Title: Federated Authentication for the Registration Data Access Protocol (RDAP) Using OpenID Connect Author: S. Hollenbeck Status: Standards Track Stream: IETF Date: April 2024 Mailbox: shollenb...@verisign.com Pages: 40 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-regext-rdap-openid-27.txt URL: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc9560 DOI: 10.17487/RFC9560 The Registration Data Access Protocol (RDAP) provides Representational State Transfer (RESTful) web services to retrieve registration metadata from domain name and regional internet registries. RDAP allows a server to make access control decisions based on client identity, and as such, it includes support for client identification features provided by the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). Identification methods that require clients to obtain and manage credentials from every RDAP server operator present management challenges for both clients and servers, whereas a federated authentication system would make it easier to operate and use RDAP without the need to maintain server-specific client credentials. This document describes a federated authentication system for RDAP based on OpenID Connect. This document is a product of the Registration Protocols Extensions 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. Please refer to the current edition of the Official Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the standardization state and status of this protocol.
