I assume you refer to a security model in the SNMP engine. I do not
understand how you concluded that the security model knows anything
about the session lifetime; SNMP has no sessions. Transport models
might recognize transport sessions. So it would need to be a
RADIUS-enabled transport model that exposed the session lifetime, no?

I did the required idnits check and here is the result (trimmed down
to thing that might matter):

  == You're using the IETF Trust Provisions' Section 6.b License Notice from 12
     Sep 2009 rather than the newer Notice from 28 Dec 2009.  (See
     http://trustee.ietf.org/license-info/)

We might have to switch to the 28 Dec 2009 version.

  -- Obsolete informational reference (is this intentional?): RFC 4366
     (Obsoleted by RFC 5246)

This seems to be intentional.

  -- No information found for draft-seggelmann-tls-dtls-heartbeat - is the name
     correct?

The name seems to be correct; no clue why idnits fails on this one.

Perhaps because it has expired; it was published 6 Jul 2009 so is almost a
month gone by now.

No, it's actually been failing longer than that and I didn't know why 2
months ago either.  I suspect it's a bug in their database files or something.

I'll go look at it.  I didn't think we could change the notice if it was
published before the magic date, but I bet they do have a new wording
of the same condition.  I didn't think about that.

Looks OK to me.

A minor editorial nit: Should the phrase "whether it succeeded or
failed" be "regardless of whether it suceeded or failed" in the
DESCRIPTION clauses?

Thanks for responding.  I'll go republish it now.  I was feeling nervous
that no one had responded about the text.  Highly unusual in the IETF!

That's the only available pre5378 trust text that the latest version of
xml2rfc contains.  We do need the pre5378 text escape clause since some
of the original text came from people that I'd have a hard (impossible)
time to track down.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Integrated Security Model for SNMP Working Group of the IETF.


	Title           : Transport Layer Security (TLS) Transport Model for SNMP
	Author(s)       : W. Hardaker
	Filename        : draft-ietf-isms-dtls-tm-08.txt
	Pages           : 65
	Date            : 2010-02-02

This document describes a Transport Model for the Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP), that uses either the Transport Layer
Security protocol or the Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS)
protocol.  The TLS and DTLS protocols provide authentication and
privacy services for SNMP applications.  This document describes how
the TLS Transport Model (TLSTM) implements the needed features of a
SNMP Transport Subsystem to make this protection possible in an
interoperable way.

This transport model is designed to meet the security and operational
needs of network administrators.  It supports sending of SNMP
messages over TLS/TCP, DTLS/UDP and DTLS/SCTP.  The TLS mode can make
use of TCP's improved support for larger packet sizes and the DTLS
mode provides potentially superior operation in environments where a
connectionless (e.g.  UDP or SCTP) transport is preferred.  Both TLS
and DTLS integrate well into existing public keying infrastructures.

This document also defines a portion of the Management Information
Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols.  In particular
it defines objects for managing the TLS Transport Model for SNMP.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:

Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP at:

Hi,

now that we have cleared up the counters, I believe we are pretty much
done with the (D)TLS transport mapping.  I plan to deliver the
document to our AD by the end of this week.  Attached is my document
writeup in case you want to review it before it goes to Pasi.

Document: draft-ietf-isms-dtls-tm-08.txt

  (1.a) Who is the Document Shepherd for this document? Has the
        Document Shepherd personally reviewed this version of the 
        document and, in particular, does he or she believe this 
        version is ready for forwarding to the IESG for publication? 

Juergen Schoenwaelder is the document shepherd. I have reviewed the
document several times including thef latest version and I believe it
is ready for forwarding it to the IESG for publication.

  (1.b) Has the document had adequate review both from key WG members 
        and from key non-WG members? Does the Document Shepherd have 
        any concerns about the depth or breadth of the reviews that 
        have been performed?  

The document has received WG last call reviews from

- Andrew Donati <adonati@motorola.com>
- Pasi Eronen <pasi.eronen@nokia.com>
- Juergen Schoenwaelder <j.schoenwaelder@jacobs-university.de>
- Hamid Mukhtar <hamid@etri.re.kr>
- Alan Luchuk <luchuk@snmp.com>
- Joe Salowey <jsalowey@cisco.com>
- David Harrington <ietfdbh@comcast.net>
- Tom Petch <cfinss@dial.pipex.com>
- Robert Story <robert.story@cobham.com>

and I do not have any concerns regarding the level of review for this
document.

  (1.c) Does the Document Shepherd have concerns that the document 
        needs more review from a particular or broader perspective, 
        e.g., security, operational complexity, someone familiar with 
        AAA, internationalization or XML? 

The document might benefit from a review of the TLS certificate
handling procedures by some TLS expert; perhaps this can be dealt with
as part of the security directorate review.

  (1.d) Does the Document Shepherd have any specific concerns or 
        issues with this document that the Responsible Area Director
        and/or the IESG should be aware of? For example, perhaps he 
        or she is uncomfortable with certain parts of the document, or 
        has concerns whether there really is a need for it. In any 
        event, if the WG has discussed those issues and has indicated 
        that it still wishes to advance the document, detail those 
        concerns here. Has an IPR disclosure related to this document 
        been filed? If so, please include a reference to the 
        disclosure and summarize the WG discussion and conclusion on 
        this issue. 

I do not have any specific concerns.
No IPR disclosure been filed as far as we know.

  (1.e) How solid is the WG consensus behind this document? Does it 
        represent the strong concurrence of a few individuals, with 
        others being silent, or does the WG as a whole understand and 
        agree with it?

The document has WG consensus and the WG wants the document to be
published as a Proposed Standard.

  (1.f) Has anyone threatened an appeal or otherwise indicated extreme 
        discontent? If so, please summarise the areas of conflict in 
        separate email messages to the Responsible Area Director. (It 
        should be in a separate email because this questionnaire is 
        entered into the ID Tracker.) 

No-one has threatened with an appeal or expressed extreme discontent.

  (1.g) Has the Document Shepherd personally verified that the 
        document satisfies all ID nits? (See the Internet-Drafts Checklist 
        and http://tools.ietf.org/tools/idnits/). Boilerplate checks are 
        not enough; this check needs to be thorough. Has the document 
        met all formal review criteria it needs to, such as the MIB 
        Doctor, media type and URI type reviews? 

The document has been checked with idnits 2.12.00 and the warnings
generated are all intentional or bugs in the tool. The document
contains a MIB module and should go through the MIB doctor review
processs.

  (1.h) Has the document split its references into normative and 
        informative? Are there normative references to documents that 
        are not ready for advancement or are otherwise in an unclear 
        state? If such normative references exist, what is the 
        strategy for their completion? Are there normative references 
        that are downward references, as described in [RFC3967]? If 
        so, list these downward references to support the Area 
        Director in the Last Call procedure for them [RFC3967]. 

References are split in Normative and Informative. All normative
documents have been published.

  (1.i) Has the Document Shepherd verified that the document IANA 
        consideration section exists and is consistent with the body 
        of the document? If the document specifies protocol 
        extensions, are reservations requested in appropriate IANA 
        registries? Are the IANA registries clearly identified? If 
        the document creates a new registry, does it define the 
        proposed initial contents of the registry and an allocation 
        procedure for future registrations? Does it suggest a 
        reasonable name for the new registry? See [RFC5226]. If the 
        document describes an Expert Review process has Shepherd 
        conferred with the Responsible Area Director so that the IESG 
        can appoint the needed Expert during the IESG Evaluation? 

