The edns-tcp-keepalive EDNS0 Option
draft-ietf-dnsop-edns-tcp-keepalive-06
Abstract
DNS messages between clients and servers may be received over either
UDP or TCP. UDP transport involves keeping less state on a busy
server, but can cause truncation and retries over TCP. Additionally,
UDP can be exploited for reflection attacks. Using TCP would reduce
retransmits and amplification. However, clients commonly use TCP
only for retries and servers typically use idle timeouts on the order
of seconds.
This document defines an EDNS0 option ("edns-tcp-keepalive") that
allows DNS servers to signal a variable idle timeout. This
signalling encourages the use of long-lived TCP connections by
allowing the state associated with TCP transport to be managed
effectively with minimal impact on the DNS transaction time.

1. Introduction
DNS messages between clients and servers may be received over either
UDP or TCP [RFC1035]. Historically, DNS clients used API's that only
facilitated sending and receiving a single query over either UDP or
TCP. New APIs and deployment of DNSSEC validating resolvers on hosts
that in the past were using stub resolving only is increasing the DNS
client base that prefer using long lived TCP connections. Long-lived
TCP connections can result in lower request latency than the case
where UDP transport is used and truncated responses are received.
This is because clients that retry over TCP following a truncated UDP
response typically only use the TCP session for a single (request,
response) pair, continuing with UDP transport for subsequent queries.
The use of TCP transport requires state to be retained on DNS
servers. If a server is to perform adequately with a significant
query load received over TCP, it must manage its available resources
to ensure that all established TCP sessions are well-used, and idle
connections are closed after an appropriate amount of time.
UDP transport is stateless, and hence presents a much lower resource
burden on a busy DNS server than TCP. An exchange of DNS messages
over UDP can also be completed in a single round trip between
communicating hosts, resulting in optimally-short transaction times.
UDP transport is not without its risks, however.
A single-datagram exchange over UDP between two hosts can be
exploited to enable a reflection attack on a third party. Response
Rate Limiting [RRL] is designed to help mitigate such attacks against
authoritative-only servers. One feature of RRL is to let some amount
of responses "slip" through the rate limiter. These are returned
with the TC (truncation) bit set, which causes legitimate clients to
re-query using TCP transport.
[RFC1035] specified a maximum DNS message size over UDP transport of
512 bytes. Deployment of DNSSEC [RFC4033] and other protocols
subsequently increased the observed frequency at which responses
exceed this limit. EDNS0 [RFC6891] allows DNS messages larger than
512 bytes to be exchanged over UDP, with a corresponding increased
incidence of fragmentation. Fragmentation is known to be problematic
in general, and has also been implicated in increasing the risk of
cache poisoning attacks [fragmentation-considered-poisonous].
TCP transport is less susceptible to the risks of fragmentation and
reflection attacks. However, TCP transport for DNS as currently
Wouters, et al. Expires August 25, 2016 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft The edns-tcp-keepalive EDNS0 Option February 2016
deployed has expensive setup overhead, compared to using UDP (when no
retry is required).
The overhead of the three-way TCP handshake for a single DNS
transaction is substantial, increasing the transaction time for a
single (request, response) pair of DNS messages from 1 x RTT to 2 x
RTT. There is no such overhead for a session that is already
established therefore the overhead of the initial TCP handshake is
minimised when the resulting session is used to exchange multiple DNS
message pairs over a single session. The extra RTT time for session
setup can be represented as the equation (1 + N)/N, where N
represents the number of DNS message pairs that utilize the session
and the result approaches unity as N increases.
With increased deployment of DNSSEC and new RRtypes containing
application specific cryptographic material, there is an increase in
the prevalence of truncated responses received over UDP with retries
over TCP. The overhead for a DNS transaction over UDP truncated due
to RRL is 3x RTT, higher than the overhead imposed on the same
transaction initiated over TCP.
This document proposes a signalling mechanism between DNS clients and
servers that encourages the use of long-lived TCP connections by
allowing the state associated with TCP transport to be managed
effectively with minimal impact on the DNS transaction time.
This mechanism will be of benefit both for stub-resolver and
resolver-authoritative TCP connections. In the latter case the
persistent nature of the TCP connection can provide improved defence
against attacks including DDoS.
The reduced overhead of this extension adds up significantly when
combined with other EDNS0 extensions, such as [CHAIN-QUERY] and
[DNS-over-TLS]. For example, the combination of these EDNS0
extensions make it possible for hosts on high-latency mobile networks
to natively and efficiently perform DNSSEC validation and encrypt
queries.

