Ralph,

I think overloading DHCP for access authentication is a bad idea. DHCP was
not designed for that purpose. I guess I need to communicate this on the
int-area list. But anyway you know my opinion at least in the DHC WG.

Authentication is something that happens at every layer with every 
application. Terminal access was designed without authentication, that 
does not mean we do it like that today.

 I do not think we can take the argument of it was not designed for x as 
a reason to stay in the past.

Ric

We talked about the DSL requirements earlier on this list. Now
they have sent us a liaison statement regarding what they would
like to do:

"At this time, we would like to make the IETF aware that during
our most recent DSL Forum quarterly meeting, the Architecture
and Transport Working Group agreed to seriously consider adopting
a mechanism such as that proposed in draft-pruss-dhcp-auth-dsl-01.txt
or draft-zhao-dhc-user-authentication-02. We understand that the authors
of these specifications intend to produce a combined document soon.
The DSL Forum formally requests that the IETF adopt this as a work
item, and would appreciate being advised of progress as soon as
possible.

Our next quarterly meeting is December 10-13, in Lisbon, Portugal."


How do we feel about this? Is this a good idea, considering the DSL
architecture? How will it affect DHCP the protocol? How would
you go about making DHCP extensions so that they work best
for all possible environments and not just DSL? Is anyone
already working on the combined draft promised above? Are
there any other choices that we should recommend instead?

I would like to hold the discussion on this in this list until
we've determined that the DHCP protocol is the right tool
for the job. If it is, we can recharter DHC WG again to add
the actual development work there. (DHC is right now
being rechartered but that recharting is mostly a cleanup
and not the addition of functionality to do this.)

At Ralph's request, I've gone back and read the archives for this  
discussion.   Much learned and useful argument has been presented,  
including Stig's most recent objection, which is certainly a good  
valid technical objection.

However, what I have *not* noticed, which I find kind of stunning, is  
anybody from the "let's do it" side of the argument answering  
Iljitsch's very cogent and telling objection here:

http://www1.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/int-area/current/msg01014.html

This objection is a showstopper.   If it can't be answered, there is  
no chance that this protocol can ever be deployed.   All the  
technical and procedural objections that have been discussed here are  
irrelevant if this one objection can't be answered.

So I think that before any further discussion on the merits of the  
wire protocol go forward, perhaps it would behoove this learned body  
to actually address Iljitsch's objection.   I must confess that I  
have not read every message in the archive, because there are a  
remarkable lot of them, so if someone can point me at the place where  
Iljitsch's objection was shown to be unnecessary, I would consider it  
a great favor.

Hi Ted,

The message you quote seems to be a what about the clients that do not 
support a new authentication method.  The answer is they work as always 
with PPPoE.

The requirement to remove PPPoE from the DSL architecture is driven by 
part technical and part emotional reasoning.  On the technical side you 
see a real need to remove the tunnelling aspect of PPPoE so that 
services (like multicast) can be injected in the layer 2 network.  The 
new services are supported by new equipment and the expectation is that 
the customer can take the new gear, put in his old credentials and come 
up on the new services.

The DSL networks are very, very large and very slow to migrate and the 
answer to Iljitsch's comment, they do not move unless they take the new 
service and the new gear.  The whole point of the design is to allow a 
migration from PPP to DHCP Auth without any touch to the AAA databases 
or requiring a big flag day for million user networks.

Regards,
Ric

Thanks David for providing some input on this. It's been very quiet from
others. I'm wondering how we should proceed with the layer 2 relay agent
stuff.

I'm thinking perhaps a first step could be an informational document
discussing what we mean by a layer-2 relay agent and different ways
they may be implemented and relevant issues like what is in the
current draft and also what David point out here.

Perhaps also some scenarios where layer-2 agents are useful.

Thoughts? What do you think Bharat?

Yes. I would also like to thank David for sharing this information. It
will really help understanding what people are looking for.

Yes. It looks like whatever assumption we made in the starting about the
general understanding of this domain is not correct. So we will have to
go one step back and talk about this in a generic terms.

We have already started working on an information document which
captures following things:

* What a Layer 2 Relay Agent is? Where it fits in and how it works?
* Various scenarios where a Layer 2 Relay Agent is used and how DHCP
server and Layer 3 Relay Agent behaves in its presence?

We are still working on it and I think it should be completed in couple
of days.

If anyone has any inputs in next couple of days, Please let us know.

Thanks & Regards,
Bharat

Hi,

I think it is a good idea to extend DHCP for providing subscriber=
 authentication given that other approaches are more complex. I think most=
 of the service providers supply their own Residential Gateways and it is=
 RGs which initiate PPPoE/DHCP. Those who use their modems in plain=
 bridging mode and rely on 3rd party devices (including PCs and other=
 routers) may have to continue with PPP for the migration.  Coming to the=
 alternative approaches

1. PANA needs considerable re-work like PANA snooping on DSLAM to install=
 L2 filters, and PANA support on RG,BNG and also a tweak in the way DHCP=
 functions.
2. There are some deployments which use 802.1x directly and let the DSLAM=
 talk to AAA  and do the authentication. In this case, RG initiates 802.1x=
 and DSLAM acts as authenticator. But it is always preferred to have the=
 authentication done at BRAS than at the DSLAM. So, 802.1x in its current=
 form may not be suitable for all the service providers offering DSL=
 service.

Ofcourse, if 802.1af is available which enables forwarding 802.1x frames to=
 BRAS, then this looks more efficient than changing DHCP. It depends on how=
 long it takes to become a standard.

Thanks,
Pavan Kurapati

Subject: [dhcwg] Discussion of dhc WG rechartering for DHCP authentication

Second try - still soliciting expert DHCP input (as well as any other
input you might care to provide) from dhc WG members...

There is a lengthy discussion about rechartering the dhc WG to take
on the DHCP authentication proposals in draft-pruss-dhcp-auth-
dsl-01.txt and draft-zhao-dhc-user-authentication-02 in the int-
area@ietf.org mailing list.  Both of these drafts have been submitted
for to the WG for review in the past, and neither, to date, has been
accepted as a dhc WG work iterm.  I've included a copy of the initial
posting, http://www1.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/int-area/current/
msg00957.html, below.  Because this discussion may lead to the
rechartering of the dhc WG to take on either or both of these drafts
as new work items, those of you not on the int-area mailing list
should consider reviewing the e-mail thread and contributing to the
discussion.

From: Jari Arkko <jari.arkko at piuha.net>
Date: Thu, 04 Oct 2007 23:22:15 +0300


We talked about the DSL requirements earlier on this list. Now
they have sent us a liaison statement regarding what they would
like to do:

"At this time, we would like to make the IETF aware that during
our most recent DSL Forum quarterly meeting, the Architecture
and Transport Working Group agreed to seriously consider adopting
a mechanism such as that proposed in draft-pruss-dhcp-auth-dsl-01.txt
or draft-zhao-dhc-user-authentication-02. We understand that the authors
of these specifications intend to produce a combined document soon.
The DSL Forum formally requests that the IETF adopt this as a work
item, and would appreciate being advised of progress as soon as
possible.

Our next quarterly meeting is December 10-13, in Lisbon, Portugal."


How do we feel about this? Is this a good idea, considering the DSL
architecture? How will it affect DHCP the protocol? How would
you go about making DHCP extensions so that they work best
for all possible environments and not just DSL? Is anyone
already working on the combined draft promised above? Are
there any other choices that we should recommend instead?

I would like to hold the discussion on this in this list until
we've determined that the DHCP protocol is the right tool
for the job. If it is, we can recharter DHC WG again to add
the actual development work there. (DHC is right now
being rechartered but that recharting is mostly a cleanup
and not the addition of functionality to do this.)

Hi, 

> 1. PANA needs considerable re-work like PANA snooping on DSLAM to install
> L2 filters, 

How is setting up a different filter on the devices that already know how to
setup filters considered a "considerable re-work"? I'd appreciate if you can
tell us how this is anything more than simply setting up a filter rule.

> and PANA support on RG,BNG 

I hope you are aware that what appears like saving PANA implementation on RG
and BNG are in fact coming back in the form of DHCP growing PANA from within
-- with all the problems associated with that unfortunate merger.

> and also a tweak in the way DHCP

Please explain this one. I'm not sure what you are referring to.

Thanks.

I'm somewhat concerned about this as well, I'd like to see some
comment from other server implementors.  If they've seen more issues
than I have, the same issues, or no issues at all, that's all useful
information.

I think that's an excellent idea, 'documenting existing operational
practices,' which really helps frame new work in this area.  I just
want to add that this is more work for *someone*, by which I mean not
me...I just have too much on my plate right now to do more than read
and review.  So I'm happy to accept whatever work in this area as can
find willing authors. :)

I was talking about introducing another element in DSLAMs to apply filters=

After receiving DHCP offer, the client takes the offered IP address and PAA=
 address and initiate PANA (instead of doing traditional Request/Ack=
 process and then make use of the IP address). This is one tweak. And then=
 based on PANA result you restart the DHCP Discover process and take the=
 other IP address. So, isnt there a change in the way DHCP is done?

Thanks.

The devices currently install these filters based on DHCP snooping.  In
our proposal current architecture use of the DHCP ack will still trigger
drive the source address verification on the first network hop, exactly
as they do today.

With PANA, these devices which are the whole of the transmission edge
would all need to get a new PANA snooping enabled code base, with all
the filtering use cases around that.  New ideas like authenticated and
unauthenticated IP addresses and policy for those need to be hooked to
new filters that operate on IP streams. A snooping version of PANA or
some sort of PANA grafting to a policy distribution mechanisms.

That more new stuff than I care to count can charitably called
"considerable re-work", more it should be pretty obvious from ethernet 
security is not the application for PANA.  This application is deeply 
entwined with layer 2, PANA is clearly aimed at IP authentication and is 
not a layer 2 or in the DHCP Auth case layer 2.5 application.

I wonder why you keep driving this square peg into a round hole.  The
first entry of the PANA FAQ is that PANA is layer 2 agnostic and you
seem determined to undo that.

I would like to clarify, if the following scenario is valid, as per RFC
3633:

1) DHCP Server responds with "x" prefixes, in reponse to Client REQUEST
message.
2) The client sends RENEW message, with "x" prefixes in IAPD option.
3) Then Server responds with "y" prefixes( where "y" > "x"), in the REPLY
message.

Should client accept the REPLY message from Server, as valid REPLY message
or Not?

regards
Rav i

Thanks for the reply.
So in that case, The client should also accept the newly added prefixes in
RENEW message. Am I right?

I guess you are considering a call flow where a temporary IP address is
assigned using DHCP, instead of configuring a link-local IP address. OK,
even in that case, I don't see why you stop short of completing the full
DHCP for pre-PANA address. 

You can either do:

1. CPE configures a link-local address
2. CPE discovers PAA (via DHCP or some other mechanism)
3. CPE runs PANA
4. CPE configures "session IP address" using DHCP

Or,

1. CPE configures a pre-PANA IP address using DHCP
2. CPE runs PANA
3. CPE configures "session IP address" using DHCP


I cannot think of why you'd need a tweak for DHCP.

If we run PANA with link-local IP address, then we can still utilize DHCP
snooping as usual.

Not sure how difficult that is, but note that you need that even for your
DHCP solution when running DHCPv6 -- the link-local address is already
configured on the CPE before executing DHCP.

Not sure I understand this either. Could you please explain?

Have you read RFC 4058? 

   DSL networks are a specific example where PANA has the potential for
   addressing some of the deployment scenarios.  Some DSL deployments do
   not use PPP [RFC1661] as the access link-layer (IP is carried over
   ATM and the subscriber device is either statically or DHCP-
   configured).  The operators of these networks are left either using
   an application-layer web-based login (captive portal) scheme for
   subscriber authentication, or providing a best-effort service only as
   they cannot perform subscriber authentication required for the
   differentiated services.  The captive portal scheme is a non-standard
   solution that has various limitations and security flaws.


PPP-less DSL networks have been one of the deployment scenarios we had
identified from the very beginning. So it is not an afterthought.

There is no need to confuse things. PANA is not dependent on a specific L2
because it carries EAP above IP. How is that a mismatch with the problem
DSLF is facing?

The PANA idea if using short lease/long lease DHCP address switching in 
DSL deployments is simply not feasible.  BRAS's with over 60K 
subscribers are common and many providers have central city pops of more 
than a million subscribers.

During a pop restart the 60 second lease on a million subscribers would 
at best result in a sustained load of more than 16000 DHCP requests / 
second smashing through the relays and into the DHCP servers until the 
users had gradually authenticated.

Does the short lease/long lease scenario scale the DHCP server load  
by more than a factor of two?

With the recent discussions around Layer 2 Relay Agents (such as that  
described in DSL Forum TR-101 Appendix B) has there been consideration  
of the equivalent for IPv6?

Today Layer 2 Relay Agents are an integral part of TR-101 when N:1  
VLANs are used. As we move towards IPv6 deployments there is a desire  
to keep the fundamental layer 2 architecture (N:1) which suggests a  
similar function for DHCPv6 in the DSLAM.
Like the current DSL Forum L2 DHCPv4 Relay Agent, the purpose for the  
relay agent is to add DHCPv6 Remote ID (equivalent to DHCPv4 Option  
82) so that a server can determine policy based on value matching.

In DHCPv6 things become more challenging as for starters there is no  
real "layer 2". There seem to be two general options:

1) Implement a DHCPv6 Relay on the DSLAM
	- Implication is that the DSLAM must then have a IPv6 address (link- 
local) and stack, participating as an actual node in the N:1 VLAN (ie,  
the DSLAM should perform DAD and possibly ND)
	- As the DSLAM does not act as an IPv6 router, the Relay-Forward link  
address would be unspecified and thus requires the addition of  
Interface ID
	- The interface ID itself could then be used to convey the "circuit"  
to the router

2) DSLAM inserts Option 37 (Remote ID) into DHCPv6 messages
	- Inserts information into a client-sourced Solicit without the  
client knowledge
	- Minimal impact on the DSLAM (no need for complete IPv6 stack
	- Not supported by DHCPv6 (RFC 3315) as Option 37 is a Relay Agent  
Option

I wouldn't suggest the above satisfactorily explores the issues  
relating to DHCPv6 Relay Agents in a DSLAM, but hopefully it may stir  
some ideas. IPv6 deployments are just on the horizon for carriers but  
without clear directives we could see multiple (and incompatible)  
approaches.

My apologies if this has been discussed prior (I couldn't find any  
direct references in the archives)


Regards,

- David

I believe it has been discussed...it's an integral part of DHCPv6,
this seems to have been a design consideration.  The things we've been
talking about are places where perhaps some clarification is in order;
in particular that they will simply behave like a regular DHCPv6 relay
agent - the only exception that they will send a zero-filled
link-address value (3315 makes no explicit statement about what to do
here, and some implementers have asked if they should fill it with a
link-local address...).

For this reason, servers use the outermost link-address value that
is nonzero for client link detection ("unless otherwise configured"),
something that is also not concretely defined ("exampled?") in 3315.

Thanks David,

This aligns with what I had assumed for option 1. I'd assume its also  
legal to set the IP destination of this DHCPv6 Relay-Forward to the  
All-DHCPv6-Servers MC address (fe02::1:2)? One consequence of  
implementing a full DHCPv6 relay on the DSLAM is that the DSLAM is now  
an IPv6 host within each VLAN and must therefore respond to DAD and ND  
from both clients and the BNG (as an example, of course there is far  
more than this). This could introduce significant complexity into the  
implementation with little apparent benefit, after all the relay agent  
in the DSLAM is not trying to unicast the traffic directly to a server  
- it is simply inserting Remote-ID.

When you say it has been discussed, does that imply a preliminary  
conclusion has been reached? I don't suppose you know roughly when it  
was discussed so I could trawl through the archives? While DHCPv6  
relay is an integral part of RFC 3315 I'm not aware of a discussion  
around TR-101 L2 DHCPv6 Relay, though I see there was one recently for  
IPv4.

Regards,

-David

There a confluence of two design directions in DSL architecture coming 
together driving the next generation of IP session requirements in DSL 
Forum.

One direction comes from small greenfield networks and the move to 
ethernet, they have been deploying DSL with DHCP and Option 82 line 
details providing the identity criteria to configure the host but also 
the L2 and L3 edges.  Most of the DSL BRAS vendors now allow the BRAS to 
use DHCP attributes trigger configuration retrieval for the BRAS from 
RADIUS.

The second comes from large long standing PPPoE/PPPoA networks which 
have massive databases of existing users and want to allow a gradual 
migration to ethernet service delivery but not require churn in the 
customer authentication database.

Finally DSL architecture is all about scaling (I guess SP engineering 
always is) where we have BRAS's with 60K+ subscribers on and millions of 
users on the network, we try set everything up at the same time and do 
it once.  To be clear we did not start off by trying to invent something 
new here, we went through many existing approaches before we got here today.

I think if you take the authentication question in the DSL architecture 
context, the simple questions that are probably bugging you like "Why 
did they not just use 802.1x?" might be clearer:

The current recommended DSL Forum architecture is in TR-101:
http://www.dslforum.org/techwork/tr/TR-101.pdf

The current draft of next generation WT-148 is:
http://www.arkko.com/ietf/intarea/dsl2006.887.03.doc

The living list of requirements for authentication for WT-146 is:

That&#8217;s not the point. I agree that we do authentication at several
layers today. Access auth, SIP auth, etc.<br>
But what the I-D is proposing is basically extending DHCP to accomplish
access auth.<br>
For access auth, there are several mechanisms today. Do we need DHCP to
solve the access-auth problem as well?<br>
  <br>
What is the primary reason/argument for doing access auth via DHCP? Is
it an optimization or is it because there is no other way to solve the
access auth problem in the domain that you are looking at?<br>
  </span></font></blockquote>
There a confluence of two design directions in DSL architecture coming
together driving the next generation of IP session requirements in DSL
Forum.<br>
<br>
One direction comes from small greenfield networks and the move to
ethernet, they have been deploying DSL with DHCP and Option 82 line
details providing the identity criteria to configure the host but also
the L2 and L3 edges.&nbsp; Most of the DSL BRAS vendors now allow the BRAS
to use DHCP attributes trigger configuration retrieval for the BRAS
from RADIUS.<br>
<br>
The second comes from large long standing PPPoE/PPPoA networks which
have massive databases of existing users and want to allow a gradual
migration to ethernet service delivery but not require churn in the
customer authentication database.<br>
<br>
Finally DSL architecture is all about scaling (I guess SP engineering
always is) where we have BRAS's with 60K+ subscribers on and millions
of users on the network, we try set everything up at the same time and
do it once.&nbsp; To be clear we did not start off by trying to invent
something new here, we went through many existing approaches before we
got here today.<br>
<br>
I think if you take the authentication question in the DSL architecture
context, the simple questions that are probably bugging you like "Why
did they not just use 802.1x?" might be clearer:<br>
<br>
The current recommended DSL Forum architecture is in TR-101:

        <br>
We talked about the DSL requirements earlier on this list. Now<br>
they have sent us a liaison statement regarding what they would<br>
like to do:<br>
        <br>
"At this time, we would like to make the IETF aware that during<br>
our most recent DSL Forum quarterly meeting, the Architecture<br>
and Transport Working Group agreed to seriously consider adopting<br>
a mechanism such as that proposed in draft-pruss-dhcp-auth-dsl-01.txt<br>
or draft-zhao-dhc-user-authentication-02. We understand that the authors<br>
of these specifications intend to produce a combined document soon.<br>
The DSL Forum formally requests that the IETF adopt this as a work<br>
item, and would appreciate being advised of progress as soon as<br>
possible.<br>
        <br>
Our next quarterly meeting is December 10-13, in Lisbon, Portugal."<br>
        <br>
        <br>
How do we feel about this? Is this a good idea, considering the DSL<br>
architecture? How will it affect DHCP the protocol? How would<br>
you go about making DHCP extensions so that they work best<br>
for all possible environments and not just DSL? Is anyone<br>

there any other choices that we should recommend instead?<br>
        <br>
I would like to hold the discussion on this in this list until<br>
we've determined that the DHCP protocol is the right tool<br>
for the job. If it is, we can recharter DHC WG again to add<br>
the actual development work there. (DHC is right now<br>
being rechartered but that recharting is mostly a cleanup<br>
and not the addition of functionality to do this.)<br>

First of all, there is no way use of PANA would lead to more DHCP traffic.
How can that be true when carrying EAP over DHCP always at the minimum
contribute 2 additional round-trips just for the sake of transporting EAP?  

In the worst case (DHCP-configured pre-PANA address), there are two round
trips for that 1st DHCP. Even in that case PANA is no worse than DHCP-auth.

And then there are better cases, e.g. use of link-local address as pre-PANA
address, rapid commit, etc.

As for your 11-msg PANA call flow count, the example you used is the most
verbose one. If you turn on the optimizations (agent-side initiation,
piggybacking) it reduces to 2 round trips.


So, in the worst case scenario (full dhcp, pana, another full dhcp), PANA
has additional 2 round-trips. By kicking in more optimized deployment
choices, this difference can be diminished.

Eric - I was mostly responding to Ric's description of the excessive  
load on DHCP servers in the short-lease/long-lease scenario.  As I  
understand the short-lease/long-lease scenario, if we assume that  
authentication takes place in the short-lease window, the load on the  
DHCP servers would double.  Significant, sure, but not game-changing  
in the way Ric implied.

Hello,=20

We have just submitted a new draft proposing an NTP option for DHCPv6.=20

The goal of this draft is to standardize automatic configuration of
NTPv4 (IPv6) clients over DHCPv6.
We think there is currently no satisfactory solution for configuring
NTPv4 clients from a centralized DHCPv6 server.

We'd be very happy to hear feedback about the draft, and I'm planning to
ask that it becomes a WG draft eventually.

Here's a url:

=20
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-gayraud-dhcpv6-ntp-opt-00.txt


Thanks,

Richard and Benoit

I think he was meaning that the client use the prefixes in the REPLY in
response to the RENEW.

And, yes that is what the client should do.

Basically, the client should do what is in the Reply (RFC 3315 has some
text about this for addresses, not sure if 3633 duplicated that for
prefixes). For those prefixes that are in the Reply and the client
already has information, update the prefix lifetimes [note that the NEW
lifetimes might be 0 if the server is attempting to revoke the
prefixes]. For those prefixes that are in the Reply for which the client
has no information, it should "install" them. And, those prefixes the
client already has but are NOT in the reply, it should leave them be.

I don't understand what you mean by a client accepting prefixes in a
RENEW message.

if you mean that the client includes the new set of prefixes in a
subsequent RENEW message, then that is correct.

I'd like to discuss what should be done about
draft-volz-dhc-3942-status-00. It has expired and while I could simply
make a few edits (such as addressing 208-211) and resubmit, it seems
silly to do that if there is no support or interest for the DHC WG.

I did ask the DHC WG in early October about next steps for this draft,
but it didn't go anywhere.

We need to give IANA information about updating the DHCP options
registry.

Hi all,

I have reviewed the new version and it satisfies my AD review
concerns with the exception of the below minor issues.

