Probably to cover rfc2119 conventions ... though it may not make sense

have'nt seen any as well and i don't think there's any use case for it.

Hi Hannes,

I think draft-ietf-dime-mip6-split is also a normative reference for
EPS, at least for 3GPP CT4 work. Jouni can be more precise on this as he
attends CT4 meetings.

Thanks Victor for the prompt reply.
In that case, I suggest we remove the column to avoid confusion and
temptation for applications to mark a bit as "SHLD NOT" assuming some
behavior.

Satendra

Probably to cover rfc2119 conventions ... though it may not make sense to
have it there

have'nt seen any as well and i don't think there's any use case for it.

Hi all, 

as part of finishing the Diameter Base protocol-bis document we ran into
the M-bit issue. Victor, the RFC3588bis draft editor, incorporated a
discussion about the M bit into the latest version of the Diameter
Design Guidelines document that lead me to believe that there is a
problem. 

So, here is the text from Section 4.1 of RFC 3588:
"
The 'M' Bit, known as the Mandatory bit, indicates whether support of
the AVP is required. If an AVP with the 'M' bit set is received by a
Diameter client, server, proxy, or translation agent and either the AVP
or its value is unrecognized, the message MUST be rejected. 
"

Also note the extensibility rules; by adding an AVP with the M bit set
to an existing application requires a new application id to be
allocated. 

Let us, for the moment, focus only on the usage of the M bit for the AVP
(rather than the values carried within an AVP). 

There is no direct dependency between the ABNF and the usage of the M
bit but one can certainly say that a specification indicating within the
ABNF that a certain AVP must at least occur 1 (or multiple) times
requires the implementation to understand it. Hence, in this case the
usage of the M bit is redundant. 

For the same application a couple of AVPs might be optional in the ABNF
but the definition of the AVP flag table may allow the M bit to be set.
This allows certain deployments to have a dynamic "capability
indication" via probing. Having the AVP optional in the ABNF and at the
same time require the M bit to be set just implies that the AVP has to
be understood (= implemented) but not necessarily used. This implements
the classical: mandatory to implement - optional to use behavior. Hence,
for a newly defined Diameter application it is fine to indicate all AVPs
as mandatory to implement (if this is the intention of the authors). An
author of a specification would therefore have to think of what the
minimum to implement functionality of a given specification has to be. 

For certain use cases, the M bit merely serves the purpose of
determining the support for certain features. When optional AVPs are
available then there are essentially two points in time when to agree on
a specific functionality: 

A) At Configuration Time: 

Two operators get together and agree to support a specific
functionality. Based on the configuration of the stack certain AVPs are
sent whereas others' aren't. We have seen this approach happening a lot
(also at the interop). It is obviously more time consuming. 

B) At Run Time: 

This is the sort of zero-configuration approach where both figure out
what they support during the protocol run. 

With the deployments we see today we are largely talking about (A)
rather than (B). Nevertheless, Diameter provides functionality for (B)
in the Diameter Base protocol and it is certainly useful and powerful.
Unfortunately, this functionality is provided only in a very basic form
since there is little feedback from the receiving end (and intermediary)
when certain functionality is not supported (unless one incrementially
probes to determine what went wrong). 

More important is the usage of the M bit when it comes to the
extensibility story. When a new application is extended by new AVPs then
one could require support of the new functionality from the other end
during run-time. When the ABNF is changed substantially then there is
clearly a need for defining a new Diameter application, like it is
necessary to register a new XML schema when you change it (rather than
extending it). When you, however, only make use of the extension points
to add new functionality then there is also with XML no need to change
the parent schema(s). It seems to be interesting to re-use the same
concepts in Diameter as well. 
 
Other protocols have similar concepts. For example, consider SIP that
defines the supported / required feature. See Section 8.1.1.9 and
Section 8.2.2.3 of RFC 3261. In some sense this refers to the
"end-to-end capability" mechanism used in some of our documents and that
is being used also in RADIUS in some places. Unfortunately, there has
never been an attempt to define such a feature consistently so that it
could be used by many Diameter extensions in a generic way. Note that
the concept in SIP refers to "features" (an abstract functionality)
rather than a specific header field or even a specific value in a header
field. Corresponding error codes are defined in the SIP specification as
well along with this mechanism. 

Example: SIP Location Conveyance --
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-sip-location-conveyance-09 --
specifies an option tag "geolocation" for usage with the Require,
Supported and Unsupported headers. The document defines how to carry
location information. Obviously, with the processing of location
information many things can go wrong and could be misinterpreted by the
receiving party. Hence, there are a large number of specific error codes
that can be used. 

