Abstract

This document describes the representation of identity information in
POLICY_DATA object for supporting policy based admission control in
the Resource ReSerVation Protocol (RSVP). The goal of identity
representation is to allow a process on a system to securely identify
the owner and the application of the communicating process (e.g.,
user id) and convey this information in RSVP messages (PATH or RESV)
in a secure manner. We describe the encoding of identities as RSVP
policy element. We describe the processing rules to generate
identity policy elements for multicast merged flows. Subsequently,
we describe representations of user identities for Kerberos and
Public Key based user authentication mechanisms. In summary, we
describe the use of this identity information in an operational
setting.

This memo corrects an RSVP POLICY_DATA P-Type codepoint assignment
error and a field size definition error in ErrorValue in RFC 2752.

2. Introduction

RSVP [RFC 2205] is a resource reservation setup protocol designed for
an integrated services Internet [RFC 1633]. RSVP is used by a host
to request specific quality of service (QoS) from the network for
particular application data streams or flows. RSVP is also used by
routers to deliver QoS requests to all nodes along the path(s) of the
flows and to establish and maintain state to provide the requested
service. RSVP requests will generally result in resources being
reserved in each node along the data path. RSVP allows particular
users to obtain preferential access to network resources, under the
control of an admission control mechanism. Permission to make a
reservation is based both upon the availability of the requested
resources along the path of the data and upon satisfaction of policy
rules. Providing policy based admission control mechanism based on
user identity or application is one of the prime requirements.

In order to solve these problems and implement identity based policy
control it is required to identify the user and/or application making
a RSVP request.

This document proposes a mechanism for sending identification
information in the RSVP messages and enables authorization decisions
based on policy and identity.

We describe the authentication policy element (AUTH_DATA) contained
in the POLICY_DATA object. User process can generate an AUTH_DATA
policy element and gives it to RSVP process (service) on the
originating host. RSVP service inserts AUTH_DATA into the RSVP
message to identify the owner (user and/or application) making the
request for network resources. Network elements, such as routers,
authenticate request using the credentials presented in the AUTH_DATA
and admit the RSVP message based on admission policy. After a
request has been authenticated, first hop router installs the RSVP
state and forwards the new policy element returned by the Policy
Decision Point (PDP) [POL-FRAME].

RFC 3182 Identity Representation for RSVP October 2001

3. Policy Element for Authentication Data

3.1 Policy Data Object Format

POLICY_DATA objects contain policy information and are carried by
RSVP messages. A detail description of the format of POLICY_DATA
object can be found in "RSVP Extensions for Policy Control" [POL-
EXT].

3.2 Authentication Data Policy Element

In this section, we describe a policy element (PE) called
authentication data (AUTH_DATA). AUTH_DATA policy element contains a
list of authentication attributes.

+-------------+-------------+-------------+-------------+
| Length | P-Type = Identity Type |
+-------------+-------------+-------------+-------------+
// Authentication Attribute List //
+-------------------------------------------------------+

Length
The length of the policy element (including the Length and P-Type)
is in number of octets (MUST be a multiple of 4) and indicates the
end of the authentication attribute list.

P-Type (Identity Type)
Type of identity information contained in this Policy Element
supplied as the Policy element type (P-type). The Internet
Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) acts as a registry for policy
element types for identity as described in the [POL-EXT].
Initially, the registry contains the following P-Types for
identity:

2 AUTH_USER Authentication scheme to identify users

3 AUTH_APP Authentication scheme to identify
applications

Authentication Attribute List

Authentication attributes contain information specific to
authentication method and type of AUTH_DATA. The policy element
provides the mechanism for grouping a collection of authentication
attributes.

Yadav, et al. Standards Track [Page 3]

RFC 3182 Identity Representation for RSVP October 2001

3.3 Authentication Attributes

Authentication attributes MUST be encoded as a multiple of 4 octets,
attributes that are not a multiple of 4 octets long MUST be padded to
a 4-octet boundary.

+--------+--------+--------+--------+
| Length | A-Type |SubType |
+--------+--------+--------+--------+
| Value ...
+--------+--------+--------+--------+

Length
The length field is two octets and indicates the actual length of
the attribute (including the Length and A-Type fields) in number
of octets. The length does not include any bytes padding to the
value field to make the attribute multiple of 4 octets long.

