Standards Track [Page 2] RFC 4661 XML Based Format for Filtering September 2006 1. Introduction The SIP event notification framework [2] describes the usage of the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) for subscriptions and notifications of changes to a state of a resource. The document does not describe a mechanism whereby filtering of event notification information can be achieved. Filtering is a mechanism for defining the preferred notification information, referred to as content, to be delivered and for specifying the rules for when that information should be delivered. The filtering mechanism is expected to be particularly valuable and primarily applicable to users of mobile wireless access devices. The characteristics of the devices typically include high latency, low bandwidth, low data processing capabilities, small display, and limited battery power. Such devices can benefit from the ability to filter the amount of information generated at the source of the event notification. However, implementers need to be aware of the computational burden on the source of the event notification. This is discussed further in Section 8. The structure of the filter criteria is described using the XML schema. The filter criteria is presented as an XML document. The XML document contains the user's preference as to when notifications are to be sent to it and what they are to contain. The scope of the "when" part is triggering. The triggering is defined as enabling a subscriber to specify triggering rules for notifications where the criteria are based on changes of the event package [2] specific state information, e.g., for the presence information document [15], the change in the value of the element. The functionality of the filtering regarding the SIP event notifications is specified in [3]. 2. Conventions In this document, the key words 'MUST', 'MUST NOT', 'REQUIRED', 'SHALL', 'SHALL NOT', 'SHOULD', 'SHOULD NOT', 'RECOMMENDED', 'MAY', and 'OPTIONAL' are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 [1] and indicate requirement levels for compliant implementations. Throughout the document, the "resulting XML document" refers to the final XML document that carries state information to be delivered to the subscriber after the filters have been applied to it. Khartabil, et al. Standards Track [Page 3] RFC 4661 XML Based Format for Filtering September 2006 "Content" refers to the XML document that appears in a notification reflecting the state of a resource. 3. Structure of XML-Encoded Simple-Filter A simple-filter is an XML document [8] that MUST be well formed and MUST be valid according to schemas, including extension schemas, available to the validater, and applicable to the XML document. The simple-filter documents MUST be based on XML 1.0 and MUST be encoded using UTF-8. The namespace identifier for elements defined by this specification is a URN [5], which uses the namespace identifier 'ietf' defined by [6] and extended by [4]. This urn is: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:simple-filter. This namespace declaration indicates the namespace on which the filter criteria are based. 3.1. MIME Type for Simple-Filter Document The MIME type for the simple-filter document is "application/ simple-filter+xml". Any transport protocol (SIP [12], for example) used to carry the filters that also carries payload type information MUST identify the payload as MIME type "application/simple-filter+xml" (for example, a Content-Type header field). 3.2. The Root Element The root element of the filter criteria is . The element contains the namespace definition mentioned above. With the optional 'package' attribute, it is possible to define the package to which the filter criteria is applied. This might be especially useful in cases where the XML document containing the filter criteria is separated from the events that make use of it or from the protocol that usually carries it. The element may contain one element. The element contains one or more elements. 3.3. The Element The element is used to bind namespaces to local prefixes used in expressions that select elements or attributes using Khartabil, et al. Standards Track [Page 4] RFC 4661 XML Based Format for Filtering September 2006 the syntax in Section 5. Those prefixes apply to the , , , , and elements. The element contains one or more elements. Each element has a 'prefix' attribute. The value of the 'prefix' attribute is a prefix used to qualify the elements pointed to by the expression. The element also has a 'urn' attribute that identifies the namespace that the prefix represents. 