims for the same region. A server must detect such
colliding claims and implement a policy to resolve the collision,
either through an automated policy mechanism or manual intervention.
This document defines two types of exchanges and those are best
described by the exchange between two nodes as shown in Figure 1 and
Figure 2. The protocol exchange always runs between a LoST Sync
client and a LoST Sync server even through the roles are reversed for
the two available exchanges and logically the two nodes might often
be peers than in a client-server relationship. Node A in the example
exchanges of Figure 1 and Figure 2 has mappings that Node B is going
to retrieve.
The <getMappingsRequest> and <getMappingsResponse> exchange allows a
LoST Sync client to request mappings from a LoST Sync server. As
described in Section 3 the <getMappingsRequest> message may contain
further information to scope the retrieval of all available mappings
on the LoST Sync server node.

Figure 1: Querying for Mappings with a <getMappingsRequest> Message
The <pushMappingsRequest> and <pushMappingsResponse> exchange allows
a LoST Sync client to push mappings to LoST Sync server. The
assumption is being made that Node A and B have previously been
configured in a way that they push mappings in such a fashion and
that Node A maintains state about the mappings that have to be pushed
to Node B. No subscribe alike mechanism is defined in this document
that would allow Node B to tell Node A about what mappings it is
interested.

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 RFC 2119 [RFC2119].
This document reuses terminology introduced by the mapping
architecture document [I-D.ietf-ecrit-mapping-arch].
Throughout this document we use the term LoST Sync client and LoST
Sync server to denote the protocol end points of the exchange. The
protocol is referred as LoST Sync within the text.

3. Querying for Mappings with a <getMappingsRequest> /
<getMappingsResponse> Exchange
3.1. LoST Sync Client's Behavior
A LoST Sync client has a few ways to retrieve mapping elements from a
LoST Sync server node. A mechanisms that is suitable when no
mappings are available on the client side is to submit an empty
<getMappingsRequest> message, as shown in Figure 3. The intent by
the client thereby is to retrieve all mappings from the other
communication peer. Note that the request is purely between the two
nodes and does not propagate further.
Next, a client that has already obtained mappings in previous
exchanges may want to check whether these mappings have been updated
in the meanwhile. The policy when to poll for updated mapping
information is outside the scope of this document. The
<getMappingsRequest> message with one or multiple <exists> child
element(s) is a suitable mechanism to reduce the number of returned
mappings to those that have been updated and also to obtain missing
mappings.
Finally, a client may issue a <getMappingsRequest> message with one
or multiple <scope> child element(s). The query for mappings can be
restricted by adding 'source', 'sourceId' and 'service' attributes to
the <scope> element. If the 'source' attribute is specified, only
mappings from this particular source attribute MUST be returned.
Similarly, the 'sourceId' attribute restricts mappings to those
matching the attribute from the 'source' named. The same holds true
for the 'service' attribute. The comparison operation is a bit-wise
equality match.
In response to the <getMappingsRequest> message the client waits for
the <getMappingsResponse> message. In case of a successful response
the client stores the received mappings and determines which mappings
to replace.
3.2. LoST Sync Server's Behavior
When a LoST Sync server receives an empty <getMappingsRequest>
message then all locally available mappings MUST be returned
(assuming that the client has been properly authenticated and
authorized).
When a LoST Sync server receives a <getMappingsRequest> message with
one or multiple <exists> child element(s) then it MUST consult with
the local mapping database to determine whether any of the mappings
of the client is stale and whether there are mappings locally that
Schulzrinne & Tschofenig Expires August 19, 2009 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft LoST Sync February 2009
the client does not yet have. The former can be determined by
finding mappings corresponding to the 'source' and 'sourceID'
attribut where a mapping with a more recent lastUpdated date exists.
When a LoST Sync server receives a <getMappingsRequest> message with
one or multiple <query> child element(s) then it MUST treat the
mappings returned of all <query> child elements with a union
operation, i.e. the results are concatinated with duplicates removed.
The number of mappings that are being returned by each individual
<query> element MUST be determined by looking at all the locally
available mappings and considering only those where the values of the
'source', 'sourceId' and 'service' attributes match. Note that a
query may have only one of these attributes set.
Processing a <getMappingsRequest> message MAY lead to a successful
response in the form of a <getMappingsResponse> or an <errors>
message. Only the <badRequest>, <forbidden>, <internalError>,
<serverTimeout> errors, defined in [RFC5222], are used by this
specification. Neither the <redirect> nor the <warnings> messages
are reused by this message.
3.3. Examples
The first examples show the simplest <getMappingsRequest> message.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<getMappingsRequest xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:lostsync1"/>
Figure 3: Example of empty <getMappingsRequest> message
An further example request is shown in Figure 4, the corresponding
response in Figure 6. In this example a LoST node requests a
specific mapping for source="authoritative.bar.example" and
sourceId="7e3f40b098c711dbb6060800200c9a66" that is fresher than
"2006-11-01T01:00:00Z".

