+
+
+ The COSINE and Internet X.500 Schema
+
+Status of this Memo
+
+ This RFC specifies an IAB standards track protocol for the Internet
+ community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements.
+ Please refer to the current edition of the "IAB Official Protocol
+ Standards" for the standardization state and status of this protocol.
+ Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
+
+Abstract
+
+ This document suggests an X.500 Directory Schema, or Naming
+ Architecture, for use in the COSINE and Internet X.500 pilots. The
+ schema is independent of any specific implementation. As well as
+ indicating support for the standard object classes and attributes, a
+ large number of generally useful object classes and attributes are
+ also defined. An appendix to this document includes a machine
+ processable version of the schema.
+
+ This document also proposes a mechanism for allowing the schema to
+ evolve in line with emerging requirements. Proformas to support this
+ process are included.
+
+ Corrections and additions to the schema should be sent to na-
+ update@cs.ucl.ac.uk list, as described within.
+
+1. Introduction
+
+ Directory Services are a fundamental requirement of both human and
+ computer communications' systems. Human users need to be able to
+ look up various details about other people: for example, telephone
+ numbers, facsimile numbers and paper mail addresses. Computing
+ systems also need Directory Services for several purposes: for
+ example, to support address look-ups for a variety of services, and
+ to support user-friendly naming and distribution lists in electronic
+ mail systems.
+
+ Directory Services have recently been standardised and published as
+ the 1988 CCITT X.500 / ISO IS9594 recommendations [1]. The standard
+ provides a good basis for the provision of real services, and a
+ considerable amount of Directory Service piloting activity is
+
+
+
+Barker & Kille [Page 1]
+
+RFC 1274 COSINE and Internet X.500 Schema November 1991
+
+
+ currently underway. In the U.S., the PSI White Pages Pilot [4] has
+ stimulated use of X.500 on the Internet. In Britain, the U.K.
+ Academic Community Directory Pilot [5] is similarly promoting use of
+ X.500.
+
+2. Motivation and aims of this document
+
+ In a number of areas the X.500 standard only provides a basis for
+ services. One such area is the Directory's Schema or Naming
+ Architecture. The standard defines a number of useful object
+ classes, in X.521, and attribute types, in X.520. These are intended
+ to be generally useful across a range of directory applications.
+ However, while these standard definitions are a useful starting
+ point, they are insufficient as a basis for a large scale pilot
+ directory.
+
+ While it is possible for directory administrators to define their own
+ sets of additional attribute types and object classes, this is
+ undesirable for some common attributes and objects. The same objects
+ and attribute types would be privately defined many times over. This
+ would result in the directory's generality being diminished as remote
+ systems would be unable to determine the semantics of these privately
+ defined data types.
+
+ A number of useful additions to the standard definitions were made in
+ this note's forerunner, "The THORN and RARE Naming Architecture" [2].
+ These have been heavily used in early X.500 piloting activities.
+ Furthermore, both the THORN and Quipu X.500 implementations have made
+ use of these definitions.
+
+ Since the afore-mentioned note was issued, a number of further
+ requirements have come to light as the volume and variety of piloting
+ activity has increased. Yet further requirements seem likely as the
+ scale of X.500 pilot services increases. Thus, it is argued that it
+ is not sufficient to merely reissue an updated version of the
+ original note. The schema is a "living document" that needs
+ procedures for:
+
+ - Allowing submission of requests for new attributes and
+ object classes to be added into the schema;
+
+ - Allowing groups of object classes and attribute types
+ defined elsewhere to be integrated into the schema.
+
+ - Checking for the redundancy of any previously defined
+ attribute types and object classes.
+
+ This document attempts to establish procedures to allow for the
+
+
+
+Barker & Kille [Page 2]
+
+RFC 1274 COSINE and Internet X.500 Schema November 1991
+
+
+ continual updating of the schema. Two proformas are set out for this
+ purpose. In addition, descriptive detail is provided for the
+ additional object classes and attribute types defined in the schema.
+ These descriptions follow the style used in X.520 and X.521.
+ Finally, also following the style adopted in the standards documents,
+ appendices will include the entire schema. Plain text versions of
+ the document's appendices are intended to be machine processable to
+ allow derivation of a system's schema tables. Appendix C lists all
+ the schema's object classes and attribute types in their respective
+ ASN.1 macro formats.
+
+ The scope and intended remit of this coordination activity should be
+ clearly understood.
+
+ - Esoteric and local, highly experimental requirements should
+ continue to be met by private definitions.
+
+ - Requirements which have support from more than one site will
+ usually be integrated into the schema. Put in other words,
+ the tendency will be for the inclusion, as opposed to the
+ exclusion, of useful additions to the schema.
+
+ - An attempt will be made to avoid duplication of object
+ classes and attribute types for essentially similar real
+ world objects.
+
+3. What conformance to this schema means
+
+ It is not reasonable to require that a DSA which supports this schema
+ has specific code to handle each of the defined syntaxes. However,
+ the following requirements are made of a system which claims
+ conformance to this specification:
+
+ 1. A DSA shall be able to store all of the attributes and
+ object class values specified. (Note that this implies
+ support for all the object classes and attribute types
+ required by strong authentication as defined in X.509.)
+
+ 2. A DUA shall be able to identify each attribute type and
+ object class to the user, with an appropriate representation
+ (e.g., a string).
+
+ 3. These statement are qualified for large attributes values
+ (>1kbyte). A conforming DSA does not have to store such
+ attribute values, and a DUA does not have to display such
+ values, although it must indicate their presence.
+
+ The following are desirable, but not required:
+
+
+
+Barker & Kille [Page 3]
+
+RFC 1274 COSINE and Internet X.500 Schema November 1991
+
+
+ 1. For a DSA to match correctly on the basis of all attribute
+ syntaxes defined
+
+ 2. For a DSA to enforce the Object Class schema implied by
+ these definitions
+
+ 3. For a DUA to correctly display the attribute values
+ (syntaxes) defined
+
+ 4. For DUAs and DSAs to maintain compatibility with a previous
+ version of the schema.
+
+4. Requesting new object classes and attribute types
+
+ This section defines procedures for requesting new object classes and
+ attribute types to be added to the schema. Proformas for object
+ classes and attribute types are specified, and examples given of how
+ to use them. A mechanism for making requests for large groups of new
+ object classes and attribute types is described in the next section.
+
+ As stated earlier, it is anticipated that the schema will evolve
+ considerably over time. As X.500 is used to support a widening range
+ of applications, there will be requirements for extensions to the
+ schema. This document proposes formalising this procedure by
+ requiring requests for additions to the schema to be submitted as
+ completed proformas. This stipulation will greatly simplify
+ subsequent revisions of the schema.
+
+ There is one qualification to the above with respect to requests for
+ modifications to an existing object class. If a modification to an
+ object class merely involves additional, optional attributes, the
+ object class will be enhanced as requested. Systems are expected to
+ be resilient to such changes to the schema. However, requests to
+ modify an object class, such that the mandatory attribute types
+ require altering, will not be met. Instead, a new object class will
+ be created, and the original object class expired following the
+ scheme described in the next main section.
+
+ It is anticipated that most requests for modifications to the schema
+ will be met without any need for editorial intervention. Sometimes,
+ however, some discussion between the submitter of a request and the
+ schema's editor may be required. For example, the editor may have to
+ judge the relative merits of two very similar requests and, as a
+ result, one of the parties may not get quite what they want. In
+ cases such as this where the submitter of a request feels aggrieved
+ about an editorial decision, the requestor may appeal to a broader
+ community by explaining their views to the mailing list osi-
+ ds@cs.ucl.ac.uk. Heed will be paid to any consensus that emerges
+
+
+
+Barker & Kille [Page 4]
+
+RFC 1274 COSINE and Internet X.500 Schema November 1991
+
+
+ from discussions on the schema on this list. If it proves that this
+ list is used almost solely for discussions on schema issues, a
+ separate discussion list will be created.
+
+ To facilitate the production of the afore-mentioned proformas, tools
+ are included in Appendix B which will verify that a proforma has been
+ correctly formatted.
+
+ Completed proformas should be mailed to na-update@cs.ucl.ac.uk
+
+4.1. Object Class proforma
+
+ This section gives an example, completed proforma for a new object
+ class, alcoholic drink. A proforma for object class specified in BNF
+ is included in Appendix A.
+
+ Object Class: Alcoholic Drink
+
+ Description: The Alcoholic Drink object class is used to define
+ entries representing intoxicating beverages.
+
+ ASN1OCMacro: alcoholicDrink OBJECT-CLASS
+ SUBCLASS OF drink
+ MUST CONTAIN {
+ percentAlcohol}
+ MAY CONTAIN {
+ normalServing,
+ hue}
+
+ An object class description consists of three fields, separated by
+ blank lines. The keywords Object Class, Description and ASN1OCMacro,
+ and their suffixed colons, must be included exactly as above.
+
+ The Object Class field should be used for a textual description of
+ the object class. This will be at most three or four words.
+
+ The Description field should contain some explanatory text about the
+ intended use of the object class. This can run to a number of lines.
+
+ The ASN1OCMacro field should follow the definition of the object
+ class macro as specified in X.501. The above example shows the main
+ features. There are many more examples which can studied in the
+ section defining the Pilot Object Classes.
+
+4.2. Attribute type proforma
+
+ This section gives an example completed proforma for a new attribute
+ type, hue (one of the attribute types in the alcoholic drink object
+
+
+
+Barker & Kille [Page 5]
+
+RFC 1274 COSINE and Internet X.500 Schema November 1991
+
+
+ class).
+
+ Attribute Type: Hue
+
+ Description: The Hue attribute type specifies the hue of
+ an object. (Note that a description may run to several
+ lines.)
+
+ OCMust:
+
+ OCMay: alcoholicDrink
+
+ ASN1ATMacro:hue ATTRIBUTE
+ WITH ATTRIBUTE SYNTAX
+ caseIgnoreStringSyntax
+ (SIZE (1 .. ub-hue))
+
+ ub-hue INTEGER ::= 256
+
+ An attribute type description consists of five fields, separated by
+ blank lines. The keywords Attribute Type, Description, OCMust, OCMay
+ and ASN1ATMacro, and their suffixed colons, must be included exactly
+ as above.
+
+ The Attribute Type field should be used for a textual description of
+ the attribute type. This will be at most three or four words.
+
+ The Description field should contain some explanatory text about the
+ intended use of the attribute type. This can run to a number of
+ lines.
+
+ The OCMust field should contain a comma-separated list of object
+ classes for which this attribute is mandatory.
+
+ The OCMay field should contain a comma-separated list of object
+ classes for which this attribute is optional.
+
+ The ASN1ATMacro field should follow the definition of the attribute
+ macro as specified in X.501. The above example shows some of the
+ features. In particular, please note the format for specifying size
+ constraints.
+
+5. Integrating groups of object classes and attribute types.
+
+ This section describes two mechanisms that may be employed to allow
+ the integration of a substantial number of new object classes and
+ attribute types into the schema.
+
+
+
+
+Barker & Kille [Page 6]
+
+RFC 1274 COSINE and Internet X.500 Schema November 1991
+
+
+ The first mechanism allows for the transition of groups of related,
+ privately defined object classes and attribute types into the schema.
+ An example of when such a transition might be appropriate is when
+ some experimental use of the Directory is widely adopted within the
+ pilot. Such a transition will be made if the following conditions
+ hold:
+
+ - The definitions are well structured: i.e., they are not
+ scattered over a multiplicity of object identifier subtrees.
+
+ - The definitions are in use at a number of sites, and having
+ to adopt new object identifiers would be unnecessarily
+ disruptive.
+
+ A second mechanism allows for the allocation of an object subtree for
+ a group of new definitions. A pilotGroups object identifier has been
+ defined for this purpose. This method will be suitable for an
+ experiment requiring a considerable number of new object identifiers
+ to be defined. This approach allows for flexibility during
+ experimentation and should simplify both the management and the
+ coherence of the pilot's object identifiers.
+
+ In both cases, the object classes, attribute types and syntaxes
+ should be defined and described in an RFC. It is suggested that such
+ documents should follow the style used in this document for object
+ class and attribute type definitions. A reference will be given in
+ this schema to the document containing the definitions.
+
+6. Removing "old" object classes and attribute types.
+
+ It is also important that object classes and attribute types which
+ are no longer used or useful are removed from the schema. Some
+ object classes and attribute types initially defined as pilot
+ extensions may be included as standard definitions in future versions
+ of the standard. In such a case, it is important that there should
+ be a fairly rapid transition to the standard definitions. Another
+ possibility is that newer, more specific definitions obviate the
+ original definitions.
+
+ Two things are essential. First, it is crucial that "old"
+ definitions are retired as gracefully as possible. The intention to
+ retire a definition will be sent to the osi-ds@cs.ucl.ac.uk mail
+ list. In the absence of objections, the definition will be marked
+ for expiry with a given expiry date. The definition will remain in
+ the schema until the expiry date. Users of the schema should ensure
+ that they make the transition to new, alternative definitions in the
+ interim.
+
+
+
+
+Barker & Kille [Page 7]
+
+RFC 1274 COSINE and Internet X.500 Schema November 1991
+
+
+ Second, users of the schema must have the right to argue for the
+ retention of definitions which they regard as necessary, there being
+ no other definitions which closely meet their requirements. It is
+ clearly impossible to lay down hard and fast rules on this point, as
+ no two instances will ever be quite the same. It is intended that
+ the refereeing on these matters will be sympathetic! As for requests
+ for additions, an aggrieved user can "go to arbitration" by
+ initiating a discussion on the osi-ds@cs.ucl.ac.uk mail list.
+
+7. Object Identifiers
+
+ Some additional object identifiers are defined for this schema.
+ These are also reproduced in Appendix C.
+
+ data OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {ccitt 9}
+ pss OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {data 2342}
+ ucl OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {pss 19200300}

+
+ A number of generally useful object classes are defined in X.521, and
