Introduction A distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack is an attempt to make machines or network resources unavailable to their intended users. In most cases, sufficient scale can be achieved by compromising enough end-hosts and using those infected hosts to perpetrate and amplify the attack. The victim of such attack can be an application server, a router, a firewall, an entire network, etc. As discussed in [I-D.ietf-dots-requirements], the lack of a common method to coordinate a real-time response among involved actors and network domains inhibits the speed and effectiveness of DDoS attack mitigation. From that standpoint, DDoS Open Threat Signaling (DOTS) [I-D.ietf-dots-architecture] defines an architecture that allows a DOTS client to send requests to a DOTS server for DDoS attack mitigation. The DOTS approach is thus meant to minimize the impact of DDoS attacks, thereby contributing to the enforcement of more efficient defensive if not proactive security strategies. To that aim, DOTS defines two channels: the signal and the data channels (Figure 1). +---------------+ +---------------+ | | <------- Signal Channel ------> | | | DOTS Client | | DOTS Server | | | <======= Data Channel ======> | | +---------------+ +---------------+ Figure 1: DOTS Channels The DOTS signal channel is used to carry information about a device or a network (or a part thereof) that is under a DDoS attack. Such information is sent by a DOTS client to an upstream DOTS server so that appropriate mitigation actions are undertaken on traffic deemed suspicious. The DOTS signal channel is further elaborated in [I-D.ietf-dots-signal-channel]. As for the DOTS data channel, it is used for infrequent bulk data exchange between DOTS agents to significantly improve the coordination of all the parties involved in the response to the Reddy, et al. Expires July 15, 2018 [Page 3] Internet-Draft DOTS Data Channel January 2018 attack. Section 2 of [I-D.ietf-dots-architecture] mentions that the DOTS data channel is used to perform the following tasks: o Creating aliases for resources for which mitigation may be requested. A DOTS client may submit to its DOTS server a collection of prefixes which it would like to refer to by an alias when requesting mitigation. The DOTS server can respond to this request with either a success or failure response (see Section 2 in [I-D.ietf-dots-architecture]). Refer to Section 6 for more details. o Filter management, which enables a DOTS client to request the installation or withdrawal of traffic filters, dropping or rate- limiting unwanted traffic, and permitting white-listed traffic. Sample use cases for populating black- or white-list filtering rules are detailed hereafter: * If a network resource (DOTS client) detects a potential DDoS attack from a set of IP addresses, the DOTS client informs its servicing DOTS gateway of all suspect IP addresses that need to be blocked or black-listed for further investigation. The DOTS client could also specify a list of protocols and port numbers in the black-list rule. The DOTS gateway then propagates the black-listed IP addresses to a DOTS server which will undertake appropriate actions so that traffic originated by these IP addresses to the target network (specified by the DOTS client) is blocked. * A network, that has partner sites from which only legitimate traffic arrives, may want to ensure that the traffic from these sites is not subjected to DDoS attack mitigation. The DOTS client uses the DOTS data channel to convey the white-listed IP prefixes of the partner sites to its DOTS server. The DOTS server uses this information to white-list flows originated by such IP prefixes and which reach the network. Refer to Section 7 for more details. Reddy, et al.

