Abstract

   This document defines a bidirectional protocol mapping for the
   exchange of instant messages in the context of a one-to-one chat
   session between a user of the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) and a
   user of the Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP).
   Specifically for SIP text chat, this document specifies a mapping to
   the Message Session Relay Protocol (MSRP).

1.  Introduction

   Both the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) [RFC3261] and the
   Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP) [RFC6120] can be
   used for the purpose of one-to-one text chat over the Internet.  To
   ensure interworking between these technologies, it is important to
   define bidirectional protocol mappings.

   The architectural assumptions underlying such protocol mappings are
   provided in [I-D.ietf-stox-core], including mapping of addresses and
   error conditions.  This document specifies mappings for one-to-one
   text chat sessions (sometimes called "session-mode" messaging); in
   particular, this document specifies mappings between XMPP messages of
   type "chat" and the Message Session Relay Protocol (MSRP) [RFC4975],
   which is commonly used in SIP-based systems for chat functionality
   (although note that MSRP is not conjoined to SIP, and can be used by
   non-SIP technologies).  Mappings for single instant messages and
   groupchat are provided in separate documents.

   The approach taken here is to directly map syntax and semantics from
   one protocol to another.  The mapping described herein depends on the
   protocols defined in the following specifications:

   o  XMPP chat sessions using message stanzas of type "chat" are
      specified in [RFC6121].

   o  MSRP chat sessions using the SIP INVITE and SEND request types are
      specified in [RFC4975].

Internet-Draft         SIP-XMPP Interworking: Chat          January 2014

   In SIP-based systems that use MSRP, a chat session is formally
   negotiated just as any other session type is using SIP.  By contrast,
   a one-to-one chat "session" in XMPP is an informal construct and is
   not formally negotiated: a user simply sends a message of type "chat"
   to a contact, the contact then replies to the message, and the sum
   total of such messages exchanged during a defined period of time is
   considered to be a chat session (ideally tied together using an XMPP
   <thread/> element as described in Section 5.1 of [RFC6121]).  To
   overcome the disparity between these approaches, a gateway that
   wishes to map between SIP/MSRP and XMPP for one-to-one chat sessions
   needs to maintain some additional state, as described below.

2.  Terminology

   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
   [RFC2119].

3.  XMPP to MSRP

   In XMPP, the "informal session" approach is to simply send someone a
   <message/> of type "chat" without starting any session negotiation
   ahead of time (as described in [RFC6121]).  The XMPP "informal
   session" approach maps very well into a SIP MESSAGE request, as
   described in [I-D.ietf-stox-core].  However, the XMPP informal
   session approach can also be mapped to MSRP if the XMPP-to-SIP
   gateway maintains additional state.

   The order of events is as follows.

   XMPP User                      GW                      SIP User
       |                          |                          |
       |(F1) (XMPP) Chat message  |                          |
       |------------------------->|                          |
       |                          |(F2) (SIP) INVITE         |
       |                          |------------------------->|

       |                          |------------------------->|
       |                          |(F6) (MSRP) A reply       |
       |                          |<-------------------------|
       |(F7) (XMPP) A reply       |                          |

       |                          |                          |

   The mapping of XMPP syntax to SIP syntax SHOULD be as shown in the
   following table.  (Mappings for several aspects not mentioned here
   are specified in [I-D.ietf-stox-im].)

   Table 1: Message syntax mapping from XMPP to SIP

   +-----------------------------+--------------------------+
   |  XMPP Element or Attribute  |  SIP Header or Contents  |
   +-----------------------------+--------------------------+
   |  <thread/>                  |  Call-ID                 |
   |  id                         |  transaction identifier  |
   +-----------------------------+--------------------------+

   First the XMPP user would generate an XMPP chat message.

   Example 1: Juliet sends XMPP message (F1)

   | <message from='juliet@example.com/balcony'
   |          to='romeo@example.net'
   |          id='a786hjs2'
   |          type='chat'>
   |   <thread>29377446-0CBB-4296-8958-590D79094C50</thread>
   |   <body>Art thou not Romeo, and a Montague?</body>
   | </message>

   Upon receiving such a message stanza, the XMPP server needs to
   determine the identity of the domainpart in the 'to' address, which
   it does by following the procedures explained in Section 5 of
   [I-D.ietf-stox-core].  Here we assume that the XMPP server has
   determined the domain is serviced by an MSRP server, that it contains
   or has available to it an XMPP-to-SIP gateway or connection manager
   (which enables it to speak natively to MSRP servers), and that it
   hands off the message stanza to the XMPP-SIP gateway.

