Abstract
This document presents an object-oriented information model of IP
Security (IPsec) policy designed to facilitate agreement about the
content and semantics of IPsec policy, and enable derivations of
task-specific representations of IPsec policy such as storage schema,
distribution representations, and policy specification languages used
to configure IPsec-enabled endpoints. The information model
described in this document models the configuration parameters
defined by IPSec. The information model also covers the parameters
found by the Internet Key Exchange protocol (IKE). Other key
exchange protocols could easily be added to the information model by
a simple extension. Further extensions can further be added easily
due to the object-oriented nature of the model.
This information model is based upon the core policy classes as
defined in the Policy Core Information Model (PCIM) and in the Policy
Core Information Model Extensions (PCIMe).

1. Introduction
IP security (IPsec) policy may assume a variety of forms as it
travels from storage, to distribution, to decision points. At each
step, it needs to be represented in a way that is convenient for the
current task. For example, the policy could exist as, but is not
limited to:
o A Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) [LDAP] schema in a
directory.
o An on-the-wire representation over a transport protocol like the
Common Object Policy Service (COPS) [COPS, COPSPR].
Jason, et al. Standards Track [Page 3]
RFC 3585 IPsec Configuration Policy Model August 2003
o A text-based policy specification language suitable for editing by
an administrator.
o An Extensible Markup Language (XML) document.
Each of these task-specific representations should be derived from a
canonical representation that precisely specifies the content and
semantics of the IPsec policy. This document captures this concept
and introduces a task-independent canonical representation for IPsec
policies.
This document focuses mainly on the existing protocols [COMP, ESP,
AH, DOI, IKE]. The model can easily be extended if needed due to its
object-oriented nature.
This document is organized as follows:
o Section 2 provides a quick introduction to the Unified Modeling
Language (UML) graphical notation conventions used in this
document.
o Section 3 provides the inheritance hierarchy that describes where
the IPsec policy classes fit into the policy class hierarchy
already defined by the Policy Core Information Model (PCIM) and
Policy Core Information Model Extensions (PCIMe).
o Sections 4 through 8 describe the classes that make up the IPsec
policy model.
o Section 9 presents the implementation requirements for the classes
in the model (i.e., the MUST/MAY/SHOULD status).
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in [KEYWORDS].
2. UML Conventions
For this document, a UML static class diagram was chosen as the
canonical representation for the IPsec policy model, because UML
provides a graphical, task-independent way to model systems. A
treatise on the graphical notation used in UML is beyond the scope of
this paper. However, given the use of ASCII drawing for UML static
class diagrams, a description of the notational conventions used in
this document is in order:
Jason, et al. Standards Track [Page 4]
RFC 3585 IPsec Configuration Policy Model August 2003
o Boxes represent classes, with class names in brackets ([])
representing an abstract class.
o A line that terminates with an arrow (<, >, ^, v) denotes
inheritance. The arrow always points to the parent class.
Inheritance can also be called generalization or specialization
(depending upon the reference point). A base class is a
generalization of a derived class, and a derived class is a
specialization of a base class.
o Associations are used to model a relationship between two classes.
Classes that share an association are connected using a line. A
special kind of association is also used: an aggregation. An
aggregation models a whole-part relationship between two classes.
Associations, and therefore aggregations, are also modeled as
classes.
o A line that begins with an "o" denotes aggregation. Aggregation
denotes containment in which the contained class and the
containing class have independent lifetimes.
o At each end of a line representing an association appears a
cardinality (i.e., each association has 2 cardinalities).
Cardinalities indicate the constraints on the number of object
instances in a set of relationships. The cardinality on a given
end of an association indicates the number of different object
instances of that class that may be associated with a single
object instance of the class on the other end of the association.
The cardinality may be:
- a range in the form "lower bound..upper bound" indicating the
minimum and maximum number of objects.
- a number that indicates the exact number of objects.
- an asterisk indicating any number of objects, including zero.
An asterisk is shorthand for 0..n.
- the letter n indicating from 1 to many. The letter n is
shorthand for 1..n.
o A class that has an association may have a "w" next to the line
representing the association. This is called a weak association
and is discussed in [PCIM].
It should be noted that the UML static class diagram presented is a
conceptual view of IPsec policy designed to aid in understanding. It
does not necessarily get translated class for class into another
Jason, et al. Standards Track [Page 5]
RFC 3585 IPsec Configuration Policy Model August 2003
representation. For example, an LDAP implementation may flatten out
the representation to fewer classes (because of the inefficiency of
following references).
3. IPsec Policy Model Inheritance Hierarchy
Like PCIM and PCIMe, the IPsec Configuration Policy Model derives
from and uses classes defined in the DMTF [DMTF] Common Information
Model (CIM). The following tree represents the inheritance hierarchy
for the IPsec Policy Model classes and how they fit into PCIM, PCIMe
and the other DMTF models (see Appendices for descriptions of classes
that are not being introduced as part of IPsec model). CIM classes
that are not used as a superclass to derive new classes, but are used
only as references, are not included in this inheritance hierarchy,
but can be found in the appropriate DMTF document: Core Model
[CIMCORE], User Model [CIMUSER] or, Network Model [CIMNETWORK].