Also, I expect that the draft also has to satisfy DHC WG's review,
and address the issues raised by Bernie. I have not looked
at those yet, Bernie have you?

>>         id-type
>>
>>            The type of Home Network Identifier:

>   

I still disagree that this is needed, but I'm not making this
a blocking comment if the WG wants to do it.

Text was changed, but it still assumes the data comes from AAAH only.
Suggested edit:

OLD:
   This option carries the home network information which was
   transferred to the NAS from AAAH by using [I-D.ietf-mip6-radius].
NEW:
   This option carries the home network information for the mobile
   node (the NAS may know this, for instance, through AAA by
   using [I-D.ietf-mip6-radius]).

>>            OPTION_MIP6-HNID (TBD)
>>     
> Do you really have to mix underscore and dash in the same symbol?
>   

Some of this still remains: OPTION_MIP6-HNINF (TBD).

Jari

Hi all,

I have reviewed the new version and it satisfies my AD review
concerns with the exception of the below minor issues.

Also, I expect that the draft also has to satisfy DHC WG's review,
and address the issues raised by Bernie. I have not looked
at those yet, Bernie have you?

I still disagree that this is needed, but I'm not making this
a blocking comment if the WG wants to do it.

Text was changed, but it still assumes the data comes from AAAH only.
Suggested edit:

OLD:
   This option carries the home network information which was
   transferred to the NAS from AAAH by using [I-D.ietf-mip6-radius].
NEW:
   This option carries the home network information for the mobile
   node (the NAS may know this, for instance, through AAA by
   using [I-D.ietf-mip6-radius]).

>>            OPTION_MIP6-HNID (TBD)
>>    =20
> Do you really have to mix underscore and dash in the same symbol?

Some of this still remains: OPTION_MIP6-HNINF (TBD).

I haven't had much time to do a careful review, but from a quick scan at
least the DHCPv6 options and suboptions are now formatted appropriately.

There's a lot of reserved fields, and perhaps there are plans to use
them, but usually it is difficult to predict the future and sometimes
best to remove stuff like that. But, it is your call.

I also wonder whether the 3.3.1 Home Network Information sub-options
might not be 1 through 6 (instead of 1-3), and incorporate the V bit
into the sub-opt-code. Perhaps you don't even need all 6 values (not
sure if they can all have both values of the V bit). But, that's really
your call.

I think the IANA considerations should also request IANA to start a
registry for the sub-options (3.2.1 & 3.3.1)? Or, how will that space be
managed? And, usually IANA wants to know how future values are to be
assigned (standards action or ...) if it is charged with maintaining a
registry. You'll get that comment during the IANA review if you don't
include it.

I also wonder whether anyone needs to manage the "id-type" space? Or
will there never be any more of these values? Or, is that already
something managed elsewhere in the Mobile IP WG documents (if so,
providing a cross reference to that document would be useful).

I'd also suggest that when FQDN's are mentioned (such as in 3.2.1, "When
the sub-opt-code is set to 3, the Home Network Information field MUST
contain the FQDN as described in [RFC1035]."), you reference RFC 3315,
Section 8 regarding the encoding. Just saying "as described in
[RFC1035]" doesn't tell anyone how it is encoded -- we want all FQDNs to
be DNS wire encoded.

In section 4.3, what's the value of "It may include Interface-Id option,
Client Identifier option according to [RFC3315]." First, interface-id is
usually a RELAY AGENT option (so it may be in the Relayed
Information-Request), but I don't understand why pointing out these two
options is necessary (there are a lot of other options that could be in
an Information-Request or the Relay-Forw part of the message. Nothing in
that section ever references using either of these options for anything.
So, I'd drop that sentence.

Similar text ("The mobile node SHALL also include the OPTION_CLIENTID
[RFC3315] to identify itself to the DHCP server." and later "The relay
agent MAY include the Interface-Id option [RFC3315] in the Relay-forward
message.") is also in 4.1.

[KC>] Empty string w/o this id-type indication will be ambiguous since
it won't convey the case for value 2 (no preference). No preference is a
common way for the MN to convey to the network that it does not really
have a preference for the domain from which it wants to bootstrap MIP6
info.

[KC>] The text says "the NAS _may_ know this....". Therefore, other ways
are allowed too, but nothing wrong in giving an example, IMHO.

[KC>] Empty string w/o this id-type indication will be ambiguous since
it won't convey the case for value 2 (no preference). No preference is a
common way for the MN to convey to the network that it does not really
have a preference for the domain from which it wants to bootstrap MIP6
info.

[KC>] The text says "the NAS _may_ know this....". Therefore, other ways
are allowed too, but nothing wrong in giving an example, IMHO.

Hello,

A possible usage of all the NTP parameters specified in the new options
is to configure router gateway . In that scenario, the goal of a Service
Provider or an Enterprise IT  is to autoconfigure the gateway as much as
possible, including some NTP client behavior, in order to keep the
control. An additional benefit is that the gateway can be shipped to
remote sites virtually without any configuration while keeping full
control of the NTP behavior.

Following that line of thought, I may still see a need for  "minpoll,
maxpoll, I and B fields".

Considering a central DHCP server, the use of remote-id [RFC4649] or
just link-id may tell the server from where=20
the request is coming then giving it the knowledge of the delay to
apply.
In the case of a DHCP server hosted by the first hop, the DHCP server is
well positioned to know the delay.

Considering the current option format which includes more than IP
addresses, the choice of multiple occurrences of the=20
 same option looks sensible. Should we reduce the new options to IPv6
addresses only, a list makes more sense.

I think that you should eliminate the minpoll, maxpoll, I and B fields,
which would mean you could eliminate the reserved field, although you
might want to keep it.

As a policy request, maxpoll is useless. How can you specify the maximum
poll interval? That just doesn't make sense.

The minpoll parameter make some sense, but since you are depending on
the client implementation to obey it, it seems likely that any such
implementation will either get minpoll right or not. If it gets it
right, then the minpoll parameter is not needed, and if it gets it wrong
then it probably won't be obeyed anyway.

I just don't see the point in having the I field since that is pretty
much a client side kind of issue. The use of the B field might be useful
in some weird circumstances, but I don't see this as something that the
server could know.

The multicast looks okay as is, although I would suggest that there be
advice to leave delay as 0 if possible. The proper delay doesn't seem to
me to be likely to be known by the server and possibly different across
a subnet.

I am not sure about the idea of allowing multiple instances. Is that
normal for DHCP? I understand the need to have multiple addresses
returned, I would have thought a single list would have made more sense,
but that is a DHCP thing, not a NTP thing, so I leave that to the DHCP
experts.

RFC 3633 does not specify regarding "How Delegating Router selects
prefixes to be given to the clients"
Is there a common algorithm followed by the Servers that support
Prefix Delegation, for this purpose.

>From the documentation of Dibbler, I found the foolowing algorithm:

1. client didn't provide any hints: one pre=0Cx from each pool will be gran=
ted
2. client has provided hint and that is valid (supported and unused):
requested pre=0Cx will be granted
3. client has provided hint, which belongs to supported pool, but this
pre=0Cx is used: other pre=0Cx from
that pool will be asigned
4. client has provided hint, but it is invalid (not beloninging to a
supported pool, multicast or link-
local): see point 1

I would like to know, if majority of Server implementations use the
above algorithm to allot prefixes to the client.

regards
Ravi

I reviewed this draft, even though I'm in the middle of reviewing the
autokey draft, and I find it misconceived.

1) The draft seems geared to only the reference implementation of NTP
rather than being implementation agnostic. There is also reference to
SNTP which the reference implementation is not and in any case SNTP
implementations are likely to have different terms and requirements for
configuration.

2) The server must never be specified as an IP address but always as a
DNS name. If you wish to use only IPv6 there are options to do so. It is
easy to configure a DNS server for the specific purpose if it is local
to the site. We have had too many incidents of hardcoded addresses which
cause major incorrect usage of ntp servers not to mention clients that
continue to try and use the same server months and even years after it
has stopped being an NTP server. The only time you might use an IPv6
address here is if the address is site-local or link-local. A future
enhancement to the reference implementation will requery the DNS for new
address information in the case of failure of responses from the
configured NTP server and will allow easy migration of NTP services.
This also ignores the pool option now available in the development NTP
reference code.

3) The additional fields that you specify should *never* be set unless
you understand exactly what you are doing. We always recommend the use
of iburst (and not i-burst BTW) so it's not necessary to specify this.
The use of burst contradicts the last sentence of the last paragraph of
Section 2.1. The use of minpoll and maxpoll is similarly bad for exactly
the same reasons. You need to have very special reasons to set these to
anything other than the default.

4) There is no autokey option even though the Section 6 discusses
security considerations which seem to be for DHCPv6 only without any
consideration whatsoever for NTP. These packet options provide a
convenient way of distributing autokey keys to the clients but it is not
 an option under this draft

5) The multicast option similarly has flaws. The only practical values
are FF02::101 and FF05::101 which are reserved for NTP usage unless you
are planning to use other ones. The delay however is position-dependent
on the wire and a DHCPv6 server is never going to know what that delay
is likely to be so there is no way for it to determine what to set it to.

6) I have not read either RFC 3315 or RFC4075 but section 6 Security
Considerations totally ignores NTP and other time issues. If you are
provisioning NTP on the client you *cannot* use any authentication
mechanism that assumes that the time on the client has any valid value.
Furthermore there is nothing to prevent the client receiving invalid NTP
configuration options. If DHCPv6 itself is using time-dependent
authentication mechanisms it is flawed, possibly fatally so since the
client will not have the correct time in the first place. I see no way
to fix this nor how to prevent a rogue system sending its own packets
and having them accepted as valid.

I'm going to stop here but I recommend that this draft does not proceed
and needs to be totally rewritten.

Danny

Hi,

A heads-up that to complement Gunter et al's RA-Guard draft, I have
submitted a problem statement draft based on IETF-69 discussions and
subsequent list discussions.

This captures comments on problem scenarios, possible solutions, and
includes potential new DHCPv6 features.   This discussions also highlighted
a possible requirement for a DHCPv6 option for on-link prefixes, which
should probably be taken forward in the DHC WG.

The details are as follows:

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.

	Title           : Rogue IPv6 Router Advertisement Problem Statement
	Author(s)       : T. Chown, S. Venaas
	Filename        : draft-chown-v6ops-rogue-ra-00.txt
	Pages           : 9
	Date            : 2007-11-12

When deploying IPv6 networks, whether IPv6-only or dual-stack,
routers are configured to use IPv6 Router Advertisements to convey
information to on link nodes that enable them to autoconfigure on the
network.  This information includes the implied default router
address taken from the observed source address of the Router
Advertisement (RA) message.  However, in some networks 'bogus' RAs
are observed, which may be present due to misconfigurations or
possibly malicious attacks on the network.  In this draft we
summarise the scenarios in which rogue RAs may be observed, and we
present a list of possible solutions to the problem.  The goal of
this draft is to present a framework around which solutions can be
proposed and discussed.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:

I suppose the argument here is not against provisioning services by IP 
address, but doing so across organizational lines, i.e. when you provide the 
service but don't provision the clients. In my experience NTP is one of those 
services, in which case I'd have to agree that it's a good idea to change 
this option from 'address' to 'DNS name'.

I need clarification regarding the following from RFC 3315:

If a client obtains multiple ipv6 addresses from DHCP server, Is it
possible to selectively renew only few addresses.

For instance:
Client obtains the addresses Addr1,Addr2,Addr3 from DHCP Server.
If client sends RENEW for Addr1 alone, do Server renew all the
addresses / Renews only the address sent by the client.

RFC 3315 specifies that " The client includes an IA option with all
addresses currently assigned to the IA in its Renew message".
It is not mentioned clearly in rfc the server behaviour, if client
doesnot include all the addresses obtained from Server, in RENEW
message.

Can someone please clarify this!

regards
Ravi

The server is really in control of what prefixes and addresses get sent
back to the client, so no, I don't think the client can control which
addresses it renews in this way.

Anyway, when would you do this?  It might help to say what underlying
problem you're trying to solve here.

This is server policy and up to the server implementation.

3315 doesn't detail how addresses are "generated". Some servers may use
sequential assignment. Others randomly generated.

Oh, I should have added that the server should provide multiple prefixes
if that is what's been configured -- the device could be multi-homed or
there could be a renumbering event sometime in the future and thus
multiple prefixes may indeed be active and valid.

This is server policy and up to the server implementation.

3315 doesn't detail how addresses are "generated". Some servers may use
sequential assignment. Others randomly generated.

Hmmm... I followed up this feedback with Bill Welch in more technical
detail, and if you remember it ended with a "And yes your observation is
correct, the DHCP auth solution with EAP has the same issues."

If you compare it with EAP/DHCP, which adds at least two additional
round-trips to usual DHCP, then you'd see even in that worst case (for PANA)
scenario, the DHCP traffic using PANA is same as that of EAP/DHCP solution.

You seem to assume the short leases are too short.

Yes. Ric said dedicated DHCP messages will carry EAP and in the very best
case that means two additional round-trips of DHCP for the sake of shuttling
EAP.

What requirements are you referring to? The ones that DSLF provided to IETF
does not really seem to talk about variations you are referring to.

Have you read the PANA spec? 

All these optimizations are documented there. Of course you cannot find call
flows depicting every possible scenario in this IETF document.

All,

I think it might be useful for DHCP clients to use a different port, other than
68/546.

One use case is when someone wants to run multiple clients on a single
interface. It is possible to write a client that request multiple addresses now,
but running separate clients has some benefits: clients that only manage a
single lease are simpler, and many existing clients could be easily changed to
bind to a different port and add a new option. Plus you get a (small) degree of
fault isolation with separate clients.

Another use case is for testing and debugging. Administrators could use
DHCPLEASEQUERY (or maybe DHCPINFORM) to learn about their network, but since
answers go to reserved ports, the uses are slightly limited. Plus it is much
easier to simulate a set of clients if you can run them all on a single box.

If this is not considered generally useful I might just make it an ISC vendor
option (for our own testing), but I think it could have wider application.

Please let me know what you think!

Hm... I just realized that I didn't explain the actual proposal. :(

The idea is that if clients did want to use a different port, they would include
an option with the port number when the sent a packet.

I know some DHCP servers would drop the queries, and there are firewalling
issues, but these can be addressed in the long term.

We respond to whatever the source port was *by default*, and allow an 
administrative override that forces responses to a particular dest port (68 
being the obvious choice). That way you can skip the need for a client 
option.

My main concern would be relay agents not handling it correctly.

My other concern is that on a practical level, it's not the case that
DHCP servers will respond incorrectly; rather, they will respond to the
standard port if they don't implement the option.   So I don't see any
way to reliably get the behavior you are hoping for; that is, I don't
see what good it would do.

In the case of something like leasequery, it seems like you'd need to
*inquire* whether the server would do port return, but expect the answer
to come to the usual port.   And then, if the answer was in the
affirmative, you could just send your unicast packets from a different
source port, with the same flag, and the server could answer to that
port.

This seems like it would have utility for things like DHCPINFORM and
DHCPLEASEQUERY, but not so much for regular DHCP action.   I'm also not
sure how broad the use for this would be outside of debugging - clearly
it's useful for debugging to be able to do DHCPLEASEQUERY from a
separate process on a machine that got its address using DHCP, but would
it ever happen in a real deployment?

So I guess I'm interested, but lukewarm, on the idea... :')

Hi,

       Based on the feedback received in last IETF and on mailing list, we=
 have created a document that provides information on Layer 2 Relay Agent=
 functionality and describes the changes in DHCP server, Relay Agents=
 because of the introduction of Layer 2 Relay Agent in different network=
 scenarios.

      Please review this document and let us know your=
 comments/suggestions.

Thanks & Regards,
Bharat

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts

   In some networks, DHCP servers rely on Relay Agent Information option
   appended by Relay Agents for IP address and other parameter
   assignment policies.  This works fine when End Hosts are directly
   connected to Relay Agents.  In some network configurations, one or
   more Layer 2 devices may reside between DHCP clients and Relay agent.
   In these network scenarios, it is difficult to use the Relay Agent
   Information option for IP address and other parameter assignment
   policies effectively.  So there is a need for the closest Layer 2
   device to append Relay Agent Information option in DHCP messages.
   These devices are typically known as Layer 2 Relay Agents.

   This document aims to describe the network scenarios where Layer 2
   Relay Agent is in use and also how it handles DHCP messages.

        command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
        a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail=
 readers
        exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
        "multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split

        how to manipulate these messages.

Interesting to hear that you do this by default. IMHO this should have been the
defined behavior all along. I wonder why this wasn't corrected, at least for DHCPv6?

I can't think of a way to change this in the protocol without potential pain.
Still, maybe a hack is possible. Something like:

- - Send the first reply to the UDP port in the packet.
- - If a retransmission is detected, send the reply to port 68 and the UDP port in
  the packet.

This will cause extra packets and delay, but mostly for clients that send from a
port other than 68 and expect a reply on port 68.

Actually, in this case a 1-byte option saying "don't send to port 68" might be
useful (0-byte in DHCPv6). That will prevent extra packets in the case where a
retransmission is required due to lost packets or busy servers.

Hi,

Can you please elaborate on the impact of using a link-local or
DHCP-assigned IP address prior to running access authentication? Details
would help us understand the level of impact, and let us see if we can
identify any remedies.

Thanks.

Well if you use link local you need to stop the DHCP client stack which 
means changing the DHCP stack which you have said is scary many times.  
Secondly to run PANA with link local to the NAS, you need to re engineer 
all the layer 2 SAVA security because the link local addresses look like 
spoofed addresses to the layer 2 switches and would be dropped. If you 
couple that with all the rest of the extra mess of PANA discovery stuff 
then it is obvious that DHCP authentication it is much, much cleaner and 
leaner.

If you run DHCP-assigned address prior to authentication.  The whole 
layer 2 network is exposed to attack by unauthenticated IP end-point.  
The SAVA done by DSLAMs and first hop switches is eliminated because 
unauthenticated  users have DHCP assigned addresses.  Not to mention 
thet obvious point that every renew during the unauthenticated period is 
extra messaging which for 60K-500K  subscriber access networks are 
effectively huge extra message loads on everything in the DHCP path.  
Plus the point that you are now saying that 60 seconds is too short for 
the renew, which means that from around 10-15 second logins, which we 
have today, the latency is going to 60 seconds +.  Worse than that, the 
worst time for access is after a massive power outage where we have 
heard of is 20 minutes during recoveries due to AAA server loads and for 
this vulnerable time with PANA the DHCP has 20 extra renew per client 
which is millions of extra messages smashing things up.

If the client used src port N, why would it not expect a reply on that same 
port? It seems to me that a client that's straddling two ports - 68 for 
inbound and something else for outbound - is already on thin ice.

Do you know of any clients that do this, or is this just debug code? And if 
it's debug code, why not allow the server to respond to the client's source 
port instead? That way you can transmit from as many source ports as you 
want.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Dynamic Host Configuration Working Group of the IETF.


	Title           : Rebind Capability in DHCPv6 Reconfigure Messages
	Author(s)       : D. Evans, R. Droms
	Filename        : draft-ietf-dhc-dhcpv6-reconfigure-rebind-02.txt
	Pages           : 5
	Date            : 2007-11-13

This document updates RFC 3315 to allow the Rebind message type to
appear in the Reconfigure Message option of a Reconfigure message,
which allows DHCPv6 servers to instruct clients to perform a Rebind
operation as well as a Renew operation.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dhc-dhcpv6-reconfigure-rebind-02.txt

To remove yourself from the I-D Announcement list, send a message to
i-d-announce-request@ietf.org with the word unsubscribe in the body of 
the message.
You can also visit https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/I-D-announce
to change your subscription settings.

Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the 
username "anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After 
logging in, type "cd internet-drafts" and then
	"get draft-ietf-dhc-dhcpv6-reconfigure-rebind-02.txt".

A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in
http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html
or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt

Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.

Send a message to:
	mailserv@ietf.org.
In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dhc-dhcpv6-reconfigure-rebind-02.txt".

NOTE:   The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.

I'm a little slow this morning... I can't figure out how this standard applies
to NTP. Can you explain what it means, from a protocol and a software point of
view (plain English preferred, technical gibberish okay, no legalese please)?

Hi Ralph,

Doubling the load on the DHCP servers probably will not change the game.

The extra load on the L3 Edge/BRAS could easily change the game (and
hence the emails from Peter (Redback) & Bill (Juniper)). =20

The extra complexity with the CPE has always been my biggest concern,
and is why I entered the thread many weeks ago.

? You say below "full dhcp, pana, another full dhcp".  Sounds like
doubling the DHCP traffic to me.

But there is another issue.  It is very normal for AAA servers to take
time for all the sessions to authenticate after a BRAS reboot or
pop-wide power failure.  PANA has the potential to introduce a large
amount of additional DHCP traffic simply due to short lease timer renews
being requested prior to authentication completion.

This sounds like a pretty effective distributed denial of service attack
to me.

I was trying to make the EAP method equivalent between the two cases.
Am I missing something?

I chose the best message flow I could find within
draft-ietf-pana-pana-18.  As I read your words above, I cannot match all
the potential variations to the DSLF requirements.  Is there another
documented DHCP+PANA message flow somewhere which meets the DSLF
requirements which I should use instead?

Subject: [ntpwg] Network Time Protocol (NTP) Options for DHCPv6

Hello,=20

We have just submitted a new draft proposing an NTP option for DHCPv6.=20

The goal of this draft is to standardize automatic configuration of
NTPv4 (IPv6) clients over DHCPv6.
We think there is currently no satisfactory solution for configuring
NTPv4 clients from a centralized DHCPv6 server.

We'd be very happy to hear feedback about the draft, and I'm planning to
ask that it becomes a WG draft eventually.

Here's a url:

Thanks,

Richard and Benoit

Guys,

Thanks for doing this.  I've been sporadically discussing this with
David Hankins.

I have added the URL below to the appropriate section at:

 http://support.ntp.org/Dev/GettingNtpdItsConfiguration

and for those of us who prefer using the TWiki over email for
development discussion, I volunteer the above as a place to (also) have
any discussion about this.

Hi Ric,

So I understand that the reason to use DHCP as a means to do the
authentication of the subscriber is from the perspective of:
1. Minimal impact to deployed large scale DSL networks
2. Reusing a protocol that is already used in DSL networks rather than
having to implement a new protocol because of the deployed base and
backwards compatibility

I think I understand your predicament a little better now.
I am just wondering if the DSL forum is going down the wrong path by
extending DHCP to solve a problem by taking this band-aid approach instead
of solving it the right way (whether that is 802.1x, PANA or whatever else)=
.

