Introduction This document specifies a Type-Length-Value (TLV) packet format and the TLV type and value encodings for CCNx messages. A full description of the CCNx network protocol, providing an encoding-free description of CCNx messages and message elements, may be found in [RFC8569]. CCNx is a network protocol that uses a hierarchical name to forward requests and to match responses to requests. It does not use endpoint addresses; the Internet Protocol does. Restrictions in a request can limit the response by the public key of the response's signer or the cryptographic hash of the response. Every CCNx forwarder along the path does the name matching and restriction checking. The CCNx protocol fits within the broader framework of Information-Centric Networking (ICN) protocols [RFC7927]. This document describes a TLV scheme using a fixed 2-byte T and a fixed 2-byte L field. The rational for this choice is described inSection 5. Briefly, this choice avoids multiple encodings of the same value (aliases) and reduces the work of a validator to ensure compliance. Unlike some uses of TLV in networking, each network hop must evaluate the encoding, so even small validation latencies at each hop could add up to a large overall forwarding delay. For very small packets or low-throughput links, where the extra bytes may become a concern, one may use a TLV compression protocol, for example, [compress] and [CCNxz]. This document uses the terms CCNx Packet, CCNx Message, and CCNx Message TLV. A CCNx Packet refers to the entire Layer 3 datagram as specified inSection 3.1. A CCNx Message is the ABNF token defined in the CCNx Semantics document [RFC8569]. A CCNx Message TLV refers to the encoding of a CCNx Message as specified inSection 3.6.Mosko, et al. Experimental [Page 3]
RFC 8609 CCNx TLV July 2019 This document specifies: o the CCNx Packet format, o the CCNx Message TLV format, o the TLV types used by CCNx messages, o the encoding of values for each type, o top-level types that exist at the outermost containment, o Interest TLVs that exist within Interest containment, and o Content Object TLVs that exist within Content Object containment. This document is supplemented by these documents: o [RFC8569], which covers message semantics and the protocol operation regarding Interest and Content Object, including the Interest Return protocol. o [CCNxURI], which covers the CCNx URI notation. The type values inSection 4 conform to the IANA-assigned numbers for the CCNx protocol. This document uses the symbolic names defined in that section. All TLV type values are relative to their parent containers. For example, each level of a nested TLV structure might define a "type = 1" with a completely different meaning. Packets are represented as 32-bit wide words using ASCII art. Due to the nested levels of TLV encoding and the presence of optional fields and variable sizes, there is no concise way to represent all possibilities. We use the convention that ASCII art fields enclosed by vertical bars "|" represent exact bit widths. Fields with a forward slash "/" are variable bit widths, which we typically pad out to word alignment for picture readability. The document represents the consensus of the ICN RG. It is the first ICN protocol from the RG, created from the early CCNx protocol [nnc] with significant revision and input from the ICN community and RG members. The document has received critical reading by several members of the ICN community and the RG. The authors and RG chairs approve of the contents. The document is sponsored under the IRTF and is not issued by the IETF and is not an IETF standard. This is an experimental protocol and may not be suitable for any specific application and the specification may change in the future.Mosko, et al. Experimental [Page 4]
RFC 8609 CCNx TLV July 20191.1. 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.2. Definitions These definitions summarize items defined in [RFC8569]. This document defines their encodings. o Name: A hierarchically structured variable-length identifier. It is an ordered list of path segments, which are variable-length octet strings. In human-readable form, it is represented in URI format as "ccnx:/path/part". There is no host or query string. See [CCNxURI] for complete details. o Interest: A message requesting a Content Object with a matching Name and other optional selectors to choose from multiple objects with the same Name. Any Content Object with a Name and attributes that matches the Name and optional selectors of the Interest is said to satisfy the Interest. o Content Object: A data object sent in response to an Interest request. It has an optional Name and a content payload that are bound together via cryptographic means.3. Type-Length-Value (TLV) Packets We use 16-bit Type and 16-bit Length fields to encode TLV-based packets. This provides 65,536 different possible types and value field lengths of up to 64 KiB. With 65,536 possible types at each level of TLV encoding, there should be sufficient space for basic protocol types, while also allowing ample room for experimentation, application use, vendor extensions, and growth. This encoding does not allow for jumbo packets beyond 64 KiB total length. If used on a media that allows for jumbo frames, we suggest defining a media adaptation envelope that allows for multiple smaller frames.Mosko, et al. Experimental [Page 5]
RFC 8609 CCNx TLV July 2019 +--------+------------------+---------------------------------------+ | Abbrev | Name | Description | +--------+------------------+---------------------------------------+ | T_ORG | Vendor Specific | Information specific to a vendor | | | Information | implementation (Section 3.3.2). | | | | | | T_PAD | Padding | Adds padding to a field (Section | | | | 3.3.1). | | | | | | n/a | Experimental | Experimental use. | +--------+------------------+---------------------------------------+ Table 1: Reserved TLV Types There are several global TLV definitions that we reserve at all hierarchical contexts. The TLV types in the range 0x1000 - 0x1FFF are Reserved for Experimental Use. The TLV type T_ORG is also Reserved for Vendor Extensions (seeSection 3.3.2). The TLV type T_PAD is used to optionally pad a field out to some desired alignment. 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 +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | Type | Length | +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ Figure 1: Type and Length encoding The Length field contains the length of the Value field in octets. It does not include the length of the Type and Length fields. The Length MAY be zero. TLV structures are nestable, allowing the Value field of one TLV structure to contain additional TLV structures. The enclosing TLV structure is called the container of the enclosed TLV. Type values are context dependent. Within a TLV container, one may reuse previous type values for new context-dependent purposes.Mosko, et al. Experimental [Page 6]