I am not sure what todo about the extensiblity rule regarding an AVP
with the M bit set being added to an existing application that requires
a new Diameter application to be defined. When comparing this to SIP one
could argue that the application ID corresponds to the option tag.
Unfortunately, it is not quite the same since the application ID is used
in Diameter also for routing (but not in SIP) and hence it would
correspond better to a Require header combined with a Proxy-Require
header. Comparing this approach with XML and Relax NG schemas one could
also say that defining new AVPs in a specification is like defining a
new XML / Relax NG schema and these schemas are typically registered as
well. The comparison is, however, also not fully correct since most of
the XML usage I have been using in the IETF was an end-to-end matter and
hence the problem with intermediaries did not appear. Furthermore, XML
schemas do not allow individual attributes or elements to be registered
unless they appear in separate schemas. AVPs are, however, registered
separately. Merging of several applications in a single Diameter message
is, however, not possible. This has often been the concern when new
Diameter applications are defined since new Diameter applications lead
to additional message exchanges and cannot be piggy-backed on top of
other applications without making a design decision to incorporate the
functionality of another Diameter application. When you want to develop
them independently then you might encounter an interesting extensibility
story since you have very monolithic applications.  

Regarding the end-to-end capability negotation there is room to learn
something from work done in other areas on extensiblity and maybe we
don't need to re-invent the wheel every time we define another
extension. Currently, capabilities are described using different levels
of granularity. For example: 

In
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dime-mip6-integrated-07.t
xt we use the MIP6-Feature-Vector that is used to convey information
from the NAS to the AAAH server. It is a bit map, as shown in Section
4.7.5. The same AVP is used in the reverse direction by the AAAH to
indicate the authorization decision (e.g., whether the local domain is
authorized to allocate a HA or not) in addition to implemented
functionality that could be used for a specific protocol run.

As such, this functionality is more than the functionality used in SIP
with the Require, Supported etc. headers. 

One problem I see is that the initial goal of routing with the help of
Diameter application was to simplify progressing at Diameter proxies.
Instead of having to parse through the entire message in order to figure
out whether there is something interesting in there for them to process
they just had to inspect the Diameter application. Unforuntely, this
hasn't really worked too well since there is no such functionality as
the SIP Proxy Require that would delegate the decision to set a certain
mode from the specification designer to the person that deploys it. The
same problem already appeared with the usage of the application ID and
the way of doing accounting. Hence, many decisions should be really
configuration time or design time decisions rather than design time
decision. 

It is kind of difficult to make a good decision on the M-bit and on the
larger extensibility story given that
* Diameter routing depends also on the Application ID
* the M-bit indicates that intermediaries and other end points have to
support a certain functionality
  Hence, the M-bit has various functionality mixed into a single piece
of information. 
* the usage of "MAY/SHOULD use the M-bit" in the AVP flag table isn't
really considered in the extensibility story for Diameter
* adding functionality to resolve some of these problems isn't so easy
given that these are pretty core protocol features (hint: backward
compatibility).

I don't see an easy way to solve some of these issues. I wonder whether
anyone of you has an opinion about this rather complicated subject. 

Ciao
Hannes

PS: It might be good to start with a list of things we want and do not
want: 

* We clearly don't want to define new applications with every tiny
extension. Consider the following example. Think about the Diameter QoS
attribute draft. Imagine that we would have to define an application.
This would mean to define it to run it in the following environments: 
   - Diameter EAP + Diameter QoS attributes 
   - Diameter NASREQ + Diameter QoS attributes
   - Diameter CC + Diameter QoS attributes 
   - Diameter Mobile IP + Diameter QoS attributes
   - etc. 

* We don't want to decide during design time whether intermediaries
should be involved.
The previous bullet shows the dilemma. The application ID is used to
tell intermediate nodes to participate in a particular exchange. On the
other hand we would like to have an easy way for network operators to
configure their nodes to process certain extensions. One way is
obviously to have these intermediaries to look through the entire
Diameter message for the presence (or absence) of certain AVPs. 

* It would help protocol designers to have an e2e capability indication
mechanism. 
With the way how people extend Diameter applications already today I
don't see a way to avoid having such a capability. The question is only
whether we want to define a generic mechanism (even though it is a bit
late).

[TOLGA]IMHO whether the AVP is actually used in the messages at all is
orthogonal to whether support for it needs to be present (and whether it
would force a new applicationId to be defined). The latter is determined
whether the M-bit is set for the new AVP.

[TOLGA]Are we talking about "Capability Exchange" when we refer to
"Diameter Base protocol mechanism to determine support"? If so, it is
only a hop-by-hop mechanism. I think it could be used to propagate
information about supported applications end-to-end if the
intermediaries are intelligent enough to update what they support(but
then there are relay agents which advertise support for all
applications) (and the mechanism lack the capability to signal support
for specific application per realm).

[TOLGA]I guess your worry is whether combinations of supported
extensions should be enumerated in advance by a standards organization
(defining a new ApplicationId for each of them) or should be signaled as
listed exclusively by endpoints (maybe via an AVP).

[TOLGA]I am not sure whether it would really correspond to
Require/Require-Proxy header. The field containing the information used
for routing is ApplicationId, just the content of the field changes.
Being able to route based on this information is part of the base
protocol.

