It is a   statically defined distribution of the EID namespace among a set of   LISP-speaking servers called "DDT nodes".  Each DDT node is   configured as "authoritative" for one or more EID-prefixes, along   with the set of RLOCs for Map-Servers or "child" DDT nodes to which   more-specific EID-prefixes are delegated.Status of This Memo   This document is not an Internet Standards Track specification; it is   published for examination, experimental implementation, and   evaluation.

RFC 8111                        LISP-DDT                        May 20171.  Introduction   The Locator/ID Separation Protocol (LISP) [RFC6830] specifies an   architecture and mechanism for replacing the addresses currently used   by IP with two separate namespaces:   o  Endpoint Identifiers (EIDs), used end to end for terminating      transport-layer associations, and   o  Routing Locators (RLOCs), which are bound to topological locations      and are used for routing and forwarding through the Internet      infrastructure.   [RFC6833] specifies an interface between a database storing   EID-to-RLOC mappings and LISP devices that need this information for   packet forwarding.  The internal organization of such a database is   beyond the scope of [RFC6833].  Multiple architectures of the   database have been proposed, each having its advantages and   disadvantages (see, for example, [RFC6836] and [RFC6837]).   This document specifies an architecture for a database of LISP   EID-to-RLOC mappings, with an emphasis on high scalability.  The   LISP Delegated Database Tree (LISP-DDT) is a hierarchical distributed   database that embodies the delegation of authority to provide   mappings, i.e., its internal structure mirrors the hierarchical   delegation of address space.  It also provides delegation information   to Map-Resolvers, which use the information to locate EID-to-RLOC   mappings.  A Map-Resolver that needs to locate a given mapping will   follow a path through the tree-structured database and will contact,   one after another, the DDT nodes along that path until it reaches the   leaf DDT node(s) authoritative for the mapping it is seeking.   LISP offers a general-purpose mechanism for mapping between EIDs and   RLOCs.  In organizing a database of EID-to-RLOC mappings, this   specification extends the definition of the EID numbering space by   logically prepending and appending several fields for purposes of   defining the database index key:   o  Database-ID (DBID) (16 bits),   o  Instance Identifier (IID) (32 bits),   o  Address Family Identifier (AFI) (16 bits), and   o  EID-prefix (variable, according to the AFI value).   The resulting concatenation of these fields is termed an "Extended   EID-prefix", or XEID-prefix.Fuller, et al.                Experimental                      [Page 4]

RFC 8111                        LISP-DDT                        May 2017   LISP-DDT defines a new device type, the DDT node, that is configured   as authoritative for one or more XEID-prefixes.  It is also   configured with the set of more-specific sub-prefixes that are   further delegated to other DDT nodes.  To delegate a sub-prefix, the   "parent" DDT node is configured with the RLOCs of each child DDT node   that is authoritative for the sub-prefix.  Each RLOC either points to   a DDT Map-Server (MS) to which an Egress Tunnel Router (ETR) has   registered that sub-prefix or points to another DDT node in the   database tree that further delegates the sub-prefix.  See [RFC6833]   for a description of the functionality of the Map-Server and   Map-Resolver.  Note that the target of a delegation must always be an   RLOC (not an EID) to avoid any circular dependency.   To provide a mechanism for traversing the database tree, LISP-DDT   defines a new LISP message type, the Map-Referral, which is returned   to the sender of a Map-Request when the receiving DDT node can refer   the sender to another DDT node that has more detailed information.   SeeSection 6 for the definition of the Map-Referral message.   To find an EID-to-RLOC mapping, a LISP-DDT client, usually a DDT   Map-Resolver, starts by sending an Encapsulated Map-Request to a   preconfigured DDT node RLOC.  The DDT node responds with a   Map-Referral message indicating that either (1) it will find the   requested mapping to complete processing of the request or (2) the   DDT client should contact another DDT node that has more-specific   information; in the latter case, the DDT node then sends a new   Encapsulated Map-Request to the next DDT node and the process repeats   in an iterative manner.   Conceptually, this is similar to the way that a client of the Domain   Name System (DNS) follows referrals (DNS responses that contain only   NS records) from a series of DNS servers until it finds an answer.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 inBCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all   capitals, as shown here.Fuller, et al.

RFC 8111                        LISP-DDT                        May 20173.  Definitions of Terms   Extended EID (XEID):  a LISP EID extended with data uniquely      identifying the address space to which it belongs (LISP IID,      address family, etc.).  SeeSection 4.1 for a detailed description      of XEID data.   Extended EID-prefix (XEID-prefix):  a LISP EID-prefix prepended with      XEID data.  An XEID-prefix is used as a key index into the DDT      database.  XEID-prefixes are used to describe database      organization and are not seen as a single entity in protocol      messages, though messages contain individual fields constituting      XEID-prefixes.   DDT node:  a network infrastructure component responsible for      specific XEID-prefix(es) and for the delegation of more-specific      sub-prefixes to other DDT nodes.   DDT client:  a network infrastructure component that sends DDT      Map-Request messages and implements the iterative following of      Map-Referral results.  Typically, a DDT client will be a      Map-Resolver (as defined by [RFC6833]), but it is also possible      for an Ingress Tunnel Router (ITR) to implement DDT client      functionality.   DDT Map-Server:  a DDT node that also implements Map-Server      functionality (forwarding Map-Requests and/or returning      Map-Replies if offering a proxy Map-Reply service) for a subset of      its delegated prefixes.  Map-Server functions, including proxying      Map-Replies, are described in [RFC6833].   DDT Map-Server peers:  a list of all DDT Map-Servers performing      Map-Server functionality for the same prefix.  If peers are      configured on a DDT Map-Server, then the latter will provide      complete information about the prefix in its Map-Replies;      otherwise, the Map-Server will mark the returned reply as      potentially incomplete.   DDT Map-Resolver:  a network infrastructure element that implements      both DDT client functionality and Map-Resolver functionality as      defined by [RFC6833].  A DDT Map-Resolver accepts Map-Requests      from ITRs, sends DDT Map-Requests to DDT nodes, and implements the      iterative following of Map-Referrals.  Note that Map-Resolvers      do not respond to clients that sent Map-Requests; they only ensure      that the Map-Request has been forwarded to a LISP device (ETR or      proxy Map-Server) that will provide an authoritative response to      the original requester.  A DDT Map-Resolver will typicallyFuller, et al.                Experimental                      [Page 6]

