- A Means for Expressing Location Information in the Domain Name System
-
-Status of this Memo
-
- This memo defines an Experimental Protocol for the Internet
- community. This memo does not specify an Internet standard of any
- kind. Discussion and suggestions for improvement are requested.
- Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
-
-1. Abstract
-
- This memo defines a new DNS RR type for experimental purposes. This
- RFC describes a mechanism to allow the DNS to carry location
- information about hosts, networks, and subnets. Such information for
- a small subset of hosts is currently contained in the flat-file UUCP
- maps. However, just as the DNS replaced the use of HOSTS.TXT to
- carry host and network address information, it is possible to replace
- the UUCP maps as carriers of location information.
-
- This RFC defines the format of a new Resource Record (RR) for the
- Domain Name System (DNS), and reserves a corresponding DNS type
- mnemonic (LOC) and numerical code (29).
-
- This RFC assumes that the reader is familiar with the DNS [RFC 1034,
- RFC 1035]. The data shown in our examples is for pedagogical use and
- does not necessarily reflect the real Internet.

- (octet)
-
-where:
-
-VERSION Version number of the representation. This must be zero.
- Implementations are required to check this field and make
- no assumptions about the format of unrecognized versions.
-
-SIZE The diameter of a sphere enclosing the described entity, in
- centimeters, expressed as a pair of four-bit unsigned
- integers, each ranging from zero to nine, with the most
- significant four bits representing the base and the second
- number representing the power of ten by which to multiply
- the base. This allows sizes from 0e0 (<1cm) to 9e9
- (90,000km) to be expressed. This representation was chosen
- such that the hexadecimal representation can be read by
- eye; 0x15 = 1e5. Four-bit values greater than 9 are
- undefined, as are values with a base of zero and a non-zero
- exponent.
-
- Since 20000000m (represented by the value 0x29) is greater
- than the equatorial diameter of the WGS 84 ellipsoid
- (12756274m), it is therefore suitable for use as a
- "worldwide" size.
-
-HORIZ PRE The horizontal precision of the data, in centimeters,
- expressed using the same representation as SIZE. This is
- the diameter of the horizontal "circle of error", rather
-
-
-
-Davis, et al Experimental [Page 2]
-
-RFC 1876 Location Information in the DNS January 1996
-
-
- than a "plus or minus" value. (This was chosen to match
- the interpretation of SIZE; to get a "plus or minus" value,
- divide by 2.)
-
-VERT PRE The vertical precision of the data, in centimeters,
- expressed using the sane representation as for SIZE. This
- is the total potential vertical error, rather than a "plus
- or minus" value. (This was chosen to match the
- interpretation of SIZE; to get a "plus or minus" value,
- divide by 2.) Note that if altitude above or below sea
- level is used as an approximation for altitude relative to
- the [WGS 84] ellipsoid, the precision value should be
- adjusted.
-
-LATITUDE The latitude of the center of the sphere described by the
- SIZE field, expressed as a 32-bit integer, most significant
- octet first (network standard byte order), in thousandths
- of a second of arc. 2^31 represents the equator; numbers
- above that are north latitude.
-
-LONGITUDE The longitude of the center of the sphere described by the
- SIZE field, expressed as a 32-bit integer, most significant
- octet first (network standard byte order), in thousandths
- of a second of arc, rounded away from the prime meridian.
- 2^31 represents the prime meridian; numbers above that are
- east longitude.
-
-ALTITUDE The altitude of the center of the sphere described by the
- SIZE field, expressed as a 32-bit integer, most significant
- octet first (network standard byte order), in centimeters,
- from a base of 100,000m below the [WGS 84] reference
- spheroid used by GPS (semimajor axis a=6378137.0,
- reciprocal flattening rf=298.257223563). Altitude above
- (or below) sea level may be used as an approximation of
- altitude relative to the the [WGS 84] spheroid, though due
- to the Earth's surface not being a perfect spheroid, there
- will be differences. (For example, the geoid (which sea
- level approximates) for the continental US ranges from 10
- meters to 50 meters below the [WGS 84] spheroid.
- Adjustments to ALTITUDE and/or VERT PRE will be necessary
- in most cases. The Defense Mapping Agency publishes geoid
- height values relative to the [WGS 84] ellipsoid.

-3. Master File Format
-
- The LOC record is expressed in a master file in the following format:
-
- <owner> <TTL> <class> LOC ( d1 [m1 [s1]] {"N"|"S"} d2 [m2 [s2]]
- {"E"|"W"} alt["m"] [siz["m"] [hp["m"]
- [vp["m"]]]] )
-
- (The parentheses are used for multi-line data as specified in [RFC
- 1035] section 5.1.)
-
- where:
-
- d1: [0 .. 90] (degrees latitude)
- d2: [0 .. 180] (degrees longitude)
- m1, m2: [0 .. 59] (minutes latitude/longitude)
- s1, s2: [0 .. 59.999] (seconds latitude/longitude)
- alt: [-100000.00 .. 42849672.95] BY .01 (altitude in meters)
- siz, hp, vp: [0 .. 90000000.00] (size/precision in meters)
-
- If omitted, minutes and seconds default to zero, size defaults to 1m,
- horizontal precision defaults to 10000m, and vertical precision
- defaults to 10m. These defaults are chosen to represent typical
- ZIP/postal code area sizes, since it is often easy to find
- approximate geographical location by ZIP/postal code.
-

