CCNx Messages in TLV Format

We use 16-bit Type and 16-bit Length fields to encode TLV based packets. This provides 64K different possible types and value field lengths of up to 64KiB. With 64K possible types, there should be sufficient space for basic protocol types, while also allowing ample room for experimentation, application use, and growth. Specifically, the TLV types in the range 0x1000 - 0x1FFF are reserved for experimental use. These type values are reserved in all TLV container contexts. In the event that more space is needed, either for types or for length, a new version of the protocol would be needed. See for more information about organization specific TLVs. Abbrev Name Description T_ORG Vendor Specific Information Information specific to a vendor implementation (see below). n/a Experimental Experimental use.

The Length field contains the length of the Value field in octets. It does not include the length of the Type and Length fields. They length MAY be zero. TLV structures are nestable, allowing the Value field of one TLV structure to contain additional TLV structures. The enclosing TLV structure is called the container of the enclosed TLV. Type values are context-dependent. Within a TLV container, one may re-use previous type values for new context-dependent purposes.

Each packet includes the 8 byte fixed header described below, followed by a set of TLV fields. These fields are optional hop-by-hop headers and the Packet Payload.

The packet payload is a TLV encoding of the CCNx message, followed by optional Validation TLVs.

This document describes the Version "1" TLV encoding. After discarding the fixed and hop-by-hop headers the remaining PacketPayload should be a valid protocol message. Therefore, the PacketPayload always begins with a 4 byte TLV defining the protocol message (whether it is an Interest, Content Object, or other message type) and its total length. The embedding of a self-sufficient protocol data unit inside the fixed and hop-by-hop headers allows a network stack to discard the headers and operate only on the embedded message. The range of bytes protected by the Validation includes the CCNx Message and the ValidationAlgorithm. The ContentObjectHash begins with the CCNx Message and ends at the tail of the packet.

CCNx messages begin with an 8 byte fixed header (non-TLV format). The HeaderLength field represents the combined length of the Fixed and Hop-by-hop headers. The PacketLength field represents the entire Packet length. A specific PacketType may assign meaning to the "PacketType specific fields". The PacketPayload of a CCNx packet is the protocol message itself. The Content Object Hash is computed over the PacketPayload only, excluding the fixed and hop-by-hop headers as those might change from hop to hop. Signed information or Similarity Hashes should not include any of the fixed or hop-by-hop headers. The PacketPayload should be self-sufficient in the event that the fixed and hop-by-hop headers are removed.

Version: defines the version of the packet. HeaderLength: The length of the fixed header (8 bytes) and hop-by-hop headers. The minimum value MUST be "8". PacketType: describes forwarder actions to take on the packet. PacketLength: Total octets of packet including all headers (fixed header plus hop-by-hop headers) and protocol message. PacketType Specific Fields: specific PacketTypes define the use of these bits. The PacketType field indicates how the forwarder should process the packet. A Request Packet (Interest) has PacketType PT_INTEREST, a Response (Content Object) has PacketType PT_CONTENT, and an InterestReturn Packet has PacketType PT_RETURN. HeaderLength is the number of octets from the start of the packet (Version) to the end of the hop-by-hop headers. PacketLength is the number of octets from the start of the packet to the end of the packet. The PacketType specific fields are reserved bits whose use depends on the PacketType. They are used for network-level signaling.

If the PacketType in the Fixed Header is PT_INTEREST, it indicates that the PacketPayload should be processed as an Interest message. For this type of packet, the Fixed Header includes a field for a HopLimit as well as Reserved and Flags fields. The Reserved field MUST be set to 0 in an Interest - this field will be set to a return code in the case of an Interest Return. There are currently no Flags defined, so this field MUST be set to 0.

For an Interest message, the HopLimit is a counter that is decremented with each hop. It limits the distance an Interest may travel on the network. The node originating the Interest MAY put in any value - up to the maximum of 255. Each node that receives an Interest with a HopLimit decrements the value upon reception. If the value is 0 after the decrement, the Interest MUST NOT be forwarded off the node. It is an error to receive an Interest with a 0 hop-limit from a remote node.

