Abstract
This document specifies the data model and the overall structure for
a protocol to provision session establishment data into Session Data
Registries and SIP Service Provider data stores. The protocol is
called the Session Peering Provisioning Protocol (SPPP). The
provisioned data is typically used by network elements for session
peering.

To support the use cases defined in
[I-D.ietf-drinks-usecases-requirements], SPPP defines three type
of Route Records: URIType, NAPTRType, and NSType. These Route
Records extend the abstract type RteRecType and inherit the common
attribute 'priority' that is meant for setting precedence across
the route records defined within a Route Group in a protocol
agnostic fashion.

+5.2.1. Generic Object Key Type
The SPPP data model contains some object relationships. In some
cases these object relationships are established by embedding the
- unique identity of the related object inside the relating object.

- housed. Because this objec type is abstract, it MUST be specifid in

+ unique identity of the related object inside the relating object. In
+ addition, an object's unique identity is required to Delete or Get
+ the details of an object. The abstract type called ObjKeyType is
+ where this unique identity is housed. Because this object key type
+ is abstract, it MUST be specified in a concrete form in any
+ conforming SPPP "transport" specification.
+
+ Most objects in SPPP are uniquely identified by an object key that
+ has the object's name, object's type and its registrant's
+ organization ID as its attributes. Consequently, any concrete
+ representation of the ObjKeyType MUST contain the following:
+
+ Object Name: The name of the object.
+
+ Registrant Id: The unique organization ID that identifies the
+ Registrant.
+
+ Type: The enumeration vaue that represents the type of SPPP object
+ that. This is required as different types of objects in SPPP,
+ that belong to the same registrant, can have the same name.
+
+ The structure of abstract ObjKeyType is as follows:
- -- Generic type that represents the
- key for various objects in SPPP. --
+ ---- Generic type that represents the
+ key for various objects in SPPP. ----

+ structure. The structure of the the enumeration is as follows:
+
+
+
+

+

+
+5.2.2. Derived Object Key Types
+
+ The SPPP data model contains certain objects that are uniquely
+ identified by attributes, different from or in addition to, the
+ attributes in the generic object key described in previous section.
+ These kind of object keys are derived from the abstract ObjKeyType
+ and defined in there own abstract key types. Because these object
+ key types are abstract, these MUST be specified in a concrete form in
+ any conforming SPPP "transport" specification. These are used in
+ Delete and Get operations, and may also be used in Accept and Reject
+ operations.
+
+ Following are the derived object keys in SPPP data model:
+
+ o RteGrpOfferKeyType: This uniquely identifies a Route Group
+ object offer. This key type extends from ObjKeyType and MUST
+ also have the organization ID of the Registrant to whom the
+ object is being offered, as one of its attributes. In addition
+ to the Delete and Get operations, these key types are used in
+ Accept and Reject operations on a Route Group Offer object. The
+ structure of abstract RteGrpOfferKeyType is as follows:
+
+
+
+
+
+
+ ---- Generic type that represents the
+ key for a object offer. ----
+
+
+ A Route Group Offer object MUST use RteGrpOfferKeyType. Refer
+ the "Protocol Data Model Objects" section of this document for
+ description of Route Group Offer object.
+
+ o PubIdKeyType: This uniquely identifies a Public Identity object.
+ This key type extends from abstract ObjKeyType. Any concrete
+ defintion of PubIdKeyType MUST contain the elements that
+ identify the value and type of Public Identity and also contain
+ the organization ID of the Registrant that is the owner of the
+ Public Identity object. A Public Identity object key in SPPP is
+ uniquely identified by the the registrant's organization ID, the
+ value of the public identity, and, optionally, the Destination
+ Group name the public identiy belongs to. Consequently, any
+ concrete representation of the ObjKeyType MUST contain the
+ following attributes:
+
+ * Registrant Id: The unique organization ID that identifies
+ the Registrant.
+
+ * Destination Group name: The name of the Destination Group
+ the Public Identity is associated with. This is an
+ optional attribute.
+
+ * Type: The type of Public Identity.
+
+ * Value: The value of the Public Identity.
+
+ The .PubIdKeyType is used in Delete and Get operations on a
+ Public Identifier object.
+
+ o The structure of abstract PubIdKeyType is as follows:
+
+
+
+
+
+
+ ---- Generic type that represents
+ the key for a Pub Id. ----
+
+
+
+
+
+
+ A Public Identity object MUST use attributes of PubIdKeyType for its
+ unique identification . Refer the "Protocol Data Model Objects"
+ section of this document for a description of Public Identity object.