[TOLGA]I think, the way Diameter base protocol stands right now, there
is little room to negotiate capabilities outside of as indicated by
ApplicationId. Anything other than that (e.g. with an AVP) would be
negotiating optional capabilities, whose lack of support shouldn't cause
the session to be terminated (because routing logic is unaware of these
optional capabilities and could route initial messages always to a
non-supporting endpoint)

[TOLGA]Not only simplification. Routing based only on ApplicationId does
not require software updates on intermediaries as well.

[TOLGA]Again, I think your real worry is whether combination of
capabilities should be enumerated in advance by SDOs; and I share your
concern.

[TOLGA]IMHO
i- If there is new AVP where M-bit may/should/must be set ==> new
ApplicationId
ii- If for an existing AVP, M-bit setting changes so that it was
previously not possible to set it and now it is ==> new ApplicationId

[TOLGA]Yes, I think all this should not require a new ApplicationId (but
it currently does).

[TOLGA]Currently the only way is to define a new ApplicationId. I don't
think being late should be an issue here if a new mechanism is designed
carefully:
i- Should not cause existing nodes to break
ii- Should allow the endpoints to determine, whether the message was
routed by making use of this new mechanism
iii- Should not require intermediaries which are capable of routing
according to the new mechanism to be upgraded to support new
extensions/applications.
iv- Scope of changes signaled by extensions should be
well-defined/limited

This relates to the discussion about Diameter extensibility. Not even
the published IETF documents follow the extensibility rules of RFC 3588.

It appears that everyone sets the M-bit almost randomly. I am sure that
looking at the RADIUS-Diameter interoperability section of RADIUS
documents the AVP flag tables would most likely scare us as well.=20

Betreff: Bug in NASREQ


=20
Hannes,
=20
We found a bug in NASREQ.  NASREQ bases its Accounting Application ID on
Diameter Base and at the same time it is adding 11 new AVPs with the 'M'
bit set.  We just need one to require the use of a new Application ID
for accounting.  As per 3588:
=20
   Basic accounting support is sufficient to handle any application that
uses
   the ACR/ACA commands defined in this document, as long as no new
   mandatory AVPs are added.  A mandatory AVP is defined as one which
   has the "M" bit set when sent within an accounting command,
   regardless of whether it is required or optional within the ABNF for
   the accounting application.
=20
=20
The AVPs are defined in Section 8 of NASREQ.

Looks like a bug in nasreq to me, Avi. I agree with your understanding
of {} and the occurence table.

Subject:        Issue with NASREQ
 
Mark and Hannes,
 
Sitting here in WiMAX doing diameter work.  Another issue comes up.
 
 
It was my understanding that in the ABNF when an attribute was in a {}
brace then the table of occurances would also indicate on occurance of
1.  Simillarly if the attribute is in a [] then the occurance table will
indicate 0-1.
 
In the base protocol this is exactly the case.
 
Now looking at NASREQ this is not the case.
 
Am I missing something?
 
The point of this email and the previous one is that we are trying to do
a proper design.
 
Apparently this is done elsewhere as well.
 
 
Here are some of the examples from NASREQ.
                                          +-----------+

Hi all,

Alejandro worked in an EU funded project, called ENABLE, and implemented the
Diameter Mobile IPv6 split scenario. In his implementation he made a few 
enhancements;
the description can be found below:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here you have a description of how we perform the split scenario:

The MN starts the IKEv2 exchanges with the HA. When the HA receives the
IKE_AUTH request message without EAP, it starts the Diameter-EAP
application with the AAA server in order to AUTHENTICATE the MN. After a
successful authentication, the MN sends the first BU to the HA. After
receiving the BU, the HA starts the Diameter Mobile IPv6 application
sending an AA-Request Command, in order to AUTHORISE the MN. If the MN
is authorised to use the MIP6 service, then a BA is sent back and the
mobility service can be used.

Note that we use two different applications, Diameter-EAP as defined in
the original RFC (without the MIP6 AVPs) and the Diameter Mobile IPv6
(as defined in your draft for Certificate or PSK authentication).

So, we have two different processes, AUTHENTICATION and AUTHORIZATION.

My comments are:
      * If you want to perform both processes together when using IKEv2
        and EAP, you need to add the Authorization-Lifetime and related
        AVPs to the command description, because reader may become
        confused (how and where they are sent? Are they included in the
        "..." AVPs?).
      * How re-authorization is performed without execute again an EAP
        authentication?

Best regards,
Alejandro


------------------------------------------------------------------------

Feedback to his comments and thoughts are obviously encouraged.

I think it would be useful to justify in the security consideration section
of the draft why we decided to combined authentication and authorization
together in one step.

