Network Working Group S. KilleRequest for Comments: 1836 ISODE ConsortiumCategory: Experimental August 1995Representing the O/R Address hierarchy in theX.500 Directory Information TreeStatus of this Memo This memo defines an Experimental Protocol for the Internet community. This memo does not specify an Internet standard of any kind. Discussion and suggestions for improvement are requested. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.Abstract This document defines a representation of the O/R Address hierarchy in the Directory Information Tree [6,1]. This is useful for a range of purposes, including:o Support for MHS Routing [4].o Support for X.400/RFC 822 address mappings [2,5].

The O/R Address Hierarchy An O/R Address hierarchy is represented in the X.500 directory by associating directory name components with O/R Address components. An example of this is given in Figure 1. The object classes and attributes required to support this representation are defined in Figure 2. The schema, which defines the hierarchy in which theseKille Experimental [Page 1]
RFC 1836 O/R Addresses in the X.500 DIT August 1995 objects are represented in the directory information tree is specified in Table 1. A given object class defined in the table will always be higher in the DIT than an object class defined lower down the table. Valid combinations of O/R Address components are defined in X.400. /\ / \ C=GB / \ Numeric-C=234 / \ / \ / \ +------------+<----------------+----+ | Country | | | +------------+ +----+ /\ / \ / \ / \ ADMD=" " / \ ADMD=Gold 400 +-------------+ +------------+ | ADMD | | ADMD | +-------------+ +------------+ \ \ \ \ \ PRMD=UK.AC \ PRMD=UK.AC \ \ +----------+ +----+ | PRMD |< -----------| | +----------+ +----+ / / O=UCL / / +------------+ | MHS-Org | +------------+ \ \ OU=CS \ \ +-----------+ | MHS-OU | +-----------+ Figure 1: Example O/R Address TreeKille Experimental [Page 2]

The representation is defined so that it is straightforward to make a mechanical transformation in either direction. This requires that each node is named by an attribute whose type can determine the mapping.2. Where there are multiple domain defined attributes, the first in the sequence is the most significant.3. Physical Delivery (postal) addresses are not represented in this hierarchy. This is primarily because physical delivery can be handled by the Access Unit routing mechanisms defined in [4], and there is no need for this representation.4. Terminal and network forms of address are not handled, except for X.121 form, which is useful for addressing faxes.5. MHSCountry is defined as a subclass of Country, and so the same entry will be used for MHS Routing as for the rest of the DIT.6. The numeric country code will be an alias.7. ADMD will always be present in the hierarchy.This is true in the case of " " and of "0". This facilitates an easy mechanical transformation between the two forms of address.8. Each node is named by the relevant part of the O/R Address.9. Aliases may be used in other parts of the tree, in order to normalise alternate values. Where an alias is used, the value of the alias should be present as an alternate value in the node aliased to. Aliases may not be used for domain defined attributes.10. Domain Defined Attributes are named by a multi-valued RDN (Relative Distinguished Name), consisting of the type and value. This is done so that standard attribute syntaxes can be used.Kille Experimental [Page 6]
RFC 1836 O/R Addresses in the X.500 DIT August 199511. Where an O/R Address has a valid Printable String and T.61 form, both must be present, with one as an alias for the other. This is so that direct lookup of the name will work, independent of the variant used. When both are present in an O/R Address being looked up, either may be used to construct the distinguished name.12. Personal name is handled by use of the mHSPerson object class. Each of the components of the personal name will be present in the relative distinguished name, which will usually be multi-valued. The relationship between X.400 O/R Addresses and the X.400 Entries (Attribute Type and Object Class) are given in Table 2. Where there are multiple Organizational Units or Domain Defined Attributes, each component is mapped onto a single X.500 entry. Note: When an X.121 address is used for addressing fax transmission, this may only be done relative to the PRMD or ADMD. This is in line with the current X.400 standards position. This means that it is not possible to use this form of addressing for an organisational or departmental fax gateway service.O/R Address Object Class Naming Attribute----------- ------------ ----------------C mHSCountry countryName or mHSNumericCountryNameA aDMD aDMDNameP pRMD pRMDNameO mHSOrganization mHSOrganizationNameOU/OU1/OU2 mHSOrganizationalUnit mHSOrganizationalUnitNameOU3/OU4PN mHSPerson personNameCN mHSNamedObject mHSCommonNameX121 mHSX121 mHSX121AddressT-ID mHSTerminalID mHSTerminalIDNameUA-ID mHSNumericUserIdentifier mHSNumericUserIdentifierNameDDA mHSDomainDefinedAttribute mHSDomainDefinedAttributeType and mHSDomainDefinedAttributeValue Table 2: O/R Address relationship to Directory NameKille Experimental [Page 7]
RFC 1836 O/R Addresses in the X.500 DIT August 19952. Notation O/R Addresses are written in the standard X.400 Notation. Distinguished Names use the string representation of distinguished names defined in [3]. The keywords used for the attributes defined in this specification are given in Table 3.3. Example Representation The O/R Address: I=S; S=Kille; OU1=CS; O=UCL, P=UK.AC; A=Gold 400; C=GB; would be represented in the directory as: MHS-I=S + MHS-S=Kille, MHS-OU=CS, MHS-O=UCL, Attribute Keyword --------- ------- mHSNumericCountryName MHS-Numeric-Country aDMDName ADMD pRMDName PRMD mHSOrganizationName MHS-O mHSOrganizationalUnitName MHS-OU mHSSurname MHS-S mHSGivenName MHS-G mHSInitials MHS-I mHSGenerationalQualifier MHS-GQ mHSCommonName MHS-CN mHSX121Address MHS-X121 mHSDomainDefinedAttributeType MHS-DDA-Type mHSDomainDefinedAttributeValue MHS-DDA-Value mHSTerminalIDName MHS-T-ID mHSNumericeUserIdentifierName MHS-UA-ID Table 3: Keywords for String DN Representation PRMD=UK.AC, ADMD=Gold 400, C=GBKille Experimental [Page 8]
RFC 1836 O/R Addresses in the X.500 DIT August 19954. Mapping from O/R Address to Directory Name The primary application of this mapping is to take an X.400 encoded O/R Address and to generate an equivalent directory name. This mapping is only used for selected types of O/R Address: o Mnemonic form o Numeric form o Terminal form, where country is present and X121 addressing is used Other forms of O/R address are handled by Access Unit mechanisms. The O/R Address is treated as an ordered list, with the order as defined in Table 1. For each O/R Address attribute, generate the equivalent directory naming attribute. In most cases, the mapping is mechanical. Printable String or Teletex encodings are chosen as appropriate. Where both forms are present in the O/R Address, either form may be used to generate the distinguished name. Both will be represented in the DIT. There are two special cases: 1. A DDA generates a multi-valued RDN 2. The Personal Name is mapped to a multi-valued RDN In many cases, an O/R Address will be provided, and only the higher components of the address will be represented in the DIT. In this case, the "longest possible match" should be returned.5. Mapping from Directory Name to O/R Address The reverse mapping is also needed in some cases. All of the naming attributes are unique, so the mapping is mechanically reversible.6. Acknowledgements Acknowledgements for work on this document are given in [4].Kille Experimental [Page 9]
