Expires June 30, 2021 [Page 2] Internet-Draft EPP Registry Maintenance December 2020 1. Introduction Registries usually conduct maintenances and inform registrars in different ways. Given the expansion of the DNS namespace, it is now desirable to provide a method for EPP servers to notify EPP clients as well as a method for EPP clients to query EPP servers for upcoming maintenances. This document describes an extension mapping for version 1.0 of the Extensible Provision Protocol [RFC5730]. This mapping provides a mechanism by which EPP servers may notify and EPP clients to query for upcoming maintenances. 1.1. Terminology and Definitions 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 [RFC2119] when specified in their uppercase forms. XML is case sensitive. Unless stated otherwise, XML specifications moreover, examples provided in this document MUST be interpreted in the character case presented to develop a conforming implementation. "maint" is used as an abbreviation for "urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:epp: maintenance-0.1". The XML namespace prefix "maint" is used, but implementations MUST NOT depend on it and instead employ a proper namespace-aware XML parser and serializer to interpret and output the XML documents. In examples, "C:" represents lines sent by a protocol client and "S:" represents lines returned by a protocol server. Indentation and white space in examples are provided only to illustrate element relationships and are not a REQUIRED feature of this protocol. 2. Object Attributes 2.1. Internationalized Domain Names Names of affected hosts MUST be provided as A-label according to [RFC5891]. 2.2. Dates and Times All dates and times attribute values MUST be expressed in Universal Coordinated Time (UTC) using the Gregorian calendar. The extended date-time form using upper case "T" and "Z" characters defined in ISO 8601 [RFC3339] MUST be used to represent date-time values. Sattler, et al. Expires June 30, 2021 [Page 3] Internet-Draft EPP Registry Maintenance December 2020 2.3. Maintenance Elements The element describes a single registry maintenance event during a specific period. This element is used in a maintenance item EPP response and message. For creating a new maintenance the attribute MUST be set and the attribute SHALL NOT be present. For updating a maintenance the attributes and MUST be set. MUST be present and a server unique id and SHALL NOT be changed if maintenance is updated or deleted. A human-readable description of the maintenance is identified via an OPTIONAL "msg" attribute. MUST be present and contains one or more elements. The server SHOULD NOT list systems which are not affected by the maintenance. MUST be present at least once and has an element of , and . MUST be present and indicates the name of the affected system, such as "EPP", "WHOIS", "DNS", "Portal", etc. MUST be present and indicates the affected maintained system contains the hostname and OPTIONAL an IP address. Hostname SHALL be A-label according [RFC5891]. IPv4 addresses SHALL be dotted-decimal notation. An example of this textual representation is "192.0.2.0". IPv6 addresses SHALL be according [RFC5952]. An example of this textual representation is "2001:db8::1:0:0:1". MUST be present and contains the impact level; values MUST either be "full" or "partial". MUST be present and indicates the type of the affected system; the attribute type is REQUIRED and SHOULD either be "production", "ote", "staging", "dev" or "custom". And alternatively the attribute name could be used to define a server specific affected system for example. In that case name MUST be set: Sattler, et al. Expires June 30, 2021 [Page 4] Internet-Draft EPP Registry Maintenance December 2020 SHOULD be present and indicates the start of the maintenance according ISO 8601 [RFC3339]. Format: YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssTZ SHOULD be present and indicates the end of the maintenance according to ISO 8601 [RFC3339], and MUST be equal to or greater than . Format: YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssTZ MUST be present and contains the reason behind the maintenance; values SHOULD either be "planned" or "emergency". MAY be present and contains URI to detailed maintenance description. MAY be present and provides a freeform description of the maintenance without having to create and traverse an external resource. SHOULD be present and contains elements. MUST be present and contains the affected top-level domain. A-label format according to [RFC5891]. SHOULD be present and contains and . MUST be present and indicates if a client needs to do something that is connection-related, such as a reconnect. The value SHALL be boolean. MUST be present and indicates if a client needs to do something that is implementation-related, such as a code change. The value SHALL be boolean. MUST be present and contains the creation date of the maintenance according ISO 8601 [RFC3339]. Format: YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssTZ Sattler, et al. Expires June 30, 2021 [Page 5] Internet-Draft EPP Registry Maintenance December 2020 MAY be present and contains the updated date of the maintenance according to ISO 8601 [RFC3339], and if set MUST be equal to or greater than . Format: YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssTZ 3. EPP Command Mapping A detailed description of the EPP syntax and semantics can be found in the EPP core protocol specification [RFC5730]. The command mappings described here are specifically for the use to notify of Registry Maintenances and Registry Maintenance object mapping. 3.1. EPP Query Commands EPP [RFC5730] provides three commands to retrieve object information: to determine if an object is known to the server, to retrieve detailed information associated with an object, and to retrieve object transfer status information. 3.1.1. EPP Command Available check semantics do not apply to maintenance objects, so there is no mapping defined for the EPP command. 3.1.2. EPP Command Transfer semantics do not apply to maintenance objects, so there is no mapping defined for the EPP command. 3.1.3. EPP Command EPP provides the command that is used to retrieve registry maintenance information. In addition to the standard EPP command elements, the command MUST contain a element that identifies the maintenance namespace. The element MUST contain a child element. It is either to retrieve a specific maintenance item or to query all maintenance items. 3.1.3.1. Info Maintenance Item The information on a specific Maintenance Item can be retrieved by using command with the element and the child element . If a is sent with a that does not exist on the server side, then the result code 2303 MUST be responded. Example to retrieve a specific maintenance item in an command. Sattler, et al.