The document requests a number of assignment in existing registries.
It does not create any new registries. I believe the IANA instructions
are clear.

  (1.j) Has the Document Shepherd verified that sections of the 
        document that are written in a formal language, such as XML 
        code, BNF rules, MIB definitions, etc., validate correctly in 
        an automated checker? 

The MIB module has been checked using smilint for syntactic
correctness.

  (1.k) The IESG approval announcement includes a Document 
        Announcement Write-Up. Please provide such a Document 
        Announcement Write-Up? Recent examples can be found in the
        "Action" announcements for approved documents. The approval 
        announcement contains the following sections: 

     Technical Summary 
     	This document describes a Transport Model for the Simple
        Network Management Protocol (SNMP), that uses either the
        Transport Layer Security protocol or the Datagram Transport
        Layer Security (DTLS) protocol.  The TLS and DTLS protocols
        provide authentication and privacy services for SNMP
        applications.  This document describes how the TLS Transport
        Model (TLSTM) implements the needed features of a SNMP
        Transport Subsystem to make this protection possible in an
        interoperable way.

     Working Group Summary 

        The working group went over several revisions of this document
	and the document and all WG last call comments have been
	resolved. There has been strong WG consensus to publish this
	document as Proposed Standard.

     Document Quality 
        There are two known implementations in progress of the
	(D)TLS Transport Model.

I would like to submit some "health warnings" text for inclusion in  
the Security Considerations section.   I'm currently "on deadline" for  
some more pressing deliverables, so it may be a little while before I  
get to this.

Hi,

Has anybody published an analysis of the differences, especially for
configuration and defaults and certificate processing, between the
TLS/DTLS usage in this document versus that in the syslog/tls and
syslog/dtls documents?

I know the syslog/dtls document was largely based on Wes's early
drafts for snmp/dtls. But both the tlstm and the syslog/dtls documents
have gone through significant editing since then.

The syslog WG has already had syslog/tls approved, and is about to
start WGLC on syslog/dtls, and plans to submit it to the IESG by
March. These documents will likely be going through the approval
process together, at least to a degree. While the syslog and SNMP
architectures are polar opposites, I think it would be helpful to
consider whether the operation and security of these two solutions
will be compatible and/or comparable.

The writeup mentions a review by the security directorate; you might
also ask that the operations directorate review it with an eye toward
consistency in operations between the protocols.

I compared them a while back, but I agree they've both received a lot of
work since then.  I'll take a look at the syslog document next week
sometime to look for any gotchas, but I don't think the pieces that are
similar between them have likely diverged much for as you said,
architecturally they're very different.  The one previous thing that the
SNMP document didn't do that the syslog document did was fingerprints,
and we've since added support for that.

I don't think it's worth holding up the submission to the IESG for though.

When I did my review I looked at this.  While the two are not exactly
aligned I think they are close enough not to cause problems.  I do think
it is still a good idea to have folks look at it from an operational
point of view. =20

Hi,

I quickly looked at the two documents for differences.
I found a few I thought might deserve discussion:

-- DoS --

syslog:
Implementations MUST support
   the denial of service countermeasures defined by DTLS.  When these
   countermeasures are enabled, the transport receiver responds with a
   DTLS Hello Verify Request containing a cookie.  
snmp:
DTLS Transport
       Model server implementations MUST support DTLS cookies.

       Implementations are not required to perform the stateless
cookie
       exchange for every DTLS handshake, but in environments where an
       overload on server side resources is detectable by the
       implementation it is RECOMMENDED that the cookie exchange is
       utilized by the implementation.

My impression is that syslog allows an admin to enable this as a
deployment option; tlstm seems to depend on the implementation. (and I
have difficulty knowing how an implementation will know if overlaod on
server side is detectable, unless it is doing the detection itself.) 
1) Is enable/disable capability a MUST implement for DTLS cookie
exchange?
2) Should tlstm recognize whether it is enabled/disabled? 
3) Would it be better to RECOMMEND or REQUIRE the cookie exchange in
syslog when the implementation can detect an overload on server
resources?
4) in syslog, would it be better to specify the actions of the DTLS
entity rather than "the transport receiver"? Does the draft spell out
clearly whether the "transport receiver" is the DTLS client or DTLS
server? When a syslog entity can act as both sender and receiver, what
is that implementation REQUIRED to support in terms of DTLS client and
DTLS server? I didn't see that in the text prior to section 5.3.1;
should this be made clear in the terminology section? Should there be
mandatory-to-implement text about this?


-- DCCP --

syslog/dtls supports the dccp transport:
   As the Internet best runs on the basis of appropriate resource
   sharing, SYSLOG over DTLS over DCCP [RFC5238] is defined in this
   document.  For systems where DCCP is either not available or not
   usable (such as the afformentioned situation), DTLS over UDP is
also
   defined.  In those circumstances where reliability or ordering is
   important, SYSLOG over TLS is appropriate.  Syslog over TLS does
not
   provide application layer acknowledgements and therefore is not a
   fully reliable solution.
and
   DTLS can run over multiple transports.  Implementations of this
   specification MUST support DTLS over UDP and SHOULD support DTLS
over
   DCCP [RFC5238]. 
and
   When TCP is used syslog over DTLS MUST NOT be used.  If a secure
   transport is required with TCP then the appropriate mechanism is
   syslog over TLS.

although we are discussing:
Based on some advice from Lars, I recommend
s/Implementations of this specification MUST support DTLS over UDP and
SHOULD support DTLS over DCCP [RFC5238].  /
Implementations of this specification MUST support both DTLS over UDP
and DTLS over DCCP [RFC5238]. DCCP support itself is not a MUST, but
implementations of this specification MUST be prepared to support DCCP
where it is available."

I notice DCCP is not mentioned by TLSTM.
I'm not sure how much extra work it would take to add DCCP support to
snmp/dtls.

-- ports --

Since DTLS can run over DCCP, tlstm might want to define a domain for
that while you're at it (or not).

-- cipher suites --

syslog:
   Implementations MUST support DTLS 1.1 [RFC4347] and MUST support
the
   mandatory to implement cipher suite, which is
   TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA.
tsltm:
	does not define a mandatory-to-implement cipher suite. 

Could this impact interoperability? I know this is one of those points
that keeps getting discussed. 
1) A mandatory-to-implement cipher suite ensures that different
implementations will have at least one suite that cna be used for
interoperability. 
2) But doesn't DTLS already define mandatory-to-implement cipher
suites? Do we need to do that here as well? Isn't it inherited from
DTLS?



How's this for a discussion starter?

Hmm... DTLS says that cookies MUST be supported, so it seems like
simply mentioning that admins can enabled it, as opposed to only
RECOMMENDING it under special circumstances, would bring the two in
line.

DH> 1) Is enable/disable capability a MUST implement for DTLS cookie

Does syslog have this MUST, or simply a mention of 'when it is enabled'
implying it is configurable? I agree that parity would be good, and it
would be nice for it to be configurable.