Internet-Draft         SIP-XMPP Interworking: Chat          January 2014

   The XMPP-to-SIP gateway at the XMPP server would then initiate an
   MSRP session with Romeo on Juliet's behalf (since there is no
   reliable way for the gateway to determine if Romeo's client supports
   MSRP, it simply needs to guess).

   Example 2: Gateway starts SIP session on behalf of Juliet (F2)

   | INVITE sip:romeo@example.net SIP/2.0
   | To: <sip:romeo@example.net>
   | From: <sip:juliet@example.com>
   | Contact: <sip:juliet@example.com>;gr=balcony
   | Subject: Open chat with Juliet?
   | Call-ID: 29377446-0CBB-4296-8958-590D79094C50
   | Content-Type: application/sdp
   |
   | c=IN IP4 x2s.example.com
   | m=message 7654 TCP/MSRP *
   | a=accept-types:text/plain
   | a=path:msrp://x2s.example.com:7654/jshA7weztas;tcp

   Here we assume that Romeo accepts the MSRP session request.

   Example 3: Romeo accepts session request (F3)

   | SIP/2.0 200 OK
   | To: <sip:juliet@example.com>
   | From: <sip:romeo@example.net>
   | Contact: <sip:romeo@example.net>;gr=orchard
   | Call-ID: 29377446-0CBB-4296-8958-590D79094C50
   | Content-Type: application/sdp
   |
   | c=IN IP4 s2x.example.net
   | m=message 12763 TCP/MSRP *
   | a=accept-types:text/plain
   | a=path:msrp://s2x.example.net:12763/kjhd37s2s20w2a;tcp

   The XMPP-to-SIP gateway then acknowledges the session acceptance on
   behalf of Juliet.

Internet-Draft         SIP-XMPP Interworking: Chat          January 2014

   Example 4: Gateway sends ACK to Romeo (F4)

   | ACK sip:juliet@example.com SIP/2.0
   | To: <sip:romeo@example.net>;gr=orchard
   | From: <sip:juliet@example.com>
   | Contact: <sip:juliet@example.com>;gr=balcony
   | Call-ID: 29377446-0CBB-4296-8958-590D79094C50

   The XMPP-to-SIP gateway then transforms the original XMPP chat
   message into MSRP.

   Example 5: Gateway maps XMPP message to MSRP (F5)

   | MSRP a786hjs2 SEND
   | From-Path: msrp://x2s.example.com:7654/jshA7weztas;tcp
   | To-Path: msrp://s2x.example.net:12763/kjhd37s2s20w2a;tcp
   | Message-ID: 54C6F4F1-A39C-47D6-8718-FA65B3D0414A
   | Byte-Range: 1-25/25
   | Content-Type: text/plain
   |
   | Art thou not Romeo, and a Montague?
   | -------a786hjs2$

   Romeo can then send a reply using his MSRP client.

   Example 6: Romeo sends reply (F6)

   | MSRP di2fs53v SEND
   | To-Path: msrp://x2s.example.com:7654/jshA7weztas;tcp
   | From-Path: msrp://s2x.example.net:12763/kjhd37s2s20w2a;tcp
   | Message-ID: 6480C096-937A-46E7-BF9D-1353706B60AA
   | Byte-Range: 1-25/25
   | Failure-Report: no
   | Content-Type: text/plain
   |
   | Neither, fair saint, if either thee dislike.
   | -------di2fs53v$

   The SIP-to-XMPP gateway would then transform that message into
   appropriate XMPP syntax for routing to the intended recipient.

   Example 7: Gateway maps MSRP message to XMPP (F7)

Saint-Andre & Loreto      Expires July 27, 2014                 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft         SIP-XMPP Interworking: Chat          January 2014

   | <message from='romeo@example.net/orchard'
   |          to='juliet@example.com/balcony'
   |          id='di2fs53v'
   |          type='chat'>
   |   <thread>29377446-0CBB-4296-8958-590D79094C50</thread>
   |   <body>Neither, fair saint, if either thee dislike.</body>
   | </message>

   When the MSRP user wishes to end the chat session, the user's MSRP
   client sends a SIP BYE.

