33 PROTOCOL STANDARD FOR A NetBIOS SERVICE
34 ON A TCP/UDP TRANSPORT:
35 DETAILED SPECIFICATIONS
36
37 ABSTRACT
38
39This RFC defines a proposed standard protocol to support NetBIOS
40services in a TCP/IP environment. Both local network and internet
41operation are supported. Various node types are defined to accommodate
42local and internet topologies and to allow operation with or without the
43use of IP broadcast.
44
45This RFC gives the detailed specifications of the NetBIOS-over-TCP
46packets, protocols, and defined constants and variables. A more general
47overview is found in a companion RFC, "Protocol Standard For a NetBIOS
48Service on a TCP/UDP Transport: Concepts and Methods".

1943. INTRODUCTION
195
196 This RFC contains the detailed packet formats and protocol
197 specifications for NetBIOS-over-TCP. This RFC is a companion to
198 <A HREF="/rfcs/rfc1001.html">RFC 1001</A>, "Protocol Standard For a NetBIOS Service on a TCP/UDP
199 Transport: Concepts and Methods" [1].
200
2014. PACKET DESCRIPTIONS
202
203 Bit and byte ordering are defined by the most recent version of
204 "Assigned Numbers" [2].
205
2064.1. NAME FORMAT
207
208 The NetBIOS name representation in all NetBIOS packets (for NAME,
209 SESSION, and DATAGRAM services) is defined in the Domain Name
210 Service <A HREF="/rfcs/rfc883.html">RFC 883</A>[3] as "compressed" name messages. This format is
211 called "second-level encoding" in the section entitled
212 "Representation of NetBIOS Names" in the Concepts and Methods
213 document.
214
215 For ease of description, the first two paragraphs from page 31,
216 the section titled "Domain name representation and compression",
217 of <A HREF="/rfcs/rfc883.html">RFC 883</A> are replicated here:
218
219 Domain names messages are expressed in terms of a sequence
220 of labels. Each label is represented as a one octet length
221 field followed by that number of octets. Since every domain
222 name ends with the null label of the root, a compressed
223 domain name is terminated by a length byte of zero. The
224 high order two bits of the length field must be zero, and
225 the remaining six bits of the length field limit the label
226 to 63 octets or less.
227
228 To simplify implementations, the total length of label
229 octets and label length octets that make up a domain name is
230 restricted to 255 octets or less.
231
232 The following is the uncompressed representation of the NetBIOS name
233 "FRED ", which is the 4 ASCII characters, F, R, E, D, followed by 12
234 space characters (0x20). This name has the SCOPE_ID: "NETBIOS.COM"
235
236 EGFCEFEECACACACACACACACACACACACA.NETBIOS.COM
237
238 This uncompressed representation of names is called "first-level
239 encoding" in the section entitled "Representation of NetBIOS Names"
240 in the Concepts and Methods document.
241
242 The following is a pictographic representation of the compressed
243 representation of the previous uncompressed Domain Name
244 representation.

273
274 Each section of a domain name is called a label [7 (page 31)]. A
275 label can be a maximum of 63 bytes. The first byte of a label in
276 compressed representation is the number of bytes in the label. For
277 the above example, the first 0x20 is the number of bytes in the
278 left-most label, EGFCEFEECACACACACACACACACACACACA, of the domain
279 name. The bytes following the label length count are the characters
280 of the label. The following labels are in sequence after the first
281 label, which is the encoded NetBIOS name, until a zero (0x00) length
282 count. The zero length count represents the root label, which is
283 always null.
284
285 A label length count is actually a 6-bit field in the label length
286 field. The most significant 2 bits of the field, bits 7 and 6, are
287 flags allowing an escape from the above compressed representation.
288 If bits 7 and 6 are both set (11), the following 14 bits are an
289 offset pointer into the full message to the actual label string from
290 another domain name that belongs in this name. This label pointer
291 allows for a further compression of a domain name in a packet.
292
293 NetBIOS implementations can only use label string pointers in Name
294 Service packets. They cannot be used in Session or Datagram Service
295 packets.
296
297 The other two possible values for bits 7 and 6 (01 and 10) of a label
298 length field are reserved for future use by <A HREF="/rfcs/rfc883.html">RFC 883</A>[2 (page 32)].
299
300 Note that the first octet of a compressed name must contain one of
301 the following bit patterns. (An "x" indicates a bit whose value may
302 be either 0 or 1.):
303
304 00100000 - Netbios name, length must be 32 (decimal)
305 11xxxxxx - Label string pointer
306 10xxxxxx - Reserved
307 01xxxxxx - Reserved
308
3094.2. NAME SERVICE PACKETS
310
3114.2.1. GENERAL FORMAT OF NAME SERVICE PACKETS
312
313 The NetBIOS Name Service packets follow the packet structure defined
314 in the Domain Name Service (DNS) <A HREF="/rfcs/rfc883.html">RFC 883</A> [7 (pg 26-31)]. The
315 structures are compatible with the existing DNS packet formats,
316 however, additional types and codes have been added to work with
317 NetBIOS.
318
319 If Name Service packets are sent over a TCP connection they are
320 preceded by a 16 bit unsigned integer representing the length of the
321 Name Service packet.