A-Type
Authentication attribute type (A-Type) field is one octet. IANA
acts as a registry for A-Types as described in the section 8,
IANA Considerations. Initially, the registry contains the
following A-Types:

1 POLICY_LOCATOR Unique string for locating the
admission policy (such as X.500 DN
described in [RFC 1779]).

2 CREDENTIAL User credential such as Kerberos
ticket, or digital certificate.
Application credential such as
application ID.

3 DIGITAL_SIGNATURE Digital signature of the
authentication data policy element.

4 POLICY_ERROR_OBJECT Detailed information on policy
failures.

SubType
Authentication attribute sub-type field is one octet. Value of
SubType depends on A-type.

Value:
The value field contains the attribute specific information.

Yadav, et al. Standards Track [Page 4]

RFC 3182 Identity Representation for RSVP October 2001

3.3.1 Policy Locator

POLICY_LOCATOR is used to locate the admission policy for the user or
application. Distinguished Name (DN) is unique for each User or
application hence a DN is used as policy locator.

+-------+-------+-------+-------+
| Length |A-Type |SubType|
+-------+-------+-------+-------+
| OctetString ...
+-------+-------+-------+--------

Length
Length of the attribute, which MUST be >= 4.

A-Type
POLICY_LOCATOR

SubType
Following sub types for POLICY_LOCATOR are defined. IANA acts as
a registry for POLICY_LOCATOR sub types as described in the
section 8, IANA Considerations. Initially, the registry contains
the following sub types for POLICY_LOCATOR:

1 ASCII_DN OctetString contains the X.500 DN as
described in the RFC 1779 as an ASCII
string.

2 UNICODE_DN OctetString contains the X.500 DN described
in the RFC 1779 as an UNICODE string.

3 ASCII_DN_ENCRYPT OctetString contains the encrypted X.500
DN. The Kerberos session key or digital
certificate private key is used for
encryption. For Kerberos encryption the
format is the same as returned from
gss_seal [RFC 1509].

4 UNICODE_DN_ENCRYPT OctetString contains the encrypted UNICODE
X.500 DN. The Kerberos session key or
digital certificate private key is used for
encryption. For Kerberos encryption the
format is the same as returned from
gss_seal [RFC 1509].

OctetString
The OctetString field contains the DN.

Yadav, et al. Standards Track [Page 5]

RFC 3182 Identity Representation for RSVP October 2001

3.3.2 Credential

CREDENTIAL indicates the credential of the user or application to be
authenticated. For Kerberos authentication method the CREDENTIAL
object contains the Kerberos session ticket. For public key based
authentication this field contains a digital certificate.

A summary of the CREDENTIAL attribute format is shown below. The
fields are transmitted from left to right.

+-------+-------+-------+-------+
| Length |A-Type |SubType|
+-------+-------+-------+-------+
| OctetString ...
+-------+-------+-------+--------

Length
Length of the attribute, which MUST be >= 4.

A-Type
CREDENTIAL

SubType
IANA acts as a registry for CREDENTIAL sub types as described in
the section 8, IANA Considerations. Initially, the registry
contains the following sub types for CREDENTIAL:

1 ASCII_ID OctetString contains user or application
identification in plain ASCII text string.

2 UNICODE_ID OctetString contains user or application
identification in plain UNICODE text string.

3 KERBEROS_TKT OctetString contains Kerberos ticket.

4 X509_V3_CERT OctetString contains X.509 V3 digital
certificate [X.509].

5 PGP_CERT OctetString contains PGP digital certificate.

OctetString
The OctetString contains the user or application credential.

Yadav, et al. Standards Track [Page 6]

RFC 3182 Identity Representation for RSVP October 2001

3.3.3 Digital Signature

The DIGITAL_SIGNATURE attribute MUST be the last attribute in the
attribute list and contains the digital signature of the AUTH_DATA
policy element. The digital signature signs all data in the
AUTH_DATA policy element up to the DIGITAL_SIGNATURE. The algorithm
used to compute the digital signature depends on the authentication
method specified by the CREDENTIAL SubType field.

A summary of DIGITAL_SIGNATURE attribute format is described below.

+-------+-------+-------+-------+
| Length |A-Type |SubType|
+-------+-------+-------+-------+
| OctetString ...
+-------+-------+-------+--------

Length
Length of the attribute, which MUST be >= 4.

