Re: CERT Object summary (for review in Paris)
by Wilfried Woeber, UniVie/ACOnet 17 Jan '01

17 Jan '01

Below please find the most recent summary of our proposal for a "CERT Object", taking into account all the comments I am aware of - as well as a couple of proposals for clarifiaction and open issues. This is for discussion and review by CERTs/IRTs in Barcelona and input for the DB-WG meeting next week in Amsterdam. Attributes that are "DB-Standard" get no tag, the CERT Object specific attributes are tagged with "*". For the description of the "DB-Standard" attributes refer to the DB Software documentation, please. * irt: [mandatory] [single] [primary/look-up key] address: [mandatory] [multiple] [ ] phone: [optional] [multiple] [ ] fax-no: [optional] [multiple] [ ] e-mail: [mandatory] [multiple] [look-up key] admin-c: [mandatory] [multiple] [inverse key] tech-c: [mandatory] [multiple] [inverse key] upd-to: [mandatory] [multiple] [inverse key] mnt-nfy: [optional] [multiple] [ ] auth: [mandatory] [multiple] [ ] * mnt-cert: [mandatory] [multiple] [ ] remarks: [optional] [multiple] [ ] notify: [optional] [multiple] [inverse key] mnt-by: [mandatory] [multiple] [inverse key] * signature: [mandatory] [multiple] [] * encryption: [mandatory] [single] [] changed: [mandatory] [multiple] [ ] source: [mandatory] [single] [ ] - The irt: attribute assigns a unique name to an IRT object. Q: [to the NCC DB group] in your example, the IRT: attribute's value looks like a handle, and it is used like a handle in references. Wouldn't it be "cleaner" to allow person: and role: like identifications and assign a handle, which is then used to as a reference? Q: Another issue: assuming that a similar facility becomes available in other registry databases, should we try to "reserve" a handle-suffix for those handles? The use of "RIPE-CERT" got me wondering... - The mnt-cert: attribute points to a key-cert: object; it is checked when this irt object is added to e.g. an inetnum:. For all objects that support a pointer to an irt: object, a new attribute is defined as a reference pointing to an irt: object. This attribute might be named irt-c: or incident-c: Q: from an end-user point of view, wouldn't it be more "obvious" to use abuse-c: ? Q: We said that as a value for the auth: attribute, only PGPKEY-<key-id> would be allowed. Do we really need both, the (restricted) auth: _and_ the mnt-cert: ? - The signature: attribute points to a key-cert: object which defines one or more keys that are user by the CERT's team members to sign and/or encrypt messages sent by the team. - The encryption: attribute points to a key-cert: object which defines the key that should be used to sign and/or encrypt messages sent to the team. Q: should we try to find a more "obvious" name for those tags? I could think of sig-from: and encrypt-to: (similar to SMTP mail from and rcpt to :-) or even from-irt: and to-irt: Wilfried.

Re: Minutes from San Diego
by Randy Bush 17 Jan '01

17 Jan '01

i could not even get into the room. the minutes say whois users RIRs, routing registries, domain registries, registrars #1 and #2 are close #3 is a bit different actually, the whois port/protocol is used by all sorts of strange and arcane uses by all sorts of folk. imiho, we do not have the prerogative to break their uses by a change to the base whois/43 protocol. this is not to say that some group of applications of the whois protocol could not agree to use it in a common way, essentially forming an overlay protocol. randy

Moving the whois protocol discussion
by Paul Hoffman / IMC 15 Jan '01

15 Jan '01

Greetings. At the San Diego IETF meeting, it was decided that there was a desire to continue the discussion of updating the whois protocol. In the BOF, the address of this list was given for the discussion. Clearly, this list has lots of discussion that is not relevant to the whois update discussion, and vice versa. Because of this, I have set up a new list just for discussing the update to the whois protocol. Subscription information for the new list can be found at <http://www.imc.org/ietf-whois/>. The list is accepting subscriptions now, and posting to the list will start tomorrow. --Paul Hoffman, Director --Internet Mail Consortium