A PolicyGroup represents the set of policies that are used on an
interface. This PolicyGroup SHOULD be associated either directly
with the IPProtocolEndpoint class instance that represents the
interface (via the IPsecPolicyForEndpoint association) or indirectly
(via the IPsecPolicyForSystem association) associated with the System
that hosts the interface.
The IKE and IPsec rules are used to build or to negotiate the IPsec
Security Association Database (SADB). The IPsec rules represent the
Security Policy Database. The SADB itself is not modeled by this
document.
The IKE and IPsec rules can be described as (also see section 6 about
actions):
o An egress unprotected packet will first be checked against the
IPsec rules. If a match is found, the SADB will be checked. If
there is no corresponding IPsec SA in the SADB, and if IKE
negotiation is required by the IPsec rule, the corresponding IKE
rules will be used. The negotiated or preconfigured SA will then
be installed in the SADB.
o An ingress unprotected packet will first be checked against the
IPsec rules. If a match is found, the SADB will be checked for a
corresponding IPsec SA. If there is no corresponding IPsec SA and
a preconfigured SA exists, this preconfigured SA will be installed
in the IPsec SADB. This behavior should only apply to bypass and
discard actions.
o An ingress protected packet will first be checked against the
IPsec rules. If a match is found, the SADB will be checked for a
corresponding IPsec SA. If there is no corresponding IPsec SA and
a preconfigured SA exists, this preconfigured SA will be installed
in the IPsec SADB.
o An ingress IKE negotiation packet, which is not part of an
existing IKE SA, will be checked against the IKE rules. The
SACondition for the IKERule will usually be composed of a
PeerIDPayloadFilterEntry (typically for an aggressive mode IKE
Jason, et al. Standards Track [Page 12]
RFC 3585 IPsec Configuration Policy Model August 2003
negotiation) or an IPHeadersFilter. The negotiated SA will then
be installed in the SADB.
It is expected that when an IKE negotiation is required to be
initiated by an IPsec rule, the set of IKE rules will be checked.
The IKE rules check will be based on the outgoing IKE packet using
IPHeadersFilter entries (typically using the HdrDstAddress property).
4.1. The Class SARule
The class SARule serves as a base class for IKERule and IPsecRule.
Even though the class is concrete, it MUST not be instantiated. It
defines a common connection point for associations to conditions and
actions for both types of rules. Through its derivation from
PolicyRule, an SARule (and therefore IKERule and IPsecRule) also has
the PolicyRuleValidityPeriod association.
Each SARule in a valid PolicyGroup MUST have a unique associated
priority number in the PolicySetComponent.Priority. The class
definition for SARule is as follows:
NAME SARule
DESCRIPTION A base class for IKERule and IPsecRule.