Notational Conventions and Terminology The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119]. The reader should be familiar with the terms defined in [I-D.ietf-dots-architecture]. The terminology for describing YANG data modules is defined in [RFC7950]. The meaning of the symbols in tree diagrams is defined in [I-D.ietf-netmod-yang-tree-diagrams]. For the sake of simplicity, all of the examples in this document use "/restconf" as the discovered RESTCONF API root path. Many protocol header lines and message-body text within examples throughout the document are split into multiple lines for display purposes only. When a line ends with backslash ('\') as the last character, the line is wrapped for display purposes. It is to be considered to be joined to the next line by deleting the backslash, the following line break, and the leading whitespace of the next line. 3. DOTS Data Channel: Design Overview Unlike the DOTS signal channel [I-D.ietf-dots-signal-channel], which must remain operational even when confronted with signal degradation due to packets loss, the DOTS data channel is not expected to be fully operational at all times, especially when a DDoS attack is underway. The requirements for a DOTS data channel protocol are documented in [I-D.ietf-dots-requirements]. This specification does not require an order of DOTS signal and data channel creations nor mandates a time interval between them. These considerations are implementation- and deployment-specific. As the primary function of the data channel is data exchange, a reliable transport mode is required in order for DOTS agents to detect data delivery success or failure. This document uses RESTCONF [RFC8040] over TLS [RFC5246] over TCP as the DOTS data channel protocol (Figure 2). Note: RESTCONF is a protocol based on HTTP [RFC7230] to provide CRUD (create, read, update, delete) operations on a conceptual datastore containing YANG data. Concretely, RESTCONF is used for configuring data defined in YANG version 1 [RFC6020] or YANG version 1.1 [RFC7950], using the datastore concepts defined in the Network Configuration Protocol (NETCONF) [RFC6241]. RESTCONF combines the simplicity of the HTTP protocol with the Reddy, et al. Expires July 15, 2018 [Page 5] Internet-Draft DOTS Data Channel January 2018 predictability and automation potential of a schema-driven API. RESTCONF offers a simple subset of NETCONF functionality and provides a simplified interface using REST-like API which addresses the needs of the DOTS data channel and hence an optimal choice. +-------------------+ | DOTS Data Channel | +-------------------+ | RESTCONF | +-------------------+ | TLS | +-------------------+ | TCP | +-------------------+ | IP | +-------------------+ Figure 2: Abstract Layering of DOTS Data Channel over RESTCONF over TLS The HTTP POST, PUT, PATCH, and DELETE methods are used to edit data resources represented by DOTS data channel YANG data modules. These basic edit operations allow the DOTS data channel running configuration to be altered by a DOTS client. DOTS data channel configuration information as well as state information can be retrieved with the GET method. An HTTP status- line header field is returned for each request to report success or failure for RESTCONF operations (Section 5.4 of [RFC8040]). The DOTS client performs the root resource discovery procedure discussed in Section 3.1 of [RFC8040] to determine the root of the RESTCONF API. After discovering the RESTCONF API root, the DOTS client uses this value as the initial part of the path in the request URI, in any subsequent request to the DOTS server. The DOTS server may support the retrieval of the YANG modules it supports (Section 3.7 in [RFC8040]). For example, a DOTS client may use RESTCONF to retrieve the vendor-specific YANG modules supported by the DOTS server. JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) [RFC7159] payload is used to propagate the DOTS data channel specific payload messages that carry request parameters and response information, such as errors. This specification uses the encoding rules defined in [RFC7951] for representing DOTS data channel configuration data using YANG (Section 5) as JSON text. Reddy, et al. Expires July 15, 2018 [Page 6] Internet-Draft DOTS Data Channel January 2018 A DOTS client registers itself to its DOTS server(s) in order to set up DOTS data channel-related configuration data and receive state data (i.e., non-configuration data) from the DOTS server(s). A single DOTS data channel between DOTS agents can be used to exchange multiple requests and multiple responses. To reduce DOTS client and DOTS server workload, DOTS client SHOULD re-use the same TLS session. While the communication to the DOTS server is quiescent, the DOTS client MAY probe the server to ensure it has maintained cryptographic state. Such probes can also keep alive firewall and/or NAT bindings. A TLS heartbeat [RFC6520] verifies that the DOTS server still has TLS state by returning a TLS message. In deployments where one or more translators (e.g., NAT44, NAT64, NPTv6) are enabled between the client's network and the DOTS server, DOTS data channel messages forwarded to a DOTS server must not include internal IP addresses/prefixes