Discovering Provisioning Domain Names and Data
draft-ietf-intarea-provisioning-domains-07
Abstract
Provisioning Domains (PvDs) are defined as consistent sets of network
configuration information. This allows hosts to manage connections
to multiple networks and interfaces simultaneously, such as when a
home router provides connectivity through both a broadband and
cellular network provider.
This document defines a mechanism for explicitly identifying PvDs
through a Router Advertisement (RA) option. This RA option announces
a PvD identifier, which hosts can compare to differentiate between
PvDs. The option can directly carry some information about a PvD and
can optionally point to additional PvD information that can be
retrieved using HTTP over TLS.

1. Introduction
Provisioning Domains (PvDs) are defined in [RFC7556] as consistent
sets of network configuration information. This information includes
properties that are traditionally associated with a single networking
interface, such as source addresses, DNS configuration, proxy
configuration, and gateway addresses.
Clients that are aware of PvDs can take advantage of multiple network
interfaces simultaneously. This enables using two PvDs in parallel
for separate connections or for multi-path transports.
While most PvDs today are discovered implicitly (such as by receiving
information via Router Advertisements from a router on a network that
a client host directly connects to), [RFC7556] also defines the
notion of Explicit PvDs. IPsec Virtual Private Networks are
considered Explicit PvDs, but Explicit PvDs can also be discovered
via the local network router. Discovering Explicit PvDs allows two
key advancements in managing multiple PvDs:
1. The ability to discover and use multiple PvDs on a single
interface, such as when a local router can provide connectivity
to two different Internet Service Providers.
2. The ability to associate additional informations about PvDs to
describe the properties of the network.
While [RFC7556] defines the concept of Explicit PvDs, it does not
define the mechanism for discovering multiple Explicit PvDs on a
single network and their additional information.
This document specifies a way to identify PvDs with Fully Qualified
Domain Names (FQDN), called PvD IDs. Those identifiers are
advertised in a new Router Advertisement (RA) [RFC4861] option called
the PvD ID Router Advertisement option which, when present,
associates the PvD ID with all the information present in the Router
Advertisement as well as any configuration object, such as addresses,
deriving from it. The PVD ID Router Advertisement option may also
contain a set of other RA options. Since such options are only
considered by hosts implementing this specification, network
operators may configure hosts that are 'PvD-aware' with PvDs that are
ignored by other hosts.
Pfister, et al. Expires April 2, 2020 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft Provisioning Domains September 2019
Since PvD IDs are used to identify different ways to access the
internet, multiple PvDs (with different PvD IDs) can be provisioned
on a single host interface. Similarly, the same PvD ID could be used
on different interfaces of a host in order to inform that those PvDs
ultimately provide equivalent services.
This document also introduces a mechanism for hosts to retrieve
optional additional information related to a specific PvD by means of
an HTTP over TLS query using an URI derived from the PvD ID. The
retrieved JSON object contains additional information that would
typically be considered too large to be directly included in the
Router Advertisement, but might be considered useful to the
applications, or even sometimes users, when choosing which PvD should
be used.
For example, if Alice has both a cellular network provider and a
broadband provider in her home, her PvD-aware devices and
applications would be aware of both available uplinks. These
applications could fail-over between these networks, or run
connections over both (potentially using multi-path transports).
Applications could also select specific uplinks based on the
properties of the network; for example, if the cellular network
provides free high-quality video streaming, a video-streaming
application could select that network while most of the other traffic
on Alice's device uses the broadband provider.
1.1. Specification of Requirements
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
"OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP
14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all
capitals, as shown here.
2. Terminology
This document uses the following terminology:
Provisioning Domain (PvD): A set of network configuration
information; for more information, see [RFC7556].
PvD ID: A Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) used to identify a PvD.
Explicit PvD: A PvD uniquely identified with a PvD ID. For more
information, see [RFC7556].
Pfister, et al. Expires April 2, 2020 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft Provisioning Domains September 2019
Implicit PvD: A PvD that, in the absence of a PvD ID, is identified
by the host interface to which it is attached and the address of
the advertising router. See also [RFC7556].
PvD-aware host: A host that supports the association of network
configuration information into PvDs and the use of these PvDs as
described in this document. Also named PvD-aware node in
[RFC7556].