For a description of these properties, see [PCIM] and [PCIME].
In SARule subclass instances:
- if the property Mandatory exists, it MUST be set to "true".
- if the property SequencedActions exists, it MUST be set to
"mandatory".
Jason, et al. Standards Track [Page 13]
RFC 3585 IPsec Configuration Policy Model August 2003
- the property PolicyRoles is not used in the device-level model.
- if the property PolicyDecisionStrategy exists, it must be set to
"FirstMatching".
4.1.2. The Property ExecutionStrategy
The ExecutionStrategy properties in the PolicyRule subclasses (and in
the CompoundPolicyAction class) determine the behavior of the
contained actions. It defines the strategy to be used in executing
the sequenced actions aggregated by a rule or a compound action. In
the case of actions within a rule, the PolicyActionInSARule
aggregation is used to collect the actions into an ordered set; in
the case of a compound action, the PolicyActionInPolicyAction
aggregation is used to collect the actions into an ordered subset.
There are three execution strategies: do until success, do all, and
do until failure.
"Do Until Success" causes the execution of actions according to the
ActionOrder property in the aggregation instances until a successful
execution of a single action. These actions may be evaluated to
determine if they are appropriate to execute rather than blindly
trying each of the actions until one succeeds. For an initiator,
they are tried in the ActionOrder until the list is exhausted or one
completes successfully. For example, an IKE initiator may have
several IKEActions for the same SACondition. The initiator will try
all IKEActions in the order defined by ActionOrder. I.e., it will
possibly try several phase 1 negotiations with different modes (main
mode then aggressive mode) and/or with multiple IKE peers. For a
responder, when there is more than one action in the rule with "do
until success" condition clause, this provides alternative actions
depending on the received proposals. For example, the same IKERule
may be used to handle aggressive mode and main mode negotiations with
different actions. The responder uses the first appropriate action
in the list of actions.
"Do All" causes the execution of all the actions in the aggregated
set according to their defined order. The execution continues
regardless of failures.
"Do Until Failure" causes the execution of all actions according to a
predefined order until the first failure in execution of an action
instance. Please note that if all actions are successful, then the
aggregated result is a failure. This execution strategy is inherited
from [PCIME] and is not expected to be of any use for IPsec
configuration.
Jason, et al. Standards Track [Page 14]
RFC 3585 IPsec Configuration Policy Model August 2003
For example, in a nested SAs case, the actions of an initiator's rule
might be structured as:
IPsecRule.ExecutionStrategy='Do All'
|
+---1--- IPsecTunnelAction // set up SA from host to gateway
|
+---2--- IPsecTransportAction // set up SA from host through
// tunnel to remote host
Another example, showing a rule with fallback actions might be
structured as:
IPsecRule.ExecutionStrategy='Do Until Success'
|
+---6--- IPsecTransportAction // negotiate SA with peer
|
+---9--- IPsecBypassAction // but if you must, allow in the clear
The CompoundPolicyAction class (See [PCIME]) may be used in
constructing the actions of IKE and IPsec rules when those rules
specify both multiple actions and fallback actions. The
ExecutionStrategy property in CompoundPolicyAction is used in
conjunction with that in the PolicyRule.
For example, in nesting SAs with a fallback security gateway, the
actions of a rule might be structured as:
IPsecRule.ExecutionStrategy='Do All'
|
+---1--- CompoundPolicyAction.ExecutionStrategy='Do Until Success'
| |
| +---1--- IPsecTunnelAction // set up SA from host to
| | // gateway1
| |
| +---2--- IPsecTunnelAction // or set up SA to gateway2
|
+---2--- IPsecTransportAction // then set up SA from host
// through tunnel to remote
// host
In the case of "Do All", a couple of actions can be executed
successfully before a subsequent action fails. In this case, some
IKE or IPsec actions may have resulted in SAs creation. Even if the
net effect of the aggregated actions is failure, those created SAs
MAY be kept or MAY be deleted.
Jason, et al. Standards Track [Page 15]
RFC 3585 IPsec Configuration Policy Model August 2003
In the case of "Do All", the IPsec selectors to be used during IPsec
SA negotiation are:
- for the last IPsecAction of the aggregation (i.e., usually the
innermost IPsec SA): this is the combination of the
IPHeadersFilter class and of the Granularity property of the
IPsecAction.
- for all other IPsecActions of the aggregation: the selector is the
source IP address which is the local IP address, and the
destination IP address is the PeerGateway IP address of the
following IPsecAction of the "Do All" aggregation. NB: the
granularity is IP address to IP address.
If the above behavior is not desirable, the alternative is to define
several SARules, one for each IPsec SA to be built. This will allow
the definition of specific IPsec selectors for all IPsecActions.
4.1.3 The Property LimitNegotiation
The property LimitNegotiation is used as part of processing either an
IKE or an IPsec rule.
Before proceeding with a phase 1 negotiation, this property is
checked to determine whether the negotiation role of the rule matches
that defined for the negotiation being undertaken (e.g., Initiator,
Responder, or Both). If this check fails (e.g., the current role is
IKE responder, while the rule specifies IKE initiator), then the IKE
negotiation is stopped. Note that this only applies to new IKE phase
1 negotiations and has no effect on either renegotiation or refresh
operations with peers for which an established SA already exists.
Before proceeding with a phase 2 negotiation, the LimitNegotiation
property of the IPsecRule is first checked to determine if the
negotiation role indicated for the rule matches that of the current
negotiation (Initiator, Responder, or Either). Note that this limit
applies only to new phase 2 negotiations. It is ignored when an
attempt is made to refresh an expiring SA (either side can initiate a
refresh operation). The IKE system can determine that the
negotiation is a refresh operation by checking to see if the selector
information matches that of an existing SA. If LimitNegotiation does
not match and the selector corresponds to a new SA, the negotiation
is stopped.