RFC 8609 CCNx TLV July 20193.1. Overall Packet Format Each CCNx Packet includes the 8-byte fixed header, described below, followed by a set of TLV fields. These fields are optional hop-by- hop headers and the Packet Payload. 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 +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | Version | PacketType | PacketLength | +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | PacketType-specific fields | HeaderLength | +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ / Optional hop-by-hop header TLVs / +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ / PacketPayload TLVs / +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ Figure 2: Overall Packet Format The PacketPayload of a CCNx Packet is the protocol message itself. The Content Object Hash is computed over the PacketPayload only, excluding the fixed and hop-by-hop headers, as those might change from hop to hop. Signed information or similarity hashes should not include any of the fixed or hop-by-hop headers. The PacketPayload should be self-sufficient in the event that the fixed and hop-by-hop headers are removed. See Message Hash (Section 3.4.3). Following the CCNx Message TLV, the PacketPayload may include optional Validation TLVs. 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 +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | CCNx Message TLV / +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ / Optional CCNx ValidationAlgorithm TLV / +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ / Optional CCNx ValidationPayload TLV (ValidationAlg required) / +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ Figure 3: PacketPayload TLVs After discarding the fixed and hop-by-hop headers, the remaining PacketPayload should be a valid protocol message. Therefore, the PacketPayload always begins with 4 bytes of type-length that specifies the protocol message (whether it is an Interest, Content Object, or other message type) and its total length. The embeddingMosko, et al. Experimental [Page 7]
RFC 8609 CCNx TLV July 2019 of a self-sufficient protocol data unit inside the fixed and hop-by- hop headers allows a network stack to discard the headers and operate only on the embedded message. It also decouples the PacketType field -- which specifies how to forward the packet -- from the PacketPayload. The range of bytes protected by the Validation includes the CCNx Message TLV and the ValidationAlgorithm TLV. The ContentObjectHash begins with the CCNx Message TLV and ends at the tail of the CCNx Packet.3.2. Fixed Headers In Figure 2, the fixed header fields are: o Version: defines the version of the packet, which MUST be 1. o HeaderLength: The length of the fixed header (8 bytes) and hop-by- hop headers. The minimum value MUST be 8. o PacketType: describes forwarder actions to take on the packet. o PacketLength: Total octets of packet including all headers (fixed header plus hop-by-hop headers) and protocol message. o PacketType-specific Fields: specific PacketTypes define the use of these bits. The PacketType field indicates how the forwarder should process the packet. A Request Packet (Interest) has PacketType PT_INTEREST, a Response (Content Object) has PacketType PT_CONTENT, and an Interest Return has PacketType PT_RETURN. HeaderLength is the number of octets from the start of the CCNx Packet (Version) to the end of the hop-by-hop headers. PacketLength is the number of octets from the start of the packet to the end of the packet. Both lengths have a minimum value of 8 (the fixed header itself). The PacketType-specific fields are reserved bits whose use depends on the PacketType. They are used for network-level signaling.Mosko, et al. Experimental [Page 8]
RFC 8609 CCNx TLV July 20193.2.1. Interest Fixed Header If the PacketType is PT_INTEREST, it indicates that the packet should be forwarded following the Interest pipeline inSection 2.4.4 of [RFC8569]. For this type of packet, the Fixed Header includes a field for a HopLimit as well as Reserved and Flags fields. The Reserved field MUST be set to 0 in an Interest. There are currently no flags defined, so the Flags field MUST be set to 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 +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | Version | PT_INTEREST | PacketLength | +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | HopLimit | Reserved | Flags | HeaderLength | +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ Figure 4: Interest Header3.2.1.1. Interest HopLimit For an Interest message, the HopLimit is a counter that is decremented with each hop. It limits the distance an Interest may travel on the network. The node originating the Interest MAY put in any value up to the maximum of 255. Each node that receives an Interest with a HopLimit decrements the value upon reception. If the value is 0 after the decrement, the Interest MUST NOT be forwarded off the node. It is an error to receive an Interest from a remote node with the HopLimit field set to 0.3.2.2. Content Object Fixed Header If the PacketType is PT_CONTENT, it indicates that the packet should be forwarded following the Content Object pipeline inSection 2.4.4 of [RFC8569]. A Content Object defines a Flags field; however, there are currently no flags defined, so the Flags field must be set to 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 +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | Version | PT_CONTENT | PacketLength | +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | Reserved | Flags | HeaderLength | +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ Figure 5: Content Object HeaderMosko, et al. Experimental [Page 9]
RFC 8609 CCNx TLV July 20193.2.3. Interest Return Fixed Header If the PacketType is PT_RETURN, it indicates that the packet should be processed following the Interest Return rules inSection 10 of [RFC8569]. The only difference between this Interest Return message and the original Interest is that the PacketType is changed to PT_RETURN and a ReturnCode is put into the ReturnCode field. All other fields are unchanged from the Interest packet. The purpose of this encoding is to prevent packet length changes so no additional bytes are needed to return an Interest to the previous hop. 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 +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | Version | PT_RETURN | PacketLength | +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | HopLimit | ReturnCode | Flags | HeaderLength | +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ Figure 6: Interest Return Header3.2.3.1. Interest Return HopLimit This is the original Interest's HopLimit, as received before decrement at the node sending the Interest Return.3.2.3.2. Interest Return Flags These are the original Flags as set in the Interest.3.2.3.3. Return Code This section maps the Return Code name [RFC8569] to the TLV symbolic name.Section 4.2 maps the symbolic names to numeric values. This field is set by the node creating the Interest Return. A return code of "0" MUST NOT be used, as it indicates that the returning system did not modify the Return Code field.Mosko, et al. Experimental [Page 10]