1072 An end node responding to a NAME QUERY REQUEST always responds
1073 with the AA and RA bits set for both the NEGATIVE and POSITIVE
1074 NAME QUERY RESPONSE packets. An end node never sends a REDIRECT
1075 NAME QUERY RESPONSE packet.
1076
1077 When the requestor receives the REDIRECT NAME QUERY RESPONSE it
1078 must reiterate the NAME QUERY REQUEST to the NBNS specified by
1079 the NSD_IP_ADDR field of the A type RESOURCE RECORD in the
1080 ADDITIONAL section of the response packet. This is an optional
1081 packet for the NBNS.
1082
1083 The NSD_NAME and the RR_NAME in the ADDITIONAL section of the
1084 response packet are the same name. Space can be optimized if
1085 label string pointers are used in the RR_NAME which point to the
1086 labels in the NSD_NAME.
1087
1088 The RR_NAME in the AUTHORITY section is the name of the domain
1089 the NBNS called by NSD_NAME has authority over.

1116 to wait longer to complete. The RR_NAME is the name from the
1117 request, if any. If no name is available from the request then
1118 it is a null name, single byte of zero.
1119
1120 The TTL field of the ResourceRecord is the new time to wait, in
1121 seconds, for the request to complete. The RDATA field contains
1122 the OPCODE and NM_FLAGS of the request.
1123
1124 A TTL value of 0 means that the NBNS can not estimate the time it
1125 may take to complete a response.

1266
1267 All session service messages are sent over a TCP connection.
1268
1269 All session packets are of the following general structure:
1270
1271 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 3 3
1272 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1

1277 / TRAILER (Packet Type Dependent) /
1278 | |
1279 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
1280
1281 The TYPE, FLAGS, and LENGTH fields are present in every session
1282 packet.
1283
1284 The LENGTH field is the number of bytes following the LENGTH
1285 field. In other words, LENGTH is the combined size of the
1286 TRAILER field(s). For example, the POSITIVE SESSION RESPONSE
1287 packet always has a LENGTH field value of zero (0000) while the
1288 RETARGET SESSION RESPONSE always has a LENGTH field value of six
1289 (0006).
1290
1291 One of the bits of the FLAGS field acts as an additional, high-
1292 order bit for the LENGTH field. Thus the cumulative size of the
1293 trailer field(s) may range from 0 to 128K bytes.
1294
1295 Session Packet Types (in hexidecimal):
1296
1297 00 - SESSION MESSAGE
1298 81 - SESSION REQUEST
1299 82 - POSITIVE SESSION RESPONSE
1300 83 - NEGATIVE SESSION RESPONSE
1301 84 - RETARGET SESSION RESPONSE

15255. PROTOCOL DESCRIPTIONS
1526
15275.1. NAME SERVICE PROTOCOLS
1528
1529 A REQUEST packet is always sent to the well known UDP port -
1530 NAME_SERVICE_UDP_PORT. The destination address is normally
1531 either the IP broadcast address or the address of the NBNS - the
1532 address of the NBNS server it set up at initialization time. In
1533 rare cases, a request packet will be sent to an end node, e.g. a
1534 NAME QUERY REQUEST sent to "challenge" a node.
1535
1536 A RESPONSE packet is always sent to the source UDP port and
1537 source IP address of the request packet.
1538
1539 A DEMAND packet must always be sent to the well known UDP port -
1540 NAME_SERVICE_UDP_PORT. There is no restriction on the target IP
1541 address.
1542
1543 Terms used in this section:
1544
1545 tid - Transaction ID. This is a value composed from
1546 the requestor's IP address and a unique 16 bit
1547 value generated by the originator of the
1548 transaction.

2321
2322 M nodes behavior is similar to that of P nodes with the addition
2323 of some B node-like broadcast actions. M node name service
2324 proceeds in two steps:
2325
2326 1.Use broadcast UDP based name service. Depending on the
2327 operation, goto step 2.
2328
2329 2.Use directed UDP name service.
2330
2331 The following code for M nodes is exactly the same as for a P
2332 node, with the exception that broadcast operations are done
2333 before P type operation is attempted.

3175 - SSN_RETRY_COUNT - The maximum number TCP connection attempts
3176 allowable per a single NetBIOS call request.

3178 - SSN_CLOSE_TIMEOUT is the time period to wait when closing the
3179 NetBIOS session before killing the TCP connection if session

3182 The following are Defined Constants for the NetBIOS Session
3183 Service. (See "Defined Constants and Variables" in the Detailed

3186 - SSN_SRVC_TCP_PORT - is the globally well-known TCP port
3187 allocated for the NetBIOS Session Service. The service accepts
3188 TCP connections on this port to establish NetBIOS Sessions.
3189 The TCP connection established to this port by the caller is
3190 initially used for the exchange of NetBIOS control information.

35405.3. NetBIOS DATAGRAM SERVICE PROTOCOLS
3541
3542 The following are GLOBAL variables and should be NetBIOS user
3543 configurable:
3544
3545 - SCOPE_ID: the non-leaf section of the domain name preceded by a
3546 '.' which represents the domain of the NetBIOS scope for the
3547 NetBIOS name. The following protocol description only supports
3548 single scope operation.
3549
3550 - MAX_DATAGRAM_LENGTH: the maximum length of an IP datagram. The
3551 minimal maximum length defined in for IP is 576 bytes. This
3552 value is used when determining whether to fragment a NetBIOS
3553 datagram. Implementations are expected to be capable of
3554 receiving unfragmented NetBIOS datagrams up to their maximum
3555 size.
3556
3557 - BROADCAST_ADDRESS: the IP address B-nodes use to send datagrams
3558 with group name destinations and broadcast datagrams. The
3559 default is the IP broadcast address for a single IP network.
3560
3561 The following are Defined Constants for the NetBIOS Datagram
3562 Service:
3563
3564 - DGM_SRVC_UDP_PORT: the globally well-known UDP port allocated
3565 where the NetBIOS Datagram Service receives UDP packets. See
3566 section 6, "Defined Constants", for its value.