3.4. The Element The element is used to specify the content of an individual filter. The element has an 'id' attribute. The value of the 'id' attribute MUST be unique within the element. The MAY have a 'uri' attribute. The value of the 'uri' attribute is the URI of the resource to which the filter applies. The MAY have a 'domain' attribute. The value of the 'domain' attribute is the domain of the resources to which the filter applies. The 'uri' attribute and the 'domain' attribute MUST NOT appear together in the . The URI of the resource is useful in cases where the 'event list' extension [17] is used with a package. Since a subscription to an event package may be addressed to an event list, the 'uri' attribute allows the subscriber to define a filter specific to an individual resource within that list. That resource may be another list. The 'uri' attribute may, of course, carry the URI of the list itself. If the does not contain the 'uri' attribute, the filter applies to the resource identified in the subscription request. The 'domain' attribute carries a domain. In this case, the filter applies to resources whose URI has a domain part matching that domain. This can be used when a subscription is for a resource that is an event list with many resources from differing domains. URI matching is done according to the matching rules defined for a particular scheme. When matching domains, the user part of the URI is ignored for matching purposes. The MAY have a 'remove' attribute that together with the 'id' attribute indicates the existing filter to be removed. The value of the 'remove' attribute is of the type "Boolean". The default value is "false". Khartabil, et al. Standards Track [Page 5] RFC 4661 XML Based Format for Filtering September 2006 The MAY have an 'enabled' attribute that indicates whether a filter is enabled or disabled. The value of the 'enabled' attribute is of the type "Boolean". The default value is "true". The element MAY contain a element and MAY contain one or more elements, but it MUST contain either the element or the element when the filter is being enabled for the first time. When a filter is disabled by setting the 'enabled' attribute to "false", the and elements MAY be omitted. Similarly, when a filter is re-enabled by setting the 'enabled' attribute to "true", the and elements MAY be omitted. Filter contents can be changed by changing the contents in the and elements and maintaining the value of the filter 'id' attribute. 3.5. The Element The element is used to specify the content to be delivered to the user. It does not specify the exact content but the rules that are used to construct that information. The element may contain one or more elements and one or more elements. When more than one element has been defined, the results are additive. That is, each element adds an element or attribute to the resulting XML document. When more than one element has been defined, each element value depletes the contents of the resulting XML document. 3.5.1. The Element The element is used to select the content to be delivered. Its value can identify an XML element, an attribute, or a namespace of an XML document to be filtered. This is indicated using the 'type' attribute. Note that the resulting XML document MUST be valid. Therefore, in addition to including the elements identified with the element value, all other mandatory XML elements and/or attributes must be incorporated in the resulting XML document in order to make it valid. This, in practice, means that a subscriber defining a filter only needs to optional elements and/or attributes, but may mandatory elements and/or attributes as well. There are also cases where a filter selects an attribute that belongs to an optional element. In this case, the optional element needs to appear in the resulting XML document. Khartabil, et al. Standards Track [Page 6] RFC 4661 XML Based Format for Filtering September 2006 The syntax defined in Section 5 (see the definition of "selection") MUST be used. The following example selects the element defined in the PIDF [13]. This results in the selection of the element as well as all the ancestors, i.e., and . /presence/tuple/status/basic. 3.5.2. The Element The element is used to define exceptions to the set of XML elements and/or attributes selected by the elements. Thus, XML elements (including their lower-level "child" elements) and/or attributes defined by the element are not delivered. This is most useful when an element identifies a namespace. The element has the optional 'type' attribute (see the definition of the 'type' in Section 3.5.3). Note that the resulting XML document MUST be valid. Therefore, if the step in applying the element value to an XML document results in an invalid document according to the schema, that step MUST be reversed, resulting in the elements and/or attributes being re-introduced into the resulting XML document with their previous values in order to make it valid. This, in practice, means that a subscriber defining a filter only needs to optional elements and/or attributes, but SHOULD NOT mandatory elements and/or attributes. The syntax MUST follow Section 5. 