Global Formats This section defines global formats that may be nested within other TLVs.3.3.1. Pad The pad type may be used by sources that prefer word-aligned data. Padding 4-byte words, for example, would use a 1-byte, 2-byte, and 3-byte Length. Padding 8-byte words would use a (0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7)-byte Length. One MUST NOT pad inside a Name. Apart from that, a pad MAY be inserted after any other TLV in the CCNx Message TLV or in the ValidationAlgorithm TLV. In the remainder of this document, we will not show optional Pad TLVs.Mosko, et al. Experimental [Page 11]

Organization-Specific TLVs Organization-specific TLVs (also known as Vendor TLVs) MUST use the T_ORG type. The Length field is the length of the organization- specific information plus 3. The Value begins with the 3 byte organization number derived from the network byte order encoding of the IANA "Private Enterprise Numbers" registry [IANA-PEN], followed by the organization-specific information. A T_ORG MAY be used as a path segment in a Name. It is treated like any other path segment. 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 +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | T_ORG | Length (3+value length) | +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | PEN[0] | PEN[1] | PEN[2] | / +---------------+---------------+---------------+ + / Vendor Specific Value / +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ Figure 8: Organization-Specific TLVs3.3.3. Hash Format Hash values are used in several fields throughout a packet. This TLV encoding is commonly embedded inside those fields to specify the specific hash function used and its value. Note that the reserved TLV types are also reserved here for user-defined experimental functions. The LENGTH field of the hash value MUST be less than or equal to the hash function length. If the LENGTH is less than the full length, it is taken as the left LENGTH bytes of the hash function output. Only specified truncations are allowed, not arbitrary truncations.Mosko, et al. Experimental [Page 12]
RFC 8609 CCNx TLV July 2019 This nested format is used because it allows binary comparison of hash values for certain fields without a router needing to understand a new hash function. For example, the KeyIdRestriction is bit-wise compared between an Interest's KeyIdRestriction field and a ContentObject's KeyId field. This format means the outer field values do not change with differing hash functions so a router can still identify those fields and do a binary comparison of the hash TLV without need to understand the specific hash used. An alternative approach, such as using T_KEYID_SHA512-256, would require each router keeps an up-to-date parser and supporting user-defined hash functions here would explode the parsing state-space. A CCNx entity MUST support the hash type T_SHA-256. An entity MAY support the remaining hash types. +-----------+------------------------+ | Abbrev | Lengths (octets) | +-----------+------------------------+ | T_SHA-256 | 32 | | | | | T_SHA-512 | 64, 32 | | | | | n/a | Experimental TLV types | +-----------+------------------------+ Table 3: CCNx Hash Functions 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 +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | T_FOO | 36 | +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | T_SHA512 | 32 | +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ / 32-byte hash value / +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ Figure 9: Example nesting inside type T_FOO3.3.4. Link A Link is the tuple: {Name, [KeyIdRestr], [ContentObjectHashRestr]}. It is a general encoding that is used in both the payload of a Content Object with PayloadType = "Link" and in a Content Object's KeyLink field. A Link is essentially the body of an Interest.Mosko, et al. Experimental [Page 13]

