Table of Contents

1. Introduction

This document describes an extension mapping for version 1.0 of the Extensible Provisioning Protocol (EPP). This document describes a Domain Name Registry Mapping, referred to as Registry Mapping, for the Extensible Provisioning Protocol (EPP). A Domain Name Registry can service one or more registry zones (e.g. top-level domains) with a variety of supported services and policies. A registry zone, also referred to as a "zone" in this document, is a domain name that the Domain Name Registry supports provisioning operations to manage. The registry zone and the associated DNS zone has an overlapping data set, where the registry zone is the source for the generation of a DNS zone. A registry zone is typically a top-level domain name, but it can be a domain name at any domain name level. A registry zone can be the source for multiple resolution services like DNS and WHOIS.

This mapping enables the provisioning of the features and policies of the registry zones in the Domain Name Registry. A Domain Name Registry MAY support a subset of all of the commands defined in this mapping and can authorize different clients to execute specific commands. For example, all clients may be capable of executing the EPP Query Commands, while internal clients or pre-defined external clients may be capable of executing the EPP Transform Commands for a specific set of zones. It is up to server policy to define what clients are authorized to execute which commands on which registry zones. The server policy can be defined out-of-band or in a seperate EPP extension.

1.1. Conventions Used in This Document

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 RFC 2119.

XML is case sensitive. Unless stated otherwise, XML specifications and examples provided in this document MUST be interpreted in the character case presented in order to develop a conforming implementation.

In examples, "C:" represents lines sent by a protocol client and "S:" represents lines returned by a protocol server. Indentation and white space in examples are provided only to illustrate element relationships and are not a REQUIRED feature of this protocol.

The XML namespace prefix "registry" is used for the namespace "urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:registry-0.1", but implementations MUST NOT depend on it and instead employ a proper namespace-aware XML parser and serializer to interpret and output the XML documents.

2. Object Attributes

An EPP registry object has attributes and associated values that may be viewed and modified by the sponsoring client or the server. This section describes each attribute type in detail. The formal syntax for the attribute values described here can be found in the "Formal Syntax" section of this document and in the appropriate normative references.

2.1. Zone Name

The zone name is an element that includes an optional "form" attribute that defines the form of the zone name as either "aLabel" or "uLabel", with the default value of "aLabel". The "aLabel" form of a zone name contains all ASCII name labels that conform to [RFC0952] and [RFC1123]. The "uLabel" form of a zone name that includes one or more non-ASCII name labels that can be represented as ASCII labels using [RFC5890].

At the time of this writing, [RFC5890] describes a standard to use certain ASCII name labels to represent non-ASCII name labels. These conformance requirements might change in the future as a result of progressing work in developing standards for internationalized names.

2.2. Dates and Times

Date and time attribute values MUST be represented in Universal Coordinated Time (UTC) using the Gregorian calendar. The extended date-time form using upper case "T" and "Z" characters defined in XML Schema Part 2 MUST be used to represent date-time values, as XML Schema does not support truncated date-time forms or lower case "T" and "Z" characters.

2.3. Schedule

A schedule is defined using the <registry:schedule> element, in the time zone represented by the OPTIONAL "tz" attribute with the default of "UTC", and containing the first five crontab entry columns with the format:

*     *     *   *    *        
-     -     -   -    -
|     |     |   |    |
|     |     |   |    +----- day of week (0 - 6) (Sunday=0)
|     |     |   +------- month (1 - 12)
|     |     +--------- day of month (1 - 31)
|     +----------- hour (0 - 23)
+------------- min (0 - 59)

* indicates any legal value
A column can include a list of in range values seperated by commas, 
as in 2,14 "hour" for 2 AM and 2 PM.  
A column can include an inclusive range of values using two values 
seperated by a hyphen, as in (1-5) "day of week" for weekdays.   