IKEAction), and the IdentityContexts specifies a unique identity.
The IdentityContexts property specifies the context to select the
relevant IKE identity to be used during the further IKEAction. A
context may be a VPN name or other identifier for selecting the
appropriate identity for use on the protected IPProtocolEndpoint (or
collection of IPProtocolEndpoints).
IdentityContexts is an array of strings. The multiple values in the
array are logically ORed together in evaluating the IdentityContexts.
Each value in the array may be the composition of multiple context
names. So, a single value may be a single context name (e.g.,
"CompanyXVPN"), or it may be combination of contexts. When an array
value is a composition, the individual values are logically ANDed
together for evaluation purposes and the syntax is:
<ContextName>[&&<ContextName>]*
where the individual context names appear in alphabetical order
(according to the collating sequence for UCS-2). So, for example,
Jason, et al. Standards Track [Page 17]
RFC 3585 IPsec Configuration Policy Model August 2003
the values "CompanyXVPN", "CompanyYVPN&&TopSecret",
"CompanyZVPN&&Confidential" means that, for the appropriate
IPProtocolEndpoint and IdentityType, the contexts are matched if the
identity specifies "CompanyXVPN", "CompanyYVPN&&TopSecret", or
"CompanyZVPN&&Confidential".
The property is defined as follows:
NAME IdentityContexts
DESCRIPTION Specifies the context in which to select the IKE
identity.

5.1. The Class SACondition
The class SACondition defines the conditions of rules for IKE and
IPsec negotiations. Conditions are associated with policy rules via
the SAConditionInRule aggregation. It is used as an anchor point to
associate various types of filters with policy rules via the
FilterOfSACondition association. It also defines whether Credentials
can be accepted for a particular policy rule via the
AcceptCredentialsFrom association.
Associated objects represent components of the condition that may or
may not apply at a given rule evaluation. For example, an
AcceptCredentialsFrom evaluation is only performed when a credential
is available to be evaluated against the list of trusted credential
management services. Similarly, a PeerIDPayloadFilterEntry may only
be evaluated when an IDPayload value is available to compare with the
filter. Condition components that do not have corresponding values
with which to evaluate are evaluated as TRUE unless the protocol has
completed without providing the required information.
The class definition for SACondition is as follows:
NAME SACondition
DESCRIPTION Defines the preconditions for IKE and IPsec
negotiations.
DERIVED FROM PolicyCondition (see [PCIM])
ABSTRACT FALSE
PROPERTIES PolicyConditionName (from PolicyCondition)
5.2. The Class IPHeadersFilter
The class IPHeadersFilter is defined in [PCIME] with the following
note:
1) to specify 5-tuple filters that are to apply symmetrically (i.e.,
matches traffic in both directions of the same flows which is
quite typical for SPD entries for ingress and egress traffic), the
Direction property of the FilterList SHOULD be set to "Mirrored".
5.3. The Class CredentialFilterEntry
The class CredentialFilterEntry defines an equivalence class that
match credentials of IKE peers. Each CredentialFilterEntry includes
a MatchFieldName that is interpreted according to the
CredentialManagementService(s) associated with the SACondition
(AcceptCredentialsFrom).
Jason, et al. Standards Track [Page 23]
RFC 3585 IPsec Configuration Policy Model August 2003
These credentials can be X.509 certificates, Kerberos tickets, or
other types of credentials obtained during the Phase 1 exchange.
Note: this filter entry will probably be checked while the IKE
negotiation takes place. If the check is a failure, then the IKE
negotiation MUST be stopped, and the result of the IKEAction which
triggered this negotiation is a failure.
The class definition for CredentialFilterEntry is as follows:
NAME CredentialFilterEntry
DESCRIPTION Specifies a match filter based on the IKE
credentials.
DERIVED FROM FilterEntryBase (see [CIMNETWORK])
ABSTRACT FALSE
PROPERTIES Name (from FilterEntryBase)
IsNegated (from FilterEntryBase)

