Internet-Draft   IANA Registration for Enumservice 'iax'      March 2011

1.  Introduction

   The E.164 to Uniform Resource Identifiers (URI) [RFC3986] Dynamic
   Delegation Discovery System (DDDS) Application (ENUM) [RFC6116]
   transforms E.164 [E164] numbers into URIs using the Domain Name
   System (DNS) [RFC1035].

   IAX (Inter-Asterisk eXchange) [RFC5456] is an "all in one" protocol
   for handling multimedia in IP networks.  It combines both control and
   media services in the same protocol.

   This document registers an Enumservice for the IAX [RFC5456] protocol
   according to the guidelines given in [RFC6117].

2.  IANA Registration

   [Note for RFC-Editor: Please replace any instance of rfcTHIS with the
   RFC number of this document before publication]

3.  Examples

   The following examples are just for illustrative purposes and will in
   no way limit the usage of the 'iax' Enumservice to other usage
   scenarios.

3.1.  Simple IAX URI

   The following NAPTR resource record is an example of the 'iax'
   Enumservice.

     $ORIGIN 8.4.1.0.6.4.9.7.0.2.4.4.e164.arpa.

     @     IN NAPTR ( 10 100 "u" "E2U+iax"
                "!^.*$!iax:example.com/alice!" . )

   This contact information indicates that the party addressed by the
   E.164 number +442079460148 can be contacted using the IAX protocol to
   domain 'example.com'.  The called party, service, or program on that
   domain is identified by 'alice'.

3.2.  IAX URI with a context

   The following is an example of the 'iax' Enumservice using an IPv6
   destination address and a destination 'context'.

     $ORIGIN 9.4.1.0.6.4.9.7.0.2.4.4.e164.arpa.

     @     IN NAPTR ( 10 100 "u" "E2U+iax"
                "!^.*$!iax:[2001:db8::1]:4569/alice?friends!" . )

   This NAPTR resource record indicates that +442079460149 may be
   contacted by using the IAX protocol at IPv6 address 2001:db8::1, port
   4569 with the called party 'alice' in the context (or user partition)
   'friends'.  For further usage of IAX URIs see Section 2 of [RFC5456].

4.  Security Considerations

   The 'iax' Enumservice does not introduce any new security issues
   beyond any already present in the ENUM, DNS and IAX protocols except
   that this Enumservice provides for disclosure of information that may
   facilitate an attack or a violation of user privacy in some way.  The
   primary result of these exploits is unwanted communications.  These
   issues are discussed in further detail in [RFC3833].

   The use of DNSSEC [RFC4033] is recommended to improve operational
   security.

Internet-Draft   IANA Registration for Enumservice 'iax'      March 2011

   For security considerations that apply to all Enumservices please
   refer to RFC 6116, Section 7.

5.  IANA Considerations

   This document requests registration of the 'iax' Enumservice
   according to the guidelines and specifications in [RFC6117] and the
   definitions in Section 2 in this document.

6.  DNS Considerations

   Misconfiguration or delays in zone changes can result in call loops,
   perhaps with different protocols or networks.  Implementations should
   take care to ensure such loops can be detected without interrupting
   other services including SIP-based, IAX-based, and DNS itself.
