This is essentially a stripped down - version of rpkid with no SQL database, no left-right - protocol implementation, and only the parent side of - the up-down protocol. It's separate because the root - is a special case in several ways and it was simpler - to keep the special cases out of the main daemon. - -irdbd.py A sample implementation of an IR database daemon. - rpkid calls into this to perform lookups via the - left-right protocol. - -irbe-cli.py A command-line client for the left-right control - protocol. - -irbe-setup.py An example of a script to set up the mappings between - the IRDB and rpkid's own database, using the - left-right control protocol. - -cronjob.py A trivial HTTP client used to drive rpkid cron events. - -testbed.py A test tool for running a collection of rpkid and irdb - instances under common control, driven by a unified - test script. - -testpoke.py A simple client for the up-down protocol, mostly - compatable with APNIC's rpki_poke.pl tool. - -Most of these programs take configuration files in a common format -similar to that used by the OpenSSL command line tool. The test -programs also take input in YAML format to drive the tests. Runs of -the testbed.py test tool will generate a fairly complete set -configuration files which may be useful as examples. - -Basic operation consists of creating the appropriate MySQL databases, -starting rpkid, rootd, and irdbd, using the left-right control -protocol to set up rpkid's internal state, and setting up a cron job -to invoke rpkid's cron action at regular intervals. All other -operations should occur either as a result of cron events or as a -result of incoming left-right and up-down protocol requests. - -Note that the publication protocol isn't fully specified yet, much -less implmenented. At the moment rpkid just writes its outputs to a -local directory tree. - -Note that the full event-driven model for rpkid hasn't yet been -implemented. The design is intended to allow an arbitrary number of -hosted RPKI engines to run in a single rpkid instance, but without the -event-driven tasking model one has to set up a separate rpkid instance -for each hosted RPKI engine. - -At present the daemon programs all run in foreground, that is, if one -wants them to run in background one must do so manually, eg, using -Bourne shell syntax: - - $ python whatever.py & - $ echo >whatever.pid "$!" - -All of the daemons use syslog. At present they all set LOG_PERROR, so -all logging also goes to stderr. - ----------------------------------------------------------------- - -rpkid.py: - -rpkid is the main RPKI engine daemon. Configuration of rpkid is a two -step process: a config file to bootstrap rpkid to the point where it -can speak using the left-right protocol, followed by dynamic -configuration via the left-right protocol. In production use the -latter stage would be handled by the IRBE stub; for test and -develoment purposes it's handled by the irbe-cli.py command line -interface or by the testbed.py test framework. - -rpkid stores dynamic data in an SQL database, which must have been -created for it, as explained in the installation guide. - -The default config file is rpkid.conf, start rpkid with "-c filename" -to choose a different config file. All options are in the section -"[rpkid]". Certificates, keys, and trust anchors may be in either DER -or PEM format. - -Config file options: - -startup-message: String to log on startup, useful when - debugging a collection of rpkid instances at - once. - -sql-username: Username to hand to MySQL when connecting to - rpkid's database. - -sql-database: MySQL's database name for rpkid's database. - -sql-password: Password to hand to MySQL when connecting to - rpkid's database. - -cms-ta-irdb: Name of file containing CMS trust anchor to - use when authenticating messages from irdbd. - -cms-ta-irbe: Name of file containing CMS trust anchor to - use when authenticating control messages from - IRBE. - -cms-key: Name of file containing RSA key to use when - signing CMS messages to IRBE or irdbd. - -cms-certs: Name(s) of file(s) containing certificate(s) - to include in CMS wrapper when signing - messages to IRBE or irdbd. You can specify - more than one certificate using OpenSSL-style - subscripts: cms-certs.0, cms-certs.1, etc. - -https-key: Name of file containing RSA key to use, both - in the HTTPS server role (for both up-down and - left-right protocols) and in the HTTPS client - role (left-right protocol only). - -https-certs: Name(s) of file(s) containing certificate(s) - to use in same contexts where https-key is - used. You can specify more than one - certificate using OpenSSL-style subscripts: - https-certs.0, https-certs.1, etc. - -https-ta: Name of file containing trust anchor to use - when verifying irdbd's HTTPS server - certificate. - -irdb-url: Service URL for irdbd. Must be a https:// URL. - -https-server-host: Hostname or IP address on which to listen for - HTTPS connections. Current default is - INADDR_ANY (IPv4 0.0.0.0); this will need to - be hacked to support IPv6 for production. - -https-server-port: TCP port on which to listen for HTTPS - connections. - -publication-kludge-base: [TEMPORARY] Local directory under which - generated certificates etc should be - published. This is a temporary expedient - until the