Operations and Management Operations and Management Area Working Group Slice Service L3VPN L2VPN This document specifies a network model for attachment circuits. The model can be used for the provisioning of attachment circuits prior or during service provisioning (e.g., Network Slice Service). A companion service model is specified in I-D.ietf-opsawg-teas-attachment-circuit. The module augments the Service Attachment Point (SAP) model with the detailed information for the provisioning of attachment circuits in Provider Edges (PEs). Discussion Venues Discussion of this document takes place on the Operations and Management Area Working Group Working Group mailing list (opsawg@ietf.org), which is archived at . Source for this draft and an issue tracker can be found at .

Introduction Connectivity services are provided by networks to customers via dedicated terminating points, such as Service Functions , customer edges (CEs), peer Autonomous System Border Routers (ASBRs), data centers gateways, or Internet Exchange Points. The procedure to provision a service in a service provider network may depend on the practices adopted by a service provider, including the flow put in place for the provisioning of advanced network services and how they are bound to an Attachment Circuit (AC). For example, the same attachment circuit may host multiple services (e.g., Layer 2 Virtual Private Network (VPN), Slice Service, or Layer 3 VPN). In order to avoid service interference and redundant information in various locations, a service provider may expose an interface to manage ACs network-wide. Customers can then request a standalone attachment circuit to be put in place, and then refer to that attachment circuit when requesting services to be bound to that AC. specifies a data model for managing attachment circuits as a service. specifies a network model for attachment circuits ("ietf-ac-ntw"). The model can be used for the provisioning of ACs prior or during service provisioning. The document leverages and by adopting an AC provisioning structure that uses data nodes that are defined in these RFCs. Some refinements were introduced to cover, not only conventional service provider networks, but also specifics of other target deployments (cloud, for example). The AC network model is designed as an augmnetation to the Service Attachment Point (SAP) model . An attachment circuit can be bound to a single or multiple SAPs. Likewise, the model is designed to accomdate deployments where a SAP can be bound to one or multiple ACs (e.g., a parent AC and its child ACs).

Attachment Circuits Examples

The AC network model uses the AC common model defined in . The YANG data model in this document conforms to the Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA) defined in . Sample examples are provided in .

Conventions and Definitions The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14 when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here. The reader should be familiar with the terms defined in . This document uses the term "network model" as defined in . The meanings of the symbols in the YANG tree diagrams are defined in . In addition, this document uses the following terms:

Bearer:

A physical or logical link that connects a customer node (or site) to a provider network.

A bearer can be a wireless or wired link. One or multiple technologies can be used to build a bearer. The bearer type can be specified by a customer.

The operator allocates a unique bearer reference to identify a bearer within its network (e.g., customer line identifier). Such a reference can be retrieved by a customer and then used in subsequent service placement requests to unambiguously identify where a service is to be bound.

The concept of bearer can be generalized to refer to the required underlying connection for the provisioning of an attachment circuit.

One or multiple attachment circuits may be hosted over the same bearer (e.g., multiple Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) on the same bearer that is provided by a physical link).

Network controller:

Denotes a functional entity responsible for the management of the service provider network. One or multiple network controllers can be deployed in a service provider network.

Service orchestrator:

Refers to a functional entity that interacts with the customer of a network service.

A service orchestrator is typically responsible for the attachment circuits, the Provider Edge (PE) selection, and requesting the activation of the requested services to a network controller.

A service orchestrator may interact with one or more network controllers.

Service provider network:

A network that is able to provide network services (e.g., L2VPN, L3VPN, or Network Slice Services).

Service provider:

A service provider that offers network services (e.g., L2VPN, L3VPN, or Network Slice Services).

Sample Uses of the Attachment Circuit Data Models shows the positioning of the AC network model in the overall service delivery process. The "ietf-ac-ntw" is a network model which augments the SAP with a comprehensive set of parameters to reflect the attachment circuits that are in place in a network. The model also maintains the mapping with the service references that are used to expose these ACs to customers. Whether the same naming conventions to reference an AC are used in the service and network layers is deployment-specific.