3. The edns-tcp-keepalive Option
This document specifies a new EDNS0 [RFC6891] option, edns-tcp-
keepalive, which can be used by DNS clients and servers to signal a
willingness to keep an idle TCP session open to conduct future DNS
transactions, with the idle timeout being specified by the server.
This specification does not distinguish between different types of
DNS client and server in the use of this option.
[DRAFT-5966bis] defines an 'idle' DNS-over-TCP session from both the
client and server perspective. The idle timeout described here
begins when the idle condition is met per that definition and should
be reset when that condition is lifted i.e. when a client sends a
message or when a server receives a message on an idle connection.
3.1. Option Format
The edns-tcp-keepalive option is encoded as follows:
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
+-------------------------------+-------------------------------+
! OPTION-CODE ! OPTION-LENGTH !
+-------------------------------+-------------------------------+
| TIMEOUT !
+-------------------------------+
where:
OPTION-CODE: the EDNS0 option code assigned to edns-tcp-keepalive,
TBD1
OPTION-LENGTH: the value 0 if the TIMEOUT is omitted, the value 2
if it is present;
TIMEOUT: an idle timeout value for the TCP connection, specified in
units of 100 milliseconds, encoded in network byte order.
3.2. Use by DNS Clients
3.2.1. Sending Queries
DNS clients MUST NOT include the edns-tcp-keepalive option in queries
sent using UDP transport.
DNS clients MAY include the edns-tcp-keepalive option in the first
query sent to a server using TCP transport to signal their desire to
keep the connection open when idle.
Wouters, et al. Expires August 25, 2016 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft The edns-tcp-keepalive EDNS0 Option February 2016
DNS clients MAY include the edns-tcp-keepalive option in subsequent
queries sent to a server using TCP transport to signal their
continued desire to keep the connection open when idle.
Clients MUST specify an OPTION-LENGTH of 0 and omit the TIMEOUT
value.
3.2.2. Receiving Responses
A DNS client that receives a response using UDP transport that
includes the edns-tcp-keepalive option MUST ignore the option.
A DNS client that receives a response using TCP transport that
includes the edns-tcp-keepalive option MAY keep the existing TCP
session open when it is idle. It SHOULD honour the timeout received
in that response (overriding any previous timeout) and initiate close
of the connection before the timeout expires.
A DNS client that receives a response that includes the edns-tcp-
keepalive option with a TIMEOUT value of 0 SHOULD send no more
queries on that connection and initiate closing the connection as
soon as it has received all outstanding responses.
A DNS client that sent a query containing the edns-keepalive-option
but receives a response that does not contain the edns-keepalive-
option SHOULD assume the server does not support keepalive and behave
following the guidance in [DRAFT-5966bis]. This holds true even if a
previous edns-keepalive-option exchange occurred on the existing TCP
connection.
3.3. Use by DNS Servers
3.3.1. Receiving Queries
A DNS server that receives a query using UDP transport that includes
the edns-tcp-keepalive option MUST ignore the option.
A DNS server that receives a query using TCP transport that includes
the edns-tcp-keepalive option MAY modify the local idle timeout
associated with that TCP session if resources permit.
3.3.2. Sending Responses
A DNS server that receives a query sent using TCP transport that
includes an OPT RR (with or without the edns-tcp-keepalive option)
MAY include the edns-tcp-keepalive option in the response to signal
the expected idle timeout on a connection. Servers MUST specify the
TIMEOUT value that is currently associated with the TCP session. It
Wouters, et al. Expires August 25, 2016 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft The edns-tcp-keepalive EDNS0 Option February 2016
is reasonable for this value to change according to local resource
constraints. The DNS server SHOULD send a edns-tcp-keepalive option
with a timeout of 0 if it deems its local resources are too low to
service more TCP keepalive sessions, or if it wants clients to close
currently open connections.
3.4. TCP Session Management
Both DNS clients and servers are subject to resource constraints
which will limit the extent to which TCP sessions can persist.
Effective limits for the number of active sessions that can be
maintained on individual clients and servers should be established,
either as configuration options or by interrogation of process limits
imposed by the operating system. Servers that implement edns-tcp-
keepalive should also engage in TCP connection management by
recycling existing connections when appropriate, closing connections
gracefully and managing request queues to enable fair use.
In the event that there is greater demand for TCP sessions than can
be accommodated, servers may reduce the TIMEOUT value signalled in
successive DNS messages to minimise idle time on existing sessions.