3. Provisioning Domain Identification using Router Advertisements
Explicit PvDs are identified by a PvD ID. The PvD ID is a Fully
Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) which MUST belong to the network
operator in order to avoid naming collisions. The same PvD ID MAY be
used in several access networks when they ultimately provide
identical services (e.g., in all home networks subscribed to the same
service); else, the PvD ID MUST be different to follow Section 2.4 of
[RFC7556].
3.1. PvD ID Option for Router Advertisements
This document introduces a Router Advertisement (RA) option called
PvD Option. It is used to convey the FQDN identifying a given PvD
(see Figure 1, bind the PvD ID with configuration information
received over DHCPv4 (see Section 3.4.2), enable the use of HTTP over
TLS to retrieve the PvD Additional Information JSON object (see
Section 4), as well as contain any other RA options which would
otherwise be valid in the RA.

PvD ID FQDN: The FQDN used as PvD ID encoded in DNS format, as
described in Section 3.1 of [RFC1035]. Domain names compression
described in Section 4.1.4 of [RFC1035] MUST NOT be used.

both of these fields. The 'Checksum' MUST be set to 0 by the
sender; non-zero checksums MUST be ignored by the receiver. All
other fields are to be set and parsed as specified in [RFC4861] or
any updating documents.

3.2. Router Behavior
A router MAY send RAs containing one PvD Option, but MUST NOT include
more than one PvD Option in each RA. The PvD Option MUST NOT contain
further PvD Options.
The PvD Option MAY contain zero, one, or more RA options which would
otherwise be valid as part of the same RA. Such options are
processed by PvD-aware hosts, while ignored by other hosts per
section 4.2 of [RFC4861].
In order to provide multiple different PvDs, a router MUST send
multiple RAs. If more than one different Implicit PvDs are
advertised, the RAs MUST be sent from different link-local source
addresses. Explicit PvDs MAY share link-local source addresses with
an Implicit PvD and any number of other Explicit PvDs.
In other words, different Explicit PvDs MAY be advertised with RAs
using the same link-local source address; but different Implicit
PvDs, advertised by different RAs, MUST use different link-local
addresses because these Implicit PvDs are identified by the source
addresses of the RAs.
Pfister, et al. Expires April 2, 2020 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft Provisioning Domains September 2019
As specified in [RFC4861], when the set of options causes the size of
an advertisement to exceed the link MTU, multiple router
advertisements can be sent, each containing a subset of the options.
In such cases, the PvD Option header (i.e., all fields except the
'Options' field) MUST be repeated in all the transmitted RAs. The
options within the 'Options' field, MAY be transmitted only once,
included in one of the transmitted PvD Options.
3.3. Non-PvD-aware Host Behavior
As the PvD Option has a new option code, non-PvD-aware hosts will
simply ignore the PvD Option and all the options it contains (see
section 4.2 of [RFC4861]. This ensure the backward compatibility
required in Section 3.3 of [RFC7556]. This behavior allows for a
mixed-mode network with a mix of PvD-aware and non-PvD-aware hosts
coexist.
3.4. PvD-aware Host Behavior
Hosts MUST associate received RAs and included configuration
information (e.g., Router Valid Lifetime, Prefix Information
[RFC4861], Recursive DNS Server [RFC8106], Routing Information
[RFC4191] options) with the Explicit PvD identified by the first PvD
Option present in the received RA, if any, or with the Implicit PvD
identified by the host interface and the source address of the
received RA otherwise.
In case multiple PvD Options are found in a given RA, hosts MUST
ignore all but the first PvD Option.
If a host receives PvD Options flags that it does not recognize
(currently in the Reserved field), it MUST ignore these flags.
Similarly, hosts MUST associate all network configuration objects
(e.g., default routers, addresses, more specific routes, DNS
Recursive Resolvers) with the PvD associated with the RA which last
updated the object. For example, addresses that are generated using
a received Prefix Information option (PIO) are associated with the
PvD of the last received RA which included the given PIO.
PvD IDs MUST be compared in a case-insensitive manner as defined by
[RFC4343]. For example, "pvd.example.com." or "PvD.Example.coM."
would refer to the same PvD.
While resolving names, executing the default address selection
algorithm [RFC6724] or executing the default router selection
algorithm when forwarding packets ([RFC4861], [RFC4191] and
Pfister, et al. Expires April 2, 2020 [Page 9]
Internet-Draft Provisioning Domains September 2019
[RFC8028]), hosts and applications MAY consider only the
configuration associated with an arbitrary set of PvDs.