Hop-by-Hop TLV Headers Hop-by-hop TLV headers are unordered and meaning MUST NOT be attached to their ordering.

Interest Lifetime The Interest Lifetime is the time that an Interest should stay pending at an intermediate node. It is expressed in milliseconds as an unsigned integer in network byte order. A value of 0 (encoded as 1 byte 0x00) indicates the Interest does not elicit a Content Object response. It should still be forwarded, but no reply is expected and a forwarder could skip creating a PIT entry.Mosko, et al. Experimental [Page 14]

Recommended Cache Time The Recommended Cache Time (RCT) is a measure of the useful lifetime of a Content Object as assigned by a content producer or upstream node. It serves as a guideline to the Content Store cache in determining how long to keep the Content Object. It is a recommendation only and may be ignored by the cache. This is in contrast to the ExpiryTime (described inSection 3.6.2.2.2) which takes precedence over the RCT and must be obeyed. Because the Recommended Cache Time is an optional hop-by-hop header and not a part of the signed message, a content producer may re-issue a previously signed Content Object with an updated RCT without needing to re-sign the message. There is little ill effect from an attacker changing the RCT as the RCT serves as a guideline only. The Recommended Cache Time (a millisecond timestamp) is an unsigned integer in network byte order that indicates the time when the payload expires (as the number of milliseconds since the epoch in UTC).