Couldn't hurt to add a domain and say implementations MAY support DCCP,
but I don't think it's worth it if it's going to hold up the document.

I vote for 2, that we inherit from DTLS...

Hi -

Agreed.  I think there is some need for some text
on "environmental assumptions / requirements" both
on this question and on assumptions about the transport
(per David Harrington's earlier comment).

I have extremely limited internet access right now,
but should be able to resume work on the document
on February 17th or so.

Randy

Yes.

There are assumptions about the services
provided that need to be made explicit.
However, if there is visibility of transport
session establishment and termination, there
is no need for visibility of the lifetime
information from RADIUS, since the RADIUS semantics
of session lifetime require the transport to terminate
the session upon expiration of the lifetime anyway.

I suggest that some DTLS expert suggests text that is adequate.  It
seems to me that the ISMS text is better than the SYSLOG text but I am
not too deeply involved in DTLS matters.

Nobody ever asked for DCCP and I am reluctant to start new efforts to
add DCCP support. SNMP runs over UDP for more than 20 years and for a
single CG-CR transport, transactions are pretty much stop-and-wait
(multi-threaded retrievals like those described in RFC 1187 never
really took off because they spoil the caching on typical
agents). SYSLOG is quite different here since it is fire-and-forget
and as such a SYSLOG sender will never adapt to the speed of the
network. In other words, unless Lars raises a flag that SNMP over UDP
is not acceptable anymore after 20+ years of deployment, I am
reluctant to add explicit text concerning DCCP. And if Lars
successfully raises a flag that SNMP over UDP is not acceptable
anymore, we do have a bigger problem to solve.

The ISMS WG never asked for DCCP and unless the IESG requires us to
add DCCP support, I do not think we need to do this.

This was discussed in the ISMS WG and I think we concluded that the
TLS specs define mandatory to implement cipher suites and that it is
counter productive to have our own list since we want to pick up new
mandatory cipher suites in case TLS specs move on because e.g. a
cipher is broken. In short, it is the job of the TLS specs to define
mandatory to implement ciphers.

Juergen

I think that the document should also be pointed at the Transport Directorate in
1c).

You mention a review by a TLS expert there, which is something I appreciate.  I
think the description of certificate handling wrong, although not wrong enough
to say any more than I have already said, so if a(nother) TLS expert says fine,
then I will revise my views.  I won't appeal, or raise this again.

But I have also expressed concern over transport, the description of the
differences between TCP and UDP, which, for me, do not exist at the protocol
level, rather at the implementation detail of what code libraries are currently
available.  I have reservations about how much of that should be normative
specification in a RFC, and think that this goes too far.  Again, I have said
this all already and don't plan to say any more but would appreciate a review by
the Transport Directorate.

My personal view on this is that there has historically been a tendency in
the IETF to stimulate demand for deployment of new transport protocols by
placing a requirement to use them in any vaguely appropriate application
layer document that happens to be coming along at the time.  My opinion is
that's not always appropriate.  I won't suggest that's necessarily the case
here, because I haven't been following the work on syslog.  Just sayin' ...

Agreed.

As Robert said, it is a SHOULD in RFC4347 which I think enough.

see above

No.  SNMP subdivides the solution space into many more pieces,
introducing EOPs, ASIs, etc in order to do so.

syslog takes a much simpler view of what the implementer needs to
be told, and I think there is no merit in subdividing the stack further.
Once started, where do you stop?  Adding tlstm section 5.5.1?:-)

syslog-dtls 5.2.  Port Assignment

 A SYSLOG transport sender is always a DTLS client and a transport
 receiver is always a DTLS server.

The counter argument is twofold.  One is that the (D)TLS specs move
on in a world of their own, probably leading edge and out of this world for
many users thereof.  Thus the recent discussions on renegotiation have
highlighted
how many people are using SSL and how many implementations do not
conform to the enhancements introduced in TLS1.0 ie (a part of) the real
world is 11 years behind the cryptographic experts.  Including the current
received wisdom gives a sanity check.

Second, users have to go find it, they have to navigate their way through the
RFC chain, understanding that RFC are never re-issued but may be superseded,
so if they want the latest view, they need to consult and understand rfc-index.

What I am hinting at here is that my experience of the syslog list is very
different
to that on eg OPSAWG or isms; the former has less of the IETF culture,
more of people doing their own thing and needing a little steer in the right
direction.  I did survey the then current specs of application-over-TLS for this
and found that some do, some don't, and that 'do' seemed right for syslog.

Pasi,

the ISMS chairs believe that the ISMS WG has reached concensus on
draft-ietf-isms-dtls-tm-08.txt and we request publication of this
document as Proposed Standard RFC.

Below is the document shepherd writeup for
draft-ietf-isms-dtls-tm-08.txt.

  (1.a) Who is the Document Shepherd for this document? Has the
        Document Shepherd personally reviewed this version of the 
        document and, in particular, does he or she believe this 
        version is ready for forwarding to the IESG for publication? 

Juergen Schoenwaelder is the document shepherd. I have reviewed the
document several times including thef latest version and I believe it
is ready for forwarding it to the IESG for publication.

  (1.b) Has the document had adequate review both from key WG members 
        and from key non-WG members? Does the Document Shepherd have 
        any concerns about the depth or breadth of the reviews that 
        have been performed?  

The document has received WG last call reviews from

- Andrew Donati <adonati@motorola.com>
- Pasi Eronen <pasi.eronen@nokia.com>
- Juergen Schoenwaelder <j.schoenwaelder@jacobs-university.de>
- Hamid Mukhtar <hamid@etri.re.kr>
- Alan Luchuk <luchuk@snmp.com>
- Joe Salowey <jsalowey@cisco.com>
- David Harrington <ietfdbh@comcast.net>
- Tom Petch <cfinss@dial.pipex.com>
- Robert Story <robert.story@cobham.com>

and I do not have any concerns regarding the level of review for this
document.

  (1.c) Does the Document Shepherd have concerns that the document 
        needs more review from a particular or broader perspective, 
        e.g., security, operational complexity, someone familiar with 
        AAA, internationalization or XML? 

The document might benefit from a review of the TLS certificate
handling procedures by some TLS expert; perhaps this can be dealt with
as part of the security directorate review. Note that there are TLS
transport mapping documents for other management protocol produced by
other working groups (NETCONF over TLS [RFC 5539], SYSLOG over TLS
[RFC5425], SYSLOG over DTLS [draft-ietf-syslog-dtls-01.txt]); while
the authors/editors of these documents were aware of the other
documents and tried to align things, an independent review of
consistency of operations between these protocols might be useful.
Sections 5.1, 5.1.1, 5.1.2 should be reviewed by the transport area
directors (or the transport directorate) to ensure the multiplexing
language is correct.

  (1.d) Does the Document Shepherd have any specific concerns or 
        issues with this document that the Responsible Area Director
        and/or the IESG should be aware of? For example, perhaps he 
        or she is uncomfortable with certain parts of the document, or 
        has concerns whether there really is a need for it. In any 
        event, if the WG has discussed those issues and has indicated 
        that it still wishes to advance the document, detail those 
        concerns here. Has an IPR disclosure related to this document 
        been filed? If so, please include a reference to the 
        disclosure and summarize the WG discussion and conclusion on 
        this issue. 