For example, a host MAY associate a given process with a specific
PvD, or a specific set of PvDs, while associating another process
with another PvD. A PvD-aware application might also be able to
select, on a per-connection basis, which PvDs should be used. In
particular, constrained devices such as small battery operated
devices (e.g. IoT), or devices with limited CPU or memory resources
may purposefully use a single PvD while ignoring some received RAs
containing different PvD IDs.
The way an application expresses its desire to use a given PvD, or a
set of PvDs, or the way this selection is enforced, is out of the
scope of this document. Useful insights about these considerations
can be found in [I-D.kline-mif-mpvd-api-reqs].
3.4.1. DHCPv6 configuration association
When a host retrieves stateless configuration elements using DHCPv6
(e.g., DNS recursive resolvers or DNS domain search lists [RFC3646]),
they MUST be associated with all the explicit and implicit PvDs
received on the same interface and contained in a RA with the O-flag
set [RFC4861].
When a host retrieves stateful assignments using DHCPv6, such
assignments MUST be associated with the received PvD which was
received with RAs with the M-flag set and including a matching PIO.
A PIO is considered to match a DHCPv6 assignment when the IPv6 prefix
from the PIO includes the assignment from DHCPv6. For example, if a
PvD's associated PIO defines the prefix 2001:db8:cafe::/64, a DHCPv6
IA_NA message that assigns the address 2001:db8:cafe::1234:4567 would
be considered to match.
In cases where an address would be assigned by DHCPv6 and no matching
PvD could be found, hosts MAY associate the assigned address with any
implicit PvD received on the same interface or to multiple of
implicit PvD received on the same interface. This is intended to
resolve backward compatibility issues with rare deployments choosing
to assign addresses with DHCPv6 while not sending any matching PIO.
3.4.2. DHCPv4 configuration association
Associating DHCPv4 [RFC2131] configuration elements with Explicit
PvDs allows hosts to treat a set of IPv4 and IPv6 configurations as a
single PvD with shared properties. For example, consider a router
that provides two different uplinks. One could be a broadband
network that has data rate and streaming properties described in PvD
Pfister, et al. Expires April 2, 2020 [Page 10]
Internet-Draft Provisioning Domains September 2019
additional information and that provides both IPv4 and IPv6 network
access. The other could be a cellular network that provides only
IPv6 network access, and uses NAT64 [RFC6146]. The broadband network
can be represented by an Explicit PvD that points to the additional
information, and also marks association with DHCPv4 information. The
cellular network can be represented by a different Explicit PvD that
is not associated with DHCPv4.
When a PvD-aware host retrieves configuration elements from DHCPv4,
the information is associated either with a single Explicit PvD on
that interface, or else with all Implicit PvDs on the same interface.
An Explicit PvD indicates its association with DHCPv4 information by
setting the L-flag in the PvD RA Option. If there is exactly one
Explicit PvD that sets this flag, hosts MUST associate the DHCPv4
information with that PvD. Multiple Explicit PvDs on the same
interface marking this flag is a misconfiguration, and hosts SHOULD
NOT associate the DHCPv4 information with any Explicit PvD in this
case.
If no single Explicit PvD claims association with DHCPv4, the
configuration elements coming from DHCPv4 MUST be associated with the
all Implicit PvDs identified by the interface on which the DHCPv4
transaction happened. This maintains existing host behavior.
3.4.3. Connection Sharing by the Host
The situation when a host shares connectivity from an upstream
interface (e.g. cellular) to a downstream interface (e.g. Wi-Fi) is
known as 'tethering'. Techniques such as ND-proxy [RFC4389], 64share
[RFC7278] or prefix delegation (e.g. using DHCPv6-PD [RFC8415]) may
be used for that purpose.
Whenever the RAs received from the upstream interface contain a PVD
RA option, hosts that are sharing connectivity SHOULD include a PVD
option within the RAs sent downstream with:
o The same PVD-ID FQDN
o The same H-bit, Delay and Sequence Number values
o The L bit set whenever the host is sharing IPv4 connectivity
received from the same upstream interface
o The bits from the Reserved field set to 0
The values of the R-bit, Router Advertisement message header and
Options field depend on whether the connectivity should be shared
Pfister, et al. Expires April 2, 2020 [Page 11]
Internet-Draft Provisioning Domains September 2019
only with PvD-aware hosts or not (see Section 3.2). In particular,
all options received within the upstream PvD Option and included in
the downstream RA SHOULD be included in the downstream PvD Option.
