Abstract
This document describes the usage of the Service Code for the
Datagram Congestion Control Protocol, RFC 4340. Service Codes provide
a method to identify the intended service/application to process a
DCCP Connection Request. It provides improved flexibility in the use
and assignment of port numbers for connection multiplexing. The DCCP
Service Code can also enable more explicit coordination of services
behind NATs and firewalls. This document motivates the setting of
Service Codes by applications, rather than assigning a default
Service Code value of zero.

Internet-Draft DCCP Service Codes January 2007
1. Introduction
Most Internet transport protocols use "well-known" port numbers to
indicate which application service is associated with a connection or
message; this includes TCP [RFC793], UDP [RFC768], SCTP [RFC2960],
and DCCP [RFC4340]. Making a port number well-known involves
registration with the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA),
which includes defining a service by a unique keyword and reserving a
port number from among a fixed pool [IANA].
DCCP specifies a Service Code as a 4-byte value (32 bits). This
describes the application-level service to which a client application
wishes to connect (RFC4340, Section 8.1.2). Service Codes allow a
flexible correspondence between application-layer services and port
numbers, which affects how applications interact with DCCP, as well
as how services can be deployed behind NATs and firewalls.
If an application does not set a Service Code, the connection SHOULD
be associated with a Service Code of zero, with the intended server
identified only by the destination port number.
Fairhurst Expires July 10, 2007 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft DCCP Service Codes January 2007
2. An Architecture for supporting Service Codes
DCCP defines the use of a combination of ports and Service Codes to
identify the server application (RFC 4340, sec. 8.1.2). These are
described in the following sections. Section 3 describes the use of
Service Codes by end hosts and network middleboxes.
2.1. IANA Port Numbers
In DCCP, an endpoint address is associated with a port number,
forming a socket; and a pair of sockets uniquely identifies each
connection. Ports provide the fundamental de-multiplexing function.
Like DCCP, most Internet Transport Protocols (e.g. TCP [RFC793], UDP
[RFC768]) also define publicly-known ports for most services, whether
intended for public access (e.g., telnet, DNS) or for services
typically used between pre-arranged pairs (e.g., X11, SSL). In TCP
and UDP these are the primary means of identifying the required
service when a connection request is received.
The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority currently manages the set of
globally reserved port numbers [IANA]. The destination port value
that is associated with a service is determined either by an
operating system index to a copy of the IANA table (e.g.,
getportbyname() in Unix, which indexes the /etc/services file), or
directly mapped by the application.
The UDP and TCP port number space - 0..65535 - is split into three
ranges [RFC2780]:
o 0..1023 "well-known", also called "system" ports
o 1024..49151 "registered", also called "user" ports
o 49152..65535 "dynamic", also called "private" ports
One challenge with the use of IANA-managed ports is that this
allocates ports globally, for all hosts on the public Internet, even
though the association between a port and a service is of interest
only to the end hosts participating in a connection. As a result, the
fixed space of port numbers is being globally reserved unnecessarily.
It is more useful to allocate this name space on a per-host basis
[ID.portnames].
Well-known/Reserved DCCP ports are described in a separate IANA
registry [RFC4340]. This registry may also associate ports with a
pre-defined set of Service Codes (see section 2.2).
Fairhurst Expires July 10, 2007 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft DCCP Service Codes January 2007
The source port associated with a connection request, often known as
the "ephemeral port", traditionally includes the range 49152-65535,
and should also include the 1024-49151 range. The value used for
the ephemeral port is usually chosen by the client operating system.
It has been suggested that a randomized choice of port number value
can help defend against "blind" attacks [ID.TSVWG.RAND]. Such methods
may also be applicable to IETF-defined transport protocols, including
DCCP.
2.2. DCCP Service Code Values
DCCP specifies a 4 byte Service Code [RFC4340]. Service codes may be
represented in one of three forms: as a decimal number (the canonical
method), as a 4 character ASCII string, or as a hexadecimal number.
The Service Code identifies the application-level service to which a
client application wishes to connect. It is present only in DCCP-
Connect and DCCP-Response packets and permits a more flexible
correspondence between services and port numbers than possible using
using the corresponding socket pair (4-tuple of layer-3 addresses and
layer-4 ports). This decouples the use of ports for connection
demultiplexing and state management, from their use to indicate a
desired endpoint service.
One method of operation is to assign one Service Code per Port,
although multiple applications may be permitted on the same port (if
a Server implementation permits this).
Service Codes allow a larger number of concurrent connections for a
particular service than possible using well-known port numbers, by
allowing endpoints to allocate their own port numbers separately,
based on services they deploy (c.f. section 2.1).
