<abstract>
<t>
This document is one of a collection that together describe the
Registration Data Access Protocol (RDAP). It describes
how RDAP is transported using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP).
RDAP is a successor protocol to the very old WHOIS protocol.
</t>
</abstract>
</front>
<middle>
<section title="Introduction">
<t>
This document describes the usage of HTTP<xref target="RFC7230"></xref> for Registration Data
Directory Services. The goal of this document is to tie
together usage patterns of HTTP into a common profile applicable to
the various types of Directory Services serving Registration Data
using RESTful practices. By giving the various Directory Services
common behavior, a single client is better able to retrieve data from
Directory Services adhering to this behavior.
</t>
<t>
The registration data expected to be presented by this service is
Internet resource registration data - registration of domain names
and Internet number resources. This data is typically provided by
<xref target="RFC3912">WHOIS</xref> services, but the WHOIS protocol is
insufficient to modern registration data service requirements. A
replacement protocol is expected to retain the simple transactional
nature of WHOIS, while providing a specification for queries and
responses, redirection to authoritative sources, support for
Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs, <xref target="RFC5890"/>), and
support for localized registration data such as addresses and
organisation or person names.
</t>
<t>
In designing these common usage patterns, this document introduces
considerations for a simple use of HTTP. Where complexity may reside,
it is the goal of this document to place it upon the server and to keep
the client as simple as possible. A client implementation should be
possible using common operating system scripting tools (e.g. bash and wget).
</t>
<t>
This is the basic usage pattern for this protocol:
<list style="numbers">
<t>A client issues an HTTP query using GET<xref target="RFC7231"></xref>. As an example, a query for
the network registration 192.0.2.0 might be http://example.com/ip/192.0.2.0.
<xref target="I-D.ietf-weirds-rdap-query"></xref> details the various queries used in RDAP.
</t>
<t>If the receiving server has the information for the query, it examines
the Accept header field of the query and returns a 200 response with a response
entity appropriate for the requested format.
<xref target="I-D.ietf-weirds-json-response"></xref> details a response in JSON
standardized by the IETF. Other formats may be used as well.
</t>
<t>If the receiving server does not have the information for the query but does
have knowledge of where the information can be found, it will return a
redirection response (3xx) with the Location: header field containing an HTTP(S) URL
(Uniform Resource Locator) pointing to the information or another server known to
have knowledge of the location of the information. The client is expected to re-query
using that HTTP URL.</t>
<t>If the receiving server does not have the information being requested and
does not have knowledge of where the information can be found, it returns
a 404 response.</t>
<t>If the receiving server will not answer a request for policy reasons, it will
return an error response (4xx) indicating the reason for giving no answer.</t>
</list>
</t>
<t>
It is important to note that it is not the intent of this document to redefine the
meaning and semantics of HTTP. The purpose of this document is to clarify the use
of standard HTTP mechanisms for this application.
</t>
</section>
<section title="Terminology">
<t>
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED",
"SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT",
"RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document
are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 <xref target="RFC2119"/>.
</t>
<t>
As is noted in <xref target="SAC-051">Security and Stability Advisory Committee (SSAC)
Report on WHOIS Terminology and Structure</xref>,
the term "WHOIS" is overloaded, often referring to a protocol, a service and data.
In accordance with <xref target="SAC-051"></xref>, this document describes the base
behavior for a Registration Data Access Protocol (RDAP).
<xref target="SAC-051"></xref> describes a protocol profile of RDAP for Domain Name
Registries (DNRs), the Domain Name Registration Data Access Protocol (DNRD-AP).
</t>
<t>
In this document, an RDAP client is an HTTP User Agent performing an RDAP query, and
an RDAP server is an HTTP server providing an RDAP response. RDAP query and response
formats are described in <xref target="I-D.ietf-weirds-rdap-query"></xref> and
<xref target="I-D.ietf-weirds-json-response"></xref>, while
this document describes how RDAP clients and servers use HTTP to exchange queries and
responses. <xref target="I-D.ietf-weirds-rdap-sec"></xref> describes security
consideration for RDAP.
</t>
</section>
<section title="Design Intents">
<t>
There are a few design criteria this document attempts to meet.
</t>
<t>
First, each query is meant to return either zero or one result. With the maximum
upper bound being set to one, the issuance of redirects is simplified to the
traditional query/response model used by <xref target="RFC7230">HTTP</xref>.
Should an entity contain more than one result, some of which are better served by
other servers, the redirection model becomes much more complicated.
</t>
<t>
Second, the semantics of the request/response allow for future and/or non-standard
response formats. In this document, only a <xref target="RFC4627">JSON</xref>
response media type is noted, with the response contents to be described separately
(see <xref target="I-D.ietf-weirds-json-response"></xref>).
This document only describes how RDAP is transported using HTTP with this format.