CredentialType
5.3.1. The Property MatchFieldName
The property MatchFieldName specifies the sub-part of the credential
to match against MatchFieldValue. The property is defined as
follows:
NAME MatchFieldName
DESCRIPTION Specifies which sub-part of the credential to match.
SYNTAX string
VALUE This is the string representation of a X.509
certificate attribute, e.g.:
- "serialNumber"
- "signatureAlgorithm"
- "issuerName"
- "subjectName"
- "subjectAltName"
- ...
5.3.2. The Property MatchFieldValue
The property MatchFieldValue specifies the value to compare with the
MatchFieldName in a credential to determine if the credential matches
this filter entry. The property is defined as follows:
NAME MatchFieldValue
DESCRIPTION Specifies the value to be matched by the
MatchFieldName.
Jason, et al. Standards Track [Page 24]
RFC 3585 IPsec Configuration Policy Model August 2003
SYNTAX string
VALUE NB: If the CredentialFilterEntry corresponds to a
DistinguishedName, this value in the CIM class is
represented by an ordinary string value. However, an
implementation must convert this string to a DER-
encoded string before matching against the values
extracted from credentials at runtime.
A wildcard mechanism may be used for MatchFieldNames that contain
character strings. The MatchFieldValue may contain a wildcard
character, '*', in the pattern match specification. For example, if
the MatchFieldName is "subjectName", then a MatchFieldValue of
"cn=*,ou=engineering,o=foo,c=be" will successfully match a
certificate whose subject attribute is "cn=Jane
Doe,ou=engineering,o=foo,c=be". The wildcard character can be used
to represent 0 or more characters as would be displayed to the user
(i.e., a wildcard pattern match operates on displayable character
boundaries).
5.3.3. The Property CredentialType
The property CredentialType specifies the particular type of
credential that is being matched. The property is defined as
follows:
NAME CredentialType
DESCRIPTION Defines the type of IKE credentials.
SYNTAX unsigned 16-bit integer
VALUE 1 - X.509 Certificate
2 - Kerberos Ticket
5.4. The Class IPSOFilterEntry
The class IPSOFilterEntry is used to match traffic based on the IP
Security Options [IPSO] header values (ClassificationLevel and
ProtectionAuthority) as defined in RFC 1108. This type of filter
entry is used to adjust the IPsec encryption level according to the
IPSO classification of the traffic (e.g., secret, confidential,
restricted, etc.) The class definition for IPSOFilterEntry is as
follows:
NAME IPSOFilterEntry
DESCRIPTION Specifies the a match filter based on IP Security
Options.

authority). The property is defined as follows:
NAME MatchConditionType
DESCRIPTION Specifies the IPSO header field to be matched.
SYNTAX unsigned 16-bit integer
VALUE 1 - ClassificationLevel
2 - ProtectionAuthority
5.4.2. The Property MatchConditionValue
The property MatchConditionValue specifies the value of the IPSO
header field to be matched against. The property is defined as
follows:
NAME MatchConditionValue
DESCRIPTION Specifies the value of the IPSO header field to be
matched against.
SYNTAX unsigned 16-bit integer
VALUE The values MUST be one of values listed in RFC 1108
(or any further IANA Assigned Numbers document).
Some examples for ClassificationLevel are:
61 - TopSecret
90 - Secret
150 - Confidential
171 - Unclassified
For ProtectionAuthority, some examples are:
0 - GENSER
1 - SIOP-ESI
2 - SCI
3 - NSA
4 - DOE
5.5. The Class PeerIDPayloadFilterEntry
The class PeerIDPayloadFilterEntry defines filters used to match ID
payload values from the IKE protocol exchange.
PeerIDPayloadFilterEntry permits the specification of certain ID
payload values such as "*@example.com" or "192.0.2.0/24".
Jason, et al. Standards Track [Page 26]
RFC 3585 IPsec Configuration Policy Model August 2003
Obviously this filter applies only to IKERules when acting as a
responder. Moreover, this filter can be applied immediately in the
case of aggressive mode but its application is to be delayed in the
case of main mode. The class definition for PeerIDPayloadFilterEntry
is as follows:
NAME PeerIDPayloadFilterEntry
DESCRIPTION Specifies a match filter based on IKE identity.
DERIVED FROM FilterEntryBase (see [CIMNETWORK])
ABSTRACT FALSE
PROPERTIES Name (from FilterEntryBase)

follows:
NAME MatchIdentityType
DESCRIPTION Specifies the ID payload type.
SYNTAX unsigned 16-bit integer
VALUE Consult [DOI] for valid values.
5.5.2. The Property MatchIdentityValue
The property MatchIdentityValue specifies the filter value for
comparison with the ID payload, e.g., "*@example.com". The property
is defined as follows:
NAME MatchIdentityValue
DESCRIPTION Specifies the ID payload value.
SYNTAX string
VALUE NB: The syntax may need to be converted for
comparison. If the PeerIDPayloadFilterEntry type is
a DistinguishedName, the name in the
MatchIdentityValue property is represented by an
ordinary string value, but this value must be
converted into a DER-encoded string before matching
against the values extracted from IKE ID payloads at
runtime. The same applies to IPv4 & IPv6 addresses.
Jason, et al. Standards Track [Page 27]
RFC 3585 IPsec Configuration Policy Model August 2003
Different wildcard mechanisms can be used depending on the ID
payload:
- a MatchIdentityValue of "*@example.com" will match a user FQDN ID
payload of "JDOE@EXAMPLE.COM".
- a MatchIdentityValue of "*.example.com" will match a FQDN ID
payload of "WWW.EXAMPLE.COM".
- a MatchIdentityValue of "cn=*,ou=engineering,o=company,c=us" will
match a DER DN ID payload of "cn=John
Doe,ou=engineering,o=company,c=us".
- a MatchIdentityValue of "193.190.125.0/24" will match an IPv4
address ID payload of 193.190.125.10.
- a MatchIdentityValue of "193.190.125.*" will also match an IPv4
address ID payload of 193.190.125.10.
The above wildcard mechanisms MUST be supported for all ID payloads
supported by the local IKE entity. The character '*' replaces 0 or
multiple instances of any character as restricted by the type
specified by MatchIdentityType.
5.6. The Association Class FilterOfSACondition
The class FilterOfSACondition associates an SACondition with the
filter specifications (FilterList) that make up the condition. The
class definition for FilterOfSACondition is as follows:
NAME FilterOfSACondition
DESCRIPTION Associates a condition with the filter list that
makes up the individual condition elements.