Ciao
Hannes

Here is another example of M-Flag usage example that violates RFC 3588
extensibility rules:
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4675.txt
 
                                  +---------------------+
                                  |    AVP Flag rules   |
                                  |----+-----+----+-----|----+
                                  |    |     |SHLD| MUST|    |
   Attribute Name      Value Type |MUST| MAY | NOT|  NOT|Encr|
   -------------------------------|----+-----+----+-----|----|
   Egress-VLANID       OctetString| M  |  P  |    |  V  | Y  |
   Ingress-Filters     Enumerated | M  |  P  |    |  V  | Y  |
   Egress-VLAN-Name    UTF8String | M  |  P  |    |  V  | Y  |
   User-Priority-Table OctetString| M  |  P  |    |  V  | Y  |
   -------------------------------|----+-----+----+-----|----|

According to the Diameter extensibility rules one would have to define a
new Diameter application in the above case 
(since the M-bit is set with these AVPs). Obviously that wasn't done
with RFC 4675. 

I strongly believe that we need to relax the M bit definition. The split
between MUST, MAY, SHOULD NOT and MUST NOT isn't really so useful
either. 

Ciao
Hannes

[TOLGA]IMHO, this can't be done without redefining Diameter Base
Protocol routing. Messages should be delivered to the entities, which
know how to process them. Currently Application-Id is the only standard
information for routing purposes. Having said that, I also agree we
should do *something* about this.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Diameter Maintenance and Extensions Working Group of the IETF.


	Title           : The Diameter API
	Author(s)       : P. Calhoun, D. Frascone
	Filename        : draft-ietf-dime-diameter-api-06.txt
	Pages           : 48
	Date            : 2008-02-12

The Diameter authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA)
protocol provides support for peering AAA transactions across the
Internet.  This document describes a standardized API for the
Diameter protocol.  The API is defined for the C language.  The
intent of the API is to foster source code portability across
multiple programming platforms.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dime-diameter-api-06.txt

To remove yourself from the I-D Announcement list, send a message to
i-d-announce-request@ietf.org with the word unsubscribe in the body of 
the message.
You can also visit https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/I-D-announce
to change your subscription settings.

Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the 
username "anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After 
logging in, type "cd internet-drafts" and then
	"get draft-ietf-dime-diameter-api-06.txt".

A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in
http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html
or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt

Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.

Send a message to:
	mailserv@ietf.org.
In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dime-diameter-api-06.txt".

NOTE:   The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.

 PROTO WRITEUP for draft-ietf-dime-diameter-api-06.txt
======================================================

   (1.a)  Who is the Document Shepherd for this document?  Has the
          Document Shepherd personally reviewed this version of the
          document and, in particular, does he or she believe this
          version is ready for forwarding to the IESG for publication?

Hannes Tschofenig (Hannes.Tschofenig@gmx.net) is the Document Shepherd.  
I have reviewed the document personally, and find it to be ready for
publication.

   (1.b)  Has the document had adequate review both from key WG members
          and from key non-WG members?  Does the Document Shepherd have
          any concerns about the depth or breadth of the reviews that
          have been performed?

The document has been in the IETF for a number of years. It has been 
reviewed through several phases while it was in the AAA and subsequently 
moved over to the DIME working group. 

There are no concerns regarding the reviews. 

   (1.c)  Does the Document Shepherd have concerns that the document
          needs more review from a particular or broader perspective,
          e.g., security, operational complexity, someone familiar with
          AAA, internationalization or XML?

No further reviews are required.

   (1.d)  Does the Document Shepherd have any specific concerns or
          issues with this document that the Responsible Area Director
          and/or the IESG should be aware of?  For example, perhaps he
          or she is uncomfortable with certain parts of the document, or
          has concerns whether there really is a need for it.  In any
          event, if the WG has discussed those issues and has indicated
          that it still wishes to advance the document, detail those
          concerns here.  Has an IPR disclosure related to this document
          been filed?  If so, please include a reference to the
          disclosure and summarize the WG discussion and conclusion on
          this issue.

There are no current concerns.

   (1.e)  How solid is the WG consensus behind this document?  Does it
          represent the strong concurrence of a few individuals, with
          others being silent, or does the WG as a whole understand and
          agree with it?

There is consensus in the working group to publish the document. 
Not everyone has, however, a strong opinion about publishing an 
API document. 


   (1.f)  Has anyone threatened an appeal or otherwise indicated extreme
          discontent?  If so, please summarize the areas of conflict in
          separate email messages to the Responsible Area Director.  (It
          should be in a separate email because this questionnaire is
          entered into the ID Tracker.)

No.

   (1.g)  Has the Document Shepherd personally verified that the
          document satisfies all ID nits?  (See
          http://www.ietf.org/ID-Checklist.html and
          http://tools.ietf.org/tools/idnits/).  Boilerplate checks are
          not enough; this check needs to be thorough.  Has the document
          met all formal review criteria it needs to, such as the MIB
          Doctor, media type and URI type reviews?

ID nits got verified. There are no formal review criteria with regard to 
this document. 

The draft contains C-code. It came from Sun's working implementatation. 
The document shepherd reviewed the C-code and additionally it was 
reviewed by Victor Fajardo, our WG secretary and main developer of the 
OpenDiameter stack. 


