=head1 PROTOCOL |
430 |
|
431 |
The AEMP protocol is comparatively simple, and consists of three phases |
432 |
which are symmetrical for both sides: greeting (followed by optionally |
433 |
switching to TLS mode), authentication and packet exchange. |
434 |
|
435 |
The protocol is designed to allow both full-text and binary streams. |
436 |
|
437 |
The greeting consists of two text lines that are ended by either an ASCII |
438 |
CR LF pair, or a single ASCII LF (recommended). |
439 |
|
440 |
=head2 GREETING |
441 |
|
442 |
All the lines until after authentication must not exceed 4kb in length, |
443 |
including line delimiter. Afterwards there is no limit on the packet size |
444 |
that can be received. |
445 |
|
446 |
=head3 First Greeting Line |
447 |
|
448 |
Example: |
449 |
|
450 |
aemp;0;rain;tls_md6_64_256,hmac_md6_64_256,tls_anon,cleartext;json,storable;timeout=12;peeraddr=10.0.0.1:48082 |
451 |
|
452 |
The first line contains strings separated (not ended) by C<;> |
453 |
characters. The first five strings are fixed by the protocol, the |
454 |
remaining strings are C<KEY=VALUE> pairs. None of them may contain C<;> |
455 |
characters themselves (when escaping is needed, use C<%3b> to represent |
456 |
C<;> and C<%25> to represent C<%>)- |
457 |
|
458 |
The fixed strings are: |

=item protocol version |
467 |
|
468 |
The protocol version supported by this end, currently C<1>. If the |
469 |
versions don't match then no communication is possible. Minor extensions |
470 |
are supposed to be handled through additional key-value pairs. |
471 |

472 |
=item the node ID |
473 |
|
474 |
This is the node ID of the connecting node. |

476 |
=item the acceptable authentication methods |
477 |
|
478 |
A comma-separated list of authentication methods supported by the |
479 |
node. Note that AnyEvent::MP supports a C<hex_secret> authentication |
480 |
method that accepts a clear-text password (hex-encoded), but will not use |
481 |
this authentication method itself. |
482 |
|
483 |
The receiving side should choose the first authentication method it |
484 |
supports. |
485 |
|
486 |
=item the acceptable framing formats |
487 |
|
488 |
A comma-separated list of packet encoding/framing formats understood. The |
489 |
receiving side should choose the first framing format it supports for |
490 |
sending packets (which might be different from the format it has to accept). |
491 |
|
492 |
=back |
493 |
|
494 |
The remaining arguments are C<KEY=VALUE> pairs. The following key-value |
495 |
pairs are known at this time: |
496 |
|
497 |
=over 4 |
498 |
|
499 |
=item provider=<module-version> |
500 |
|
501 |
The software provider for this implementation. For AnyEvent::MP, this is |
502 |
C<AE-0.0> or whatever version it currently is at. |
503 |
|
504 |
=item peeraddr=<host>:<port> |
505 |
|
506 |
The peer address (socket address of the other side) as seen locally. |
507 |
|
508 |
=item tls=<major>.<minor> |
509 |
|
510 |
Indicates that the other side supports TLS (version should be 1.0) and |
511 |
wishes to do a TLS handshake. |

=head3 Second Greeting Line |
516 |
|
517 |
After this greeting line there will be a second line containing a |
518 |
cryptographic nonce, i.e. random data of high quality. To keep the |
519 |
protocol text-only, these are usually 32 base64-encoded octets, but |
520 |
it could be anything that doesn't contain any ASCII CR or ASCII LF |
521 |
characters. |
522 |
|
523 |
I<< The two nonces B<must> be different, and an aemp implementation |
524 |
B<must> check and fail when they are identical >>. |
525 |
|
526 |
Example of a nonce line (yes, it's random-looking because it is random |
527 |
data): |

=head2 TLS handshake |
532 |
|
533 |
I<< If, after the handshake, both sides indicate interest in TLS, then the |
534 |
connection B<must> use TLS, or fail to continue. >> |
535 |
|
536 |
Both sides compare their nonces, and the side who sent the lower nonce |
537 |
value ("string" comparison on the raw octet values) becomes the client, |
538 |
and the one with the higher nonce the server. |
539 |
|
540 |
=head2 AUTHENTICATION PHASE |
541 |
|
542 |
After the greeting is received (and the optional TLS handshake), |
543 |
the authentication phase begins, which consists of sending a single |
544 |
C<;>-separated line with three fixed strings and any number of |
545 |
C<KEY=VALUE> pairs. |
546 |
|
547 |
The three fixed strings are: |