3.5.3. The 'type' Attribute The 'type' attribute is used to describe the value of the and elements. The following values are pre-defined: "xpath" and "namespace". The 'type' attribute is optional, and, if omitted, the default value is "xpath". The "xpath" value is used when the or element contains a value following the syntax in Section 5 that selects an element or an attribute. The "namespace" value is used when the or element contains a value of a namespace. The value is the URI of the namespace. The resulting XML document is comprised of the elements defined within the namespace. Khartabil, et al. Standards Track [Page 7] RFC 4661 XML Based Format for Filtering September 2006 3.6. The Element The element is used to identify the package-specific changes that a resource has to encounter before the content is delivered to the subscriber. It can appear more than once in a element. Multiple appearances of this element denote the "OR" operation. This means that updates to a resource that satisfy any of the elements criteria constitute the content to be delivered. The element MAY contain the , , or elements, but it MUST contain at least one of the three elements. Any combination of the 3 elements is possible. Multiple appearances of those elements within a element denotes the "AND" operation. This means that updates to a resource that satisfy ALL of the , , and elements' criteria within the element constitute the content to be delivered. 3.6.1. The Element The element is used to identify the XML element or attribute, from the package-specific XML document, whose value MUST change from that of the "previous XML document", in order to activate the trigger and cause the content to be delivered. Previous XML document" in this context refers to the raw version of the most recent XML document that was sent to the subscriber, before the filters were applied to it. The XML element or attribute MUST be expressed using the syntax defined in Section 5 for the "reference" ABNF. The element MAY contain the 'from' attribute, the 'to' attribute, the 'by' attribute, or any combination of the three. The absence of all of those attributes means a change of any sort to the value of the element or attribute activates the trigger. An update to the element or attribute value with an identical value is not a change. Comparison of a change is done according to the element or attribute's lexical rules. 3.6.1.1. The 'from' Attribute A trigger is active when the XML element or attribute identified with the element has changed from the value indicated by this attribute to a different value. Khartabil, et al. Standards Track [Page 8] RFC 4661 XML Based Format for Filtering September 2006 3.6.1.2. The 'to' Attribute A trigger is active when the XML element or attribute identified with the element has changed to the value indicated by this attribute from a different value. 3.6.1.3. The 'by' Attribute A trigger is active when the XML element or attribute identified with the element has changed by at least the amount indicated by this attribute from a different value. That is, the 'by' attribute applies only to numerical values and indicates a delta with respect to the current value that an attribute or element (identified in the element) needs to change before it is selected. For example, if the 'by' attribute is set to 2 and the current value of the element/attribute is 6, the element/attribute is selected when it reaches (or exceeds) the value 8 or when it decreases to 4 or a lower value. 3.6.1.4. Combination of Attributes Any combination of the 'from', 'to', and 'by' attributes in the element is possible. For example, if the 'from' attribute is combined with the 'to' attribute, it is interpreted to mean that the trigger is active when the XML element or attribute identified with the element has changed from the 'from' value to the 'to' value. Note that if the 'by' attribute is used in combination with the other attributes, the other attribute types MUST match the 'by' type of decimal. 3.6.2. The Element The element triggers content delivery when the XML element it identifies has been added to the document being filtered (that is, this instance of that element appears in the current document, but not in the previous document). It can be used, for example, to learn of new services and/or capabilities subscribed to by the user, or services and/or capabilities that the user has now allowed the subscriber to see. The XML element or attribute MUST be expressed using the syntax defined in Section 5 for the "reference" ABNF. Note that if a filter includes both the content filter () part and the element, then the definitions of the part SHOULD also cover the added elements. Otherwise, the content is delivered without the items defined in the element. Khartabil, et al. Standards Track [Page 9] RFC 4661 XML Based Format for Filtering September 2006 3.6.3. The Element The element triggers content