  <h1>Open Network Configuration Format</h1>

<section class="not_in_toc">
  <h1>Outline</h1>

</section>

<section>
  <h1>Objective</h1>
  <p>
    We would like to create a simple, open, but complete format to describe
    multiple network configurations for Wi-Fi, Ethernet, Cellular,
    Bluetooth/WiFi-Direct, and VPN connections in a single file format, in order
    to simplify and automate network configuration for users.
  </p>
</section>

<section>
  <h1>Background</h1>
  <p>
    Configuring networks is a painful and error-prone experience for users. It
    is a problem shared across desktop, laptop, tablet, and phone users of all
    operating system types. It is exacerbated in business and schools which
    often have complex network configurations (VPNs and 802.1X networking) that
    change often and have many connected devices. Configuration of Wi-Fi is
    still done manually, often by administrators physically standing next to
    users working on devices. Certificate distribution is particularly painful
    which often results in admins instead using passphrases to protect networks
    or using protocols without client certificates that instead use LDAP
    passwords for authentication. Even after networks are configured, updates to
    the network configuration require another round of manual changes, and
    accidental changes by a user or malicious changes by an attacker can break
    connectivity or make connections less private or secure.
  </p>

<section>
  <h1>Overview</h1>
  <p>
    We propose a single-file format for network configuration that is
    human-readable, can describe all of the common kinds of network
    configurations, supports integrity checking, certificate and key
    provisioning, and updating. The file can be encrypted with a single
    passphrase so that upon entering the passphrase the entire configuration is
    loaded. The format can be described as an open format to enable multiple OS
    vendors to interoperate and share configuration editors.
  </p>

  <p>
    This format neither supports configuring browser settings nor allows setting
    other types of system policies.
  </p>
</section>

<section>
  <h1>Infrastructure</h1>
  <p>
    A standalone configuration editor will be created, downloadable as a Chrome
    app. This editor will allow creating, modifying, and encrypting an open
    network configuration file in a way that is intuitive for a system
    administrator.
  </p>

  <p>
    This file format may be delivered to a user and manually imported into a
    device.
  </p>

  <p>
    This file format may be created by an administrator, stored in a policy
    repository, and automatically pushed to a device.
  </p>
</section>

</section>

<section>
  <h1>Detailed Design</h1>
  <p>
    We use JSON format for the files. The fields in a JSON file are always
    case-sensitive, so the exact case of the fields in this section must be
    matched. In addition, the values that are called out as explicit constants
    must also match the case specified (e.g. WiFi must not be written as wifi,
    etc.). This document describes a minimum set of required fields and optional
    fields. Other fields may be created, however, see the
    implementation-specific fields for guidelines for these fields.
  </p>

  <p>
    The JSON consists of a top level dictionary containing
    a <span class="field">Type</span> field which must have either the
    value <span class="value">EncryptedConfiguration</span>
    or <span class="value">UnencryptedConfiguration</span>.
  </p>

  <p>
    For a description of the <span class="type">EncryptedConfiguration</span>
    type, see the section on Encrypted Configuration
    below. The <span class="type">EncryptedConfiguration</span> format encrypts
    an unencrypted JSON object.
  </p>

<section>
  <h1>GUIDs and Updating</h1>
  <p>
    This format allows for importing updated network configurations and
    certificates by providing GUIDs to each network configuration and
    certificate so they can be modified or even removed in future updates.
  </p>

  <p>
    GUIDs are non-empty strings that are meant to be stable and unique. When
    they refer to the same entity, they should be the same between ONC files. No
    two different networks or certificates should have the same GUID, similarly
    a network and certificate should not have the same GUID. A single ONC file
    should not contain the same entity twice (with the same GUID). Failing any
    of these tests indicates the ONC file is not valid.
  </p>