RFC 8609 CCNx TLV July 20193.4.3. Message Hash Within a trusted domain, an operator may calculate the message hash at a border device and insert that value into the hop-by-hop headers of a message. An egress device should remove the value. This permits intermediate devices within that trusted domain to match against a ContentObjectHashRestriction without calculating it at every hop. The message hash is a cryptographic hash from the start of the CCNx Message TLV to the end of the packet. It is used to match against the ContentObjectHashRestriction (Section 3.6.2.1.2). The Message Hash may be of longer length than an Interest's restriction, in which case the device should use the left bytes of the Message Hash to check against the Interest's value. The Message Hash may only carry one hash type and there may only be one Message Hash header. The Message Hash header is unprotected, so this header is only of practical use within a trusted domain, such as an operator's autonomous system. 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 +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | T_MSGHASH | (length + 4) | +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | hash type | length | +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ / hash value / +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ Figure 13: Message Hash HeaderMosko, et al.

RFC 8609 CCNx TLV July 20193.6. CCNx Message TLV This is the format for the CCNx Message itself. The CCNx Message TLV is the portion of the CCNx Packet between the hop-by-hop headers and the Validation TLVs. The figure below is an expansion of the "CCNx Message TLV" depicted in the beginning ofSection 3. The CCNx Message TLV begins with MessageType and runs through the optional Payload. The same general format is used for both Interest and Content Object messages which are differentiated by the MessageType field. The first enclosed TLV of a CCNx Message TLV is always the Name TLV, if present. This is followed by an optional Message TLVs and an optional Payload TLV. 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 +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | MessageType | MessageLength | +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ / Name TLV (Type = T_NAME) / +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ / Optional Message TLVs (Various Types) / +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ / Optional Payload TLV (Type = T_PAYLOAD) / +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ Figure 14: CCNx Message TLV Encoding +-----------+---------------+---------------------------------------+ | Abbrev | Name | Description | +-----------+---------------+---------------------------------------+ | T_NAME | Name (Section | The CCNx Name requested in an | | | 3.6.1) | Interest or published in a Content | | | | Object. | | | | | | T_PAYLOAD | Payload | The message payload. | | | (Section | | | | 3.6.3) | | +-----------+---------------+---------------------------------------+ Table 6: CCNx Message TLV TypesMosko, et al.

RFC 8609 CCNx TLV July 20193.6.1. Name A Name is a TLV encoded sequence of segments. The table below lists the type values appropriate for these name segments. A Name MUST NOT include Pad TLVs. As described in CCNx Semantics [RFC8569], using the CCNx URI [CCNxURI] notation, a T_NAME with zero length corresponds to "ccnx:/" (the default route). The message grammar does not allow the first name segment to have zero length in a CCNx Message TLV Name. In the TLV encoding, "ccnx:/" corresponds to T_NAME with zero length. 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 +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | T_NAME | Length | +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ / Name segment TLVs / +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ Figure 15: Name Encoding +---------------+-------------+-------------------------------------+ | Symbolic Name | Name | Description | +---------------+-------------+-------------------------------------+ | T_NAMESEGMENT | Name | A generic name segment. | | | segment | | | | (Section | | | | 3.6.1.1) | | | | | | | T_IPID | Interest | An identifier that represents the | | | Payload ID | Interest Payload field.

