Abstract
This document defines the expression of Whois++ protocol (RFC 1835)
queries within MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions) (RFC
2046) media types. The intention of this document, in conjunction
with RFC 2958 is to enable MIME-enabled mail software, and other
systems using Internet media types, to carry out Whois++
transactions.
1. MIME Registration Information
To: iana@isi.edu
Subject: Registration of MIME media type application/whoispp-query
MIME Type name: Application
MIME subtype name: whoispp-query
Required parameters: none
Optional parameters: none
Encoding considerations: Any valid MIME encodings may be used
Security considerations: This content-type contains purely
descriptive information (i.e., no directives). There are security
considerations with regards to the appropriateness (privacy) of
information provided through the use of this content-type, and the

2. whoispp-query Syntax
The following grammar, which uses BNF-like notation as defined in
[RFC2234] defines the set of acceptable input to a Whois++ server.
As such, it describes the expected structure of a whoispp-query media
type object.
N.B.: As outlined in the ABNF definition, rule names and string
literals are in the US-ASCII character set, and are case-insensitive.
whois-command = ( system-command / terms [":" globalcnstrnts] )
nl
system-command = "constraints" / "describe" / "commands" /
"polled-by" / "polled-for" / "version" / "list" /
"show" [1*sp bytestring] / "help" [1*sp
bytestring] / "?" [bytestring]
terms = and-expr *("or" and-expr)
and-expr = not-expr *("and" not-expr)
not-expr = ["not"] (term / ( "(" terms ")" ))
term = ( generalterm / specificterm / combinedterm )
localcnstrnts
generalterm = bytestring
specificterm = specificname "=" bytestring
specificname = "handle" / "value" / "template"
combinedterm = attributename "=" bytestring
globalcnstrnts = globalcnstrnt *(";" globalcnstrnt)

RFC 2957 application/whoispp-query Content-Type October 2000
globalcnstrnt = "format" "=" format / "maxfull" "=" 1*digit /
"maxhits" "=" 1*digit / "case" "=" casevalue /
"search" "=" searchvalue / opt-globalcnst
opt-globalcnst = "authenticate" "=" auth-method / "language" "="
language / "incharset" "=" characterset /
"outcharset" "=" characterset / "ignore" "="

localcnstrnts = 0*(";" localcnstrnt)
localcnstrnt = "case" "=" casevalue / "search" "=" searchvalue
format = "full" / "abridged" / "handle" / "summary" /
"server-to-ask"
auth-method = bytestring
language = RFC1766 [ALVE95]>
characterset = "us-ascii" / "iso-8859-1" / "iso-8859-2" / "iso-
8859-3" / "iso-8859-4" / "iso-8859-5" / "iso-

8859-9" / "iso-8859-10" / "UNICODE-1-1-UTF-8" /
"UNICODE-2-0-UTF-8" "UTF-8"
;"UTF-8" is as defined in [RFC2279]. This is
;the character set label that should be used
;for UTF encoded information; the labels
;"UNICODE-2-0-UTF-8" and "UNICODE-1-1-UTF-8"
;are retained primarily for compatibility with
;older Whois++ servers (and as outlined in
;[RFC2279]).
searchvalue = "exact" / "substring" / "regex" / "fuzzy" /
"lstring"
casevalue = "ignore" / "consider"
bytestring = 0*charbyte
attributename = 1*attrbyte
attriblist = attributename 0*("," attributename)
charbyte = "\" specialbyte / normalbyte
normalbyte = <%d33-255, except specialbyte>
Daigle & Faltstrom Informational [Page 3]
RFC 2957 application/whoispp-query Content-Type October 2000
attrbyte = <%d33-127 except specialbyte> /
"\"
specialbyte = " " / tab / "=" / "," / ":" / ";" / "\" /
"*" / "." / "(" / ")" /
"[" / "]" / "^" /
"$" / "!" / "?"
tab = %d09
sp = %d32 ; space
digit = "0" / "1" / "2" / "3" / "4" /
"5" / "6" / "7" / "8" /
"9"
nl = %d13 %d10 ; CR LF
NOTE: Blanks that are significant to a query must be escaped. The
following characters, when significant to the query, may be preceded
and/or followed by a single blank:
: ; , ( ) = !
