Title: Service Binding and Parameter Specification via the DNS (SVCB and HTTPS Resource Records) Author: B. Schwartz, M. Bishop, E. Nygren Status: Standards Track Stream: IETF Date: November 2023 Mailbox: i...@bemasc.net, mbis...@evequefou.be, erik+i...@nygren.org Pages: 47 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-dnsop-svcb-https-12.txt URL: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc9460 DOI: 10.17487/RFC9460 This document specifies the "SVCB" ("Service Binding") and "HTTPS" DNS resource record (RR) types to facilitate the lookup of information needed to make connections to network services, such as for HTTP origins. SVCB records allow a service to be provided from multiple alternative endpoints, each with associated parameters (such as transport protocol configuration), and are extensible to support future uses (such as keys for encrypting the TLS ClientHello). They also enable aliasing of apex domains, which is not possible with CNAME. The HTTPS RR is a variation of SVCB for use with HTTP (see RFC 9110, "HTTP Semantics"). By providing more information to the client before it attempts to establish a connection, these records offer potential benefits to both performance and privacy. This document is a product of the Domain Name System Operations Working Group of the IETF. This is now a Proposed Standard. STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements.