RFC 8111                        LISP-DDT                        May 2017      maintain a cache (termed the "referral cache") of previously      received Map-Referral message results containing RLOCs for DDT      nodes responsible for XEID-prefixes of interest.   Encapsulated Map-Request:  a LISP Map-Request that is carried within      an Encapsulated Control Message and that has an additional LISP      header prepended to it.  Sent to UDP destination port 4342.  The      "outer" addresses are globally routable IP addresses, also known      as RLOCs.  Used by an ITR when sending a Map-Request to a      Map-Resolver and by a Map-Server when forwarding a Map-Request to      an ETR as documented in [RFC6833].   DDT Map-Request:  an Encapsulated Map-Request sent by a DDT client to      a DDT node.  The "DDT-originated" flag is set in the encapsulation      header, indicating that the DDT node should return Map-Referral      messages if the Map-Request EID matches a delegated XEID-prefix      known to the DDT node.Section 7.3.1 describes how DDT      Map-Requests are sent.Section 5 defines the position of the      "DDT-originated" flag in the Encapsulated Control Message header.   Authoritative XEID-prefix:  an XEID-prefix delegated to a DDT node      and for which the DDT node may provide further delegations of      more-specific sub-prefixes.   Map-Referral:  a LISP message sent by a DDT node in response to a DDT      Map-Request for an XEID that matches a configured XEID-prefix      delegation.  A non-Negative Map-Referral includes a "referral" --      a set of RLOCs for DDT nodes that have information about the      more-specific XEID-prefix covering the requested XEID; a DDT      client "follows the referral" by sending another DDT Map-Request      to one of those RLOCs to obtain either an answer or another      referral to DDT nodes responsible for an XEID-prefix that is even      more specific.  See Sections7.1 and7.3.2 for details on the      sending and processing of Map-Referral messages.   Negative Map-Referral:  an answer from an authoritative DDT node that      there is no mapping for the requested XEID.  A Negative      Map-Referral is a Map-Referral sent in response to a DDT      Map-Request that matches an authoritative XEID-prefix but for      which there is no delegation configured (or no ETR registration,      if sent by a DDT Map-Server).   Pending Request List:  the set of outstanding requests for which a      DDT Map-Resolver has received Encapsulated Map-Requests from its      clients seeking EID-to-RLOC mapping for an XEID.  Each entry in      the list contains additional state needed by the      referral-following process, including the XEID, requester(s) of      the XEID (typically one or more ITRs), saved information about theFuller, et al.

RFC 8111                        LISP-DDT                        May 2017      last referral received and followed (matching XEID-prefix, action      code, RLOC set, index of the last RLOC queried in the RLOC set),      and any LISP-Security (LISP-SEC) information [LISP-SEC] that was      included in the DDT client Map-Request.  An entry in the list may      be interchangeably termed a "pending request list entry" or simply      a "pending request".   For definitions of other terms -- notably Map-Request, Map-Reply,   ITR, ETR, Map-Server, and Map-Resolver -- please consult the LISP   specification [RFC6830] and the LISP Mapping Service specification   [RFC6833].4.  Database Organization4.1.  XEID-Prefixes   A DDT database is indexed by Extended EID-prefixes (XEID-prefixes).   An XEID-prefix is a LISP EID-prefix, together with data extending it   to uniquely identify the address space of the prefix.  An XEID-prefix   is composed of four binary-encoded fields, ordered by significance:   DBID (16 bits), IID (32 bits), AFI (16 bits), and EID-prefix   (variable, according to the AFI value).  The fields are concatenated,   with the most significant fields as listed above.   The DBID is the LISP-DDT Database-ID, a 16-bit field provided to   allow the definition of multiple databases.  Implementations that are   compliant with this document must always set this field to 0.  Other   values of the DBID are reserved for future use.   The Instance ID (IID) is a 32-bit value describing the context of the   EID-prefix, if the latter is intended for use in an environment where   addresses may not be unique, such as in a Virtual Private Network   where the [RFC1918] address space is used.  SeeSection 5.5 of   [RFC6830] for more discussion of IIDs.  Encoding of the IID is   specified by [RFC8060].   The AFI is a 16-bit value defining the syntax of the EID-prefix.  AFI   values are assigned by IANA [AFI].4.2.  Structure of the DDT Database   The LISP-DDT database for each DDT node is organized as a tree   structure that is indexed by XEID-prefixes.  Leaves of the database   tree describe the delegation of authority between DDT nodes (seeSection 4.3 for details regarding delegation and information kept in   the database entries).Fuller, et al.                Experimental                      [Page 8]