I do not have any specific concerns.
No IPR disclosure been filed as far as we know.

  (1.e) How solid is the WG consensus behind this document? Does it 
        represent the strong concurrence of a few individuals, with 
        others being silent, or does the WG as a whole understand and 
        agree with it?

The document has WG consensus and the WG wants the document to be
published as a Proposed Standard.

  (1.f) Has anyone threatened an appeal or otherwise indicated extreme 
        discontent? If so, please summarise the areas of conflict in 
        separate email messages to the Responsible Area Director. (It 
        should be in a separate email because this questionnaire is 
        entered into the ID Tracker.) 

No-one has threatened with an appeal or expressed extreme discontent.

  (1.g) Has the Document Shepherd personally verified that the 
        document satisfies all ID nits? (See the Internet-Drafts Checklist 
        and http://tools.ietf.org/tools/idnits/). Boilerplate checks are 
        not enough; this check needs to be thorough. Has the document 
        met all formal review criteria it needs to, such as the MIB 
        Doctor, media type and URI type reviews? 

The document has been checked with idnits 2.12.00 and the warnings
generated are all intentional or bugs in the tool. The document
contains a MIB module and should go through the MIB doctor review
processs.

  (1.h) Has the document split its references into normative and 
        informative? Are there normative references to documents that 
        are not ready for advancement or are otherwise in an unclear 
        state? If such normative references exist, what is the 
        strategy for their completion? Are there normative references 
        that are downward references, as described in [RFC3967]? If 
        so, list these downward references to support the Area 
        Director in the Last Call procedure for them [RFC3967]. 

References are split in Normative and Informative. All normative
documents have been published.

  (1.i) Has the Document Shepherd verified that the document IANA 
        consideration section exists and is consistent with the body 
        of the document? If the document specifies protocol 
        extensions, are reservations requested in appropriate IANA 
        registries? Are the IANA registries clearly identified? If 
        the document creates a new registry, does it define the 
        proposed initial contents of the registry and an allocation 
        procedure for future registrations? Does it suggest a 
        reasonable name for the new registry? See [RFC5226]. If the 
        document describes an Expert Review process has Shepherd 
        conferred with the Responsible Area Director so that the IESG 
        can appoint the needed Expert during the IESG Evaluation? 

The document requests a number of assignment in existing registries.
It does not create any new registries. I believe the IANA instructions
are clear.

  (1.j) Has the Document Shepherd verified that sections of the 
        document that are written in a formal language, such as XML 
        code, BNF rules, MIB definitions, etc., validate correctly in 
        an automated checker? 

The MIB module has been checked using smilint for syntactic
correctness.

  (1.k) The IESG approval announcement includes a Document 
        Announcement Write-Up. Please provide such a Document 
        Announcement Write-Up? Recent examples can be found in the
        "Action" announcements for approved documents. The approval 
        announcement contains the following sections: 

     Technical Summary 
     	This document describes a Transport Model for the Simple
        Network Management Protocol (SNMP), that uses either the
        Transport Layer Security protocol or the Datagram Transport
        Layer Security (DTLS) protocol.  The TLS and DTLS protocols
        provide authentication and privacy services for SNMP
        applications.  This document describes how the TLS Transport
        Model (TLSTM) implements the needed features of a SNMP
        Transport Subsystem to make this protection possible in an
        interoperable way.

     Working Group Summary 

        The working group went over several revisions of this document
	and the document and all WG last call comments have been
	resolved. There has been strong WG consensus to publish this
	document as Proposed Standard.

     Document Quality 
        There are two known implementations in progress of the
	(D)TLS Transport Model.

Hi,

the ISMS chairs believe that the dtls document, after extensive WG
last call periods, has reached WG concensus and hence we decided to
submit the document via our AD to the IESG for publication as Proposed
Standard.

Any concerns that this document is inconsistent with other
specifications being developed by other WGs can be raised as IETF last
call comments and then be resolved with the active involvement of the
respective IESG members.

Special review requests have been included in the document writeup.

Actually, we require it to be implemented but we're rather flexible on
how it's actually used.  Intentionally.  I decided that there wouldn't
be problems if different implementations did different things.  Some
implementations could have it configurable; others could do automatic
detection, etc.  So we certainly support the same case that syslog is
doing, but we also allow implementations more flexibility.  I don't
believe this impacts interoperability of our base protocol.

DH> 1) Is enable/disable capability a MUST implement for DTLS cookie

Not currently.

DH> 2) Should tlstm recognize whether it is enabled/disabled? 

That's diving into protocol layers we said we wouldn't dive into.
Specifically, I was requested not mention DTLS specific protocol message
types in the document (like the syslog/DTLS document does).

DH> 3) Would it be better to RECOMMEND or REQUIRE the cookie exchange in
DH> syslog when the implementation can detect an overload on server
DH> resources?

Then that would prohibit an implementation from doing a runtime
on/off/maybe setting.  So personally, no, I don't see the need.  But I
also don't feel strongly about it.

I agree; that's my recollection too (and one I agree with).

AD review comments for draft-ietf-isms-dtls-tm-08

I've now done my AD review for draft-ietf-isms-dtls-tm-08, and bunch
of comments. Most of them are quite small, and I've tried to suggest
possible text in most cases (but this is just to clarify what I'm
looking for; I'm not hung up on the exact wording):

Somewhat substantial first:

- Unless we have a normative dependency to
draft-ietf-tsvwg-dtls-for-sctp (which would delay this document for
unpredictable time), we need to specify which of the possible ways of
running DTLS over SCTP we're using in this document. Since this might
take some time, I would suggest just leaving out DTLS-over-SCTP from
this document.

- Currently, the document specifies how the TLS client authenticates/
authorizes the TLS server only when SNMP-TARGET-MIB is used.  But
clearly authenticating the TLS server is also important for
e.g. command generators. These may not have a MIB, but shouldn't we at
least recommend an implementation-specific management/configuration
interface that supports configuring the same details as
tlstmAddrTable?

(E.g. Syslog-over-TLS specifies that the management interface must be
able to configure this stuff, but that "management interface" could
be a configuration file, GUI, or even a proprietary MIB.)

- Overall: The details of exactly how (D)TLS needs to be used are
scattered over the document, and in some cases, not very clearly
written. Probably we should include a "(D)TLS usage" section that
explains what TLS features/etc. we're using and so on. Here's a first
sketch, replacing current 4.2:

4.2.  (D)TLS Usage

   (D)TLS MUST negotiate a cipher suite that uses X.509 certificates
   for authentication, and MUST authenticate both the client and the
   server. The mandatory-to-implement cipher suite is specified in the
   TLS specification [RFC5246].

   TLSTM verifies the certificates when the connection is opened (see
   Section 5.3). For this reason, TLS renegotiation with different
   certificates MUST NOT be done.  That is, implementations MUST
   either disable renegotiation completely (RECOMMENDED), or MUST
   present the same certificate during renegotiation (and MUST verify
   that the other end presented the same certificate).

   For DTLS over UDP, each SNMP message MUST be placed in a single UDP
   datagram; it MAY be split to multiple DTLS records. In other words,
   if a single datagram contains multiple DTLS application_data
   records, they are concatenated when received. The TLSTM
   implementation SHOULD return an error if the SNMP message does not
   fit in the UDP datagram, and thus cannot be sent.