LIR-ALLOCATED revisited
by James Aldridge 15 Jan '01

15 Jan '01

LIR and DB Working Groups (with apologies for duplicate email), Discussed at RIPE-34 but with little subsequent action, I would like to repropose the addition of LIR-ALLOCATED as a valid status value for inetnum objects in the RIPE database. Attached is a slightly revised version of the document ("troff -ms" source version available on request) I last posted a year ago as a result of LIR-WG Action LIR-34.8. The suggestion then was that this could be massaged into a RIPE document (I think dfk volunteered!) to update ripe-185 (European Internet Registry Policies and Procedures) and that support for the new value be added to the database (and NCC tools as necessary). Regards, James -- Senior Network Engineer, IP Archictecture Group, KPNQwest Singel 540, 1017 AZ Amsterdam, NL ----------cut here---------- "Status: LIR-ALLOCATED" Considered Useful James Aldridge ----- -------- This document proposes a new value for the status field of the inetnum object in the RIPE database in addition to those listed in sections 3.4.2 (PA vs PI space) and 4.4 (Allocation Registration) of the "European Internet Registry Policies and Procedures" document ripe-185. For various reasons large registries often need to distribute their allocated address space between various parts of their organisation (for example we have separate national operations in 20 or so countries obtaining address space through the eu.eunet registry). In these situations it makes sense to document this redistribution in the RIPE database but there is currently no way to do this without throwing up errors in the RIPE NCC's auditing procedures or by removing flexibility and adding more work to the already busy NCC hostmasters by having each local operation treated as having their own allocation. Previously the RIPE database software allowed anyone to register an object with a status value of "ALLOCATED" but this was abused by people who didn't know what they were doing and so this is no longer possible and all non-NCC registered inetnum objects must now have the status of "ASSIGNED". However, having multiple levels of assignments in the RIPE database causes error reports from the NCC's auditing processes which now see anything under the higher- lever sub-allocation as being a duplicate (or overlapping) assignment which makes finding "real" problem assignments difficult or impossible. By allowing a local IR to register an inetnum object with a new status value of "LIR-ALLOCATED" it becomes possible to differentiate between a higher level sub-allocation ("status: LIR-ALLOCATED") and a final assignment by a LIR ("status: ASSIGNED"). By allowing this registration of intermediate objects it would also be possible to restrict changes to lower-level objects differently in different blocks of addresses within the LIR's allocation by setting different "mnt-lower" values without having to open the whole allocated block up for changes by anyone who might have a valid reason for updating a particular (range of) inetnum object(s). -2- An example may help to explain things at this point: inetnum: 10.1.0.0 - 10.1.255.255 netname: ZZ-REGY-19990916 descr: REGY Allocation country: EU ... status: ALLOCATED PA mnt-by: RIPE-NCC-HM-MNT ... source: RIPE inetnum: 10.1.0.0 - 10.1.31.255 netname: ZZZ-REGY-ALLOC descr: REGY - Local assignments in ZZZ country: ZZ ... status: LIR-ALLOCATED PA mnt-by: REGY-MNT mnt-lower: REGYZZ-MNT ... source: RIPE inetnum: 10.1.0.0 - 10.1.0.63 netname: CUSTOMER-XYZ-NET descr: Customer XYZ in ZZZ country: ZZ ... status: ASSIGNED PA mnt-by: REGYZZ-MNT ... source: RIPE Here the first inetnum object refers to the top-level allocation made to a local IR by the RIPE NCC and has the normal RIPE-NCC-HM-MNT maintainer field which restricts changes to the RIPE NCC Hostmasters only. The second inetnum object is registered by the central administrator of the local IR and the normal maintainer object for that administrator - REGY-MNT in this case. There is also a mnt- lower field permitting the national administrator to whom this sub-block is "allocated" to register end-user assignments. The final inetnum object here is a final assignment from the national organisation to a customer.

There is . RIPE the "community", the users, some working groups run by volunteers, some eMail lists, some meetings - and there is the . RIPE NCC a service organisation with a well-defined mandate, an activity plan, and customers like the LIRs. While RIPE (the community) is discussing Internet issues in general, coming up with recommendations and consensus, this RIPE is not the "Internet Police". Nor is the RPE community authoritative for everything that is happening in CyperSpace. While RIPE (the community) is regularly interacting with the RIPE NCC (receiving support from and providing guidance to the RIPE NCC), the RIPE *NCC* is an autonmous organisation, which by consensus of the community (and not the least supported by the financial backing of it's members and customers!) is *responsible* and *authoritative* for . *IP-Adress distribution*, . ReverseDNS delegation for the relvant parts of the inverse tree, . and a couple of other things which is outlined as community service in the activita plan. The RIPE NCC (and RIPE, btw.) is NOT authoritative for any ccTLD administration issues! Indeed, for coordination issues regarding ccTLDs (mostly in Europe), another organistion was formed and has taken responsibilty (CENTR, see their info pages at http://www.centr.org/) nd CENTR is workling **** within the framework of ICANN/IANA. > * > * Whatfor we pay 2100 Euro every jear ? > * **** I guess for the services as extended by the RIPE NCC according to **** your customer and membership agreement??? > * Please also give the national domain organisation like e.g. > * Denic > * > * the order to take our full Ripe handles as nic-hdl. **** Neither the RIPE NCC, nor any of the RIPE Working Groups would have any authority to do so. The Organisations you are pointing fingers at can accept input and guidance, and usually they do, but they also have to operate according to their existing administrative, legal and financial framework, and responsibility to their constituencies. It would certainly be helpful if you could summarize your concerns **** and forward them to the relvant channels (e.g. CENTR)! > * > * e.g. > * whois -h whois.ripe.net AJ4-RIPE > * > * RIPE says: > * > * % Rights restricted by copyright.