A-Type
DIGITAL_SIGNATURE

SubType
No sub types for DIGITAL_SIGNATURE are currently defined. This
field MUST be set to 0.

OctetString
OctetString contains the digital signature of the AUTH_DATA.

3.3.4 Policy Error Object

This attribute is used to carry any specific policy control errors
generated by a node when processing/validating an Authentication Data
Policy Element. When a RSVP policy node (local policy decision point
or remote PDP) encounters a request that fails policy control due to
its Authentication Policy Element, it SHOULD add a POLICY_ERROR_CODE
containing additional information about the reason the failure
occurred into the policy element. This will then cause an
appropriate PATH_ERROR or RESV_ERROR message to be generated with the
policy element and appropriate RSVP error code in the message, which
is returned to the request's source.

The AUTH_DATA policy element in the PATH or RSVP message SHOULD not
contain the POLICY_ERROR_OBJECT attribute. These are only inserted
into PATH_ERROR and RESV_ERROR messages when generated by policy
aware intermediate nodes.

Yadav, et al. Standards Track [Page 7]

RFC 3182 Identity Representation for RSVP October 2001

+----------+----------+----------+----------+
| Length | A-Type | SubType |
+----------+----------+----------+----------+
| 0 (Reserved) | ErrorValue |
+----------+----------+----------+----------+
| OctetString ...
+----------+----------+----------+----------+

Length
Length of the attribute, which MUST be >= 8.

A-Type
POLICY_ERROR_CODE

SubType
No sub types for POLICY_ERROR_CODE are currently defined. This
field MUST be set to 0.

ErrorValue
A 16-bit bit code containing the reason that the policy decision
point failed to process the policy element. IANA acts as a
registry for ErrorValues as described in section 8, IANA
Considerations. Following values have been defined.

1 ERROR_NO_MORE_INFO No information is available.
2 UNSUPPORTED_CREDENTIAL_TYPE This type of credentials is
not supported.

3 INSUFFICIENT_PRIVILEGES The credentials do not have
sufficient privilege.

4 EXPIRED_CREDENTIAL The credential has expired.

5 IDENTITY_CHANGED Identity has changed.

OctetString
The OctetString field contains information from the policy
decision point that MAY contain additional information about the
policy failure. For example, it may include a human-readable
message in the ASCII text.

4. Authentication Data Formats

Authentication attributes are grouped in a policy element to
represent the identity credentials.

Yadav, et al. Standards Track [Page 8]

RFC 3182 Identity Representation for RSVP October 2001

4.1 Simple User Authentication

In simple user authentication method the user login ID (in plain
ASCII or UNICODE text) is encoded as CREDENTIAL attribute. A summary
of the simple user AUTH_DATA policy element is shown below.

+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+
| Length | P-type = AUTH_USER |
+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+
| Length |POLICY_LOCATOR| SubType |
+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+
| OctetString (User's Distinguished Name) ...
+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+
| Length |CREDENTIAL | ASCII_ID |
+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+
| OctetString (User's login ID) ...
+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+

4.2 Kerberos User Authentication

Kerberos [RFC 1510] authentication uses a trusted third party (the
Kerberos Distribution Center - KDC) to provide for authentication of
the user to a network server. It is assumed that a KDC is present
and both host and verifier of authentication information (router or
PDP) implement Kerberos authentication.

A summary of the Kerberos AUTH_DATA policy element is shown below.

+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+
| Length | P-type = AUTH_USER |
+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+
| Length |POLICY_LOCATOR| SubType |
+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+
| OctetString (User's Distinguished Name) ...
+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+
| Length | CREDENTIAL | KERBEROS_TKT |
+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+
| OctetString (Kerberos Session Ticket) ...
+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+

4.2.1. Operational Setting using Kerberos Identities

An RSVP enabled host is configured to construct and insert AUTH_DATA
policy element into RSVP messages that designate use of the Kerberos
authentication method (KERBEROS_TKT). Upon RSVP session
initialization, the user application contacts the KDC to obtain a
Kerberos ticket for the next network node or its PDP. A router when
generating a RSVP message contacts the KDC to obtain a Kerberos

Yadav, et al. Standards Track [Page 9]

RFC 3182 Identity Representation for RSVP October 2001

ticket for the next hop network node or its PDP. The identity of the
PDP or next network hop can be statically configured, learned via
DHCP or maintained in a directory service. The Kerberos ticket is
sent to the next network node (which may be a router or host) in a
RSVP message. The KDC is used to validate the ticket and
authentication the user sending RSVP message.