2.3. Zero Service Code
A Service Code value of zero indicates that the Service Code function
is not used by a client. A server uses only the destination port
number to identify the required application (as in section 2.1).
2.4. Reception of a DCCP-Request with a bound Service Code
A Service Code value may be associated by the client (initiator of
the DCCP-Request), and is used by the server (recipient of the DCCP-
Request) to associate the connection with the corresponding
application. This association MUST be explicit (i.e. the requested
Service Code MUST have been previously bound to the destination port
at the server). Once connected, the server returns a copy of the
Fairhurst Expires July 10, 2007 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft DCCP Service Codes January 2007
Service Code in the DCCP-Response packet completing the initial
handshake [RFC4340].
2.5. Reception of a DCCP-Request with an unbound Service Code
DCCP defines a number of possible error conditions that may arise in
processing of a Connection Request:
o Connection Refused (Invalid port)
o Too Busy (Service Code/Port may be valid)
o Bad Service Code (Invalid Service Code for specified port)
Reception of a DCCP-Request with an invalid destination port MUST
result in the DCCP-Request being rejected, and sending a DCCP-Reset
with Reset Code "Connection Refused". A server MAY also use the Reset
Code "Too Busy" (RFC 4340, sec. 8.1.3).
Reception of a DCCP-Request for a port number where the Service Code
that is not bound MUST result in the DCCP-Request being rejected,
and returning a DCCP-Reset with Reset Code "Bad Service Code" (RFC
4340, sec. 8.1.2).
2.6. SDP for describing Service Codes
Methods that currently signal the use of port numbers, such as the
Session Description Protocol (SDP) require extension to support DCCP
Service Codes [ID.DCCP.RTP].
3. Use of the DCCP Service Code
Like UDP, DCCP uses port numbers to demultiplex connections. Upon
receipt of a DCCP-Request including the Service Code, the Code is
matched against a list of available services.
3.1. Setting Service Codes at the Sender
Applications SHOULD specify an appropriate Service Code when sending
a DCCP-Request packet. Valid Service Codes should be selected from
the set of values assigned in the DCCP Service Code Registry
maintained by IANA [IANA-SC], or from the uncoordinated private space
(RFC 4340, sec. 8.1.2.). An application that does not set a Service
Code, SHOULD be associated with a Service Code value of zero.
Fairhurst Expires July 10, 2007 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft DCCP Service Codes January 2007
3.2. Using Service Codes in the Network
Port numbers and IP addresses are the accepted methods to identify a
flow within an IP network. When the DCCP header has not been
encrypted, Middleboxes [RFC3234], such as firewalls, can instead use
the Service Code to identify the application (even when running on a
non-standard port). Middlebox devices are therefore expected to check
Service Code values before port numbers for DCCP. The Service Code
values on DCCP-Requests should be used for supplementary checks
[RFC4340]. Section 4.1 describes some issues that may arise in this
case.
The use of the DCCP Service Code can potentially lead to interactions
with other protocols that interpret or modify DCCP port numbers. This
includes IPsec and other firewall systems, other security mechanisms,
other in-band exchange of port numbers, and network address
translators (NATs).
Network address and port translators, known collectively as NATs, not
only interpret DCCP ports, but may also translate/modify them
[RFC2993]. This interferes with the use of ports for service
identification [RFC3234]. The DCCP Service Code may allow services to
be identified behind NATs if NATs are not further extended to
translate Service Codes. Middleboxes should not modify the Service
Code unless they change the service that a connection is accessing.
DCCP connections identified by the Service Code continue to use IP
addresses and ports, although neither port number may be well-
known/reserved. Translation of these ports need to be considered in
the operation of NATs. In addition, DCCP Service Codes can reduce the
need to correctly interpret port numbers, leading to new
opportunities for network address and port translators.
3.3. Using Service Codes at the Receiver
An implementation MUST allow a server application to bind to a
Service Code on a fixed port. The Service Code of zero may be the
default, indicating that no specific Service Code is in use.
An implementation MAY allow server applications to bind to a Service
Code specifying a set of acceptable ports.
The DCCP Service Codes associates a DCCP Connection with the service
that the client expects to be running at the server. This value MUST
take precedence over any service bound to the port number. Two cases
can occur:
Fairhurst Expires July 10, 2007 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft DCCP Service Codes January 2007
o When a DCCP-Request packet is received with a Service Code value
of zero, the connection is associated with an application using
the destination port number specified in the DCCP-Request. If
there is no specific application associated with the destination
port, then the connection MUST be aborted and a DCCP-RESET packet
is returned. If the port is not associated with a zero Service
Code, then the connection is aborted.
o A DCCP-Request that is received with a non-zero Service Code MUST
be checked to validate that the server has associated the Service
Code with the specified destination port. If the Service Code is
not associated with the port, the corresponding server application
is used. If there is no associated application, the server MUST
abort the connection by issuing a DCCP-Reset with the reset code
"Bad Service Code".