RFC 8609 CCNx TLV July 20193.6.1.1. Name Segments 4096 special application payload name segments are allocated. These have application semantics applied to them. A good convention is to put the application's identity in the name prior to using these name segments. For example, a name like "ccnx:/foo/bar/hi" would be encoded as: 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 +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | (T_NAME) | 0x14 (20) | +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | (T_NAME_SEGMENT) | 0x03 (3) | +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | f o o |(T_NAME_SEGMENT) +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | | 0x03 (3) | b | +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | a r | (T_NAME_SEGMENT) | +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | 0x02 (2) | h | i | +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ Figure 16: Name Encoding Example3.6.1.2. Interest Payload ID The InterestPayloadID is a name segment created by the origin of an Interest to represent the Interest Payload. This allows the proper multiplexing of Interests based on their name if they have different payloads. A common representation is to use a hash of the Interest Payload as the InterestPayloadID. As part of the Value of the TLV, the InterestPayloadID contains a one-octet identifier of the method used to create the InterestPayloadID followed by a variable-length octet string. An implementation is not required to implement any of the methods to receive an Interest; the InterestPayloadID may be treated only as an opaque octet string for the purposes of multiplexing Interests with different payloads. Only a device creating an InterestPayloadID name segment or a device verifying such a segment needs to implement the algorithms. It uses the encoding of hash values specified inSection 3.3.3.Mosko, et al. Experimental [Page 20]
RFC 8609 CCNx TLV July 2019 In normal operations, we recommend displaying the InterestPayloadID as an opaque octet string in a CCNx URI, as this is the common denominator for implementation parsing. The InterestPayloadID, even if it is a hash, should not convey any security context. If a system requires confirmation that a specific entity created the InterestPayload, it should use a cryptographic signature on the Interest via the ValidationAlgorithm and ValidationPayload or use its own methods inside the Interest Payload.3.6.2. Message TLVs Each message type (Interest or Content Object) is associated with a set of optional Message TLVs. Additional specification documents may extend the types associated with each.3.6.2.1. Interest Message TLVs There are two Message TLVs currently associated with an Interest message: the KeyIdRestriction selector and the ContentObjectHashRestr selector are used to narrow the universe of acceptable Content Objects that would satisfy the Interest. 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 +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | MessageType | MessageLength | +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | Name TLV | +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ / Optional KeyIdRestriction TLV / +---------------------------------------------------------------+ / Optional ContentObjectHashRestriction TLV / +---------------------------------------------------------------+ Figure 17: Interest Message TLVsMosko, et al.

This is the hash of the Content Object -- the self-certifying name restriction that must be verified in the network, if an Interest carried this restriction (see Message Hash (Section 3.4.3)). The LENGTH MUST be from one of the allowed values for that hash (seeSection 3.3.3). The ContentObjectHashRestriction SHOULD be of type T_SHA-256 and of length 32 bytes.Mosko, et al.

It is a network byte order unsigned integer in a 64-bit field. A cache or end system should not respond with a Content Object past its ExpiryTime. Routers forwarding a Content Object do not need to check the ExpiryTime. If the ExpiryTime field is missing, the Content Object has no expressed expiration, and a cache or end system may use the Content Object for as long as desired. 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 +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | T_EXPIRY | 8 | +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ / ExpiryTime / / / +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ Figure 21: ExpiryTime encodingMosko, et al.

Validation Both Interests and Content Objects have the option to include information about how to validate the CCNx Message. This information is contained in two TLVs: the ValidationAlgorithm TLV and the ValidationPayload TLV. The ValidationAlgorithm TLV specifies the mechanism to be used to verify the CCNx Message. Examples include verification with a Message Integrity Check (MIC), a Message Authentication Code (MAC), or a cryptographic signature. The ValidationPayload TLV contains the validation output, such as the CRC32C code or the RSA signature. An Interest would most likely only use a MIC type of validation -- a CRC, checksum, or digest.3.6.4.1. Validation Algorithm The ValidationAlgorithm is a set of nested TLVs containing all of the information needed to verify the message. The outermost container has type = T_VALIDATION_ALG. The first nested TLV defines the specific type of validation to be performed on the message. The type is identified with the "ValidationType" as shown in the figure below and elaborated in the table below. Nested within that container are the TLVs for any ValidationType-dependent data -- for example, a Key Id, Key Locator, etc. Complete examples of several types may be found inSection 3.6.4.1.5.Mosko, et al.