5.7. The Association Class AcceptCredentialFrom
The class AcceptCredentialFrom specifies which credential management
services (e.g., a CertificateAuthority or a Kerberos service) are to
be trusted to certify peer credentials. This is used to assure that
the credential being matched in the CredentialFilterEntry is a valid
credential that has been supplied by an approved
CredentialManagementService. If a CredentialManagementService is
specified and a corresponding CredentialFilterEntry is used, but the
credential supplied by the peer is not certified by that
CredentialManagementService (or one of the
CredentialManagementServices in its trust hierarchy), the
CredentialFilterEntry is deemed not to match. If a credential is
certified by a CredentialManagementService in the
AcceptCredentialsFrom list of services, but there is no
CredentialFilterEntry, this is considered equivalent to a
CredentialFilterEntry that matches all credentials from those
services.
The class definition for AcceptCredentialFrom is as follows:

services to be trusted.

6.1. The Class SAAction
The class SAAction is abstract and serves as the base class for IKE

NAME SAAction
DESCRIPTION The base class for IKE and IPsec actions.
DERIVED FROM PolicyAction (see [PCIM])
ABSTRACT TRUE
PROPERTIES PolicyActionName (from PolicyAction)
DoActionLogging
DoPacketLogging
6.1.1. The Property DoActionLogging
The property DoActionLogging specifies whether a log message is to be
generated when the action is performed. This applies for
SANegotiationActions with the meaning of logging a message when the
negotiation is attempted (with the success or failure result). This
also applies for SAStaticAction only for PreconfiguredSAAction with
the meaning of logging a message when the preconfigured SA is
actually installed in the SADB. The property is defined as follows:
NAME DoActionLogging
DESCRIPTION Specifies the whether to log when the action is
performed.
SYNTAX boolean
VALUE true - a log message is to be generated when action
is performed.
false - no log message is to be generated when action
is performed.
Jason, et al. Standards Track [Page 32]
RFC 3585 IPsec Configuration Policy Model August 2003
6.1.2. The Property DoPacketLogging
The property DoPacketLogging specifies whether a log message is to be
generated when the resulting security association is used to process
the packet. If the SANegotiationAction successfully executes and
results in the creation of one or several security associations, or
if the PreconfiguredSAAction executes, the value of DoPacketLogging
SHOULD be propagated to an optional field of SADB. This optional
field should be used to decide whether a log message is to be
generated when the SA is used to process a packet. For
SAStaticActions, a log message is to be generated when the
IPsecBypassAction, IPsecDiscardAction, or IKERejectAction are
executed. The property is defined as follows:
NAME DoPacketLogging
DESCRIPTION Specifies whether to log when the resulting
security association is used to process the packet.
SYNTAX boolean
VALUE true - a log message is to be generated when the
resulting security association is used to process the
packet.
false - no log message is to be generated.
6.2. The Class SAStaticAction
The class SAStaticAction is abstract and serves as the base class for
IKE and IPsec actions that do not require any negotiation. The class
definition for SAStaticAction is as follows:
NAME SAStaticAction
DESCRIPTION The base class for IKE and IPsec actions that do not
require any negotiation.
DERIVED FROM SAAction
ABSTRACT TRUE
PROPERTIES LifetimeSeconds
6.2.1. The Property LifetimeSeconds
The property LifetimeSeconds specifies how long the security
association derived from this action should be used. The property is
defined as follows:
NAME LifetimeSeconds
DESCRIPTION Specifies the amount of time (in seconds) that a
security association derived from this action should
be used.
SYNTAX unsigned 64-bit integer
Jason, et al. Standards Track [Page 33]
RFC 3585 IPsec Configuration Policy Model August 2003
VALUE A value of zero indicates that there is not a
lifetime associated with this action (i.e., infinite
lifetime). A non-zero value is typically used in
conjunction with alternate SAActions performed when
there is a negotiation failure of some sort.
Note: if the referenced SAStaticAction object is a
PreconfiguredSAAction associated to several SATransforms, then the
actual lifetime of the preconfigured SA will be the lesser of the
value of this LifetimeSeconds property and of the value of the
MaxLifetimeSeconds property of the associated SATransform. If the
value of this LifetimeSeconds property is zero, then there will be no
lifetime associated to this SA.
Note: while some SA negotiation protocols [IKE] can negotiate the
lifetime as an arbitrary length field, the authors have assumed that
a 64-bit integer will be sufficient.
It is expected that most SAStaticAction instances will have their
LifetimeSeconds properties set to zero (meaning no expiration of the
resulting SA).
6.3. The Class IPsecBypassAction
The class IPsecBypassAction is used when packets are allowed to be
processed without applying IPsec encapsulation to them. This is the
same as stating that packets are allowed to flow in the clear. The
class definition for IPsecBypassAction is as follows:
NAME IPsecBypassAction
DESCRIPTION Specifies that packets are to be allowed to pass in
the clear.
DERIVED FROM SAStaticAction
ABSTRACT FALSE
6.4. The Class IPsecDiscardAction
The class IPsecDiscardAction is used when packets are to be
discarded. This is the same as stating that packets are to be
denied. The class definition for IPsecDiscardAction is as follows:

6.5. The Class IKERejectAction
The class IKERejectAction is used to prevent attempting an IKE
negotiation with the peer(s). The main use of this class is to
prevent some denial of service attacks when acting as IKE responder.
It goes beyond a plain discard of UDP/500 IKE packets because the
SACondition can be based on specific PeerIDPayloadFilterEntry (when
aggressive mode is used). The class definition for IKERejectAction
is as follows:
NAME IKERejectAction
DESCRIPTION Specifies that an IKE negotiation should not even be
attempted or continued.
DERIVED FROM SAStaticAction
ABSTRACT FALSE
6.6. The Class PreconfiguredSAAction
The class PreconfiguredSAAction is used to create a security
association using preconfigured, hard-wired algorithms and keys.
Notes:
- the SPI for a PreconfiguredSAAction is contained in the
association, TransformOfPreconfiguredAction;
- the session key (if applicable) is contained in an instance of the
class SharedSecret (see [CIMUSER]). The session key is stored in
the property Secret, the property protocol contains either "ESP-
encrypt", "ESP-auth" or "AH", the property algorithm contains the
algorithm used to protect the secret (can be "PLAINTEXT" if the
IPsec entity has no secret storage), the value of property
RemoteID is the concatenation of the remote IPsec peer IP address
in dotted decimal, of the character "/", of "IN" (respectively
"OUT") for inbound SA (respectively outbound SA), of the character
"/", and of the hexadecimal representation of the SPI.
Although the class is concrete, it MUST not be instantiated. The
class definition for PreconfiguredSAAction is as follows:

DESCRIPTION Specifies preconfigured algorithm and keying
information for creation of a security association.

that can be consumed before the SA is deleted. The property is
defined as follows:
NAME LifetimeKilobytes
DESCRIPTION Specifies the SA lifetime in kilobytes.
SYNTAX unsigned 64-bit integer
VALUE A value of zero indicates that there is not a
lifetime associated with this action (i.e., infinite
lifetime). A non-zero value is used to indicate that
after this number of kilobytes has been consumed the
SA must be deleted from the SADB.
Note: the actual lifetime of the preconfigured SA will be the lesser
of the value of this LifetimeKilobytes property and of the value of
the MaxLifetimeSeconds property of the associated SATransform. If
the value of this LifetimeKilobytes property is zero, then there will
be no lifetime associated with this action.
Note: while some SA negotiation protocols [IKE] can negotiate the
lifetime as an arbitrary length field, the authors have assumed that
a 64-bit integer will be sufficient.
It is expected that most PreconfiguredSAAction instances will have
their LifetimeKilobyte properties set to zero (meaning no expiration
of the resulting SA).
6.7. The Class PreconfiguredTransportAction
The class PreconfiguredTransportAction is used to create an IPsec
transport-mode security association using preconfigured, hard-wired
algorithms and keys. The class definition for
PreconfiguredTransportAction is as follows:

6.9. The Class SANegotiationAction
The class SANegotiationAction specifies an action requesting security
policy negotiation.
This is an abstract class. Currently, only one security policy
negotiation protocol action is subclassed from SANegotiationAction:
the IKENegotiationAction class. It is nevertheless expected that
other security policy negotiation protocols will exist and the
negotiation actions of those new protocols would be modeled as a
subclass of SANegotiationAction.