   Example 8: Romeo terminates chat session (F8)

   | BYE juliet@example.com sip: SIP/2.0
   | From: <sip:romeo@example.net>;tag=087js
   | To: <sip:juliet@example.com>;tag=786
   | Call-ID: 29377446-0CBB-4296-8958-590D79094C50
   | Cseq: 1 BYE
   | Content-Length: 0

   The BYE is then acknowledged by the XMPP-to-SIP gateway.

   Example 9: Gateway acknowledges termination (F9)

   | SIP/2.0 200 OK
   | From: <sip:juliet@example.com>;tag=786
   | To: <sip:romeo@example.net>;tag=087js
   | Call-ID: 29377446-0CBB-4296-8958-590D79094C50
   | CSeq: 1 BYE
   | Content-Length: 0

4.  MSRP to XMPP

   When an MSRP client sends messages through a gateway to an XMPP
   client, the order of events is as follows.

   SIP User                     GW                     XMPP User
      |                         |                          |
      |(F1)(SIP) INVITE         |                          |
      |------------------------>|                          |
      |(F2)(SIP) 200 OK         |                          |
      |<------------------------|                          |
      |(F3)(SIP) ACK            |                          |
      |------------------------>|                          |
      |(F4)(MSRP) SEND          |                          |

      |                         |                          |

   The mapping of SIP syntax to XMPP syntax SHOULD be as shown in the
   following table.  (Mappings for several aspects not mentioned here
   are specified in [I-D.ietf-stox-im].)

   The protocol flow begins when Romeo starts a chat session with
   Juliet.

   Upon receiving the INVITE, the SIP (MSRP) server needs to determine
   the identity of the domain portion of the Request-URI or To header,
   which it does by following the procedures explained in Section 5 of
   [I-D.ietf-stox-core].  Here we assume that the SIP server has
   determined that the domain is serviced by an XMPP server, that it
   contains or has available to it a SIP-to-XMPP gateway or connection
   manager (which enables it to speak natively to XMPP servers), and
   that it hands off the message to the gateway.

5.  Composing Events

   Both XMPP and MSRP enable a client to receive notifications when a
   person's conversation partner is composing an instant message within
   the context of a chat session.

   For XMPP, the Chat State Notifications specification [XEP-0085]
   defines five states: active, inactive, gone, composing, and paused.
   Some of these states are related to the act of message composition
   (composing, paused), whereas others are related to the sender's
   involvement with the chat session (active, inactive, gone).

Saint-Andre & Loreto      Expires July 27, 2014                [Page 11]
Internet-Draft         SIP-XMPP Interworking: Chat          January 2014

   For MSRP (and SIP/SIMPLE in general), the Indication of Message
   Composition for Instant Messaging specification [RFC3994] defines two
   states: idle and active.  Here the idle state indicates that the
   sender is not actively composing a message, and the active state
   indicates that the sender is indeed actively composing a message (the
   sending client simply toggles between the two states, changing to
   active if the user is actively composing a message and changing to
   idle if the user is no longer actively composing a message).

   Because the XEP-0085 states can represent information that is not
   captured in RFC 3994, gateways can either (a) map only the composing-
   related states or (b) map all the XEP-0085 states.

   The following mappings are suggested.

   Table 3: Mapping of SIP/SIMPLE isComposing events to XMPP chat states

   +-------------------+--------------------+
   | isComposing Event |  Chat State        |
   +-------------------+--------------------+
   | active            |  composing         |
   | idle              |  active            |
   +-------------------+--------------------+

   Table 4: Mapping of XMPP chat states to SIP/SIMPLE isComposing events

   +-------------------+--------------------+
   | Chat State        | isComposing Event  |
   +-------------------+--------------------+
   | active            |  idle              |
   | inactive          |  idle              |
   | gone              |  [none, see note]  |
   | composing         |  active            |
   | paused            |  idle              |
   +-------------------+--------------------+

   Although there is no direct mapping for the "gone" chat state (which
   is not to be confused with the <gone/> stanza error condition defined
   in [RFC6120]) to an isComposing event, receipt of the "gone" state
   can be used as a trigger for terminating the formal chat session
   within MSRP, i.e., for sending a SIP BYE for the session from the
   XMPP-SIP gateway to the SIP user.  The following examples illustrate
   this indirect mapping.