This also allows, for example, clients with other candidate servers
to query to establish new TCP sessions with different servers in
expectation that an existing session is likely to be closed, or to
fall back to UDP.
Based on TCP session resources servers may signal a TIMEOUT value of
0 to request clients to close connections as soon as possible. This
is useful when server resources become very low or a denial-of-
service attack is detected and further maximises the shifting of
TIME_WAIT state to well-behaved clients.
However it should be noted that RCF6891 states:
Lack of presence of an OPT record in a request MUST be taken as an
indication that the requestor does not implement any part of this
specification and that the responder MUST NOT include an OPT
record in its response.
Since servers must be faithful to this specification even on a
persistent TCP connection it means that (following the initial
exchange of timeouts) a server may not be presented with the
opportunity to signal a change in the idle timeout associated with a
connection if the client does not send any further requests
containing EDNS0 OPT RRs. This limitation makes persistent
connection handling via an initial idle timeout signal more
attractive than a mechanism that establishes default persistence and
Wouters, et al. Expires August 25, 2016 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft The edns-tcp-keepalive EDNS0 Option February 2016
then uses a connection close signal (in a similar manner to HTTP 1.1
[RFC7320]).
If a client includes the edns-tcp-keepalive option in the first
query, it SHOULD include an EDNS0 OPT RR periodically in any further
messages it sends during the TCP session. This will increase the
chance of the client being notified should the server modify the
timeout associated with a session. The algorithm for choosing when
to do this is out of scope of this document and is left up to the
implementor and/or operator.
DNS clients and servers MAY close a TCP session at any time in order
to manage local resource constraints. The algorithm by which clients
and servers rank active TCP sessions in order to determine which to
close is not specified in this document.
3.5. Non-Clean Paths
Many paths between DNS clients and servers suffer from poor hygiene,
limiting the free flow of DNS messages that include particular EDNS0
options, or messages that exceed a particular size. A fallback
strategy similar to that described in [RFC6891] section 6.2.2 SHOULD
be employed to avoid persistent interference due to non-clean paths.
3.6. Anycast Considerations
DNS servers of various types are commonly deployed using anycast
[RFC4786].
Changes in network topology between clients and anycast servers may
cause disruption to TCP sessions making use of edns-tcp-keepalive
more often than with TCP sessions that omit it, since the TCP
sessions are expected to be longer-lived. It might be possible for
anycast servers to avoid disruption due to topology changes by making
use of TCP multipath [RFC6824] to anchor the server side of the TCP
connection to an unambiguously-unicast address.
4. Intermediary Considerations
It is RECOMMENDED that DNS intermediaries which terminate TCP
connections implement edns-tcp-keepalive. An intermediary that does
not implement edns-tcp-keepalive but sits between a client and server
that both support edns-tcp-keepalive might close idle connections
unnecessarily.
Wouters, et al. Expires August 25, 2016 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft The edns-tcp-keepalive EDNS0 Option February 2016
5. Security Considerations
The edns-tcp-keepalive option can potentially be abused to request
large numbers of long-lived sessions in a quick burst. When a DNS
Server detects abusive behaviour, it SHOULD immediately close the TCP
connection and free the resources used.
Servers could choose to monitor client behaviour with respect to the
edns-tcp-keepalive option to build up profiles of clients that do not
honour the specified timeout.
Readers are advised to familiarise themselves with the security
considerations outlined in [DRAFT-5966bis]
6. IANA Considerations
The IANA is directed to assign an EDNS0 option code for the edns-tcp-
keepalive option from the DNS EDNS0 Option Codes (OPT) registry as
follows:
+-------+--------------------+----------+-----------------+
| Value | Name | Status | Reference |
+-------+--------------------+----------+-----------------+
| TBD1 | edns-tcp-keepalive | Standard | [This document] |
+-------+--------------------+----------+-----------------+

Wouters, et al. Expires August 25, 2016 [Page 12]
Internet-Draft The edns-tcp-keepalive EDNS0 Option February 2016
Changed semantics so the client no longer sends a timeout. The
client timeout is of limited value as servers should be managing
connections based on their view of their resources, not on client
requests as this is open to abuse. Additionally this identifies
cases were the option is simply being reflected back.
Changed semantics for the meaning of a server sending a timeout of 0.
The maximum timeout value of 6553.5s (~1.8h) is already large and a
distinct 'connection close'-like signal is potentially more useful.

keepalive in terms of resource and connection management.
Added discussion of EDNS0 per-message limitation and implications of
this.
Added reference to STARTTLS draft and RFC7320.
