Internet-Draft     Geopriv DHCP Location URI Option           Sept 2009

1.  Introduction

   This document creates a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) 
   Option for transmitting a client's geolocation Uniform Resource 
   Identifier (URI). The DHCP implementation of the client can then 
   make this location information available to upper layer protocols 
   for their usage.  This location URI points a Location Server 
   [ID-LBYR-REQ] which has the geolocation of the client (through means
   not defined in this document).  In this scenario, the DHCP client 
   is a Geopriv Target (i.e., the entity whose geolocation is 
   associated by the location URI). 

   Applications using upper layer protocols within the Target can then 
   choose to deference this location URI and/or transmit the URI to 
   another entity as a means of conveying where the Target is located. 
   Dereferencing a location URI is described in [ID-SIP-LOC]. Conveying
   a location URI is also described in [ID-SIP-LOC]. Session Initiation
   Protocol (SIP) is not the only protocol that can dereference a 
   location URI; there is also HTTP-Enabled Location Delivery (HELD) 
   [ID-HELD-DEREF].

   Having a location URI has advantages over having a PIDF-LO, 
   especially when a target's location changes.  With a location URI, 
   when a target moves, the location URI does not change (at least 
   within the same domain). It can still be given out as the reference 
   to the Target's current location. The opposite is true if the 
   location is conveyed by value in a message. Once the Target moves, 
   the previously given location is no longer valid, and it the Target 
   wants to inform another entity about its location, it has to send 
   the PIDF-LO to the location recipient (again). 

   A Location Server (LS) stores the Target's location as a presence 
   document, called a Presence Information Date Format - Location 
   Object (PIDF-LO), defined in RFC 4119 [RFC4119]. The Location Server
   is the entity contacted during the act of dereferencing a Target's 
   location.  If the dereferencing entity has permission, defined in 
   [ID-GEO-POL], the location of the target will be received.  The LS 
   will grant permission to location inquires based on the rules 
   established by a Rule Holder [RFC3693].  The LS has the ability to 
   challenge any request for a target's location, thereby providing 
   additive security properties before location revelation. 

   A problem exists within existing RFCs that provide location to the 
   UA ([RFC3825] and [RFC4776]). These DHCP Options for geolocation 
   values require an update of the entire location information (LI) 
   every time a client moves.  Not all clients will move frequently, 
   but some will.  Refreshing location values every time a client moves
   does not scale in certain networks/environments, such as IP-based 
   cellular networks, enterprise networks or service provider networks 
   with mobile endpoints.  An 802.11 based access network is one 
   example of this. Constantly updating LCI to endpoints might not 
   scale in mobile (residential or enterprise or municipal) networks in


Polk                    Expires March 14, 2010                 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft     Geopriv DHCP Location URI Option           Sept 2009

   which the client is moving through more than one network attachment 
   point, perhaps as a person walks or drives with their client down a 
   neighborhood street or apartment complex or a shopping center or 
   through a municipality (that has IP connectivity as a service). 

   If the client were provided a location URI reference to retain and 
   hand out when it wants or needs to convey its location (in a 
   protocol other than DHCP), a location URI that would not change as 
   the client's location changes (within a domain), scaling issues 
   would be significantly reduced to needing an update of the location 
   URI only when a client changes administrative domains - which is 
   much less often.  This delivery of an indirect location has the 
   added benefit of not using up valuable or limited bandwidth to the 
   client with the constant updates.  It also relieves the client from 
   having to determine when it has moved far enough to consider asking 
   for a refresh of its location.  

   In enterprise networks, if a known location is assigned to each 
   individual Ethernet port in the network, a device that attaches to 
   the network a wall-jack (directly associated with a specific 
   Ethernet Switch port) will be associated with a known location via a
   unique circuit-ID that's used by the RAIO Option defined in RFC 3046
   [RFC3046].  This assumes wall-jacks have an updated wiremap 
   database.  RFC 3825 and RFC 4776 would return an LCI value of 
   location.  This document specifies how a location URI is returned 
   using DHCP.  Behind the DHCP server, in the backend of the network, 
   via the (logical entity of an) LS has a PIDF-LO to be dereferenced 
   with a location URI.  

   If local configuration has the requirement of only assigning unique 
   location URIs to each client, then unique location URIs will be 
   given out, though they will all have the same location at the 
   record, relieving the backend Sighter or LS from individually 
   maintaining each location independently.

   This Option can be useful in IEEE 802.16e connected endpoints or IP 
   cellular endpoints.  The location URI Option can be configured as a 
   client if there is a router, such as a residential home gateway, 
   with the ability to communicate to downstream endpoints as a server.

   How an LS responds to a dereference request can vary, and a policy 
   established by a Ruleholder [RFC3693] for a Location Target as to 
   what type of challenge(s) is to be used, how strong a challenge is 
   used or how precise the location information is given to a 
   Location Recipient (LR). All of this is outside the scope of this 
   document (since this will not be accomplished using DHCP).

   This document IANA registers the new IPv4 and IPv6 DHC Options for a
   location URI.