Ric,<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
That&#8217;s not the point. I agree that we do authentication at several la=
yers today. Access auth, SIP auth, etc.<BR>
But what the I-D is proposing is basically extending DHCP to accomplish acc=
ess auth.<BR>
For access auth, there are several mechanisms today. Do we need DHCP to sol=
ve the access-auth problem as well?<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
What is the primary reason/argument for doing access auth via DHCP? Is it a=
n optimization or is it because there is no other way to solve the access au=
th problem in the domain that you are looking at?<BR>

We talked about the DSL requirements earlier on this list. Now<BR>
they have sent us a liaison statement regarding what they would<BR>
like to do:<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
&quot;At this time, we would like to make the IETF aware that during<BR>
our most recent DSL Forum quarterly meeting, the Architecture<BR>
and Transport Working Group agreed to seriously consider adopting<BR>
a mechanism such as that proposed in draft-pruss-dhcp-auth-dsl-01.txt<BR>
or draft-zhao-dhc-user-authentication-02. We understand that the authors<BR=
>
of these specifications intend to produce a combined document soon.<BR>
The DSL Forum formally requests that the IETF adopt this as a work<BR>
item, and would appreciate being advised of progress as soon as<BR>
possible.<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
Our next quarterly meeting is December 10-13, in Lisbon, Portugal.&quot;<BR=
>
&nbsp;<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
How do we feel about this? Is this a good idea, considering the DSL<BR>
architecture? How will it affect DHCP the protocol? How would<BR>
you go about making DHCP extensions so that they work best<BR>
for all possible environments and not just DSL? Is anyone<BR>
already working on the combined draft promised above? Are<BR>
there any other choices that we should recommend instead?<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
I would like to hold the discussion on this in this list until<BR>
we've determined that the DHCP protocol is the right tool<BR>
for the job. If it is, we can recharter DHC WG again to add<BR>
the actual development work there. (DHC is right now<BR>
being rechartered but that recharting is mostly a cleanup<BR>
and not the addition of functionality to do this.)<BR>

I'm sorry, but I still don't see it. Are you saying that the router
is a DHCP client and gets the server from DHCP? Okay fine,
but how does minpoll, maxpoll, I and B get used? I still
don't see the point of maxpoll here at all, that is, I don't even
get what it means to the client to get this value imposed.
See, minpoll says "do not poll more often than this",
but maxpoll would mean "do not poll less often than this".
This just doesn't make sense to me.

Now, I could see the I and B meaning "do not do this" rather than "do 
this". If I and B are 0, then
it means to do whatever you want, but if they are 1, then do not do it. 
It doesn't
make sense to tell a client to use iburst when it wasn't going to 
anyway. Same with burts, although
in a strange set of ceircumstances I could imagine the need for burst 
being known centrally,
so maybe the B flag makes some kind of sense as is.

Oh, agreed, it is possible for the delay to be known. But I just don't 
think it is likely
that it will ever be used correctly in that scenario. All I said is that 
it should generally
be left at 0 unless there is a good reason not to.

I think that you should eliminate the minpoll, maxpoll, I and B fields,
which would mean you could eliminate the reserved field, although you
might want to keep it.

As a policy request, maxpoll is useless. How can you specify the maximum
poll interval? That just doesn't make sense.

The minpoll parameter make some sense, but since you are depending on
the client implementation to obey it, it seems likely that any such
implementation will either get minpoll right or not. If it gets it
right, then the minpoll parameter is not needed, and if it gets it
wrong then it probably won't be obeyed anyway.

I just don't see the point in having the I field since that is pretty
much a client side kind of issue. The use of the B field might be
useful in some weird circumstances, but I don't see this as something
that the server could know.

The multicast looks okay as is, although I would suggest that there be
advice to leave delay as 0 if possible. The proper delay doesn't seem to
me to be likely to be known by the server and possibly different across
a subnet.

I am not sure about the idea of allowing multiple instances. Is that
normal for DHCP? I understand the need to have multiple addresses
returned, I would have thought a single list would have made more sense,
but that is a DHCP thing, not a NTP thing, so I leave that to the DHCP
experts.

Brian,

We need to think about scenarios for server discovery. Without prejudice 
on the message formats, a virgin client might be directed to either:

1. Listen for broadcast/multicast on <address> and do/do not execute a 
volley. I like the delay field to enable/disable that and have added it 
to ntpd. In principle, the delay can be determined from the DHCP packets 
themselves, a feature that might be added.

2. Troll the pool at one of the pool DNS names, us.pool.ntp.org, etc. 
The client should be smart enough to use/not use iburst and preempt flags.

3. Specify a list of <addresses> to send to, each together with the mode 
and  minpoll. I don't think maxpoll is useful either.

4. Specify a manycast server group address, ttl limit and beacon interval.

In the broadcast/multicast, pool and manycast schemes, we need the 
optional tos floor and tos ceiling and tos cohort commands as well. All 
schemes may need the key ID or Autokey flag.

All this makes me nervous. A possible alternative is simply to send a 
configuration file like the ntpq program can now. However, this of 
course is implemention specific. It might be useful to provide the name 
of a local configuration file only. The most important thing is to make 
it flexible for use by current ntpd and possibly others.

I do not think you and Bill were talking about the same issues
in the email.

It is clear that any solution which requires a temporary ip-address
will create more turn on a BRAS, and the subscriber setup rate will
very likely go down compared to a solution which will finish 
authentication before ip-address allocation.

Right, I am fine with having the delay given and novolley specified. You 
can't determine the delay from the DHCP
packets because the DHCP server is likely not the NTP server. The DHCP 
server may be multiple hops away.

This argues for having another possible field/format, where a string for 
lookup is given.

What other mode than active client do you envision?

Interesting. I agree that a key needs to be specified somehow, but it is 
not clear
to me how to do it. We have to assume that the client does not have the 
same NTP
keys. However, we would like a way to specify a server and keys 
securely, so that
the security of the network depends only on the security of DHCP. Again 
I am not
up to date, *is* there a secure DHCP? If so, then how to get keys to the 
clients
becomes an issue.

It seems (as you said) that a general purpose configuration mechanism is 
needed. One that
is implementation neutral. We have talked in the past about config over 
LDAP and HTTP.
Maybe we need to revist that. It would not have to be built into ntpd, 
though, it could easily
live as a separate process.

Brian,

My model about the keys is that the DHCP server would supply a key ID 
for the NTP server(s) as configured, but not the keys themselves. The 
keys would have to be configured for the NTP server and client 
separately. The DHCP server would be responsible only for the opaque key ID.

There is an issue about the security of the DFCP server itself; that is 
another issue. I'm assuming the DHCP server is behind the firewall.

The mode specification could be any of the valid NTP modes. If client 
(3) it would be an ordinary client/server association. A means would be 
necessary to specify broadcast client, as that is not a mode in the 
strict sense. It could be symmetric active (1), in which case the victim 
would initiate that type association. To specify symmetric passive (2) 
means that the victim should wait for a symmetric active (1) packet. 
This does not seem useful.

Dave I can understand the ISC's goal in using DHCP but how does this
work for the users?

DHCP also has problems with being constrained to the same subnet unless
provisions are made for its propagation... maning that without special
provisions for propagating DHCP across a local subnet this may not be of any
use at all. Especially since today its VERY rare to find anyone who wants to
route DHCP through their network, so maybe the IETF's new NEA protocol could
be a solution for this???

I see what you mean, but I am not sure about the use case here.
Certainly if the keys are pre-configured on both the clients and the
servers, then the key id is a must.  But I am concerned about the
roaming laptop mode here. If I bring my laptop to a network, I would
like to be able to get enough info from the DHCP server to allow me
to securely connect to the server and have it be authenticated. Perhaps
a public key distribution scheme?

Right. Out of the realm of our discussion.

If you get a broadcast address to use then you should be a broadcast
client. I don't see the usefulness of a DHCP client being a symmetric
anything. Perhaps this is a failure of imagination on my part.

Brian,

Roaming laptops is what NTP Autokey is designed for. All a properly 
configued laptop would not need anything except a flag that says to use 
it and possibly the public group key. Heck with NTP; use Autokey to 
authenticate the server for anything.

Dave -
There is ANOTHER issue facing this WG and that is that just like the 
"description's" of the NTP Process the AutoKEY system needs to be 
accountable to a standard which allows data captured from such a source to 
be admitted in a court of law and now that there are formal standards many 
of the cool methods of delivering time over networks from a physics 
perspective dont mean squat now to the Courts.

The case that set this standard was called Lorraine v Markel CIVIL ACTION 
NO. PWG-06-1893 and it came out of the US District Court in Maryland on May 
4th 2007 from a Judge (a Chief Magistrate Judge) by the name of Paul Grimm. 
Google the actual ruling here: 
http://www.google.com/search?q=lorraine+v+markel&rls=com.microsoft:en-us:IE-SearchBox&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=ie7&rlz=1I7GGLF

Bluntly, the world changed a tad on May 4th and while this effort is pointed 
at the physics of operating NTP, these new controls impact any work with any 
other Standardized Protocol as well... What this means to people who NTP is 
a part of their commercial offering, is that they MUST apply these new 
standards to this code and its support as well, or they must use their own 
internal code-base's rather than depending on one here. I think this ruling 
re-set the bar heighth, and it is now much higher - even for an Academic 
Entity. As to how this effects this WG, we need to build tools that are 
capable of being used in these key application contexts or this protocol 
will likely be ultimately replaced.

Just my two cents,

Todd Glassey

Ralph,

The messages the DHCP servers will double. =20
The messages with L3 edge (BRAS) will more than double. =20
The messages with the CPE will more than triple. =20

(Below is some rough math. I might have missed a message or two, but the
general trend is what I am trying to show.)

-----------------------------------------
CPE Messages
-----------------------------------------
DHCP Auth, assuming a 2 message EAP Method, the messages used by EAP
would be equal
+ 6 Messages (draft-pruss-dhcp-auth-dsl-01)

PANA+DHCP Method
+ 4 Messages: DHCP 1st IP address
~ (+2) DHCP renews per 60 seconds until authenticated
+ 11 Messages PANA with BRAS (draft-ietf-pana-pana-18, section 4.1)
+ 4 Messages: DHCP 2nd IP address

-----------------------------------------
L3 Edge (BRAS) Messages
-----------------------------------------
DHCP Auth, EAP Method
+ 8 Messages (draft-pruss-dhcp-auth-dsl-01)

PANA Method
+ 4 Messages: DHCP 1st IP address
~ (+2) DHCP renews per 60 seconds until authenticated
+ 11 Messages PANA with CPE (draft-ietf-pana-pana-18, section 4.1)
+ 2 messages min for validating with EAP Server
+ 4 Messages: DHCP 2nd IP address

-----------------------------------------
L2 Edge (DSLAM or Access Switch) Messages
-----------------------------------------
DHCP Auth, EAP Method
+ 6 Messages snooped (draft-pruss-dhcp-auth-dsl-01)

PANA+DHCP Method
+ 4 Messages Snooped: DHCP 1st IP address
~ (+2) DHCP renews per 60 seconds until authenticated
If snooping: 11 Messages PANA (draft-ietf-pana-pana-18, section 4.1)
Else if explicit policy distribution like ANCP, ~4 messages (one policy
per address)
+ 4 Messages Snooped: DHCP 2nd IP address

Hi,

I set up a Linux-router using OpenSuSE 10.3. This router connects the
three networks with the companies network. Here are the facts:
- - Each network is powered by an own networkcard.
- - Each network is using its own logical IP-Pool.
My wishes:
- - All this should be done by one dhcp-server on the router/server.
The probs:
- - The subnets cannot be build using MAC-addresses, cause the laptops
are used in different rooms, but the teams are worging in the same rooms.

Is there any combination of options for the dhcpd.conf I can use to
manage all this?


Help needed!!

Thanks Karsten

Ric,

That=B9s not the point. I agree that we do authentication at several layers
today. Access auth, SIP auth, etc.
But what the I-D is proposing is basically extending DHCP to accomplish
access auth.
For access auth, there are several mechanisms today. Do we need DHCP to
solve the access-auth problem as well?

What is the primary reason/argument for doing access auth via DHCP? Is it a=
n
optimization or is it because there is no other way to solve the access aut=
h
problem in the domain that you are looking at?

Well, I agree, but happens to be the thin ice that the protocol defines as okay. :)

I think that RFC 2131 is the only place where this is defined:

   DHCP uses UDP as its transport protocol.  DHCP messages from a client
   to a server are sent to the 'DHCP server' port (67), and DHCP
   messages from a server to a client are sent to the 'DHCP client' port
   (68). A server with multiple network address (e.g., a multi-homed
   host) MAY use any of its network addresses in outgoing DHCP messages.

I don't know of any clients that send from a port other than 68 and expect a
reply on port 68. But if there are any, then they are following RFC 2131, and if
we change the specification then they will break even though they do the right
thing according to the RFC.

I don't really know if there are clients that send from a port other than 68 at
all. I guess from the server point of view it is "almost safe" to send back to
the originating port. You have experience with this, since it is how your
software operates - have you seen any problems with this in the field? Does
anybody ever set the option to change from this behavior?

Thinking about it, the problem is tricker from a client point of view. Since
servers may have the address hard-coded in, a generic client cannot assume that
a port other than 68 will ever work. I can imagine how to do this from a
operational point of view (try it with your server) or maybe from a OS point of
view (use port 68 by default, and if you want to run multiple clients try it and
give appropriate error messages if it doesn't work). But from a protocol point
of view? No idea. :(

Maybe the best thing is just to set it as a non-standard option in our server...

Originally we simply transmitted back to the source port, and I seem to recall 
having someone report that it was not strictly compliant behavior. That was 
many years ago, and IIRC it was an engineer writing in-house debug code. I'm 
not aware of anyone that's asked how to configure the server to enforce 
strict dest-port compliance since then, and our default is still to transmit 
to the source port. So in practice, for us, it hasn't been an issue at all if 
you discount the original report.

There's always the possibility that a user has figured out how to enforce 
dest-port compliance without asking, though.

If you make it an option that defaults to the opposite of ours, your behavior 
doesn't change, but you get the same flexibility.

Yeah - I hear this same statement from Systems Administrator's - the same 
buch of guys and girls that keep failing those IT Security Audits... so I 
look to their commentary as their way of getting out of doing a honest day's 
work. If that statement offfends you as much as a buch of Systems 
Administrator's trying to control the world of Information Security becuase 
they are too freaking lazy to 'do it right', well... you explain to me why 
so many folks fail those audits again and again ???

This ruling sets the world of the System Administrator on its arse and did 
so globally by eliminating the concept that there is no-such thing as a 
digital original. In fact there is and the issue is that while document 
conterfeiting used to be more difficult, now a days it is as easy as saying 
'cp file1-name counterfeit-file name'...

OK Shane, I personally think the ruling means that there are now 
requirement's for tight and reliable evidence ganthering and maintanence in 
all aspects of the use of something creating digital evidence, especially 
when those processes run automatically below the general control of the 
end-user... It sets a new bar-height for demonstrating the quality of the 
system and the security in place for its use. So in some senses its NOT the 
NTP protocol itslef but its use that are impacted. Certianly the integrity 
of the code management process will become a real issue.

For what its worth this matter is before the US Appellate Court right now to 
get it advanced into real precedent "standard" from the persusave precedent 
it is now and all concerned will need to understand this and comply with it.

> Can you explain what it means, from a protocol and a software point of
> view (plain English preferred, technical gibberish okay, no legalese 
> please)?

1)    REAL reliable NTP user models MUST be developed. That means Use 
Statment's and what the system will provide in the form of timestamps per 
second based on some baseline metric.

2)    A real TEST PLAN needs to exist for each program in the NTP Suite and 
that will  be executed by the supporting party. Its MUCH better for the 
commercial relying parties if they dont develop the core of this TEST PLAN 
but rather just customize the one used to pre-certify the operations of NTP 
in their environment.

3)    The entity holding the Code Base will have to take full responsibility 
for that as well, meaning that they will become liable for screwup's or 
damages that people suffer using the code.

4)    The "No warranty for fitness" language needs to be removed from the 
license IMHO, because if there is no accountability in the time transfer 
process there is no point in using it.

Hmmm- what would that mean for the ISC by the way? - could it step to the 
plate and put in place a secured and audited change control process and 
service? Could it and will it bear the expense of those?


Just my two cents.

Ted,

There may be much merit in the case you cite; however, this is a 
volunteer group and neither a cabal of lawyers nor capable of high 
finance. If you have a specific plan, are willing to direct and 
contribute to it and suffient labor is available, let's do it. If you 
have very specific proposals that can be implemented without serious 
committment of effort, let's hear that, too. Better yet, find a lawyer 
needing to fill out his required 100 hours of pro-bono time per year and 
have him translate your legal issues to actionable projects.

Hi Karsten,

Unfortunately the IETF DHC WG mailing list is the wrong place to ask.
This is a place for discussion of the IETF DHCP protocol itself, and
various IETF standards work related to DHCP.

I assume you are using the ISC DHCP software package, in which case
you should direct this question to the dhcp-users mailing list.  You
can learn more and subscribe here;

Hi,
 
  

It is clear that any solution which requires a temporary ip-address
will create more turn on a BRAS, and the subscriber setup rate will
very likely go down compared to a solution which will finish
authentication before ip-address allocation.
    

 
Can you please elaborate on the impact of using a link-local or
DHCP-assigned IP address prior to running access authentication? Details
would help us understand the level of impact, and let us see if we can
identify any remedies.
  

Well if you use link local you need to stop the DHCP client stack which
means changing the DHCP stack which you have said is scary many times.  

Alper> If you are using link-local IP address prior to PANA, that means you
don't attempt to configure an IP address using DHCP prior to successful
completion of PANA. That does not alter DHCP state machine.

Secondly to run PANA with link local to the NAS, you need to re engineer all
the layer 2 SAVA security because the link local addresses look like spoofed
addresses to the layer 2 switches and would be dropped. 

Alper> This statement gives me the impression that L2 SAVA is based on
snooping DHCP only and it cannot be touched at all. Well, this cannot be
true if you consider IPv6. It has to deal with link-local IP addresses and a
lot more. See
http://ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-baker-sava-implementation-00.txt. And
btw, somehow I see IPv6 is being characterized as a "future" thing that does
not exist today, but I know IPv6 is deployed in several DSL networks. 

If you couple that with all the rest of the extra mess of PANA discovery
stuff then it is obvious that DHCP authentication it is much, much cleaner
and leaner.



Alper> If you can provide a technical point regarding the discovery, we can
understand better.


If you run DHCP-assigned address prior to authentication.  The whole layer 2
network is exposed to attack by unauthenticated IP end-point.  The SAVA done
by DSLAMs and first hop switches is eliminated because unauthenticated
users have DHCP assigned addresses.  

Alper> I don't see anything wrong with SAVA there. Up until the host
reconfigures its IP address using second DHCP after successful PANA, there
is the pre-PANA address that SAVA system checks.

Alper> And. unauthenticated IP end-point does not have be a thread, because
the network can limit that host's traffic to just "running PANA with the
PAA."

Not to mention thet obvious point that every renew during the
unauthenticated period is extra messaging which for 60K-500K  subscriber
access networks are effectively huge extra message loads on everything in
the DHCP path.  

Alper> As I have explained to Eric, if you are concerned about "load on DHCP
path", loading more things to DHCP like access authentication is not going
to help with reducing that load. This is fundamentally contradicting.

Plus the point that you are now saying that 60 seconds is too short for the
renew, which means that from around 10-15 second logins, which we have
today, the latency is going to 60 seconds +.  

Alper> Sorry I couldn't follow this. What latency is that 60+? DHCP lease
for the pre-PANA address shall be long enough to accommodate typical access
authentication latency in order to reduce the possibility of renewals. 

 

Worse than that, the worst time for access is after a massive power outage
where we have heard of is 20 minutes during recoveries due to AAA server
loads and for this vulnerable time with PANA the DHCP has 20 extra renew per
client which is millions of extra messages smashing things up.



Alper> Have you considered how many EAP/DHCP retransmissions are going to
occur due to EAP retranmissions during that 20 minutes? Assuming no crazy
EAP implementation or configuration would have a 60-second timeout for
retranmissions, the answer is at least "more", if not "a lot more".

Alper

<RMP> Well do not run until after PANA state for DHCP is an alteration 
of the DHCP state machine and of course a change in the DHCP client.

<RMP>  Fred is proposing how SAVA for IPv6 could possibly work one day 
in the future.  There is a huge difference between that and the IPv4 
SAVA which is deployed.  I know of no residential DSL services in the 
work.  This is one thing I would love to learn I am wrong about, please 
name a provider doing residential IPv6 over DSL.

<RMP> Provide a side to side comparison of PANA verse DHCP Auth 
including L2 switches and SAVA security in L2 and it is very obvious. I 
notice you have been careful just to cast smoke over the number Eric put 
out but not provided your own.

<RMP> How?  Please specify which elements need to run what shiny new

<RMP>Latency from user line up until services is now some unspecified

<RMP>Assuming both proposals use the same EAP method through the AAA 
path, main difference is all the extra messages on the DHCP path to the 
server from PANA. Unless of course you fully couple PANA to the DHCP 
relay stack and do local caching for the relay responses as you have 
said in the past.  Which when one gets down to the real implementation 
impact of PANA has to do exactly the same things as DHCP Auth in the CPE 
and the BRAS DHCP stacks, and has the additional impacts to other 
elements that DHCP auth leaves untouched.

Pete - I notice that there are no references to other Mobile IPv4  
documents in this draft, which makes it difficult for someone like  
myself who is relatively uninformed about Mobile IPv4 to know how to  
get more context about Mobile IPv4 extensions, the Mobile IPv4  
message exchanges, etc.

I tried reading RFC 3024 and, perhaps not giving myself enough time  
to understand the doc fully, I didn't see the problem with using  
DHCPINFORM with reverse tunneling.

I wasn't able to answer another question for myself: what is the  
address assignment model and does critical information like subnet  
mask and default router have to be delivered at the same time as any  
assigned addresses?

No you don't, as I stated elsewhere, iburst should always be used by
default but neither burst nor adjustments to the minpoll and maxpoll
values should be made except under very special circumstances. burst is
extremely unfriendly to the server and minpoll and maxpoll can make the
algorithms used in NTP less stable. You really have to be an expert in
NTP and its algorithms to change these from their default value.

That's not true. The delay is between the NTP client and the NTP server
and includes delays of any intermediary points like a router.

No you should be using a DNS name and not IP addresses. The client then
can use the DNS to lookup the name and get a bunch of IP addresses. The
new pool option will then configure all of them (up to 10) for NTP servers.

True, but not really important, since the DHCP server is normally
configured with a domain name, not an IP address.   So it can do the
lookup and return those ten IP addresses to the client.   So you get the
same effect whether you send the FQDN to the client and make it do the
lookup, or do the lookup on the server.   The advantage of doing it on
the server is (1) you don't have to send an FQDN, and (2) the client
doesn't need to have a resolver.

DHCPv6 uses IPSEC for security. However, as I pointed out in my own
response, if you are provisioning an NTP server then it means that NTP
is not running at the time and any security that requires reasonably
close timestamps at both ends is likely to fail.

DHCPv6 does not use IPSEC between the client and the server.  Rather,  
it uses a shared key for authentication and message verification.

It is possible to use IPSEC between a relay agent and a server.

Interesting idea, but it's not clear to me what it means when a service is
advertised. For instance, if I advertise "ntp", does that mean that the local
network has a reachable NTP server, or that the network allows port 123 traffic
through it's firewall, or what?

Thanks for the correction. As long as the shared key authentication does
not depend on a valid time in any way then this is fine.