3.4. Multiple Associations of Service Codes and Ports at the Sender
A single Service Code MAY be bound to more than one destination port
(wildcarding a set of port values). Also a single destination port
MAY be bound to multiple Service Codes (wildcarding a set of Service
Codes), although an active connection may only be associated with a
single Service Code [RFC4340].
o An end host implementation may provide a method that only allows a
single Service Code to be associated with each listening port.
This means that a single port may be used only for a pre-specified
service; however this service does not need to be permanently
running at the Server. The arrival of a DCCP-Request may therefore
require launching an application to accept messages from the DCCP
connection. This operation could resemble that of "portmapper" or
"inetd".
o When a Connection Request is received with a port number that is
associated with multiple Service Codes, the listening server needs
to provide a method to ensure that the DCCP-Request is associated
with an application server that handles the corresponding Service
Code. This may require launching an application to accept messages
from the DCCP connection. This use may allow a server to offer
more than the limit of 65,536 services determined by the size of
the Port field (fewer if system/user/dynamic boundaries are
preserved). The limit is based solely on the number of unique
connections between two hosts (i.e., 4,294,967,296).
As in the previous section, when the specified Service Code is not
associated with the specified port, the server MUST abort the
connection and send a DCCP Reset message.
Fairhurst Expires July 10, 2007 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft DCCP Service Codes January 2007
3.5. Summary of Service Code and Port Handling
The basic operation of the Service Codes is as follows:
o A source host issues a DCCP-Request with a Service Code of zero,
and chooses either a well-known/reserved destination port or a
port number announced by some other means.
o A source host issues a DCCP-Request with a non-zero Service Code
and chooses a destination port number that is associated with the
Service Code at the destination.
o The destination host, upon receiving a DCCP-Request with a zero
Service Code, validates the port is supports a Service Code of
zero and then uses the destination port to identify the associated
server.
o The destination host, upon receiving a DCCP-Request with a non-
zero Service Code, determines whether an available service
matching the Service Code is running for the specified destination
port.
o If the service is not available, a DCCP-Reset packet is returned.
4. Changes required to API to support Service Codes
The use of Service Codes requires an API to allow a service to bind
to a Service Code as well as a port number. One approach is to use
separate commands as follows:
o Extend the existing port number indicator command (e.g., Unix
bind() or connect() calls) to select a specific port number where
desired.
o Extend the existing socket parameterization command (e.g., Unix
setsockopt()) to set a service-code option.
o An information base (table) may be used by servers to identify the
set of Service Codes that are associated with each port and the
corresponding set of server applications.

and interactions with getadddrinfo() address/port lookup routine,
which has been introduced to simplify the migration to IPv6 [RFC
3493], sec. 6.1.
XXX End Author Note.
4.1. Interactions with IPsec
IPsec uses port numbers to perform access control in transport mode
[RFC4301]. Security policies can define port-specific access control
(PROTECT, BYPASS, DISCARD), as well as port-specific algorithms and
keys. Similarly, firewall policies allow or block traffic based on
port numbers.
Use of port numbers in IPsec selectors and firewalls may assume that
the numbers correspond to well-known services. It is useful to note
that there is no such requirement; any service may run on any port,
subject to mutual agreement between the endpoint hosts. Use of the
Service Code may interfere with this assumption both within IPsec and
in other firewalling systems, but it does not add a new
vulnerability. New implementations of IPsec and firewall systems may
interpret the Service Code when implementing policy rules, but should
not rely on either port numbers or Service Codes to indicate a
specific service.
This is not an issue for IPsec because the entire DCCP header and
payload are protected by all IPsec modes. None of the DCCP header is
protected by application-layer security, e.g., DTLS [ID.DTLS.DCCP],
so again this is not an issue [RFC4347].
5. Service Code Registry
The set of Service Codes currently specified for use within the
general Internet are defined in an IANA-controlled name space. IANA
manages new allocations of Service Codes in this space [RFC4340].
Service Code bindings to Ports may also be defined in the IANA DCCP
Port Registry.
Fairhurst Expires July 10, 2007 [Page 10]
Internet-Draft DCCP Service Codes January 2007
6. Benchmarking Services Described in this document
A number of simple services are commonly supported by systems using
DCCP and UDP, this section defines corresponding services for DCCP.
