Abstract
This document defines a reformulation of IP and two transport layer
protocols (TCP and UDP) as XML applications.
1. Introduction
1.1. Overview
This document describes the Binary Lexical Octet Ad-hoc Transport
(BLOAT): a reformulation of a widely-deployed network-layer protocol
(IP [RFC791]), and two associated transport layer protocols (TCP
[RFC793] and UDP [RFC768]) as XML [XML] applications. It also
describes methods for transporting BLOAT over Ethernet and IEEE 802
networks as well as encapsulating BLOAT in IP for gatewaying BLOAT
across the public Internet.
1.2. Motivation
The wild popularity of XML as a basis for application-level protocols
such as the Blocks Extensible Exchange Protocol [RFC3080], the Simple
Object Access Protocol [SOAP], and Jabber [JABBER] prompted
investigation into the possibility of extending the use of XML in the
protocol stack. Using XML at both the transport and network layer in
addition to the application layer would provide for an amazing amount
of power and flexibility while removing dependencies on proprietary
and hard-to-understand binary protocols. This protocol unification
would also allow applications to use a single XML parser for all
aspects of their operation, eliminating developer time spent figuring
out the intricacies of each new protocol, and moving the hard work of
Kennedy Informational [Page 1]
RFC 3252 Binary Lexical Octet Ad-hoc Transport 1 April 2002
parsing to the XML toolset. The use of XML also mitigates concerns
over "network vs. host" byte ordering which is at the root of many
network application bugs.
1.3. Relation to Existing Protocols
The reformulations specified in this RFC follow as closely as
possible the spirit of the RFCs on which they are based, and so MAY
contain elements or attributes that would not be needed in a pure
reworking (e.g. length attributes, which are implicit in XML.)
The layering of network and transport protocols are maintained in
this RFC despite the optimizations that could be made if the line
were somewhat blurred (i.e. merging TCP and IP into a single, larger
element in the DTD) in order to foster future use of this protocol as
a basis for reformulating other protocols (such as ICMP.)
Other than the encoding, the behavioral aspects of each of the
existing protocols remain unchanged. Routing, address spaces, TCP
congestion control, etc. behave as specified in the extant standards.
Adapting to new standards and experimental algorithm heuristics for
improving performance will become much easier once the move to BLOAT
has been completed.
1.4. Requirement Levels
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 BCP 14, RFC 2119
[RFC2119].
2. IPoXML
This protocol MUST be implemented to be compliant with this RFC.
IPoXML is the root protocol REQUIRED for effective use of TCPoXML
(section 3.) and higher-level application protocols.
The DTD for this document type can be found in section 7.1.
The routing of IPoXML can be easily implemented on hosts with an XML
parser, as the regular structure lends itself handily to parsing and
validation of the document/datagram and then processing the
destination address, TTL, and checksum before sending it on to its
next-hop.
The reformulation of IPv4 was chosen over IPv6 [RFC2460] due to the
wider deployment of IPv4 and the fact that implementing IPv6 as XML
would have exceeded the 1500 byte Ethernet MTU.
Kennedy Informational [Page 2]
RFC 3252 Binary Lexical Octet Ad-hoc Transport 1 April 2002
All BLOAT implementations MUST use - and specify - the UTF-8 encoding
of RFC 2279 [RFC2279]. All BLOAT document/datagrams MUST be well-
formed and include the XMLDecl.
2.1. IP Description
A number of items have changed (for the better) from the original IP
specification. Bit-masks, where present have been converted into
human-readable values. IP addresses are listed in their dotted-
decimal notation [RFC1123]. Length and checksum values are present
as decimal integers.
To calculate the length and checksum fields of the IP element, a
canonicalized form of the element MUST be used. The canonical form
SHALL have no whitespace (including newline characters) between
elements and only one space character between attributes. There
SHALL NOT be a space following the last attribute in an element.
An iterative method SHOULD be used to calculate checksums, as the
length field will vary based on the size of the checksum.
The payload element bears special attention. Due to the character
set restrictions of XML, the payload of IP datagrams (which MAY
contain arbitrary data) MUST be encoded for transport. This RFC
REQUIRES the contents of the payload to be encoded in the base-64
encoding of RFC 2045 [RFC2045], but removes the requirement that the
encoded output MUST be wrapped on 76-character lines.