and/or port numbers; external addresses/prefixes and/or port numbers as assigned by the translator must be used instead. This document does not make any recommendation about possible translator discovery mechanisms. The following are some (non-exhaustive) deployment examples that may be considered: o Port Control Protocol (PCP) [RFC6887] or Session Traversal Utilities for NAT (STUN) [RFC5389] may be used to retrieve the external addresses/prefixes and/or port numbers. Information retrieved by means of PCP or STUN will be used to feed the DOTS data channel messages that will be sent to a DOTS server. o A DOTS gateway may be co-located with the translator. The DOTS gateway will need to update the DOTS messages, based upon the local translator's binding table. When a server-domain DOTS gateway is involved in DOTS data channel exchanges, the same considerations for manipulating the 'client- domain-hash' parameter as specified in [I-D.ietf-dots-signal-channel] MUST be followed by DOTS agents. A DOTS server may detect conflicting filtering requests from the same or distinct DOTS clients which belong to the same domain. For example, a DOTS client would request to blacklist a prefix, while another DOTS client would request to whitelist that same prefix. It is out of scope of this specification to recommend the behavior to follow for handling conflicting requests (e.g., reject all, reject the new request, notify an administrator for validation). DOTS servers SHOULD support a configuration parameter to indicate the behavior to follow when a conflict is detected. Section 7.1 specifies the behavior when no instruction is supplied to a DOTS server. Reddy, et al. Expires July 15, 2018 [Page 7] Internet-Draft DOTS Data Channel January 2018 4. DOTS Server(s) Discovery This document assumes that DOTS clients are provisioned with the reachability information of their DOTS server(s) using a variety of means (e.g., local configuration, or dynamic means such as DHCP). The specification of such means are out of scope of this document. Likewise, it is out of scope of this document to specify the behavior to follow by a DOTS client to place its requests (e.g., contact all servers, select one server among the list) when multiple DOTS servers are provisioned. 5. DOTS Data Channel YANG Module 5.1. Identifier YANG Tree Structure The YANG module (ietf-dots-data-channel) allows to create aliases, for resources for which mitigation may be requested. Such aliases may be used in subsequent DOTS signal channel exchanges to refer more efficiently to the resources under attack. The tree structure for DOTS aliases is as follows: +--rw aliases +--rw dots-client* [cuid] +--rw cuid string +--rw client-domain-hash? string +--rw alias* [alias-name] +--rw alias-name string +--rw target-prefix* inet:ip-prefix +--rw target-port-range* [lower-port upper-port] | +--rw lower-port inet:port-number | +--rw upper-port inet:port-number +--rw target-protocol* uint8 +--rw target-fqdn* inet:domain-name +--rw target-uri* inet:uri This structure is aligned with [I-D.ietf-dots-signal-channel]. 5.2. Filter YANG Tree Structure 5.2.1. DOTS ACL YANG Profile This document augments the Access Control List (ACL) YANG module [I-D.ietf-netmod-acl-model] for managing DOTS filtering rules. The notion of ACL is explained in Section 1 of [I-D.ietf-netmod-acl-model]. Reddy, et al. Expires July 15, 2018 [Page 8] Internet-Draft DOTS Data Channel January 2018 Examples of ACL management in a DOTS context include, but not limited to: o Black-list management, which enables a DOTS client to inform a DOTS server about sources from which traffic should be discarded. o White-list management, which enables a DOTS client to inform a DOTS server about sources from which traffic should always be accepted. o Filter management, which enables a DOTS client to request the installation or withdrawal of traffic filters, dropping or rate- limiting unwanted traffic and permitting white-listed traffic. DOTS implementations MUST support the following features defined in [I-D.ietf-netmod-acl-model]: match-on-ipv4, match-on-ipv6, match-on-tcp, match-on-udp, match- on-icmp, ipv4, and ipv6. Given that DOTS data channel does not deal with interfaces, the support of the "ietf-interfaces" module [RFC7223] and its augmentation in the "ietf-access-control-list" module are not required for DOTS. Specifically, the support of interface-related features and branches (e.g., interface-attachment, interface-stats, acl-aggregate-stats, and interface-acl-aggregate) of the ACL YANG module is not required. The following forwarding actions MUST be supported: 'accept' and 'drop' The support of 'reject' action is NOT RECOMMENDED because it is not appropriate in the context of DDoS mitigation. Generating ICMP messages to notify drops when mitigating a DDoS attack will exacerbate the DDoS attack. Further, it will be used by an attacker as an explicit signal that the traffic is being blocked. The following tree structure provides the excerpt of the "ietf- access-control-list" module to be supported by DOTS implementations. +--rw access-lists +--rw acl* [name] | +--rw name string | +--rw acl-type? acl-type | +--rw aces | +--rw ace* [rule-name] | +--rw rule-name string Reddy, et al.