  <p>
    Any GUID referred to in an ONC file must be present in the same ONC file. In
    particular, it is an error to create a certificate in one ONC file and refer
    to it in a NetworkConfiguration in another ONC file and not define it there,
    even if the previous ONC file has been imported.
  </p>
</section>

<section>
  <h1>Implementation-specific fields</h1>
  <p>
    As there are many different kinds of connections and some that are not yet
    anticipated may require new fields. This format allows arbitrary other
    fields to be added.
  </p>

  <p>
    Fields and values should follow these general guidelines:
  </p>

  <ul>
    <li>
      Certificates (with and without keys) should always be placed in the
      certificate section - specifically certificate contents should not be
      placed in fields directly. Referring to certificates should be done using
      a field whose name ends in Ref and whose value is the GUID of the
      certificate, or if the certificate is not contained in this file, its
      pattern can be described using a field ending in Pattern of
      <span class="type">CertificatePattern</span> type.
    </li>
    <li>
      Fields should exist in the most-specific object in the hierarchy and
      should be named CamelCase style.
    </li>
    <li>
      Booleans and integers should be used directly instead of using a
      stringified version of the type.
    </li>
  </ul>

  <p>
    Any editor of network configuration information should allows the user to
    modify any fields that are implementation-specific. It may not be present
    directly in the UI but it should be able to import files with such settings
    and leave preserve these settings on export.
  </p>

<section>
  <h1>Unencrypted Configuration</h1>
  <p>
    When the top level <span class="field">Type</span> field

      Omits a default route to the VPN gateway while the connection is active.

  <h1>Client certificate patterns</h1>
  <p>
    In order to allow clients to securely key their private keys and request
    certificates through PKCS#10 format or through a web flow, we provide
    alternative CertificatePattern types. The
    <span class="type">CertificatePattern</span> type contains the following:
  </p>

  <dl class="field_list">
    <dt class="field">IssuerCARef</dt>
    <dd>
      <span class="field_meta">
        (optional)

      </span>
      Pattern to match the issuer X.509 settings against. If not specified, the
      only checks done will be a signature check against
      the <span class="field">IssuerCARef</span> field. Issuer of the
      certificate must match this field exactly to match the pattern.
    </dd>

    <dt class="field">Subject</dt>
    <dd>
      <span class="field_meta">
        (optional)
        <span class="type">IssuerSubjectPattern</span>
      </span>
      Pattern to match the subject X.509 settings against. If not specified, the
      subject settings are not checked and any certificate matches. Subject of
      the certificate must match this field exactly to match the pattern.
    </dd>

    <dt class="field">EnrollmentURI</dt>
    <dd>
      <span class="field_meta">
        (optional)

      If no certificate matches this CertificatePattern, the first URI from this
      array with a recognized scheme is navigated to, with the intention this
      informs the user how to either get the certificate or gets the certificate
      for the user. For instance, the array may be [
      "chrome-extension://asakgksjssjwwkeielsjs/fetch-client-cert.html",
      "http://intra/connecting-to-wireless.html" ] so that for Chrome browsers a
      Chrome app or extension is shown to the user, but for other browsers, a
      web URL is shown.
    </dd>
  </dl>

  <p>
    The <span class="type">IssuerSubjectPattern</span> type contains the

    One field in <span class="field">Subject</span>,
    <span class="field">Issuer</span>, or <span class="field">IssuerCARef</span>
    must be given for a <span class="type">CertificatePattern</span> typed field
    to be valid.
  </p>

  <p>
    For a certificate to be considered matching, it must match all
    the fields in the certificate pattern. If multiple certificates match, the
    certificate with the latest issue date that is still in the past, and hence
    valid, will be used.
  </p>

  <p>
    If <span class="field">EnrollmentURI</span> is not given and no match is
    found to this pattern, the importing tool may show an error to the user.