Example schedule of a batch job that executes at 2 PM Eastern time zone:

<registry:batchJob>
  <registry:name>pendingDelete</registry:name>
  <registry:description>Pending Delete Batch
  </registry:description>
  <registry:schedule tz="EST5EDT">0 14 * * *
  </registry:schedule>
</registry:batchJob>

3. EPP Command Mapping

A detailed description of the EPP syntax and semantics can be found in the EPP core protocol specification [RFC5730]. The command mappings described here are specifically for use in provisioning and managing TLD names via EPP.

3.1. EPP Query Commands

EPP provides three commands to retrieve object information: <check> to determine if an object is known to the server, <info> to retrieve detailed information associated with an object, and <transfer> to retrieve object transfer status information.

3.1.1. EPP <check> Command

The EPP <check> command is used to determine if the server currently supports a zone. If the response indicates that the zone is not available, then it is currently supported; otherwise it MAY be available to be created by an authorized client.

In addition to the standard EPP command elements, the <check> command MUST contain a <registry:check> element that identifies the registry namespace. The <registry:check> element contains the following child elements:

<registry:name>:
One or more <registry:name> elements, as described in Section 2.1, that contain the fully qualified names of the zone objects to be queried.

Example <check> command:

C:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
C:<epp xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:epp-1.0">
C:  <command>
C:    <check>
C:      <registry:check
C:       xmlns:registry="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:registry-0.1">
C:        <registry:name>zone1</registry:name>
C:        <registry:name>zone2</registry:name>
C:        <registry:name>zone3</registry:name>
C:      </registry:check>
C:    </check>
C:    <clTRID>ABC-12345</clTRID>
C:  </command>
C:</epp>

When a <check> command has been processed successfully, the EPP <resData> element MUST contain a child <registry:chkData> element that identifies the registry namespace. The <registry:chkData> element contains one or more <registry:cd> elements that contain the following child elements:

<registry:name>:
element that contains the fully qualified name of the queried zone object, as described in Section 2.1. This element MUST contain an "avail" attribute whose value indicates zone is currently supported or availability at the moment the <check> command was completed for an authorized client. A value of "1" or "true" means that the zone object is available for an authorized client. A value of "0" or "false" means that the zone object is currently supported by the server.
<registry:reason>:
The OPTIONAL element that MAY be provided when a zone object is not available for provisioning. If present, this element contains server-specific text to help explain why the zone object is unavailable. This text MUST be represented in the response language previously negotiated with the client; an OPTIONAL "lang" attribute MAY be present to identify the language if the negotiated value is something other than a default value of "en" (English).

Example <check> response:

S:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
S:<epp xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:epp-1.0">
S:  <response>
S:    <result code="1000">
S:      <msg>Command completed successfully</msg>
S:    </result>
S:    <resData>
S:      <registry:chkData
S:        xmlns:registry=
S:        "urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:registry-0.1">
S:        <registry:cd>
S:          <registry:name avail="0">zone1</registry:name>
S:          <registry:reason>Client not authorized
S:          </registry:reason>
S:        </registry:cd>
S:        <registry:cd>
S:          <registry:name avail="0">zone2
S:          </registry:name>
S:          <registry:reason>Already supported
S:          </registry:reason>
S:        </registry:cd>
S:        <registry:cd>
S:          <registry:name avail="1">zone3
S:          </registry:name>
S:        </registry:cd>
S:      </registry:chkData>
S:    </resData>
S:    <trID>
S:      <clTRID>ABC-12345</clTRID>
S:      <svTRID>54322-XYZ</svTRID>
S:    </trID>
S:  </response>
S:</epp>

An EPP error response MUST be returned if a <check> command cannot be processed for any reason.

3.1.2. EPP <info> Command

The EPP <info> command is used to retrieve information associated with a zone object. The response to this command MAY vary depending on the identity of the querying client, use of authorization information, and server policy towards unauthorized clients. Server policy determines which OPTIONAL elements are returned.