   For DTLS over UDP, the DTLS server implementation MUST support DTLS
   cookies ([RFC4347] already requires that clients support DTLS
   cookies).  Implementations are not required to perform the cookie
   exchange for every DTLS handshake; however, enabling it by default
   is RECOMMENDED.

   For DTLS, replay protection MUST be used.

- Section 3.1.3. "As an implementation hint: although the
tlstmSessionID may be the same as the (D)TLS internal SessionID
caution must be exercised since the (D)TLS internal SessionID may
change over the life of the connection as seen by the TLSTM (for
example during renegotiation).  The tlstmSessionID identifier MUST NOT
change during the entire duration of the session from the TLSTM's
perspective even if the TLS internal session identifier does change."

This is not correct; it's possible to have several (D)TLS connections
(over different TCP connections, or different UDP five-tuples) that
have the same (D)TLS internal Session ID, so it does not uniquely
identify a TLSTM session. I would suggest just deleting this
paragraph.

Largely for the same reason, Section 5.1.1 is not quite correct;
here's an attempt to rephrase it:

5.1.1.  DTLS over UDP Processing for Incoming Messages

   For connection-oriented transport protocols, such as TCP, the
   transport protocol takes care of demultiplexing incoming packets to
   the right connection. Depending on the DTLS implementation, for
   DTLS over UDP, this demultiplexing may need to be done by the TLSTM
   implementation.

   Like TCP, DTLS over UDP uses the four-tuple <source IP, destination
   IP, source port, destination port> for identifying the connection
   (and relevant DTLS connection state). This means that when
   establishing a new session, implementations MUST use a different
   UDP source port number for each active connection to a remote
   destination IP-address/port-number combination to ensure the remote
   entity can disambiguate between multiple connections.

   If demultiplexing received UDP datagrams to DTLS connection state
   is done by the TLSTM implementation (instead of the DTLS
   implementation), the steps below describe one possible method to
   accomplish this.

   1)  The TLS Transport Model examines the UDP datagram, in an
       implementation-dependent manner.

   2)  The TLS Transport Model queries the LCD using the transport
       parameters (source and destination IP addresses and ports) to
       determine if a session already exists.

       If a matching entry in the LCD does not exist, create a new
       entry containing the transport parameters; a new DTLS
       connection handle (an implementation-dependent detail), and a
       new tlsTmSessionId.

   3)  Pass the UDP packet and DTLS connection handle to DTLS (in
       implementation-dependent manner). If processing does not return
       an incomingMessage and an incomingMessageLength then processing
       stops (this is the case when the UDP datagram contained DTLS
       handshake messages, for example).

   4)  Retrieve the incomingMessage and an incomingMessageLength from
       DTLS.  These results and the tlstmSessionID are used below in
       Section 5.1.2 to complete the processing of the incoming message.

- Section 7, tlstmCertSANDNSName: I thought we agreed in IETF76 that
this should be lowercased?

- Section 7, tlstmCertSANIpAddress: I thought we agreed in IETF76 that
IPv6 addresses need to be in lowercase?

- Section 7, tlstmCertCommonName: "[..] by directly passing the value
without any transformations" -> "[..]. The value is converted to UTF-8
encoding, but no other transformation are done."

- Section 7, tlstmParamsClientFingerprint: we should probably allow an
empty value to accommodate the common case where the client has just
one certificate/private key?

- Section 7, tlstmAddrTable DESCRIPTION is a bit vague on some of the
details, and in its present form, would need a normative reference to
draft-saintandre-tls-server-id-check (which we might want to avoid so
this document is not delayed). Suggested rephrasing:

   "This table is used by a (D)TLS client when a (D)TLS connection is
   being set up using an entry in the SNMP-TARGET-MIB.  It extends the
   SNMP-TARGET-MIB's snmpTargetAddrTable so that the client can verify
   that the correct server has been reached.

   This verification can use either a certificate fingerprint, or an
   identity authenticated via certification path validation.

   If there is a row in this table corresponding to the entry in the
   SNMP-TARGET-MIB that was used to establish the session (and that
   row is active), and the row's tlstmAddrServerFingerprint column has
   non-empty value, the server's presented certificate is compared
   with the fingerprint (and the tlstmAddrServerIdentity column is
   ignored). If the fingerprint matches, the verification has
   succeeded.

   If the server's presented certificate has passed certification path
   validation [RFC5280] to a configured trust anchor, and a row exists
   with a zero-length tlstmAddrServerFingerprint value, then the
   tlstmAddrServerIdentity column contains the expected host name.
   This expected host name is then compared against the server's
   certicate as follows:

   - Implementations MUST support matching the expected host name
   against a dNSName in the subjectAltName extension field and SHOULD
   support checking the name against the common name portion of the
   subject distinguished name.

   - The '*' (ASCII 42) wildcard character is allowed in the dNSName
   of the subjectAltName extension (and in common name, if used to
   store the host name), but only as the left-most (least significant)
   DNS label in that value.  This wildcard matches any left-most DNS
   label in the server name.  That is, the subject *.example.com
   matches the server names a.example.com and b.example.com, but does
   not match example.com or a.b.example.com.  Implementations MUST
   support wildcards in certificates as specified above, but MAY
   provide a configuration option to disable them.

   - If the locally configured name is an internationalized domain
   name, conforming implementations MUST convert it to the ASCII
   Compatible Encoding (ACE) format for performing comparisons, as
   specified in Section 7 of [RFC5280].

   If none of the rows in this table match, then the connection MUST
   be closed (except if the server can be authorized by other,
   implementation-dependent means)."

- Section 7, "tlstmAddrServerIdentity", remove the last sentence
(about wildcards) and REFERENCE, and change DEFVAL to "" (the wildcard
cannot be used by the procedure as currently described, since the
identity column is looke at only if fingerprint is zero-length, and if
the fingerprint is zero-length, wildcard is not allowed...)

- Section 5.3.1, step 4, rephrase 2nd paragraph as:

   If the connection is being established from configuration based on
   SNMP-TARGET-MIB configuration, then the tlstmAddrTable DESCRIPTION
   clause describes how the verification is done (using either a
   certificate fingerprint, or an identity authenticated via
   certification path validation).

- Section 10, rephrase items 1..6 as:

  1. Two TCP/UDP/SCTP port numbers from the "Registered Ports" range
  of the Port Numbers registry, with keywords "snmptls" and
  "snmptls-trap".  These are the default ports for receipt of SNMP
  command messages (snmptls) and SNMP notification messages
  (snmptls-trap) over a TLS Transport Model as defined in this
  document.

  And delete both paragraphs starting with "If possible, ..." later
  in this section (if we ask for the same port, we will get it).