4.3 Public Key based User Authentication

In public key based user authentication method digital certificate is
encoded as user credentials. The digital signature is used for
authenticating the user. A summary of the public key user AUTH_DATA
policy element is shown below.

+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+
| Length | P-type = AUTH_USER |
+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+
| Length |POLICY_LOCATOR| SubType |
+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+
| OctetString (User's Distinguished Name) ...
+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+
| Length | CREDENTIAL | SubType |
+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+
| OctetString (User's Digital Certificate) ...
+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+
| Length |DIGITAL_SIGN. | 0 |
+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+
| OctetString (Digital signature) ...
+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+

4.3.1. Operational Setting for public key based authentication

Public key based authentication assumes following:

- RSVP service requestors have a pair of keys (private key and
public key).

- Private key is secured with the user.

- Public keys are stored in digital certificates and a trusted
party, certificate authority (CA) issues these digital
certificates.

- The verifier (PDP or router) has the ability to verify the
digital certificate.

Yadav, et al. Standards Track [Page 10]

RFC 3182 Identity Representation for RSVP October 2001

RSVP requestor uses its private key to generate DIGITAL_SIGNATURE.
User Authenticators (router, PDP) use the user's public key (stored
in the digital certificate) to verify the signature and authenticate
the user.

4.4 Simple Application Authentication

The application authentication method encodes the application
identification such as an executable filename as plain ASCII or
UNICODE text.

+----------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+
| Length | P-type = AUTH_APP |
+----------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+
| Length |POLICY_LOCATOR| SubType |
+----------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+
| OctetString (Application Identity attributes in
| the form of a Distinguished Name) ...
+----------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+
| Length | CREDENTIAL | ASCII_ID |
+----------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+
| OctetString (Application Id, e.g., vic.exe)
+----------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+

Figure 1: User and Application Authentication using AUTH_DATA PE

Network nodes (hosts/routers) generate AUTH_DATA policy elements,
contents of which are depend on the identity type used and the
authentication method used. These generally contain authentication
credentials (Kerberos ticket or digital certificate) and policy
locators (which can be the X.500 Distinguished Name of the user or
network node or application names). Network nodes generate AUTH_DATA
policy element containing the authentication identity when making the
RSVP request or forwarding a RSVP message.

Yadav, et al. Standards Track [Page 11]

RFC 3182 Identity Representation for RSVP October 2001

Network nodes generate user AUTH_DATA policy element using the
following rules:

1. For unicast sessions the user policy locator is copied from the
previous hop. The authentication credentials are for the current
network node identity.

2. For multicast messages the user policy locator is for the current
network node identity. The authentication credentials are for the
current network node.

Network nodes generate application AUTH_DATA policy element using the
following rules:

1. For unicast sessions the application AUTH_DATA is copied from the
previous hop.

2. For multicast messages the application AUTH_DATA is either the
first application AUTH_DATA in the message or chosen by the PDP.

6. Message Processing Rules

6.1 Message Generation (RSVP Host)

An RSVP message is created as specified in [RFC 2205] with following
modifications.

1. RSVP message MAY contain multiple AUTH_DATA policy elements.

2. Authentication policy element (AUTH_DATA) is created and the
IdentityType field is set to indicate the identity type in the
policy element.

- DN is inserted as POLICY_LOCATOR attribute.

- Credentials such as Kerberos ticket or digital certificate are
inserted as the CREDENTIAL attribute.

3. POLICY_DATA object (containing the AUTH_DATA policy element) is
inserted in the RSVP message in appropriate place. If INTEGRITY
object is not computed for the RSVP message then an INTEGRITY
object SHOULD be computed for this POLICY_DATA object, as
described in the [POL_EXT], and SHOULD be inserted as a Policy
Data option.

Yadav, et al. Standards Track [Page 12]

RFC 3182 Identity Representation for RSVP October 2001

6.2 Message Reception (Router)

RSVP message is processed as specified in [RFC 2205] with following
modifications.

1. If router is not policy aware then it SHOULD send the RSVP message
to the PDP and wait for response. If the router is policy unaware
then it ignores the policy data objects and continues processing
the RSVP message.