delivery when the XML element it identifies has been removed from the document being filtered (that is, this instance of that element appeared in the previous document, but not in this document). The XML element or attribute MUST be expressed using the syntax defined in Section 5 for the "reference" ABNF. 4. XML Schema Extensibility The simple-filter document is meant to be extended. An extension takes place by defining a new set of elements in a new namespace, governed by a new schema. Every extension MUST have an appropriate XML namespace assigned to it. The XML namespace of the extension MUST be different from the namespaces defined in this specification. The extension MUST NOT change the syntax or semantics of the schemas defined in this document. All XML tags and attributes that are part of the extension MUST be appropriately qualified so as to place them within that namespace and MUST be designed such that receivers can safely ignore such extensions. This specification defines explicit places where new elements or attributes from an extension can be placed. These are explicitly indicated in the schemas by the and elements. Extensions to this specification MUST specify where their elements can be placed within the document. As a result, a document that contains extensions will require multiple schemas in order to determine its validity - a schema defined in this document, along with those defined by extensions present in the document. Because extensions occur by adding new elements and attributes governed by new schemas, the schemas defined in this document are fixed and would only be changed by a revision to this specification. Such a revision, should it take place, would endeavor to allow documents compliant to the previous schema to remain compliant to the new one. As a result, the schemas defined here don't provide explicit schema versions, as this is not expected to be needed. 5. Syntax for Referencing XML Items and Making Logical Expressions The ABNF [10] is used to describe the syntax for the expressions. The syntax is defined to be XPATH [9] compatible but has only a restricted set of capabilities of the XPATH. More information about the meaning of the items of the syntax can be found in [9]. The "abbreviated syntax" of the "node test" is used in the references ("reference"). The expression in the syntax relates to the Khartabil, et al. Standards Track [Page 10] RFC 4661 XML Based Format for Filtering September 2006 predicate, comparison, and logical expressions of the XPATH. If an XPATH expression evaluates to more than one element at a certain step, the filter applies to all the elements that are evaluated. That is, if a filter including an element evaluates to 2 elements, both elements are included as a result. selection = reference [expression] expression = "[" (elem-expr / attr-expr) 1*[oper (elem-expr / attr-expr)] "]" elem-expr = (elem-path / "." / "..") compar value elem-path = (element / "*") 1*["/" / "*" / element] ["*" / element] attr-expr = [elem-path "/"] attribute compar value reference = elem-reference / attr-reference elem-reference = "/" 1*("/" / "/*" / ("/" element)) attr-reference = reference attribute oper = "and" / "or" compar = "=" / "<" / ">" element = [ns] string attribute = "@" [ns] string ns = string ":" string = value = When identifying XML elements or attributes, the value may consist of two parts: the XML element/attribute selector and the condition (comparison and logical expressions). The XML element selector appears first followed by the condition part in square brackets. In the XML element selector part, the XML elements may be referenced by giving the full hierarchical path as: "/presence/tuple/status/basic", by denoting the selection to cover any hierarchical level by its name as: "//tuple/status/basic", or using the wildcard "*", denoting any value in a certain level as "/*/watcher". Example references are listed as follows: o Selecting an element by using an XML element as a condition: * //*[status/basic="open"] * /presence/tuple[*/basic="open"] o Selecting an element by using XML attributes as a condition: * //watcher[@duration-subscribed<500] * /*/watcher[@event="rejected"] Khartabil, et al. Standards Track [Page 11] RFC 4661 XML Based Format for Filtering September 2006 o Selecting an element by using two XML elements as a condition: * //tuple[status/basic="open" and type="device"] o Selecting an attribute: * //watcher/@duration-subscribed In some cases, due to the design of the XML schema, the XPATH-like expression results in identification of more than one element with the same name (the XPATH expression may not have uniquely identified an element at every step). In those cases, all elements identified are selected. When evaluating XPATH location steps, namespace expansion follows XPATH 1.0 [9] semantics, i.e., if the QName does not have a prefix, then the namespace URI in the expanded name is null. With non-default namespaces, expansion is done according to the given definitions. When a default namespace is used in the document, the element SHOULD be used to define an equal URI with some prefix in order to have a valid XPATH evaluation in location steps. 