3.4.4. Usage of DNS Servers
PvD-aware hosts can be provisioned with recursive DNS servers via RA
options passed within an Explicit PvD, via RA options associated with
an Implicit PvD, via DHCPv6 or DHCPv4, or from some other
provisioning mechanism that creates an Implicit PvD (such as a VPN).
In all of these cases, the DNS server addresses SHOULD be associated
with the corresponding PvD. Specifically, queries sent to a
configured recursive DNS server SHOULD be sent from a local IP
address that was provisioned by the PvD via RA or DHCP. Answers
received from the DNS server SHOULD only be used on the same PvD.
PvD-aware applications will be able to select which PvD(s) to use for
DNS resolution and connections, which allows them to effectively use
multiple Explicit PvDs. In order to support non-PvD-aware
applications, however, PvD-aware hosts SHOULD ensure that non-PvD-
aware name resolution APIs like "getaddrinfo" only use resolvers from
a single PvD for each query. More discussion is provided in
Section 5.2.1 of [RFC7556].
Maintaining the correct usage of DNS within PvDs avoids various
practical errors, such as:
o A PvD associated with a VPN or otherwise private network may
provide DNS answers that contain addresses inaccessible over
another PvD.
o A PvD that uses a NAT64 [RFC6146] and DNS64 [RFC6147] will
synthesize IPv6 addresses in DNS answers that are not globally
routable, and would be invalid on other PvDs. Conversely, an IPv4
address resolved via DNS on another PvD cannot be directly used on
a NAT64 network.
4. Provisioning Domain Additional Information
Additional information about the network characteristics can be
retrieved based on the PvD ID. This set of information is called PvD
Additional Information, and is encoded as a JSON object [RFC8259].
This JSON object is restricted to the restricted profile of I-JSON,
as defined in [RFC7493].
The purpose of this JSON object is to provide additional information
to applications on a client host about the connectivity that is
provided using a given interface and source address. It typically
Pfister, et al. Expires April 2, 2020 [Page 12]
Internet-Draft Provisioning Domains September 2019
includes data that would be considered too large, or not critical
enough, to be provided within an RA option. The information
contained in this object MAY be used by the operating system, network
libraries, applications, or users, in order to decide which set of
PvDs should be used for which connection, as described in
Section 3.4.
The additional information related to a PvD is specifically intended
to be optional, and is targeted at optimizing or informing the
behavior of user-facing hosts. This information can be extended to
provide hints for host system behavior (such as captive portal or
walled-garden PvD detection) or application behavior (describing
application-specific services offered on a given PvD). This content
may not be appropriate for light-weight Internet of Things (IoT)
devices. IoT devices might need only a subset of the information,
and would in some cases prefer a smaller representation like CBOR
([RFC7049]). Delivering a reduced version of the PvD Additional
Information designed for such devices is not defined in this
document.
4.1. Retrieving the PvD Additional Information
When the H-flag of the PvD Option is set, hosts MAY attempt to
retrieve the PvD Additional Information associated with a given PvD
by performing an HTTP over TLS [RFC2818] GET query to https://<PvD-
ID>/.well-known/pvd [RFC8615]. Inversely, hosts MUST NOT do so
whenever the H-flag is not set.
HTTP requests and responses for PvD additional information use the
"application/pvd+json" media type (see Section 8). Clients SHOULD
include this media type as an Accept header in their GET requests,
and servers MUST mark this media type as their Content-Type header in
responses.
Note that the DNS name resolution of the PvD ID, the PKI (Public Key
Infrastructure) checks as well as the actual query MUST be performed
using the considered PvD. In other words, the name resolution, PKI
checks, source address selection, as well as the next-hop router
selection MUST be performed while using exclusively the set of
configuration information attached with the PvD, as defined in
Section 3.4. In some cases, it may therefore be necessary to wait
for an address to be available for use (e.g., once the Duplicate
Address Detection or DHCPv6 processes are complete) before initiating
the HTTP over TLS query. If the host has a temporary address per
[RFC4941] in this PvD, then hosts SHOULD use a temporary address to
fetch the PvD Additional Information and SHOULD deprecate the used
temporary address and generate a new temporary address afterward.
