DNS TIMEOUT Resource Record
draft-pusateri-dnsop-update-timeout-03
Abstract
This specification defines a new DNS TIMEOUT resource record (RR)
that associates a lifetime with one or more zone resource records
with the same owner name, type, and class. It is intended to be used
to transfer resource record lifetime state between a zone's primary
and secondary servers and to store lifetime state during server
software restarts.

1. Introduction
DNS Update [RFC2136] provides a mechanism to dynamically add/remove
DNS resource records to/from a zone. When a resource record is
dynamically added, it remains in the zone until it is removed
manually or via a subsequent DNS Update. The context of a dynamic
update may provide lifetime hints for the updated records (such as
the EDNS(0) Update Lease option [I-D.sekar-dns-ul]), however, this
lifetime is not communicated to secondary servers and will not endure
through server software restarts. This specification defines a new
DNS TIMEOUT resource record that associates lifetimes with one or
more resource records with the same owner name, type, and class that
can be transferred to secondary servers through normal AXFR
[RFC5936], IXFR [RFC1995] transfer mechanisms.
An UPDATE lifetime could be stored in a proprietary database on an
authoritative primary server but there is an advantage to saving it
as a resource record: redundant master servers and secondary servers
capable of taking over as the primary server for a zone automatically
can benefit from the existing database synchronization of resource
Pusateri & Wattenberg Expires January 7, 2020 [Page 2]
Internet-Draft TIMEOUT Resource Record July 2019
records. In addition, primary and secondary servers from multiple
vendors can synchronize the lifetimes through the open format
provided by a resource record.
TIMEOUT records can be installed via policy by a primary server,
manually, or via an external UPDATE from a client. If TIMEOUT
records are being managed by an UPDATE client, the client should be
aware of server software policy with respect to TIMEOUT records to
prevent the TIMEOUT records from being rejected. The primary server
has ultimate responsibility for the records in the database and the
client must work within the restrictions of the policy of the primary
server.
TIMEOUT records can be thought of as a universal method for removing
stale dynamic DNS records. Clients such as DHCP lease servers who
best know the lease lifetimes can include individual TIMEOUT records
in the dynamic UPDATE messages specific for each lease lifetime.
These TIMEOUT records can be refreshed when the lease is refreshed
and will timeout the A, AAAA, and PTR records if they are not
refreshed by the DHCP server. Additional use cases include service
discovery resource records installed in unicast DNS servers via
UPDATE described in [RFC6763], Active Directory Controllers
publishing SRV records, and DNS TXT validation resource records
supporting ACME certificate management as described in Section 8.4 of
[RFC8555].
2. Requirements Language
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. These words may also appear in this
document in lower case as plain English words, absent their normative
meanings.
3. Sources of TIMEOUT Expiry Time
The expire time may come from many different sources. A few are
listed here however, this list is not considered complete. TIMEOUT
records may be included along side the records they represent in the
UPDATE message or they be synthesized by the primary server receiving
the UPDATE.
1. Via DHCP Dynamic Lease Lifetimes.
2. Via EDNS(0) Update Lease option [I-D.sekar-dns-ul] communicated
in DNS Update.
Pusateri & Wattenberg Expires January 7, 2020 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft TIMEOUT Resource Record July 2019
3. Via an administrative default value such as one day (86400
seconds).
4. Resource Record Composition
TIMEOUT resource records provide expiry times for a mixed variety of
resource record types with the same owner name, type, and class.
Since there could exist multiple records of the same record type with
the same owner name and class, the TIMEOUT resource record must be
able to identify each of these records individually with only
different RDATA. As an example, PTR records for service discovery
[RFC6763] provide a level of indirection to SRV and TXT records by
instance name. The instance name is stored in the PTR RDATA and
multiple PTR records with the same owner name but only differing
RDATA often exist.
In order to distinguish each individual record with potentially
different expiry times, the TIMEOUT resource record contains an
exipry time, the record type, a method to identify the actual records
for which the expiry time applies, and a count of the number of