In addition to the standard EPP command elements, the <info> command MUST contain a <registry:info> element that identifies the registry namespace. The <registry:info> element contains one of the following three child elements:

<registry:all>:
Element that is empty and that indicates that a list of all of the supported zone objects are queried with a summary set of attributes per zone object.
<registry:name>:
Element that contains the fully qualified name of the zone object, as described in Section 2.1, to be queried for a full set of attributes for the zone object.
<registry:system>:
Element that is empty and that indicates that the registry system attributes, like maximum connections and timeouts, are queried.

Example <info> command to query for a summary set of attributes for all of the supported zone objects:

C:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
C:<epp xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:epp-1.0">
C:  <command>
C:    <info>
C:      <registry:info
C:        xmlns:registry="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:registry-0.1">
C:        <registry:all/>
C:      </registry:info>
C:    </info>
C:    <clTRID>ABC-12345</clTRID>
C:  </command>
C:</epp>

Example <info> command to query for the full set of "zone1" zone object attributes:

C:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
C:<epp xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:epp-1.0">
C:  <command>
C:    <info>
C:      <registry:info
C:        xmlns:registry="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:registry-0.1">
C:        <registry:name>zone1</registry:name>
C:      </registry:info>
C:    </info>
C:    <clTRID>ABC-12345</clTRID>
C:  </command>
C:</epp>

Example <info> command to query for registry system attributes:

C:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
C:<epp xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:epp-1.0">
C:  <command>
C:    <info>
C:      <registry:info
C:        xmlns:registry="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:registry-0.1">
C:        <registry:system/>
C:      </registry:info>
C:    </info>
C:    <clTRID>ABC-12345</clTRID>
C:  </command>
C:</epp>

When an <info> command has been processed successfully, the EPP <resData> element MUST contain a child <registry:infData> element that identifies the registry namespace. The <registry:infData> element contains one of the three following child elements:

<registry:zoneList>:
Element that contains the list of supported zones by the server with a set of summary attributes per zone. The <registry:zoneList> element contains the following child elements:
<registry:name>:
Element that contains the fully qualified name of the queried zone object, as described in Section 2.1.
<registry:crDate>:
The date and time of zone object creation.
<registry:upDate>:
The OPTIONAL date and time of the most recent zone object modification. This element MUST NOT be present if the zone object has never been modified.
or a <registry:zone>:
Element that contains the full set of attributes for the zone name as defined in Section 2.4.
<registry:system>:
Element that contains registry system attributes. The <registry:system> element contains the following child elements:
<registry:maxConnections>:
The OPTIONAL element that contains the maximum number of connections that the client can establish with the registry system.
<registry:idleTimeout>:
The OPTIONAL element that contains the idle timeout for a connection in milliseconds. If a connection does not receive a command within <registry:idleTimeout> milliseconds, the server will close the connection.
<registry:absoluteTimeout>:
The OPTIONAL element that contains the absolute timeout for a connection in milliseconds. The absolute timeout represents the maximum duration in milliseconds that a connection can be established. The server will close a connection that has been established for more than <registry:absoluteTimeout> milliseconds.
<registry:commandTimeout>:
The OPTIONAL element that contains the command timeout for a connection in milliseconds. The server will close a connection that has an active command that exceeds <registry:commandTimeout> milliseconds.
<registry:transLimit>:
The OPTIONAL element that contains the maximum number of transactions that can be submitted on the connection per the "perMs" attribute milliseconds. It is up to server policy what to do with the connection when the client exceeds the <registry:transLimit>.

Example <info> response to a query for a summary of all of the supported zone objects:

An EPP error response MUST be returned if an <info> command cannot be processed for any reason.

3.1.3. EPP <transfer> Query Command

Transfer semantics do not directly apply to zone objects, so there is no mapping defined for the EPP <transfer> query command.

3.2. EPP Transform Commands

EPP provides five commands to transform objects: <create> to create an instance of an object, <delete> to delete an instance of an object, <renew> to extend the validity period of an object, <transfer> to manage object sponsorship changes, and <update> to change information associated with an object.