4. Pushing Mappings via <pushMappings> and <pushMappingsResponse>
4.1. LoST Sync Client's Behavior
When a LoST Sync node obtains new information that is of interest to
its peers, it MAY push the new mappings to its peers. Configuration
settings at both peers decide whether this functionality is used.
New mappings might arrive through non-LoST means, such as a manual
addition to the local mappings database, or through the interaction
with other LoST nodes. Mappings may also be deleted and this may
trigger events.
A sending node keeps track with which recipient it has exchanged
mapping elements with. As discussed in Section 5.1 of [RFC5222],
mapping elements are identified by the 'source', 'sourceID' and
'lastUpdated' attributes. A mapping is considered the same if these
three attributes match. LoST Sync nodes MUST NOT push the same
information to the same peer twice.
A LoST Sync client MUST send a <pushMappings> request containing one
or more <mapping> elements.
To delete a mapping, the content of the mapping is left empty. The
node can delete the mapping from its internal mapping database, but
has to remember which peers it has distributed this update to. The
'expires' attribute is required, but ignored. If an attempt is made
to delete a non-existent mapping, the request is silently ignored.
4.2. LoST Sync Server's Behavior
When a LoST Sync Server receives a <pushMappingsRequest> message then
a newly received mapping M' MUST replace an existing mapping M if all
of the following conditions hold:
1. M'.source equals M.source
2. M'.sourceID' equals M.sourceID
3. M'.lastUpdated greater than M.lastUpdated
If the received mapping M' does not update any existing mapping M
then it MUST be added to the local cache as an independent mapping.
If a <pushMappingsRequest> message with an empty <mapping> element is
received then a corresponding mapping has to be determined based on
the 'source', 'sourceID' and 'lastUpdated' attributes. If a mapping
has been found then it MUST be deleted. If no mapping can be
identified then an <errors> response MUST be returned that contains
Schulzrinne & Tschofenig Expires August 19, 2009 [Page 12]
Internet-Draft LoST Sync February 2009
the <notDeleted> child element. The <notDeleted> element MAY carry a
<message> element and MUST contain the <mapping> element(s) that
caused the error.
The response to a <pushMappingsRequest> request is a
<pushMappingsResponse> message. With this specification, a
successful response message returns no additional elements, whereas
an <errors> response is returned in the response message, if the
request failed. Only the <badRequest>, <forbidden>, <internalError>
or <serverTimeout> errors defined in Section 13.1 of [RFC5222], are
used. The <redirect> and <warnings> messages are not used for this
query/response.
If the set of nodes that are synchronizing their data does not form a
tree, it is possible that the same information arrives through
several other nodes. This is unavoidable, but generally only imposes
a modest overhead. (It would be possible to create a spanning tree
in the same fashion as IP multicast, but the complexity does not seem
warranted, given the relatively low volume of data.)
4.3. Example
An example is shown in Figure 7. Image a LoST node that obtained two
new mappings identified as follows:
o source="authoritative.example"
sourceId="7e3f40b098c711dbb6060800200c9a66" lastUpdated="2008-11-
26T01:00:00Z"
o source="authoritative.example"
sourceId="7e3f40b098c711dbb606011111111111" lastUpdated="2008-11-
01T01:00:00Z"
These two mappings have to be added to the peer's mapping database.
Additionally, the following mapping has to be deleted:
o source="nj.us.example" sourceId="123" lastUpdated="2008-11-
01T01:00:00Z"

5. Transport
LoST Sync needs an underlying protocol transport mechanism to carry
requests and responses. This document defines the use of LoST Sync
over HTTP and LoST over HTTP-over-TLS. Client and server developers
are reminded that full support of RFC 2616 HTTP facilities is
expected. If LoST Sync clients or servers re-implement HTTP, rather
than using available servers or client code as a base, careful
attention must be paid to full interoperability. Other transport
mechanisms are left to future documents. The available transport
mechanisms are determined through the use of the LoST U-NAPTR
application. In protocols that support content type indication, LoST
Sync uses the media type application/lostsync+xml.
When using HTTP [RFC2616] and HTTP-over-TLS [RFC2818], LoST Sync
messages use the HTTP POST method. The HTTP request MUST use the
Cache-Control response directive "no-cache" to HTTP-level caching
even by caches that have been configured to return stale responses to
client requests.
All LoST Sync responses, including those indicating a LoST warning or
error, are carried in 2xx responses, typically 200 (OK). Other 2xx
responses, in particular 203 (Non-authoritative information) may be
returned by HTTP caches that disregard the caching instructions. 3xx,
4xx and 5xx HTTP response codes indicates that the HTTP request
itself failed or was redirected; these responses do not contain any
LoST Sync XML elements.
The HTTP URL is derived from the LoST Sync server name via U-NAPTR
application.

7. Security Considerations
The LoST security considerations are discussed in [RFC5222]. The
operations described in this document involve mutually-trusting LoST
nodes. These nodes need to authenticate each other, using mechanisms
such as HTTP Digest [RFC2617], HTTP Basic [RFC2617] over TLS
[RFC5246] or TLS client and server certificates.