- C.1. I think we need an example here. Here's a first attempt
   (based on RFC 5591, Appendix A):

   For notification originators performing authorization checks, the
   server's certificate must be verified against the expected
   certificate before proceeding to send the notification.  This is
   done by configuring the tlstmAddrTable accordingly. For example,
   if the verification is done via certification path validation
   (to a trust anchor configured in implementation dependent manner),
   the entries could look like:

          snmpTargetAddrTable row:
             snmpTargetAddrName              toCRAddr
         *   snmpTargetAddrTDomain           snmpTLSTCPDomain

          tlstmAddrTable row:
             snmpTargetAddrName              toCRAddr
             tlstmAddrServerFingerprint      ""
             tlstmAddrServerIdentity         "server.example.org"

             tlstmAddrRowStatus              createAndGo


Semi-editorial/editorial:

- Section 1, "While (D)TLS supports multiple authentication
mechanisms, this document only discusses X.509 certificate based
authentication.  Although other forms of authentication are possible
they are outside the scope of this specification." sounds a bit
cumbersomet. Perhaps "While [..], this document [..]; other forms of
authentication are outside the scope of this specification" would
be more fluent?

- Section 1: "connectionless (e.g.  UDP or SCTP) transport":
SCTP is connection-oriented, not connectionless.

- Section 1: We shouldn't have a figure longer than one page.
Here's an attempt to clean the figure slightly so it fits on
one page:

- Section 1.1 says 'The terms "manager" and "agent" are not used in
this document'; however, the rest of the document occasionally uses
the word 'manager' to refer to the person who's configuring
stuff. Should these be changed to 'administrator'?

- Section 1.1: "this document (unless otherwise specified) is referring
to TLSTM's specific session and not directly to the (D)TLS protocol's
session".  Actually, even when this document *does* specify otherwise
and explicitly says "(D)TLS session", it's still usually talking
about D(TLS) connections, not sessions. Proposed rephrasing here:

   "The (D)TLS protocols also have an internal notion of a session and
   although these two concepts of a session are related, this document
   is referring to the TLSTM's specific session and not directly to
   the (D)TLS protocol's session."

- Section 3: "to close a (D)TLS session" -> "to close the session"
(this is *not* about (D)TLS sessions, but TLSTM sessions)

- Section 3.1.1, item 2: "The TLS Transport Model MUST support
authentication of both the server and the client." This sentence is
very confusing; it seems to be targeted at the writer of this
specification, not implementor. I would just suggest deleting this
sentence.

- Section 3.1.1, item 4: "The TLS Transport Model SHOULD support the
message encryption to protect sensitive data from eavesdropping
attacks." This sentence is very confusing; it seems to be targeted at
the writer of this specification, not implementor. Or if it's targeted
at the implementor, is it trying to say that "implementations SHOULD
support at least one cipher suite that does encryption?" (that's not
needed; the mandatory-to-implement cipher suite in TLS RFCs is quite
enough) I would just suggest deleting this sentence.

- Section 3.1.1, item 5: replace all three paragraphs with

   5.  Denial of Service - the RFC 3411 architecture [RFC3411] states
   that denial of service (DoS) attacks need not be addressed by an
   SNMP security protocol.  However, connectionless transports (like
   DTLS over UDP are susceptible to a variety of denial of service
   attacks because they are more vulnerable to spoofed IP
   addresses. See Section 4.2 for details how the cookie mechanism is
   used. This mechanism, though, does not provide any defense against
   denial of service attacks mounted from valid IP addresses.

- Section 3.1.2: "(D)TLS session provides" -> "(D)TLS connection
provides"

- Section 3.1.3: "D(TLS) Sessions" -> "D(TLS) Connections"

- Section 3.3, "(D)TLS sessions may be initiated" -> "(D)TLS
connections may be initiated

- Section 3.3, "locally held certificate" -> "locally held certificate
(and the corresponding private key)"

- Section 4.1.1, OLD
     Authentication using (D)TLS will require that SNMP entities are
     provisioned with certificates, which are signed by trusted
     certificate authorities (possibly the certificate itself).
  NEW:
     Authentication using (D)TLS will require that SNMP entities have
     certificates, either signed by trusted certification authorities,
     or self-signed.

- Section 4.1.1, "tmpSecurityName" -> "tmSecurityName"

- Section 4.3.1 and 4.3.2: SnmpTLSDomain -> SnmpTLSTCPDomain

- Section 4.4.1.1, "Transport Models SHOULD generate a predictable
tmSecurityName so operators will know what to use when configuring MIB
modules that use securityNames derived from tmSecurityNames."
Setting requirements for all transport models (not just DTLSTM)
doesn't seem to belong to this document...

- Section 4.4.1.1, "through an existing (D)TLS session" -> "through an
existing (D)TLS connection"

- Section 4.4.1.2, "D(TLS) session" -> "D(TLS) connection" (both
instances)

- Section 5.1, "for all (D)TLS-based sessions" -> " for
all(D)TLS-based connections"

- Section 5.1: "TLS and DTLS/SCP" -> "TLS/TCP and DTLS/SCTP"

- Section 5.1: "5.1.2describes" -> "5.1.2 describes"

- Section 5.1.2, "lifetime of the (D)TLS session" -> "lifetime of session"

- Section 5.3 and 5.3.1 and 5.3.2, "(D)TLS session" -> "(D)TLS connection"
(all instances)

- Section 5.4, "Have (D)TLS close the specified session" ->
"Have (D)TLS close the specified connection"

- Section 6.3, "(D)TLS session usage" -> "session usage"

- Section 7, snmpTlstmSessionAccepts DESCRIPTION: TODO

- Section 7, tlstmParamsTable and tlstmAddrTable: "(D)TLS session" ->
"(D)TLS connection"

- Section 7, tlstmParamsClientFingerprint: "locally held X.509
certificate" -> "locally held X.509 certificate (and the corresponding
private key)".

- Section 8.1, " A session is discussed throughout this document as
meaning a security association between the (D)TLS client and the
(D)TLS server."  -> "A session is discussed throughout this document
as meaning a security association between two TLSTM instances."

- Section 9: OLD
     DTLS adds to the security considerations of TLS only because it
     is more vulnerable to denial of service attacks.  A random cookie
     exchange was added to the handshake to prevent anonymous denial
     of service attacks.  RFC 4347 recommends that the cookie exchange
     is utilized for all handshakes.  It is also RECOMMENDED by this
     specification that users enable this cookie exchange.
  NEW:
     When run over UDP, DTLS is more vulnerable to denial of service
     attacks from spoofed IP addresses; see Section 4.2 for details
     how the cookie exchange is used to address this issue.

- Appendix A and B: Please just delete these -- the details aren't
quite right (e.g. DTLS sessions...), and fixing them is not worth the
effort needed.

- C.1, would suggest adding "In case the notification originator has
multiple certificates, ..." to the beginning of the 2nd para.

- C.2, "(D)TLS session" -> "D(TLS) connection"

- C.2: suggest replacing "HASH" with an example hash. If I understand
the Fingerprint DISPLAY-HINT correctly, that might be something like
"02:68b9389e49a815aa4a79f40fcfce7eb8cd10669c"

- C.2: OLD
     tlstmCertToTSNMapType      =3D 1      (specified)
     tlstmCertToTSNSecurityName =3D "blueberry"
  NEW:
     tlstmCertToTSNMapType      =3D tlstmCertSpecified
     tlstmCertToTSNData         =3D "blueberry"

- C.2: OLD
     tlstmCertToTSNMapType     =3D 2       (bySubjectAltName)
     tlstmCertToTSNSANType     =3D 1       (any)
  NEW:
     tlstmCertToTSNMapType     =3D tlstmCertSANAny
     tlstmCertToTSNData        =3D ""      (not used)

- Overall: "certificate authority" -> "certification authority"

Hi -

The current i-d (draft-ietf-isms-radius-vacm-03.txt) contains
several counters.  Working through the elements of procedure,
I've come to the conclusion that they'd really not be much
help in the operational situations I've been able to think of.