   (1.h)  Has the document split its references into normative and
          informative?  Are there normative references to documents that
          are not ready for advancement or are otherwise in an unclear
          state?  If such normative references exist, what is the
          strategy for their completion?  Are there normative references
          that are downward references, as described in [RFC3967]?  If
          so, list these downward references to support the Area
          Director in the Last Call procedure for them [RFC3967].

Yes. References are split into normative and informative references. 

There is a normative reference to RFC 3493 "Basic Socket Interface 
Extensions for IPv6" (an informational RFC). However, the Diameter 
API document is an informational document.

   (1.i)  Has the Document Shepherd verified that the document IANA
          consideration section exists and is consistent with the body
          of the document?  If the document specifies protocol
          extensions, are reservations requested in appropriate IANA
          registries?  Are the IANA registries clearly identified?  If
          the document creates a new registry, does it define the
          proposed initial contents of the registry and an allocation
          procedure for future registrations?  Does it suggest a
          reasonable name for the new registry?  See [RFC2434].  If the
          document describes an Expert Review process has Shepherd
          conferred with the Responsible Area Director so that the IESG
          can appoint the needed Expert during the IESG Evaluation?

An IANA consideration section exists but there are no actions for IANA. 

   (1.j)  Has the Document Shepherd verified that sections of the
          document that are written in a formal language, such as XML
          code, BNF rules, MIB definitions, etc., validate correctly in
          an automated checker?

The document contains C-code (as noted already above).


   (1.k)  The IESG approval announcement includes a Document
          Announcement Write-Up.  Please provide such a Document
          Announcement Write-Up?  Recent examples can be found in the
          "Action" announcements for approved documents.  The approval
          announcement contains the following sections:


Document Announcement Write-Up

   Technical Summary


   The Diameter authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA)
   protocol provides support for peering AAA transactions across the
   Internet.  This document describes an API for the
   Diameter protocol.  The API is defined for the C language.  The
   intent of the API is to foster source code portability across
   multiple programming platforms.


   Working Group Summary

      There is consensus in the WG to publish this document.

   Document Quality

      There are two known deployments of Diameter servers using this
      API.  One of the implementation's maintainers has provided 
      many comments and contributions to the document.

   Personnel

      Hannes Tschofenig shepherded this document.

Victor,

After reading (again) the request routing part of the 4588bis,
I think the I-D should say more about the realm-based routing.
For example, RFC4282 that this I-D also references to, allows
"source routing" using decorated NAIs. There are already specs
out there that assume Diameter realm routing supports this
feature. To my understanding at least 3GPP and WiMAX use this
feature to implement various roaming scenarios. However, I
cannot find any indication of such in 3588bis. Basically, I
would propose adding some text to sections 6.1. and 6.1.9.
in order to cover decorated NAIs.


Below is a draft proposal for a new text:



6.1. Diameter Request Routing Overview

   ... its ABNF.  For Diameter clients, the value of the Destination-
   Realm AVP MAY be extracted from the User-Name AVP, or other
   application-specific methods. For Diameter relays and proxies, the
   values of the User-Name AVP and the Destination-Realm AVP MAY be
   modified if the User-Name AVP contains a NAI with multiple realms
   (see RFC 4282 [RFC4282] Section 2.7 Realm Construction).

   ...


6.1.9. Relaying and Proxying Requests

   ...

   Relay agents do not require full validation of incoming messages.  At
   a minimum, validation of the message header and relevant routing AVPs
   has to be done when relaying messages.

   If both User-Name and Destination-Realm AVPs are present, then a
relay
   or proxy SHOULD check whether the the User-Name AVP contains a NAI
   with multiple realms (as described in RFC 4282 [RFC4282] Section
2.7).
   If multiple realms are found in the NAI then the following steps are
   done:

   o The NAI in the User-Name AVP is processed and modified according to
     the NAI conversion rules defined in RFC 4282 [RFC4282] Section 2.7.

   o The Destination-Realm AVP is modified with the updated realm
     information extracted from the User-Name AVP.

   o The request is routed normally as described in Section 6.1.6.



Any comments etc ?


Cheers,
	Jouni

[MJ] I agree with Tolga. A solution is required but relaxing the 'M' bit definition makes capability exchanges meaningless. The current 'M' bit definition is going to mean a prolification of application ids as new releases of applications will inevitably add mandatory-to-understand AVPs. I don't see a way to address this without revisiting some fundamental definitions in the Base Protocol. However, if we don't tackle this in Dime, I suspect one of the SDOs will extend the capability exchanges anyway. IMO, Application-Version/Release AVPs can't be far away and I'd much prefer them to have common definitions than SDO-specific variants.

Mark

I understand your concern regarding the base protocol specification.
However, I really would like to know how to deal with decorated NAIs
and Diameter routing in general. IMHO we need it documented somewhere
in IETF space. Can I assume e.g. NASREQ & EAP handle it, if those boxes
implement 3588bis? Or do I always need a new application that is
equivalent to e.g. EAP apart from modified routing?

Cheers,

I should introduce some terminology here:

Required AVP: AVP that is listed in the ABNF with {}.
Mandatory AVP: AVP that has the M-bit flag set.