RFC 8111                        LISP-DDT                        May 2017   DDT Map-Requests sent by the DDT client to DDT nodes always contain   specific values for the DBID, IID, and AFI; unspecified values or   ranges of values are never used for any of these fields.  Thus, an   XEID-prefix used as a key for searches in the database tree will have   a length of at least 64 bits.   A DDT node may, for example, be authoritative for a consecutive range   of 3-tuples (DBID, IID, AFI) and all associated EID-prefixes, or only   for a specific EID-prefix of a single 3-tuple.  Thus,   XEID-prefixes/keys of the database tree leaves may have lengths less   than, equal to, or more than 64 bits.   It is important to note that LISP-DDT does not store actual   EID-to-RLOC mappings; it is, rather, a distributed index that can be   used to find the devices (ETRs that registered their EIDs with DDT   Map-Servers) that can be queried with LISP to obtain those mappings.   Changes to EID-to-RLOC mappings are made on the ETRs that define   them, not to any DDT node configuration.  DDT node configuration   changes are only required when branches of the database hierarchy are   added, removed, or modified.4.3.  Configuring Prefix Delegation   Every DDT node is configured with one or more XEID-prefixes for which   it is authoritative, along with a list of delegations of   XEID-prefixes to other DDT nodes.  A DDT node is required to maintain   a list of delegations for all sub-prefixes of its authoritative   XEID-prefixes; it also may list "hints", which are prefixes that it   knows about that belong to its parents, to the root, or to any other   point in the XEID-prefix hierarchy.  A delegation (or hint) consists   of an XEID-prefix, a set of RLOCs for DDT nodes that have more   detailed knowledge of the XEID-prefix, and accompanying security   information (for details regarding security information exchange and   its use, seeSection 10).  Those RLOCs are returned in Map-Referral   messages when the DDT node receives a DDT Map-Request with an XEID   that matches a delegation.  A DDT Map-Server will also have a set of   sub-prefixes for which it accepts ETR mapping registrations and for   which it will forward (or answer, if it provides a proxy Map-Reply   service) Map-Requests.   One or more XEID-prefixes for which a DDT node is authoritative, and   the delegation of authority for sub-prefixes, are provided as part of   the configuration of the DDT node.  Implementations will likely   develop a language to express this prefix authority and delegation.   Since DDT configuration is static (i.e., not exchanged between DDT   nodes as part of the protocol itself), such language is   implementation dependent and is outside the scope of this   specification.Fuller, et al.                Experimental                      [Page 9]

RFC 8111                        LISP-DDT                        May 20174.3.1.  The Root DDT Node   The root DDT node is the logical "top" of the distributed database   hierarchy.  It is authoritative for all XEID-prefixes -- that is, for   all valid 3-tuples (DBID, IID, AFI) and their EID-prefixes.  A DDT   Map-Request that matches no configured XEID-prefix will be referred   to the root node (seeSection 8 for a formal description of   conditions where a DDT Map-Request is forwarded to the root node).   The root node in a particular instantiation of LISP-DDT therefore   MUST be configured, at a minimum, with delegations for all defined   IIDs and AFIs.5.  DDT Map-Request   A DDT client (usually a Map-Resolver) uses LISP Encapsulated Control   Messages (ECMs) to send Map-Request messages to a DDT node.  The   format of the ECM is defined by [RFC6830].  This specification adds   to the Encapsulated Control Message (ECM) header a new flag,   "DDT-originated", as shown in the diagram and described below.        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       +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+     / |                       IPv4 or IPv6 Header                     |   OH  |                      (uses RLOC addresses)                    |     \ |                                                               |       +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+     / |       Source Port = xxxx      |       Dest Port = 4342        |   UDP +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+     \ |           UDP Length          |        UDP Checksum           |       +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+   LH  |Type=8 |S|D|                Reserved                           |       +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+     / |                       IPv4 or IPv6 Header                     |   IH  |                  (uses RLOC or EID addresses)                 |     \ |                                                               |       +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+     / |       Source Port = xxxx      |       Dest Port = yyyy        |   UDP +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+     \ |           UDP Length          |        UDP Checksum           |       +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+   LCM |                      LISP Control Message                     |       +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+Fuller, et al.

RFC 8111                        LISP-DDT                        May 2017   D: The "DDT-originated" flag.  This flag is set by a DDT client to      indicate that the receiver SHOULD return Map-Referral messages as      appropriate.  The use of this flag is further described inSection 7.3.1.  This bit is allocated from LISP message header      bits marked as "Reserved" in [RFC6830].6.  The Map-Referral Message   This specification defines a new LISP message called the Map-Referral   message.  A Map-Referral message is sent by a DDT node to a   DDT client in response to a DDT Map-Request message.  SeeSection 6.4   for a detailed layout of the Map-Referral message fields.   The message consists of an action code along with delegation   information about the XEID-prefix that matches the requested XEID.6.1.  Action Codes   The action codes are as follows:   NODE-REFERRAL (0):  indicates that the replying DDT node has      delegated an XEID-prefix that matches the requested XEID to one or      more other DDT nodes.  The Map-Referral message contains a      "map-record" with additional information -- most significantly,      the set of RLOCs to which the prefix has been delegated -- that is      used by a DDT client to "follow" the referral.   MS-REFERRAL (1):  indicates that the replying DDT node has delegated      an XEID-prefix that matches the requested XEID to one or more DDT      Map-Servers.  It contains the same additional information as a      NODE-REFERRAL but is handled slightly differently by the receiving      DDT client (seeSection 7.3.2).   MS-ACK (2):  indicates that the replying DDT Map-Server received a      DDT Map-Request that matches an authoritative XEID-prefix for      which it has one or more registered ETRs.  This means that the      request has been forwarded to one of those ETRs to provide an      answer to the querying ITR.   MS-NOT-REGISTERED (3):  indicates that the replying DDT Map-Server      received a Map-Request for one of its configured XEID-prefixes      that has no ETRs registered.Fuller, et al.                Experimental                     [Page 11]