Although DHCPv6 does have a signature verification mechanism, it does
not encrypt carried configuration.

So unless you're transferring public keys for NTP, there's an exposure
problem I'm not sure you're aware of.  Just making sure you know, I'm
not familiar with the keys discussed in this context.


Next, I want to make sure that your expectations of the services
DHCPv6 can provide are set appropriately.

Others have pointed out DHCPv6's authentication mechanism uses shared
secrets; there is also a similar mechanism for DHCPv4, RFC3118
"Authentication for DHCP Messages" (which 3315 says its method is
based upon).  You should know that this has not been well deployed in
DHCPv4, and it shares very similar design features to RFC3315's
authentication.  The primary problem is that for most networks in
operation, "configure a shared secret on all of your clients" defeats
the purpose of the "Dynamic" in DHCP.  If you have to manually
configure all your clients with a key, why bother using DHCP at all?
You may as well manually configure them all with the final
configuration state and skip a lot of needless machinery.

So although it can be done, no one actually does it.

I understand that 3315 authentication has precisely the same barrier,
that the client's keys are distributed "out of band."  I have no
reason to think that IPv6 makes operators more interested in manually
configuring clients to obtain dynamic configuration state than they
have been in IPv4.

This is surmountable I think, it's possible the authentication methods
might be extended and improved to remove this barrier to adoption, but
there have been zero drafts to date which attempt to do so.

So, expectations.


Your expectations should be:  No one will use 3315 authentication as
it is, and therefore you will not have a cryptographically secured
means to deliver this information on real networks.  People will,
however, take special care with their DHCPv6 protocol packets on their
networks (firewalling, etc, just as many always have done in IPv4),
and there exists the potential for improvement and actual deployment
of cryptographic trust here at some future date.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts 
directories.
This draft is a work item of the Dynamic Host Configuration Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Subnet Allocation Option
	Author(s)	: R. Johnson, et al.
	Filename	: draft-ietf-dhc-subnet-alloc-06.txt
	Pages		: 32
	Date		: 2007-11-16
	
This document defines a new DHCP option which is passed between the
   DHCP Client and the DHCP Server to request dynamic allocation of a
   subnet, give specifications of subnet(s) allocated, and report usage
   statistics.  This memo documents the current usage of the option in
   agreement with RFC-3942[4], which declares that any pre-existing
   usages of option numbers in the range 128 - 223 should be documented
   and the working group will try to officially assign those numbers to

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Dynamic Host Configuration Working Group of the IETF.


	Title           : Virtual Subnet Selection Sub-Option for the Relay Agent Information Option for DHCPv4
	Author(s)       : K. Kinnear, et al.
	Filename        : draft-ietf-dhc-agent-vpn-id-05.txt
	Pages           : 11
	Date            : 2007-11-16

In some environments, a relay agent resides in a network element
which also has access to one or more virtual private networks (VPNs).
If a DHCP server wishes to offer service to DHCP clients on those
different VPNs the DHCP server needs to know information about the
VPN on which each client resides. The Virtual Subnet Selection sub-
option of the relay-agent-information option is used by the relay
agent to tell the DHCP server important information about the VPN
(called the Virtual Subnet Selection information, or VSS) for every
DHCP request it passes on to the DHCP server, and is also used to
properly forward any DHCP reply that the DHCP server sends back to
the relay agent.

Well we are only responding to an effort to do this via DHCP. We cannot
say for sure that this is the best method to do this and obviously it's
not the only method. Of course you might say why bother with DHCP for
that matter?

Agreed.

There are a whole slew of issues regarding provisioning of a system
during the booting process (and other times) that need to be worked out.
Specifically the network configuration and booting order of network
configs for DHCP, DNS, NTP, syslog, SSH, SNMP, etc.

At some point we really need to sit down and thrash out how to do this
in a secure way, in what order that it makes sense, error conditions,
etc. I'm not sure what the DHCP folks have been discussing so I bring it
all up and you can tell us what's already been solved and how.

Not starting the DHCP client is the simplest way. And that, obviously, has
no change whatsoever on the DHCP SM or client.

I already provided the numbers in response to Eric's email. Let me know if
you have a specific question.

Meanwhile, I hope you are seeing the fundamental problem: You cannot reduce
DHCP "load" if you "overload" DHCP with EAP.

There is no protocol in there. It's all filtering.

I never said such a thing. I suspect you are confusing someone else's
statement about some other scenario/proposal.

Disagree, as explained throughout this thread.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Dynamic Host Configuration Working Group of the IETF.


	Title           : Virtual Subnet Selection Option
	Author(s)       : R. Johnson, et al.
	Filename        : draft-ietf-dhc-vpn-option-07.txt
	Pages           : 12
	Date            : 2007-11-16

This memo defines existing usage for the Virtual Subnet Selection
(VSS) information option.  It is intended for use primarily by DHCP
proxy clients in situations where VSS information needs to be passed
to the DHCP server for proper address allocation to take place.

The option number currently in use is 221.  This memo documents the
current usage of the option in agreement with [8], which declares
that any pre-existing usages of option numbers in the range 128 - 223
should be documented and the working group will try to officially
assign those numbers to those options.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dhc-vpn-option-07.txt

In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dhc-vpn-option-07.txt".

NOTE:   The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.

Hi, Shane,

Thanks for your comments, reply as below,

> Interesting idea, but it's not clear to me what it means when a service is

I guess for some operator, they would like to say they allow such kind of
port 123 traffic,  for others operator,
this draft could be extended to show there is a reachable NTP server.

We hope it could ignite other purpose as well based on comments.
Thanks again

-Hui

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Dynamic Host Configuration Working Group of the IETF.


	Title           : DHCP Server Identifier Override Suboption
	Author(s)       : R. Johnson, et al.
	Filename        : draft-ietf-dhc-server-override-05.txt
	Pages           : 12
	Date            : 2007-11-16

This memo defines a new suboption of the DHCP relay information
option which allows the DHCP relay to specify a new value for the
Server Identifier option, which is inserted by the DHCP Server.  This
allows the DHCP relay to act as the actual DHCP server such that
RENEW DHCPREQUESTs will come to the relay instead of going to the
server directly.  This gives the relay the opportunity to include the
Relay Agent option with appropriate suboptions even on DHCP RENEW
messages.

Bernie - are there any action items remaining from RFC 3942?  Might  
be good to (a) update  draft-volz-dhc-3942-status-00 (although I  
regret I'm responding too late for you to make the draft pub  
deadline) and (b) publish a final doc when everything from RFC 3942  
is wrapped up to capture that the issues have all been closed.

- Ralph

NERIM in France since about 2003.

But Alper - can you cite how NTT is doing it?  How many customers?  How
many addresses delivered to customer?  What kind of addresses are
delivered?   What transition mechanism?  I can for NERIM.

I'm talking from a 2001 experience of actually picking up the phone and
calling NTT and asking them for IPv6 access.

All these things are important in order to really answer the question
raised above.

It may all be in that 'residential' keyword.  How much 'residential' is
a SOHO?  What does 'residential' really mean in Japanese?

Alex

I consider that it is most unlikely for the DHCP server to know the
delay. Consider DHCP server D, client C and NTP server N. Each are in
different locations on the physical wire (wireless and other medium are
  similar). D may know its own delay to N but C is elsewhere on the
wire. You might be able to figure out the delay between D and C but how
does it relate to the delay between C and N? They are in different
locations on the wire. Is C closer to N, further away, on another
segment of the network?

Dave,

I don't see how. The DHCP server and the NTP server are different nodes
on the network, unless the DHCP server is going to provide the NTP
service as well but that's a bad assumption to make even though the DHCP
server SHOULD be running NTP, if only for itself.

I consider that it is most unlikely for the DHCP server to know the
delay. Consider DHCP server D, client C and NTP server N. Each are in
different locations on the physical wire (wireless and other medium are
  similar). D may know its own delay to N but C is elsewhere on the
wire. You might be able to figure out the delay between D and C but how
does it relate to the delay between C and N? They are in different
locations on the wire. Is C closer to N, further away, on another
segment of the network?

No, there's a problem there too. A multicast client by default needs to
do authentication. That means that you either provide it a key file (or
the contents thereof) or you have to disable authentication in which
case you have to accept whatever you receive including rogues. You need
to pick one and act accordingly.

I have no idea what configuring the DHCP server with a domain name has
to do with anything.
The addresses of NTP servers are not related to domain names.
Furthermore by looking up the IP
addresses for the client means that the client loses flexibility of
being able to do a new lookup when
one of those NTP servers stop responding to queries. This capability is
not in the currently
implementation of the NTP reference implementation but will be there in
the next few months.
There is *no* avantage to not sending a FQDN and plenty of disadvantages
to not doing so.
Would you like a list of vendors who have hardcoded IP addresses into
their devices without
permission of the operator of that NTP server causing headaches for not
just the owner of the
NTP Server but also for the users of those devices? The NTP reference
implementation expects
the existence of a resolver so you haven't gained anything.

Danny,

As I understand it, the DHCP client broadcasts a request to the DHCP 
server and receives a response. There is an opportunity for the DHCP 
client to measure the delay, should it be so instrumented. In no way did 
I intend the DHCP server run NTP for any business but itself.

The discussion has left me a little uneasy about the specificy of the 
message formats to the current NTP implementation. Things like minpoll 
and maxpoll could be interpreted in context to protect the NTP servers, 
but in the DHCP environment that probably is not an issue. There is no 
real need to reveal broadcast mode servers. As long as the client knows 
the address mask, it can generate the broadcast address to listen on. It 
doesn't make sense to advertise symmetric modes, as these are usually 
reserved for serious low-stratum campus servers. This leaves only 
client/server mode as useful. However, the key ID is important, as the 
NTP client and server should share the same bag of keys and the client 
might not know the current server key ID.

Some perspective on the issues can be gained from our experience with 
other discovery schemes like broadcast, manycast and the pool. Broadcast 
provides the server address (for delay measurements), stratum and key 
ID. Manycast servers filter the client stratum and respond only if they 
can provide better time. They also provide the key ID. The pool scheme 
merely provides the server addresses. In all three schemes the client 
can filter the responses for acceptable stratum and then cast out the 
survivors from the population leaving only the best quality survivors. 
The DHCP discovery scheme needs only to provide comparable statistics. A 
client can use any combination of these schemes.

Clients need to be able to know exactly what the server means when it sends a
service identifier.

Also, if you are going to be sending lists of ports that are open, perhaps it
makes more sense to send those, instead of giving service names. Clients will
need to know how these ports are handled.

I think the draft needs more work before wider consideration.

Hi Ralph and all,

I have only one small comment regarding Pete's excellent
exposition, inline below:

On 2007-11-15 21:24 McCann Peter-A001034 said the following:
> Hi, Ralph,
...

> When reverse tunneling ala RFC 3024 is used (as it is in most 
> major deployments of MIP), the MN has a choice about whether
> to negotiate "encapsulated delivery style" on the last hop
> link.  It must negotiate this if it wants to send broadcast
> datagrams (of which I think the DHCPDISCOVER is one) to the
> home network.  In this case, an FA will look at each packet,
> and reverse tunnel the ones that are so encapsulated and send
> other packets directly.  The problem I was trying to point 
> out is that this extra encapsulation would be present on 
> every packet sent to the home network, which might cause
> a lot of overhead on the link between the MN and FA.  If
> this is a wireless link, this overhead is especially onerous.

Note, though, that there is currently a proposal in 
draft-chakrabarti-mip4-mcbc-01 which if pursued will remove
the extra encapsulation on all packets:
  http://www.tools.ietf.org/html/draft-chakrabarti-mip4-mcbc-01

Regards,

	Henrik

Also, agreed. One can imagine a setup where the DHCP server has been
configured with the correct broadcast delay for every subnet that it
serves. However, I consider that this is a very rare occurrence and
very error prone. Why bother? Just let the client do the volley and
have done with it. So I agree with you in general, Danny. Having
a broadcast delay served from the DHCP server is usually going to
be a bad idea.

As already noted, there is an advantage, namely that the client does
not have to have a resolver. And even if the reference implementation
requires one (Is that really true? Even if no name resolution is
required?) DHCP should remain implementation agnostic.

As far the "hard coded address" problem goes, I don't see that
scenario as very likely. DHCP clients don't tend to remain up
for very long periods. And you don't have the same IP addresses
being served by thousands of DHCP servers. The thing to be careful
of is that the DHCP server not be embedded and replicated with hard
coded addresses, not that the clients only get IP addresses.

That having been said, I would like to see a way to pass a FQDN
as an option, perhaps passing both. Then you could have logic
like "Here's both, use the name if you can, and use the address if
you must."

The only action items remaining are to update the IANA registry with the
current status, which is what this draft was attempting to do.

The above list is changed slightly because 208-211 are covered by the
soon to be published RFC-ietf-dhc-pxelinux-03.txt and there have been
some revisions to the other documents to get them through WG last call.

Bernie - are there any action items remaining from RFC 3942?  Might =20
be good to (a) update  draft-volz-dhc-3942-status-00 (although I =20
regret I'm responding too late for you to make the draft pub =20
deadline) and (b) publish a final doc when everything from RFC 3942 =20
is wrapped up to capture that the issues have all been closed.

An option in a protocol that produces no different behavior is just an
opportunity for interoperability problems.

This is actually an old discussion.   Danny's position isn't unheard of,
but the fact is that there's really no way in which this option is
different from the other fifty options that tell DHCP clients how to
contact servers.

There's no reason why this option should use FQDNs while the other fifty
use IP addresses, and there are a number of good reasons not to send
FQDNs, the first and most obvious of which is that they take up more
space in the packet, and space in the packet is very limited.

As you said here, client does need to know what exactly means of it,
Software cooperation work between client and server is mandatory to
support this function.

I guess that here really need deep discussion. some time service are dynamically
negotiate the port number, you remind us here like whether we also
need consider the port number range information shall be advertised or
not.

really thanks for your comments.

We appreciate the comments which could help to progress it.

The beauty of offering IP address instead of FQDN is that you totally
control your client.
You don't let any room for interpretation of the result of the
subsequent DNS query in the DHCP Client.

There is no way of answering that claim without knowing more about a)
those other 50 options; and
b) how those options are obtained.

So let's step back here for a moment and have someone from the DHCP
community explain exactly
how and when these options are sent to the client. Remember that those
of us concentrating on NTP
have only some idea how DHCP is sending these options. Does DHCP:
a) Send these options unsolicited when it is requested to send an IP
address to be used by the client?;
b) Only send these options when requested by the client?;
c) something else?

When does the client send/receive the request?
a) Upon boot
b) upon lease renew
c) some other time?

Except for a) the NTP server is not going to be taking any options from
the DHCP server unless some
other mechanism (which NTP has not designed) tells it to. That means
that the NTP can be up for months
never updating it's list of NTP server addresses. In the meantime,
Server 1 has stopped running, Server 2
has moved to a different address, Server 3 was always suspect. DCHP has
no say in what to do about this,
at least so far. DNS at least provides a way of getting a fresh set of
addresses.

Danny

I would like to announce the 2nd DHCPv6 bake off to be organized the
week-end after the IETF in Vancouver.

The 1st DHCPv6 bake-off was held earlier this year at RIPE-NCC in Amsterdam
and was a great success. See:
http://www.isoc.org/tools/blogs/ietfjournal/?p=135

This new bake-off will be conducted in the same spirit, ie focusing on
interoperability and operational practice. I've developed in partnership
with ISC a preliminary test plan for this bake-off that is available upon
request.

Please contact me directly asap if you plan to attend or have any questions.

   - Alain.





Organization information:
-------------------------

Dates: Friday December 7th 12pm to Sunday December 9th 3pm

Location: TBD, in Vancouver, BC, Canada

Open to: any participant coming with an original implementation of a DHCPv6
client, relay or server

Disclosure mode: this is a typical non disclosure event, ie you'll have full
access to your test results, and we will only publish a short summary of the
even as we did for the 1st bake-off in the above URL

Contact & registration: Alain_Durand@cable.comcast.com

What to bring: A platform to run your code (laptop, small router,...)

Cost: there might be nominal fees to cover some of the local logistic
(renting the room, etc..). Last time, I was able to bring those fees to $0.

Errors-To: dhcwg-bounces@ietf.org

The IESG has approved the following document:

- 'DHCP Server Identifier Override Suboption '
   <draft-ietf-dhc-server-override-05.txt> as a Proposed Standard

This document is the product of the Dynamic Host Configuration Working 
Group. 

The IESG contact persons are Jari Arkko and Mark Townsley.

A URL of this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dhc-server-override-05.txt

Technical Summary

   This document specifies a DHCP relay agent information sub-option
   that causes the DHCP server to insert a different value for the
   Server Identifier option instead of the IP address of the DHCP
   server.  By inserting the IP address of the DHCP relay agent option
   in the Server Identifier option, the DHCP client will send all DHCP
   messages through the DHCP relay agent, which is useful in some
   deployments in which the DHCP relay agent maintains state about the
   DHCP client.

Working Group Summary

   The DHC WG reviewed this document and raised several issues during
   the WG last call.  All of the issues have been resolved or
   addressed in this revision of the draft.

Protocol Quality

   This specification is an extension to the DHCP specification.  It
   provides the same function as the requirement in RFC 3315, DHCP for
   IPv6, that all DHCP messages be sent to the IPv6
   All_DHCP_Relay_Agents_and_Servers multicast address.

   This document was reviewed for the IESG by Margaret Wasserman.

Note to RFC Editor
 
  Please change:
  OLD:
  the DHCP Relay should forward all DHCP packets all servers.
  NEW: 
  the DHCP Relay SHOULD forward all DHCP packets to all servers.

Hi,

Reading the RFC3203 on ForceRenew, it is not very specific 
how servers should format the DHCP packet, if just refer to
"the normal DHCP message layout". 

Since this is a server initiated packet, can the server 
then select a new xid for the DHCP packet, or does it have 
to used the same xid as the client used in the last packet 
it send to the server ?


Also RFC3203 says that any ForceRenew message MUST be 
authenticated using the procedures as described in [DHCP-AUTH],
that seems like a strong requirement, and I read that like
any clients support of RFC3203 can only happen if they
also support DHCP Authentication Option 90, is that the
intent of this requirement, or is it more a resommendation
that DHCP Auth. is good for the security :)

thanks,
Peter

Hi Ralph and all,

I have only one small comment regarding Pete's excellent exposition,
inline below:

On 2007-11-15 21:24 McCann Peter-A001034 said the following:

Note, though, that there is currently a proposal in
draft-chakrabarti-mip4-mcbc-01 which if pursued will remove the extra
encapsulation on all packets:
  http://www.tools.ietf.org/html/draft-chakrabarti-mip4-mcbc-01

Yes, an update (-02) has been posted.

I'm not aware of any DHCP message exchanges that are suitable for
RTT measurements in any meaningful way.

Many DHCP message exchanges require physical flushes to disc or other
similar recoverable storage before replying, and in other messages
servers may engage in additional behaviours that rely on additional
RTTs (such as Dynamic DNS updates), or timeouts (such as with ICMP
echoes).

I can go into detail if you wish, but I personally would not use
even the informational messages for any kind of meaningful time
derivation (since even with informational messages, the server may
perform recursive DNS resolution of names in its configuration in
order to deliver IP addresses over DHCP).

Hi Alex,

I need to let NTT folks answer that.

Meanwhile, the point I was trying to make is, IPv6 over DSL is not a future
thing that we can blindly ignore. Tossing the ball back to DSLF is just a
recipe for avoiding discussions.

There is a concern of which I am aware among the NTP users community
concerning a recent catastrophic event which I think I am reading
in the subtext of this thread.  Lets find out.

A SOHO router manufacturer latched onto the IPv4 address (not the
domain name) of a particular open-to-the-public NTP clock.  The
IPv4 address was hard-coded into their firmware.

Upon the release of this product, said clock was slowly subjected to
what grew into an Entire-Internet scale distributed DDOS.

The operator responsible for the NTP device at said IPv4 address was
not willing nor capable of continuing to supply free bandwidth and
hardened NTP servers to meet this SOHO router manufacturer's global
clocking needs, certainly not free of charge, and ultimately had to
readdress his clock.  I seem to recall he was actually sued by the
SOHO router manufacturer, because all their SOHO routers suddenly
started spitting errors and misbehaving when this free service was
withheld, but my memory is beyond its limits at this point.


So it is possible that the community may strongly desire an otherwise
unusual number of intermediaries between /etc/ntp.conf and the IPv4
addresses they determine.

DHCP is an excellent solution, because it is likely that this SOHO
router was in fact obtaining its own IP address via DHCPv4, so if
it also received its clock via DHCPv4 rather than being hard-
coded, there would never have been a problem to solve.

IPv4 addresses via DHCP are possibly a worse solution, however,
because if it does deliver fixed IPv4 addresses to clients, then a NAT
box acting as a home gateway is a greater operational danger than the
above; imagine if this SOHO router manufacturer had decided to deliver
the fixed IPv4 address they had selected via DHCPv4 to all its
NAT-side clients, in all homes its clones resided, worldwide.


So if the DHCP protocol field required RFC1035 syntax, an IPv4 address
becomes an illegal configuration format, and that may be a desirable
outcome to a segment of the operational community that is concerned
with the historic stickyness of their IPv4 addresses, and the tendency
to get sued for publishing one.

I do not make a judgement at this time, but I would like to caution
the NTP community that additional intermediaries will not necessarily
correct bad behaviour.  In example, putting your clock's location in
DNS resolution into A/AAAA records does not mean a SOHO router
manufacturer can not / will not resolve those addresses and then
hard-code them into products.

I would also like to suggest that some of these concerns may be
mitigated by tracking Ralph Drom's recent 'container option' draft,
wherein a SOHO router may dynamically receive from an 'upstream'
DHCPv6 server the configuration values it should give 'downstream'
DHCPv6 clients.

I'm not aware of an equivalent for DHCPv4 however.


So cautioned, I personally leave it up to the NTP community to
prove to us exactly to what extent it is genuinely useful to have
such intermediaries as DNS (or even DHCP, even if I consider that
a given) involved.

In general, and in context of this discussion, it is most important to
understand that DHCP servers (both v4 and v6) provide exactly those
options the DHCP clients request (via the DHCPv4 Parameter Request
List option, or the DHCPv6 Option Request Option).

A server might be configured to send additional options explicitly,
but doing so is no guarantee that the client will use the options.

The request lists are essentially an advertisement of what options
the client is willing to digest, and the order of priority it places
in them (in the event of packet space exhaustion, earlier options
will preclude later).

In DHCPv4, there are approximately 312 bytes available for DHCP
options, considering realistic operational deployment.  Less if you
don't want to bear support costs.  Some of those must be textual
(domain name, search path), but the majority have been and continue
to be carried in binary IP address forms.

In DHCPv6, there are potentially 64k bytes available for DHCP options,
with some handwaving for the (extremely brief) headers, recursive
headers due to DHCPv6 relay paths, and the various options that are
'mandatory' for normal operation...you are still left with a "large"
potential for options payload.  This is much more than four times the
available packet space, considering IPv6 addresses are "only" four
times larger than IPv4 addresses.

> When does the client send/receive the request?