publication protocol is defined and - implemented. Default is "publication/" - ----------------------------------------------------------------- - -rootd.py: - -rootd is a stripped down implmenetation of (only) the server side of -the up-down protocol. It's a separate program because the root -certificate of an RPKI certificate tree requires special handling and -may also require a special handling policy. rootd is a simple -implementation intended for test use, it's not suitable for use in a -production system. All configuration comes via the config file. - -The default config file is rootd.conf, start rootd with "-c filename" -to choose a different config file. All options are in the section -"[rootd]". Certificates, keys, and trust anchors may be in either DER -or PEM format. - -Config file options: - -cms-ta: Name of file containing trust anchor to use - when verifying CMS up-down queries. - -cms-key: Name of file containing RSA key to use when - signing CMS up-down replies. - -cms-certs: Name(s) of file(s) containing certificate(s) - to include in CMS wrapper when signing up-down - replies. You can specify more than one - certificate using OpenSSL-style subscripts: - cms-certs.0, cms-certs.1, etc. - -https-key: Name of file containing RSA key to use in the - HTTPS server role for the up-down protocol. - -https-certs: Name(s) of file(s) containing certificate(s) - to use in the HTTPS server role for the - up-down protocol. You can specify more than - one certificate using OpenSSL-style - subscripts: https-certs.0, https-certs.1, - etc. - -https-server-host: Hostname or IP address on which to listen for - HTTPS connections. Default is localhost. - -https-server-port: TCP port on which to listen for HTTPS - connections. - -rpki-key: Name of file containing RSA key to use in - signing resource certificates. - -rpki-issuer: Name of file containing self-signed root - resource certificate corresponding to - rpki-key. - -rpki-subject-filename: Name of file that rootd should use to save the - one and only certificate it issues. - -rpki-pkcs10-filename: Name of file that rootd should use when saving - a copy of the received PKCS #10 request for a - resource certificate. This is only used for - debugging. Default is not to save the PKCS - #10 request. - ----------------------------------------------------------------- - -irdbd.py: - -irdbd is a sample implemntation of the server side of the IRDB -callback subset of the left-right protocol. In production use this -service is a function of the IRBE stub; irdbd may be suitable for -production use in simple cases, but an IR with a complex IRDB may need -to extend or rewrite irdbd. - -irdbd requires a pre-populated database to represent the IR's -customers. irdbd expects this database to use the SQL schema defined -in docs/sample-irdb.sql. Once this database has been populated, the -IRBE stub needs to create the appropriate objects in rpkid's database -via the control subset of the left-right protocol, and store the -linkage IDs (foreign keys into rpkid's database, basicly) in the -IRDB. The irbe-setup.py program shows an example of how to do this. - -irdbd's default config file is irdbd.conf, start irdbd with "-c -filename" to choose a different config file. All options are in the -section "[irdbd]". Certificates, keys, and trust anchors may be in -either DER or PEM format. - -Config file options: - -startup-message: String to log on startup, useful when - debugging a collection of irdbd instances at - once. - -sql-username: Username to hand to MySQL when connecting to - irdbd's database. - -sql-database: MySQL's database name for irdbd's database. - -sql-password: Password to hand to MySQL when connecting to - irdbd's database. - -cms-ta: Name of file containing CMS trust anchor to - use when authenticating messages from rpkid. - -cms-key: Name of file containing RSA key to use when - signing CMS messages to rpkid. - -cms-certs: Name(s) of file(s) containing certificate(s) - to include in CMS wrapper when signing - messages to rpkid. You can specify more than - one certificate using OpenSSL-style - subscripts: cms-certs.0, cms-certs.1, etc. - -https-key: Name of file containing RSA key to use in the - HTTPS server role when listening for - connections from rpkid. - -https-certs: Name(s) of file(s) containing certificate(s) - to use in the HTTPS server role when listening - for connections from rpkid. You can specify - more than one certificate using OpenSSL-style - subscripts: https-certs.0, https-certs.1, etc. - -https-url: Service URL for irdbd. Must be a https:// URL. - ----------------------------------------------------------------- - -irbe-cli.py: - -irbe-cli is a simple command line client for the control subset of the -left-right protocol. In production use this functionality would be -part of the IRBE stub. - -Basic configuration of irbe-cli is handled via a config file. The -specific action or actions to be performed are specified on the -command line, and map closely to the left-right protocol itself. - -At present the user is assumed to be able to read the (XML) left-right -protocol messages, and with one exception, no attempt is made to -interpret the responses other than to check for errors. The one -exception is that, if the --pem_out option is specified on the command -line, any