An Example of the Network AC Model Usage

Description of the Attachment Circuit YANG Module The full tree diagram of the module can be generated using the "pyang" tool . That tree is not included here because it is too long (). Instead, subtrees are provided in the following subsections for the reader's convenience.

Overall Structure of the Module The overall tree structure of the module is shown in .

The full tree of the 'ac-ntw' is provided in . A node can host one or more SAPs. As per , a SAP is an abstraction of the network reference points (the PE side of an AC, in the context of this document) where network services can be delivered and/or are delivered to customers. Each SAP terminates one or multiple ACs. Each AC in turn may be terminated by one or more peer SAPs ('peer-sap'). In order to expose such AC/SAP binding information, the SAP model is augmented with required AC-related information. Unlike the AC service model , an AC is uniquely identified by a name within the scope of a node, not a network. A textual description of the AC may be provided ('description'). Also, in order to ease the correlation between the AC exposed at the service layer and the one that is actually provisioned in the network operation, a reference to the AC exposed to the customer ('ac-svc-ref') is stored in the 'ietf-ac-ntw' module. A controller may indicate a filter based on the service type (e.g., Network Slice or L3VPN) to retrieve the list of available ACs for that service. In order to factorize common data that is provisioned for a group of ACs, a set of profiles () can be defined at the network level, and then called under the node level. The information contained in a profile is thus inherited, unless the corresponding data node is refined at the AC level. In such a case, the value provided at the AC level takes precedence over the global one. In contexts where the same AC is terminated by multiple peer SAPs (e.g., an AC with multiple CEs) but a subset of them have specific information, the module allows operators to:

• Define a parent AC that may list all these CEs as peer SAPs.
• Create individual ACs that are bound to the parent AC using 'ac-parent-ref'.
• Indicate for each individual ACs one or a subset of the CEs as peer SAPs. All these individual ACs will inherit the properties of the parent AC.

Whenever a parent AC is deleted, then all child ACs of that AC MUST be deleted. An AC may belong to one or multiple groups . For example, the 'group-id' is used to associate redundancy or protection constraints with ACs. The status of an AC can be tracked using 'status'. Both operational status and administrative status are maintained. A mismatch between the administrative status vs. the operational status can be used as a trigger to detect anomalies. An AC can be characterized using Layer 2 connectivity (), Layer 3 connectivity (), routing protocols (), OAM (), security (), and service () considerations.

Provisioning Profiles The specific provisioning profiles tree structure is shown in .

Profiles Tree Structure

The exact definition of these profiles is local to each service provider. The model only includes an identifier for these profiles in order to ease identifying and binding local policies when building an AC. As shown in , the following identifiers can be included:

'encryption-profile-identifier':

An encryption profile refers to a set of policies related to the encryption schemes and setup that can be applied on the AC.

'qos-profile-identifier':

A Quality of Service (QoS) profile refers to a set of policies such as classification, marking, and actions (e.g., ).

'bfd-profile-identifier':

A Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) profile refers to a set of BFD policies that can be invoked when building an AC.

'forwarding-profile-identifier':

A forwarding profile refers to the policies that apply to the forwarding of packets conveyed over an AC. Such policies may consist of, for example, applying Access Control Lists (ACLs).

'routing-profile-identifier':

A routing profile refers to a set of routing policies that will be invoked (e.g., BGP policies) for an AC.

L2 Connection The 'l2-connection' container is used to manage the Layer 2 properties of an AC. The Layer 2 connection tree structure is shown in .

Layer 2 Connection Tree Structure

The 'encapsulation' container specifies the Layer 2 encapsulation to use (if any) and allows the configuration of the relevant tags. Also, the model supports tag manipulation operations (e.g., tag rewrite). The 'l2-tunnel-service' container is used to specify the required parameters to set a Layer tunneling service (e.g., a Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS), a Virtual eXtensible Local Area Network (VXLAN), or a pseudowire ()). 'l2vpn-id' is used to identify a L2VPN service that is associated with an Integrated Routing and Bridging (IRB) interface. To accommodate implementations that require internal bridging, a local bridge reference can be specified in 'local-bridge-reference'. Such a reference may be a local bridge domain. A reference to the bearer is maintained using 'bearer-reference'.