It depends, and in either protocol is at the discretion of the client.

> a) Upon boot

Obviously the client will obtain an address upon booting.  Upon
rebooting...

In DHCPv4, we have the INIT-REBOOT state, so the client sends a
request that effectively extends its lease, and new configuration
state is loaded along with that.

In DHCPv6, we have the Confirm message, which allows a client to
continue to use its previous binding (or not, sending it back to
the beginning), and no new configuration state is loaded.

Any change in configuration (such as its absence) is detected, and
new values (or lack thereof) are adopted.

> b) upon lease renew

Yes.  New values from the network always supplant older ones.  How
to integrate this onto e.g. a Unix-like system is unclear, and
realistically many configuration values are "sticky" with running
applications (such as /etc/resolv.conf contents that are loaded
once when firefox starts and never again).

So all of this is academic if your ntpd runs once at startup on
a laptop that "sleeps" rather than being shutdown, and never
reloads its configuratoin file with fresh values from the DHCP
client.

Ostensibly you would want to have some closer integration with the
DHCP client to receive these configuration events in near real time.

> c) some other time?

Both DHCP protocols include a mechanism to reconfigure/force the
renewal of configuration information causing a client to enter into
the renewal event at any time, but the DHCPv4 method is not well
deployed, and the DHCPv6 method is not clearly well used (to me, maybe
someone else will comment).


I don't know if you will find this document helpful;

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dhc-option-guidelines-00.txt

But I (rather egotistically) think it is a good read for background
information for any authors looking to write new DHCP options.

It expires Jan. 2 2008.  I should probably rev it soon, but doubt I
will have the time available until approx Jan 15...

http://www.ipv6style.jp/en/statistics/services/index.shtml

is a good reference what we're doing in Japan. Not only by NTT.

Talking about ISP service, please see 

http://www.v6.ntt.net/index_e.html

We can not disclose without proper permission from company, sorry about that.

Please look at RFC4241.
Actually, we've modified a bit in addition to this model.
Basically, we've added RA onto the uplink between CPE and Access Concentrator
because of some operating system like Windows Vista uses the strong model
for its network design.

If I could have a chance, I am grad to tell about our architecture
in Vancouvor in some proper place.

> >What transition mechanism?  

No transition mechanism.

Also,  we've already commercialized "softwire" service named "OCNIPv6".
Basically, this is as same as we've discussed within SOFTWIRE WG of IETF.

SOHO as well as just an apartment or house.

One my house in Tokyo had been equipped with residential IPv6/v4 dual ADSL
service from my own company.

I believe that this is residential :-)

(Now I personally am using FTTH service from NTT as well with IPv6 
softwire commercial service on it.)

Hi, I've read this draft and I have some comments.  I may have missed 
prior discussion around it, sorry if I sound uninformed on this.

Was there a Last Call for this draft?  What are the reasons behind its 
intended status being Informational? Was there any mention about 
prototyping or intent of it or of an Ethereal/WireShark packet analyzer 
dissector?

Since the Prefix field will only encode a maximum of 32 values (the 
prefix length of an IPv4 address, or the subnet mask) 5 bits would 
suffice (and not 8 as above).  This would allow Flags field to expand 
more flags in the future.  Thoughts?

Nit:

                                          ^^
I think you meant 'possibly smaller' (if we characterize the size 
parameter as the number of addresses within it then a bigger subnet 
accommodates more hosts).

I think this is reasonable.

However, I see more simple issues around it that don't necessarily need 
to be left to implementations and moreover have a direct relationship to 
DHCP.

-Could we have a picture somewhere at the beginning of the document
  describing an example with topology how you see this prototyped?  Is
  that like Client--Server or more like Client--Relay--Server?
-If the latter then we may have some new restrictions to specify: the
  Server should allocate a subnet _within_ the subnet on which the Relay
  already allocates addresses for Clients.  This has a strong impact on
  implementations' ways to specify their configuration files.
-and also about routing: if working through a Relay then the routing
  must be updated for the subnet allocation to work.  Maybe how to update
  it it's left to other specs, but the routing must be updated (Server's
  routing table must point to Client's address for the subnet it
  allocated).  This is something that could be mentioned I hinkl.

Quick top-level response. This draft describes Cisco's current use of  
option code 220, and follows the process outlined in RFC 3942 to  
document the use of option codes the were previously identified as  
"site-specific options" in RFC 2132.  According to the RFC 3942  
process, the document will be published as "Informational"; because  
it documents current use rather than future deployment, there likely  
won't be changes to the syntax or semantics of the option at this point.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Dynamic Host Configuration Working Group of the IETF.


	Title           : Virtual Subnet Selection Sub-Option for the Relay Agent Information Option for DHCPv4
	Author(s)       : K. Kinnear, et al.
	Filename        : draft-ietf-dhc-agent-vpn-id-05.txt
	Pages           : 11
	Date            : 2007-11-16

In some environments, a relay agent resides in a network element
which also has access to one or more virtual private networks (VPNs).
If a DHCP server wishes to offer service to DHCP clients on those
different VPNs the DHCP server needs to know information about the
VPN on which each client resides. The Virtual Subnet Selection sub-
option of the relay-agent-information option is used by the relay
agent to tell the DHCP server important information about the VPN
(called the Virtual Subnet Selection information, or VSS) for every
DHCP request it passes on to the DHCP server, and is also used to
properly forward any DHCP reply that the DHCP server sends back to
the relay agent.

Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the 
username "anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After 
logging in, type "cd internet-drafts" and then
	"get draft-ietf-dhc-agent-vpn-id-05.txt".

A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in
http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html
or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt

Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.

Send a message to:
	mailserv@ietf.org.
In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dhc-agent-vpn-id-05.txt".

NOTE:   The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.

Danny,

The one-way delay on a fast Ethernet is usually in the weenieseconds on 
a fast Ethernet, so I wouldn't worry to much about it. The scenario 
where the DHCP delay would be useful is when for some reason or other 
the client cannot use the client/server volley to measure it. A nonzero 
delay value in the DHCP response would be an explicit indication of that.

The reference implementation calls getaddrinfo(). Whether it actually
contacts a resolver depends partly on the O/S.

This laptop that I'm typing on hasn't been restarted in at least a
month. The NTP server (which I am stopping and starting constantly as
I'm testing and debugging code) would not normally be stopped and never
fetches an new addresses once it has them. In the meantime it's changing
networks at least 3 times a day and therefore getting a new address from
DHCP each time. Currently, if the DHCP server were to send me new IP
addresses for the NTP server it would ignore it as it's already running
and doesn't look at anything before it's restarted or you use ntpdc to
change it. So except for bootup, sending me IP addresses every time I
change my local IP address would be useless since the running ntpd
server doesn't get notified, at least not right now.

If you want to use the DHCP server essentially as a resolver (it looks
up the addresses and sends them to the NTP server) that's fine except
there's no mechanism currently in place to do that.

Danny

Brian,

Trying to put out fires when the network is burning is a good excercise 
in fault containment. When the DNS is broken and the repair party 
arrives, it's good to know the gateway works even if DNS doesn't. I'm 
not sure this exactly applies to NTP, but I sure would like to see the 
NTP servers options include hard coded addresses.

Guys,

Is this about mechanism or policy?

I would suspect (and hope) it is about mechanism.

In that case one must be able to "offer" either a name or an IPv4
address or an IPv6 address.

If one *also* wishes to address policy issues, that's OK (IMO).

But (again IMO) the underlying mechanism needs to support names and/or
addresses.

About those 50 options ... For DHCPv6, listing already defined options
specifying an IP service,
I find option : 22,27,28,31,34, 40 that have hardcoded IPv6 addresses.

So far, I cant find any IP service defined by an FQDN for DHCPv6.

Hi,

I have some comments on draft-joshi-dhc-l2ra-00:

1) section 4.1.1 in point 3 and 6 says that the L2 relay agent looks to
the broadcast flag to see if has to broadcast or to unicast.  Is this
not the task of the DHCP server or L3 relay agent?  Would there be any
reason why the L2 relay agent should also inspect the broadcast flag?
Is it not enough that the L2 relay agent just looks to the destination
MAC address?

2) point 3 in 4.1.1 says that the L2 relay agent removes the relay agent
information option.  As far as I know, this is not mandatory for L3
relay agents (and I have seen implementations that do not remove it), so
  should it for L2 relay agents also not be something optional?

3) point 4 in 4.1.1: A L2 relay agent uses the RAI to find out if it has
appended the RAI or not.  There is not really a requirement that the
content of the RAI must be unique per access link network-wide.  For
instance, if the circuit-id contains a string indicating the slot and
port number of the link, then the same circuit-id can be used by
multiple L2 relay agents.  The DSL Forum has solved this by adding a
DSLAM-ID to the string of the suboptions of the RAI in their suggested
format of the string.  It would be therefore better to add the word
"usually" just like it is done in 3 and 6 where the L2RA "usually" find
the outgoing port based on the RAI, because there are other means as well.

4) Section 4.3.2, point 1: this is not really a new issue when there is
a L3 relay agent and is already mentioned in 4.1.2.

Some typos:
- section 3, point 1: position instead of postion
- I do not understand 3rd sentence in section 3, point 2: "This helps in
preventing the Layer 2 and Layer 3...."
- section 4.3 line 3: "...its seen.." -> "...it is seen..."

regards,
Stefaan

Well, certainly we would need a way to update the servers used by
ntpd. The obvious choice is to restart, but the requests I made to
the hackers list for arbitrary command line config specification
was specifically to allow just such a mechanism for update be
available to the O/S when new servers came in via DHCP.

Dave, I think you misunderstood. By saying the "hard-coded address"
sceanrio as "not very likely" I meant that a DHCP caused fiasco like
the Netgear/Wisc. one was not likely, even if IP addresses are supplied
in the DHCP field. In other words, we are once again in violent
agreement here.

Seems like there are two ways to deal with this, either define a set of 
pre-existing names and services ala RFC1918 type thingee or through some 
lookup process in DHCP. Either way it seems that this also plugs into the 
NEA functionality as well.

I was counting DHCPv4 options as well.

Brian, many an unmaintainable, non-interoperating edifice has been  
built atop the "mechanism, not policy" fallacy.

Danny, if your NTP server doesn't periodically check to see if its  
configuration file has changed, that seems like a bug to me; changing  
the DHCP protocol to address a bug in an NTP server seems like the  
wrong answer.

yes, this is another reason why the DHCP folks have generally used 
addresses in options. it just removes a dependency among the various 
clients in the system, and it doesn't usually have any significant drawback.

there seems to be a concern that delivering addresses via DHCP somehow 
makes them difficult to update over time. just to reiterate: it's often 
the case that the information at the DHCP server is updated. the updated 
information flows out to clients as they renew. if the lease timers were 
very long, a client who got NTP addresses and found itself having 
trouble with them all could also use the INFORMATION-REQUEST message to 
check whether the addresses were still valid, outside of the normal 
renewal timers.

Hi Stefaan,

    Thanks for your comments. Please see my response in line.

Bharat

Yes. You are correct. A L2 RA would not need to look at the broadcast flag=
 at all. We shall correct this in our next revision.

As per RFC 3046 whoever has added relay agent information option MUST=
 remove it.

Section 2.1 of RFC 3046:

The Relay Agent Information option echoed by a server MUST be removed by=
 either the relay agent or the trusted downstream network element which=
 added it when forwarding a server-to-client response back to the client.

> 3) point 4 in 4.1.1: A L2 relay agent uses the RAI to find out if it has

 well.
>

Yes. Adding 'Usually' will be helpful. After re-reading it, I think we need=
 to update it.

> 4) Section 4.3.2, point 1: this is not really a new issue when there is
> a L3 relay agent and is already mentioned in 4.1.2.

Yes. They are essentially same but we just wanted to keep it at both the=
 places. It just shows that if a L3 RA does not snoop a unicast message,=
 DHCP server should echo back the option 82.

> Some typos:

Will fix all of them in next revision.

We have at least one DHCPv4 client that does this, and it is not
adviseable.  I don't want to get into a nuts and bolts 'thing' for
the NTP people, we can talk about that on DHC separately if you like.

The short version of my opinion is that it's preferrable to renew
early, if you take any special action at all.  If the operator
selects a long lease time, without specifying a short renew time,
they are selecting this behaviour by design.  So an even better
interpretation is to just wait the normal renew interval, even it
is terribly long.

No special action is best by far.

Isn't there already an 'all ntp servers' multicast address allocated?

David,

The true story of the U. Wisconsiin incident, along with others at NIST 
and USNO, is in: Mills, D.L., J. Levine, R. Schmidt and D. Plonka. 
Coping with overload on the Network Time Protocol public servers. Proc. 
Precision Time and Time Interval (PTTI) Applications and Planning 
Meeting (Washington DC, December 2004), 5-16. The paper is also on the 
web: www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/papers.html.

So far as I know, Netgear had no plans to sue U. Wisconsin or the ISP. 
However, my very strong advice to U. Wisconsin was to sue Netgear. The 
incidents are what prompted the in-your-face practices in the latest 
SNTP RFC, as well as the traffic grooming and Kiss-o'Death response in 
recent NTP distributions.

I don't know what the argument is about with respect to IPV4 and NAT. I 
would assume best practice would be for the firewall to run NTP and 
provide its nonroutable IPv4 address behind the firewall. In principle, 
it could hand out a routable IPv4 (or IPv6) address of an outside server 
and translate only the return address. Frankly, I would rather the SOHO 
do broadcast, rather than be stung by a raft of clients.

David,

Yes; the IANA has allocated IPv4 and IPv6 addresses for multicast NTP. 
Most of our department servers and clients use them.

FF02::101 and FF05::101 are reserved for link-local and site-local.
Actually the whole FFxx::101 space is reserved for NTP.

This is one of the problems that the NTP pool servers face. The pool DNS
servers pass out different addresses on a regular basis but the NTP
clients are hanging onto the addresses. One of my urgent projects is to
get at least the reference implementation of ntpd to do another DNS
lookup in case the NTP server is not responding after a specified number
of request packets don't get a response. Pool servers that get removed
from the pool are continuing to receive NTP request packets for a very
long time. We cannot do anything about third-party clients but we can
certainly have the reference implementation do the right thing. The new
pool configuration option is also helpful because it now makes use of
multiple IP addresses returned by the DNS lookup.

certainly have the reference implementation do the right thing. The new
pool configuration option is also helpful because it now makes use of
multiple IP addresses returned by the DNS lookup.

DNS is required for the pool configuration option. IP addresses are
strongly discouraged from the server configuration option for the same
reasons. The only time I can see allowing DHCP provided IP addresses is
if those addresses are link-local or site-local. That way we'd guarantee
that they were not going to bombard a remote NTP server with requests.

That's currently the situation with the reference implementation of
ntpd. It gets its configuration information and doesn't go back. You can
update some of the configuration information using ntpdc, changing
servers for example, but it won't reread the config file itself right
now. So for the DHCP client to have an influence on what it uses for
servers it either needs to use ntpdc, send private mode 7 NTP packets,
restart ntpd, or have some sort of interface futer may dynamically receive from an 'upstream'

Well, if ntpd can poke the DHCP client for new values, presumably it can
request new values from the DHCP server to pass back to ntpd. That's not
even defined.

Let me make an alternative suggestion which would make sense (at least
to me).

The IPv6 address sent by the server MUST be a site-local or link-local
address or, for an IPv4 address a local LAN address as specified by the
netmask. The client MUST ignore any addresses that don't meet this criteria.

This way the DHCP admins are restricted to use only those NTP servers
that the business owns and cannot configure one outside their own
address spaces.

Would this satisfy both sides?

The other issues with the options we've already discussed and we leave
open for now the issue of specifying NTP authentication keys for a
separate discussion.

Mark,

My biggest worry is the "set and forget" attitude of a system admin who
has more than just NTP servers to worry about. The reality is that NTP
is a long-running daemon on the client and unless something happens it
will continue to query the same client, not just for days, but for
months and even years. We can propose that the DHC client updates the
NTP server but I have yet to see anything that proposes to do that. If
the sysadmin sets up the list of NTP servers for the DHC client to use
when is he/she going to go back and check if they are still valid?

Danny

There is simply no need for the kind of complexity you're proposing.    
The reason why DHCP is such a success is because it's a great place to  
put your client configuration control information.   It works.    
Network administrators keep it up to date.   Clients refresh their

Please stop trying to create additional complexity to deal with a

complexify it to accomplish your goals - it already accomplishes them!

Let's stop being silly about this shall we? NTP servers have a real
problem and we want to be sure that proposals don't make the situation
worse.

> There is simply no need for the kind of complexity you're proposing.

Of course there is. There have been enough DDOS attacks on NTP servers
that we need to consider all of the ways that easy propogation of
targets don't work. Just remember that DNSSEC took over 10 years to
develop and is still in the starting stages of being rolled out.

That's nice. But let's make sure that it doesn't cause problems when you
do that.

> not going to happen.

You're too late. It already has. We are already in the situation that we
need to take defensive measures against existing errant NTP clients.

The minimal complexity suggested is necessary since DHCP will do
*nothing* to prevent the kind of problem that I'm worried about. To the
contrary it will most likely *cause* the problem. You don't see the
problem, we have to live with it.

No it hasn't. AFAIK, there has not been a case of multitudes of clients 
that received NTP server
IP addresses from DHCP spamming servers abusively for extended periods 
of time. My gut feel
is that Ted is correct and that this is not likely to be a problem.

However, the fact that we have had other situations develop into just 
such problems means
that examining the proposal for potential abuse scenarios is worthwhile. 
Before we start
looking for a compromise solution, perhaps we should look more closely 
at the problem.

For instance, I don't see the problem as being any worse than an 
ntp.conf file that has
the server given by an IP address. If you are going to restrict DHCP, 
perhaps we
should consider not allowing IP addresses in the ntp.conf file. If you 
think that
is absurd, then perhaps the DHCP restriction is absurd as well. Or 
perhaps not.

Brian - "Likely" isn't something that Auditor's will let you resell as a 
commercial product. Likely means that the security model of NTP is broken. 
Time transfer MUST be assured and reliable or NTP is more of a curiosity 
than the key to the everything many of us believe it to be.

But we are not talking about anything to due with the security model, 
assurance or reliability. The
question at hand is how to avoid abusive spamming of servers by 
persistent and pervasive clients.

OK but that sounds like Integrity of Opertions insurance to me, si?

Isnt the issue is how to authenticate any control processes since without 
this I can slam the server's with bad requests to make it unavailable to the 
legit users.

Sort of. We aren't talking about any protection from malicious clients, 
we are dealing with the inadvertent
slamming of a server due to long term up time of multiple clients that 
use the same IP address forever and
ever.  If a client is served an IP address at start up time, it has no 
choice but to use that address for the
entire time it is up and running. If a particular DHCP server serves the 
same IP to all of its clients, the
problem is multiplied. If the DHCP happens to be an embedded client, 
with the server IP hard-coded and
this embedded client is deployed to multiple thousands of home 
appliances, then we have the Netgear/Wisc
fiasco again.

Is this scenario likely enough to be worth making major modifications to 
the way DHCP does things?
This is what seems unlikely to Ted and I. Rather than jump through hoops 
at the client protocol
level, a requirement that the IP served not be hard coded at the server 
might be enough. A compromise
on Danny's compromise might be that the addresses must either be 
site-local, or determined dynamically
by the server via DNS lookup.

Yeah... its a possibility especially with systems/appliances that hardcoded 
the server addresses into their firmware... I still get several hundred 
thousand hits a day on the old SJ NIST Server address.

You mean the DHCP lease? True unless the connection is forced to be renewed. 
Otherwise, as long as the connection is in place one would think its proper 
to have the service address remain the same.  The same is not true of NTP 
server's though. Those should expire per some settable policy such that a 
NTP Discovery is redone every 'period' to insure the proper operations of 
the Audit/Evidence model produced.

BTW - Didnt we bring up the idea of a independant  Time Server 
Discovery/Selection protocol some time ago. This is a dance that is done 
periodically to renew the validity of the policy controls in the NTP system.

Yeah - I lost use of several IP's permanently because of this issue...

I agree that DNS is another way to carry the Time Server addresses, and they 
could easily be setup as Well Known Services, which might work pretty well.

This is simply not true.   The client would get the currently- 
configured NTP server IP address every time it renews its lease.    
It's true that some NTP clients may not bother to check their  
configuration information for updates, but it is not true that they  
have no choice - checking for configuration updates is trivial.

Indeed, I would say that at this late date, a network service that  
gets its configuration information from the DHCP client, but does not  
follow updates to that information, is broken.  Information provided  
by the local DHCP server will most likely change when the client moves  
from network to network.   The information that worked on one network  
may not work at all on another.   This is true whether the information  
is a domain name or an IP address.

I would think that this should be a push operation from the dhcp
client rather than a pull operation.  A trivial push would be for
the DHCP client to re-start the NTP client on address change (NTP
server and optionally lease address change).

I already do the later as the NTP client doesn't notice lease address
changes.

This is a very frustrating discussion.   Do you guys ever actually use  
DHCP in operation?   Connections aren't "forced to be renewed."   DHCP  
clients renew their leases periodically.   It's possible to set up a  
DHCP server to give out a lease that doesn't need to be renewed, but  
nobody ever does that.   Even if some random person at one site  
somewhere does it, they're not going to have enough clients to cause  
you trouble - it's only a large site that will cause you trouble, and  
trust me, they can't operate their network without regular lease  
renewals.

So in practice, for any significant source of NTP traffic, you are  
going to have DHCP lease renewals.   There aren't going to be any  
exceptions to this.

Furthermore, for clients that only do the lightweight DHCP protocol,  
there is a required refresh interval.   So again, this simply isn't a  
problem.

Sure, but it amounts to the same thing.   This is trivial to do with  
the ISC DHCP client (which I presume is the one you use).   It's also  
trivial to do on Linux with dbus.   Mac OS X and Windows handle it  
differently still, but they already have mechanisms in place for doing  
this.   So the point is that if the will exists to make it happen,  
it's trivial to make it happen.

Yes all the time.

Sorry Ted... they most assuredly do expire and if the user wants to continue 
to use those services the transport MUST renew its lease to have an IP 
address. That's what 'forces' the lease renegotiation

Uh yes they do and its one of the problems with this type of system too.

Ted, here again this is a policy issue.

Ted - this is about auditing and what's needed for digital evidence.  So we 
disagree here. NTP will not be run on platforms constrained by those issues 
if we are not careful and properly setup NTP so that the trust factor's it 
operates off of are secured as well.

I think we are all arguing at cross purposes. We have people reasoning 
about what will be,
some about what is, some about what could be and some about what should be.

The question on the floor is very simple. Is it sufficient for the DHCP 
option to follow convention
and serve an IP address or is it necessary to instead serve a string 
that represents a FQDN that should
be used for a DNS lookup and periodically re-resolved.

It has been suggested that if you are going to serve up a string, a URL 
that points to a configuration
file to be used would offer the most general mechanism for 
configuration, but this is highly problematic
since there is no implementation agnostic configuration language it it 
is way, way out of scope to think
about making one. This this idea is rejected.

