It is a   local, per-connection parameter.  This document specifies a new TCP   option -- the TCP User Timeout Option -- that allows one end of a TCP   connection to advertise its current user timeout value.  This   information provides advice to the other end of the TCP connection to   adapt its user timeout accordingly.  Increasing the user timeouts on   both ends of a TCP connection allows it to survive extended periods   without end-to-end connectivity.  Decreasing the user timeouts allows   busy servers to explicitly notify their clients that they will   maintain the connection state only for a short time without   connectivity.Eggert & Gont               Standards Track                     [Page 1]

Introduction   The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) specification [RFC0793]   defines a local, per-connection "user timeout" parameter that   specifies the maximum amount of time that transmitted data may remain   unacknowledged before TCP will forcefully close the corresponding   connection.  Applications can set and change this parameter with OPEN   and SEND calls.  If an end-to-end connectivity disruption lasts   longer than the user timeout, a sender will receive no   acknowledgments for any transmission attempt, including keep-alives,   and it will close the TCP connection when the user timeout occurs.   This document specifies a new TCP option -- the TCP User Timeout   Option (UTO) -- that allows one end of a TCP connection to advertise   its current user timeout value.  This information provides advice to   the other end of the connection to adapt its user timeout   accordingly.  That is, TCP remains free to disregard the advice   provided by the UTO option if local policies suggest it to be   appropriate.   Increasing the user timeouts on both ends of a TCP connection allows   it to survive extended periods without end-to-end connectivity.   Decreasing the user timeouts allows busy servers to explicitly notify   their clients that they will maintain the connection state only for a   short time without connectivity.Eggert & Gont               Standards Track                     [Page 2]

RFC 5482                TCP User Timeout Option               March 2009   In the absence of an application-specified user timeout, the TCP   specification [RFC0793] defines a default user timeout of 5 minutes.   The Host Requirements RFC [RFC1122] refines this definition by   introducing two thresholds, R1 and R2 (R2 > R1), that control the   number of retransmission attempts for a single segment.  It suggests   that TCP should notify applications when R1 is reached for a segment,   and close the connection when R2 is reached.  [RFC1122] also defines   the recommended values for R1 (3 retransmissions) and R2 (100   seconds), noting that R2 for SYN segments should be at least 3   minutes.  Instead of a single user timeout, some TCP implementations   offer finer-grained policies.  For example, Solaris supports   different timeouts depending on whether a TCP connection is in the   SYN-SENT, SYN-RECEIVED, or ESTABLISHED state [SOLARIS].   Although some TCP implementations allow applications to set their   local user timeout, TCP has no in-protocol mechanism to signal   changes to the local user timeout to the other end of a connection.   This causes local changes to be ineffective in allowing a connection   to survive extended periods without connectivity, because the other   end will still close the connection after its user timeout expires.   The ability to inform the other end of a connection about the local   user timeout can improve TCP operation in scenarios that are   currently not well supported.  One example of such a scenario is   mobile hosts that change network attachment points.  Such hosts,   maybe using Mobile IP [RFC3344], HIP [RFC4423], or transport-layer   mobility mechanisms [TCP_MOB], are only intermittently connected to   the Internet.  In between connected periods, mobile hosts may   experience periods without end-to-end connectivity.  Other factors   that can cause transient connectivity disruptions are high levels of   congestion or link or routing failures inside the network.  In these   scenarios, a host may not know exactly when or for how long   connectivity disruptions will occur, but it might be able to   determine an increased likelihood for such events based on past   mobility patterns and thus benefit from using longer user timeouts.   In other scenarios, the time and duration of a connectivity   disruption may even be predictable.  For example, a node in space   might experience connectivity disruptions due to line-of-sight   blocking by planetary bodies.  The timing of these events may be   computable from orbital mechanics.2.  Conventions   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this   document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].Eggert & Gont               Standards Track                     [Page 3]