2.1 Overall Format of LuriElement Option in IPv4

   The LuriElement Option format for IPv4 is as follows:

     0                   1                   2                   3

   Length=XX: The length of this option, counted in bytes - not 
              counting the Code and Length bytes. This is a variable
              length Option, therefore the length value will change 
              based on the length of the URI within the Option.

                length Option, therefore the length value will change 
                based on the shape within the Option.

   Ver:         See above (Section 2.1). This will specify version 1.

   Resv:        See above (Section 2.1).

2.3 LuriElement Format for both IPv4 and IPv6

   The LuriElement, in both DHCPv4 and DHCPv6, have the following 
   format:

     0                   1                   2                   3

    +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

    Figure 3. LuriElement Format for both IPv4 and IPv6


      LuriType:   A one-byte identifier of the data location value.

      LuriLength: The length, in bytes, of the LuriValue, not including
                  the LuriLength field itself, up to a maximum of 255 
                  bytes.

      LuriValue:  The LuriElement value, as described in detail below.
                  The LuriValue is always in UTP-8.

   The LuriTypes this document defines (and IANA registers) for a point
   are:

      LuriType=1 Location URI - This is the URI pointing at the
                 location record where the PIDF-LO resides which
                 indicates the location of the Location Target.

      LuriType=2 Valid-For - The time, in seconds, this URI is to be 
                 considered Valid for dereferencing. The timer 
                 associated with this LuriType starts upon receipt of 
                 this Option. 

   The LuriType=2 (Valid-For) indicates how long, in seconds, the 
   client is to consider this LuriType=1 (location URI) valid 
   before performing a refresh of this Option, with a refreshed 
   LuriType=2 (Valid-For) value.  A Location URI refresh SHOULD be done
   the normal DHCP refresh rate, or necessitated by this timer, perhaps
   with the client only requesting this Option be refreshed.



Polk                    Expires March 14, 2010                 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft     Geopriv DHCP Location URI Option           Sept 2009

   If the LuriType=2 (Valid-For) timer is received (solicited or 
   unsolicited), it is RECOMMENDED that the client refresh the Location 
   URI when the (Valid-For) counter value has reaches the halfway 
   point.  For example, if 16000 was the initial value of the 
   LuriType=2 (Valid-For) value, when 8000 seconds have passed, the 
   Option SHOULD be refreshed.  

   The LuriType=2 (Valid-For) is not mandated for use by this document.
   However, its presence MUST NOT cause any error in handling the 
   location URI (i.e., if not understood, it MUST be ignored).

   This Option format is highly extensible. Additional LuriType types 
   created MUST be done so through IANA registration with peer review 
   and an RFC.


3. DHC Option Operation

   The [RFC3046] RAIO MUST be utilized to provide the appropriate 
   indication to the DHCP Server where this DISCOVER or REQUEST message
   came from, in order to supply the correct response.  That said, this
   Option SHOULD NOT be in a DISCOVER message, because there is zero 
   knowledge by the client of which Server will answer.  

   Caution SHOULD always be used involving the creation of large 
   Options, meaning that this Option MAY need to be in its own INFORM, 
   OPTION or ACK message.

   It is RECOMMENDED to avoid building URIs, with any parameters, 
   larger than what a single DHCP response can be.  However, if a 
   message is larger than 255 bytes, concatenation is allowed, per RFC 
   3396 [RFC3396].

   Per [RFC2131], subsequent LuriElement Options, which are 
   non-concatenated, overwrite the previous value.

   Location URIs MUST NOT reveal identity information of the user of 
   the device, since DHCP is a cleartext delivery protocol. For 
   example, location URIs such as

      sips:34LKJH534663J54@example.com 

   are to be done, providing no identity information, rather than a 
   location URI such as this

      sips:aliceisat123mainstalanta@example.com

   In the <presence> element of a PIDF-LO document, there is an 
   'entity' attribute that identities what entity *this* document 
   (including the associated location) refers to.  It is up to the 
   PIDF-LO generator, either Location Server or an application in the 
   endpoint, to insert the identity in the 'entity' attribute.  This 


Polk                    Expires March 14, 2010                 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft     Geopriv DHCP Location URI Option           Sept 2009

   can be seen in [RFC4119].  The entity= discussion is orthogonal to 
   the identification information contained within the location URI. 

   This Option is used only for communications between a DHCP client 
   and a DHCP server.  It can be solicited (requested) by the client, 
   or it can be pushed by the server without a request for it.  DHCP 
   Options not understood are ignored.  A DHCP server supporting this 
   Option might or might not have the location of a client.  If a 
   server does not have a client's location, but needs to provide this 
   Location URI Option to a client (for whatever reason), an LS is 
   contacted.  This server-to-LS transaction is not DHCP, therefore it 
   is out of scope of this document.

   The deference of a target's location URI would not involve DHCP, but
   an application layer protocol, such as SIP or HTTP, therefore 
   dereferencing is out of scope of this document. 