These services are useful to debug and benchmark bidirectional DCCP
connections. The IANA section of this document allocates a
corresponding set of code points for these services.
6.1. Echo
The operation of the DCCP Echo service follows that specified for UDP
in RFC 862: a server listens for DCCP connections; once a client has
set up a connection, each data packet sent to the server will be
copied (echoed) back to the client.
6.2. Daytime
The DCCP daytime service is operationally equivalent to the
connection-based TCP daytime service specified in RFC 867: any data
received is discarded by the server; and generates a response sent in
a DCCP data packet containing the current time and data as an ASCII
string; after which the connection is closed.
6.3. Character generator
The operation of the DCCP chargen service corresponds to the
connection-based TCP chargen protocol specified by RFC 864: A server
listens for incoming requests and, once a client has established a
connection, continuously sends datagrams containing a random number
(between 0 and 512, up to the current path MTU) of characters. The
service terminates when the user either closes or aborts the
connection. Congestion control is enforced using the mechanisms
specified in RFC 4340 and related documents.
If necessary the receiver can enforce flow control on this service by
using either or both of the Slow Receiver [RFC 4340, 11.6] and Data
Dropped [RFC 4340, 11.7] options to signal the server to slow down.
The chargen protocol provides a useful service that may be sued for
testing and measurement of bidirectional DCCP connectivity, as well
as congestion control responsiveness. The datagram-based variant of
chargen can be emulated with the DCCP ECHO service by changing the
format of the datagrams sent by the client, hence these services
complement each other.
Fairhurst Expires July 10, 2007 [Page 11]
Internet-Draft DCCP Service Codes January 2007
6.4. Time service
The format of timestamps and the operation of the DCCP time service
is equivalent with the TCP time protocol variant specified in RFC
868: a server listens for incoming connnections; after a client has
established a new connection, the server sends a 4-byte timestamp;
whereupon the client closes the connection.
6.5. PerfTest service
The PerfTest concept specified by this document provides a generic
service that may be used to benchmark and measure both unidirectional
and bidirectional DCCP connections, as well as server and host DCCP
stacks.
This document defines a generic PerfTest service. The payload of DCCP
packets associated with the DCCP PerfTest service are silently
discarded by the receiver, and used only for gathering numerical
performance data.
The PerfTest server is identified by a combination of the port number
and DCCP Service Code. It does not recommend a specific benchmarking
software to use, but does allocate a port number specified that
currently coincides with that of the open-source iperf benchmarking
program [iperf].
7. Security Considerations
This document d.oes not describe new protocol functions.
The document discusses the usage of Service Codes. There are three
areas of security that are important:
1. Interaction with NATs and firewalls (see section 3.2, on middlebox
behaviour).
2. Interaction with IPsec and DTLS security (see section 4.1, on use
of IPsec).
3. Interpretation of DCCP Service Codes over-riding traditional use
of reserved/well-known port numbers (see section 6.1)
6.1 Interactions of Service Codes and port numbers
Fairhurst Expires July 10, 2007 [Page 12]
Internet-Draft DCCP Service Codes January 2007
The Service Code value may be used to over-ride the traditional way
that operating systems consider low-numbered ports as privileged.
This represents a change in the way operating systems respect this
range of DCCP port numbers.
The same service (application) may be potentially accessed using more
than one Service Code. Examples include the use of separate Service
Codes for an application layered directly upon DCCP and one using
DTLS transport over DCCP. Other possibilities include the use of a
private Service Code point that maps to the same application as
assigned to an IANA-defined Service Code value. Different versions of
a service (application) may also be mapped to a corresponding set of
Service Code values. Care needs to be exercised when interpreting the
mapping the Service Code value to the corresponding service.
Processing of Service Codes may imply more processing than currently
associated with incoming port numbers. Implementers need to guard
against increasing opportunities for Denial of Service attack.
8. IANA Considerations
A set of service are define in section 6.
8.1. Port number values allocated by this document
This document requests allocation of the following code points from
the IANA DCCP Port numbers registry:

2) * Reference is this document.
The document notes that it is NOT required to supply an approved
document (e.g. a published RFC) to support an application for a DCCP
Service Code or port number value, although RFCs may be used to
request Service Code values via the IANA Considerations section (e.g.
[ID.DTLS.DCCP], [ID.DCCP.RTP]).
9. Conclusions
This document discusses the operation of service codes by the DCCP
transport protocol [RFC4340] and motivates their use. The document
augments and clarifies the way in which DCCP applications should use
the Service Code Feature. It does not update or obsolete the protocol
defined in RFC4340.
Service Codes, or similar concepts may also be useful to other IETF
Transport Protocols [ID.Portnames]).