RFC 8111                        LISP-DDT                        May 2017   DELEGATION-HOLE (4):  indicates that the requested XEID matches a      non-delegated sub-prefix of the XEID space.  This is a non-LISP      "hole", which has not been delegated to any DDT Map-Server or ETR.      SeeSection 7.1.2 for details.  Also sent by a DDT Map-Server with      authoritative configuration covering the requested EID but for      which no specific site ETR is configured.   NOT-AUTHORITATIVE (5):  indicates that the replying DDT node received      a Map-Request for an XEID for which it is not authoritative and      has no configured matching hint referrals.  This can occur if a      cached referral has become invalid due to a change in the database      hierarchy.  However, if such a DDT node has a "hint" delegation      covering the requested EID, it MAY choose to return NODE-REFERRAL      or MS-REFERRAL as appropriate.  When returning action code      NOT-AUTHORITATIVE, the DDT node MUST provide the EID-prefix      received in the request and the TTL MUST be set to 0.6.2.  Referral Set   For "positive" action codes (NODE-REFERRAL, MS-REFERRAL, MS-ACK), a   DDT node MUST include in the Map-Referral message a list of RLOCs for   DDT nodes that are authoritative for the XEID-prefix being returned;   a DDT client uses this information to contact one of those DDT nodes   as it "follows" a referral.6.3.  "Incomplete" Flag   A DDT node sets the "Incomplete" flag in a Map-Referral message if   the Referral Set is incomplete; this is intended to prevent a DDT   client from caching a referral with incomplete information.  A DDT   node MUST set the "Incomplete" flag in the following cases:   o  If it is setting action code MS-ACK or MS-NOT-REGISTERED but the      matching XEID-prefix is not flagged as "complete" in the      configuration.  The XEID-prefix configuration on the DDT      Map-Server SHOULD be marked as "complete" when the configuration      of the XEID-prefix lists all "peer" DDT nodes that are also      authoritative for the same XEID-prefix or when it is known that a      local DDT node is the only authoritative node for the XEID-prefix.   o  If it is setting action code NOT-AUTHORITATIVE.Fuller, et al.

RFC 8111                        LISP-DDT                        May 20177.  DDT Network Elements and Their Operation   As described above, LISP-DDT introduces a new network element -- the   DDT node -- and extends the functionality of Map-Servers and   Map-Resolvers to send and receive Map-Referral messages.  The   operation of each of these devices is described below.7.1.  DDT Node   When a DDT node receives a DDT Map-Request, it compares the requested   XEID against its list of XEID-prefix delegations and its list of   authoritative XEID-prefixes, and proceeds as follows:7.1.1.  Matching of a Delegated Prefix (or Sub-prefix)   If the requested XEID matches one of the DDT node's delegated   prefixes, then a Map-Referral message is returned with the matching   more-specific XEID-prefix and the set of RLOCs for the referral   target DDT nodes, including associated security information (seeSection 10 for details on security).  If at least one DDT node of the   delegation is known to be a DDT Map-Server, then the Map-Referral   message SHOULD be sent with action code MS-REFERRAL to indicate to   the receiver that LISP-SEC information (if saved in the pending   request) SHOULD be included in the next DDT Map-Request; otherwise,   the action code NODE-REFERRAL SHOULD be used.   Note that a matched delegation does not have to be for a sub-prefix   of an authoritative prefix; in addition to being configured to   delegate sub-prefixes of an authoritative prefix, a DDT node may also   be configured with other XEID-prefixes for which it can provide   referrals to DDT nodes anywhere in the database hierarchy.  This   capability to define "shortcut hints" is never required to be   configured, but it may be a useful heuristic for reducing the number   of iterations needed to find an EID, particularly for private network   deployments.   Referral hints, if used properly, may reduce the number of referrals   a DDT client needs to follow to locate a DDT Map-Server authoritative   for the XEID-prefix being resolved.  On the other hand, the incorrect   use of hints may create circular dependencies (or "referral loops")   between DDT nodes.  A DDT client MUST be prepared to handle such   circular referrals.  SeeSection 7.3.4 for a discussion of referral   loops and measures that the DDT client must implement in order to   detect circular referrals and prevent infinite looping.   Another danger related to the use of hints is when a DDT deployment   spans multiple administrative domains (i.e., different authorities   manage DDT nodes in the same DDT database).  In this case, anFuller, et al.                Experimental                     [Page 17]

RFC 8111                        LISP-DDT                        May 2017   operator managing a DDT node may not be aware of the fact that the   node is being referred to by hints.  Locator addresses in hints may   become stale when referred DDT nodes are taken out of service or   change their locator addresses.7.1.2.  Missing Delegation from an Authoritative Prefix   If the requested XEID did not match a configured delegation but does   match an authoritative XEID-prefix, then the DDT node MUST return a   Negative Map-Referral that uses the least-specific XEID-prefix that   does not match any XEID-prefix delegated by the DDT node.  The action   code is set to DELEGATION-HOLE; this indicates that the XEID is not a   LISP destination.   If the requested XEID did not match either a configured delegation,   an authoritative XEID-prefix, or a hint, then a Negative Map-Referral   with action code NOT-AUTHORITATIVE MUST be returned.7.2.  DDT Map-Server   When a DDT Map-Server receives a DDT Map-Request, its operation is   similar to that of a DDT node, with additional processing as follows:   o  If the requested XEID matches a registered XEID-prefix, then the      Map-Request is forwarded to one of the destination ETR RLOCs (or      the Map-Server sends a Map-Reply, if it is providing a proxy      Map-Reply service), and a Map-Referral with action code MS-ACK      MUST be returned to the sender of the DDT Map-Request.   o  If the requested XEID matches a configured XEID-prefix for which      no ETR registration has been received, then a Negative      Map-Referral with action code MS-NOT-REGISTERED MUST be returned      to the sender of the DDT Map-Request.7.3.  DDT Client   A DDT client queries one or more DDT nodes and uses an iterative   process of following returned referrals until it receives one with   action code MS-ACK (or an error indication).  MS-ACK indicates that   the Map-Request has been sent to a Map-Server that will forward it to   an ETR that, in turn, will provide a Map-Reply to the locator address   in the Map-Request.   DDT client functionality will typically be implemented by DDT   Map-Resolvers.  Just as would any other Map-Resolver, a DDT   Map-Resolver accepts Map-Requests from its clients (typically ITRs)   and ensures that those Map-Requests are forwarded to the correct ETR,   which generates Map-Replies.  However, unlike a Map-Resolver thatFuller, et al.                Experimental                     [Page 18]