RFC 5482                TCP User Timeout Option               March 20093.  Operation   Use of the TCP User Timeout Option can be either enabled on a per-   connection basis, e.g., through an API option, or controlled by a   system-wide setting.  TCP maintains four per-connection state   variables to control the operation of the UTO option, three of which   (ADV_UTO, ENABLED, and CHANGEABLE) are new:   USER_TIMEOUT      TCP's USER TIMEOUT parameter, as specified in [RFC0793].   ADV_UTO      UTO option advertised to the remote TCP peer.  This is an      application-specified value, and may be specified on a system-wide      basis.  If unspecified, it defaults to the default system-wide      USER TIMEOUT.   ENABLED (Boolean)      Flag that controls whether the UTO option is enabled for a      connection.  This flag applies to both sending and receiving.      Defaults to false.   CHANGEABLE (Boolean)      Flag that controls whether USER_TIMEOUT (TCP's USER TIMEOUT      parameter) may be changed based on an UTO option received from the      other end of the connection.  Defaults to true and becomes false      when an application explicitly sets USER_TIMEOUT.   Note that an exchange of UTO options between both ends of a   connection is not a binding negotiation.  Transmission of a UTO   option is a suggestion that the other end consider adapting its user   timeout.  This adaptation only happens if the other end of the   connection has explicitly allowed it (both ENABLED and CHANGEABLE are   true).   Before opening a connection, an application that wishes to use the   UTO option enables its use by setting ENABLED to true.  It may choose   an appropriate local UTO by explicitly setting ADV_UTO; otherwise,   UTO is set to the default USER TIMEOUT value.  Finally, the   application should determine whether it will allow the local USER   TIMEOUT to change based on received UTO options from the other end of   a connection.  The default is to allow this for connections that do   not have specific user timeout concerns.  If an application   explicitly sets the USER_TIMEOUT, CHANGEABLE MUST become false in   order to prevent UTO options (from the other end) from overriding   local application requests.  Alternatively, applications can set or   clear CHANGEABLE directly through API calls.Eggert & Gont               Standards Track                     [Page 4]

RFC 5482                TCP User Timeout Option               March 2009   Performing these steps before an active or passive open causes UTO   options to be exchanged in the SYN and SYN-ACK packets and is a   reliable way to initially exchange, and potentially adapt to, UTO   values.  TCP implementations MAY provide system-wide default settings   for the ENABLED, ADV_UTO and CHANGEABLE connection parameters.   In addition to exchanging UTO options in the SYN segments, a   connection that has enabled UTO options SHOULD include a UTO option   in the first packet that does not have the SYN flag set.  This helps   to minimize the amount of state information TCP must keep for   connections in non-synchronized states.  Also, it is particularly   useful when mechanisms such as "SYN cookies" [RFC4987] are   implemented, allowing a newly-established TCP connection to benefit   from the information advertised by the UTO option, even if the UTO   contained in the initial SYN segment was not recorded.   A host that supports the UTO option SHOULD include one in the next   possible outgoing segment whenever it starts using a new user timeout   for the connection.  This allows the other end of the connection to   adapt its local user timeout accordingly.  A TCP implementation that   does not support the UTO option MUST silently ignore it [RFC1122],   thus ensuring interoperability.   Hosts MUST impose upper and lower limits on the user timeouts they   use for a connection.Section 3.1 discusses user timeout limits and   potentially problematic effects of some user timeout settings.   Finally, it is worth noting that TCP's option space is limited to 40   bytes.  As a result, if other TCP options are in use, they may   already consume all the available TCP option space, thus preventing   the use of the UTO option specified in this document.  Therefore, TCP   option space issues should be considered before enabling the UTO   option.3.1.  Changing the Local User Timeout   When a host receives a TCP User Timeout Option, it must decide   whether to change the local user timeout of the corresponding   connection.  If the CHANGEABLE flag is false, USER_TIMEOUT MUST NOT   be changed, regardless of the received UTO option.  Without this   restriction, the UTO option would modify TCP semantics, because an   application-requested USER TIMEOUT could be overridden by peer   requests.  In this case TCP SHOULD, however, notify the application   about the user timeout value received from the other end system.Eggert & Gont               Standards Track                     [Page 5]