So, the advantage of serving a FQDN is that the client is forced to 
resolve the host and get the IP
addresses from DNS and removal of an IP from the DNS name system will 
cause all the traffic
to that IP to eventually disappear.

The disadvantage is that it forces client to run and configure a 
resolver and potentially adds a lot
of overhead to the DHCP protocol.

Ted maintains that as a practical matter, the same effect is achieved 
with the IP address.
We can specify in the DHCP protocol that when the DHCP lease is renewed, 
that the
NTP client must accept a new IP address and if different from the old 
one, cease using
the old one.  We can specify that the DHCP client may only serve site 
local addresses
unless the IP addresses served are themselves the result of periodic DNS 
lookup if
FQDN's. We can specify that the FQDN used may not be hard coded and must be
configurable.

Not all of these "can"s and "must"s may be necessary or perhaps they are not
sufficient. If we decide on using the IP address, then we must also 
decide on the
musts and shoulds and mays.

I would san "NO" if it is also to be required to present stateful info on 
the status of the TS system...

But not the surious traffic to the name servers; The issues before  were not 
just the NTP traffic but the DNS traffic to resolve those names as well. I 
can speak to that first hand too.

Like most DNS servers, most DHCP servers are operated by network  
administrators.   So the network administrator goes in and updates one  
or the other, and the next time a request comes in, the DHCP server  
gets the new IP address and returns it, whether it gets it from the  
DNS or from its own configuration.

Which makes the Network Administrator liable for screw-up's and the damages

The client is not *forced* to do anything.   Whether or not it does  
what you describe depends on the implementation.   On a practical  
level, there is no difference between refreshing information from the  
DNS and refreshing information from DHCP.

You can specify things until you're blue in the face, but no  
specification that you write forces the implementor to do anything.    
As a practical matter, specifying things like this isn't really going  
to accomplish your goals.

It's probably good to write a requirement that the NTP server MUST  
process updates from the DHCP client each time the client refreshes  
the NTP server addresses option, but the reason this will get  
implemented is that clients that don't implement it won't work reliably.

I would expect the DHC working group to choose between using IP  
addresses or using FQDNs.   We don't like to have flags that switch  
between these, because they create implementation complexity and cause  
interoperability problems.

I am in favor of using IP addresses because it uses less space in the  
packet, because it simplifies client-side implementations, and because  
every DHCP server of which I'm aware will take either an IP address or  
a domain name in any configuration field where an IP address is called  
for, and will look the IP address up in the DNS if a domain name was  
provided.   So you get the exact functionality you want, without any  
complexity on the part of the client.

Okay, Todd. The proposal is pretty much SOP right now, with some slight
refinements. If you deem that a show-stopper, I think the onus is on
you to suggest a reasonable alternative.

Why?   Network administrators are already responsible for all the  
other fields in the DHCP server - why is the NTP server address special?

Ted there are issues with the Old-School methods and if you believe that 
they are the right way to operate your network nothing I can say from either 
someone who has written subpicosecond event capture code as well as auditing 
profiles for securing and making the evidence believable.

So lets just agree to disagree about this. The addition of NTP servers in 
this instance opens more liabilities than it solves problems for whether 
anyone likes that or not. Sorry, but your neat fix here opens new security 
issues and allows NTP servers to become also impacted by DHCP security 
issues.

Sorry but reality is what it is, and adding this support to DHCP opens more 
problems than it solves.

I still don't know that the service is needed I have heard a couple of 
people mandate that they think this is necessary but in actuality I still 
haven't heard anything that makes this mandatory. Especially since without 
any pain at all its pretty easy to create a set of known NTP servers and 
just use the local DNS service to propagate these. WKS inside of DNS is a 
simple method that is time tested.

You must be running an old NTP server. As of 4.2.4 ntpd rescans the
interfaces for local interface address changes. You can disable
rescanning by using -U 0 on the startup command line.

	There is no system that a network administrator can't screw
	up.

	DHCP is not the same as embedded in firmware.

	"Cease and Desist" will work with DHCP as there is a
	configuration knob that can be changed.  It's also not a
	knob that is shipped set.

Guys,

Just to pick a random message on this thread to respond to, I think
it would be Swell if a DHCP server could send back some configuration
information for the benefit of an NTP server.

If the information is "here's *a* server you should use" I would like to
see that information be either an IP (v4 or v6) or a DNS name.

If it is a *list* of servers, I would like to see that list contain any
of IPs (v4 or v6) and/or hostnames.

If it is more generic "ntp configuration information" then prehaps
regardless of whatever other formats are proffered, I would be happy to
see a URL as a choice.

Also please remmeber that there is an excellent chance that there will
be something in between ntp on the client and the incoming DHCP packet
that "handles" the information and ntp may *never* actually directly
talk to the DHCP server.  OTOH, it might.

If anybody cares, please visit (and comment if you like):

Ted...From an audit perspective Time Transfer is one of those things that 
needs an audit profile for it, and adding more loopholes is the way to make 
the security model harder to prove not easier.

It's trivial to send a private mode 7 NTP packet (along with an
appropriate password) to the reference implementation of ntpd telling it
to add or remove a server from its list of servers to use. As far as I
know only ntpdc does this currently and it's not a DHC client.

If one of the options here is for you guys to take your marbles and go  
home, I'd be all in favor of that - I don't see this converging on a  
good solution, and I'd rather that we have no solution for now than a  
bad solution - we can always try again later.   You guys remind me of  
a first-time motorcycle passenger who freaks out when the bike leans  
over in a turn, and tries to get it to stand back up.

Okay, so your suggestion is to not have a DHCP NTP field at all, but to have
the clients use WKS and DNS resolution to find servers. Fair enough.

Truly? In your audited world, can't you just preclude the use
of DHCP based server discovery if it poses such a problem?

That's the problem. its not that I think that its not a good idea to be able 
to propagate a set of NTP servers to any set of users, and DHCP is something 
that most operator's have running, but DNS is a better solution I think 
especially if there is a set of basic Time Services and addressing ala 
RFC1918 defined for them per the suggestion I sent in some months ago.

Actually SRV records are what should get used. WKS is rather obsolete.

Ted, opinions are wonderful, everyone has one, even you. As to the 
Motorcycle commentary - I used to race for Team Montessa so, I do know how 
to lean through a turn... and my commentary about the introduction of new 
risks to make the incidental world of the Systems/Network Administrator 
easier, I understand the goal its just the wrong way to go about it.

Yes and no. My suggestion is that the DCHP system could be used if it also 
had some reliable names which were predefined.

My real suggestion is that we need a Time and Trust Service Discovery 
protocol which would work sort of like how DHCP and DNS work but that also 
allows for critical events to be pushed forward as well. This would also 
work for CRL and OCSP type queries to satisfy validity of the underlying 
certificate source.

I was trying to stay as compatible as possible, but yes in the Microsoft 
world Service Records (SRV's) are the current manner to do this.  The 
problem I see is that SRV's cannot return the key as well as the address for 
secured service lookup.

Are you guys seriously proposing using DNSSEC as a way to secure the  
keys to NTP?   By how many orders of magnitude do you think this  
increases the value of the DNS root key?

Based on the messages that I see flying by, with talk of "audit" and  
"keys", I don't even understand why we're having this discussion.   If  
DHCP is the cornerstone of your security model, you are doomed.   If  
DNSSEC is the cornerstone of your security model, you're putting all  
of your eggs in a single basket.   It's no wonder we're not converging  
here - what you're proposing to do is essentially impossible!

We are not suggesting this at all. His suggestion makes no sense to me
either. At least we are on the same side for some things!

Ted,

Let me try and outline the problem again and please come up with an idea
which solves this.

1) The DHCP environment is divided into essentially two groups: Hardware
like Netgear and Linksys routers and Software like ISC's DHCP Server and
Nominum's Dynamic Configuration Server. IETF doesn't allow you to create
a protocol which differentiate between these cases.

The software side of the DHCP implementations are usually run by
organizations for their internal use and are actively maintained. I have
few worries about these since it's easy to deal with (relatively
speaking) errors that the sysadmins make.

The SOHO routers are different since the DHCP servers are built into the
firmware and shipped in their 10's of thousands to individuals and small
businesses who want wireless connections and routers but don't want to
be in the business of configuring and maintaining them.

So let's say Acme Routers ships a router with a builtin DHCP server
which provides NTP server addresses to provide to the DHCP clients and
they put just one address in it. Now say Starbucks gets all excited
about how cheap they are and buys them for all their coffee stores. Now
you have DHCP providing and amplication DDOS attack as all of those
people sitting there laptops are all set up with the same NTP server
address and sending NTP packets to the same NTP server. Note that in the
UWisc/Netgear incident it was the NTP server built into the router that
was the problem but it was only one server. Here we are having the
router distributing the address to other systems which then do the dirty
work and you'd get 10 times the effect of a Netgear incident. This is
the problem that I'm trying to solve or rather mitigate.

I refer you to the UWisc/Netgear incident paper that Dave Mills and Dave
Plonka wrote:
http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/database/papers/ptti/ptti04a.pdf
The brief slide version is here:
http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/database/brief/ptti/ptti04.pdf
It also discusses the loads on a number of other servers inclusing NIST
and USNO

PHK's incident with D-Link is written up here:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/4906138.stm

I await your suggestions on how to prevent the routers becoming
amplifiers via DHCP to bombarding NTP servers.

Danny

	Danny this really is a non-issue.

	A SOHO DHCP server side will learn its values from the
	SOHO DHCP client side.  SOHO DHCP servers do this today
	for lots of values it returns to the SOHO network.

	Today you have a check box on SOHO routers that says
		[ ] DNS servers learn from network.
	If it is not checked you get a dialog to fill in.

	Tomorrow you will have a check box on SOHO routers that says
		[ ] NTP servers learn from network.
	If it's not checked you will get a dialog to fill in.

	Similarly IPv6 PD requests will chain through multiple DHCP
	servers until you find one which will allocate the space requested.

The server runs a keepalive for this service list (NTP). When an NTP server is 
down the list entry is marked as such and not given out until it's back 
online. No administrative intervention required unless all servers die.

 Danny,


I want to highlight that the  UWisc/Netgear happened without DHCP and I
suspect that a similar incident=20
 may happen again. DHCP as you described it could be an amplification
factor but with millions of CPE wrongly configured
 there is no need of DHCP to have things going wrong.

Correctly deployed, an off-the-shelf SOHO router should not have any
server hardcoded -You will never prevent people
 from doing bad thing on a CPE router anyway - and should receive its IP
services server (including NTP) from the provider.

For all other cases, Enterprise where the DHCP server is managed by IT
people of the same administrative domain and ISP settop boxes with DHCP
managed with the Telcos, an DHCPv6 NTP hardcoded address is not going to
hurt anybody as a DHCP Client wont use an expired IP service address for
ever.

Mandating the use of site local address may complicate deployments in
the case of company mergers in the initial stage.
Again, the DHCP server is managed by people of the same administrative
domain that are supposed to configure it with=20
 correct IP addresses.

The way NTP is deployed in many SP networks is to use a hierarchy of NTP
server, so that the NTP server is very close to=20
 NTP Client. In many case the client is pointing to an NTP server in the
same Point Of Presence.

In enterprise deployments, if IT bothers relying on NTP, they will
deploy their own NTP servers and wont rely on public
 NTP servers. Needless to say that top of the hierarchy enterprise NTP
servers wont use DHCP for configuration.

Surely an ISP DNS must suffer the same issue. How do DNS implementations
deal with the same problem given that the "attack" traffic then happens
far more often.=20

Subject: Re: [ntpwg] [dhcwg] Re: Network Time Protocol (NTP)
OptionsforDHCPv6

Ted,

Let me try and outline the problem again and please come up with an idea
which solves this.

1) The DHCP environment is divided into essentially two groups: Hardware
like Netgear and Linksys routers and Software like ISC's DHCP Server and
Nominum's Dynamic Configuration Server. IETF doesn't allow you to create
a protocol which differentiate between these cases.

The software side of the DHCP implementations are usually run by
organizations for their internal use and are actively maintained. I have
few worries about these since it's easy to deal with (relatively
speaking) errors that the sysadmins make.

The SOHO routers are different since the DHCP servers are built into the
firmware and shipped in their 10's of thousands to individuals and small
businesses who want wireless connections and routers but don't want to
be in the business of configuring and maintaining them.

So let's say Acme Routers ships a router with a builtin DHCP server
which provides NTP server addresses to provide to the DHCP clients and
they put just one address in it. Now say Starbucks gets all excited
about how cheap they are and buys them for all their coffee stores. Now
you have DHCP providing and amplication DDOS attack as all of those
people sitting there laptops are all set up with the same NTP server
address and sending NTP packets to the same NTP server. Note that in the
UWisc/Netgear incident it was the NTP server built into the router that
was the problem but it was only one server. Here we are having the
router distributing the address to other systems which then do the dirty
work and you'd get 10 times the effect of a Netgear incident. This is
the problem that I'm trying to solve or rather mitigate.

I refer you to the UWisc/Netgear incident paper that Dave Mills and Dave
Plonka wrote:
http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/database/papers/ptti/ptti04a.pdf
The brief slide version is here:
http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/database/brief/ptti/ptti04.pdf
It also discusses the loads on a number of other servers inclusing NIST
and USNO

PHK's incident with D-Link is written up here:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/4906138.stm

I await your suggestions on how to prevent the routers becoming
amplifiers via DHCP to bombarding NTP servers.

happy in other ways that was never released to the public.

The problem of a hard-coded IPv4 address remains, but in this instance

Surely an ISP DNS must suffer the same issue. How do DNS implementations
deal with the same problem given that the "attack" traffic then happens
far more often.=20

Subject: Re: [ntpwg] [dhcwg] Re: Network Time Protocol (NTP)
OptionsforDHCPv6

Ted,

Let me try and outline the problem again and please come up with an idea
which solves this.

1) The DHCP environment is divided into essentially two groups: Hardware
like Netgear and Linksys routers and Software like ISC's DHCP Server and
Nominum's Dynamic Configuration Server. IETF doesn't allow you to create
a protocol which differentiate between these cases.

The software side of the DHCP implementations are usually run by
organizations for their internal use and are actively maintained. I have
few worries about these since it's easy to deal with (relatively
speaking) errors that the sysadmins make.

The SOHO routers are different since the DHCP servers are built into the
firmware and shipped in their 10's of thousands to individuals and small
businesses who want wireless connections and routers but don't want to
be in the business of configuring and maintaining them.

So let's say Acme Routers ships a router with a builtin DHCP server
which provides NTP server addresses to provide to the DHCP clients and
they put just one address in it. Now say Starbucks gets all excited
about how cheap they are and buys them for all their coffee stores. Now
you have DHCP providing and amplication DDOS attack as all of those
people sitting there laptops are all set up with the same NTP server
address and sending NTP packets to the same NTP server. Note that in the
UWisc/Netgear incident it was the NTP server built into the router that
was the problem but it was only one server. Here we are having the
router distributing the address to other systems which then do the dirty
work and you'd get 10 times the effect of a Netgear incident. This is
the problem that I'm trying to solve or rather mitigate.

I refer you to the UWisc/Netgear incident paper that Dave Mills and Dave
Plonka wrote:
http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/database/papers/ptti/ptti04a.pdf
The brief slide version is here:
http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/database/brief/ptti/ptti04.pdf
It also discusses the loads on a number of other servers inclusing NIST
and USNO

PHK's incident with D-Link is written up here:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/4906138.stm

I await your suggestions on how to prevent the routers becoming
amplifiers via DHCP to bombarding NTP servers.

Danny

	If the SOHO boxs all handed out the same address for the DNS
	servers then there would be a problem.

	It reality there isn't because ISP's configure the DHCP
	servers to point to the ISP's caching DNS servers.  The SOHO
	boxes just re advertise what they have learnt from upstream.

	ISP's will do similar things with NTP servers.  They will point
	the DHCP clients to their NTP servers.  SOHO routeres will just
	re advertise what they learnt.

	This is a non-issue.

Sounds great to me, Todd. I really think that you should pursue that.
I don't think that this is that protocol and I don't think it is
fair to hold up this one because it isn't that one.  Write a spec,
make a prototype and publish them, and then we can talk about that
one.

http://www.ipv6style.jp/en/statistics/services/index.shtml

is a good reference what we're doing in Japan. Not only by NTT.

Talking about ISP service, please see 

http://www.v6.ntt.net/index_e.html

Please look at RFC4241.
Actually, we've modified a bit in addition to this model.
Basically, we've added RA onto the uplink between CPE and Access Concentrator
because of some operating system like Windows Vista uses the strong model
for its network design.

If I could have a chance, I am grad to tell about our architecture
in Vancouvor in some proper place.

> >What transition mechanism?  

No transition mechanism.

Also,  we've already commercialized "softwire" service named "OCNIPv6".
Basically, this is as same as we've discussed within SOFTWIRE WG of IETF.

SOHO as well as just an apartment or house.

One my house in Tokyo had been equipped with residential IPv6/v4 dual ADSL
service from my own company.

I believe that this is residential :-)

(Now I personally am using FTTH service from NTT as well with IPv6 
softwire commercial service on it.)

It wasn't Linksys, it was D-Link. According to the note on his Web site

Which documents why the IETF is broken. Its run by people who do what they 
want to do rather than by folks who want any and all standards to be vetted 
and brought forth. If this wasnt true there would be a simple and well 
defined vetting process.

yeah... but this is only twenty or thirty thousand nationwide... what's a 
real problem is where someone produces a CABLE MODEM which has hardcoded NTP 
service addresses programmed into the units, and that becomes 75,000 or more 
units per medium sized city.

You mean like what happened to PHK, my and other Time Servers last year?

NetGear was upright and stepped to the plate unlike the other suppliers, 
especially our friends in SoCal IMHO -

Having been a victim of the last flurry and other providers bashing of the 
public time servers let me ask how would they know what the loads on the 
server's are?

They also didnt calculate the DNS overhead into the bigger picture as well, 
so its not just the NTP traffic, but the DNS overhead on the front side of 
the NTP transaction. The real issue here is the California Supreme Court 
ruling on whether IP addresses and Domain Names are protectable as IP's 
which are unique to those users.

NTP needs a server and server-policy discovery model. DHCP isnt it either, 
nor is DNS really, but they can both be used to prime the pump per se 
though.

I have - already. In fact there are several implementations already written 
too. One for Solaris and another port to OS/X. The problem is that I am not 
willing to give away any and all rights to this protocol specification as 
you folks have done by taking NTP into the IETF.

Better yet, look at the continuously revised participation requirements in 
the IETF and you will realize that most of this and all WG member's have 
committed fraud in representing to the IETF that they have a legal status to 
represent their sponsor's IP rights. I.e the new rules per BCP78/79.

My objection is in creating mandatory components of the NTP package which 
are not minimalistic. Implementing this code over DHCP would be a security 
nightmare from the Audit Perspective, so what I propose is that if you want 
to add this support - its you folks who make this a BCP for configuring and 
operating NTP.

Mark and David,

If we consider the already defined DHCPv4 and DHCPv6 Options, IP
services are, in (almost) all cases, passed as an address and not as a
name. =20
If we come to the conclusion that FQDN is really mandatory for NTP, I
don't see why we should not retrofit this to all existing IP services
Options.

Honestly, I would like the DHCP veterans to come forward and tell us why
they made so many bad decisions in the past :-;

That's not really a surprise. A box that is powering up, needs IP
addresses as it may not be able to resolve DNS yet. However DHCP is not
restricted to passing addresses.

In this case, you would have to make similar requirements of any IP
addresses delivered via the intermediaries between the DHCP option
and ntp.conf, or else you really haven't gotten that gurantee.

You can classify this as an ntpd problem, or a system integration
problem.

In the former, you might want to accept a HUP sometimes.  In the
latter, all the tools to restart the daemon are already available.

Whichever one you choose, you'll still get the job done.  If ntpd
accepts HUPs, maybe you can optimize 'keeping your clock synched'
across reconfiguration events.

The client itself has no need to do this.  The operating system's
configuration management system which accepts DHCP input needs to
solve this problem.

For ISC, we call this "dhclient-script", and although we package
several examples with our software I know of no actual operating
systems that use them...they all cook their own scripts that
integrate with their configuration management.

Still, it is trivial;

	if [ x$new_ntp_servers !=3D x$old_ntp_servers ] ; then
		rewrite_ntp_conf()
		rcntp force-reload
	fi

Presently, all the poking is in the opposite direction.  What I was
referring to here is that there are Server->Client messages that can
suggest the client needs to update its config, rather than wait for
the usual lease renewal timer to expire.

Yes, I thought this was a subtext of this discussion, and in my
opinion is more important than any of the security subdiscussions.

It is also good to have my facts straightened, I was going from memory
before.

> I await your suggestions on how to prevent the routers becoming

I do not believe there is any reasonable way we can provide this
with complete assuredness.

It may appear that if you gave the DNS name via DHCP that the clock's
administrator can now do clever things with DNS replies to ease the
pain on the individual clocks.  So mitigation tools may exist.

However it also opens the doorway for a clock manufacturer to set
the static value to a domain name they control - and deliver A records
for other folks' clocks.

You're screwed either way...in this case, you have some control over
firmware that has not been upgraded.


So my current recommendation is still to use binary IP addresses,
and track Ralph Drom's existing draft (which covers both v4 and v6,
I also stand corrected), in carefully explaining how a DHCP server
supplying it is expected to come by the configuration values:
Either manually supplied by the operator, or reflecting options
gained upstream.  No default values.

It's my estimation that this is the best compromise between managing
the risk of DDOS and scaling the DHCP protocol.


But I believe that the NTP community is now very well versed in the
concerns and facts surrounding this case, and I look forward to
reading your draft - whatever it might say.

making it possible to convey NTP servers in dhcpv6 doesn't seem to me to 
be any different than conveying them in dhcpv4 was. that was done 
something like ten years ago, and as far as I know that hasn't been a 
problem.

I do wonder why some folks seem to think that using DNS names would 
somehow be "safer" than using v6 addresses. if someone shipped a server 
with a canned list of DNS names for NTP servers, there would be a 
problem until the owners of the NTP servers named moved them. I don't 
see how that'd be any better than the analogous mistake involving IP 
addresses.

shipping a DHCP server with a canned configuration would not be good, so 
let's hope it doesn't happen. Mark Andrews's email seems to me to 
summarize what happens: 'home' routers have a dhcp client face and a 
dhcp server face, and use the client to populate the server.

aside from the catastrophe hypothetical, is there any really strong 
reason - anything to do with the NTP protocol - that would prevent the 
use of ipv6 addresses?

Thanks,
Mark

There simply is no defense against this.   If a vendor of a broadly- 
distributed device does something stupid, someone gets shafted.

You can write a requirement into the draft, and if they read it and  
follow it, that's really great, but my experience is that people skim  
drafts - they don't read them carefully.   They read carefully when  
something breaks and they have to figure out what they did wrong, but  
for a case like this, it won't be obviously broken until there are  
millions of units in the field all providing the same information.

So yes, by all means put a paragraph like this in the draft:

DHCP servers MUST NOT contain a default or predefined value for the  
NTP option.   DHCP servers MUST NOT send an NTP option unless a value  
has been explicitly configured by an administrator or end user.