RFC 8111                        LISP-DDT                        May 2017   uses the LISP Alternative Logical Topology (LISP+ALT) mapping system   [RFC6836], a DDT Map-Resolver implements DDT client functionality to   find the correct ETR to answer a Map-Request; this requires a DDT   Map-Resolver to maintain additional state: a Map-Referral cache and a   pending request list of XEIDs that are going through the iterative   referral process.   DDT client functionality may be implemented on ITRs.  In this case,   the DDT client will not receive a Map-Request from another network   element; instead, equivalent information will be provided to the DDT   client via a programming interface.7.3.1.  Queuing and Sending DDT Map-Requests   When a DDT client receives a request to resolve an XEID (in the case   of a DDT Map-Resolver, this will be in the form of a received   Encapsulated Map-Request), it first performs a longest-match search   for the XEID in its referral cache.  If no match is found or if a   negative cache entry is found, then the destination is not in the   database; a Negative Map-Reply MUST be returned, and no further   processing is performed by the DDT client.   If a match is found, the DDT client creates a pending request list   entry for the XEID and saves the original request (in the case of a   DDT Map-Resolver, this will be the original Map-Request minus the   encapsulation header) along with other information needed to track   progress through the iterative referral process; the "referral   XEID-prefix" is also initialized to indicate that no referral has yet   been received.  The DDT client then creates a DDT Map-Request (which   is an Encapsulated Map-Request with the "DDT-originated" flag set in   the message header) for the XEID but without any authentication data   that may have been included in the original request.  It sends the   DDT Map-Request to one of the RLOCs in the chosen referral cache   entry.  The referral cache is initially populated with one or more   statically configured entries; additional entries are added when   referrals are followed, as described below.  A DDT client is not   absolutely required to cache referrals, but doing so will decrease   latency and reduce lookup delays.   Note that in normal use on the public Internet, the statically   configured initial referral cache for a DDT client should include a   "default" entry with RLOCs for either the root DDT node or one or   more DDT nodes that contain hints for the root DDT node.  If a DDT   client does not have such a configuration, it will return a Negative   Map-Reply if it receives a query for an EID outside the subset of the   mapping database known to it.  While this may be desirable on private   network deployments or during early transition to LISP when few sites   are using it, this behavior is not appropriate when LISP is inFuller, et al.

If DDT message exchanges are   authenticated as described inSection 10, then the DDT client MUST   also be configured with public keys of DDT nodes pointed to by the   "default" cache entry.  In this case, the "default" entry will   typically be for the root DDT node.7.3.2.  Receiving and Following Referrals   After sending a DDT Map-Request, a DDT client expects to receive a   Map-Referral response.  If none occurs within the timeout period, the   DDT client retransmits the request, sending it to the next RLOC in   the referral cache entry if one is available.  If all RLOCs have been   tried and the maximum number of retransmissions has occurred for   each, then the pending request list entry is dequeued and discarded.   In this case, the DDT client returns no response to the sender of the   original request.   A DDT client processes a received Map-Referral message according to   each action code:   NODE-REFERRAL:  The DDT client checks for a possible referral loop as      described inSection 7.3.4.  If no loop is found, the DDT client      saves the prefix returned in the Map-Referral message in the      referral cache, updates the saved prefix and saved RLOCs in the      pending request list entry, and follows the referral by sending a      new DDT Map-Request to one of the DDT node RLOCs listed in the      Referral Set; security information saved with the original      Map-Request SHOULD NOT be included.   MS-REFERRAL:  The DDT client processes an MS-REFERRAL in the same      manner as a NODE-REFERRAL, except that security information saved      with the original Map-Request MUST be included in the new      Map-Request sent to a Map-Server (seeSection 10 for details on      security).   MS-ACK:  An MS-ACK is returned by a DDT Map-Server to indicate that      it has one or more registered ETRs that can answer a Map-Request      for the XEID and the request has been forwarded to one of them      (or, if the Map-Server is providing a proxy service for the      prefix, then a reply has been sent to the querying ITR).  If the      pending request did not include saved LISP-SEC information or if      that information was already included in the previous DDT      Map-Request (sent by the DDT client in response to either an      MS-REFERRAL or a previous MS-ACK referral), then the pending      request for the XEID is complete; processing of the request stops,      and all request state can be discarded.  Otherwise, LISP-SEC      information is required and has not yet been sent to the      authoritative DDT Map-Server; the DDT client MUST resend the DDTFuller, et al.

If the "Incomplete" flag is not set, the      prefix is saved in the referral cache.   MS-NOT-REGISTERED:  The DDT Map-Server queried could not process the      request because it did not have any ETRs registered for a      matching, authoritative XEID-prefix.  If the DDT client has not      yet tried all of the RLOCs saved with the pending request, then it      sends a Map-Request to the next RLOC in that list.  If all RLOCs      have been tried, then the destination XEID is not registered and      is unreachable.  The DDT client MUST return a Negative Map-Reply      to the requester (or, in the case of a DDT Map-Resolver, to the      sender of the original Map-Request).  This Map-Reply contains the      least-specific XEID-prefix in the range for which this DDT      Map-Server is authoritative and in which no registrations exist.      The TTL value of the Negative Map-Reply SHOULD be set to 1 minute.      A negative referral cache entry is created for the prefix (whose      TTL also SHOULD be set to 1 minute), and processing of the request      stops.   DELEGATION-HOLE:  The DDT Map-Server queried did not have an      XEID-prefix defined that matched the requested XEID, so the XEID      does not exist in the mapping database.  The DDT client MUST      return a Negative Map-Reply to the requester (or, in the case of a      DDT Map-Resolver, to the sender of the original Map-Request); this      Map-Reply SHOULD indicate the least-specific XEID-prefix matching      the requested XEID for which no delegations exist and SHOULD have      a TTL value of 15 minutes.  A negative referral cache entry is      created for the prefix (which also SHOULD have a TTL of      15 minutes), and processing of the pending request stops.   NOT-AUTHORITATIVE:  The DDT Map-Server queried is not authoritative      for the requested XEID.  This can occur if a cached referral has      become invalid due to a change in the database hierarchy.  If the      DDT client receiving this message can determine that it is using      old cached information, it MAY choose to delete that cached      information and retry the original Map-Request, starting from its      "root" cache entry.  If this action code is received in response      to a query that did not use cached referral information, then it      indicates a database synchronization problem or configuration      error.  The pending request is silently discarded; i.e., all state      for the request that caused this answer is removed, and no answer      is returned to the original requester.Fuller, et al.