Hence, in a case of required AVP then it is obviously mandatory as well 
(regardless of the setting of the M-flag).

Hence, with the current extensibility rules you have a problem:

* When you have AVPs with the M-bit set in the "MUST" column then it 
just means
   "MUST implement/MAY use". According to the extensibility rules a 
mandatory AVP would require a new application.

* When you have AVPs with the M-bit set in the "MUST NOT" column then 
this is purely optional.

* The semantic of the "SHOULD" and "MAY" column is not really well 
described.

No I am not talking about the Diameter base exchange capability 
exchange. I should have used a different term.
This is about an E2E exchange built into applications by some protocol 
designers.

I would like to have protocol designers to have a better understanding 
of the tradeoffs of certain design decisions.
Creating monolithic applications is fine when intended that way. 
However, it took us a long time to figure out how to extend Diameter for 
our purpose; I could imagine that many other SDOs have similar problems.

The problem with the Application ID is that many people do not want to 
allocate a new Application ID with every tiny extension.
The main reason is based on the fact that you essentially require 
separate exchanges for different Diameter applications.

Furthermore, the usage of M-bit is (when you look at existing Diameter 
applications) almost random.
Hence, it cannot seriously be used by a proxy to determine the behavior.

I agree with your observation. Backwards compatibility is the challenge.

Well. The software update comes when you want todo something meaningful

The problem is that this practice has not been followed within the IETF 
and also not by other SDOs.

But the application ID is used to tell intermediaries to inspect and 
progress the messages.
Without a new application ID the proxy would have to parse through the 
entire message.
Essentially we would then move to a more flat architecture, like RADIUS 
has, and the
proxy would have to look at more information than just the Application ID.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Diameter Maintenance and Extensions Working Group of the IETF.


	Title           : Diameter Mobile IPv6: Support for Network Access Server to Diameter Server Interaction
	Author(s)       : J. Korhonen, et al.
	Filename        : draft-ietf-dime-mip6-integrated-08.txt
	Pages           : 21
	Date            : 2008-02-14

A Mobile IPv6 node requires a home agent address, a home address, and
a security association with its home agent before it can start
utilizing Mobile IPv6.  RFC 3775 requires that some or all of these
parameters are statically configured.  Mobile IPv6 bootstrapping work
aims to make this information dynamically available to the Mobile
Node.  An important aspect of the Mobile IPv6 bootstrapping solution
is to support interworking with existing authentication,
authorization and accounting infrastructure.  This document describes
the MIPv6 bootstrapping using the Diameter Network Access Server
(NAS) to home Authentication, Authorization and Accounting server
(HAAA) interface.

Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the 
username "anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After 
logging in, type "cd internet-drafts" and then
	"get draft-ietf-dime-mip6-integrated-08.txt".

A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in
http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html
or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt

Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.

Send a message to:
	mailserv@ietf.org.
In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dime-mip6-integrated-08.txt".

NOTE:   The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.

FYI

Comments from various SDOs should now have been reflected
in this revision. Especially, when it comes to local and
visited network home agent assignment.

I understand. Though it maybe more appropriate to document these issues 
in related extension draft (like Tina's draft).

Mmmm .... for me, putting decorated NAI dependencies in the base is 
probably going to confuse folks. To me decorated NAI is a solution to a 
very specific problem that should not be generalized in the base. There 
are other competing solutions to the "source routing" issue that does 
not require changes to basic routing. So I think it is better if that 
happens outside existing routing procedures.

I think this discussion has been hashed before. Some folks (including 
me) agree that it would have been a better choice to have two(2) 
documents; a base protocol doc and session related doc. However, going 
with that approach this late is not productive and would cause even more 
delays in delivering the document as well as breaking an ever increasing 
document dependencies.

This document describes the need for a new pair of IANA Diameter Command
Codes and a new vendor-specific Application ID to be used in a
vendor-specific new application, namely for the ITU-T Rec. Q.3303.3
- Rw interface used to send a request/responses for controlling the
policy enforcement in a network element, as one of the recommendations
of the International Telecommunication Union - Telecommunication
Standardization Sector (ITU-T).

The DIME chairs in discussion with our AD decided to create a design 
team with the intention to revisit the rules for Diameter extensibility 
(as described in RFC 3588, RFC 3588bis and the Diameter Design 
Guidelines document) to come up with a precise and short description on 
how Diameter has to be extended (considering backwards compatibility 
issues etc.).  

The design team members are:

* Avi Lior
* Jari Arkko
* Glen Zorn
* Victor Fajardo
* Tolga Asveren
* Mark Jones

I am still waiting for a time commitment from Glenn McGregor and John 
Loughney.

The design team is lead by the working group chairs: Dave Frascone and 
Hannes Tschofenig

The design team will have regular phone conferences (starting with next 
week) and will have a face-to-face meeting at IETF#71.

We hope to conclude our investigations soon to present a proposal for 
further discussion to the DIME working group.