2. Reject the message if the response from the PDP is negative.

3. Continue processing the RSVP message.

6.3 Authentication (Router/PDP)

1. Retrieve the AUTH_DATA policy element. Check the PE type field
and return an error if the identity type is not supported.

2. Verify user credential

- Simple authentication: e.g., Get user ID and validate it, or
get executable name and validate it.

- Kerberos: Send the Kerberos ticket to the KDC to obtain the
session key. Using the session key authenticate the user.

- Public Key: Validate the certificate that it was issued by a
trusted Certificate Authority (CA) and authenticate the user or
application by verifying the digital signature.

7. Error Signaling

If PDP fails to verify the AUTH_DATA policy element then it MUST
return policy control failure (Error Code = 02) to the PEP. The
error values are described in [RFC 2205] and [POL-EXT]. Also PDP
SHOULD supply a policy data object containing an AUTH_DATA Policy
Element with A-Type=POLICY_ERROR_CODE containing more details on the
Policy Control failure (see section 3.3.4). The PEP will include
this Policy Data object in the outgoing RSVP Error message.

8. IANA Considerations

Following the policies outlined in [IANA-CONSIDERATIONS], Standard
RSVP Policy Elements (P-type values) are assigned by IETF Consensus
action as described in [POL-EXT].

Yadav, et al. Standards Track [Page 13]

RFC 3182 Identity Representation for RSVP October 2001

P-Type AUTH_USER is assigned the value 2. P-Type AUTH_APP is
assigned the value 3.

Following the policies outlined in [IANA-CONSIDERATIONS],
authentication attribute types (A-Type) in the range 0-127 are
allocated through an IETF Consensus action, A-Type values between
128-255 are reserved for Private Use and are not assigned by IANA.

A-Type POLICY_LOCATOR is assigned the value 1. A-Type CREDENTIAL is
assigned the value 2. A-Type DIGITAL_SIGNATURE is assigned the value
3. A-Type POLICY_ERROR_OBJECT is assigned the value 4.

Following the policies outlined in [IANA-CONSIDERATIONS],
POLICY_LOCATOR SubType values in the range 0-127 are allocated
through an IETF Consensus action, POLICY_LOCATOR SubType values
between 128-255 are reserved for Private Use and are not assigned by
IANA.

POLICY_LOCATOR SubType ASCII_DN is assigned the value 1, SubType
UNICODE_DN is assigned the value 2, SubType ASCII_DN_ENCRYPT is
assigned the value 3 and SubType UNICODE_DN_ENCRYPT is assigned the
value 4.

Following the policies outlined in [IANA-CONSIDERATIONS], CREDENTIAL
SubType values in the range 0-127 are allocated through an IETF
Consensus action, CREDENTIAL SubType values between 128-255 are
reserved for Private Use and are not assigned by IANA.

CREDENTIAL SubType ASCII_ID is assigned the value 1, SubType
UNICODE_ID is assigned the value 2, SubType KERBEROS_TKT is assigned
the value 3, SubType X509_V3_CERT is assigned the value 4, SubType
PGP_CERT is assigned the value 5.

Following the policies outlined in [IANA-CONSIDERATIONS], ErrorValues
in the range 0-32767 are allocated through an IETF Consensus action,
ErrorValues between 32768-65535 are reserved for Private Use and are
not assigned by IANA.

ErrorValue ERROR_NO_MORE_INFO is assigned the value 1,
UNSUPPORTED_CREDENTIAL_TYPE is assigned the value 2,
INSUFFICIENT_PRIVILEGES is assigned the value 3, EXPIRED_CREDENTIAL
is assigned the value 4, and IDENTITY_CHANGED is assigned the value
5.

Yadav, et al. Standards Track [Page 14]

RFC 3182 Identity Representation for RSVP October 2001

9. Security Considerations

The purpose of this memo is to describe a mechanism to authenticate
RSVP requests based on user identity in a secure manner. RSVP
INTEGRITY object is used to protect the policy object containing user
identity information from security (replay) attacks. Combining the
AUTH_DATA policy element and the INTEGRITY object results in a secure
access control that enforces authentication based on both the
identity of the user and the identity of the originating node.

Simple authentication does not contain credential that can be
securely authenticated and is inherently less secured.

The Kerberos authentication mechanism is reasonably well secured.

User authentication using a public key certificate is known to
provide the strongest security.
