8 Flow Identity Extension for HELD
9 draft-bellis-geopriv-flow-identity-01
11 Abstract
13 Identity Extensions using an IP address and port number to request a
14 location based on an individual packet flow have been previously
15 specified by the GEOPRIV Working Group.
17 However certain kinds of NAT require that identifiers for both ends
18 of the packet flow must be specified in order to unambiguously
19 satisfy the location request.
21 This document specifieds a Flow Identity Extension for the HTTP-
22 Enabled Location Delivery (HELD) Protocol to support this
23 requirement.

74 1. Introduction
76 Work at the Emergency Location Working Group of NICC Standards Ltd
77 (the UK's telecoms standards body) prompted the addition of Port
78 Number identifiers in HELD Identity [RFC6155] to allow HELD [RFC5985]
79 requests for target Devices that are behind a NAT device.
81 Subsequent analysis has determined that in the presence of particular
82 types of NAT device, and in particular Carrier Grade NATs, it is
83 necessary to know the complete tuple of (layer 3 protocol, layer 4
84 protocol, source address, source port, destination address,
85 destination port) in order to unambiguously identify a flow, and
86 therefore the true target Device.
88 This document creates an XML Schema and URN Sub-Namespace for a Flow
89 Identity Extension to support this requirement.
91 2. Conventions used in this document
93 The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
94 "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
95 document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].
97 3. Usage
99 An example HELD request is show below:
101
103 geodetic
104
106
107 192.168.1.1
108 1024
109
110
111 10.0.0.1
112 80
113
114
115
117 The element MUST contain:
119 o a "layer3" attribute with a value of "ipv4" or "ipv6".
121 o a "layer4" attribute with a value of "udp" [RFC0768], "tcp"
122 [RFC0793], "sctp" [RFC4960], "dccp" [RFC4340], or a decimal
123 integer representing any applicable protocol from the IANA
124 Assigned Internet Protocol Numbers Registry.
126 and MAY optionally contain:
128 o a "target" attribute with a value of "src" (default) or "dst" to
129 indicate which end of the flow is the "target" of the
130 with respect to the HELD protocol.