Kennedy Informational [Page 3]
RFC 3252 Binary Lexical Octet Ad-hoc Transport 1 April 2002
2.2. Example Datagram
The following is an example IPoXML datagram with an empty payload:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE ip PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD BLOAT 1.0 IP//EN" "bloat.dtd">
<ip>
<header length="474">
<version value="4"/>
<tos precedence="Routine" delay="Normal" throughput="Normal"
relibility="Normal" reserved="0"/>
<total.length value="461"/>
<id value="1"/>
<flags reserved="0" df="dont" mf="last"/>
<offset value="0"/>
<ttl value="255"/>
<protocol value="6"/>
<checksum value="8707"/>
<source address="10.0.0.22"/>
<destination address="10.0.0.1"/>
<options>
<end copied="0" class="0" number="0"/>
</options>
<padding pad="0"/>
</header>
<payload>
</payload>
</ip>
3. TCPoXML
This protocol MUST be implemented to be compliant with this RFC. The
DTD for this document type can be found in section 7.2.
3.1. TCP Description
A number of items have changed from the original TCP specification.
Bit-masks, where present have been converted into human-readable
values. Length and checksum and port values are present as decimal
integers.
To calculate the length and checksum fields of the TCP element, a
canonicalized form of the element MUST be used as in section 2.1.
An iterative method SHOULD be used to calculate checksums as in
section 2.1.
The payload element MUST be encoded as in section 2.1.
Kennedy Informational [Page 4]
RFC 3252 Binary Lexical Octet Ad-hoc Transport 1 April 2002
The TCP offset element was expanded to a maximum of 255 from 16 to
allow for the increased size of the header in XML.
TCPoXML datagrams encapsulated by IPoXML MAY omit the <?xml?> header
as well as the <!DOCTYPE> declaration.
3.2. Example Datagram
The following is an example TCPoXML datagram with an empty payload:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE tcp PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD BLOAT 1.0 TCP//EN" "bloat.dtd">
<tcp>
<tcp.header>
<src port="31415"/>
<dest port="42424"/>
<sequence number="322622954"/>
<acknowledgement number="689715995"/>
<offset number=""/>
<reserved value="0"/>
<control syn="1" ack="1"/>
<window size="1"/>
<urgent pointer="0"/>
<checksum value="2988"/>
<tcp.options>
<tcp.end kind="0"/>
</tcp.options>
<padding pad="0"/>
</tcp.header>
<payload>
</payload>
</tcp>
4. UDPoXML
This protocol MUST be implemented to be compliant with this RFC. The
DTD for this document type can be found in section 7.3.
4.1. UDP Description
A number of items have changed from the original UDP specification.
Bit-masks, where present have been converted into human-readable
values. Length and checksum and port values are present as decimal
integers.
Kennedy Informational [Page 5]
RFC 3252 Binary Lexical Octet Ad-hoc Transport 1 April 2002
To calculate the length and checksum fields of the UDP element, a
canonicalized form of the element MUST be used as in section 2.1. An
iterative method SHOULD be used to calculate checksums as in section
2.1.
The payload element MUST be encoded as in section 2.1.
UDPoXML datagrams encapsulated by IPoXML MAY omit the <?xml?> header
as well as the <!DOCTYPE> declaration.
4.2. Example Datagram
The following is an example UDPoXML datagram with an empty payload:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE udp PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD BLOAT 1.0 UDP//EN" "bloat.dtd">
<udp>
<udp.header>
<src port="31415"/>
<dest port="42424"/>
<udp.length value="143"/>
<checksum value="2988"/>
</udp.header>
<payload>
</payload>
</udp>
5. Network Transport
This document provides for the transmission of BLOAT datagrams over
two common families of physical layer transport. Future RFCs will
address additional transports as routing vendors catch up to the
specification, and we begin to see BLOAT routed across the Internet
backbone.
5.1. Ethernet
BLOAT is encapsulated in Ethernet datagrams as in [RFC894] with the
exception that the type field of the Ethernet frame MUST contain the
value 0xBEEF. The first 5 octets of the Ethernet frame payload will
be 0x3c 3f 78 6d 6c ("<?xml".)
5.2. IEEE 802
BLOAT is encapsulated in IEEE 802 Networks as in [RFC1042] except
that the protocol type code for IPoXML is 0xBEEF.
Kennedy Informational [Page 6]
RFC 3252 Binary Lexical Octet Ad-hoc Transport 1 April 2002
6. Gatewaying over IP
In order to facilitate the gradual introduction of BLOAT into the
public Internet, BLOAT MAY be encapsulated in IP as in [RFC2003] to
gateway between networks that run BLOAT natively on their LANs.
7. DTDs
The Transport DTDs (7.2. and 7.3.) build on the definitions in the
Network DTD (7.1.)
The DTDs are referenced by their PubidLiteral and SystemLiteral (from
[XML]) although it is understood that most IPoXML implementations
will not need to pull down the DTD, as it will normally be embedded
in the implementation, and presents something of a catch-22 if you
need to load part of your network protocol over the network.

8. Security Considerations
XML, as a subset of SGML, has the same security considerations as
specified in SGML Media Types [RFC1874]. Security considerations
that apply to IP, TCP and UDP also likely apply to BLOAT as it does
not attempt to correct for issues not related to message format.
