<t>
The metadata model is a class diagram in Unified Modelling Language(UML). The model describes the structure of metadata in general by showing the classes, their attributes, and the relationships among the classes. Each block in the model above represents a class. The linkages between the classes represent the relationships which can be associations or composition.
The metadata is conveyed from SRC to SRS.
</t>
<t>The model allows the capture of a snapshot of a recording's metadata at a given instant in time. Metadata changes to reflect changes in what is being recorded. For example, if a participant joins a conference, then the SRC sends the SRS a snapshot of metadata having that participant information (with attributes like name/AoR pair and associate-time.)</t>
<t>Some of the metadata is not required to be conveyed explicitly from the SRC to the SRS, if it can be obtained contextually by the SRS(e.g., from SIP or SDP signalling).</t>
</section>
<section title ="Recording metadata Format">
<t>
This section gives an overview of the Recording metadata format. Some data from the metadata model is assumed to be made available to the SRS through Session Description Protocol (SDP)<xref target="RFC4566"/>, and therefore this data is not represented in the XML document format specified in this document. SDP attributes describe different media formats like audio, video. The other metadata attributes, such as participant details, are represented in a new Recording specific XML document of type 'application/rs-metadata+xml'. The SDP label attribute <xref target="RFC4574"/> provides an identifier by which a metadata XML document can refer to a specific media description in the SDP sent from the SRC to the SRS.
</t>
<t>
The XML document format can be used to represent either the complete metadata or a partial update to the metadata. The latter includes only elements that have changed compared to the previously reported metadata.
</t>
<section title="XML data format">
<t><![CDATA[
Every recording metadata XML document MUST contain a <recording> element. The <recording> element acts as a container for all other elements in this XML document.
]]></t>
<t>
A recording object is an XML document. It MUST have the XML declaration and it SHOULD contain an encoding declaration in the XML declaration, e.g., <![CDATA[ "<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>". ]]> If the charset parameter of the MIME content type declaration is present and it is different from the encoding declaration, the charset parameter takes precedence.
</t>
<t>
Every application conforming to this specification MUST accept the UTF-8 character encoding to ensure the minimal interoperability.
</t>
<t>
Syntax and semantic errors in an XML document should be reported to the originator using application specific mechanisms.
</t>
<section title="Namespace">
<t>
The namespace URI for elements defined by this specification is a Uniform Resource Namespace (URN) <xref target="RFC2141"/>, using the namespace identifier 'ietf' defined by <xref target="RFC2648"/> and extended by <xref target="RFC3688"/>.
</t>
<t>
The URN is: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:recording:1
</t>
</section>
<section title="recording">
<t><![CDATA[
The <recording> element MUST contain an xmlns namespace attribute with value as urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:recording:1. One recording element MUST be present in every recording metadata XML document.
]]></t>
<t><![CDATA[
A recording element MAY contain a <dataMode> element indicating whether the XML document is a complete document or a partial update. If no <dataMode> element is present then the default value is "complete".
]]></t>
</section>

<section title="Recording Metadata classes">

<list style='symbols'>
<t>session_id - This attribute is used to uniquely identify an instance of CS object namely the session XML element with in the metadata XML document. session_id is generated using the rules mentioned in <xref target="sec-uuid"/>.</t>
<t>reason - This represents the reason why a CS was terminated. The value for this attribute is derived from SIP Reason header <xref target="RFC3326"/> of CS. There MAY be multiple instances of the reason XML element inside a session element. The reason XML element has 'protocol' as an attribute, which indicates the protocol from which the reason string is derived. The default value for protocol attribute is "SIP". The reason element can be derived from a SIP Reason header in the CS.</t>
<t>sipSessionID - This attribute carries sip Session-ID defined in <xref target="I-D.ietf-insipid-session-id"/>. Each CS object can have zero or more sipSessionID elements. More than one sipSessionID may be present in a CS for Conference flows. For example, if three participants A, B and C are in a conference that has a focus acting as SRC, the metadata sent from the SRC to the SRS will likely have three sipSessionID elements that correspond to the SIP dialogs the focus has with each of the three participants.</t>
<t>group-ref - A group-ref attribute MAY be present to indicate the group to which the enclosing session belongs.</t>
<t>start-time - This optional attribute represents start time of CS as seen by SRC.</t>

</t>
<t>
This document does not specify attributes relating to what should
happen to a recording of a CS after it has been delivered to the SRS
(E.g., how long to retain the recording, what access controls to
apply.) The SRS is assumed to behave in accordance with its local policy. The ability for the SRC to influence this policy is outside the scope of this document. However if there are implementations where SRC desires to specify its own policy preferences, this could be sent as extension data attached to the CS.