If the PacketType in the Fixed Header is PT_CONTENT, it indicates that the PacketPayload should be processed as a Content Object message. A Content Object defines a Flags field, however there are currently no flags defined, so the Flags field must be set to 0.

If the PacketType in the Fixed Header is PT_RETURN, it indicates that the PacketPayload should be processed as a returned Interest message. The only difference between this InterestReturn message and the original Interest is that the PacketType is changed to PT_RETURN and a ReturnCode is is put into the Reserved octet. All other fields are unchanged. The purpose of this encoding is to prevent packet length changes so no additional bytes are needed to return an Interest to the previous hop. See for a protocol description of this packet type.

This is the original Interest's HopLimit, as received. It is the value before being decremented at the current node (i.e. the received value).

These are the original Flags as set in the Interest.

The numeric value assigned to the return types is defined below. This value is set by the node creating the Interest Return. A return code of "0" MUST NOT be used, as it indicates that the returning system did not modify the Return Code field. Type Return Type T_RETURN_NO_ROUTE No Route T_RETURN_LIMIT_EXCEEDED Hop Limit Exceeded T_RETURN_NO_RESOURCES No Resources T_RETURN_PATH_ERROR Path Error T_RETURN_PROHIBITED Prohibited T_RETURN_CONGESTED Congested T_RETURN_MTU_TOO_LARGE MTU too large T_RETURN_UNSUPPORTED_HASH_RESTRICTION Unsupported ContentObjectHashRestriction T_RETURN_MALFORMED_INTEREST Malformed Interest

This section defines global formats that may be nested within other TLVs.

The pad type may be used by protocols that prefer word-aligned data. The size of the word may be defined by the protocol. Padding 4-byte words, for example, would use a 1-byte, 2-byte, and 3-byte Length. Padding 8-byte words would use a (0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7)-byte Length. A pad MAY be inserted after any TLV in the CCNx Message or in the Validation Dependent Data In the remainder of this document, we will not show optional pad TLVs.

Organization specific TLVs MUST use the T_ORG type. The Length field is the length of the organization specific information plus 3. The Value begins with the 3 byte organization number derived from the last three digits of the IANA Private Enterprise Numbers, followed by the organization specific information.

Hash values are used in several fields throughout a packet. This TLV encoding is commonly embedded inside those fields to specify the specific hash function used and it's value. Note that the reserved TLV types are also reserved here for user-defined experimental functions. The LENGTH field of the hash value MUST be less than or equal to the hash function length. If the LENGTH is less than the full length, it is taken as the left LENGTH bytes of the hash function output. Only the specified truncations are allowed. This nested format is used because it allows binary comparison of hash values for certain fields without a router needing to understand a new hash function. For example, the KeyIdRestriction is bit-wise compared between an Interest's KeyIdRestriction field and a ContentObject's KeyId field. This format means the outer field values do not change with differing hash functions so a router can still identify those fields and do a binary comparison of the hash TLV without need to understand the specific hash used. An alternative approach, such as using T_KEYID_SHA512-256, would require each router keep an up-to-date parser and supporting user-defined hash functions here would explode the parsing state-space. A CCN entity MUST support the hash type T_SHA-256. An entity MAY support the remaining hash types. Abbrev Lengths (octets) T_SHA-256 32 T_SHA-512 64, 32 n/a Experimental TLV types

A Link is the tuple: {CCNx Name, KeyId, ContentObjectHash}. It is a general encoding that is used in both the payload of a Content Object with PayloadType = "Link" and in the KeyName field in a KeyLocator.

Hop-by-hop TLV headers are unordered and meaning MUST NOT be attached to their ordering. Three hop-by-hop headers are described in this document: Abbrev Name Description T_INTLIFE Interest Lifetime The time an Interest should stay pending at an intermediate node. T_CACHETIME Recommended Cache Time The Recommended Cache Time for Content Objects. T_MSGHASH Message Hash The hash of the CCNx Message to end of packet using format. Additional hop-by-hop headers are defined in higher level specifications such as the fragmentation specification.