DOTS Augmentation to the IETF-ACL YANG Module This document defines the DOTS Data Channel YANG to augment the "ietf-access-control-list" module to support filters based on the DOTS client unique identifier (cuid) and/or the client domain identity (client-domain-hash), to support rate-limit action (rate- limit), and to handle fragmented packets (fragments). The tree structure for augmented DOTS filtering rules is as follows: augment /ietf-acl:access-lists/ietf-acl:acl: +--rw cuid string +--rw client-domain-hash? string +--rw lifetime int32 augment /ietf-acl:access-lists/ietf-acl:acl/ietf-acl:aces /ietf-acl:ace/ietf-acl:actions: +--rw rate-limit? decimal64 augment /ietf-acl:access-lists/ietf-acl:acl/ietf-acl:aces /ietf-acl:ace/ietf-acl:matches/ietf-acl:ipv4-acl: +--rw fragments? empty augment /ietf-acl:access-lists/ietf-acl:acl/ietf-acl:aces /ietf-acl:ace/ietf-acl:matches/ietf-acl:ipv6-acl: +--rw fragments? empty augment /ietf-acl:access-lists: +--rw dots-acl-order +--rw acl-set* [cuid name type] +--rw cuid -> /ietf-acl:access-lists/acl/cuid +--rw client-domain-hash? -> /ietf-acl:access-lists/acl/client-domain-hash +--rw name -> /ietf-acl:access-lists/acl/acl-name +--rw type -> /ietf-acl:access-lists/acl/acl-type Filtering fragments adds an additional layer of protection against a DoS attack that uses non-initial fragments only. When there is only Reddy, et al. Expires July 15, 2018 [Page 11] Internet-Draft DOTS Data Channel January 2018 Layer 3 information in the ACL entry and the fragments keyword is present, for non-initial fragments matching the ACL entry, the 'deny' or 'permit' action associated with the ACL entry will be enforced. For initial or non-fragment matching the ACL entry, the next ACL entry will be processed. When there is both Layer 3 and Layer 4 information in the ACL entry and the fragments keyword is present, the ACL action is conservative for both permit and deny actions. The actions are conservative to not accidentally deny a fragmented portion of a flow because the fragments do not contain sufficient information to match all of the filter attributes. In the deny action case, instead of denying a non-initial fragment, the next ACL entry is processed. In the permit case, it is assumed that the Layer 4 information in the non-initial fragment, if available, matches the Layer 4 information in the ACL entry. 5.3.