RFC 8609 CCNx TLV July 20193.6.4.1.2. Message Authentication Codes MACs are useful for communication between two trusting parties who have already shared secret keys. An example is the HMAC algorithm. A MAC uses the KeyId field to identify which shared secret is in use. The meaning of the KeyId is specific to the two parties involved and could be simply an integer to enumerate keys. If a new MAC requires an additional field, such as an Initialization Vector, that field would need to be defined as part of the updated specification.3.6.4.1.3. Signature Signature type Validators specify a digest mechanism and a signing algorithm to verify the message. Examples include an RSA signature on a SHA256 digest, an Elliptic Curve signature with SECP-256K1 parameters, etc. These Validators require a KeyId and a mechanism for locating the publisher's public key (a KeyLocator) -- and optionally a PublicKey or Certificate or KeyLink.3.6.4.1.4. Validation-Dependent Data Different Validation Algorithms require access to different pieces of data contained in the ValidationAlgorithm TLV. As described above, Key Ids, Key Locators, Public Keys, Certificates, Links, and Key Names all play a role in different Validation Algorithms. Any number of Validation-Dependent Data containers can be present in a Validation Algorithm TLV.Mosko, et al. Experimental [Page 27]

It should be derived from the key used to sign, such as from the SHA-256 hash of the key. It applies to both public and private key systems and to symmetric key systems. The KeyId is represented using the hash format inSection 3.3.3. If an application protocol uses a non-hash identifier, it should use one of the reserved values.Mosko, et al. Experimental [Page 28]

A verifier may use this time to determine whether or not the signature was created during the validity period of a key, or if it occurred in a reasonable sequence with other associated signatures. The SignatureTime is unrelated to any time associated with the actual CCNx Message, which could have been created long before the signature. The default behavior is to always include a SignatureTime when creating an authenticated message (e.g., HMAC or RSA).