Pfister, et al. Expires April 2, 2020 [Page 13]
Internet-Draft Provisioning Domains September 2019
If the HTTP status of the answer is greater than or equal to 400 the
host MUST abandon and consider that there is no additional PvD
information. If the HTTP status of the answer is between 300 and
399, inclusive, it MUST follow the redirection(s). If the HTTP
status of the answer is between 200 and 299, inclusive, the host MAY
get a file containing a single JSON object.
After retrieval of the PvD Additional Information, hosts MUST
remember the last Sequence Number value received in the RA including
the same PvD ID. Whenever a new RA for the same PvD is received with
a different Sequence Number value, or whenever the expiry date for
the additional information is reached, hosts MUST deprecate the
additional information and stop using it until a new JSON object is
retrieved.
Hosts retrieving a new PvD Additional Information object MUST check
for the presence and validity of the mandatory fields specified in
Section 4.3. A retrieved object including an expiration time that is
already past or missing a mandatory element MUST be ignored.
In order to avoid synchronized queries toward the server hosting the
PvD Additional Information when an object expires, object updates are
delayed by a randomized backoff time.
o When a host performs a JSON object update after it detected a
change in the PvD Option Sequence Number, it MUST add a delay
before sending the query. The target time for the delay is
calculated as a random time between zero and 2**(Delay * 2)
milliseconds, where 'Delay' corresponds to the 4-bit unsigned
integer in the last received PvD Option.
o When a host last retrieved a JSON object at time A that includes a
expiry time B using the "expires" key, and the host is configured
to keep the PvD information up to date, it MUST add some
randomness into its calculation of the time to fetch the update.
The target time for fetching the updated object is calculated as a
uniformly random time in the interval [(B-A)/2,B].
In the example Figure 2, the delay field value is 5, this means that
host calculates its delay by choosing a random number between 0 and
2**(5 * 2) milliseconds, i.e., between 0 and 1024 milliseconds.
Since the 'Delay' value is directly within the PvD Option rather than
the object itself, an operator may perform a push-based update by
incrementing the Sequence value while changing the Delay value
depending on the criticality of the update and its PvD Additional
Information servers capacity.
Pfister, et al. Expires April 2, 2020 [Page 14]
Internet-Draft Provisioning Domains September 2019
The PvD Additional Information object includes a set of IPv6 prefixes
(under the key "prefixes") which MUST be checked against all the
Prefix Information Options advertised in the RA. If any of the
prefixes included in the PIO is not covered by at least one of the
listed prefixes, the associated PvD information MUST be considered to
be a misconfiguration, and MUST NOT be used by the host. See
Section 4.4 for more discussion on handling such misconfigurations.
4.2. Operational Consideration to Providing the PvD Additional
Information
Whenever the H-flag is set in the PvD Option, a valid PvD Additional
Information object MUST be made available to all hosts receiving the
RA by the network operator. In particular, when a captive portal is
present, hosts MUST still be allowed to perform DNS, PKI and HTTP
over TLS operations related to the retrieval of the object, even
before logging into the captive portal.
Routers SHOULD increment the PVD Option Sequence Number by one
whenever a new PvD Additional Information object is available and
should be retrieved by hosts. If the value exceeds what can be
stored in the Sequence Number field, it SHOULD wrap back to zero.
The server providing the JSON files SHOULD also check whether the
client address is part of the prefixes listed into the additional
information and SHOULD return a 403 response code if there is no
match.
4.3. PvD Additional Information Format
The PvD Additional Information is a JSON object.
The following table presents the mandatory keys which MUST be
included in the object:
Pfister, et al. Expires April 2, 2020 [Page 15]
Internet-Draft Provisioning Domains September 2019
+------------+-----------------+-----------+------------------------+
| JSON key | Description | Type | Example |
+------------+-----------------+-----------+------------------------+
| identifier | PvD ID FQDN | String | "pvd.example.com." |
| | | | |
| expires | Date after | [RFC3339] | "2017-07-23T06:00:00Z" |
| | which this | Date | |
| | object is no | | |
| | longer valid | | |
| | | | |
| prefixes | Array of IPv6 | Array of | ["2001:db8:1::/48", |
| | prefixes valid | strings | "2001:db8:4::/48"] |
| | for this PvD | | |
+------------+-----------------+-----------+------------------------+
A retrieved object which does not include all three of these keys at
the root of the JSON object MUST be ignored. All three keys need to
be validated, otherwise the object MUST be ignored. The value stored
for "identifier" MUST be matched against the PvD ID FQDN presented in
the PvD RA option using the comparison mechanism described in
Section 3.4. The value stored for "expires" MUST be a valid date in
the future. If the PIO of the received RA is not covered by at least
one of the "prefixes" key, the retrieved object SHOULD be ignored.