Create Aliases A POST request is used to create aliases, for resources for which a mitigation may be requested. Such aliases may be used in subsequent DOTS signal channel exchanges to refer more efficiently to the resources under attack (Figure 3). DOTS clients within the same domain can create different aliases for the same resource. Reddy, et al. Expires July 15, 2018 [Page 19] Internet-Draft DOTS Data Channel January 2018 POST /restconf/data/ietf-dots-data-channel:aliases HTTP/1.1 Host: {host}:{port} Content-Type: application/yang-data+json { "ietf-dots-data-channel:dots-client": { "cuid": string, "alias": [ { "alias-name": "string", "target-prefix": [ "string" ], "target-port-range": [ { "lower-port": integer, "upper-port": integer } ], "target-protocol": [ integer ], "target-fqdn": [ "string" ], "target-uri": [ "string" ] } ] } } Figure 3: POST to Create Aliases The parameters are described below: cuid: A unique identifier that is meant to prevent collisions among DOTS clients that belong to the same domain. This attribute has the same meaning, syntax, and processing rules as the 'cuid' attribute defined in [I-D.ietf-dots-signal-channel]. This is a mandatory attribute. alias-name: Name of the alias. This is a mandatory attribute. Reddy, et al. Expires July 15, 2018 [Page 20] Internet-Draft DOTS Data Channel January 2018 target-prefix: Prefixes are separated by commas. Prefixes are represented using Classless Inter-domain Routing (CIDR) notation [RFC4632]. As a reminder, the prefix length must be less than or equal to 32 (resp. 128) for IPv4 (resp. IPv6). This is an optional attribute. target-port-range: A range of port numbers. The port range is defined by two bounds, a lower port number (lower-port) and an upper port number (upper-port). When only 'lower-port' is present, it represents a single port number. For TCP, UDP, Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) [RFC4960], or Datagram Congestion Control Protocol (DCCP) [RFC4340], the range of port numbers can be, for example, 1024-65535. This is an optional attribute. target-protocol: A list of protocols. Values are taken from the IANA protocol registry [proto_numbers]. The value '0' has a special meaning for 'all protocols'. This is an optional attribute. target-fqdn: A list of Fully Qualified Domain Names (FQDNs). An FQDN is the full name of a resource, rather than just its hostname. For example, "venera" is a hostname, and "venera.isi.edu" is an FQDN. This is an optional attribute. target-uri: A list of Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs) [RFC3986]. This is an optional attribute. In deployments where server-domain DOTS gateways are enabled, identity information about the origin source client domain has to be supplied to the DOTS server. That information is meant to assist the DOTS server to enforce some policies. Figure 4 shows an example of a request relayed by a server-domain DOTS gateway. Reddy, et al. Expires July 15, 2018 [Page 21] Internet-Draft DOTS Data Channel January 2018 POST /restconf/data/ietf-dots-data-channel HTTP/1.1 Host: {host}:{port} Content-Type: application/yang-data+json { "ietf-dots-data-channel:dots-client": { "client-domain-hash": "string", "cuid": "string", "alias": [ { "alias-name": "string", "target-prefix": [ "string" ], "target-port-range": [ { "lower-port": integer, "upper-port": integer } ], "target-protocol": [ integer ], "target-fqdn": [ "string" ], "target-uri": [ "string" ] } ] } } Figure 4: POST to Create Aliases (DOTS Gateway) A server-domain DOTS gateway may add the following attribute: client-domain-hash: This attribute has the same meaning, syntax, and processing rules as the 'client-domain-hash' attribute defined in [I-D.ietf-dots-signal-channel]. This is an optional attribute. In the POST request, at least one of the 'target-prefix' or 'target- fqdn' or 'target-uri' attributes MUST be present. DOTS agents can safely ignore Vendor-Specific parameters they don't understand. Reddy, et al.

