X.670 (08/2004) i ITU-T Recommendation X.670 Use of registration agents to register names subordinate to country names in the X.660 RH-name-tree Summary This Recommendation specifies proce

8、dures for a registration agent that operates on behalf of international organizations to register organization names subordinate to country names. This Recommendation includes two annexes, one for registration of management domain names for use in (X.400) Originator/Recipient addresses, and one for

9、registration of organization names for use in (X.500) Directory distinguished names. Source ITU-T Recommendation X.670 was approved on 22 August 2004 by ITU-T Study Group 17 (2001-2004) under the ITU-T Recommendation A.8 procedure. ii ITU-T Rec. X.670 (08/2004) FOREWORD The International Telecommuni

10、cation Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a

11、 view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recomme

12、ndations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conc

13、iseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure e.g. interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendat

14、ion is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. I

15、NTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights

16、, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementors

17、are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database. ITU 2004 All rights reserved.

22、70 Use of registration agents to register names subordinate to country names in the X.660 RH-name-tree 1 Scope This Recommendation specifies requirements for the operation of registration agents operating on behalf of organizations to register the same organization name with multiple Registration Au

23、thorities operating on behalf of different countries to register the same name subordinate to several country names. The requirements specified in this Recommendation apply to any arcs in the registration-hierarchical-name-tree below which national Registration Authorities (Registration Authorities

24、operating on behalf of a country) may exist. These procedures may be useful for international organizations that need to register the same organization name with multiple countries. With this Recommendation, such an organization may use a registration agent to register a name in multiple countries.

37、 Rec. X.660 | ISO/IEC 9834-1 defines general procedures for registration that are independent of the object involved. It allows for other Recommendations or International Standards to define procedures that are specific to objects of a particular type. 5.2 An international organization that needs to

38、 register the same organization name with multiple countries may apply directly to each country, or submit a single application to a registration agent, defined in this Recommendation, that will act on behalf of the international organization to register the requested name with each of the countries

39、 indicated by the international organization. Once a name is successfully registered with multiple countries, the organization name may be used subordinate to each of these country names. NOTE An international organization may try to register a name as an international organization name, as specifie

40、d in ITU-T Rec. X.666 | ISO/IEC 9834-7. If successfully registered, the registered name may be used without specifying the country name. 5.3 This Recommendation specifies procedures for the registration agent that operates on behalf of international organizations to register various types of organiz

41、ation names. Names registered by a registration agent according to these procedures can only be used within the context of a country name. The terms “organization name“, “ADMD name“, and “PRMD name“ are used in this Recommendation in this context. 5.4 This Recommendation is used by a registration ag

42、ent that operates as a part of a registration process to register unambiguous organization name values as required for specific naming systems or for general purpose naming. 5.5 The following are examples of types of names for international organizations for which the provided procedures could be us

43、eful: Administration Management Domain (ADMD) names and Private Management Domain (PRMD) names for O/R addresses (X.400 addresses), trading partner names for EDI applications, and organization names for relative distinguished names (X.500 names). 5.6 This Recommendation can be used to register alpha

44、numeric and numeric values. 6 Registration agent 6.1 A registration agent operates on behalf of international organizations to register the same organization name with multiple countries. 6.2 The international organization may request the registration agent to register an organization name with all

45、countries (that established a national Registration Authority) or with specific countries indicated in the international organizations application to the registration agent. 6.3 A registration agent may charge a reasonable fee for the service provided. 4 ITU-T Rec. X.670 (08/2004) 7 Registration of

46、organization names 7.1 General 7.1.1 This clause specifies general procedures for the operation of the registration agent. The structure of the registration-hierarchical-name-tree (RH-name-tree) subordinate to a country name is a national decision and is outside the scope of this Recommendation. The

47、 registration agent that operates according to the procedures specified in this Recommendation performs an administrative role. 7.1.2 Applications are submitted to the registration agent by international organizations. The registration agent will then approach the national Registration Authorities i

48、n each country specified by the international organizations and attempt to register the name with each one. 7.1.3 This Recommendation does not specify or limit the format of names that can be registered for international organizations. Any limitation or conventions that do apply will be specified in

49、 the specifications for that name form (e.g., ITU-T Rec. X.501 | ISO/IEC 9594-2 for directory names), profiles or country-specific documents. 7.1.4 The process by which a national Registration Authority concludes whether to confirm or deny the use of the requested name value is outside the scope of this Recommendation. 7.1.5 If a national Registration Authority confirms the use of the requested name value, this registered organization name value can be used subordinate to that country name, for the use specified