IP Connection This 'ip-connection' container is used to group Layer 3 connectivity information, particularly the IP addressing information, of an AC. The Layer 3 connection tree structure is shown in .

IP Connection Tree Structure

A distinct Layer 3 interface other than the interface indicated under the 'l2-connection' container may be needed to terminate the Layer 3 connectivity. The identifier of such an interface is included in 'l3-termination-point'. For example, this data node can be used to carry the identifier of a bridge domain interface. This container can include IPv4, IPv6, or both if dual-stack is enabled. For both IPv4 and IPv6, the IP connection supports three IP address assignment modes for customer addresses: provider DHCP, DHCP relay, and static addressing. Note that for the IPv6 case, Stateless Address Autoconfiguration (SLAAC) can be used. For both IPv4 and IPv6, 'address-allocation-type' is used to indicate the IP address allocation mode to activate for an AC. The allocated address represents the PE interface address configuration. When 'address-allocation-type' is set to 'provider-dhcp', DHCP assignments can be made locally or by an external DHCP server. Such behavior is controlled by setting 'dhcp-service-type'. For IPv6, if 'address-allocation-type' is set to 'slaac', the Prefix Information option of Router Advertisements that will be issued for SLAAC purposes will carry the IPv6 prefix that is determined by 'local-address' and 'prefix-length'. For example, if 'local-address' is set to '2001:db8:0:1::1' and 'prefix-length' is set to '64', the IPv6 prefix that will be used is '2001:db8:0:1::/64'. In some deployment contexts (e.g., network merging), multiple IP subnets may be used in a transition period. For such deployments, multiple ACs (typically, two) with overlapping information may be maintained during a transition period. The correlation between these ACs may rely upon the same "ac-svc-ref".

Routing The overall routing subtree structure is shown in .

Routing Tree Structure

Multiple routing instances ('routing-protocol') can be defined, each uniquely identified by an 'id'. Specifically, each instance is uniquely identified to accommodate scenarios where multiple instances of the same routing protocol have to be configured on the same AC. The type of a routing instance is indicated in 'type'. The values of this attribute are those defined in (the 'routing-protocol-type' identity). Specific data nodes are then provided as a function of the 'type'. See more details in the following subsections. One or multiple routing profiles ('routing-profiles') can be provided for a given routing instance.

Static Routing The static routing subtree structure is shown in .

The following data nodes can be defined for a given IP prefix:

'lan-tag':

Indicates a local tag (e.g., "myfavorite-lan") that is used to enforce local policies.

'next-hop':

Indicates the next hop to be used for the static route.

Both timers are expressed in seconds.

'authentication':

The module adheres to the recommendations in , as it allows enabling the TCP Authentication Option (TCP-AO) and accommodates the installed base that makes use of MD5. In addition, the module includes a provision for using IPsec.

This version of the model assumes that parameters specific to the TCP-AO are preconfigured as part of the key chain that is referenced in the model. No assumption is made about how such a key chain is preconfigured. However, the structure of the key chain should cover data nodes beyond those in , mainly SendID and RecvID ().