Ciao
Hannes

PS: The rules for design teams are described in 
http://www.ietf.org/IESG/STATEMENTS/Design-Teams.txt

Hello everybody,

my name is Niklas Neumann and currently I am working as a research 
assistant at the University of Goettingen. For my masters thesis I 
developed an approach to Diameter-based identity management for web 
applications. A part of this work is now available as an Internet-Draft:


	Title		: Diameter Application for Authentication and Authorization in 
Web Applications
	Author(s)	: N. Neumann, X. Fu
	Filename	: draft-neumann-dime-webauth-00.txt
	Pages		: 26
	Date		: 2008-2-18
	
This document specifies the Diameter Application for Authentication
    and Authorization in Web Applications (Diameter WebAuth).  This
    Diameter application is intended to be used by Diameter clients to
    perform authentication and authorization operations with a Diameter
    server in web-based environments.  It provides facilities to allow
    web sites to authenticate their web user clients using a number of
    (HTTP) authentication schemes.  In addition, it supports user 
authorization using dedicated service identifiers.  Diameter WebAuth
    may also be used by non web-based Diameter clients and servers that
    require a lightweight authentication and authorization Diameter
    application.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-neumann-dime-webauth-00.txt

I would really appreciate any comments and suggestions on this topic 
from you. Especially I'd like to know if there is interest in such a 
work from your side, bringing the Diameter protocol closer to the 
application level.

The whole master thesis is available at 
http://www.net.informatik.uni-goettingen.de/publications/1495/master_thesis_niklas_neumann.pdf 
  (if you are interested).
It includes more details, an evaluation of other approaches to web-based 
identity management (OpenId, Liberty, etc.) and a section about the 
prototype implementation. The Internet-Draft only reflects a part of 
this work, some other aspects of the work done in the thesis are left 
out for now, but you have to start somewhere :)


So long
   Niklas

This document defines a number of Quality of Service (QoS) parameters
that can be reused for conveying QoS information within RADIUS and
Diameter.

The payloads used to carry these QoS parameters are opaque for the
AAA client and the AAA server itself and interpreted by the
respective Resource Management Function.

	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

	Title           : Diameter Mobile IPv6: Support for Home Agent to Diameter Server Interaction
	Author(s)       : J. Korhonen, et al.
	Filename        : draft-ietf-dime-mip6-split-07.txt
	Pages           : 33
	Date            : 2008-02-25

Mobile IPv6 deployments may want to bootstrap their operations
dynamically based on an interaction between the Home Agent and the
Diameter server of the Mobile Service Provider (MSP).  This document
specifies the interaction between a Mobile IP Home Agent and that
Diameter server.

Several different mechanisms for authenticating a Mobile Node are
supported.  The usage of the Internet Key Exchange v2 (IKEv2)
protocol allows different mechanisms, such as the Extensible
Authentication Protocol (EAP), certificates and pre-shared secrets to
be used.  Furthermore, another method makes use of the Mobile IPv6
Authentication protocol.  In addition to authentication and
authorization, the configuration of Mobile IPv6 specific parameters
and accounting is specified in this document.

NOTE:   The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Diameter Maintenance and Extensions Working Group of the IETF.


	Title           : Diameter Quality of Service Application
	Author(s)       : D. Sun, et al.
	Filename        : draft-ietf-dime-diameter-qos-05.txt
	Pages           : 56
	Date            : 2008-02-25

This document describes the framework, messages and procedures for
the Diameter Quality of Service (QoS) application.  The Diameter QoS
application allows network elements to interact with Diameter servers
when allocating QoS resources in the network.  In particular, two
modes of operation -- Pull and Push -- are defined.

Here is the agenda proposal
http://www3.ietf.org/proceedings/08mar/agenda/dime.txt

This time it is difficult to work on the agenda.
Here are the reasons: 

It is obvious that we want to finish our current working group items. 
Although we wanted to finish them already some time ago we are still left with a number of items.
We got good feedback on the mobility issues from other SDOs, we encountered some problems with Diameter extensibility and now we have a design team, we got feedback on the QoS topic from other working groups. We submitted a publication request for the Diameter API and we are going todo the same for the Diameter Mobile IPv6 integrated scenario draft. 

At the last IETF meeting we rushed through the different topics and there was no time for discussion. We did not have too much discussion on the individual proposals at all. Almost no reviews sent to the list. 

It almost seems that the draft authors of the individual proposals just care about their work and nothing else. That's not great since we will never get the work done. 

Unfortunately, the list of documents relevant for rechartering did not got shorter; it got longer. 

In short, we have to think about this a bit more and see how we can deal with this in a reasonable fashion. Hence, we called the agenda item "rechartering discussion". 

Just repeating presentations again does not move us forward -- particularly if nobody has read the documents. 

Your feedback would obviously be welcome

I guess the point of ALL_SESSION is: how will you know to redirect 
messages for this session in the first place unless you get an 
ALL_SESSION redirection.

