1.  Introduction

   DHCPv4 [RFC2131], DHCPv6 [RFC3646], and IPv6 Router Announcements
   [RFC8106] all provide means to inform clients of available resolvers
   using the incumbent DNS protocol for querying, however there is no
   means of specifying alternate protocols to perform DNS queries.

2.  Conventions and Definitions

   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 in BCP
   14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all
   capitals, as shown here.

3.  The DoH Option

   The DoH DHCP/RA option informs the client that a DoH service is
   available for use for answering DNS queries.  In order to support
   multiple "classes" of clients, the network operator can provide the
   URI template [RFC6570] which describes how a client can construct the
   URL to use for resolution.  Whilst DoH servers may support multiple
   URI Templates, only one template MUST be transmitted.

   URI Templates that contain a host name SHOULD only be sent where a
   DHCP server or Router provide name servers, as name resolution of any
   host name in the template will require clients to use the non-DoH
   servers provided or manual configuration.  URI Templates that are
   over 255 bytes in length MUST implement long option encoding as
   defined in [RFC3396].

Internet-Draft   DoH using DHCP or Router Advertisements    October 2019


3.1.  IPv4 DHCP Option

   The format of the IPv4 DoH DHCP option is shown below.

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

   Code:  The DoH DHCPv4 option (one octet).

   Length:  The length, in octets of the URI template.

      of [RFC3986].

3.2.  IPv6 DHCP Option

   The format of the IPv6 DHCP option is shown below.

    0                   1                   2                   3

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

   option-code:  TODO (two octets)

   option-len:  The length, in octects of the URI Template.

   URI Template:  The DoH server

3.3.  The DoH IPv6 RA Option

   The format of the DoH Router Advertisement option is shown below.

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

   Type:  TODO (one octet)

   Length:  8-bit unsigned integer representing the entire length of all
      fields, in units of 8 bytes.

   URI Template:  The DoH server available for use.  This should be
      padded with NULL (0x0) to make the total option length (including
      the Type and Length fields) a multiple of 8 bytes.

4.  Security Considerations

   An attacker with the ability to inject DHCP messages could include
   this option and present a malicious resolver.

   TODO: Further risk and threat assessments.

5.  IANA Considerations

   TODO: This section must be updated after assignments have been
   issued.

   This document requires the assignment of an option code assigned
   under the "BOOTP Vendor Extensions and DHCP Options"
   [bootp-registry], in addition to an option code assigned under the
   "Option Codes" registry under DHCPv6 parameters [dhcpv6-registry].

   Also, an assignment for an IPv6 RA Option Type from the "IPv6
   Neighbor Discovery Option Formats" registry under ICMPv6 paramters
   [icmpv6-registry].
