   17    This document describes an extension to Extensible Provisioning         
   18    Protocol (EPP) object mappings that is designed to support assigning    
   19    an organization to any existing object (domain, host, contact) as       
   20    well as any future objects.

  111 1.  Introduction                                                           
  112                                                                            
  113    There are many entities, such as registrars, resellers, DNS service     
  114    operators, and privacy proxies, involved in the domain registration     
  115    business.  These kinds of entities are supported in the Extensible      
  116    Provisioning Protocol (EPP) by the "organization" entities in           
  117    [RFC8543].  This document provides a way to associate any EPP object    
  118    such as domain names in [RFC5731], hosts in [RFC5732], and contacts     
  119    in [RFC5733] to "organization" entities in [RFC8543].  The examples     
  120    provided in this document are used for the domain object for            
  121    illustration purposes.  The host and contact object could be extended   
  122    in the same way as the domain object.                                   
  123                                                                            
  124    Organization object identifiers, defined in [RFC8543], MUST be known    
  125    to the server before the organization object can be associated with     
  126    the EPP object.                                                         
  127

  140    In examples, "C:" represents lines sent by a protocol client, and       
  141    "S:" represents lines returned by a protocol server.  Indentation and   
  142    white space in examples are provided only to illustrate element         
  143    relationships and are not a required feature of this specification.     
  144                                                                            
  145    XML is case sensitive.  Unless stated otherwise, XML specifications     
  146    and examples provided in this document MUST be interpreted in the       
  147    character case presented.

  149    The XML namespace prefix "orgext" is used for the namespace             
  150    "urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:epp:orgext-1.0", but implementations MUST NOT   
  151    depend on it; instead, they should employ a proper namespace-aware      
  152    XML parser and serializer to interpret and output the XML documents.    
  153

  156    This extension adds additional elements to EPP object mappings such     
  157    as the EPP domain name mapping [RFC5731].  Only the new elements are    
  158    described here.

  163 RFC 8544           Organization Extension for the EPP         April 2019   
  164                                                                            
  165                                                                            
  166 3.1.  Organization Identifier                                              
  167                                                                            
  168    The organization identifier provides the ID of an organization.  Its    
  169    corresponding element is <orgext:id>, which refers to the <org:id>      
  170    element defined in [RFC8543].  All organization objects are             
  171    identified by a server-unique identifier.  A "role" attribute is used   
  172    to represent the relationship that the organization has to the EPP      
  173    object.  Any given object MUST have at most one associated              
  174    organization ID for any given role value.                               
  175                                                                            
  176 4.  EPP Command Mapping                                                    
  177                                                                            
  178    A detailed description of the EPP syntax and semantics can be found     
  179    in the EPP core protocol specification [RFC5730].  The command          
  180    mappings described here are specifically for assigning organizations    
  181    to EPP objects.                                                         
  182                                                                            
  183 4.1.  EPP Query Commands                                                   
  184                                                                            
  185    EPP provides three commands to retrieve EPP object information:         
  186    <check> to determine if an object can be provisioned within a           
  187    repository, <info> to retrieve detailed information associated with     
  188    an object, and <transfer> to retrieve object transfer status            
  189    information.                                                            
  190                                                                            
  191 4.1.1.  EPP <check> Command                                                
  192                                                                            
  193    This extension does not add any elements to the EPP <check> command     
  194    or <check> response described in the EPP object mapping.                
  195                                                                            
  196 4.1.2.  EPP <info> Command                                                 
  197                                                                            
  198    This extension does not add any elements to the EPP <info> command      
  199    described in the EPP object mapping.  However, additional elements      
  200    are defined for the <info> response in the EPP object mapping.          
  201                                                                            
  202    When an <info> command has been processed successfully, the EPP         
  203    <resData> element MUST contain child elements as described in the EPP   
  204    object extensions.  In addition, the EPP <extension> element SHOULD     
  205    contain a child <orgext:infData> element.  This element is returned     
  206    if the object has data that is associated with this extension and       
  207    that is based on server policy.  This element or its ancestor element   
  208                                                                            
  209

  225    o  Zero or more <orgext:id> elements are allowed that contain the       
  226       identifier of the organization, as defined in Section 3.1.  The      
  227       "role" attribute is used to represent the relationship that the      
  228       organization has to the object.  See Section 7.3 of [RFC8543] for    
  229       a list of values.

  385                                                                            
  386 4.1.3.  EPP <transfer> Query Command                                       
  387                                                                            
  388    This extension does not add any elements to the EPP <transfer> query    
  389    command or <transfer> query response described in the EPP object        
  390    mapping.                                                                
  391                                                                            
  392 4.2.  EPP Transform Commands                                               
  393                                                                            
  394    EPP provides five commands to transform EPP objects: <create> to        
  395    create an instance of an object, <delete> to delete an instance of an   
  396    object, <renew> to extend the validity period of an object,             
  397    <transfer> to manage the object sponsorship changes, and <update> to    
  398    change information associated with an object.                           
  399                                                                            
  400 4.2.1.  EPP <create> Command                                               
  401                                                                            
  402    This extension defines additional elements for the EPP <create>         
  403    command described in the EPP object extensions.  No additional          
  404    elements are defined for the EPP <create> response.                     
  405                                                                            
  406    The EPP <create> command provides a transform operation that allows a   
  407    client to create an object.  In addition to the EPP command elements    
  408    described in the EPP object extensions, the command MUST contain an     
  409    <extension> element, and the <extension> element MUST contain a child   
  410    <orgext:create> element.  This element is used if the client wants to   
  411    associate data defined in this extension to the object.  This element   
  412    or its ancestor element MUST identify the extension namespace           
  413    "urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:epp:orgext-1.0".  The <orgext:create> element   
  414    contains the following child elements:                                  
  415                                                                            
  416    o  One or more <orgext:id> elements that contain the identifier of      
  417       the organization, as defined in Section 3.1.  The "role" attribute   
  418       is used to represent the relationship that the organization has to   
  419       the object.  See Section 7.3 of [RFC8543] for a list of values.      
  420