The best defense you have against people doing this is that the NTP  
mass murder problem has made the news a couple of times, and people  
have been sued over it.   So a sensible vendor of SOHO equipment or  
cable modems is going to do the right thing, because they don't want  
to get sued.

Furthermore, CableLabs has a process for doing conformance testing, so  
if you want to be really sure that this never happens again, you  
should work with them to add this to their requirements and their  
certification process.   At that point, a device wouldn't be able to  
be certified if it did the wrong thing, and this would be a real and  
meaningful protection for you.

But the main point that I keep making and that people keep ignoring is  
that this problem is not solved by using a domain name in place of an  
IP address.   Using the domain name simply means that the place where  
the badness would occur is different.   It's still a problem for the  
SOHO box or cable modem to be preconfigured with a name like  
"NTP.POMME.FR" - the only difference is that in that case not only  
will the NTP server at NTP.POMME.FR get slammed, but also the name  
server for NTP.POMME.FR will get slammed.

So my point is that whether we use an IP address or a domain name, the  
same problem still occurs.   So the fact that the problem exists can't  
be used as a justification for using one over the other.

It would be really great if instead of shooting these offhand, cryptic  
comments out whenever I send you a thoughtful explanation of why I  
don't agree with what you want to do, you explain in clear, plain  
english why what I said didn't make sense to you, or what mistake I  
made in my thinking that means that what I said isn't correct. I'm  
sure these quips seem funny and enjoyable to you, but to me they're  
just so much nonsense.   They certainly don't serve to advance your  
agenda, whatever it is.

I'd like to apologize to Ted over this and thank Mark for his input. I
hadn't realized until Mark piped up with his response that these servers
were getting all of their information from upstream and therefore there
was always some sort of human at the end of the chain actively managing
this in the SOHO routers. I hadn't wanted to get into the details of how
DHCP servers worked but it was crucial for an understanding of the
configuration mechanism.

So I withdraw my objections to using IPv6 addresses in these options but
I strongly recommend a sentence or two be added to the Security section
to warn people about the amplifying effects of provisioning NTP server
addresses to clients in this way and their potential for DDOS attacks.

Danny,

There are two mitigating factors at work here, both mentioned in 
rfc4330. First, if the router hardcodes anything, use a DNS name, not an 
address. Second, any hardcoded name/address must point to a resource 
operated by the manufacturer or another site only with permission of the 
operator.

Danny,

FYI, in the current implementation it is possible to send configuration 
commands in file syntax from ntpq (mode 6). This is preferred as the 
commands and responses are in human readable ASCII. This is what 
prompted my suggestion that the DFCP NTP response could well be in the 
form or a preprogrammed mode-6 command and could be some other ASCII 
string if something other than current NTP is involved.

Completely wrong.

I can assure you that we do run our own NTP servers, and our customer
routers are pre-configured with a Name not an IP address to get to them.
We let our DNS servers sort out the load balancing issues (if we ever
get any).

It's working fine, and several hundred-thousand clients can't be wrong!

No, the ISPs don't work this way.  I have yet to see many ISPs that have
demonstrated any capacity or interest in setting up their own NTP
server.  If they use NTP at all, in almost all cases they rely on
external NTP servers.  It is these same external servers that they would
plug into their DHCP servers (because they can't be bothered to run
their own NTP servers), and which would then be passed on to the
clients.

Which leads us to the mess that Danny is trying to help prevent.

I'm not convinced of that.

Hi Daniel,
   I was also thinking a lot about this, and I could not find a 
satisfactory answer.  This problem has always existed and needs to be 
fixed by administrative solutions. I think this is related to site 
policy and not for IETF to specify what to do. I was thinking about 
writing a draft that just specifies this issue (clash between info 
gleamed from stateless RA based methods and DHCP based methods) and 
advises admins to come up with a policy that specifies the precedence on 
client machines.

Thanks
Suresh

Yes, I would like to agree that DNS servers could do solve such

Maybe. Maybe not. Simply make the requirement and let the
implementation decide how to fulfill it.

The reality is that the current reference implementation is
pretty robust around restarting the daemon. If the kernel
discipline is in use, the latest frequency correction will
continue to be in effect even during the downtime. Simply
have the DHCP subsystem create a new config file and restart.

Or use the ntpq/ntpdc facility to let the DHCP subsystem do
dynamic reconfiguration.

Or use another interface between the two that is more suitable
for the purpose (since the ntpq/ntpdc interface is somewhat
fragile as an internal interface).

Or make the ntpd daemon itself DHCP aware.

There lots of possibilities.

Well, kudos to ISP's that do it right. My experience is that
most of them are not nearly as responsible. None of the last
three ISP's I have used at home (all in the U.S. top ten) even
provided NTP servers, let alone served them up in DHCP options.
Of course, none of the last 4 routers I used would have done
anything with them if they had.

It's an ntpd problem though we have several methods of updating the

We really do *not* want to use HUP since that causes a restart and
that's a bad idea for ntpd which is designed to be long-running. It
frequently takes several hours for it to settle now into a stable state
and disciplining the clock. A HUP would disrupt this. Rereading the
configuration file is not straightforward either as you could well be
changing its operational behavior and not just changing server settings.
For what you are talking about with the DHCP provided NTP server
addresses you really only need something like ntpdc -c "add server ..."
comands.

If the address provided by DHCP is not providing NTP service ntpd will
drop it. So in this case it has no recourse.

With the pool config option you can now point to the pool (pool.ntp.org)
and each time you make a query you will get a different list of
addresses to use. The pool also is grouped into areas and countries and
provides a much better loading on the NTP servers in the list. ntpd will
configure up to 10 of these addresses to use.

We prefer the pool.

Because with the pool you are likely to get a different list of
addresses every time you ask (modulo caching DNS Servers of course).

ntpd fully supports IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.

If we're now going to make major changes to the core of IPv6 and combine
ND and=20
DHCP at this late hour, then it would probably be a good idea to involve
all the
stakeholders in this decision - so I'm widening the audience to the IPv6
ND team
for comment.

Hi Wes,
   I just want to clarify something. I am not trying to combine ND and 
DHCP. I am just trying to eliminate redundant standardization of the 
same info in two ways and redundant client implementations to process 
these.

Thanks
Suresh

Mark,

Slipping on my DNS hat for a moment, the whole point of DNS is that you
don't have to hardcode IP addresses in everything. You also benefit by
being able to put more than one IP address for the same name. It's safer
because the admin of the server doesn't have to worry when he moves a
service from on server to another. All he/she has to do is update the
DNS and not notify 1 million or so people that it's been moved. Can you
imagine moving a web server without it?

It does use IPv6 addresses when it's presented with one. Now what
happens if that address is not running an NTP server? With DNS you can
get more than one address back and try another address or requery the
DNS to see if the address changed.

That's correct; there is no recourse and in DHCP's philosphy there
shouldn't be.

DHCP delivers a configuration state with an expiration time and
renewal time.  If that configuration is incorrect or flawed or
unusable at some point in its advertised lifetime (as set by the
operator of the DHCP server), it isn't a problem that can be solved
by going back to the well; the configuration is likely to have not
changed.  Going back to the well without some indication (the
reconfigure extensions) just creates useless traffic.

The theory is that DHCP server operators use lease lifetimes as a
tool for limiting stale configuration and for scheduling outages
and configuration changes (reducing the lease lifetimes as changeovers
approach).


I have a vague feeling that you've found the way to express a need for
this DHCP option to be configured via DNS names.  As I stated before,
I reserve any judgement until there's a draft.

yes, I think I understand the issue. it's certainly ok to have an option 
payload that uses DNS names if that's what the service needs to use. I 
was only trying to clarify whether it was possible to use addresses or 
not, since it's only possible to use addresses in the dhcpv4 form of the 
option.

maybe what's happening is that the dhcp folks are hearing: "well, yes, 
the dhcpv4 option used addresses, but that's not really being used in 
the real world much, so let's not do the v6 option that way." if that's 
what's happening, it's certainly possible to develop an option format 
using DNS names.

are there circumstances where addresses would be preferred or necessary, 
or would DNS names _always_ be useable? my intuition is that there are 
probably some cases where it might be necessary to supply addresses, so 
it might be safest to develop an encoding that permits both. we have 
examples of things like that: the SIP servers option (RFC3361) allows a 
list of _either_ addresses or names, and the use of suboptions would 
allow mixed lists.

Just to be clear, most DHCP options provide lists of IP addresses, not  
single IP addresses, so it amounts to the same thing.   Indeed, in  
every server of which I am aware, if you configure the DHCP server  
with a domain name that resolves to multiple IP addresses, and the  
option so configured supports multiple IP addresses, then the DHCP  
server sends each IP address.

Brad,

The advice to use DNS which is in the RFC and web lists is so folks can 
change the NT server IP address from time to time and update the DNS 
accordingly. If the DHCP server followed that advice, it would 
occasionally re-resolve the name and pass the new IP address to its 
clients. It is not at all clear that this advice is followed in the real 
world.

It is followed, actually.   E.g., the Nominum DHCP server (DCS) just  
looks the name up every time, under the assumption that the caching  
name server is going to perform better than any ad hoc resolver we  
might stuff into the DHCP server.   The ISC DHCP server caches names  
for an hour - a decision I made when caching name servers weren't as  
good as they are now, and when I was a lot more naive about DNS than I  
am now.  I can't speak for the other vendors, so you'd have to ask  
them, but I'd be really surprised if they didn't do the same thing -  
if you cache the value, you have to cache it some/where/ - it's not  
quite the same as when a server looks up an address in the DNS so that  
it can connect to that address.

I don't know what SOHO routers do, in general - it would be  
interesting to investigate.

All,

I was reading the long, long, long thread(s) about putting NTP information into
DHCP, and the focus on whether DHCP servers should provide names or IP addresses
for NTP servers.

It occurs to me that DNSSEC requires accurate time. So, we have a bit of a
bootstrapping issue if we ever decide to secure DNS zones that contain NTP
servers in them and expect clients to use the server names to find them.

It seems like we have to provide IP addresses for NTP servers for this reason.

In that scenario, yes, that would appear to be the best policy.

If one is going to use DHCP to offer NTP configuration information there
are good reasons to provide IP addresses to certain hosts.  Similarly,
there are good reasons to provide names to other hosts.

Indeed, one may wish to provide a list of servers using a combination of
names and IP addresses.

But this is all true for ntp configuration in general - the same issues
occur regardless of where the configuration information comes from.

DNSSEC requires *SECURE* accurate time.

It is required that DHCP clients and NTP servers allocated by DHCP
*SECURELY* share some information for the DHCP clients authenticate
the NTP servers.

It, in practice, means shared authentication information must be hand
configured in the DHCP clients and associated NTP servers, which
means there is no need for DHCP service provide NTP server for secure
DNS.

						Masataka Ohta

PS

Still, secure DNS is only weakly secure , that is, as secure as
plain DNS that there is no reason to deploy it. That is, just as
plain DNS is vulnerable to compromised intermediate entities such
as ISPs or zone admins, secure DNS is vulnerable to compromised
intermediate entities of zone admins or NTP servers.

one approach is not to define *Prefix Information* in your document and goes
to others ND optional information. Although it seems admin issue, I don't
think we need to have a redundant method for getting *Prefix Information*...
RFC3633 lives up to *IPv6 Prefix Configuration*.

This was the next question to ask of course. How many of the addresses
in the reply are cached for distribution as appropriate? With the pool
config option we use as many as 10 returned from the DNS query. How many
of these would we expect to get if we relied on DHCP to supply those IP
addresses.

I'm not sure which hat to wear on this one. The first question is
1) how accurate? Within 5 minutes like TSIG?
2) I assume that this is both ends relative to each other?

We always had a bootstrapping issue. It's only now becoming obvious. I
had mentioned this in a previous message. One way of avoiding the
accurate time issue is to use a refclock on the system  and have NTP get
its time from there.

There are actually three different parts of this:
1) DNS Servers using DNSSEC for the zone in which they are authorative
These will have static IP addresses and DHCP would presumably not be
involved (though no doubt can provide other data). I would expect that
it would be set up manually to have ntpd to use servers specified by the
sysadmin.

2) Caching DNSSEC-aware servers
These are presumably the servers responsible for supplying the answers
to the ultimate clients. These would also presumably have static IP
addresses and not use DHCP. They too could be manually configured to use
 NTP from their own resources but could conceivably get information from
DHCP servers.

3) The clients themselves using a DNSSEC-enabled resolver. These are
likely to be provisioned with IP addresses, DNS server addresses, etc.
and presumably get their information from DHCP. These clients are the
most vunerable since presumably the NTP server would be provisioned by
DHCP which would need to make sure that they receive authenticated data.
That's the chicken and egg problem since they presumably need an
accurate time before communicating with the DHCP server to get
information about the NTP server addresses to use. If you are concerned
enough to use DNSSEC you presumably are concerned enough to use only
authenticatable NTP servers and that means using autokey protocol (now
in IETF draft). That requires a key and it needs to be distributed OOB.
The key could potentially be distributed by DHCP but you also need to
protect the key from modification in flight which presumably needs DHCP
authenticationc and encryption if that's the distribution method. The
trick here is to figure out which piece to set up first.

Ideas?

Danny

Perhaps some other ISP's involved with the NTPWG would care to comment
on whether or not the poor practice of the past is still in place, or
being replaced with best practice (which is to install their own

And I personally worked at AOL (tens of millions of customers) and the
largest ISP in Belgium (over a million customers), and I've consulted at
other ISPs around the world.  We've also had reports regarding a number
of other ISPs around the world.

Your one counter example does not disprove our experience.

	They are not the only ISP that supplies time.  Optus does and
	I'm pretty sure Telstra also does.  My home box is sync'd to
	a Optus NTP server.

> Which implies that the NTP client now needs to become fully DHCP aware.

I was going to say something like that too...  But I poked around a bit.

One alternative is that the DHCP client is NTP aware.  :)

I was going to say something like that too...  But I poked around a bit.

One alternative is that the DHCP client is NTP aware.  :)

/sbin/dhclient-script on my Linux box stuffs server lines into ntp.conf   I 
think it's smart enough to restart ntpd if the list of ntp servers changes.  
I didn't check all the fine print or try to test it.  Ugly, but probably good 
enough.

A comment says dhclient-script came from NetBSD so others have probably

I know that XS4ALL.nl also provides time servers for their clients (I 
know this because I am also the primary active member of the 
postmaster services team for python.org, which is hosted at XS4ALL), 
but elsewhere in Belgium and the Netherlands and most of continental 
Europe, I believe that kind of thing is pretty rare.  In my 
experience, it's even more rare in the less well-developed parts of 
Europe.

I believe that we have some representatives from RIPE and perhaps 
also some other registrars, registries, and other related 
organizations.  It would be interesting if we could get some data 
from them.  Failing that, I've got plenty of contacts over at RIPE, 
and I'm sure I could drop them a line.  I figure others on this list 
probably have better contacts with some of the other organizations.

We should also talk to Ask Bjorn Hansen, since he's likely to have 
contact with a lot of places around the world in his role as the 
coordinator of the pool.ntp.org project.

I know that XS4ALL.nl also provides time servers for their clients (I 
know this because I am also the primary active member of the 
postmaster services team for python.org, which is hosted at XS4ALL), 
but elsewhere in Belgium and the Netherlands and most of continental 
Europe, I believe that kind of thing is pretty rare.  In my 
experience, it's even more rare in the less well-developed parts of 
Europe.

I believe that we have some representatives from RIPE and perhaps 
also some other registrars, registries, and other related 
organizations.  It would be interesting if we could get some data 
from them.  Failing that, I've got plenty of contacts over at RIPE, 
and I'm sure I could drop them a line.  I figure others on this list

Not true.  The NS and A records for NTP.POMME.FR will presumably have 
a lifetime that is measured in hundreds, thousands, tens of 
thousands, or maybe even hundreds of thousands of seconds, and they 
will be cached on the remote end.

However, each and every one of those hundreds of thousands or 
millions of misconfigured NTP clients will be pounding the 
NTP.POMME.FR machine once every sixty seconds or so, unless they've 
managed to back off to just pounding it ever thousand seconds or so. 
If they're misconfigured, or the machine is not responding, they may 
pound it every second -- or maybe many hundreds of times per second.

There's a huge difference here.  Like, orders of magnitude.  Possibly 
many orders of magnitude.

The difference is that once an IP address is given out, it can't be 
changed to point somewhere else.

Once a name is given out, it can always be changed to point to a 
different IP address.  The current reference implementation would not 
re-resolve that name into the new IP address, but at least all 
new(er) instances would catch the new IP address, and life would be 
able to continue.

Your specific ISP was not necessarily included in that statement.

You're just one ISP.  You do not comprise the whole of all ISPs on the planet.

And I personally worked at AOL (tens of millions of customers) and 
the largest ISP in Belgium (over a million customers), and I've 
consulted at other ISPs around the world.  We've also had reports 
regarding a number of other ISPs around the world.

Your one counter example does not disprove our experience.

If the name was "pool.ntp.org", today that load would be spread over 
more than 1500 hosts around the world, and we hope that there will be 
many more participants in the pool in the future.  Moreover, Ask 
Bjorn Hansen has apparently done a fairly good job of building a 
robust load-balancing nameserver architecture for this system, and so 
far as I know would be able to handle a UWisc or PHK-scale disaster 
plus the "normal" load.

Now, 1500 versus millions of misconfigured clients, that's not such a 
great bet.  But it's orders of magnitude better than just a single IP 
address.

At the technical level, no.  IP addresses (of both forms) and names 
should have no technical difference.  Of course, this assumes that if 
you're handing out IPv6 addresses that you'll have full IPv6 stacks 
on both sides and a fully IPv6-compatible network underneath, and if 
you hand out IPv4 addresses that you're connected to the appropriate 
IPv4 network (and not isolated on some IPv6-only island), but that's 
a different matter.

At the practical operations level, yes.  See above.

No, the ISPs don't work this way.  I have yet to see many ISPs that 
have demonstrated any capacity or interest in setting up their own 
NTP server.  If they use NTP at all, in almost all cases they rely on 
external NTP servers.  It is these same external servers that they 
would plug into their DHCP servers (because they can't be bothered to 
run their own NTP servers), and which would then be passed on to the 
clients.

Which leads us to the mess that Danny is trying to help prevent.

I'm not convinced of that.

I think that suggestion is coming from the NTP community rather than DHCP.  
Using names rather than addresses provides a layer of indirection which is a 
powerful tool for recovering from screwups.

If Joe-Idiot hard wires 123.123.123.123 into his dumb box and then ships a 
zillion units, the guy who owns 123.123.123.123 is screwed.  Updating the 
firmware on enough units to make a difference won't ever happen.

If ntp.example.com gets wired in, you at least have a chance to play DNS 
games to distribute the load.

That's another form of indirection.

It seems like a sensible approach to me.  On the other hand, a lot of boxes 
were shipped that didn't work that way.  For those who haven't read it, 
Wikipedia has a good summary of the NTP mess:
  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTP_server_misuse_and_abuse


This problem has code in (at least) two places:  One is the DHCP server.  The 
other is the NTP client.  Either can screw it up.

The examples on the Wiki page didn't involve DHCP but a simple screwup in a 
DHCP server could generate similar results.  The obvious example is that if 
somebody has a NTP server address they are using for an internal NTP client 
and it is hard wired, they could easily use the same variable when they need 
something to stuff into a DHCP packet.


My vote would be to add some extra wording to emphasize this area.  Just 
saying "MUST" is too likely to get ignored.

I think the key idea is that you have to be very careful if the addresses (or 
names) you are giving out are not on your network.



As far as I can tell, all of this discussion holds for both IPv4 and IPv6.

I have no strong opinions on name vs address.  The extra level of indirection might be important.  On the other hand, it might be simpler to cleanly document and correctly implement a system that didn't have that extra layer of complexity.

But in the case of NTP clients, that assumes that they know that 
there is a renewal, and that they need to update their configuration. 
Which seems to imply that there would need to be something in the NTP 
protocol standard that says something like:

	If you got your other-protocol-specific configuration via DHCP,
	then you need to make sure that you're fully DHCP-aware and
	that you pick up all changes when the DHCP client renews the lease.

Which implies that the NTP client now needs to become fully DHCP aware.


NTP is a weird beast.  It's not like a mail or news server, which can 
pretty much always continue to use the same upstream server as 
defined in the configuration file, and never needs to worry about 
watching for DHCP lease renewals.

NTP is one of those layer 2.5 things that doesn't have the name Cisco 
branded on the side, and doesn't look like a router, switch, or hub, 
and therefore your traditional network admins may not understand it. 
It also doesn't have the name Microsoft or Sun stamped on the side, 
and therefore your traditional host administrators aren't necessarily 
going to know anything about it.

This is a piece of network systems infrastructure which acts as glue 
at the interface between the network itself and the hosts on the 
network, and since it's an edge case on both sides of the equation, 
we need to be careful in how we handle it.

There are so many of them - it's not really as easy as that.   That's  
why I was suggesting working with cablelabs - since the last time  
there was a big meltdown it was a cable modem that did it, it would be  
good to get them on board for compliance testing.

Right now, as far as I know there aren't any SOHO routers that even  
support the NTP option, so it's sort of a non-issue.

Also many SOHO routers only use SNTP, so just query the first in the
list they are given.

Not many become a NTP server for the home network, so ALL home devices
would need to have this information filtered down to them.

IP addresses are no more innately secure than non-DNSSEC'd domain
names.

So I don't see how this is different from disabling DNSSEC validation
until the clock is synchronized to the man in the middle.

Precisely as many as appear in the DNS reply.  There is no upper or
arbitrary limit internally, so DNS limits apply.  If the query is
made via TCP, I understand the DNS reply packet can be up to 64KB,
of which a subset would be actual answers.

Note that although the construction of the option contents from DNS
names has no internal limit, the resulting data buffer may be too
large to fit into a DHCP reply packet (~312 bytes, possibly another
192 bytes) particularly with other higher priority configuration
values present.  In this situation, the data is omitted entirely
rather than truncated for inclusion.

Hi Daniel,

It is not clear to me what you mean here.I am pretty sure that I have 
not defined prefix information in the document. My goal is to avoid the 
exact thing you are pointing out: use two incompatible ways to do the 
same thing. I think this draft is something that will help us go in that 
direction (i.e. standardize configuration options only once).

For existing DHCP and ND options that are already duplicated (prefixes, 
DNS...): Well, that ship has sailed, and it is upto admin policy to set 
the precedence as I said in my earlier mail. If you think a technical 
solution is possible, I would be interested in learning about it.

Thanks
Suresh

I have to ask, what would a cable modem have to do with anything.  Cable
modems do not use NTP (you can go read the DOCSIS spec to confirm that
if you like.) CableHome and PacketCable also do not use NTP.  They all
use RFC 868 TOD.

Perhaps you're confusing a problematic proprierary router that happens
to embed a standard cable modem, with a standard cable modem.

I have to ask, what would a cable modem have to do with anything.  Cable
modems do not use NTP (you can go read the DOCSIS spec to confirm that
if you like.) CableHome and PacketCable also do not use NTP.  They all
use RFC 868 TOD.