RFC 5482                TCP User Timeout Option               March 2009   In general, unless the application on the local host has requested a   specific USER TIMEOUT for the connection, CHANGEABLE will be true and   hosts SHOULD adjust the local TCP USER TIMEOUT (USER_TIMEOUT) in   response to receiving a UTO option, as described in the remainder of   this section.   The UTO option specifies the user timeout in seconds or minutes,   rather than in number of retransmissions or round-trip times (RTTs).   Thus, the UTO option allows hosts to exchange user timeout values   from 1 second to over 9 hours at a granularity of seconds, and from 1   minute to over 22 days at a granularity of minutes.   Very short USER TIMEOUT values can affect TCP transmissions over   high-delay paths.  If the user timeout occurs before an   acknowledgment for an outstanding segment arrives, possibly due to   packet loss, the connection closes.  Many TCP implementations default   to USER TIMEOUT values of a few minutes.  Although the UTO option   allows suggestion of short timeouts, applications advertising them   should consider these effects.   Long USER TIMEOUT values allow hosts to tolerate extended periods   without end-to-end connectivity.  However, they also require hosts to   maintain the TCP state information associated with connections for   long periods of time.Section 6 discusses the security implications   of long timeout values.   To protect against these effects, implementations MUST impose limits   on the user timeout values they accept and use.  The remainder of   this section describes a RECOMMENDED scheme to limit TCP's USER   TIMEOUT based on upper and lower limits.   Under the RECOMMENDED scheme, and when CHANGEABLE is true, each end   SHOULD compute the local USER TIMEOUT for a connection according to   this formula:   USER_TIMEOUT = min(U_LIMIT, max(ADV_UTO, REMOTE_UTO, L_LIMIT))   Each field is to be interpreted as follows:   USER_TIMEOUT      USER TIMEOUT value to be adopted by the local TCP for this      connection.   U_LIMIT      Current upper limit imposed on the user timeout of a connection by      the local host.Eggert & Gont               Standards Track                     [Page 6]

RFC 5482                TCP User Timeout Option               March 2009   ADV_UTO      User timeout advertised to the remote TCP peer in a TCP User      Timeout Option.   REMOTE_UTO      Last user timeout value received from the other end in a TCP User      Timeout Option.   L_LIMIT      Current lower limit imposed on the user timeout of a connection by      the local host.   The RECOMMENDED formula results in the maximum of the two advertised   values, adjusted for the configured upper and lower limits, to be   adopted for the user timeout of the connection on both ends.  The   rationale is that choosing the maximum of the two values will let the   connection survive longer periods without end-to-end connectivity.   If the end that announced the lower of the two user timeout values   did so in order to reduce the amount of TCP state information that   must be kept on the host, it can close or abort the connection   whenever it wants.   It must be noted that the two endpoints of the connection will not   necessarily adopt the same user timeout.   Enforcing a lower limit (L_LIMIT) prevents connections from closing   due to transient network conditions, including temporary congestion,   mobility hand-offs, and routing instabilities.   An upper limit (U_LIMIT) can reduce the effect of resource exhaustion   attacks.Section 6 discusses the details of these attacks.   Note that these limits MAY be specified as system-wide constants or   at other granularities, such as on per-host, per-user, per-outgoing-   interface, or even per-connection basis.  Furthermore, these limits   need not be static.  For example, they MAY be a function of system   resource utilization or attack status and could be dynamically   adapted.   The Host Requirements RFC [RFC1122] does not impose any limits on the   length of the user timeout.  However, it recommends a time interval   of at least 100 seconds.  Consequently, the lower limit (L_LIMIT)   SHOULD be set to at least 100 seconds when following the RECOMMENDED   scheme described in this section.  Adopting a user timeout smaller   than the current retransmission timeout (RTO) for the connection   would likely cause the connection to be aborted unnecessarily.   Therefore, the lower limit (L_LIMIT) MUST be larger than the currentEggert & Gont               Standards Track                     [Page 7]