3.2.1. EPP <create> Command

The EPP <create> command provides a transform operation that allows a client to create a zone object. In addition to the standard EPP command elements, the <create> command MUST contain a <registry:create> element that identifies the registry namespace. The <registry:create> element contains the following child elements:

<registry:zone>:
Element that contains the full set of attributes for the zone to create, as defined in Section 2.4.

Example <create> command:

C:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
C:<epp xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:epp-1.0"
C:  xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
C:  <command>
C:    <create>
C:      <registry:create
C:        xmlns:registry="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:registry-0.1">
C:        <registry:zone>
C:          <registry:name>EXAMPLE</registry:name>
C:          ...
C:        </registry:zone>
C:      </registry:create>
C:    </create>
C:    <clTRID>ABC-12345</clTRID>
C:  </command>
C:</epp>

When a <create> command has been processed successfully, the EPP <resData> element MUST contain a child <registry:creData> element that identifies the registry namespace. The <registry:creData> element contains the following child elements:

<registry:name>:
element that contains the fully qualified name of the zone object, as described in Section 2.1.
<registry:crDate>:
element that contains the date and time of zone object creation.

Example <create> response:

S:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
S:<epp xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:epp-1.0">
S:  <response>
S:    <result code="1000">
S:      <msg>Command completed successfully</msg>
S:    </result>
S:    <resData>
S:      <registry:creData
S:        xmlns:registry="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:registry-0.1">
S:        <registry:name>zone1</registry:name>
S:        <registry:crDate>2012-10-30T22:00:00.0Z
S:        </registry:crDate>
S:      </registry:creData>
S:    </resData>
S:    <trID>
S:      <clTRID>ABC-12345</clTRID>
S:      <svTRID>54321-XYZ</svTRID>
S:    </trID>
S:  </response>
S:</epp>

An EPP error response MUST be returned if a <create> command can not be processed for any reason.

3.2.2. EPP <delete> Command

The EPP <delete> command provides a transform operation that allows a client to delete a zone object. In addition to the standard EPP command elements, the <delete> command MUST contain a <registry:delete> element that identifies the registry namespace. The <registry:delete> element contains the following child elements:

<registry:name>:
element that contains the fully qualified name of the zone object to be deleted, as described in Section 2.1.

Example <delete> command:

C:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
C:<epp xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:epp-1.0">
C:  <command>
C:    <delete>
C:      <registry:delete
C:        xmlns:registry="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:registry-0.1">
C:        <registry:name>EXAMPLE</registry:name>
C:      </registry:delete>
C:    </delete>
C:    <clTRID>ABC-12345</clTRID>
C:  </command>
C:</epp>

When a <delete> zone has been processed successfully, a server MUST respond with an EPP response with no <resData> element.

Example <delete> response:

S:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
S:<epp xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:epp-1.0">
S:  <response>
S:    <result code="1000">
S:      <msg>Command completed successfully</msg>
S:    </result>
S:    <trID>
S:      <clTRID>ABC-12345</clTRID>
S:      <svTRID>54321-XYZ</svTRID>
S:    </trID>
S:  </response>
S:</epp>

An EPP error response MUST be returned if a <delete> command can not be processed for any reason.

3.2.3. EPP <renew> Command

Renew semantics do not directly apply to zone objects, so there is no mapping defined for the EPP <renew> command.

3.2.4. EPP <transfer> Command

Transfer semantics do not directly apply to zone objects, so there is no mapping defined for the EPP <transfer> command.

3.2.5. EPP <update> Command

The EPP <update> command provides a transform operation that allows a client to modify the attributes of a zone object. In addition to the standard EPP command elements, the <update> command MUST contain a <registry:update> element that identifies the registry namespace. The <registry:update> element contains the following child elements:

<registry:zone>:
One or more elements that contain the full set of attributes for the zones as defined in Section 2.4. The update completely replaces the prior version of the zone.

Example <update> command:

C:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
C:<epp xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:epp-1.0">
C:  <command>
C:    <update>
C:      <registry:update
C:        xmlns:registry="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:registry-0.1">
C:        <registry:zone>
C:          <registry:name>EXAMPLE</registry:name>
C:          ...
C:        </registry:zone>
C:      </registry:update>
C:    </update>
C:    <clTRID>ABC-12345</clTRID>
C:  </command>
C:</epp>

When an <update> command has been processed successfully, a server MUST respond with an EPP response with no <resData> element.