  553    This extension does not add any elements to the EPP <transfer>          
  554    command or <transfer> response described in the EPP object mapping,     
  555    but after a successful transfer of an object with an assigned           
  556    organization, the handling of the assigned organization is dependent    
  557    on the organization roles and server policy.                            
  558

  560                                                                            
  561    This extension defines additional elements for the EPP <update>         
  562    command described in the EPP domain mapping [RFC5731], host mapping     
  563    [RFC5732], and contact mapping [RFC5733].  No additional elements are   
  564    defined for the EPP <update> response.                                  
  565                                                                            
  566    The EPP <update> command provides a transform operation that allows a   
  567    client to modify the attributes of an object.  In addition to the EPP   
  568    <update> command elements, the command MUST contain an <extension>      
  569    element, and the <extension> element MUST contain a child               
  570    <orgext:update> element.  This element is used if the client wants to   
  571    update the object with data defined in this extension.  This element    
  572    or its ancestor element MUST identify the extension namespace           
  573    "urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:epp:orgext-1.0".  The <orgext:update> element   
  574    contains the following child elements:                                  
  575                                                                            
  576    o  An OPTIONAL <orgext:add> element that contains one or more           
  577       <orgext:id> elements, as defined in Section 3.1, that add            
  578       nonexistent organization roles to the object.  The <orgext:id>       
  579       element MUST have a non-empty organization identifier value.  The    
  580       server SHOULD validate that the <orgext:id> element role does not    
  581       exist.                                                               
  582                                                                            
  583    o  An OPTIONAL <orgext:rem> element that contains one or more           
  584       <orgext:id> elements, as defined in Section 3.1, that remove         
  585       organization roles from the object.  The <orgext:id> element MAY     
  586       have an empty organization identifier value.  The server SHOULD      
  587       validate the existence of the <orgext:id> element role and the       
  588       organization identifier if provided.                                 
  589                                                                            
  590    o  An OPTIONAL <orgext:chg> element that contains one or more           
  591       <orgext:id> elements, as defined in Section 3.1, that change         
  592       organization role identifiers for the object.  The existing          
  593       organization identifier value will be replaced for the defined       
  594       role.  The server SHOULD validate the existence of the <orgext:id>   
  595       element role.                                                        
  596                                                                            
  597    At least one <orgext:add>, <orgext:rem>, or <orgext:chg> element MUST   
  598    be provided.                                                            
  599

  768 RFC 8544           Organization Extension for the EPP         April 2019   
  769                                                                            
  770                                                                            
  771    When an extended <update> command has been processed successfully,      
  772    the EPP response is as described in the EPP object extension.           
  773                                                                            
  774    An EPP error response MUST be returned if an <update> command cannot    
  775    be processed for any reason.  An attempt to add one organization ID     
  776    or multiple organization IDs with a particular role value when at       
  777    least one of them already exists does not change the object at all.     
  778    A server SHOULD notify clients that object relationships exist by       
  779    sending a 2305 error response code.  An attempt to remove an            
  780    organization ID or multiple organization IDs with a particular role     
  781    value when at least one of them does not exist does not change the      
  782    object at all.  A server SHOULD notify clients that object              
  783    relationships do not exist by sending a 2305 error response code.  An   
  784    attempt to change an organization ID or multiple organization IDs       
  785    with a particular role value when at least one of them does not exist   
  786    does not change the object at all.  A server SHOULD notify clients      
  787    that object relationships do not exist by sending a 2305 error          
  788    response code.  Response format with error value elements is defined    
  789    in Section 2.6 of [RFC5730].                                            
  790                                                                            
  791 5.  Formal Syntax

  793    An EPP object mapping is specified in XML Schema notation.  The         
  794    formal syntax presented here is a complete schema representation of     
  795    the object mapping suitable for automated validation of EPP XML         
  796    instances.  The BEGIN and END tags are not part of the schema; they     
  797    are used to note the beginning and ending of the schema for URI         
  798    registration purposes.

  938    EPP is represented in XML, which provides native support for encoding   
  939    information using the Unicode character set [UNICODE] and its more      
  940    compact representations, including UTF-8.  Conformant XML processors    
  941    recognize both UTF-8 [RFC3629] and UTF-16 [RFC2781].  Though XML        
  942    includes provisions to identify and use other character encodings       
  943    through use of an "encoding" attribute in an <?xml?> declaration, use   
  944    of UTF-8 is RECOMMENDED.