|
549 |
=over 4 |
550 |
|
551 |
=item the authentication method chosen |
552 |
|
553 |
This must be one of the methods offered by the other side in the greeting. |
554 |
|
555 |
Note that all methods starting with C<tls_> are only valid I<iff> TLS was |
556 |
successfully handshaked (and to be secure the implementation must enforce |
557 |
this). |
558 |
|
559 |
The currently supported authentication methods are: |
560 |
|
561 |
=over 4 |
562 |
|
563 |
=item cleartext |
564 |
|
565 |
This is simply the shared secret, lowercase-hex-encoded. This method is of |
566 |
course very insecure if TLS is not used (and not completely secure even |
567 |
if TLS is used), which is why this module will accept, but not generate, |
568 |
cleartext auth replies. |
569 |
|
570 |
=item hmac_md6_64_256 |
571 |
|
572 |
This method uses an MD6 HMAC with 64 bit blocksize and 256 bit hash, and |
573 |
requires a shared secret. It is the preferred auth method when a shared |
574 |
secret is available. |
575 |
|
576 |
First, the shared secret is hashed with MD6: |
577 |
|
578 |
key = MD6 (secret) |
579 |
|
580 |
This secret is then used to generate the "local auth reply", by taking |
581 |
the two local greeting lines and the two remote greeting lines (without |
582 |
line endings), appending \012 to all of them, concatenating them and |
583 |
calculating the MD6 HMAC with the key: |
584 |
|
585 |
lauth = HMAC_MD6 key, "lgreeting1\012lgreeting2\012rgreeting1\012rgreeting2\012" |
586 |
|
587 |
This authentication token is then lowercase-hex-encoded and sent to the |
588 |
other side. |
589 |
|
590 |
Then the remote auth reply is generated using the same method, but local |
591 |
and remote greeting lines swapped: |
592 |
|
593 |
rauth = HMAC_MD6 key, "rgreeting1\012rgreeting2\012lgreeting1\012lgreeting2\012" |
594 |
|
595 |
This is the token that is expected from the other side. |
596 |
|
597 |
=item tls_anon |
598 |
|
599 |
This type is only valid I<iff> TLS was enabled and the TLS handshake |
600 |
was successful. It has no authentication data, as the server/client |
601 |
certificate was successfully verified. |
602 |
|
603 |
This authentication type is somewhat insecure, as it allows a |
604 |
man-in-the-middle attacker to change some of the connection parameters |
605 |
(such as the framing format), although there is no known attack that |
606 |
exploits this in a way that is worse than just denying the service. |
607 |
|
608 |
By default, this implementation accepts but never generates this auth |
609 |
reply. |
610 |
|
611 |
=item tls_md6_64_256 |
612 |
|
613 |
This type is only valid I<iff> TLS was enabled and the TLS handshake was |
614 |
successful. |
615 |
|
616 |
This authentication type simply calculates: |
617 |
|
618 |
lauth = MD6 "rgreeting1\012rgreeting2\012lgreeting1\012lgreeting2\012" |
619 |
|
620 |
and lowercase-hex encodes the result and sends it as authentication |
621 |
data. No shared secret is required (authentication is done by TLS). The |
622 |
checksum exists only to make tinkering with the greeting hard. |
623 |
|
624 |
=back |
625 |
|
626 |
=item the authentication data |
627 |
|
628 |
The authentication data itself, usually base64 or hex-encoded data, see |
629 |
above. |
630 |
|
631 |
=item the framing protocol chosen |
632 |
|
633 |
This must be one of the framing protocols offered by the other side in the |
634 |
greeting. Each side must accept the choice of the other side, and generate |
635 |
packets in the format it chose itself. |
636 |

637 |

642 |
|
643 |
=head2 DATA PHASE |

=head2 SIMPLE HANDSHAKE FOR NON-PERL NODES |
669 |
|
670 |
Implementing the full set of options for handshaking can be a daunting |
671 |
task. |
672 |
|
673 |
If security is not so important (because you only connect locally and |
674 |
control the host, a common case), and you want to interface with an AEMP |
675 |
node from another programming language, then you can also implement a |
676 |
simplified handshake. |
677 |
|
678 |
For example, in a simple implementation you could decide to simply not |
679 |
check the authenticity of the other side and use cleartext authentication |
680 |
yourself. The the handshake is as simple as sending three lines of text, |
681 |
reading three lines of text, and then you can exchange JSON-formatted |
682 |
messages: |
683 |
|
684 |
aemp;1;<nodename>;hmac_md6_64_256;json |
685 |
<nonce> |
686 |
cleartext;<hexencoded secret>;json |
687 |
|
688 |
The nodename should be unique within the network, preferably unique with |
689 |
every connection, the <nonce> could be empty or some random data, and the |
690 |
hexencoded secret would be the shared secret, in lowercase hex (e.g. if |
691 |
the secret is "geheim", the hex-encoded version would be "67656865696d"). |
692 |
|
693 |
Note that apart from the low-level handshake and framing protocol, there |
694 |
is a high-level protocol, e.g. for monitoring, building the mesh or |
695 |
spawning. All these messages are sent to the node port (the empty string) |
696 |
and can safely be ignored if you do not need the relevant functionality. |
697 |
|
698 |
=head3 USEFUL HINTS |
699 |
|
700 |
Since taking part in the global protocol to find port groups is |
701 |
nontrivial, hardcoding port names should be considered as well, i.e. the |
702 |
non-Perl node could simply listen to messages for a few well-known ports. |
703 |
|
704 |
Alternatively, the non-Perl node could call a (already loaded) function |
705 |
in the Perl node by sending it a special message: |
706 |
|
707 |
["", "Some::Function::name", "myownport", 1, 2, 3] |
708 |
|
709 |
This would call the function C<Some::Function::name> with the string |
710 |
C<myownport> and some additional arguments. |
711 |
|
712 |
=head2 MONITORING |
713 |
|
714 |
Monitoring the connection itself is transport-specific. For TCP, all |
715 |
connection monitoring is currently left to TCP retransmit time-outs |
716 |
on a busy link, and TCP keepalive (which should be enabled) for idle |
717 |
connections. |
718 |
|
719 |
This is not sufficient for listener-less nodes, however: they need |
720 |
to regularly send data (30 seconds, or the monitoring interval, is |
721 |
recommended), so TCP actively probes. |
722 |
|
723 |
Future implementations of AnyEvent::Transport might query the kernel TCP |
724 |
buffer after a write timeout occurs, and if it is non-empty, shut down the |
725 |
connections, but this is an area of future research :) |
726 |
|
727 |
=head2 NODE PROTOCOL |
728 |
|
729 |
The transport simply transfers messages, but to implement a full node, a |
730 |
special node port must exist that understands a number of requests. |
731 |
|
732 |
If you are interested in implementing this, drop us a note so we finish |
733 |
the documentation. |