records represented. Multiple TIMEOUT records with the same owner
name and class are created for each expiry time, record type, and
resource record representation. If the expiry time is the same,
multiple records can be combined into a single TIMEOUT record with
the same owner name, class, and record type but this is not required.
The fields and their values in a TIMEOUT record are defined as:
4.1. Represented Record Type
A 16-bit field containing the resource record type to which the
TIMEOUT record applies. Multiple TIMEOUT records for the same owner
name, class, and represented type can exist. Any resource record
type can be specified in the Represented Record Type including
another TIMEOUT record. This specification does not put any
restrictions on the record type but implementations in authoritative
servers will likely do so for policy and security reasons.
4.2. Represented Record Count
The Represented Record Count is a 8-bit value that specifies the
number of records of the specified record type with this expiry time.
An RR Count of zero indicates that it is not necessary to represent
any records in the list. This is a shortcut notation meaning all
resource records with the same owner name, class, and record type use
the same Expiry Time. When the Represented Record Count is 0, the
Pusateri & Wattenberg Expires January 7, 2020 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft TIMEOUT Resource Record July 2019
Method Identifer is set to NO METHOD (0) on transmission and ignored
on reception.
In the unlikely event that the Represented Record Count exceeds 255
which is the largest number representable in 8 bits, multiple
instances of the same Expiry Time can exist.
4.3. Method Identifiers
The Method Identifier is a 8-bit value that specifies an identifier
for the algorithm used to distinguish between resource records. The
identifiers are declared in a registry maintained by IANA for the
purpose of listing acceptable methods for this purpose. In addition
to the method and the index, the registry MAY contain a fixed output
length in bits of the method to be used or the term "variable" to
denote a variable length output per record. It is conceivable,
though not likely, that the same method could be used with different
fixed output lengths. In this case, each fixed output length would
require a different identifier in the registry. Additions to this
registry will be approved with additional documentation under expert
review. At the time that the registry is created by IANA, a group of
expert reviewers will be established.
Additional methods of representing records such as hashes or other
algorithms may be defined in the future. If such methods are
defined, a primary server could create TIMEOUT record using a new
method that is not understood by a secondary server that could take
over as the primary in the event of an outage or administrative
change. In this case, the new primary would not be able to identify
the records it is supposed to TIMEOUT. This is a misconfiguration
and it is the responsibility of the administrator to ensure that
secondary servers in a position to become primary understand the
TIMEOUT record methods of the primary server.
4.3.1. Method Identifier 0: NO METHOD
The method identifier of 0 is defined as "NO METHOD" and MUST NOT be
used if the represented record count is greater than 0. The value of
0 is to be included in the IANA registry of method identifier values.
4.3.2. Method Identifier 1: RDATA
The method identifier of 1 is defined as "RDATA". It begins with the
RDATA length as a 16-bit value containing the length of the RDATA in
bytes followed by the number of bytes of RDATA as appears in the
record being represented. The record MUST be in canonical DNSSEC
form as described in Section 6 of [RFC4034]. Any comparisons of
RDATA in an actual record covered by the TIMEOUT against the
Pusateri & Wattenberg Expires January 7, 2020 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft TIMEOUT Resource Record July 2019
Represented RDATA contained in a TIMEOUT record must be compared in
canonical form.
4.4. Expiry Time
The expiry time is a 64-bit number expressed as the number of seconds
since the UNIX epoch (00:00:00 UTC on January 1, 1970). This value
is an absolute time at which the record will expire. Lease times
must be converted to an absolute expiry time when received.
5. TIMEOUT RDATA Wire Format
The TIMEOUT resource record follows the same pattern as other DNS
resource records as defined in Section 3.2.1 of [RFC1035] including
owner name, type, class, TTL, RDATA length, and RDATA.
The RDATA section of the resource record with method identifier RDATA
(1) is illustrated in Figure 1:
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1