To be even potentially useful, one would need to know for which
user / security model combination the error occurred.  In those
cases, the number of occurrances isn't as interesting as whether
and when the event occurred.  To me this means that if we bother
tracking these corner cases at all (and I'm NOT convinced that
they're worth tracking!) that Notifications, rather than counters
would be appropriate.  (A notification could carry the entry from
the extVacmSecurityToGroupTable, which would be all the interesting
stuff a security administrator would need to diagnose a problem.)
The corner case remaining is where memory allocation fails for
the extVacmSecurityToGroupTable.  Frankly, this case seems exceedingly
pathological.  I can't come up with a realistic recovery strategy that
a network manager might undertake in this case, and don't see the point
in counting it.  For the implementations I'm familiar with, if
internal memory is so tight that the extVacmSecurityToGroupTable
allocation would fail, there'd be serious doubt whether *any* response
at all would get out of the (sub)agent.

As a strawman position, I propose eliminating *all* the counters in
the MIB module.  If we find that they (or notifications) are useful
during early implementation efforts, we can add the ones with proven
utility at that time.

Should the RADIUS/VACM integration have an off switch?

Hi -

The current i-d has this open issue:
   1.  Is this document an amendment or update to RFC 3514?  Or is it
       simply a standalone document that describes how to provision
       certain MIB Objects defined in RFC 3514, along with an extended
       set of augmenting table columns?

I propose closing this one.  We have a standalone document that
describes how to (internally to an implementation) provision
certain MIB objects defined in RFC 3514.

Hi -

The existing issue list says:
   2.  Does this document need to make any reference to the Elements of
       Procedure in RFC 3514, or does is simply need its own Elements of
       Procedure for updating the group mapping table?

I believe we can close this one.  We don't change the RFC 3514 elements
of procedure in any way.  Other than saying just that, we don't need
to reference those elements of procedure.

Hi -

The current issue list says:
   3.  Dave Harrington had issued a summary email after IETF75
       containing apparently contradictory statements about whether the
       additional columns should be in the *same* table that VACM uses
       or in another, separate table that augments the VACM table.
       Basically, we need some help in actually structuring the new MIB
       Module.

I think we can close this one.  We have a single table which
sparsely extends / augments the vacmSecurityToGroupTable, along
with elements of procedures for creating, updating, and deleting
entries in the vacmSecurityToGroupTable.

   4.  The Groups and Conformance sections of the MIB Module need to be
       checked and kept in alignment with the definitions.

I think this can be removed - the groups and conformance material
are aligned with the rest of the document.

Hi -

Currently there is this issue in the list -

   6.  for session tracking use tlstmSessionID?

I propose closing it.  The current table organization does
have a session ID.  My working copy says:

extVacmTransportSessionID OBJECT-TYPE
    SYNTAX       Unsigned32
    MAX-ACCESS   not-accessible
    STATUS       current
    DESCRIPTION "A transport model-specific identifier of the
                 session.  This value MUST be unique among all
                 of a given transport model's currently open sessions.
                 The value has no particular significance other
                 to distinguish sessions."
    ::= { extVacmSecurityToGroupEntry 3 }

So this *could* be tlstmSessionID, and that would be the easiest thing
for an implementation to use, but there's no reason to require it,
as far as I know.

Randy

I am fine with the strawman position. However, it is important to note
that these counters track error situations during the processing of a
RADIUS message by the NAS, so normal SNMP error handling does not
apply and I guess this was the motivation to add these counters.

extVacmResourceError:

    What is common practice in RADIUS land if a NAS is being told to
    do something but fails to do so due to resource constraints? Am I
    right that specs tend to be silent about this and implementors
    simply use syslog?

extVacmNoPolicy

    Looks like the counter is ill defined. It is not an error to point
    to a non-existing access table in VACM; it is perfectly valid to
    do so to say "no access". The description in section 6.1.3 also
    does not seem to be consistent with the counter definition. I
    think both places benfit if the counter goes away.

extVacmSecurityNameConflict

    This could be a useful counter or event to report. However,
    creating a static entry can also be a means to (temporarily)
    disable the automatic creation of mappings, which would then lead
    to regular counter increments or notifications. That said, I am
    fine with the strategy of leaving the counter out until we have
    more implementation experience.

Is a global on/off switch not the same as a switch to enable/disable
the NAS? Can we expect some RADIUS configuration interface to provide
such a switch? My understanding is that once the NAS has received the
RADIUS decision, it has to do what the RADIUS server told the NAS. If
we can switch off the VACM part, what does the NAS do? It likely then
has to reject the whole session since it can't do what the RADIUS
server told it to do. So would the switch not better be placed in the
NAS itself?

Ok, so I guess we can just close this one as "not our problem"
and no action needed.  :-)

Though I'm starting to think that we really don't even need to mention
RADIUS message processing, but rather just session initiation / termination
indications from the secure transport model in question.  But that's another
discussion.

That would make more sense - an implementation that hits this situation
is in such trouble that I wouldn't even count on syslog working terribly well.

Strongly agree.  I think the VACM semantics for non-existant groups/policies
work out very well here.  We can't really distinguish this case from a policy which
only allows access to things that don't exist.  :-)

Ok, so unless someone really really wants them, I'll get rid of them.
It's easier to add such things to a clean-up EOP than it is to try to
clean up the EOP while keeping counters that may or may not be 
operationally justified.

As far as I recall, we do not touch any of the RFC 3514 semantics and
hence it seems reasonable that we do not claim to update RFC 3514.

Would it make sense to spell out that this could be the tlstmSessionID
so that implementors do not have to wonder why tlstmSessionID was not
picked in the first place? It might be OK to allow other identifiers
but since the object name carries SessionID in its name, it might even
make sense to default this to tlstmSessionID, no?

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Integrated Security Model for SNMP Working Group of the IETF.


	Title           : Extensions to the View-based Access Control Model for use with RADIUS
	Author(s)       : K. Narayan, et al.
	Filename        : draft-ietf-isms-radius-vacm-04.txt
	Pages           : 20
	Date            : 2010-02-26

This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB)
for use with network management protocols.  In particular, it
describes a backward-compatible supplement to the View-based Access
Control Model (VACM) for version 3 of the Simple Network Management
Protocol (SNMPv3) for use with the Remote Authentication Dial-In User
Service (RADIUS) and other Authentication, Authorization, and
Accounting (AAA) services to provide authorization of MIB database
access, and defines objects for managing this supplement.  It is
intended to be used in conjunction with session-oriented secure SNMP
Transport Models that facilitate RADIUS authentication, such as the
Secure Shell Transport Model.