+5.3. Response Message Types
+
+ This section contains the listing of response types that MUST be
+ defined by the conforming "transport" specification and implemented
+ by a conforming SPPP server.
+
+ +---------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | Response Type | Description |
+ +---------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | Request Succeeded | Any conforming specification MUST define a |
+ | | response to indicate that a given request |
+ | | succeeded. |
+ | | |
+ | Request syntax | Any conforming specification MUST define a |
+ | invalid | response to indicate that a syntax of a |
+ | | given request was found invalid. |
+ | | |
+ | Request too large | Any conforming specification MUST define a |
+ | | response to indicate that the count of |
+ | | entities in the request is larger than the |
+ | | server is willing or able to process. |
+ | | |
+ | Version not | Any conforming specification MUST define a |
+ | supported | response to indicate that the server does |
+ | | not support the version of the SPPP |
+ | | protocol specified in the request. |
+ | | |
+ | Command invalid | Any conforming specification MUST define a |
+ | | response to indicate that the operation |
+ | | and/or command being requested by the |
+ | | client is invalid and/or not supported by |
+ | | the server. |
+ | | |
+ | System temporarily | Any conforming specification MUST define a |
+ | unavailable | response to indicate that the SPPP server |
+ | | is temporarily not available to serve |
+ | | client request. |
+ | | |
+ | Unexpected internal | Any conforming specification MUST define a |
+ | system or server | response to indicate that the SPPP server |
+ | error. | encountered an unexpected error that |
+ | | prevented the server from fulfilling the |
+ | | request. |
+ | | |
+ | Attribute value | Any conforming specification MUST define a |
+ | invalid | response to indicate that the SPPP server |
+ | | encountered an attribute or property in the |
+ | | request that had an invalid/bad value. |
+ | | Optionally, the specification MAY provide a |
+ | | way to indicate the Attribute Name and the |
+ | | Attribute Value to identify the object that |
+ | | was found to be invalid. |
+ | | |
+ | Object does not | Any conforming specification MUST define a |
+ | exist | response to indicate that an object present |
+ | | in the request does not exist on the SPPP |
+ | | server. Optionally, the specification MAY |
+ | | provide a way to indicate the Attribute |
+ | | Name and the Attribute Value that |
+ | | identifies the non-existent object. |
+ | | |
+ | Object status or | Any conforming specification MUST define a |
+ | ownership does not | response to indicate that the operation |
+ | allow for | requested on an object present in the |
+ | operation. | request cannot be performed because the |
+ | | object is in a status that does not allow |
+ | | the said operation or the user requesting |
+ | | the operation is not authorized to perform |
+ | | the said operation on the object. |
+ | | Optionally, the specification MAY provide a |
+ | | way to indicate the Attribute Name and the |
+ | | Attribute Value that identifies the object. |
+ +---------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+
+ Table 1: Response Types
+
+ When the response messages are "parameterized" with the Attribute
+ Name and Attribute Value, then the use of these parameters MUST
+ adhere to the following rules:
+
+ o Any value provided for the Attribute Name parameter MUST be an
+ exact XSD element name of the protocol data element that the
+ response message is referring to. For example, valid values for
+ "attribute name" are "dgName", "rgName", "rteRec", etc.
+
+ o The value for Attribute Value MUST be the value of the data
+ element to which the preceding Attribute Name refers.
+
+ o Response type "Attribute value invalid" SHOULD be used whenever
+ an element value does not adhere to data validation rules.
+
+ o Response types "Attribute value invalid" and "Object does not
+ exist" MUST NOT be used interchangeably. Response type "Object
+ does not exist" SHOULD be returned by an Add/Del/Accept/Reject
+ operation when the data element(s) used to uniquely identify a
+ pre-existing object do not exist. If the data elements used to
+ uniquely identify an object are malformed, then response type
+ "Attribute value invalid" SHOULD be returned.

6.1. Destination Group
As described in the introductory sections, a Destination Group
represents a set of Public Identifiers with common routing
information. The transport protocol MUST support the ability to
- Create, Modify, Get, and Delete Destination Groups. The DestGrpType
- object structure is defined as follows:
+ Create, Modify, Get, and Delete Destination Groups (refer the
+ "Protocol Operations" section of this document for a generic
+ description of various operations).
+
+ A Destination Group object MUST be uniquely identified by attributes
+ as defined in the description of "ObjKeyType" in the section "Generic
+ Object Key Type" of this document.
+
+ The DestGrpType object structure is defined as follows:
The DestGrpType object is composed of the following elements:
o base: All first class objects extend BasicObjType that contains
- the ID of the registrant organization that owns this object, the
- date and time that the object was created by the server, and the
- date and time that the object was last modified. If the client
- passed in either the created date or the modification date, the
- server will ignore them. The server sets these two date/time
- values.
+ the ID of the registrant organization that owns this object,
+ registrar organization that provisioned this object on behalf of
+ the registrant, the date and time that the object was created by
+ the server, and the date and time that the object was last
+ modified. If the client passed in either the created date or
+ the modification date, the server will ignore them. The server
+ sets these two date/time values.
o dgName: The character string that contains the name of the
- Destination Group. This uniquely identifies this object within
- the context of the registrant ID (a child element of the base
- element as described above).
+ Destination Group.
o ext: Point of extensibility described in a previous section of
this document.
6.2. Public Identifier
A Public Identifier is the search key used for locating the session
establishment data (SED). In many cases, a Public Identifier is
attributed to the end user who has a retail relationship with the

The abstract XML schema type definition PubIDType is a generalization

As described in the introductory sections, a Route Group represents a
combined grouping of Route Records that define route information.
However, Route Records need not be created to just serve a single
Route Group. Route Records can be created and managed to serve
multiple Route Groups. As a result, a change to the properties of a
network node used for multiple routes, would necessitate just a
single update operation to change the properties of that node. The

record set contains a reference to that node. The transport protocol