time, a list of RDATA length and RDATA pairs are attached. The

of the represented type for the same owner name and class.
6. Primary Server Behavior
A TIMEOUT resource record MUST be removed when the last resource
record it covers has been removed. This may be due to the record
expiring (reaching the expiry time) or due to a subsequent DNS Update
or administrative action. If the TIMEOUT record is being managed by
the primary server, it has the responsibility to remove it. If the
TIMEOUT record was installed by an external UPDATE client, the UPDATE
client has the responsibility to remove it. The primary server is
the ultimate source of the database and policy established by the
server may overrule the actions of external clients. The primary
server is ultimately responsible for ensuring the database is
consistent but until TIMEOUT record management is built-in to
authoritative server software, external UPDATE clients will likely
manage the records.
Upon receiving any DNS UPDATE deleting resource records that might
have been covered by a TIMEOUT RR, a primary server MUST remove all
represented records in all of the TIMEOUT records with the same owner
name, class, and represented type.
The TIMEOUT record TTL should use the default TTL for the zone like
any other record. The TTL values of the records covered by a TIMEOUT
are not affected by the TIMEOUT expiry time and may be longer than
the expirey time. The TIMEOUT RR is mostly for the benefit of the
Pusateri & Wattenberg Expires January 7, 2020 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft TIMEOUT Resource Record July 2019
authoritative server to know when to remove the records. The fact
that some records might live longer in the cache of a resolver is no
different than other records that might get removed while still in a
remote resolver cache.
7. Secondary Server Behavior
A secondary server may or may not understand TIMEOUT resource
records. If a secondary server does not understand them, they are
treated like any other resource record that the server may not
understand [RFC3597].
A secondary server MUST NOT expire the records in a zone it maintains
covered by the TIMEOUT resource record and it MUST NOT expire the
TIMEOUT resource record itself when the last record it covers has
expired. The secondary server MUST always wait for the records to be
removed or updated by the primary server.
8. TIMEOUT RDATA Presentation Format
Record Type:
resource record type mnemonics. When the mnemonic is unknown,
the TYPE representation described in Section 5 of [RFC3597]
Represented Record Count:
unsigned decimal integer (0-255)
Method Identifier:
unsigned decimal integer (0-255)
Expiry Time:
The Expiry Time is displayed as a compact numeric-only
representation of ISO 8601. All punctuation is removed. This
form is slightly different than the recommendation in [RFC3339]
but is common for DNS protocols. It is defined in Section 3.2
of [RFC4034] as YYYYMMDDHHmmSS in UTC. This form will always
be exactly 14 digits since no component is optional.
YYYY is the year;
MM is the month number (01-12);
DD is the day of the month (01-31);
HH is the hour, in 24 hour notation (00-23);
mm is the minute (00-59); and
SS is the second (00-60) where 60 is only possible as a leap
second.
RDATA Length:
unsigned decimal integer
Pusateri & Wattenberg Expires January 7, 2020 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft TIMEOUT Resource Record July 2019
RDATA:
record type specific
9. IANA Considerations
This document defines a new DNS Resource Record Type named TIMEOUT to
be exchanged between authoritative primary and secondary DNS servers.
It is assigned out of the DNS Parameters Resource Record (RR) Type
registry. The value for the TIMEOUT resource record type is TBA.
This document establishes a new registry of DNS TIMEOUT Resource
Record Method Identifier values. The registry shall include a
numeric identifier, a method name, a description of the method, and
the length of the output function in bits or the keyword "variable".
The identifier is to be used in the RDATA section of the TIMEOUT
resource record.
Initially, there are two values defined in the registry. Values from
240 (0xF0) through 255 (0xFF) are reserved for experimental use.
+---------+--------------+---------------+----------+---------------+
| ID | Method Name | Description | Length | Definition |
| | | | (bits) | |
+---------+--------------+---------------+----------+---------------+
| 0 | NO METHOD | All records | 0 | Section 4.3.1 |
| | | match | | |
| 1 | RDATA | Actual RDATA | variable | Section 4.3.2 |
| | | of | | |
| | | represented | | |
| | | records | | |
| 240-255 | EXPERIMENTAL | Reserved for | variable | Section 9 |
| | | Experimental | | |
| | | Use | | |
+---------+--------------+---------------+----------+---------------+
Table 1: TIMEOUT RR Method Identifier values
10. Security Considerations
There is no secure relationship between a TIMEOUT resource record and
the represented resource records it applies to. TIMEOUT records
should typically only apply to resource records created through the
UPDATE mechanism. Protection for permanent resource records in a
zone is advisable.
Authenticated UPDATE operations MUST be REQUIRED at authoritative
name servers supporting TIMEOUT resource records.

Appendix A. Example TIMEOUT resource records
The following example shows sample TIMEOUT resource records based on
DNS UPDATEs containing A and AAAA address records plus the
corresponding PTR records.
A host sending a name registration at time Tn for "A" and "AAAA"
records with lease lifetime Ln would have a series of UPDATEs (one
for each zone) that contain:
+-------------------------------------------+------+----------------+
| Name | RR | Value |
| | Type | |
+-------------------------------------------+------+----------------+
| s.example.com. | A | 192.0.2.5 |
| s.example.com. | AAAA | 12001:db8::5 |
| 5.2.0.192.in-addr.arpa. | PTR | s.example.com. |
| 5.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.b8.0d.01.20.ip6.a | PTR | s.example.com. |
| rpa. (bytes) | | |
+-------------------------------------------+------+----------------+
Table 2: Example Address Records Update
Next, consider the TIMEOUT resource records that would be generated
for the records in Table 2.

Table 3: Address TIMEOUT records
Next, assume there are two hosts advertising the same service type
(different service types will have different owner names). We will
use _ipp._tcp.example.com as an example.
Host A sends an UPDATE at time Ta with lease life La for PTR, SRV, A,
AAAA, and TXT records. Host B sends an UPDATE at time Tb with lease
life Lb for PTR, SRV, A, and TXT records.
+--------------------------------+------+---------------------------+

For these printer registrations, the TIMEOUT records on the server
would look like the following:
