Introduction The principal output of any domain name provisioning system is a DNS zone file, which contains the delegation record(s) for names registered within a zone (such as a top-level domain). These records typically include one or more NS records, but may also include DS records for domains secured with DNSSEC ([RFC9364]), and DNAME records for IDN variants ([RFC6927]). A and/or AAAA records may also be published for nameservers where required by DNS resolvers to avoid an infinite loop. Typically, the Time-To-Live value (TTL, see Section 5 of [RFC9499]) of these records is determined by the registry operator. However, in some circumstances it may be desirable to allow the sponsoring client of a domain name to change the TTL values used for that domain's delegation: for example, to reduce the amount of time required to complete a change of DNS servers, DNSSEC deployment or key rollover, or to allow for fast rollback of such changes. This document describes an EPP extension to the domain name and host object mappings (described in [RFC5731] and [RFC5732], respectively) which allows the sponsor of a domain name or host object to change the TTL values of the resource record(s) associated with that object. It also describes how EPP servers should handle TTLs specified by EPP clients and how both parties co-ordinate to manage TTL values in response to changes in operational or security requirements. 1.1. Conventions used in this document The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here. Brown Expires 26 December 2024 [Page 3] Internet-Draft TTL mapping for EPP June 2024 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 required features of this protocol. A protocol client that is authorized to manage an existing object is described as a "sponsoring" client throughout this document. XML is case sensitive. Unless stated otherwise, XML specifications and examples provided in this document MUST be interpreted in the character case presented in order to develop a conforming implementation. EPP uses XML namespaces to provide an extensible object management framework and to identify schemas required for XML instance parsing and validation. These namespaces and schema definitions are used to identify both the base protocol schema and the schemas for managed objects. The XML namespace prefixes used in examples (such as the string ttl in ttl:create) are solely for illustrative purposes. A conforming implementation MUST NOT require the use of these or any other specific namespace prefixes. In accordance with Section 3.2.2.1 of XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes [XSD-DATATYPES], the allowable lexical representations for the xs:boolean datatype are the strings "0" and "false" for the concept 'false' and the strings "1" and "true" for the concept 'true'. Implementations MUST support both styles of lexical representation. 1.2. Extension elements This extension adds additional elements to the EPP domain and host mappings. 1.2.1. The element The element is used to define TTL values for the DNS resource records associated with domain and host objects. elements MAY have the following attributes, depending on whether it appears in a command or response frame: 1. "for", which is REQUIRED in both commands and responses, and which specifies the DNS record type to which the TTL value pertains. This attribute MUST have one of the following values: "NS", "DS", "DNAME", "A", "AAAA" or "custom"; Brown Expires 26 December 2024 [Page 4] Internet-Draft TTL mapping for EPP June 2024 2. If the value of the "for" attribute is "custom", then the element MUST also have a "custom" attribute containing a DNS record type conforming with the regular expression in Section 3.1 of [RFC6895]. Additionally, the record type MUST be registered with IANA. 3. "min", which MUST NOT be present in command frames but MAY be present in response frames (see Section 2.1.1), and which is used by the server to indicate the lowest value that may be set; 4. "default", which MUST NOT be present in command frames but MAY be present in response frames (see Section 2.1.1), and which is used by the server to indicate the default value; 5. "max", which MUST NOT be present in command frames but MAY be present in response frames (see Section 2.1.1), and which is used by the server to indicate the highest value that may be set; When present, the value of the "min" attribute MUST be lower than the value of the "max" attribute. The "default" attribute MUST be between the "min" and "max" values, inclusively. 1.2.1.1. Element content The XML schema found in Section 8 of this document restricts the content of elements to be either: 1. a non-negative integer, indicating the value of the TTL in seconds, or 2. empty, in which case the server's default TTL for the given record type is to be applied. 1.2.1.2. Supported DNS record types To facilitate forward compatibility with future changes to the DNS protocol, this document does not enumerate or restrict the DNS record types that can be included in the "custom" attribute of the element. The regular expression which is used to validate the values of the "custom" attribute is based on the expression found in Section 1.3 of [RFC6895], and is intended to match both existing and future RRTYPE mnemonics. This eliminates the need to update this document in the event that new DNS records that exist above a zone cut (Section 7 of [RFC9499]) is specified. Brown Expires 26 December 2024 [Page 5] Internet-Draft TTL mapping for EPP June 2024 Nevertheless, EPP servers which implement this extension MUST restrict the DNS record types that are accepted in and commands, and included in responses, allowing only those types that are actually published in the DNS for domain and host objects. A server that receives a or command that attempts to set TTL values for inapplicable DNS record types MUST respond with a 2004 "Parameter value range" error. As an illustrative example, a server MAY allow clients to specify TTL values for the following record types for domain objects: 1. NS; 2. DS (if the server also implements [RFC5910]); 3. DNAME (if the registry implements IDN variants using DNAME records). 1.2.1.2.1. Glue records Glue records are described in Section 7 of [RFC9499]. Servers which implement host objects ([RFC5732]) MAY allow clients to specify TTL values for A and AAAA records for host objects. A server supporting host objects which receives a command that attempts to set TTL values for A and AAAA records on a domain object MUST respond with a 2004 "Parameter value range" error. EPP servers which use the "host attribute" model (described in Section 1.1 of [RFC5731]) MAY allow clients to specify TTL values for A and AAAA records for domain objects. 1.2.1.3. Examples 1.2.1.3.1. Explicit TTL value ( or command) 3600 1.2.1.3.2. Explicit TTL value ( policy mode) 3600 Brown Expires 26 December 2024 [Page 6] Internet-Draft TTL mapping for EPP June 2024 1.2.1.3.3. Empty value indicating default TTL ( or command, default mode) 1.2.1.3.4. Custom record type ( or command, default mode) 3600 1.3. The element The element is used by clients to request that the server include additional information in responses for domain and host objects. It has a single OPTIONAL policy attribute, which takes a boolean value with a default value of false. The semantics of this element are described in Section 2.1.1. 1.3.1. Example 2. EPP command mapping 2.1. EPP query commands 2.1.1. EPP command This extension defines an additional element for EPP commands and responses for domain and host objects. The EPP command is extended to support two different modes: 1. The Default Mode (Section 2.1.1.1), which requests the inclusion of all non-default TTL values in the response; and 2. The Policy Mode (Section 2.1.1.2), which requests the inclusion of TTL information for all supported DNS record types in the response, along with the minimum, default and maximum values for those records. Brown Expires 26 December 2024 [Page 7] Internet-Draft TTL mapping for EPP June 2024 2.1.1.1. Default Mode If a server receives an command for a domain or host object which includes a element with a "policy" attribute that is "0" or "false", then the EPP response MUST contain records for all DNS record types that have non-default TTL values. These elements MUST NOT have the "min", "default" and "max" attributes.

These elements MUST have the "min", "default" and "max" attributes.

EPP transform commands 2.2.1. EPP command This extension defines an additional element for EPP commands for domain and host objects. Brown Expires 26 December 2024 [Page 14] Internet-Draft TTL mapping for EPP June 2024 The element of the command frame MAY contain an element which MAY contain a element.