POST /restconf/data/ietf-dots-data-channel HTTP/1.1 Host: www.example.com Content-Type: application/yang-data+json { "ietf-dots-data-channel:dots-client": { "cuid": "7dec-11d0-a765-00a0c91e6bf6@foo.bar.example", "alias": [ { "alias-name": "https1", "target-protocol": [ 6 ], "target-prefix": [ "2001:db8:6401::1/128", "2001:db8:6401::2/128" ], "target-port-range": [ { "lower-port": 443 } ] } ] } } Figure 5: Example of a POST to Create Aliases The DOTS server indicates the result of processing the POST request using status-line codes. Status codes in the range "2xx" codes are success, "4xx" codes are some sort of invalid requests and "5xx" codes are returned if the DOTS server has erred or is incapable of accepting the alias. "201 Created" status-line is returned in the response if the DOTS server has accepted the alias. If the request is missing one or more mandatory attributes, or if the request contains invalid or unknown parameters, then "400 Bad Request" status-line MUST be returned in the response. The HTTP response will include the JSON body received in the request. A DOTS client MAY use the PUT request (Section 4.5 in [RFC8040]) to create or modify the aliases in the DOTS server. Reddy, et al. Expires July 15, 2018 [Page 23] Internet-Draft DOTS Data Channel January 2018 6.2. Retrieve Installed Aliases A GET request is used to retrieve one or all installed aliases by a DOTS client from a DOTS server (Section 3.3.1 in [RFC8040]). If no 'alias-name' parameter is included in the request, this is an indication that the request is about retrieving all identifiers instantiated by the DOTS client. Figure 6 shows an example to retrieve all the identifiers that were instantiated by the DOTS client. The content parameter and its permitted values are defined in Section 4.8.1 of [RFC8040]. GET /restconf/data/ietf-dots-data-channel:aliases\ /cuid=7dec-11d0-a765-00a0c91e6bf6@foo.bar.example?content=config HTTP/1.1 Host: {host}:{port} Accept: application/yang-data+json Figure 6: GET to Retrieve All Installed Aliases Figure 7 shows an example of response message body that includes all the aliases that are maintained by the DOTS server for the DOTS client identified by the 'cuid' parameter.

Reddy, et al. Expires July 15, 2018 [Page 25] Internet-Draft DOTS Data Channel January 2018 6.3. Delete Aliases A DELETE request is used to delete aliases maintained by a DOTS server. In RESTCONF, URI-encoded path expressions are used. A RESTCONF data resource identifier is encoded from left to right, starting with the top-level data node, according to the 'api-path' rule defined in Section 3.5.3.1 of [RFC8040]. The data node in the path expression is a YANG list node and MUST be encoded according to the rules defined in Section 3.5.1 of [RFC8040]. If the DOTS server does not find the alias name conveyed in the DELETE request in its configuration data, it MUST respond with a "404 Not Found" status-line. The DOTS server successfully acknowledges a DOTS client's request to remove the alias using "204 No Content" status-line in the response. Figure 8 shows an example of a request to delete an alias. DELETE /restconf/data/ietf-dots-data-channel:aliases\ /cuid=7dec-11d0-a765-00a0c91e6bf6@foo.bar.example/alias-name=Server1 HTTP/1.1 Host: {host}:{port} Figure 8: Delete an Alias 7. DOTS Filtering Rules The DOTS server either receives the filtering rules directly from the DOTS client or via a DOTS gateway. If the DOTS client signals the filtering rules via a DOTS gateway, the DOTS gateway first verifies that the DOTS client is authorized to signal the filtering rules. If the client is authorized, it propagates the rules to the DOTS server. Likewise, the DOTS server verifies that the DOTS gateway is authorized to signal the filtering rules. To create or purge filters, the DOTS client sends HTTP requests to its DOTS gateway. The DOTS gateway validates the rules in the requests and proxies the requests containing the filtering rules to a DOTS server. When the DOTS gateway receives the associated HTTP response from the DOTS server, it propagates the response back to the DOTS client. The following sub-sections define means for a DOTS client to configure filtering rules on a DOTS server. Reddy, et al. Expires July 15, 2018 [Page 26] Internet-Draft