Security Considerations The CCNx protocol is a Layer 3 network protocol, which may also operate as an overlay using other transports such as UDP or other tunnels. It includes intrinsic support for message authentication via a signature (e.g., RSA or elliptic curve) or Message Authentication Code (e.g., HMAC). In lieu of an authenticator, it may instead use a Message Integrity Check (e.g., SHA or CRC). CCNx does not specify an encryption envelope; that function is left to a high-layer protocol (e.g., Encrypted Sessions in CCNx [esic]). The CCNx Packet format includes the ability to attach MICs (e.g., SHA-256 or CRC), MACs (e.g., HMAC), and Signatures (e.g., RSA or ECDSA) to all packet types. Because Interest packets can be sent at will, an application should carefully select when to use a given ValidationAlgorithm in an Interest to avoid DoS attacks. MICs, for example, are inexpensive and could be used as desired, whereas MACs and Signatures are more expensive and their inappropriate use could open a computational DoS attack surface. Applications should use an explicit protocol to guide their use of packet signatures. As a general guideline, an application might use a MIC on an Interest to detect unintentionally corrupted packets. If one wishes to secure an Interest, one should consider using an encrypted wrapper and a protocol that prevents replay attacks, especially if the Interest is being used as an actuator. Simply using an authentication code or signature does not make an Interest secure. There are several examples in the literature on how to secure ICN-style messaging [mobile] [ace].Mosko, et al. Experimental [Page 41]
RFC 8609 CCNx TLV July 2019 As a Layer 3 protocol, this document does not describe how one arrives at keys or how one trusts keys. The CCNx content object may include a public key embedded in the object or may use the PublicKeyLocator field to point to a public key (or public-key certificate) that authenticates the message. One key exchange specification is CCNxKE [ccnxke] [mobile], which is similar to the TLS 1.3 key exchange except it is over the CCNx Layer 3 messages. Trust is beyond the scope of a Layer 3 protocol and is left to applications or application frameworks. The combination of an ephemeral key exchange (e.g., CCNxKE [ccnxke]) and an encapsulating encryption (e.g., [esic]) provides the equivalent of a TLS tunnel. Intermediate nodes may forward the Interests and Content Objects but have no visibility inside. It also completely hides the internal names in those used by the encryption layer. This type of tunneling encryption is useful for content that has little or no cacheability, as it can only be used by someone with the ephemeral key. Short-term caching may help with lossy links or mobility, but long-term caching is usually not of interest. Broadcast encryption or proxy re-encryption may be useful for content with multiple uses over time or many consumers. There is currently no recommendation for this form of encryption. The specific encoding of messages will have security implications. This document uses a Type-Length-Value (TLV) encoding. We chose to compromise between extensibility and unambiguous encodings of types and lengths. Some TLV encodings use variable-length T and variable- length L fields to accommodate a wide gamut of values while trying to be byte efficient. Our TLV encoding uses a fixed length 2-byte T and 2-byte L. Using fixed-length T and L fields solves two problems. The first is aliases. If one is able to encode the same value, such as 0x02 and 0x0002, in different byte lengths, then one must decide if they mean the same thing, if they are different, or if one is illegal. If they are different, then one must always compare on the buffers not the integer equivalents. If one is illegal, then one must validate the TLV encoding -- every field of every packet at every hop. If they are the same, then one has the second problem: how to specify packet filters. For example, if a name has 6 name components, then there are 7 T fields and 7 L fields, each of which might have up to 4 representations of the same value. That would be 14 fields with 4 encodings each, or 1001 combinations. It also means that one cannot compare, for example, a name via a memory function, as one needs to consider that any embedded T or L might have a different format.Mosko, et al. Experimental [Page 42]
RFC 8609 CCNx TLV July 2019 The Interest Return message has no authenticator from the previous hop. Therefore, the payload of the Interest Return should only be used locally to match an Interest. A node should never forward that Interest payload as an Interest. It should also verify that it sent the Interest in the Interest Return to that node and not allow anyone to negate Interest messages. Caching nodes must take caution when processing content objects. It is essential that the Content Store obey the rules outlined in [RFC8569] to avoid certain types of attacks. CCNx 1.0 has no mechanism to work around an undesired result from the network (there are no "excludes"), so if a cache becomes poisoned with bad content it might cause problems retrieving content. There are three types of access to content from a Content Store: unrestricted, signature restricted, and hash restricted. If an Interest has no restrictions, then the requester is not particular about what they get back, so any matching cached object is OK. In the hash restricted case, the requester is very specific about what they want, and the Content Store (and every forward hop) can easily verify that the content matches the request. In the signature restricted case (which is often used for initial manifest discovery), the requester only knows the KeyId that signed the content. This case requires the closest attention in the Content Store to avoid amplifying bad data. The Content Store must only respond with a content object if it can verify the signature -- this means either the content object carries the public key inside it or the Interest carries the public key in addition to the KeyId. If that is not the case, then the Content Store should treat the Interest as a cache miss and let an endpoint respond. A user-level cache could perform full signature verification by fetching a public key according to the PublicKeyLocator. However, that is not a burden we wish to impose on the forwarder. A user- level cache could also rely on out-of-band attestation, such as the cache operator only inserting content that it knows has the correct signature. The CCNx grammar allows for hash algorithm agility via the HashType. It specifies a short list of acceptable hash algorithms that should be implemented at each forwarder. Some hash values only apply to end systems, so updating the hash algorithm does not affect forwarders -- they would simply match the buffer that includes the type-length-hash buffer. Some fields, such as the ConObjHash, must be verified at each hop, so a forwarder (or related system) must know the hash algorithm, and it could cause backward compatibility problems if the hash type is updated.Mosko, et al. Experimental [Page 43]
RFC 8609 CCNx TLV July 2019 A CCNx name uses binary matching, whereas a URI uses a case- insensitive hostname. Some systems may also use case-insensitive matching of the URI path to a resource. An implication of this is that human-entered CCNx names will likely have case or non-ASCII symbol mismatches unless one uses a consistent URI normalization for the CCNx name. It also means that an entity that registers a CCNx- routable prefix -- say, "ccnx:/example.com" -- would need separate registrations for simple variations like "ccnx:/Example.com". Unless this is addressed in URI normalization and routing protocol conventions, there could be phishing attacks.