PKCS #10 requests received from rpkid will be written in PEM -format to that file; this makes it easier to hand these requests off -to the business PKI in order to issue signing certs corresponding to -newly generated business keys. - -Usage: irbe-cli.py --config= --help --pem_out= - - parent --action= --type= --tag= --self_id= --parent_id= - --bsc_id= --repository_id= --peer_contact_uri= - --sia_base= --sender_name= --recipient_name= - --cms_ta= --https_ta= --rekey --reissue --revoke - - repository --action= --type= --tag= --self_id= --repository_id= - --bsc_id= --peer_contact_uri= --cms_ta= --https_ta= - - self --action= --type= --tag= --self_id= --crl_interval= - --extension_preference= --rekey --reissue --revoke - --run_now --publish_world_now - --clear_extension_preferences - - child --action= --type= --tag= --self_id= --child_id= - --bsc_id= --cms_ta= --reissue - - route_origin --action= --type= --tag= --self_id= --route_origin_id= - --as_number= --ipv4= --ipv6= --suppress_publication - - bsc --action= --type= --tag= --self_id= --bsc_id= - --key_type= --hash_alg= --key_length= --signing_cert= - --generate_keypair --clear_signing_certs - -Global options (--config, --help, --pem_out) come first, then zero or -more commands (parent, repository, self, child, route_origin, bsc), -each followed by its own set of options. The commands map to -elements in the left-right protocol, and the command-specific options -map to attributes or subelements for those commands. - ---action is one of create, set, get, list, or destroy; exactly one of -these must be specified for each command. - ---type is query or reply; since irbe-cli is a client, query is the -default. - ---tag is an optional arbitrary tag (think IMAP) to simplify matching -up replies with batched queries. - ---*_id options refer to the primary keys of previously created -objects. - -The remaining options are specific to the particular commands, and -follow directly from the left-right protocol specification. - -A trailing "=" in the above option summary indicates that an option -takes a value, eg, "--action create" or "--action=create". Options -without a trailing "=" correspond to boolean control attributes. - -The default config file for irbe-cli is irbe.conf, start rpkid with -"-c filename" (or "--config filename") to choose a different config -file.

Once -rpkid has been converted to the planned event-driven model, this -function will be handled internally, but for now it has to be -triggered by an external program. For pseudo-production use one would -run this program under the system cron daemon. For scripted testing -it happens to be useful to be able to control when cron cycles occur, -so at the current stage of code development use of an external trigger -is a useful feature. - -The default config file is cronjob.conf, start cronjob with "-c -filename" to choose a different config file. All options are in the -section "[cronjob]". Certificates, keys, and trust anchors may be in -either DER or PEM format. - -Config file options: - -https-key: Name of file containing RSA key to use in the - HTTPS client role when contacting rpkid. - -https-certs: Name(s) of file(s) containing certificate(s) - to use in the HTTPS client role when - contacting rpkid. You can specify more than - one certificate using OpenSSL-style - subscripts: https-certs.0, https-certs.1, - etc. - -https-ta: Name of file containing trust anchor to use - when verifying rpkid's HTTPS server - certificate. - -https-url: Service URL for rpkid. Must be a https:// URL. - ----------------------------------------------------------------- - -testbed.py: - -testbed is a test harness to set up and run a collection of rpkid and -irdbd instances under scripted control. testbed is a very recent -addition to the toolset and is still evolving rapidly. - -Unlike the programs described above, testbed takes two configuration -files in different languages. The first configuration file uses the -same syntax as the above configuration files but is completely -optional. The second configuration file is the test script, which is -encoded using the YAML serialization language (see -http://www.yaml.org/ for more information on YAML). The YAML script -is not optional, as it describes the test layout. testbed is designed -to support running a fairly wide set of test configurations as canned -scripts without writing any new control code. The intent is to make -it possible to write meaningful regression tests. - -All of the options in in the first (optional) configuration file are -just overrides for wired-in default values. In most cases the -defaults will suffice, and the set of options is still in flux, so -only a few of the options are described here. The default name for -this configuration file is testbed.conf, run testbed with "-c -filename" to change it. - -testbed.conf options: - -testbed_dir: Working directory into which testbed should write the - (many) files it generates. Default is "testbed.dir". - -irdb_db_pass: MySQL password for the "irdb" user. Default is - "fnord". You may want to override this. - -rpki_db_pass: MySQL password for the "rpki" user. Default is - "fnord". You may want to override this. - -rootd_sia: rsync URI naming a (perhaps fictious) directory to use - as the id-ad-caRepository SIA value in the generated - root resource certificate. Default is - "rsync://wombat.invalid/". You may want to override - this if you intend to run an rsync server and test - against the generated results using rcynic. This - default will likely change if and when testbed learns - how to run rcynic itself as part of the test suite. - -The second configuration file is named testbed.yaml by default, run -testbed with "-y filename" to change it. The YAML file contains -multiple YAML "documents". The first document describes the initial -test layout and resource allocations, subsequent documents describe -modifications to the initial allocations and other parameters. -Resources listed in the initial layout are aggregated automatically, -so that a node in the resource hierarchy automatically receives the -resources it needs to issue whatever its children are listed as -holding. Actions in the subsequent documents are modifications to the -current resource set, modifications to validity dates or other -non-resource parameters, or special commands like "sleep". The -details are still evolving, but here's an example of current usage: - - name: RIR - #valid_until: 2008-07-14T12:30:00Z - valid_for: 2d - sia_base: "rsync://wombat.invalid/" - kids: - - name: LIR0 - kids: - - name: Alice - ipv4: 192.0.2.1-192.0.2.33 - asn: 64533 - --- - - name: Alice - valid_add: 10 - --- - - name: Alice - add_as: 33 - valid_add: 2d - # valid_until: 2009-07-14T12:30:00Z - --- - - name: Alice - # valid_until: 2009-04-01T00:00:00Z - valid_sub: 2d - --- - - name: Alice - # valid_until: 2009-04-01T00:00:00Z - valid_for: 10d - -This specifies an initial layout consisting of an RPKI engine named -"RIR", with one child "LIR0", which in turn has one child "Alice". -Alice has a set of assigned resources, and all resources in the system -are initially set to be valid for two days from the time at which the -test is started. The first subsequent document adds ten seconds to -the validity interval for Alice's resources and makes no other -modifications. The second subsequent document grants Alice additional -resources and adds another two days to the validity interval for -Alice's resources. The next document subtracts two days from the -validity interval for Alice's resources. The final document sets the -validity interval for Alice's resources to ten days. - -Operators in subsequent (update) documents: - - add_as, add_v4, add_v6: These add ASN, IPv4, or IPv6 - resources, respectively. - - sub_as, sub_v4, sub_v6: These subtract resources. - - valid_until: Set an absolute expiration date. - - valid_for: Set a relative expiration date. - - valid_add, valid_sub: Add to or subtract from validity interval. - - sleep [interval]: Sleep for specified interval, or until - testbed receives a SIGALRM signal. - -Absolute timestamps should be in the form shown (UTC timestamp format -as used in XML). - -Intervals (valid_add, valid_sub, valid_for, sleep) are either -integers, in which case they're interpreted as seconds, or are a -string of the form "wD xH yM zS" where w, x, y, and z are integers and -D, H, M, and S indicate days, hours, minutes, and seconds. In the -latter case all of the fields are optional, but at least one must be -specified. For example, "3D4H" means "three days plus four hours". - ----------------------------------------------------------------- - -testpoke.py: - -This is a command-line client for the up-down protocol. Unlike all of -the above programs, testpoke does not accept a config file in -OpenSSL-compatable format at all. Instead, it is configured -exclusively by a YAML script. testpoke's design was constrained by a -desire to have it be compatable with APNIC's rpki_poke.pl tool, so -that the two tools could use a common configuration language to -simplify scripted testing. There are minor variations due to slightly -different feature sets, but YAML files intended for one program will -usually work with the other. - -README for APNIC's tool describing the input language can be found at -http://mirin.apnic.net/svn/rpki_engine/branches/gary-poker/client/poke/README - -testpoke.py takes a simplified command line and uses only one YAML -input file. - -Usage: python testpoke.py [ { -y | --yaml } configfile ] - [ { -r | --request } requestname ] - [ { -h | --help } ] - -Default configuration file is testpoke.yaml, override with --yaml -option. - -The --request option specifies the specific command within the YAML -file to execute. - -Sample configuration file: - - --- - # $Id$ - - version: 1 - posturl: https://localhost:4433/up-down/1 - recipient-id: wombat - sender-id: "1" - - cms-cert-file: biz-certs/Frank-EE.cer - cms-key-file: biz-certs/Frank-EE.key - cms-ca-cert-file: biz-certs/Bob-Root.cer - cms-cert-chain-file: [ biz-certs/Frank-CA.cer ] - - ssl-cert-file: biz-certs/Frank-EE.cer - ssl-key-file: biz-certs/Frank-EE.key - ssl-ca-cert-file: biz-certs/Bob-Root.cer - - requests: - list: - type: list - issue: - type: issue - class: 1 - sia: [ "rsync://bandicoot.invalid/some/where/" ] - revoke: - type: revoke - class: 1 - ski: "CB5K6APY-4KcGAW9jaK_cVPXKX0" - -testpoke adds one extension to the language described in APNIC's -README: the cms-cert-chain-* and ssl-cert-chain-* options, which allow -one to specify a chain of intermediate certificates to be presented in -the CMS or TLS protocol.