Handling Referral Errors   Other states are possible, such as a misconfigured DDT node (acting   as a proxy Map-Server, for example) returning a Map-Reply to the DDT   client; they should be considered errors and logged as such.  It is   not clear exactly what else the DDT client should do in such cases;   one possibility is to remove the pending request list entry and send   a Negative Map-Reply to the requester (or, in the case of a DDT   Map-Resolver, to the sender of the original Map-Request).   Alternatively, if a DDT client detects unexpected behavior by a DDT   node, it could mark that node as unusable in its referral cache and   update the pending request to try a different DDT node if more than   one is listed in the referral cache.  In any case, any prefix   contained in a Map-Referral message that causes a referral error   (including a referral loop) is not saved in the DDT client referral   cache.7.3.4.  Referral Loop Detection   In response to a Map-Referral message with action code NODE-REFERRAL   or MS-REFERRAL, a DDT client is directed to query a new set of DDT   node RLOCs that are expected to have more-specific XEID-prefix   information for the requested XEID.  To prevent a possible "iteration   loop" (following referrals back and forth among a set of DDT nodes   without ever finding an answer), a DDT client saves the last received   referral XEID-prefix for each pending request and checks to see if a   newly received NODE-REFERRAL or MS-REFERRAL message contains a   more-specific referral XEID-prefix; an exact or less-specific match   of the saved XEID-prefix indicates a referral loop.  If a loop is   detected, the DDT Map-Resolver handles the request as described inSection 7.3.3.  Otherwise, the DDT client saves the most recently   received referral XEID-prefix with the pending request when it   follows the referral.   As an extra measure to prevent referral loops, it is probably also   wise to limit the total number of referrals for any request to some   reasonable number; the exact value of that number will be determined   during experimental deployment of LISP-DDT but is bounded by the   maximum length of the XEID.   Note that when a DDT client adds an entry to its lookup queue and   sends an initial Map-Request for an XEID, the queue entry has no   previous referral XEID-prefix; this means that the first DDT node   contacted by a DDT Map-Resolver may provide a referral to anywhere in   the DDT hierarchy.  This, in turn, allows a DDT client to use   essentially any DDT node RLOCs for its initial cache entries andFuller, et al.                Experimental                     [Page 22]

Example Topology and Request/Referral Following   This section shows an example DDT tree and several possible scenarios   of Map-Requests coming to a Map-Resolver and subsequent iterative DDT   referrals.  In this example, RLOCs of DDT nodes are shown in the IPv4   address space while the EIDs are in the IPv6 AF.  The same principle   of hierarchical delegation and pinpointing referrals is equally   applicable to any AF whose address hierarchy can be expressed as a   bit string with associated length.  The DDT "tree" of IPv4 prefixes   is another AF with immediate practical value.  This section could   benefit from additional examples, perhaps including one using IPv4   EIDs and another using IPv6 RLOCs.  If this document is moved to the   Standards Track, consideration should be given to adding such   examples.Fuller, et al.                Experimental                     [Page 31]

The DDT nodes for 2001:db8::/32 delegate 2001:db8:0100::/40 to a DDT   Map-Server with RLOC 192.0.2.101.   The DDT Map-Server for 2001:db8:0100::/40 is configured to allow ETRs   to register the sub-prefixes 2001:db8:0103::/48 and   2001:db8:0104::/48.   The DDT nodes for 2001:db8::/32 also delegate 2001:db8:0500::/40 to a   DDT node with RLOC 192.0.2.201.   The DDT node for 2001:db8:0500::/40 is further configured to delegate   2001:db8:0500::/48 to a DDT Map-Server with RLOC 192.0.2.211 and   2001:db8:0501::/48 to a DDT Map-Server with RLOC 192.0.2.221.   The DDT Map-Server for 2001:db8:0500::/48 is configured to allow ETRs   to register the sub-prefixes 2001:db8:0500:1::/64 and   2001:db8:0500:2::/64.   The DDT Map-Server for 2001:db8:0501::/48 is configured to allow ETRs   to register the sub-prefixes 2001:db8:0501:8::/64 and   2001:db8:0501:9::/64.9.1.  Lookup of 2001:db8:0103:1::1/128   The first example shows a DDT Map-Resolver following a delegation   from the root to a DDT node followed by another delegation to a DDT   Map-Server.   ITR1 sends an Encapsulated Map-Request for 2001:db8:0103:1::1 to one   of its configured (DDT) Map-Resolvers.  The DDT Map-Resolver proceeds   as follows:   1.  Send a DDT Map-Request (for 2001:db8:0103:1::1) to one of the       root DDT nodes (192.0.2.1 or 192.0.2.2).   2.

The site1 ETR for 2001:db8:0103::/48 receives the Map-Request       forwarded by the DDT Map-Server and sends a Map-Reply to ITR1.9.2.  Lookup of 2001:db8:0501:8:4::1/128   The next example shows a three-level delegation: root to first DDT   node, first DDT node to second DDT node, and second DDT node to DDT   Map-Server.   ITR2 sends an Encapsulated Map-Request for 2001:db8:0501:8:4::1 to   one of its configured (DDT) Map-Resolvers, which are different from   those for ITR1.  The DDT Map-Resolver proceeds as follows:   1.   Send a DDT Map-Request (for 2001:db8:0501:8:4::1) to one of the        root DDT nodes (192.0.2.1 or 192.0.2.2).   2.