</t>
<t>
Third, this protocol is intended to be able to make use of the range of mechanisms
available for use with HTTP. HTTP offers a number of mechanisms not described further
in this document. Operators are able to make use of these mechanisms according to
their local policy, including cache control, authorization, compression, and
redirection. HTTP also benefits from widespread investment in scalability,
reliability, and performance, and widespread programmer understanding of client
behaviours for RESTful web services, reducing the cost to deploy Registration Data
Directory Services and clients.
</t>
</section>
<section title="Queries">
<section title="HTTP Methods" anchor="http_methods">
<t>
Clients SHOULD use either the HTTP GET or HEAD methods
(see <xref target="RFC7231"></xref>). The GET method should be used
to retreive a response body. The HEAD method can be used to
determine existence of data on the server. Servers are under
no obligation to support other HTTP methods.
</t>
</section>
<section title="Accept Header" anchor="accept_header">
<t>
To indicate to servers that an RDAP response is desired, clients
include an Accept: header field with an RDAP specific JSON media type,
the generic JSON media type, or both. Servers receiving an RDAP
request return an entity with a Content-Type: header containing
the RDAP specific JSON media type.
</t>
<t>
This specification does not define the responses a server returns to
a request with any other media types in the Accept: header field, or with no
Accept: header field. One possibility would be to return a response in
a media type suitable for rendering in a web browser.
</t>
</section>
<section title="Query Parameters" anchor="parameters">
<t>
Servers MUST ignore unknown query parameters. Use of unknown query
parameters for cache-busting is described in <xref target="cache-busting"></xref>.
</t>
</section>
</section>
<section title="Types of HTTP Response" anchor="http_responses">
<t>
This section describes the various types of responses a server may send to a client.
While no standard HTTP response code is forbidden in usage, at a minimum clients
SHOULD understand the response codes described in this section as they will be
in common use by servers. It is expected that
usage of response codes and types for this application not defined here will be
described in subsequent documents.
</t>
<section title="Positive Answers">
<t>
If a server has the information requested by the client and wishes to respond
to the client with the information according to its policies, it returns that
answer in the body of a 200 response.
</t>
</section>
<section title="Redirects">
<t>
If a server wishes to inform a client that the answer to a given query can be found
elsewhere, it returns either a 301 response code to indicate a permanent move, or a
302, 303 or 307 response code to indicate a non-permanent redirection, and it includes
an HTTP(s) URL in the Location: header field. The client is expected to issue a
subsequent request to satisfy the original query using the given URL without any
processing of the URL. In other words, the server is to hand back a complete URL and
the client should not have to transform the URL to follow it. Servers are under
no obligation to return a URL conformant to <xref target="I-D.ietf-weirds-rdap-query"></xref>.
</t>
<t>
For this application, such an example of a permanent move might be a Top Level Domain
(TLD) operator informing a client the information being sought can be found with
another TLD operator (i.e. a query for the domain bar in foo.example is found at
http://foo.example/domain/bar).
</t>
<t>
For example, if the client sends http://serv1.example.com/weirds/domain/example.com,
the server redirecting to https://serv2.example.net/weirds2/ would set the
Location: field to the value: https://serv2.example.net/weirds2/domain/example.com.
</t>
</section>
<section title="Negative Answers">
<t>
If a server wishes to respond that it has an empty result set,
it returns a 404 response code. Optionally, it MAY include additional
information regarding the negative answer in the HTTP entity body.
</t>
<t>
If a server wishes to inform the client that information about the query
is available, but cannot include the information in the response to the
client for policy reasons, the server MUST respond with an appropriate
response code out of HTTP's 4xx range. Clients MAY retry the query based
on the respective response code.
</t>
</section>
<section title="Malformed Queries">
<t>
If a server receives a query which it cannot interpret as an RDAP query, it
returns a 400 response code. Optionally, it MAY include additional information
regarding this negative answer in the HTTP entity body.
</t>
</section>
<section title="Rate Limits" anchor="rate-limits">
<t>
Some servers apply rate limits to deter address scraping and other
abuses. When a server declines to answer a query due to rate limits,
it returns a 429 response code as described in <xref target="RFC6585"></xref>.
A client that receives a 429 response SHOULD decrease its query rate,
and honor the Retry-After header field if one is present.
</t>
<t>
Note that this is not a defense against denial-of-service attacks,
since a malicious client could ignore the code and continue to send
queries at a high rate. A server might use another response code if
it did not wish to reveal to a client that rate limiting is the reason
for the denial of a reply.
</t>
</section>
<section title="Cross-Origin Resource Sharing" anchor="cors">
<t>
When responding to queries, it is RECOMMENDED that servers use the
Access-Control-Allow-Origin header field, as specified by <xref target="W3C.CR-cors-20130129"/>.
As the use of RDAP is for public resources, a value of "*" is
suitable for most cases.
</t>
<t>
This header (often called the CORS header), helps in-browser web applications
by lifting the "same-origin" restriction.
</t>
</section>
</section>
<section title="Extensibility" anchor="extensibility">
<t>
For extensibility purposes, this document defines an IANA registry for prefixes
used in <xref target="RFC4627">JSON</xref> data serialization and URI path
segments (see <xref target="iana_considerations"></xref>).