  <h1>Encrypted Configuration</h1>
  <p>
    We assume that when this format is imported as part of policy that
    file-level encryption will not be necessary because the policy transport is
    already encrypted, but when it is imported as a standalone file, it is
    desirable to encrypt it. Since this file has private information (user
    names) and secrets (passphrases and private keys) in it, and we want it to
    be usable as a manual way to distribute network configuration, we must
    support encryption.
  </p>

  <p>
    For this standalone export, the entire file will be encrypted in a symmetric
    fashion with a passphrase stretched using salted PBKDF2 using at least 20000
    iterations, and encrypted using an AES-256 CBC mode cipher with an SHA-1
    HMAC on the ciphertext.

  <h1>String Expansions</h1>
  <p>
    The values of some fields, such
    as <span class="field">WiFi.EAP.Identity</span>
    and <span class="field">VPN.*.Username</span>, are subject to string
    expansions. These allow one ONC to have basic user-specific variations.
  </p>

  <p>
    The expansions are:
  </p>

  <ul>
    <li>
      ${LOGIN_ID} - expands to the email address of the user, but before the
      '@'.
    </li>
    <li>
      ${LOGIN_EMAIL} - expands to the email address of the user.
    </li>
  </ul>

  <p>
    The following SED would properly handle resolution.
  </p>

  <ul>
    <li>
      s/\$\{LOGIN_ID\}/bobquail$1/g
    </li>
    <li>
      s/\$\{LOGIN_EMAIL\}/bobquail@example.com$1/g
    </li>
  </ul>

  <p>
    Example expansions, assuming the user was bobquail@example.com:
  </p>

  <ul>
    <li>
      "${LOGIN_ID}" -> "bobquail"
    </li>
    <li>
      "${LOGIN_ID}@corp.example.com" -> "bobquail@corp.example.com"
    </li>
    <li>
      "${LOGIN_EMAIL}" -> "bobquail@example.com"
    </li>
    <li>
      "${LOGIN_ID}X" -> "bobquailX"
    </li>
    <li>
      "${LOGIN_IDX}" -> "${LOGIN_IDX}"
    </li>
    <li>
      "X${LOGIN_ID}" -> "Xbobquail"
    </li>
  </ul>

  <h1>Detection</h1>
  <p>
    This format should be sent in files ending in the .onc extension. When
    transmitted with a MIME type, the MIME type should be
    application/x-onc. These two methods make detection of data to be handled in
    this format, especially when encryption is used and the payload itself is
    not detectable.
  </p>
</section>

</section>

<section>
  <h1>Alternatives considered</h1>
  <p>
    For the overall format, we considered XML, ASN.1, and protobufs. JSON and
    ASN.1 seem more widely known than protobufs. Since administrators are
    likely to want to tweak settings that will not exist in common UIs, we
    should provide a format that is well known and human modifiable. ASN.1 is
    not human modifiable. Protobufs formats are known by open source developers
    but seem less likely to be known by administrators. JSON serialization
    seems to have good support across languages.
  </p>

  <p>
    We considered sending the exact connection manager configuration format of
    an open source connection manager like connman. There are a few issues
    here, for instance, referencing certificates by identifiers not tied to a
    particular PKCS#11 token, and tying to one OS's connection manager.

  <h1>Security Considerations</h1>

  <p>
    Data stored inside of open network configuration files is highly sensitive
    to users and enterprises. The file format itself provides adequate
    encryption options to allow standalone use-cases to be secure. For automatic
    updates sent by policy, the policy transport should be made secure. The file
    should not be stored unencrypted on disk as part of policy fetching and
    should be cleared from memory after use.
  </p>
</section>

<section>
  <h1>Privacy Considerations</h1>

  <p>
    Similarly to the security considerations, user names will be present in
    these files for certain kinds of connections, so any places where the file
    is transmitted or saved to disk should be secure. On client device, when
    user names for connections that are user-specific are persisted to disk,
    they should be stored in a location that is encrypted. Users can also opt in
    these cases to not save their user credentials in the config file and will
    instead be prompted when they are needed.