DOTS Data Channel January 2018 7.1. Install Filtering Rules A POST request is used to push filtering rules to a DOTS server. Figure 9 shows a POST request example to block traffic from 192.0.2.0/24 and destined to 198.51.100.0/24. The ACL JSON configuration for the filtering rule is generated using the ACL YANG module (Section 4.3 of [I-D.ietf-netmod-acl-model]). POST /restconf/data/ietf-access-control-list HTTP/1.1 Host: www.example.com Content-Type: application/yang-data+json { "ietf-access-control-list:access-lists": { "acl": [ { "acl-name": "sample-ipv4-acl", "acl-type": "ipv4-acl", "data-channel:cuid": "7dec-11d0-a765-00a0c91e6bf6@foo.bar.example", "data-channel:lifetime": 10080, "aces": { "ace": [ { "rule-name": "rule1", "matches": { "ipv4-acl": { "source-ipv4-network": "192.0.2.0/24", "destination-ipv4-network": "198.51.100.0/24" } }, "actions": { "forwarding": "drop" } } ] } } ] } } Figure 9: POST to Install Filtering Rules The meaning of these parameters is as follows: acl-name: The name of the access-list. This is a mandatory attribute. Reddy, et al. Expires July 15, 2018 [Page 27] Internet-Draft DOTS Data Channel January 2018 acl-type: Indicates the primary intended type of match criteria (e.g., IPv4, IPv6). It is set to 'ipv4-acl' in this example. This is a mandatory attribute. cuid: A unique identifier that is meant to prevent collisions among DOTS clients that belong to the same domain [I-D.ietf-dots-signal-channel]. This is a mandatory attribute. lifetime: Lifetime of the ACL, in minutes. The RECOMMENDED lifetime of a ACL is 10080 minutes (1 week). DOTS clients MUST include this parameter in their filtering requests. Upon the expiry of this lifetime, and if the request is not refreshed but no mitigation is active, the filtering request is removed. The request can be refreshed by sending the same request again. A lifetime of '0' in a request is an invalid value. A lifetime of negative one (-1) indicates indefinite lifetime for the filtering request. The DOTS server MAY refuse indefinite lifetime, for policy reasons; the granted lifetime value is returned in the response. DOTS clients MUST be prepared to not be granted filtering with indefinite lifetimes. The DOTS server MUST always indicate the actual lifetime in the response and the remaining lifetime in status messages sent to the DOTS client. This is a mandatory attribute. source-ipv4-network: The source IPv4 prefix. This is an optional attribute. destination-ipv4-network: The destination IPv4 prefix. This is an optional attribute. actions: Actions in the forwarding ACL category can be "drop" or "accept" or "rate-limit". The "accept" action is used to white- list traffic. The "drop" action is used to black-list traffic. The "rate-limit" action is used to rate-limit traffic, the allowed traffic rate is represented in bytes per second indicated in IEEE floating point format [IEEE.754.1985]. This is a mandatory attribute. Reddy, et al. Expires July 15, 2018 [Page 28] Internet-Draft DOTS Data Channel January 2018 The DOTS server indicates the result of processing the POST request using the status-line header. "2xx" codes are success, 4xx codes are some sort of invalid requests, and 5xx codes are returned if the DOTS server has erred or is incapable of configuring the filtering rules. Concretely, "201 Created" status-line MUST be returned in the response if the DOTS server has accepted the filtering rules. If the request is missing one or more mandatory attributes or contains invalid or unknown parameters, then "400 Bad Request" status-line MUST be returned in the response. If the request is conflicting with an existing filtering, the DOTS server returns "409 Conflict" status-line to the requesting DOTS client. The error-tag "invalid-value" is used in this case. The "insert" query parameter (Section 4.8.5 of [RFC8040]) MAY be used to specify how an Access Control Entry (ACE) is inserted within an ACL and how an ACL is inserted within an ACL set in container dots- acl-order. The DOTS client MAY use the PUT request to create or modify the filtering rules in the DOTS server. 