The Interest Lifetime is the time that an Interest should stay pending at an intermediate node. It is expressed in milliseconds as an unsigned, network byte order integer. A value of 0 (encoded as 1 byte %x00) indicates the Interest does not elicit a Content Object response. It should still be forwarded, but no reply is expected.

The Recommended Cache Time (RCT) is a measure of the useful lifetime of a Content Object as assigned by a content producer or upstream node. It serves as a guideline to the Content Store cache in determining how long to keep the Content Object. It is a recommendation only and may be ignored by the cache. This is in contrast to the ExpiryTime (described in )which takes precedence over the RCT and must be obeyed. Because the Recommended Cache Time is an optional hop-by-hop header and not a part of the signed message, a content producer may re-issue a previously signed Content Object with an updated RCT without needing to re-sign the message. There is little ill effect from an attacker changing the RCT as the RCT serves as a guideline only. The Recommended Cache Time (a millisecond timestamp) is a network byte ordered unsigned integer of the number of milliseconds since the epoch in UTC of when the payload expires. It is a 64-bit field.

Within a trusted domain, an operator may calculate the message hash at a border device and insert that value into the hop-by-hop headers of a message. An egress device should remove the value. This permits intermediate devices within that trusted domain to match against a ContentObjectHashRestriction without calculating it at every hop. The message hash is a cryptographic hash from the start of the CCNx Message to the end of the packet. It is used to match against the ContentObjectHashRestriction. The Message Hash may be of longer length than an Interest's restriction, in which case the device should use the left bytes of the Message Hash to check against the Interest's value. The Message Hash may only carry one hash type and there may only be one Message Hash header. The Message Hash header is unprotected, so this header is only of practical use within a trusted domain, such as an operator's autonomous system.

The top-level TLV types listed below exist at the outermost level of a CCNx protocol message. Abbrev Name Description T_INTEREST Interest An Interest MessageType. T_OBJECT Content Object A Content Object MessageType T_VALIDATION_ALG Validation Algorithm The method of message verification such as Message Integrity Check (MIC), a Message Authentication Code (MAC), or a cryptographic signature. T_VALIDATION_PAYLOAD Validation Payload The validation output, such as the CRC32C code or the RSA signature.

This is the format for the CCNx protocol message itself. The CCNx message is the portion of the packet between the hop-by-hop headers and the Validation TLVs. The figure below is an expansion of the "CCNx Message TLV" depicted in the beginning of . The CCNx message begins with MessageType and runs through the optional Payload. The same general format is used for both Interest and Content Object messages which are differentiated by the MessageType field. The first enclosed TLV of a CCNx Message is always the Name TLV. This is followed by an optional Message TLVs and an optional Payload TLV.

Abbrev Name Description T_NAME Name The CCNx Name requested in an Interest or published in a Content Object. T_PAYLOAD Payload The message payload.

A Name is a TLV encoded sequence of segments. The table below lists the type values appropriate for these Name segments. A Name MUST NOT include PAD TLVs. As described in CCNx Semantics, using the CCNx URI notation, a T_NAME with 0 length corresponds to ccnx:/ (the default route) and is distinct from a name with one zero length segment, such as ccnx:/NAME=. In the TLV encoding, ccnx:/ corresponds to T_NAME with 0 length, while ccnx:/NAME= corresponds to T_NAME with 4 length and T_NAMESEGMENT with 0 length.

Symbolic Name Name Description T_NAMESEGMENT Name segment A generic name Segment. T_IPID Interest Payload ID An identifier that represents the Interest Payload field. As an example, the Payload ID might be a hash of the Interest Payload. This provides a way to differentiate between Interests based on their payloads without having to parse all the bytes of the payload itself; instead using only this Payload ID Name segment. T_APP:00 - T_APP:4096 Application Components Application-specific payload in a name segment. An application may apply its own semantics to the 4096 reserved types.