Perhaps you're confusing a problematic proprierary router that happens
to embed a standard cable modem, with a standard cable modem.

How many DHCP options are normally configured to point to services outside of 
the operator's domain? How many public SIP servers are there, for example?

As a server writer I have a built-in aversion to changing the way we 
distribute location of services, but in this case it seems justified to use a 
DNS name simply because the de-facto standard, as far as I can tell, is to 
point clients outside the admin-controlled domain. So maybe the projected use 
of the service has a real bearing on this discussion.

I've read this thread a little quickly, but it seems that we could end up 
passing multiple NTP server IP addresses to DHCP clients. If so, then the 
packet space argument against DNS names starts to break down the more 
addreses you distribute. At some point it would be less space to send the DNS 
name than a list of n addresses.

And as for the argument that a DNS name requires a resolver on the client: how 
big of an issue is this, really? How many devices are really likely to want 
to sync their clocks over NTP but not have even a rudimentary resolver?

for lists of addresses or names - or both. there do seem to be valid 
cases for both kinds of data: DNS names for load-balancing or use of the 
'pool', addresses for situations where a resolver may not be available.

I don't know, this seems backwards to me.   I think that the point of  
typing a configuration into a DHCP server would be a great opportunity  
for a network administrator to stop and think, "do we really want to  
point people off our network?"   I think very few ISPs would  
deliberately make that choice - the reason they aren't currently  
providing NTP service is that they aren't telling people which NTP  
server to contact, and most users don't even know what NTP is.   It's  
not that they have made a decision to provide NTP service using some  
other site's NTP server.

This is a different situation from a router vendor putting a default  
value in, in the sense that an ISP providing configuration information  
is actively advising their customer to do something, whereas a router  
vendor is just doing it.

Looking at several of the models mentioned
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTP_server_misuse_and_abuse, it appears
that most (if not all of) the "cable/DSL routers" are really dual-port
Ethernet routers that would sit downstream of a cable modem or DSL CPE,
in the subscriber's home network.

Two examples:

Netgear HR314 Cable/DSL High-Speed Wireless Router
http://kbserver.netgear.com/datasheets/HR314_ds_v3.pdf

SMC7004VBR Barricade(tm) Cable/DSL Broadband Router
http://www.smc.com/files/AN/ds_SMC7004VBR.pdf

(I couldn't find the D-Link model.)

These devices would look like subscriber computers from the broadband
provider's perspective.

Since these devices don't connect directly to the cable network, they
wouldn't be tested by CableLabs for conformance to specifications like
DOCSIS, because such specifications wouldn't apply.

That could certainly be the case.

Shane,

One of the reasons Autokey avoids DNS is the time issue you mention. 
However, so far as I know, DNS does not require absolute time, only time 
intervals. To authenticate DNSSEC, the certificate lifetimes must be 
valid, and that requires authentic time. This is something like Autokey, 
in that the protocol must be able to start in speculative mode and 
confirm success only when all the marbles are on the table.

Unfortunately it looks like yet another router vendor is doing this.
Information about this showed up in my email this afternoon. It's the
reason that I'm so leary of just having IP addresses. It's virtually
impossible to get the firmware updated in already shipped routers.

Ric, Alper,

"SAVA" as in the IETF effort? Or the specific approach that DSL networks
use to guard against address spoofing? I think the latter... lets keep
the SAVA arguments out of this discussion. There's a BOF in this IETF
about this, and it is far too early to state anything about the end
results. But so far all the designs we have talked about in that group
for IPv6 have involved support for both stateless and DHCP.

Dear all,
  In this draft, we are proposing DHCP Relay to support DHCP Prefix Delegation. In order to do that we suggest an internal DHCP Client in DHCP Relay entity.
  Your comments on this will be appreciated.

Regards,

Behcet

As another possible solution here, let me ask, would it make sense to also 
setup a default Multicast type configuration for use in sites that support 
pre-host registration*** through DHCP... It seems like as setting  the DHCP 
server itself could be peered with the NTP Server they represent, and as 
such it itself could serve a dual role, not per se setting open-client 
requests through NTP but through the DHCP listener.

If the intent is to provide an unsecured time source for calibrating the 
operating clocks of un-plumbed hosts, then perhaps a multicast type 
deployment would work through DHCP for this. Also DHCP could easily be setup 
to do a two layer process, wherein it presets the client to a 'rudimentary' 
state where it could communicate with an authentication server to qualify 
and permit its entrance into a network.

FWIW - I have an updated I-D for DHCP which adds this two layer process, and 
the security model it produces is pretty strong. If anyone is interested 
drop me a note offlist and I will send it to you.

Not necessarily, but rather a secured timesetting event which operated

meaning that the DHCP Server itself should also double as the NTP Server for

now.

yes it would. The idea that the DHCP server also double for setting the time 
of day of the requesting DHCP client is a good idea too.

Hello All,

Thank you very much for all your comments about our draft.=20
Benoit and I did not expect such a passionate discussion when we=20
submitted it 3 weeks ago.

With this email, I would like to summarize the current=20
situation, objections, issues, and possible solutions. We will=20
try to take into account as much as possible of the remarks and=20
questions. The possibility of an increased risk of catastrophic=20
event will be considered very carefully and will be mitigated.

First of all, I would like to expose again the motivation for=20
this work (I believe there was some confusion about the=20
rationale for it):

System administrators like to configure a large number of hosts=20
from a centralized DHCP server. Today, DHCP is a protocol of=20
choice for remote configuration of IP hosts. DHCPv6 is lacking=20
the ability to configure NTP clients. This is our main=20
motivation. So, this work is not intended to address some=20
hypothetical NTP requirement to improve its peer discovery=20
mechanisms. Instead, this work is intended to address a DHCPv6=20
need to include NTP configuration. In other words, we are=20
working in the context of DHCPv6, to make it more comprehensive.=20
One may argue that some other protocol than DHCP might be more=20
suitable for this, but our precise purpose is to extend DHCPv6=20
expressiveness.

This is not a replacement for existing NTP configuration=20
mechanisms. This will simplify the work of system administrators=20
(or ISPs) by allowing global, remote configuration of NTP=20
clients, instead of individual, per-host configuration of the=20
ntpd.conf file.=20

We try to be implementation agnostic. As someone mentioned,=20
the parameters we selected exist in the reference implementation,
but they are also clearly defined as part of the NTPv4=20
specification. The relevance of these parameters in DHCP=20
will be discussed. Some of will be removed, some will be added=20
(I encourage people in the NTP WG to propose some other useful=20
parameters). All depends on the level of expressiveness we want=20
to give to DHCP regarding NTP. In any case, all parameters will=20
be optional (in the same way they are in ntpd.conf). Only the=20
server identity will be required (IP address or FQDN depending=20
on the outcome of the discussion about this).

That being said, I tried to collect all the issues you raised in=20
a sort of 'dashboard' that I will update.
=09

Issue #1: DHCPv6 NTP option may trigger some catastrophic event
---------------------------------------------------------------

This is similar to what happened in the past with hardcoded NTP=20
servers IP addresses in SOHO routers. We can imagine that a=20
badly designed SOHO equipment with an embedded DHCP server would=20
advertise a hardcoded address over the SOHO LAN. There has been=20
no consensus yet about the validity of this scenario:

- Some people think adding the possibility to carry an FQDN=20
  instead of an IP address will solve this,

- Others think FQDN will not solve the issue but move it to the=20
  DNS system, (though it might reduce the amplitude of the issue=20
  due to the distributed nature of DNS),

- Others think this is a non-issue as DHCP servers in SOHO=20
  equipments only redistribute information they got from their=20
  client side. Bigger DHCP servers are manually configured.=20
 =20
  The same problem would happen to DNS servers if SOHO equipments=20
  would contain hardcoded DNS servers addresses. But in the case=20
  of DNS, DHCP have contributed to avoid the issue rather than=20
  amplifying it (please refer to the 2 messages Mark Andrews sent
  on sunday and monday for details).

Unless we all agree with Mark Andrews that this is a non-issue,=20
we need to fully understand the exact use case involved if this=20
problem can happen, and provide a way to avoid it. Next week=20
discussions might be a good opportunity to clarify this.

=3D> Possible solutions include:

 - use of FQDN,

 - add clear statement an NTP server IP address MUST NOT be=20
   hardcoded in a DHCP servers, unless it points to an equipments=20
   operated by the vendor. describe the risk in the document=20
   itself

 - mandatory use of FQDN ?

 - aren't KOD packets part of the solution ? (This draft only=20
   addresses NTPv4 clients with IPv6 connectivity). Maybe we=20
   can enforce support for KOD for clients supporting DHCP NTP=20
   configuration.


Issue #2: Use of FQDN should be allowed for DNS indirection
-----------------------------------------------------------

Regardless the outcome of Issue #1, there seems to be some=20
interest in the community to carry either an IP address or an=20
FQDN (ntpd.conf also offers FQDN as a way to specify server=20
identity).

We could re-define the option syntax to use sub-options. FQDN=20
and Server address being 2 possible sub-options. Other=20
parameters (if suitable) could also be defined as sub-options.


Issue #3: Irrelevant parameters (maxpoll/minpoll/burst/iburst)
--------------------------------------------------------------

When writing the first version of this draft, one of our goals=20
was to allow better control of the tradeoff between NTP clock=20
precision and traffic generated over a LAN. IPv6 has a large=20
address space, and an IPv6 subnet can contain a huge number of=20
hosts. Thus, it may be suitable to reduce the amount of traffic=20
generated by NTP clients. On the other hand, some deployments=20
may require fast and precise clock synchronization. Hence the=20
Maxpoll, Minpoll, Burst and IBurst parameters. Again, these are=20
not mandatory and will rarely be used.

- some people says you have to be an expert to set these=20
  parameters and these should not be opened.

=3D> I do not understand why theworkstation users (controlling=20
   their individual ntpd.conf file) would be more skilled to=20
   set these parameters than network administrators (controlling
   the DHCP server)?=20

If some parameter is questionable in a DHCP option, I think it=20
is also questionable as an ntpd.conf option. Isn't it?

I do remember examples of customers requesting that their NTP=20
clients quickly sync (and acquire time) on startup. If the network=20
administrator wants NTP this kind of behavior, he will set the=20
Burst flag to reach fast NTP convergence. Anything I missed here?


Issue #4: "maxpoll is useless"
------------------------------

Even people who like additional parameters, agree to say that=20
maxpoll is useless (Brian, Dave). Could you explain why this is=20
useless?.


Issue #5: "delay is useless"
----------------------------

The delay field serves as a trigger to enable/disable the=20
client volley in multicast mode. Again, I don't understand why=20
this is useless. The goal of this parameter is not to have the=20
DHCP server to measure the network delay. It is simply to allow=20
the network administrator to manually configure a constant delay=20
to compensate for having no volley (please refer to =20
http://www.cis.udel.edu/~mills/ntp/html/confopt.html where the
'broadcastdelay' option has a similar purpose). I believe the=20
default 4ms might not be suitable for all network topologies.


Issue #6: "multiple instances versus list of addresses"
-------------------------------------------------------

The use of multiple instances of the same DHCP option to=20
advertise several NTP servers seems to be somewhat confusing.=20
Depending on the decision made for other issues, we will=20
probably change the syntax of the options (or sub-options if=20
any).

Having a list of "struct" or "records" is not usual in DHCP and=20
it is not guaranteed that implementations will support it. This=20
is why we opted for the simpler "multiple instances option" as=20
we have some per-server configuration parameters (Key-ID, issue=20
#7, might become another one). Any suggestion for a better=20
syntax allowing a list of "struct" to be carried over DHCPv6 is=20
welcome.

The sub-option syntax would enable easier future evolutions, but=20
it seems difficult to use it to attach per-server parameters like
Burst or Key-ID (unless we consider the order of sub-options to=20
be relevant, which is a bit weird, isn't it?).


Issue #7: Key ID
----------------

Some people suggest it might be useful to carry a Key ID with=20
each server name/address. There is no opposition to this I=20
believe.

=09
Issue #8: Carrying an URL for a config file
-------------------------------------------

This has been suggested a few times, but has 2 major drawbacks:

 - It requires the client to be ftp/tftp/http-enabled (a lot=20
   of complexity on the client),
  =20
 - It would be implementation dependant,

If sub-options are used in the DHCP message, we will certainly=20
have the same level of flexibility.=20

----

Please tell me if I made any mistakes, I would like to converge=20
on a comprehensive list of issues.

Thanks you very much,

Richard.

The ntp.conf file is overly flexible for most users and
gives more than enough rope to hang yourself mightily if youstart to 
stray from the usual settings.

We strongly discourage the use of maxpoll and minpoll by naive
users. Likewise you should never configure burst unless you
know what you are doing. On the other hand, you should probably
always configure iburst and I suspect that it will someday morph
into a noiburst option with iburst being the default.

Yep. There are a boat load of questionable parameters in the ntp.conf
file.

That would be iburst, not burst.

Two reasons. First, the general reason that you should not be
specifying minpoll and maxpoll, is that it is unnecessary and
detrimental to the time keeping. Any reasonable client will
use the optimum polling period. Shorter poll intervals do not
necessarily give you more accuracy, nor longer ones less. There
is an optimum poll period that the client calculates and given
the likely round trip times in most DHCP configurations, that
optimum will already be in between the current min and max polls.

While having a minpoll makes a bit of sense, (i.e. do not poll
more often then *this*) maxpoll doesn't make sense at all. If
you lower it, then you are saying "do not poll less often than
*this*, even though you would like to." This is essentially
saying to use more resources than you would like to, so that
you get lower quality time synch. Making the maxpoll higher
than the default likewise doesn't make much sense, since it
is unlikely that the clients will get higher than the default
anyway. As long as the clients are in between the min and max,
it is best to let them do their own thing.

Well, the problem is that the correct delay could be different
for different clients, and is difficult to determine by hand.
I am conflicted. While I agree it would be nice to be able
to tell the clients not to volley, you can't easily get the
right value, meaning you should probably allow the client to
volley.

Unfortunately, many clients ignore KOD.  We can't depend on this

As I see it, the bigger problem is that there is an amazing amount of 
potential complexity in the configuration file syntax of the 
Reference Implementation, and 99.99% of sites don't need that much 
complexity.  Therefore, I believe it would be a serious mistake to 
try to encode any significant amount of that complexity into DHCP.

Moreover, since the configuration file syntax is not standardized in 
an RFC (as the NTP protocol is), you would be encoding a proprietary 
implementation into your protocol standard.  I think the IETF should 
be violently opposed to doing such a thing.

They wouldn't.

This isn't a transitive case.  A implies B and C implies D does not 
necessarily mean that A implies D.

The difference is that we have an entire file to work with, and it's 
up to us how complex to make that process.  We're not trying to 
encode everything into 512 bits, or even just the "important" parts.

We're also not trying to publish the syntax for all NTP clients as an 
RFC -- this is just our own internal proprietary implementation, and 
doesn't have anything to do with the NTP protocol standard.  Other 
NTP clients are welcome to support a similar syntax (if they like), 
or they could do something totally different.  So long as they 
properly implement the protocol itself, it shouldn't matter what 
configuration file options and syntax they use.

Using "burst" is inherently bad, unless you own all the resources on 
both sides of the table, and even then it's probably not such a good 
idea in most cases.  This is not a nuclear weapon you want to give to 
J. Random Network Admin, or J. Random Embedded Vendor, or anyone else 
for that matter.

Using "iburst" is generally considered to be okay, since it only does 
a burst of packets on startup, and then operates normally afterwards. 
But in this case, we could argue that we could safely assume that 
iburst should be used in all DHCPv6-derived client configurations, 
and simply drop the entire "burst" or "iburst" configuration option 
altogether.


In fact, I would argue that most of the configuration options are 
unlikely to be useful in the general case.  They have accumulated 
over the decades as the protocol and the Reference Implementation 
have evolved, mostly to solve one or another edge case, and over the 
decades we've had a lot of these edge cases.

In some circumstances, after years of experience with the NTP 
protocol as it has evolved, and the Reference Implementation and how 
it has evolved, we've concluded that the assumptions we made years 
ago are no longer valid.  However, we're caught in a straight-jacket 
that we created for ourselves at the time because we could not see 
the potential need for any other view of the situation at that point. 
So, we have a lot of legacy cruft that has accumulated.  I really 
don't think that you want to try to incorporate our old legacy cruft 
into your new protocol standard.

Keep in mind that the legacy cruft I'm talking about doesn't have 
anything to do with the NTP protocol itself, it has to do with 
certain assumptions at various different points in the code that 
implements the operations related to the protocol, and other clients 
or servers could easily make different assumptions and yet still have 
fully interoperable implementations of the NTP protocol standard.

I'm not getting this point at all.  Can you elaborate?

This is part of why I like the idea of a Simple NTP Configuration 
Service.  I believe it could be much simpler and easier to implement 
than FTP, TFTP, or HTTP.  And it would let us keep all the NTP 
configuration complexity outside of the DHCP protocol.

Um, I don't think that your DHCP messages can be as long as our 
configuration files.

I wouldn't make any claims about your ability to have the same level 
of flexibility unless you want to include the full syntax of the 
proprietary configuration files that we support in the Reference 
Implementation.  I'm not sure how that lexer and parser are built, 
but I imagine it shouldn't be a problem to contribute that to a 
willing recipient project.


That said, I really don't think you want to try to implement anything 
remotely close to the full complexity of our configuration files, and 
I really don't think you want to implement anything that does not 
have it's own IETF standards-track RFC to guide you and associated 
working group with which to liaise.

Since none of the configuration file options you've mentioned have 
anything to do with the NTP protocol per se, I think you'd at least 
need to wait until some group takes up the task of standardizing the 
configuration file options and syntax for all NTP servers and clients 
-- including, but not limited to, the Reference Implementation.



There's one common theme here:

	Standard Protocol != Proprietary Configuration File Options/Syntax

One of these you can work with and interface with as part of your 
standard.  The other, I don't think so.

You don't encode Cisco router configuration file syntax into the DHCP 
standard (do you?), and I wouldn't suggest trying to do the same for 
NTP or the NTP Reference Implementation.

And not easy to implement where you have many thousands of clients as
you have to monitor each one individually to determine whether it is
behaving correctly and hence whether to send it the KOD.

recipient project.


That said, I really don't think you want to try to implement anything
remotely close to the full complexity of our configuration files, and I
really don't think you want to implement anything that does not have
it's own IETF standards-track RFC to guide you and associated working
group with which to liaise.

Since none of the configuration file options you've mentioned have
anything to do with the NTP protocol per se, I think you'd at least need
to wait until some group takes up the task of standardizing the
configuration file options and syntax for all NTP servers and clients
-- including, but not limited to, the Reference Implementation.



There's one common theme here:

	Standard Protocol !=3D Proprietary Configuration File
Options/Syntax

One of these you can work with and interface with as part of your
standard.  The other, I don't think so.

You don't encode Cisco router configuration file syntax into the DHCP
standard (do you?), and I wouldn't suggest trying to do the same for NTP
or the NTP Reference Implementation.

I suspect that an ISP that is interested enough to be involved with the
NTP WG will be running their own NTP servers.

Hello,

First let me apologize for the lateness of this message.  We have been
uncertain how to proceed regarding the DHCP options that our project
( Etherboot Project, http://etherboot.org/ ) is using.

At the strong suggestion of a colleague I am writing to give status of
our current and planned usage of tentatively assigned DHCP options, and
to ask for guidance from members of this list on how we should proceed
to properly document our use of them.

For those that might not be familiar with our project please allow me to
give  a brief introduction.  The Etherboot Project has existed since
about 1993.  Our primary purpose has been to create and support Open
Source network booting.  Our most well-known network booting software is
known as Etherboot.

In the 14 year history of the project there have been three Project
Leaders:  Markus Gutschke, Ken Yap, and myself (Marty Connor).  Each of
us has worked to expand the capabilities of Etherboot, and in the last
few years we have created a new network bootloader called gPXE.  gPXE
blends features of Etherboot with features of PXE, and adds some
extensions not present in either specification.

Etherboot's method of network booting predates the PXE specification and
differs from it significantly. From using pre-wrapped binaries in NBI
(Network Boot Image) format to handling of DHCP options.  There is a
large installed base of systems which use Etherboot BIOS Expansion ROMs
or other media to network boot various operating systems.

In 1999 we created the website:

    http://rom-o-matic.net/

To distribute free, on-demand, custom Etherboot ROM images.  To date
approximately 2,000,000 Etherboot images have been downloaded.  This
total does not include ROMs created by downloading Etherboot from
SourceForge.net or by simply copying an existing image.

In 2002 we began an effort to add PXE compatibility to Etherboot.  This
involved adding the PXE API to Etherboot, while maintaining support for
legacy features.  The current release of Etherboot (5.4.3) is capable of
functioning as PXE boot ROM, with certain limitations.  Etherboot is
capable of loading PXELINUX, running RIS and other PXE NBPs and has
proven useful for many applications, from network booting supercomputer
clusters to enabling thin-client computing using economical hardware.

In 2005 we began work on a rewrite of Etherboot called gPXE.  Our aim
was to create a bootloader that stronger compliance with the PXE
specification with extensions that make sense for contemporary networking.

Since 2005 (which is is when I became Project Leader), we have focussed
most of our development energy on gPXE, and have made significant
progress.  gPXE is capable of both traditional PXE operation (DHCP+TFTP)
plus a number of modern network booting methods, such as:

   * HTTP(S) booting
   * iSCSI booting
   * AoE booting

Some of these network protocols required the addition of custom TCP
stack for transport.  We also added DNS support and URL parsing to
support multiple protocols.

That's a long preamble, but hopefully will give a sense of the level of
effort we have invested in our software, and how many people have come
to rely on it.

Referring to the following document:

   http://www.iana.org/assignments/bootp-dhcp-parameters

I note that Etherboot is mentioned in four places:

   128     Etherboot signature. 6 bytes: E4:45:74:68:00:00	
   150     Etherboot	
   175     Etherboot (Tentatively Assigned - 23 Jun 2005)
   177     Etherboot (Tentatively Assigned - 23 Jun 2005)

The first two (128 and 150) are in wide use.  Option 150 is where
options for our Etherboot bootloader have long been encapsulated.  We
also use 129 for passing kernel options in Etherboot.

I note that former Project Leader Ken Yap and former developer Timothy
Legge had begun work on securing options 175 and 177:

   http://www3.ietf.org/proceedings/05aug/slides/dhc-7.pdf

As early as 2002 when work on incorporating PXE into Etherboot we began
using Option 175 for encapsulation as this message from our Lead
Developer, Michael Brown explains:

   http://osdir.com/ml/network.etherboot.devel/2002-05/msg00032.html

Our usage of Option 175 continues in gPXE.

Our use of Option 177 is less clear.  We need to do further research to
understand our motivation for requesting that option and how we are
currently using it.

So, in summary:

  * We are doing research into our use of DHCP options
  * We will work on an RFC draft for our usage
  * Any pointers would be appreciated.

Thank you for any and all feedback regarding our situation. I once more
apologize for the lateness of this communication, and thank you in
advance for your thoughts.

Regards,

Marty