7.2. Retrieve Installed Filtering Rules The DOTS client periodically queries the DOTS server to check the counters for installed filtering rules. A GET request is used to retrieve filtering rules from a DOTS server. If the DOTS server does not find the access list name and access list type conveyed in the GET request in its configuration data, it responds with a "404 Not Found" status-line. Figure 10 shows how to retrieve all the filtering rules programmed by the DOTS client and the number of matches for the installed filtering rules. GET /restconf/data/ietf-access-control-list:access-lists\ /data-channel:cuid=7dec-11d0-a765-00a0c91e6bf6@foo.bar.example?\ content=all HTTP/1.1 Host: {host}:{port} Accept: application/yang-data+json Figure 10: GET to Retrieve the Configuration Data and State Data for the Filtering Rules Reddy, et al. Expires July 15, 2018 [Page 29] Internet-Draft DOTS Data Channel January 2018 7.3. Remove Filtering Rules A DELETE request is used to delete filtering rules from a DOTS server. If the DOTS server does not find the access list name and access list type carried in the DELETE request in its configuration data, it responds with a "404 Not Found" status-line. The DOTS server successfully acknowledges a DOTS client's request to withdraw the filtering rules using "204 No Content" status-line, and removes the filtering rules accordingly. Figure 11 shows an example of a request to remove the IPv4 ACL named "sample-ipv4-acl". DELETE /restconf/data/ietf-access-control-list:access-lists\ /data-channel:cuid=7dec-11d0-a765-00a0c91e6bf6@foo.bar.example\ /acl-name=sample-ipv4-acl\ /acl-type=ipv4-acl HTTP/1.1 Host: {host}:{port} Figure 11: DELETE to Remove the Filtering Rules 8.

Expires July 15, 2018 [Page 30] Internet-Draft DOTS Data Channel January 2018 10. Security Considerations RESTCONF security considerations are discussed in [RFC8040]. In particular, DOTS agents MUST follow the security recommendations in Sections 2 and 12 of [RFC8040] and support the mutual authentication TLS profile discussed in Sections 7.1 and 8 of [I-D.ietf-dots-signal-channel]. Authenticated encryption MUST be used for data confidentiality and message integrity. The interaction between the DOTS agents requires Transport Layer Security (TLS) with a cipher suite offering confidentiality protection and the guidance given in [RFC7525] MUST be followed to avoid attacks on TLS. An attacker may be able to inject RST packets, bogus application segments, etc., regardless of whether TLS authentication is used. Because the application data is TLS protected, this will not result in the application receiving bogus data, but it will constitute a DoS on the connection. This attack can be countered by using TCP-AO [RFC5925]. If TCP-AO is used, then any bogus packets injected by an attacker will be rejected by the TCP-AO integrity check and therefore will never reach the TLS layer. In order to prevent leaking internal information outside a client- domain, client-side DOTS gateways SHOULD NOT reveal the identity of internal DOTS clients (e.g., source IP address, client's hostname) unless explicitly configured to do so. Special care should be taken in order to ensure that the activation of the proposed mechanism will not affect the stability of the network (including connectivity and services delivered over that network). All data nodes defined in the YANG module which can be created, modified, and deleted (i.e., config true, which is the default) are considered sensitive. Write operations applied to these data nodes without proper protection can negatively affect network operations. Appropriate security measures are recommended to prevent illegitimate users from invoking DOTS data channel primitives. Nevertheless, an attacker who can access a DOTS client is technically capable of launching various attacks, such as: o Set an arbitrarily low rate-limit, which may prevent legitimate traffic from being forwarded (rate-limit). o Set an arbitrarily high rate-limit, which may lead to the forwarding of illegitimate DDoS traffic (rate-limit). Reddy, et al. Expires July 15, 2018 [Page 31] Internet-Draft DOTS Data Channel January 2018 o Communicate invalid aliases to the server (alias), which will cause the failure of associating both data and signal channels. o Set invalid ACL entries, which may prevent legitimate traffic from being forwarded. Likewise, invalid ACL entries may lead to forward DDoS traffic. 11.