The following table presents some optional keys which MAY be included
in the object.
+------------+----------------------+----------+--------------------+
| JSON key | Description | Type | Example |
+------------+----------------------+----------+--------------------+
| dnsZones | DNS zones searchable | Array of | ["example.com", |
| | and accessible | strings | |
| | | | |
| | | | "sub.example.com"] |
| | | | |
| noInternet | No Internet, set | Boolean | true |
| | when the PvD is | | |
| | restricted. | | |
+------------+----------------------+----------+--------------------+
It is worth noting that the JSON format allows for extensions.
Whenever an unknown key is encountered, it MUST be ignored along with
its associated elements.
Private-use or experimental keys MAY be used in the JSON dictionary.
In order to avoid such keys colliding with IANA registry keys,
implementers or vendors defining private-use or experimental keys
MUST create sub-dictionaries, where the sub-dictionary is added into
Pfister, et al. Expires April 2, 2020 [Page 16]
Internet-Draft Provisioning Domains September 2019
the top-level JSON dictionary with a key of the format "vendor-*"
where the "*" is replaced by the implementer's or vendor's
identifier. For example, keys specific to the FooBar organization
could use "vendor-foobar". Upon receiving such a sub-dictionary,
host MUST ignore this sub-dictionary if it is unknown. When the
vendor or implementer is part of an IANA URN namespace [URN], the URN
namespace SHOULD be used rather than the "vendor-*" format.
4.3.1. Example
The following two examples show how the JSON keys defined in this
document can be used:
{
"identifier": "cafe.example.com",
"expires": "2017-07-23T06:00:00Z",
"prefixes": ["2001:db8:1::/48", "2001:db8:4::/48"],
}
{
"identifier": "company.foo.example.com",
"expires": "2017-07-23T06:00:00Z",
"prefixes": ["2001:db8:1::/48", "2001:db8:4::/48"],
"vendor-foo": { "private-key": "private-value" },
}
4.4. Detecting misconfiguration and misuse
When a host retrieves the PvD Additional Information, it MUST verify
that the TLS server certificate is valid for the performed request
(e.g., that the Subject Name is equal to the PvD ID expressed as an
FQDN). This authentication creates a secure binding between the
information provided by the trusted Router Advertisement, and the
HTTPS server. However, this does not mean the Advertising Router and
the PvD server belong to the same entity.
Hosts MUST verify that all prefixes in the RA PIO are covered by a
prefix from the PvD Additional Information. An adversarial router
attempting to spoof the definition of an Explicit PvD, without the
ability to modify the PvD Additional Information, would need to
perform NAT66 in order to circumvent this check. Thus, this check
cannot prevent all spoofing, but it can detect misconfiguration or
mismatched routers that are not adding a NAT.
If NAT66 is being added in order to spoof PvD ownership, the HTTPS
server for additional information can detect this misconfiguration.
The HTTPS server SHOULD validate the source addresses of incoming
connections (see Section 4.1). This check gives reasonable assurance
Pfister, et al. Expires April 2, 2020 [Page 17]
Internet-Draft Provisioning Domains September 2019
that neither NPTv6 [RFC6296] nor NAT66 were used and restricts the
information to the valid network users. If the PvD does not
provision IPv4 (it does not include the 'L' bit in the RA), the
server cannot validate the source addresses of connections using
IPv4. Thus, the PvD ID FQDN for such PvDs SHOULD NOT have a DNS A
record.
5. Operational Considerations
This section describes some example use cases of PvD. For the sake
of simplicity, the RA messages will not be described in the usual
ASCII art but rather in an indented list.