Brown Expires 26 December 2024 [Page 17] Internet-Draft TTL mapping for EPP June 2024 3. Server processing of TTL values 3.1. Permitted record types Servers MAY restrict the supported DNS record types in accordance with their own policy. For example, a server MAY allow clients to specify TTL values for DS records only. A server which receives a or command which includes a restricted record type MUST respond with a 2306 "Parameter value policy" error. Clients can discover the DNS record types for which an EPP server permits TTL values to be changed by performing a "Policy Mode" command, as outlined in Section 2.1.1.2. 3.2. Use of TTL values in delegation records EPP servers which implement this extension SHOULD use the values provided by EPP clients for the TTL values records published in the DNS for domain and (if supported) host objects. EPP servers that use the "host attribute" model SHOULD use any A and/ or AAAA TTL values specified for the domain object when publishing NS, A and AAAA records derived from host attributes. 4. Out-of-band changes to TTL values EPP server operators MAY, in order to address operational or security issues, make changes to TTL values out-of-band (that is, not in response to an command received from the sponsoring client). Server operators MAY also implement automatic reset of TTL values, so that they revert to the default value a certain amount of time after an update has been made. If a TTL value is changed out-of-band, EPP server operators MAY notify the sponsoring client using the EPP Change Poll extension ([RFC8590]), which provides a generalised method for EPP servers to notify clients of changes to objects under their sponsorship. 5. Operational considerations Brown Expires 26 December 2024 [Page 18] Internet-Draft TTL mapping for EPP June 2024 5.1. Operational impact of TTL values Registry operators must consider the balance between registrants' desire for changes to domains to be visible in the DNS quickly, and the increased DNS query traffic that short TTLs can bring. Historically, registry operators have used a global TTL value for all delegations within their zones, which could then be tuned to an optimum value. Registry operators SHOULD implement limits on the maximum and minimum accepted TTL values that are narrower than the values permitted in the XML schema in the Formal syntax (which were chosen to allow any TTL permitted in DNS records), in order to prevent scenarios where an excessively high or low TTL causes operational issues on either side of the zone cut. Section 4 describes how server operators MAY unilaterally change TTL values in order to address operational or security issues, or only permit changes for limited time periods (after which TTLs revert to the default). 5.2. When TTL values should be changed A common operational mistake is changing of DNS record TTLs during or after the planned change to the records themselves. This arises due to a misunderstanding about how TTLs work. Implementations of this specification SHOULD ensure that the user understands that changes to a TTL are only effective in shortening transition periods if implemented a period of time — at least equal to the current TTL — _before_ the planned change. The latency between receipt of the command and the actual publication of the changes in the DNS should also be taken into consideration in this calculation. 6. Security considerations Some malicious actors use a technique called "fast flux DNS" ([SAC-025]) to rapidly change the DNS configuration for a zone in order to evade takedown and law enforcement activity. Registry operators should take this into consideration when setting the lower limit on TTL values, since a short TTL on delegations may enhance the effectiveness of fast flux techniques on evasion.

Brown Expires 26 December 2024 [Page 25] Internet-Draft TTL mapping for EPP June 2024 10.8. Changes from 06 to 07 1. Minor wording changes and nits reported by JG. 10.9. Changes from 05 to 06 1. Changed how commands work so that a element is required in order for elements to be included in the response. Thanks to JG for this feedback. 10.10. Changes from 04 to 05 1. removed the erroneous required="true" attribute from the min, default and max attributes of the responseTTLType type (thanks JG). 2. fixed the reference to RFC 6895 (thanks HS). 10.11. Changes from 04 to 05 1. Add the the Verisign EPP SDK to Section 9. 2. Add the element and document how it affects server responses. 3. Updated examples to exercise more of the schema. 4. Minor schema issue fixed. 10.12. Changes from 03 to 04 1. Changed the for attribute to be an enumeration and added the custom attribute. 2. Added the min, default and max attributes. 3. Apply feedback from Jim Gould. 10.13. Changes from 02 to 03 1. Rolled back the "straw man" syntax from 02. ttl:ttl now has a for attribute which can be any DNS record type. Section 1.2.1.2 describes how the set of supported record types may be limited. 2. Removed the global/explicit models and just use the explicit model. Brown Expires 26 December 2024 [Page 26] Internet-Draft TTL mapping for EPP June 2024 3. Removed the cascading effect where a TTL set on a domain affects subordinate hosts. 10.14. Changes from 01 to 02 1. Renamed the ttl:seconds XSD type to ttl:container, and the ttl:nonNegativeInteger type to ttl:ttlType, to permit multiple TTL values. 2. Converted XML instances from artwork to source code. 10.15. Changes from 00 to 01 1. Incorporate feedback from Jim Gould. 2. Add wording to describe how TTL values are jointly managed by both clients and servers. 3. Fix minimum/maximum TTL value and schema namespace (thanks Patrick Mevzek). 4. Moved text on how the server should handle impermissible TTL values from the top of Section 4 to Sections 3.2.1 and 3.2.2 (thanks Rick Wilhelm). 5. Namespace changed from urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:ttl-1.0 to urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:epp:ttl-1.0. 6. Added discussion on EPP servers which use the host attribute model in Section 3.2 (thanks Hugo Salgado). 7. Added a Change Log (Section 10). 11.