RFC 5482                TCP User Timeout Option               March 2009   retransmission timeout (RTO) for the connection.  It is worth noting   that an upper limit may be imposed on the RTO, provided it is at   least 60 seconds [RFC2988].3.2.  UTO Option Reliability   The TCP User Timeout Option is an advisory TCP option that does not   change processing of subsequent segments.  Unlike other TCP options,   it need not be exchanged reliably.  Consequently, the specification   does not define a reliability handshake for UTO option exchanges.   When a segment that carries a UTO option is lost, the other end will   simply not have the opportunity to update its local USER TIMEOUT.   Implementations MAY implement local mechanisms to improve delivery   reliability, such as retransmitting a UTO option when they retransmit   a segment that originally carried it, or "attaching" the option to a   byte in the stream and retransmitting the option whenever that byte   or its ACK are retransmitted.   It is important to note that although these mechanisms can improve   transmission reliability for the UTO option, they do not guarantee   delivery (a three-way handshake would be required for this).   Consequently, implementations MUST NOT assume that UTO options are   transmitted reliably.3.3.  Option Format   Sending a TCP User Timeout Option informs the other end of the   connection of the current local user timeout and suggests that the   other end adapt its user timeout accordingly.  The user timeout value   included in a UTO option contains the ADV_UTO value that is expected   to be adopted for the TCP's USER TIMEOUT parameter during the   synchronized states of a connection (ESTABLISHED, FIN-WAIT-1, FIN-   WAIT-2, CLOSE-WAIT, CLOSING, or LAST-ACK).  Connections in other   states MUST use the default timeout values defined in [RFC0793] and   [RFC1122].      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     +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+     |   Kind = 28   |   Length = 4  |G|        User Timeout         |     +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+   (One tick mark represents one bit.)

RFC 5482                TCP User Timeout Option               March 2009   Figure 1 shows the format of the TCP User Timeout Option.  It   contains these fields:   Kind (8 bits)      This MUST be 28, i.e., the TCP option number [RFC0793] that has      been assigned by IANA (seeSection 7).   Length (8 bits)      Length of the TCP option in octets [RFC0793]; its value MUST be 4.   Granularity (1 bit)      Granularity bit, indicating the granularity of the "User Timeout"      field.  When set (G = 1), the time interval in the "User Timeout"      field MUST be interpreted as minutes.  Otherwise (G = 0), the time      interval in the "User Timeout" field MUST be interpreted as      seconds.   User Timeout (15 bits)      Specifies the user timeout suggestion for this connection.  It      MUST be interpreted as a 15-bit unsigned integer.  The granularity      of the timeout (minutes or seconds) depends on the "G" field.3.4.  Reserved Option Values   A TCP User Timeout Option with a "User Timeout" field of zero and a   "Granularity" bit of either minutes (1) or seconds (0) is reserved   for future use.  Current TCP implementations MUST NOT send it and   MUST ignore it upon reception.4.  Interoperability Issues   This section discusses interoperability issues related to introducing   the TCP User Timeout Option.4.1.  Middleboxes   A TCP implementation that does not support the TCP User Timeout   Option MUST silently ignore it [RFC1122], thus ensuring   interoperability.  In a study of the effects of middleboxes on   transport protocols, Medina et al. have shown that the vast majority   of modern TCP stacks correctly handle unknown TCP options [MEDINA].   In this study, 3% of connections failed when an unknown TCP option   appeared in the middle of a connection.  Because the number of   failures caused by unknown options is small and they are a result of   incorrectly implemented TCP stacks that violate existing requirements   to ignore unknown options, they do not warrant special measures.   Thus, this document does not define a mechanism to negotiate support   of the TCP User Timeout Option during the three-way handshake.Eggert & Gont               Standards Track                     [Page 9]