5.1. Exposing Extra RA Options to PvD-Aware Hosts
In this example, there is one RA message sent by the router. This
message contains some options applicable to all hosts on the network,
and also a PvD Option that also contains other options only visible
to PvD-aware hosts.
o RA Header: router lifetime = 6000
o Prefix Information Option: length = 4, prefix = 2001:db8:cafe::/64
o PvD Option header: length = 3 + 5 + 4 , PvD ID FQDN =
example.org., R-flag = 0 (actual length of the header with padding
24 bytes = 3 * 8 bytes)
* Recursive DNS Server: length = 5, addresses =
[2001:db8:cafe::53, 2001:db8:f00d::53]
* Prefix Information Option: length = 4, prefix =
2001:db8:f00d::/64
Note that a PvD-aware host will receive two different prefixes,
2001:db8:cafe::/64 and 2001:db8:f00d::/64, both associated with the
same PvD (identified by "example.org."). A non-PvD-aware host will
only receive one prefix, 2001:db8:cafe::/64.
5.2. Different RAs for PvD-Aware and Non-PvD-Aware Hosts
It is expected that for some years, networks will have a mixed
environment of PvD-aware hosts and non-PvD-aware hosts. If there is
a need to give specific information to PvD-aware hosts only, then it
is recommended to send two RA messages (one for each class of hosts).
For example, here is the RA sent for non-PvD-aware hosts:
Pfister, et al. Expires April 2, 2020 [Page 18]
Internet-Draft Provisioning Domains September 2019
o RA Header: router lifetime = 6000 (non-PvD-aware hosts will use
this router as a default router)
o Prefix Information Option: length = 4, prefix = 2001:db8:cafe::/64
o Recursive DNS Server Option: length = 3, addresses=
[2001:db8:cafe::53]
o PvD Option header: length = 3 + 2, PvD ID FQDN = foo.example.org.,
R-flag = 1 (actual length of the header 24 bytes = 3 * 8 bytes)
* RA Header: router lifetime = 0 (PvD-aware hosts will not use
this router as a default router), implicit length = 2
And here is the RA sent for PvD-aware hosts:
o RA Header: router lifetime = 0 (non-PvD-aware hosts will not use
this router as a default router)
o PvD Option header: length = 3 + 2 + 4 + 3, PvD ID FQDN =
bar.example.org., R-flag = 1 (actual length of the header 24 bytes
= 3 * 8 bytes)
* RA Header: router lifetime = 1600 (PvD-aware hosts will use
this router as a default router), implicit length = 2
* Prefix Information Option: length = 4, prefix =
2001:db8:f00d::/64
* Recursive DNS Server Option: length = 3, addresses =
[2001:db8:f00d::53]
In the above example, non-PvD-aware hosts will only use the first RA
sent from their default router and using the 2001:db8:cafe::/64
prefix. PvD-aware hosts will autonomously configure addresses from
both PIOs, but will only use the source address in 2001:db8:f00d::/64
to communicate past the first hop router since only the router
sending the second RA will be used as default router; similarly, they
will use the DNS server 2001:db8:f00d::53 when communicating with
this address.
5.3. Enabling Multi-homing for PvD-Aware Hosts
In this example, the goal is to have one prefix from one RA be usable
by both non-PvD-aware and PvD-aware hosts; and to have another prefix
usable only by PvD-aware hosts. This allows PvD-aware hosts to be
able to effectively multi-home on the network.
Pfister, et al. Expires April 2, 2020 [Page 19]
Internet-Draft Provisioning Domains September 2019
The first RA is usable by all hosts. The only difference for PvD-
aware hosts is that they can explicitly identify the PvD ID
associated with the RA. PvD-aware hosts will also use this prefix to
communicate with non-PvD-aware hosts on the same network.
o RA Header: router lifetime = 6000 (non-PvD-aware hosts will use
this router as a default router)
o Prefix Information Option: length = 4, prefix = 2001:db8:cafe::/64
o Recursive DNS Server Option: length = 3, addresses=
[2001:db8:cafe::53]
o PvD Option header: length = 3, PvD ID FQDN = foo.example.org.,
R-flag = 0 (actual length of the header 24 bytes = 3 * 8 bytes)
The second RA contains a prefix usable only by PvD-aware hosts. Non-
PvD-aware hosts will ignore this RA.
o RA Header: router lifetime = 0 (non-PvD-aware hosts will not use
this router as a default router)
o PvD Option header: length = 3 + 2 + 4 + 3, PvD ID FQDN =
bar.example.org., R-flag = 1 (actual length of the header 24 bytes
= 3 * 8 bytes)
* RA Header: router lifetime = 1600 (PvD-aware hosts will use
this router as a default router), implicit length = 2
* Prefix Information Option: length = 4, prefix =
2001:db8:f00d::/64
* Recursive DNS Server Option: length = 3, addresses =
[2001:db8:f00d::53]
6. Security Considerations
Although some solutions such as IPsec or SeND [RFC3971] can be used
in order to secure the IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Protocol, in practice
actual deployments largely rely on link layer or physical layer
security mechanisms (e.g. 802.1x [IEEE8021X]) in conjunction with RA
Guard [RFC6105].