<section title="Linkages">

A CS is linked to CS-Group, Participant, Media Stream and RS classes using the association relationship. Association between CS and Participant allows:
</t>
<t>
<list style='symbols'>
<t>CS to have zero or more participants</t>
<t>
Participant is associated with zero or more CSs. This includes participants who are not directly part of any CS. An example of such a case is participants in a premixed media stream. The SRC may have knowledge of such participants, yet not have any signaling relationship with them. This might arise if one participant in CS is a conference focus. To summarize, even if the SRC does not have direct signalling relationships with all participants in a CS, it should nevertheless create a participant object for each participant that it knows about.
</t>
<t>The model also allows participants in CS that are not participants in the media. An example is the identity of a Third Party Call Control(3pcc) that has initiated a CS to two or more participants of the CS. Another example is the identity of a conference focus. Of course a focus is probably in the media, but since it may only be there as a mixer, it may not report itself as a participant in any of the media streams.

</t>
<t>Association between CS and Media Stream allows:</t>
<t>
<list style='symbols'>
<t>A CS to have zero or more streams</t>

A stream can be associated with at most one CS. A stream in a persistent RS is not required to be associated with any CS before the CS is created and hence the zero associationa is allowed.

At a time, any of the time tuple associate-time or disassociate-time MAY exist in the element namely group, session, participant and not both timestamp at the same time.
</t>
<t>
As a security measure, the timestamp element SHOULD be included in all tuples unless the exact time of the status change cannot be determined.

<section anchor="sec-uuid" title="Unique ID format">
<t> A Unique id is generated in two steps:
<list style='symbols'>
<t>the UUID is created using <xref target="RFC4122"/> </t>
<t>the UUID is encoded using base64 as defined in <xref target="RFC4648"/> </t>
</list>
</t>
<t> The above mentioned unique-id mechanism SHOULD be used for each metadata element. Multiple SRCs can refer to the same element/UUID (how each SRC learns the UUID here is out of scope of SIPREC)</t>
</section>
<section title="Metadata version Indicator">
<t> This section defines a version indicator for metadata XML.</t>
<t> This version value allows the SRS to know the exact metadata XML schema used by the SRC. This document describes version 1. Implementations may not interoperate if the version implemented by the sender is not known by the receiver. No negotiation of versions is provided. There is no significance to the version number although documents which update or obsolete this document (possibly including drafts of such documents) should include a higher version number if the metadata XML schema changes. </t>
</section>
</section>
<section title="Recording metadata snapshot Request format">
<t>This section gives an details of metadata snapshot request format. When SRS wishes to request metadata snapshot from SRC it MUST follow the syntax described in this section. The SRS requests metadata snapshot in a request message and SHOULD insert a XML document having the namespace urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:recording:1. The Request can have the following elements.</t>
<t><![CDATA[ A <requestsnapshot> XML element MUST be present as the top level element in the XML document. A <requestreason> XML element that indicates the reason for requesting snapshot as a string MAY be present as a child XML element of <requestsnapshot>. ]]>

<section title="Security Considerations">
<t>This document describes an extensive set of metadata that may be recorded by the SRS. Most of the metadata could be considered private data. For this reason, it is RECOMMENDED that a SRC use a strong means for authentication and metadata information protection and that it apply comprehensive authorization rules when using the metadata format defined in this document.</t>
<t>It is RECOMMENDED that a SRC authenticate the SRS using the normal SIP authentication mechanisms, such as Digest as defined in Section 22 of <xref target="RFC3261"/>. The mechanism used for conveying the metadata information MUST ensure integrity and confidentially of the information. In order to achieve these, an end-to-end SIP encryption mechanism, such as S/MIME described in <xref target="RFC3261"/>, SHOULD be used.</t>
<t>If a strong end-to-end security means (such as above) is not available, it is RECOMMENDED that a SRC use mutual hop-by-hop Transport Layer Security (TLS) authentication and encryption mechanisms described in "SIPS URI Scheme" and "Interdomain Requests" of <xref target="RFC3261"/>.</t>
<t>Some implementations may have the SRC choose parts of metadata that can be sent to the SRS. In other cases, SRCs may send metadata that is not appropriate for the SRS to record. Which metadata is actually recorded by the SRS must be carefully considered to balance privacy concerns with usability. Implementations MUST control what metadata is recorded, and MUST NOT save metadata sent by the SRC that does not conform to the recording policy of the SRS. Metadata in storage needs to be provided with a level of security that is comparable to that of the recording session.</t>