RFC 5482                TCP User Timeout Option               March 2009   Implementations may want to exchange UTO options on the very first   data segments after the three-way handshake to determine if such a   middlebox exists on the path.  When segments carrying UTO options are   persistently lost, an implementation should turn off the use of UTO   for the connection.  When the connection itself is reset, an   implementation may be able to transparently re-establish another   connection instance that does not use UTO before any application data   has been successfully exchanged.   Stateful firewalls usually time out connection state after a period   of inactivity.  If such a firewall exists along the path, it may   close or abort connections regardless of the use of the TCP User   Timeout Option.  In the future, such firewalls may learn to parse the   TCP User Timeout Option in unencrypted TCP segments and adapt   connection state management accordingly.4.2.  TCP Keep-Alives   Some TCP implementations, such as those in BSD systems, use a   different abort policy for TCP keep-alives than for user data.  Thus,   the TCP keep-alive mechanism might abort a connection that would   otherwise have survived the transient period without connectivity.   Therefore, if a connection that enables keep-alives is also using the   TCP User Timeout Option, then the keep-alive timer MUST be set to a   value larger than that of the adopted USER TIMEOUT.5.  Programming and Manageability Considerations   The IETF specification for TCP [RFC0793] includes a simple, abstract   application programming interface (API).  Similarly, the API for the   UTO extension inSection 3 is kept abstract.  TCP implementations,   however, usually provide more complex and feature-rich APIs.  The   "socket" API that originated with BSD Unix and is now standardized by   POSIX is one such example [POSIX].  It is expected that TCP   implementations that choose to include the UTO extension will extend   their API to allow applications to use and configure its parameters.   The MIB objects defined in [RFC4022] and [RFC4898] allow management   of TCP connections.  It is expected that revisions to these documents   will include definitions of objects for managing the UTO extension   defined in this document.6.  Security Considerations   Lengthening user timeouts has obvious security implications.   Flooding attacks cause denial of service by forcing servers to commit   resources for maintaining the state of throw-away connections.   However, TCP implementations do not become more vulnerable to simpleEggert & Gont               Standards Track                    [Page 10]

RFC 5482                TCP User Timeout Option               March 2009   SYN flooding by implementing the TCP User Timeout Option, because   user timeouts exchanged during the handshake only affect the   synchronized states (ESTABLISHED, FIN-WAIT-1, FIN-WAIT-2, CLOSE-WAIT,   CLOSING, LAST-ACK), which simple SYN floods never reach.   However, when an attacker completes the three-way handshakes of its   throw-away connections, it can amplify the effects of resource   exhaustion attacks because the attacked server must maintain the   connection state associated with the throw-away connections for   longer durations.  Because connection state is kept longer, lower-   frequency attack traffic, which may be more difficult to detect, can   already exacerbate resource exhaustion.   Several approaches can help mitigate this issue.  First,   implementations can require prior peer authentication, e.g., using   IPsec [RFC4301] or TCP-MD5 [RFC2385], before accepting long user   timeouts for the peer's connections.  (Implementors that decide to   use TCP-MD5 for this purpose are encouraged to monitor the   development of TCP-AO [AUTH_OPT], its designated successor, and   update their implementation when it is published as an RFC.)  A   similar approach is for a host to start accepting long user timeouts   for an established connection only after in-band authentication has   occurred, for example, after a TLS handshake across the connection   has succeeded [RFC5246].  Although these are arguably the most   complete solutions, they depend on external mechanisms to establish a   trust relationship.   A second alternative that does not depend on external mechanisms   would introduce a per-peer limit on the number of connections that   may use increased user timeouts.  Several variants of this approach   are possible, such as fixed limits or shortening accepted user   timeouts with a rising number of connections.  Although this   alternative does not eliminate resource exhaustion attacks from a   single peer, it can limit their effects.  Reducing the number of   high-UTO connections a server supports in the face of an attack turns   that attack into a denial-of-service attack against the service of   high-UTO connections.   Per-peer limits cannot protect against distributed denial-of-service   attacks, where multiple clients coordinate a resource exhaustion   attack that uses long user timeouts.  To protect against such   attacks, TCP implementations could reduce the duration of accepted   user timeouts with increasing resource utilization.   TCP implementations under attack may be forced to shed load by   resetting established connections.  Some load-shedding heuristics,   such as resetting connections with long idle times first, can   negatively affect service for intermittently connected, trusted peersEggert & Gont               Standards Track                    [Page 11]

RFC 5482                TCP User Timeout Option               March 2009   that have suggested long user timeouts.  On the other hand, resetting   connections to untrusted peers that use long user timeouts may be   effective.  In general, using the peers' level of trust as a   parameter during the load-shedding decision process may be useful.   Note that if TCP needs to close or abort connections with a long TCP   User Timeout Option to shed load, these connections are still no   worse off than without the option.   Finally, upper and lower limits on user timeouts, discussed inSection 3.1, can be an effective tool to limit the impact of these   sorts of attacks.7.  IANA Considerations   This section is to be interpreted according to [RFC5226].   This document does not define any new namespaces.  IANA has allocated   a new 8-bit TCP option number (28) for the UTO option from the "TCP   Option Kind Numbers" registry maintained athttp://www.iana.org.8.