PROPERTIES MinLifetimeSeconds
MinLifetimeKilobytes
IdleDurationSeconds
6.10.1. The Property MinLifetimeSeconds
The property MinLifetimeSeconds specifies the minimum seconds in a
lifetime that will be accepted from the peer. MinLifetimeSeconds is
used to prevent certain denial of service attacks where the peer
requests an arbitrarily low lifetime value, causing renegotiations
with expensive Diffie-Hellman operations. The property is defined as
follows:
NAME MinLifetimeSeconds
DESCRIPTION Specifies the minimum seconds acceptable in a
lifetime.
SYNTAX unsigned 64-bit integer
VALUE A value of zero indicates that there is no minimum
value. A non-zero value specifies the minimum
seconds lifetime.
Note: while IKE can negotiate the lifetime as an arbitrary length
field, the authors have assumed that a 64-bit integer will be
sufficient.
6.10.2. The Property MinLifetimeKilobytes
The property MinLifetimeKilobytes specifies the minimum kilobytes of
a lifetime that will be accepted from the peer. MinLifetimeKilobytes
is used to prevent certain denial of service attacks, where the peer
requests an arbitrarily low lifetime value, causing renegotiations
with correspondingly expensive Diffie-Hellman operations. Note that
there has been considerable debate regarding the usefulness of
applying kilobyte lifetimes to IKE phase 1 security associations, so
it is likely that this property will only apply to the sub-class
IPsecAction. The property is defined as follows:

sufficient.
6.10.3. The Property IdleDurationSeconds
The property IdleDurationSeconds specifies how many seconds a
security association may remain idle (i.e., no traffic protected
using the security association) before it is deleted. The property
is defined as follows:
NAME IdleDurationSeconds
DESCRIPTION Specifies how long, in seconds, a security
association may remain unused before it is deleted.
SYNTAX unsigned 64-bit integer
VALUE A value of zero indicates that idle detection should
not be used for the security association (only the
seconds and kilobyte lifetimes will be used). Any
non-zero value indicates the number of seconds the
security association may remain unused.
6.11. The Class IPsecAction
The class IPsecAction serves as the base class for IPsec transport

This portion of the model contains additional information that is
useful in applying the policy. The IKEService class MAY be used to
represent the IKE negotiation function in a system. The IKEService
uses the various tables that contain information about IKE peers as
well as the configuration for specifying security associations that
are started automatically. The information in the PeerGateway,
PeerIdentityTable and related classes is necessary to completely
specify the policies.
An interface (represented by an IPProtocolEndpoint) has an IKEService
that provides the negotiation services for that interface. That
service MAY also have a list of security associations automatically
started at the time the IKE service is initialized.
The IKEService also has a set of identities that it may use in
negotiations with its peers. Those identities are associated with
the interfaces (or collections of interfaces).

set is currently active for the associated IKEService. That is, at
boot time, the active configuration is used to automatically start
IKE negotiations and create static SAs. The property is defined as
follows:
NAME Active
DESCRIPTION Active indicates whether the
AutostartIKEConfiguration set is currently active for
the associated IKEService.
SYNTAX boolean
Jason, et al. Standards Track [Page 76]

10. Security Considerations
This document only describes an information model for IPsec policy.
It does not detail security requirements for storage or delivery of
said information.
Physical models derived from this information model MUST implement
the relevant security for storage and delivery. Most of the classes
(e.g., IpHeadersFilter, SAAction,...) MUST at least provided the
integrity service; other pieces of information MUST also receive the
confidentiality service (e.g., SharedSecret as described in the
classes PeerIdentityEntry and PreconfiguredSAAction).
11. Intellectual Property Statement
The IETF takes no position regarding the validity or scope of any
intellectual property or other rights that might be claimed to
pertain to the implementation or use of the technology described in
this document or the extent to which any license under such rights
might or might not be available; neither does it represent that it
has made any effort to identify any such rights. Information on the
IETF's procedures with respect to rights in standards-track and
standards-related documentation can be found in BCP-11.
Copies of claims of rights made available for publication and any
assurances of licenses to be made available, or the result of an
attempt made to obtain a general license or permission for the use of
such proprietary rights by implementers or users of this
specification can be obtained from the IETF Secretariat.
The IETF invites any interested party to bring to its attention any
copyrights, patents or patent applications, or other proprietary
rights which may cover technology that may be required to practice
this standard. Please address the information to the IETF Executive
Director.