Comments are solicited and should be addressed to the working group's
mailing list at isms@ietf.org.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-isms-radius-vacm-04.txt

Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP at:
ftp://ftp.ietf.org/internet-drafts/

Hi -

I've submitted an updated I-D; the announcement should soon appear.
I've made fairly substantial changes based on the discussion so far.
There's still quite a bit of redundancy, in my opinion, but I think
the *function* is what we've agreed on.

Let me know if I've gotten something wrong, or if I've cut something
important.

Randy

I like this better, gives a clear hint that tlstmSessionID satisfies
the requirements.

Please forgive the lack of message trimming. I'm at home with no power and email only via iPhone.

I think removing the error counters is a big mistake.  I'll elaborate when I can do so using a real keyboard. ;-)

I am fine with the strawman position. However, it is important to note
that these counters track error situations during the processing of a
RADIUS message by the NAS, so normal SNMP error handling does not
apply and I guess this was the motivation to add these counters.

extVacmResourceError:

    What is common practice in RADIUS land if a NAS is being told to
    do something but fails to do so due to resource constraints? Am I
    right that specs tend to be silent about this and implementors
    simply use syslog?

extVacmNoPolicy

    Looks like the counter is ill defined. It is not an error to point
    to a non-existing access table in VACM; it is perfectly valid to
    do so to say "no access". The description in section 6.1.3 also
    does not seem to be consistent with the counter definition. I
    think both places benfit if the counter goes away.

extVacmSecurityNameConflict

    This could be a useful counter or event to report. However,
    creating a static entry can also be a means to (temporarily)
    disable the automatic creation of mappings, which would then lead
    to regular counter increments or notifications. That said, I am
    fine with the strategy of leaving the counter out until we have
    more implementation experience.

Hi -

Here are all the events I can think of that someone
might conceivably find interesting.  These don't *exactly*
match the ones that were in previous versions of the draft,
but some are pretty close.

(1) radius server fails to provide a user/group mapping -

    Since, however, its possible that a suitable mapping
    already exists in VACM, this isn't necessarily an error.

    Even if it *is* an error, a counter by itself isn't useful.
    What would be needed would be the security model and security
    name.  Since the elements of procedure do not (currently)
    create an extVacmSecurityToGroupEntry in this case, we would need to
    add accessible-for-notify objects along with a notification
    definition to carry this information.

    If a security administrator has subscribed to this notification,
    what next?

(2) the security model / security name / session ID triple
    corresponds to an extVacmSecurityToGroupEntry which already exists.

    With RADIUS this would suggest an internal logic error, with
    some other AAA protocol it might (I'm imagining) be the result
    of the user of an existing session having been assiged to a
    different group while the session was up.  The most robust
    thing to do in this case seems to me to treat is an an update
    of the user/group mapping.

    In any case, once again a simple counter wouldn't provide enough
    information to be useful.  A notification could carry the information,
    but would beg the question of whether it should carry the old group,
    the new group, or both.

    If a security administrator has subscribed to this notification,
    what "recovery action" (if it is an error) would he/she take?

(3) insufficient memory to allocate a new extVacmSecurityToGroupEntry -

    Do we expect security administrators to poll this?  What recovery
    action would be possible?  In many implementations, several
    malloc() operations can happen in the course of processing an
    SNMP message, but we certainly *don't* treat all these possible
    points of failure/recovery as countable events.  Requiring a
    notification in this case would be even worse, because notification
    generation logic is almost certain to have greater malloc()
    requirements than an entry in the extVacmTable.

(4) the group name provided by RADIUS currently is not in use by the
    vacmAccessTable -

    Operationally, I don't see how this is any different from a
    security adminstrator creating a group called "NoAccessAllowed"
    with no corresponding entries in the vacmAccessTable.  In terms
    of how VACM functions, the results are exactly the same.

    If we did track this condition, once again it would be best conveyed
    in a notification, since any conceivable recovery action would need
    to know which user and which group was the problem.

    However, *if* we go down this path, wouldn't we also want to consider
    the case where, for example, due to a security administrator's updates
    to the vacmAccessTable, all the entries indexed by a particular group
    are deleted, even though they may have been present at the time the
    extVacmTableEntry was created?  I think this goes far beyond the
    point of diminishing returns.

(5) Insufficient memory to create / update vacmSecurityToGroupEntry -

    See (3) above.

(6) Session termination indication refers to a non-existent session -

    A notification would be the appropriate vehicle for this, though
    it would require adding some accessible-for-notify objects to
    carry the information.

    I can't imagine what a security administrator could do to recover
    from this kind of internal logic error, except perhaps for cycling power.

(7) No vacmSecurityToGroupEntry exists corresponding to the
    extVacmSecurityToGroupEntry which has just been deleted -

    This could happen, for example, when a security administrator has
    deleted the vacmSecurityToGroupEntry in question.

    A notification would be the sensible vehicle for this.  Since
    the extVacmSecurityToGroupEntry in question would already
    have been deleted by the time this condition is detected,
    we'd need to add accessible-for-notify objects to report it.

    I have no idea what meaningful action a security administrator
    could take upon receipt of this notification, other than perhaps
    to make sure that it was indeed one of his/her authorized
    colleagues or applications that deleted the entry in question.

As a technical contributor, I remain unconvinced that any of these
would be worth the specification or implementation effort.

As an editor, I'll happily put back or add whatever the WG gets
consensus on.

Randy

Upon further refleciton...

As the elements of procedure are currently formulated, this situation
is indistinguishable from the case where the start-of-session indication
did not (for whatever reason) trigger the creation of an
extVacmIUserToGroupEntry.  If we *really* care about distinguishing
this case, we'd need a extVacmUserToGroupEntry corresponding to
*every* start-of-session indication, including those providing
no (or a zero-length) group mapping.  Doing so could *slightly*
simplify the elements of procedure, but whether we do so or not,
I remain unconvinced that this case is worth tracking.

Hi -

In draft-ietf-isms-radius-vacm-04.txt, the structure of section 6
seems a bit over-wrought:

   6.  Relationship to Other MIB Modules
     6.1.  Relationship to the VACM MIB
       6.1.1.  Extended VACM for RADIUS Authorization
       6.1.2.  VACM Extension for RADIUS Authorization
         6.1.2.1.  Dynamic Update of VACM and Extended VACM MIB
                   Module Objects
         6.1.2.2.  Purging Entries in the Extended VACM MIB Module
       6.1.3.  Elements of Procedure for Extended VACM
     6.2.  MIB modules required for IMPORTS

Furthermore, there is substantial redundancy between
6.1.1 through 6.1.2.2 and 6.1.3.

I'd like to propose a re-organization / collapse to something
like this:

   6.  Relationship to Other MIB Modules
     6.1.  Relationship to the VACM MIB
     6.2.  MIB modules required for IMPORTS

   7.  Elements of Procedure
     7.1. Sequencing Requirements
     7.2. Actions Upon Session Establishment Indication
       7.2.1. Creation of Entries in extVacmSecurityToGroupTable
       7.2.2. Creation of Entries in vacmSecurityToGroupTable
       7.2.3. Update of vacmGroupName
     7.3. Actions Upon Session Termination Indication
       7.3.1. Deletion of Entries from extVacmSecurityToGroupTable
       7.3.2. Deletion of Entries from vacmSecurityToGroupTable

I think this would make the document easier to read, understand, and
implement.  Comments?

Randy