4096 special application payload name segments are allocated. These have application semantics applied to them. A good convention is to put the application's identity in the name prior to using these name segments. For example, a name like "ccnx:/foo/bar/yo" would be encoded as:

The InterestPayloadID is a name segment created by the origin of an Interest to represent the Interest Payload. This allows the proper multiplexing of Interests based on their name if they have different payloads. A common representation is to use a hash of the Interest Payload as the InterestPayloadID. As part of the TLV 'value', the InterestPayloadID contains a one identifier of method used to create the InterestPayloadID followed by a variable length octet string. An implementation is not required to implement any of the methods to receive an Interest; the InterestPayloadID may be treated only as an opaque octet string for purposes of multiplexing Interests with different payloads. Only a device creating an InterestPayloadID name segment or a device verifying such a segment need to implement the algorithms. It uses the encoding of hash values. In normal operations, we recommend displaying the InterestPayloadID as an opaque octet string in a CCNx URI, as this is the common denominator for implementation parsing. The InterestPayloadID, even if it is a hash, should not convey any security context. If a system requires confirmation that a specific entity created the InterestPayload, it should use a cryptographic signature on the Interest via the ValidationAlgorithm and ValidationPayload or use its own methods inside the Interest Payload.

Each message type (Interest or Content Object) is associated with a set of optional Message TLVs. Additional specification documents may extend the types associated with each.

There are two Message TLVs currently associated with an Interest message: the KeyIdRestriction selector and the ContentObjectHashRestr selector are used to narrow the universe of acceptable Content Objects that would satisfy the Interest.

Abbrev Name Description T_KEYIDRESTR KeyIdRestriction A representation of the KeyId T_OBJHASHRESTR ContentObjectHashRestriction A representation of the hash of the specific Content Object that would satisfy the Interest.

An Interest MAY include a KeyIdRestriction selector. This ensures that only Content Objects with matching KeyIds will satisfy the Interest. See for the format of a KeyId.

An Interest MAY contain a ContentObjectHashRestriction selector. This is the hash of the Content Object - the self-certifying name restriction that must be verified in the network, if an Interest carried this restriction. It is calculated from the beginning of the CCNx Message to the end of the packet. The LENGTH MUST be from one of the allowed values for that hash (see ). The ContentObjectHashRestriction SHOULD be of type T_SHA-256 and of length 32 bytes.

| LENGTH | +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ / LENGTH octets of hash / +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ ]]>

The following message TLVs are currently defined for Content Objects: PayloadType (optional) and ExpiryTime (optional).

Abbrev Name Description T_PAYLDTYPE PayloadType Indicates the type of Payload contents. T_EXPIRY ExpiryTime The time at which the Payload expires, as expressed in the number of milliseconds since the epoch in UTC. If missing, Content Object may be used as long as desired.

The PayloadType is a network byte order integer representing the general type of the Payload TLV. T_PAYLOADTYPE_DATA: Data (possibly encrypted) T_PAYLOADTYPE_KEY: Key T_PAYLOADTYPE_LINK: Link The Data type indicate that the Payload of the ContentObject is opaque application bytes. The Key type indicates that the Payload is a DER encoded public key. The Link type indicates that the Payload is a Link. If this field is missing, a "Data" type is assumed.

The ExpiryTime is the time at which the Payload expires, as expressed by a timestamp containing the number of milliseconds since the epoch in UTC. It is a network byte order unsigned integer in a 64-bit field. A cache or end system should not respond with a Content Object past its ExpiryTime. Routers forwarding a Content Object do not need to check the ExpiryTime. If the ExpiryTime field is missing, the Content Object has no expressed expiration and a cache or end system may use the Content Object for as long as desired.

The Payload TLV contains the content of the packet. It MAY be of zero length. If a packet does not have any payload, this field MAY be omitted, rather than carrying a zero length.

Both Interests and Content Objects have the option to include information about how to validate the CCNx message. This information is contained in two TLVs: the ValidationAlgorithm TLV and the ValidationPayload TLV. The ValidationAlgorithm TLV specifies the mechanism to be used to verify the CCNx message. Examples include verification with a Message Integrity Check (MIC), a Message Authentication Code (MAC), or a cryptographic signature. The ValidationPayload TLV contains the validation output, such as the CRC32C code or the RSA signature. An Interest would most likely only use a MIC type of validation - a crc, checksum, or digest.