Hi Hannes

Probably you can list all the potential topics for rechartering, 
at the same time, you can list  the dimensions  for evaluate the topics,
such as, deployment possibility,  dependency with other IETF documents and so
on.

This announces the second WG last call on "Resource ReSerVation Protovol 
(RSVP) Extensions for Emergency Services" with the intended status of 
proposed standard:

http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-tsvwg-emergency-rsvp-05.txt

This is the second one due to changes and the interaction with documents 
in the NSIS and DIME WG. Please provide any comments on the TSVWG 
mailing list no later than 28th of March. (Yes, it is long but that is 
due to the meeting and that we have several other WG last calls ongoing).

Hi Preeti

Your argument is that after an initial message of a session is sent to a =
host, all the subsequent messages should be sent to the same host. This =
is not necessarily true.=20

1. The redirect agent can be a load balancer. In which case, it can =
chooses an appropriate host based on how the servers are loaded. And =
yes, in this case all the servers have to be in sync. There are =
implementations that support this.

2. In IMS, during registration, the S-CSCF before sending MAR and SAR =
belonging to the same user same session can contact the SLF(redirect =
agent) in a multiple HSS network deployment. Even in this case, SLF may =
return different host names each time. Again, HSSes have to be in sync. =
Further, In multiple SLF deployment, this is more likely to happen.

Hi Victor !

Thanks for your response.

Redirect agent should provide the redirect host AVPs , solely based upon =

the routing tables available at the redirect agent. It should not =
concern=20
about any session ! So all the possible values for Redirect-Host usage=20
AVPs mentioned in the RFC, except ALL_SESSION, somehow indicates the=20
routing table at the redirect agent.=20

For finding the route for the first message, from the redirect agent, is =

responsibility of the client. Why should redirect agent be concerned =
about=20
whether it is first message or the subsequent message for the session

regards
Preeti

I guess the point of ALL_SESSION is: how will you know to redirect=20
messages for this session in the first place unless you get an=20
ALL_SESSION redirection.

The draft should have an "Obsoletes: 3588 (if approved)" header at the
top. Add the appropriate XML2RFC attribute to do that (obsoletes="3588").

> This document deprecates [RFC3588 <http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3588>] but is fully backward compatible
>    with that document. 
Obsoletes, not deprecates.

>    In order to allocate a new AVP value for a standards track AVP, a
>    request MUST be sent to IANA [RFC2434], along with an explanation of
>    the new AVP value.  IANA considerations for AVP values are discussed

This is not completely correct. IANA records the registrations, but
since the spaces have been defined to be registered via IETF Consensus,
you cannot simply go to IANA and ask for a value. You need to write an
RFC and get it approved via a WG or AD sponsoring. Suggested text:

  ... track AVP, the IETF needs to approve a new RFC that describes the
AVP value. IANA considerations ...

This section does not describe how to allocate values in other AVPs. Are
there informational IETF Diameter AVPs? But there surely are vendor
specific AVPs. I would suggest a reformulation of the entire paragraph
as follows:

   In order to allocate a new AVP value for AVPs defined in the Diameter
Base
   protocol, the IETF needs to approve a new RFC that describes the AVP
value.
   IANA considerations for these AVP values are discussed in Section 11.4.

   The allocation of AVP values for other AVPs is guided by the IANA
considerations
   of the documents that defines those AVPs. Typically, allocation of
new values
   for an AVP defined in an IETF RFC should require IETF Review [2434bis],
   where as values for vendor-specific AVPs can be allocated by the vendor.

Also, I would suggest switching to
draft-narten-iana-considerations-rfc2434bis terminology rather than RFC
2434. It uses "IETF Review" instead of "IETF Consensus".

>    In order to create a new standards track AVP, a request MUST be sent
>    to IANA with a reference to the specification that defines the AVP.
>    IANA considerations for AVPs are discussed in Section 11.1.1.

This has similar issues as from above. Again, the IANA considerations
section is actually more informative than this. There are different
cases, >3 attributes, <3 attributes, what kind of spec you are writing
(ps/inf/otherrfc/othersdo), etc. I would rewrite the above as:

The creation of new AVPs can happen in various ways. The recommended
approach is to define a new general-purpose AVP in a standards track RFC
approved by the IETF. However, as described in Section 11.1.1 there are
also other mechanisms.

>    An implementation MAY add arbitrary non-mandatory AVPs to a command
>    defined in an application, including vendor-specific AVPs without
>    needing to define a new application.  This can be done if the
>    commands ABNF allows for it. 

I am not happy with the last statement. There are some commands which do
not allow any AVP to appear at the end, but I think that is a mistake
and we should fix that bug. If you look at the RADIUS developments, the
ability to add new attributes has been extremely useful.

Just to clarify, are we suggesting that we make "* [AVP]" implicit on 
any/all commands ?

Just recommend that this be in the ABNF of all commands. And fix the
commands that don't have this right now, DPR, DPA, DWR, and DWA.
Obviously, I don't think we are going to extend these commands but I
think this is a good policy to have.