   Example 19: Juliet sends gone chat state

Internet-Draft         SIP-XMPP Interworking: Chat          January 2014

   | <message from='juliet@example.com'
   |          id='nx62f197'
   |          to='romeo@example.net'
   |          type='chat'>
   |   <thread>29377446-0CBB-4296-8958-590D79094C50</thread>
   |   <gone xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/chatstates'/>
   | </message>

   Example 20: XMPP-SIP gateway maps gone chat state to SIP BYE

   | BYE romeo@example.net sip: SIP/2.0
   | From: <sip:juliet@example.com>;tag=786
   | To: <sip:romeo@example.net>;tag=087js
   | Call-ID: 29377446-0CBB-4296-8958-590D79094C50
   | Cseq: 1 BYE
   | Content-Length: 0

6.  Delivery Reports

   Both XMPP and MSRP enable a client to receive notifications when a
   message has been received by the intended recipient.

   For XMPP, the Message Receipts specification [XEP-0184] defines a
   method and XML namespace for requesting and returning indications
   that a message has been received by a client controlled by the
   intended recipient.

   For MSRP, a native reporting feature is included, in the form of
   REPORT chunks (see Sections 7.1.2 and 7.1.3 of [RFC4975]).

   Examples follow.

   First, the XMPP user sends a message containing a request for
   delivery notification.

   Example 21: Juliet sends XMPP message with receipt request

   | <message from='juliet@example.com'
   |          id='bf9m36d5'
   |          to='romeo@example.net'
   |          type='chat'>
   |   <thread>29377446-0CBB-4296-8958-590D79094C50</thread>
   |   <body>What man art thou ...?</body>
   |   <request xmlns='urn:xmpp:receipts'/>
   | </message>

Internet-Draft         SIP-XMPP Interworking: Chat          January 2014

   Example 22: Gateway maps XMPP message to MSRP

   | MSRP bf9m36d5 SEND
   | To-Path: msrp://s2x.example.net:7313/jshA7weztas;tcp
   | From-Path: msrp://x2s.example.com:8763/lkjh37s2s20w2a;tcp
   | Message-ID: 6187CF9B-317A-41DA-BB6A-5E48A9C794EF
   | Byte-Range: 1-25/25
   | Success-Report: yes
   | Failure-Report: no
   | Content-Type: text/plain
   |
   | What man art thou ...?
   | -------bf9m36d5$

   Next, the recipient returns a report.

   Example 23: Romeo returns MSRP receipt

   | MSRP hx74g336 REPORT
   | To-Path: msrp://x2s.example.com:8763/lkjh37s2s20w2a;tcp
   | From-Path: msrp://s2x.example.net:7313/jshA7weztas;tcp
   | Message-ID: 6187CF9B-317A-41DA-BB6A-5E48A9C794EF
   | Byte-Range: 1-106/106
   | Status: 000 200 OK
   | -------hx74g336$

   Example 24: SIP-XMPP gateway maps receipt to XMPP

   | <message from='romeo@example.net'
   |          id='hx74g336'
   |          to='juliet@example.com'>
   |   <received xmlns='urn:xmpp:receipts' id='87652491'/>
   | </message>

7.  Internationalization Considerations

   Relevant discussion of internationalized text in messages can be
   found in [I-D.ietf-stox-im].

8.  IANA Considerations

   This document requests no actions of IANA.

9.  Security Considerations

   Detailed security considerations for instant messaging protocols are
   given in [RFC2779], for MSRP chat in [RFC4975] (see also [RFC3261]
   when SIP is used to negotiate MSRP sessions), and for XMPP-based
   instant messaging in [RFC6121] (see also [RFC6120]).  The security
   considerations provided in [I-D.ietf-stox-core] also apply.

   This document specifies methods for exchanging instant messages
   through a gateway that translates between SIP/MSRP and XMPP.  Such a
   gateway MUST be compliant with the minimum security requirements of
   the textual chat protocols for which it translates (i.e., MSRP and
   XMPP).  The addition of gateways to the security model of instant
   messaging specified in [RFC2779] introduces some new risks.  In
   particular, end-to-end security properties (especially
   confidentiality and integrity) between instant messaging clients that
   interface through an MSRP-XMPP gateway can be provided only if common
   formats are supported.  Specification of those common formats is out
   of scope for this document, although it is suggested to use [RFC3862]
   for instant messages.