</t>
<t>
Prefixes and identifiers SHOULD only consist of the alphabetic ASCII characters A through Z in
both uppercase and lowercase, the numerical digits 0 through 9, underscore
characters, and SHOULD NOT begin with
an underscore character, numerical digit or the characters "xml". The following
describes the production of JSON names in <xref target="RFC5234">ABNF</xref>.</t>
<figure anchor="json_name_abnf">
<preamble>
ABNF for JSON names
</preamble>
<artwork>
name = ALPHA *( ALPHA / DIGIT / "_" )
</artwork>
</figure>
<t> This restriction is a union
of the Ruby programming language identifier syntax and the XML element name
syntax and has two purposes. First, client implementers using modern programming
languages such as Ruby or Java can use libraries that automatically promote JSON
names to first order object attributes or members.
Second, a clean mapping between JSON and XML is easy to accomplish using these
rules.
</t>
</section>
<section title="Security Considerations" anchor="security_considerations">
<t>
This document does not pose strong security requirements to the RDAP
protocol. However, it does not restrict against the use of security
mechanisms offered by the HTTP protocol.
</t>
<t>
This document made recommendations for server implementations against
denial-of-service (<xref target="rate-limits"/>) and interoperability with existing
security mechanism in HTTP clients (<xref target="cors"/>).
</t>
<t>
Additional security considerations to the RDAP protocol are
covered in <xref target="I-D.ietf-weirds-rdap-sec"></xref>.
</t>
</section>
<section title="IANA Considerations" anchor="iana_considerations">
<section title="RDAP Extensions Registry">
<t>
This specification proposes an IANA registry for RDAP extensions. The
purpose of this registry is to ensure uniqueness of extension identifiers.
The extension identifier is used as a prefix in JSON names and as a prefix
of path segments in RDAP URLs.
</t>
<t>
The production rule for these identifiers is specified in <xref target="extensibility"/>.
</t>
<t>
In accordance with RFC5226, the IANA policy for assigning new values shall
be Specification Required: values and their meanings must be documented in
an RFC or in some other permanent and readily available reference, in
sufficient detail that interoperability between independent implementations
is possible.
</t>
<t>
The following is a preliminary template for an RDAP extension registration:
<list style="empty">
<t>Extension identifier: the identifier of the extension</t>
<t>Registry operator: the name of the registry operator</t>
<t>Published specification: RFC number, bibliographical reference or URL
to a permanent and readily available specification</t>
<t>Person & email address to contact for further information:
The names and email addresses of individuals for contact regarding this registry entry
</t>
<t>Intended usage: brief reasons for this registry entry</t>
</list>
</t>
<t>
The following is an example of a registration in the RDAP extension registry:
<list style="empty">
<t>Extension identifier: lunarNic</t>
<t>Registry operator: The Registry of the Moon, LLC</t>
<t>Published specification: http://www.example/moon_apis/rdap</t>
<t>Person & email address to contact for further information:
Professor Bernardo de la Paz <berny@moon.example>
</t>
<t>Intended usage: COMMON</t>
</list>
</t>
</section>
</section>
<section title="Internationalization Considerations">
<section title="URIs and IRIs">
<t>
Clients can use <xref target="RFC3987">IRIs</xref> for internal use as they see fit,
but MUST transform them to <xref target="RFC3986">URIs</xref> for interaction with
RDAP servers. RDAP servers MUST use URIs in all responses, and again clients can
transform these URIs to IRIs for internal use as they see fit.
</t>
</section>
<section title="Language Identifiers in Queries and Responses"
anchor="language_identifiers_in_queries_and_responses">
<t>
Under most scenarios, clients requesting data will not signal
that the data be returned in a particular language or script.
On the other hand, when servers return data and have knowledge
that the data is in a language or script, the data SHOULD be
annotated with language identifiers whenever they are available,
thus allowing clients to process and display the data accordingly.
</t>
<t>
The mechanism for including a language identifier in a response
will be defined in subsequent documents describing specific
response formats.
</t>
</section>
<section title="Language Identifiers in HTTP Headers" anchor="language_identifiers_in_http_headers">
<t>
Given the description of the use of language identifiers in
<xref target="language_identifiers_in_queries_and_responses"></xref>,
unless otherwise specified servers SHOULD ignore the
<xref target="RFC7231">HTTP</xref> Accept-Language header field when
formulating HTTP entity responses, so that clients do not conflate
the Accept-Language header with the 'lang' values in the entity
body.
</t>
<t>
However, servers MAY return language identifiers in the
Content-Language header field so as to inform clients of the
intended language of HTTP layer messages.
</t>

<t>
Some <xref target="RFC7230">HTTP</xref> cache infrastructure does not adhere to caching standards
adequately, and could cache responses longer than is intended by the server. To overcome these
issues, clients can use an adhoc and improbably used query parameter with a random value of their
choosing. As <xref target="parameters"></xref> instructs servers to ignore unknown parameters,
this is unlikely to have any known side effects.