Example <update> command:

S:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
S:<epp xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:epp-1.0">
S:  <response>
S:    <result code="1000">
S:      <msg>Command completed successfully</msg>
S:    </result>
S:    <trID>
S:      <clTRID>ABC-12345</clTRID>
S:      <svTRID>54321-XYZ</svTRID>
S:    </trID>
S:  </response>
S:</epp>

An EPP error response MUST be returned if an <update> command can not be processed for any reason.

4. Formal Syntax

One schema is presented here that is the EPP Registry Mapping Schema.

The formal syntax presented here is a complete schema representation of the object mapping suitable for automated validation of EPP XML instances. The BEGIN and END tags are not part of the schema; they are used to note the beginning and ending of the schema for URI registration purposes.

5. IANA Considerations

5.1. XML Namespace

This document uses URNs to describe XML namespaces and XML schemas conforming to a registry mechanism described in [RFC3688].

Registration request for the registry namespace:

Registration request for the registry XML schema:

5.2. EPP Extension Registry

The EPP extension described in this document should be registered by the IANA in the EPP Extension Registry described in [RFC7451]. The details of the registration are as follows:

Name of Extension: "Registry Mapping for the Extensible Provisioning Protocol (EPP)"

Document status: Standards Track

Reference: (insert reference to RFC version of this document)

Registrant Name and Email Address: IESG, <iesg@ietf.org>

TLDs: Any

IPR Disclosure: TBD

Status: Active

Notes: None

6. Implementation Status

Note to RFC Editor: Please remove this section and the reference to RFC 7942 before publication.

This section records the status of known implementations of the protocol defined by this specification at the time of posting of this Internet-Draft, and is based on a proposal described in RFC 7942. The description of implementations in this section is intended to assist the IETF in its decision processes in progressing drafts to RFCs. Please note that the listing of any individual implementation here does not imply endorsement by the IETF. Furthermore, no effort has been spent to verify the information presented here that was supplied by IETF contributors. This is not intended as, and must not be construed to be, a catalog of available implementations or their features. Readers are advised to note that other implementations may exist.

According to RFC 7942, "this will allow reviewers and working groups to assign due consideration to documents that have the benefit of running code, which may serve as evidence of valuable experimentation and feedback that have made the implemented protocols more mature. It is up to the individual working groups to use this information as they see fit".

6.1. Verisign EPP SDK

Organization: Verisign Inc.

Name: Verisign EPP SDK

Description: The Verisign EPP SDK includes both a full client implementation and a full server stub implementation of draft-gould-carney-regext-registry.

Level of maturity: Development

Coverage: All aspects of the protocol are implemented.

Licensing: GNU Lesser General Public License

Contact: jgould@verisign.com

URL: https://www.verisign.com/en_US/channel-resources/domain-registry-products/epp-sdks

7. Security Considerations

The mapping extensions described in this document do not provide any security services beyond those described by EPP and protocol layers used by EPP. The security considerations described in these other specifications apply to this specification as well.

Appendix A. Change History

A.1. Change from 00 to 01

  1. Added missing description of the "perRegistrar" value for the <registry:external> <registry:sharePolicy> element.
  2. Revised the description of <registry:emailRegex> to be a single optional element instead of an optional list of elements to match the definition in the XML schema.

A.2. Change from 01 to 02

  1. Removed the unneeded zoneMemberType from the XML schema.
  2. Added reference to the Zone Name section for the <registry:name> elements, since they use the XML schema zoneFormType that supports the "form" attribute with the default value of "aLabel".
  3. Made the zoneType crDate element optional to support sending the zone on a create command without the crDate being set by the client.
  4. Updated the Implementation Status section to include the leading paragraphs and to include the "Verisign EPP SDK" sub-section.