EPP Command The EPP command and response is defined in Section 2.9.2.3 of [RFC5730]. The Registry Maintenance Notification is included in the EPP response of [RFC5730]. Sattler, et al. Expires June 30, 2021 [Page 9] Internet-Draft EPP Registry Maintenance December 2020 For the Registry Maintenance Notification, there are three types of poll messages. The poll message applies whenever the domain name registry creates, updates, or deletes maintenance. In the case of a Registry Maintenance specific message, a element will be included within the element of the standard response. The element will include a reference to the Registry Maintenance namespace. EPP data contained within the element is formatted according to the maintenance-poll schema. Please see the defintion of elements in Section 2.3.

EPP Transform Commands EPP provides five commands to transform objects: to create an instance of an object, to delete an instance of an object, to extend the validity period of an object, to manage object sponsorship changes, and to change information associated with an object. 3.2.1. EPP Command Create semantics do not apply to maintenance objects, so there is no mapping defined for the EPP command. 3.2.2. EPP Command Delete semantics do not apply to maintenance objects, so there is no mapping defined for the EPP command. 3.2.3. EPP Command Renew semantics do not apply to maintenance objects, so there is no mapping defined for the EPP command. 3.2.4. EPP Command Transfer semantics do not apply to maintenance objects, so there is no mapping defined for the EPP command. 3.2.5. EPP Command Update semantics do not apply to maintenance objects, so there is no mapping defined for the EPP command. Sattler, et al.

IANA Considerations 5.1. XML Namespace This document uses URNs to describe XML namespaces and XML schemas conforming to a registry mechanism defined in [RFC3688]. Registration request for the maintenance namespace: URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:epp:maintenance-0.1 Registrant Contact: IESG XML: None. Namespace URIs do not represent an XML specification. Registration request for the maintenance schema: URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:schema:maintenance-1.0 Registrant Contact: IESG XML: See the "Formal Syntax" section of this document. 5.2. EPP Extension Registry The following registration of the EPP Extension Registry, described in [RFC7451], is requested: Name of Extension: "Registry Maintenance Notifications for the Extensible Provisioning Protocol (EPP)" Document status: Standards Track Reference: (insert the reference to RFC version of this document) Registrant Name and Email Address: IESG, TLDs: Any IPR Disclosure: None Status: Active Notes: None Sattler, et al. Expires June 30, 2021 [Page 17] Internet-Draft EPP Registry Maintenance December 2020 6. Security Considerations The mapping extensions described in this document do not provide any security services beyond those specified by EPP [RFC5730] and protocol layers used by EPP. The security considerations described in these other specifications apply to this specification as well. 7. Implementation Status Note to RFC Editor: Please remove this section and the reference to [RFC7942] before publication. This section records the status of known implementations of the protocol defined by this specification at the time of posting of this Internet-Draft, and is based on a proposal described in [RFC7942]. The description of implementations in this section is intended to assist the IETF in its decision processes in progressing drafts to RFCs. Please note that the listing of any individual implementation here does not imply endorsement by the IETF. Furthermore, no effort has been spent to verify the information presented here that was supplied by IETF contributors. This is not intended as, and must not be construed to be, a catalog of available implementations or their features. Readers are advised to note that other implementations may exist. According to [RFC7942], "this will allow reviewers and working groups to assign due consideration to documents that have the benefit of running code, which may serve as evidence of valuable experimentation and feedback that have made the implemented protocols more mature. It is up to the individual working groups to use this information as they see fit". 7.1. GoDaddy Registry Organization: GoDaddy Registry Name: GoDaddy Registry Description: GoDaddy Registry provides maintenance notifications to their registrars.