Send a DDT Map-Request to 192.0.2.11 or 192.0.2.12.   4.   Receive (and save in the referral cache) the Map-Referral for        EID-prefix 2001:db8:0500::/40, action code NODE-REFERRAL, RLOC        set (192.0.2.201).   5.

Lookup of 2001:db8:0104:2::2/128   This example shows how a DDT Map-Resolver uses a saved referral cache   entry to skip the referral process and go directly to a DDT   Map-Server for a prefix that is similar to one previously requested.   In this case, ITR1 uses the same Map-Resolver used in the example inSection 9.1.  It sends an Encapsulated Map-Request for   2001:db8:0104:2::2 to that (DDT) Map-Resolver.  The DDT Map-Resolver   finds an MS-REFERRAL cache entry for 2001:db8:0100::/40 with RLOC set   (192.0.2.101) and proceeds as follows:   1.  Send a DDT Map-Request (for 2001:db8:0104:2::2) to 192.0.2.101;       if the ITR-originated Encapsulated Map-Request had a LISP-SEC       signature, it is included.   2.

Lookup of 2001:db8:0500:2:4::1/128   This example shows how a DDT Map-Resolver uses a saved referral cache   entry to start the referral process at a non-root, intermediate DDT   node for a prefix that is similar to one previously requested.   In this case, ITR2 uses the same Map-Resolver used in the example inSection 9.2.

RFC 8111                        LISP-DDT                        May 20179.5.  Lookup of 2001:db8:0500::1/128 (Nonexistent EID)   This example uses the cached MS-REFERRAL for 2001:db8:0500::/48   learned above to start the lookup process at the DDT Map-Server at   192.0.2.211.  The DDT Map-Resolver proceeds as follows:   1.  Send a DDT Map-Request (for 2001:db8:0500::1) to 192.0.2.211; if       the ITR-originated Encapsulated Map-Request had a LISP-SEC       signature, it is included.   2.  The DDT Map-Server at 192.0.2.211, which is authoritative for       2001:db8:0500::/48, does not have a matching delegation for       2001:db8:0500::1.  It responds with a Map-Referral message for       2001:db8:0500::/64, action code DELEGATION-HOLE, to the DDT       Map-Resolver.  The prefix 2001:db8:0500::/64 is used because it       is the least-specific prefix that does match the requested EID       but does not match one of the configured delegations       (2001:db8:0500:1::/64 and 2001:db8:0500:2::/64).   3.  The DDT Map-Resolver receives the delegation, adds a negative       referral cache entry for 2001:db8:0500::/64, dequeues the pending       request for 2001:db8:0500::1, and returns a Negative Map-Reply       to ITR2.10.  Securing the Database and Message Exchanges   This section specifies the DDT security architecture that provides   data origin authentication, data integrity protection, and   XEID-prefix delegation.  Global XEID-prefix authorization is out of   scope for this document.   Each DDT node is configured with one or more public/private key pairs   that are used to digitally sign Map-Referral Records for   XEID-prefix(es) for which the DDT node is authoritative.  In other   words, each public/private key pair is associated with the   combination of a DDT node and an XEID-prefix for which it is   authoritative.  Every DDT node is also configured with the public   keys of its child DDT nodes.  By including the public keys of target   child DDT nodes in the Map-Referral Records and signing each Record   with the DDT node's private key, a DDT node can securely delegate   sub-prefixes of its authoritative XEID-prefixes to its child DDT   nodes.  A DDT node configured to provide hints must also have the   public keys of the DDT nodes to which its hints point.  DDT node keys   can be encoded using LCAF Type 11 to associate the key to the RLOC of   the referred DDT node.  If a node has more than one public key, it   should sign its Records with at least one of these keys.  When a node   has N keys, it can sustain up to N-1 key compromises.  The revocation   mechanism is described inSection 10.2.1.Fuller, et al.                Experimental                     [Page 37]

RFC 8111                        LISP-DDT                        May 2017   Map-Resolvers are configured with one or more trusted public keys,   referred to as "trust anchors".  Trust anchors are used to   authenticate the DDT security infrastructure.  Map-Resolvers can   discover a DDT node's public key by either (1) having it configured   as a trust anchor or (2) obtaining it from the node's parent as part   of a signed Map-Referral.  When a public key is obtained from a   node's parent, it is considered trusted if it is signed by a trust   anchor or if it is signed by a key that was previously trusted.   Typically, in a Map-Resolver, the root DDT node's public keys should   be configured as trust anchors.  Once a Map-Resolver authenticates a   public key, it locally caches the key along with the associated DDT   node RLOC and XEID-prefix for future use.10.1.  XEID-Prefix Delegation   In order to delegate XEID sub-prefixes to its child DDT nodes, a   parent DDT node signs its Map-Referrals.  Every signed Map-Referral   MUST also include the public keys associated with each child DDT   node.  Such a signature indicates that the parent DDT node is   delegating the specified XEID-prefix to a given child DDT node.  The   signature is also authenticating the public keys associated with the   child DDT nodes, and authorizing them to be used by the child DDT   nodes, to provide origin authentication and integrity protection for   further delegations and mapping information of the XEID-prefix   allocated to the DDT node.   As a result, for a given XEID-prefix, a Map-Resolver can form an   authentication chain from a configured trust anchor (typically the   root DDT node) to the leaf nodes (Map-Servers).  Map-Resolvers   leverage this authentication chain to verify the Map-Referral   signatures while walking the DDT tree until they reach a Map-Server   authoritative for the given XEID-prefix.10.2.  DDT Node Operation   Upon receiving a Map-Request, the DDT node responds with a   Map-Referral as specified inSection 7.  For every Record present in   the Map-Referral, the DDT node also includes the public keys   associated with the Record's XEID-prefix and the RLOCs of the child   DDT nodes.  Each Record contained in the Map-Referral is signed using   the DDT node's private key.10.2.1.  DDT Public Key Revocation   The node that owns a public key can also revoke that public key.  For   instance, if a parent DDT node advertises a public key for one of its   child DDT nodes, the child DDT node can at a later time revoke that   key.  Since DDT nodes do not keep track of the Map-Resolvers thatFuller, et al.                Experimental                     [Page 38]