   In the case of residential gateways being DHCP servers, they usually
   perform as DHCP clients in a hierarchical fashion up into a service 
   provider's network DHCP server(s), or learn what information to 
   provide via DHCP to residential clients through a protocol, such as 
   PPP.  In these cases, the location URI would likely indicate the 
   residence's civic address to all wired or wireless clients within 
   that residence.  


3.1 Architectural Assumptions

   The following assumptions have been made for use of this LuriElement
   Option for a client to learn its location URI (in no particular 
   order):

   o  Any user control (what [RFC3693] calls a 'Ruleholder') for access
      to the dereferencing step is assumed to be out of scope of this 
      document. An example authorization policy is in [ID-GEO-POL].

   o  The authorization vs. possession security model can be found in 
      [ID-LBYR-REQ], describing what is expected in each model of 
      operation.  It should be assumed that a location URI attained 
      using DHCP will operate under an authorization model. This means 
      possessing the location URI does not give that entity the right 
      to view the PIDF-LO of the target whose location is indicated in
      a presence document.  The dereference transaction will be, in 
      many environments, challenged by the Location Server.  The nature
      of this challenge is out of scope of this document.  

   o  This document does not prevent some environments from operating 
      in a possession model, for example - tightly controlled 
      enterprise networks, but this operation SHOULD NOT be assumed to 
      exist as a matter of local policy. The costs associated with 
      authorization vs. possession models are discussed in Section 
      3.3.2 of [ID-GEO-RA].

3.2 Harmful URIs and URLs

   There are, in fact, some types of URIs that are not good to receive,
   due to security concerns.  For example, any URLs that can have 
   scripts, such as "data:" URLs, and some "HTTP:" URLs that go to web 
   pages that have scripts.  Therefore,

   o URIs received via this Option SHOULD NOT be sent to a 
     general-browser to connect to a web page, because they could have 
     harmful scripts.

   o This Option SHOULD NOT contain "data:" URLs, because they could 
     contain harmful scripts.

   Instead of listing all the types of URIs and URLs that can be 
   misused or potentially have harmful affects, Section 3.3 IANA 
   registers acceptable location URI schemes (or types).


3.3  Valid Location URI Schemes or Types

   This section specifies which URI types are acceptable as a location 
   URI scheme (or type) for this DHCP Option:

   1. sip:
   2. sips:
   3. pres:

   These location URI types are IANA registered in Section 4.2 of this 
   document.

   The following 3 URI types are registered by this document:

   1. sip:
   2. sips:
   3. pres:

   Any additional location URI types to be defined for use via 
   this DHC Option need to be created and IANA registered with peer 
   review and an RFC.

4.5 IANA Considerations for LuriTypes 

   IANA is requested to create a new registry for acceptable location 
   types defined in Section 3.2 of this document, arranged similar to 
   this:

   +------------+----------------------------------------+-----------+
   |  LuriType  |   Name                                 | Reference |
   +------------+----------------------------------------+-----------+
   |     1      |   Location URI                         | RFC XXXX* |
   |     2      |   Valid-For                            | RFC XXXX* |
   +------------+----------------------------------------+-----------+
    
    * RFC XXXX is to be replaced with this document's RFC-Editor RFC 
      number.

   Additions to this list require a standards track RFC.


5.  Security Considerations

   Where critical decisions might be based on the value of this 
   location URI option, DHCP authentication in [RFC3118] SHOULD be used
   to protect the integrity of the DHCP options.  

   A real concern with RFC 3118 it is that not widely deployed because 
   it requires pre-shared keys to successfully work (i.e., in the
   client and in the server).  Most implementations do not 
   accommodate this.

   DHCP, initially, is a broadcast request (a client looking for a 
   server), and a unicast response (answer from a server) type of 
   protocol.  It is not secure in a practical sense.  In today's 
   infrastructures, DHCP will be primarily used over a wired, switched 
   Ethernet network, requiring physical access to within a wire to gain
   access.  Further, within an 802.11 wireless network, the 802.11 
   specs offer layer 2 security mechanisms to prevent a location URI

   from being learned by an unauthorized entity.

   That said, having the location URI does not mean an unauthorized 
   entity has the location of a client.  The location URI still needs 
   to be dereferenced to learn the location of the client.  This 
   dereferencing function, which is not done using DHCP, is done by 
   requesting the location record at a Location Server, which can 
   challenge each request it receives based on the policy provided by 
   the Ruleholder.  The Ruleholder, as defined in RFC 3693, configures 
   the authentication and authorization policies for the location 
   revelation of a Target.  This includes giving out more or less 
   precise location information in a response, therefore it can answer 
   a bad-hat, but not allow it from learning exactly where a client is.

   Penetrating an LS is supposed to be hard, and hopefully vendors that
   implement an LS accomplish this goal.

   As to the concerns about the location URI itself, as stated in the 
   document here (in Section 3), it MUST NOT have any user identifying
   information in the URI user-part/string itself.  The location URI 
   also needs to be hard to guess that it belongs to a specific user.  

   When implementing a DHC server that will serve clients across an 
   uncontrolled network, one should consider the potential security 
   risks therein.