The ValidationAlgorithm is a set of nested TLVs containing all of the information needed to verify the message. The outermost container has type = T_VALIDATION_ALG. The first nested TLV defines the specific type of validation to be performed on the message. The type is identified with the "ValidationType" as shown in the figure below and elaborated in the table below. Nested within that container are the TLVs for any ValidationType dependent data, for example a Key Id, Key Locator etc. Complete examples of several types may be found in

Abbrev Name Description T_CRC32C CRC32C Castagnoli CRC32 (iSCSI, ext4, etc.), with normal form polynomial 0x1EDC6F41. T_HMAC-SHA256 HMAC-SHA256 HMAC (RFC 2104) using SHA256 hash. T_VMAC-128 VMAC-128 VMAC with 128bit tags T_RSA-SHA256 RSA-SHA256 RSA public key signature using SHA256 digest. EC-SECP-256K1 SECP-256K1 Elliptic Curve signature with SECP-256K1 parameters (see ). EC-SECP-384R1 SECP-384R1 Elliptic Curve signature with SECP-384R1 parameters (see ).

MICs do not require additional data in order to perform the verification. An example is CRC32C that has a "0" length value.

MACs are useful for communication between two trusting parties who have already shared private keys. Examples include an RSA signature of a SHA256 digest or others. They rely on a KeyId. Some MACs might use more than a KeyId, but those would be defined in the future.

Signature type Validators specify a digest mechanism and a signing algorithm to verify the message. Examples include RSA signature og a SHA256 digest, an Elliptic Curve signature with SECP-256K1 parameters, etc. These Validators require a KeyId and a mechanism for locating the publishers public key (a KeyLocator) - optionally a PublicKey or Certificate or KeyName.

Different Validation Algorithms require access to different pieces of data contained in the ValidationAlgorithm TLV. As described above, Key Ids, Key Locators, Public Keys, Certificates, Links and Key Names all play a role in different Validation Algorithms. Following is a table of CCNx ValidationType dependent data types: Abbrev Name Description T_KEYID SignerKeyId An identifier of the shared secret or public key associated with a MAC or Signature. T_PUBLICKEY Public Key DER encoded public key. T_CERT Certificate DER encoded X509 certificate. T_KEYNAME KeyName A CCNx Link object. T_SIGTIME SignatureTime A millsecond timestamp indicating the time when the signature was created.

The KeyId is the publisher key identifier. It is similar to a Subject Key Identifier from X509 [RFC 5280, Section 4.2.1.2]. It should be derived from the key used to sign, such as from the SHA-256 hash of the key. It applies to both public/private key systems and to symmetric key systems. The KeyId is represented using the . If a protocol uses a non-hash identifier, it should use one of the reserved values.

| LENGTH | +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ / LENGTH octets of hash / +---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ ]]>

A Public Key is a DER encoded Subject Public Key Info block, as in an X509 certificate.

A KeyName type KeyLocator is a Link. The KeyName digest is the publisher digest of the Content Object identified by KeyName. It may be included on an Interest's digest restriction. A KeyName is a mandatory Name and an optional KeyId. The KeyId inside the KeyLocator may be included in an Interest's KeyId to retrieve only the specified key.

The SignatureTime is a millisecond timestamp indicating the time at which a signature was created. The signer sets this field to the current time when creating a signature. A verifier may use this time to determine whether or not the signature was created during the validity period of a key, or if it occurred in a reasonable sequence with other associated signatures. The SignatureTime is unrelated to any time associated with the actual CCNx Message, which could have been created long before the signature. The default behavior is to always include a SignatureTime when creating an authenticated message (e.g. HMAC or RSA). SignatureTime is a network byte ordered unsigned integer of the number of milliseconds since the epoch in UTC of when the signature was created. It is a fixed 64-bit field.

As an example of a MIC type validation, the encoding for CRC32C validation would be:

As an example of a MAC type validation, the encoding for an HMAC using a SHA256 hash would be:

As an example of a Signature type validation, the encoding for an RSA public key signing using a SHA256 digest and Public Key would be:

The ValidationPayload contains the validation output, such as the CRC32C code or the RSA signature.