-5. Application use of the LOC RR
-
-5.1 Suggested Uses
-
- Some uses for the LOC RR have already been suggested, including the
- USENET backbone flow maps, a "visual traceroute" application showing
- the geographical path of an IP packet, and network management
- applications that could use LOC RRs to generate a map of hosts and
- routers being managed.
-
-5.2 Search Algorithms
-
- This section specifies how to use the DNS to translate domain names
- and/or IP addresses into location information.
-
- If an application wishes to have a "fallback" behavior, displaying a
- less precise or larger area when a host does not have an associated
- LOC RR, it MAY support use of the algorithm in section 5.2.3, as
- noted in sections 5.2.1 and 5.2.2. If fallback is desired, this
- behaviour is the RECOMMENDED default, but in some cases it may need
- to be modified based on the specific requirements of the application
- involved.
-
- This search algorithm is designed to allow network administrators to
- specify the location of a network or subnet without requiring LOC RR
- data for each individual host. For example, a computer lab with 24
- workstations, all of which are on the same subnet and in basically
- the same location, would only need a LOC RR for the subnet.
- (However, if the file server's location has been more precisely
- measured, a separate LOC RR for it can be placed in the DNS.)
-
-5.2.1 Searching by Name
-
- If the application is beginning with a name, rather than an IP
- address (as the USENET backbone flow maps do), it MUST check for a
- LOC RR associated with that name. (CNAME records should be followed
- as for any other RR type.)
-
- If there is no LOC RR for that name, all A records (if any)
- associated with the name MAY be checked for network (or subnet) LOC
- RRs using the "Searching by Network or Subnet" algorithm (5.2.3). If
- multiple A records exist and have associated network or subnet LOC
- RRs, the application may choose to use any, some, or all of the LOC
- RRs found, possibly in combination. It is suggested that multi-homed
- hosts have LOC RRs for their name in the DNS to avoid any ambiguity
- in these cases.
-
-
-
-
-
-Davis, et al Experimental [Page 5]
-
-RFC 1876 Location Information in the DNS January 1996
-
-
- Note that domain names that do not have associated A records must
- have a LOC RR associated with their name in order for location
- information to be accessible.
-
-5.2.2 Searching by Address
-
- If the application is beginning with an IP address (as a "visual
- traceroute" application might be) it MUST first map the address to a
- name using the IN-ADDR.ARPA namespace (see [RFC 1034], section
- 5.2.1), then check for a LOC RR associated with that name.
-
- If there is no LOC RR for the name, the address MAY be checked for
- network (or subnet) LOC RRs using the "Searching by Network or
- Subnet" algorithm (5.2.3).
-
-5.2.3 Searching by Network or Subnet
-
- Even if a host's name does not have any associated LOC RRs, the
- network(s) or subnet(s) it is on may. If the application wishes to
- search for such less specific data, the following algorithm SHOULD be
- followed to find a network or subnet LOC RR associated with the IP
- address. This algorithm is adapted slightly from that specified in
- [RFC 1101], sections 4.3 and 4.4.
-
- Since subnet LOC RRs are (if present) more specific than network LOC
- RRs, it is best to use them if available. In order to do so, we
- build a stack of network and subnet names found while performing the
- [RFC 1101] search, then work our way down the stack until a LOC RR is
- found.
-
- 1. create a host-zero address using the network portion of the IP
- address (one, two, or three bytes for class A, B, or C networks,
- respectively). For example, for the host 128.9.2.17, on the class
- B network 128.9, this would result in the address "128.9.0.0".
-
- 2. Reverse the octets, suffix IN-ADDR.ARPA, and query for PTR and A
- records. Retrieve:
-
- 0.0.9.128.IN-ADDR.ARPA. PTR isi-net.isi.edu.
- A 255.255.255.0
-
- Push the name "isi-net.isi.edu" onto the stack of names to be
- searched for LOC RRs later.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-Davis, et al Experimental [Page 6]
-
-RFC 1876 Location Information in the DNS January 1996
-
-
- 3. Since an A RR was found, repeat using mask from RR
- (255.255.255.0), constructing a query for 0.2.9.128.IN-ADDR.ARPA.
- Retrieve:
-
- 0.2.9.128.IN-ADDR.ARPA. PTR div2-subnet.isi.edu.
- A 255.255.255.240
-
- Push the name "div2-subnet.isi.edu" onto the stack of names to be
- searched for LOC RRs later.
-
- 4. Since another A RR was found, repeat using mask 255.255.255.240
- (x'FFFFFFF0'), constructing a query for 16.2.9.128.IN-ADDR.ARPA.
- Retrieve:
-
- 16.2.9.128.IN-ADDR.ARPA. PTR inc-subsubnet.isi.edu.
-
- Push the name "inc-subsubnet.isi.edu" onto the stack of names to
- be searched for LOC RRs later.
-
- 5. Since no A RR is present at 16.2.9.128.IN-ADDR.ARPA., there are no
- more subnet levels to search. We now pop the top name from the
- stack and check for an associated LOC RR. Repeat until a LOC RR
- is found.
-
- In this case, assume that inc-subsubnet.isi.edu does not have an
- associated LOC RR, but that div2-subnet.isi.edu does. We will
- then use div2-subnet.isi.edu's LOC RR as an approximation of this
- host's location. (Note that even if isi-net.isi.edu has a LOC RR,
- it will not be used if a subnet also has a LOC RR.)
-
-5.3 Applicability to non-IN Classes and non-IP Addresses
-
- The LOC record is defined for all RR classes, and may be used with
- non-IN classes such as HS and CH. The semantics of such use are not
- defined by this memo.
-
- The search algorithm in section 5.2.3 may be adapted to other
- addressing schemes by extending [RFC 1101]'s encoding of network
- names to cover those schemes. Such extensions are not defined by
- this memo.

-7. Security Considerations
-
- High-precision LOC RR information could be used to plan a penetration
- of physical security, leading to potential denial-of-machine attacks.
- To avoid any appearance of suggesting this method to potential
- attackers, we declined the opportunity to name this RR "ICBM".