This specification does not improve the Neighbor Discovery Protocol
security model, but extends the purely link-local trust relationship
between the host and the default routers with HTTP over TLS
communications which servers are authenticated as rightful owners of
the FQDN received within the trusted PvD ID RA option.
Pfister, et al. Expires April 2, 2020 [Page 20]
Internet-Draft Provisioning Domains September 2019
It must be noted that Section 4.4 of this document only provides
reasonable assurance against misconfiguration but does not prevent an
hostile network access provider to advertise wrong information that
could lead applications or hosts to select a hostile PvD.
Users cannot be assumed to be able to meaningfully differentiate
between "safe" and "unsafe" networks. This is a known attack surface
that is present whether or not PvDs are in use, and hence cannot be
addressed by this document. However, a host that correctly
implements the MPvD architecture ([RFC7556]) using the mechanism
described in this document will be less susceptible to such attacks
than a host that does not by being able to check for the various
misconfigurations described in this document.
7. Privacy Considerations
Retrieval of the PvD Additional Information over HTTPS requires early
communications between the connecting host and a server which may be
located further than the first hop router. Although this server is
likely to be located within the same administrative domain as the
default router, this property can't be ensured. Therefore, hosts
willing to retrieve the PvD Additional Information before using it
without leaking identity information, SHOULD make use of an IPv6
Privacy Address and SHOULD NOT include any privacy sensitive data,
such as User Agent header or HTTP cookie, while performing the HTTP
over TLS query.
From a privacy perspective, retrieving the PvD Additional Information
is not different from establishing a first connection to a remote
server, or even performing a single DNS lookup. For example, most
operating systems already perform early queries to well known web
sites, such as http://captive.example.com/hotspot-detect.html, in
order to detect the presence of a captive portal.
There may be some cases where hosts, for privacy reasons, should
refrain from accessing servers that are located outside a certain
network boundary. In practice, this could be implemented as a
whitelist of 'trusted' FQDNs and/or IP prefixes that the host is
allowed to communicate with. In such scenarios, the host SHOULD
check that the provided PvD ID, as well as the IP address that it
resolves into, are part of the allowed whitelist.
8. IANA Considerations
Upon publication of this document, IANA is asked to remove the
'reclaimable' tag off the value 21 for the PvD Option (from the IPv6
Neighbor Discovery Option Formats registry).
Pfister, et al. Expires April 2, 2020 [Page 21]
Internet-Draft Provisioning Domains September 2019
IANA is asked to assign the value "pvd" from the Well-Known URIs
registry.
8.1. Additional Information PvD Keys Registry
IANA is asked to create and maintain a new registry called
"Additional Information PvD Keys", which will reserve JSON keys for
use in PvD additional information. The initial contents of this
registry are given in Section 4.3.
New assignments for Additional Information PvD Keys Registry will be
administered by IANA through Expert Review [RFC8126].
8.2. PvD Option Flags Registry
IANA is also asked to create and maintain a new registry entitled
"PvD Option Flags" reserving bit positions from 0 to 15 to be used in
the PvD Option bitmask. Bit position 0, 1 and 2 are reserved by this
document (as specified in Figure 1). Future assignments require
Standards Action [RFC8126], via a Standards Track RFC document.
8.3. PvD JSON Media Type Registration
This document registers the media type for PvD JSON text,
"application/pvd+json".
Type Name: application
Subtype Name: pvd+json
Required parameters: None
Optional parameters: None
Encoding considerations: Encoding considerations are identical to
those specified for the "application/json" media type.
Security considerations: See Section 6.
Interoperability considerations: This document specifies format of
conforming messages and the interpretation thereof.
Published specification: This document
Applications that use this media type: This media type is intended to
be used by network advertising additional Provisioning Domain
information, and clients looking up such information.