6. Examples The XML Schema for the XML document examples is specified in Section 7. 6.1. Filter Criteria Using Element A user wishes to get to know his friend's availability and willingness for messaging (SMS, IM, and MMS) in order to know whether the friend is able to receive a message, the address to contact, and the type of the message to be used. This example shows how to define a content filter. The element as well as all parent elements are selected based on a condition defined by a logical expression. The condition is elements that have a value "MMS", "SMS", or "IM". The element is defined in [14] as an extension to PIDF [13]. Khartabil, et al. Standards Track [Page 12] RFC 4661 XML Based Format for Filtering September 2006 /pidf:presence/pidf:tuple[rpid:class="IM" or rpid:class="SMS" or rpid:class="MMS"]/pidf:status/pidf:basic 6.2. Filter Criteria Using Element A user requires to be informed when his colleague becomes available by some communication means. The user gets the full presence state of the colleague when a certain PIDF [13] tuple status changes from "closed" to "open". /pidf:presence/pidf:tuple/pidf:status/pidf:basic 6.3. Filter Criteria Using and Elements A user wishes to get information about pending and waiting subscriptions in order to be able to authorise watchers to see his presence information. The filter selects watcher information notifications [16] to be sent when a subscription status has changed to "pending" or "waiting". In the notification, only the watchers that have a status of "pending" or "waiting" are included. Khartabil, et al. Standards Track [Page 13] RFC 4661 XML Based Format for Filtering September 2006 /wi:watcherinfo/wi:watcher-list/wi:watcher[@status="pending" or @status="waiting"] /wi:watcherinfo/wi:watcher-list/wi:watcher/@status /wi:watcherinfo/wi:watcher-list/wi:watcher/@status 6.4. Content Filter Using Namespaces A user turns her terminal on, and the terminal automatically fetches general presence status and information about communication means from a certain pre-defined set of her buddies. The filter is defined to select XML elements belonging to the PIDF namespace. urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:pidf 6.5. Content Filter Using Only Elements A user wants to know if a group of his friends is available for gaming. He orders notifications about the current status and future changes of the game-specific presence information. This filter is defined to select the game-specific tuple to be delivered. Khartabil, et al. Standards Track [Page 14] RFC 4661 XML Based Format for Filtering September 2006 /pidf:presence/pidf:tuple/ pidf:status[game-ext:label="game-X"] 6.6. Two Content Filters as Filter Criteria The user is interested in getting up-to-date information about the communication means and contact addresses of his friends. The user also wants to get more information (e.g., location) about one of the friends in the list, named Bob. The PIDF element is filtered out, i.e., excluded. The list was predefined as buddies@example.com. /pidf:presence/pidf:tuple[rpid:class="service"]/pidf:status/ pidf:basic urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:pidf /pidf:presence/pidf:tuple/pidf:note Khartabil, et al.

Standards Track [Page 17] RFC 4661 XML Based Format for Filtering September 2006 8. Security Considerations The filters in the body in a SIP message have a significant effect on the ways in which the request is handled at a server. As a result, it is especially important that messages containing this extension be authenticated and authorised. Authentication can be achieved using the Digest Authentication mechanism described in [12]. The authorisation decision is based on the permissions that the resource (notifier) has given to the watcher. An example of such an auhorisation policy can be found in [18]. Khartabil, et al. Standards Track [Page 18] RFC 4661 XML Based Format for Filtering September 2006 Requests can reveal sensitive information about a UA's capabilities. If this information is sensitive, it SHOULD be encrypted using SIP S/MIME capabilities [11]. All filtering-related security measures discussed in [2] MUST be followed along with package-specific security. 9. IANA Considerations This document registers a new MIME type, "application/ simple-filter+xml", and registers a new XML namespace. This specification follows the guidelines of RFC3023 [7]. 9.1. application/simple-filter+xml MIME TYPE MIME media type: application MIME subtype name: simple-filter+xml Mandatory parameters: none Optional parameters: Same as charset parameter application/xml, as specified in RFC 3023 [7].