RFC 8111                        LISP-DDT                        May 2017   query them, revocation is done in a pull model, where the   Map-Resolver is informed of the revocation of a key only when it   queries the node that owns that key.  If the parent DDT node is   configured to advertise that key, the parent DDT node must also be   signaled to remove the key from the Records it advertises for the   child DDT node; this is necessary to avoid further distribution of   the revoked key.   To securely revoke a key, the DDT node creates a new Record for the   associated XEID-prefix and locator, including the revoked key with   the R bit set.  (SeeSection 4.7 of [RFC8060] for details regarding   the R bit.)  The DDT node must also include a signature in the Record   that covers this Record; this is computed using the private key   corresponding to the key being revoked.  Such a Record is termed a   "revocation record".  By including this Record in its Map-Referrals,   the DDT node informs querying Map-Resolvers about the revoked key.  A   digital signature computed with a revoked key can only be used to   authenticate the revocation and SHOULD NOT be used to validate any   data.  To prevent a compromised key from revoking other valid keys, a   given key can only be used to sign a revocation for that specific   key; it cannot be used to revoke other keys.  This prevents the use   of a compromised key to revoke other valid keys as described in   [RFC5011].  A revocation record MUST be advertised for a period of   time equal to or greater than the TTL value of the Record that   initially advertised the key, starting from the time that the   advertisement of the key was stopped by removal from the parent   DDT node.10.3.  Map-Server Operation   Similar to a DDT node, a Map-Server is configured with one or more   public/private key pairs that it must use to sign Map-Referrals.   However, unlike DDT nodes, Map-Servers do not delegate prefixes and   as a result do not need to include keys in the Map-Referrals they   generate.10.4.  Map-Resolver Operation   Upon receiving a Map-Referral, the Map-Resolver MUST first verify the   signature(s) by using either a trust anchor or a previously   authenticated public key associated with the DDT node sending the   Map-Referral.  If multiple authenticated keys are associated with the   DDT node sending this Map-Referral, the Key Tag field (Section 6.4.1)   of the signature can be used to select the correct public key for   verifying the signature.  If the key tag matches more than one key   associated with that DDT node, the Map-Resolver MUST try to verify   the signature with all matching keys.  For every matching key that isFuller, et al.                Experimental                     [Page 39]

RFC 8111                        LISP-DDT                        May 2017   found, the Map-Resolver MUST also verify that the key is   authoritative for the XEID-prefix in the Map-Referral Record.  If   such a key is found, the Map-Resolver MUST use it to verify the   associated signature in the Record.  If (1) no matching key is found,   (2) none of the matching keys is authoritative for the XEID-prefix in   the Map-Referral Record, or (3) such a key is found but the signature   is not valid, the Map-Referral Record is considered corrupted and   MUST be discarded.  This may be due to expired keys.  The   Map-Resolver MAY try other siblings of this node if there is an   alternate node that is authoritative for the same prefix.  If not,   the Map-Resolver CAN query the DDT node's parent to retrieve a valid   key.  It is good practice to use a counter or timer to avoid   repeating this process if the Map-Resolver cannot verify the   signature after several attempts.   Once the signature is verified, the Map-Resolver has verified the   XEID-prefix delegation in the Map-Referral.  This also means that   public keys of the child DDT nodes were authenticated; the   Map-Resolver must add these keys to the authenticated keys associated   with each child DDT node and XEID-prefix.  These keys are considered   valid for the duration specified in the Record's TTL field.11.  Open Issues and Considerations   There are a number of issues with the organization of the mapping   database that need further investigation.  Among these are:   o  Defining an interface to implement interconnection and/or      interoperability with other mapping databases, such as LISP+ALT.   o  Additional key structures for use with LISP-DDT, such as key      structures to support additional EID formats as defined in      [RFC8060].   o  Management of the DDT Map-Resolver referral cache -- in      particular, detecting and removing outdated entries.   o  Best practices for either configuring hint referrals or avoiding      their use.   Operational experience will help answer open questions surrounding   these and other issues.Fuller, et al.                Experimental                     [Page 40]

IANA Considerations   IANA has made the following early assignment per this document:   o  Message type 6, "LISP DDT Map-Referral", was added to the      "LISP Packet Types" registry.  SeeSection 6.4 ("Map-Referral      Message Format").   As this document is an Experimental RFC, this is an early allocation   as per [RFC7120].13.  Security ConsiderationsSection 10 describes a DDT security architecture that provides data   origin authentication, data integrity protection, and XEID-prefix   delegation within the DDT infrastructure.   Global XEID-prefix authorization is beyond the scope of this   document, but the Secure Inter-Domain Routing (SIDR) working group   [RFC6480] is developing an infrastructure to support improved   security of Internet routing.  Further work is required to determine   if SIDR's Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) and the distributed   repository system it uses for storing and disseminating PKI data   objects may also be used by DDT devices to verifiably assert that   they are the legitimate holders of a set of XEID-prefixes.   This document specifies how DDT security and LISP-SEC [LISP-SEC]   complement one another to secure the DDT infrastructure, Map-Referral   messages, and the Map-Request/Map-Reply protocols.  In the future,   other LISP security mechanisms may be developed to replace LISP-SEC.   Such future security mechanisms should describe how they can be used   together with LISP-DDT to provide similar levels of protection.   LISP-SEC can use the DDT public-key infrastructure to secure the   transport of LISP-SEC key material (the One-Time Key) from a   Map-Resolver to the corresponding Map-Server.  For this reason, when   LISP-SEC is deployed in conjunction with a LISP-DDT mapping database   and the path between the Map-Resolver and Map-Server needs to be   protected, DDT security as described inSection 10 should be enabled   as well.Fuller, et al.