Security Considerations The YANG module specified in this document defines a schema for data that is designed to be accessed via network management protocols such as NETCONF or RESTCONF . The lowest NETCONF layer is the secure transport layer, and the mandatory-to-implement secure transport is Secure Shell (SSH) . The lowest RESTCONF layer is HTTPS, and the mandatory-to-implement secure transport is TLS . The Network Configuration Access Control Model (NACM) provides the means to restrict access for particular NETCONF or RESTCONF users to a preconfigured subset of all available NETCONF or RESTCONF protocol operations and content. There are a number of data nodes defined in this YANG module that are writable/creatable/deletable (i.e., config true, which is the default). These data nodes may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. Write operations (e.g., edit-config) and delete operations to these data nodes without proper protection or authentication can have a negative effect on network operations. These are the subtrees and data nodes and their sensitivity/ vulnerability in the "ietf-ac-ntw" module:

'specific-provisioning-profiles':

This container includes a set of sensitive data that influence how an AC is delivered. For example, an attacker who has access to these data nodes may be able to manipulate routing policies, QoS policies, or encryption properties. These data nodes are defined with "nacm:default-deny- write" tagging .

'ac':

An attacker who is able to access network nodes can undertake various attacks, such as modify the attributes of an AC (e.g., QoS, bandwidth, routing protocols, keying material), leading to malfunctioning of services that are delivered over that AC and therefore to Service Level Agreement (SLA) violations. In addition, an attacker could attempt to add a new AC. : In addition to using NACM to prevent unauthorized access, such activity can be detected by adequately monitoring and tracking network configuration changes.

Some of the readable data nodes in this YANG module may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. It is thus important to control read access (e.g., via get, get-config, or notification) to these data nodes. These are the subtrees and data nodes and their sensitivity/vulnerability in the "ietf-ac-svc" module:

'ac':

Unauthorized access to this subtree can disclose the identity of a customer 'peer-sap-id'.

'l2-connection' and 'ip-connection':

An attacker can retrieve privacy-related information, which can be used to track a customer. Disclosing such information may be considered a violation of the customer-provider trust relationship.

'keying-material':

An attacker can retrieve the cryptographic keys protecting an AC (routing, in particular). These keys could be used to inject spoofed routing advertisements.

Several data nodes ('bgp', 'ospf', 'isis', and 'rip') rely upon for authentication purposes. As such, the AC network module inherits the security considerations discussed in Section 5 of . Also, these data nodes support supplying explicit keys as strings in ASCII format. The use of keys in hexadecimal string format would afford greater key entropy with the same number of key-string octets. However, such a format is not included in this version of the AC network model, because it is not supported by the underlying device modules (e.g., ).

IANA Considerations IANA is requested to register the following URI in the "ns" subregistry within the "IETF XML Registry" : IANA is requested to register the following YANG module in the "YANG Module Names" subregistry within the "YANG Parameters" registry:

References Normative References IEEE Orange Juniper Telefonica Nokia Huawei Technologies This document specifies a YANG service data model for Attachment Circuits (ACs). This model can be used for the provisioning of ACs before or during service provisioning (e.g., Network Slice Service). The document also specifies a service model for managing bearers over which ACs are established. Also, the document specifies a set of reusable groupings. Whether other service models reuse structures defined in the AC models or simply include an AC reference is a design choice of these service models. Utilizing the AC service model to manage ACs over which a service is delivered has the advantage of decoupling service management from upgrading AC components to incorporate recent AC technologies or features. As a complement to the Layer 3 Virtual Private Network Service Model (L3SM), which is used for communication between customers and service providers, this document defines an L3VPN Network Model (L3NM) that can be used for the provisioning of Layer 3 Virtual Private Network (L3VPN) services within a service provider network. The model provides a network-centric view of L3VPN services. The L3NM is meant to be used by a network controller to derive the configuration information that will be sent to relevant network devices. The model can also facilitate communication between a service orchestrator and a network controller/orchestrator. This document defines an L2VPN Network Model (L2NM) that can be used to manage the provisioning of Layer 2 Virtual Private Network (L2VPN) services within a network (e.g., a service provider network). The L2NM complements the L2VPN Service Model (L2SM) by providing a network-centric view of the service that is internal to a service provider. The L2NM is particularly meant to be used by a network controller to derive the configuration information that will be sent to relevant network devices. Also, this document defines a YANG module to manage Ethernet segments and the initial versions of two IANA-maintained modules that include a set of identities of BGP Layer 2 encapsulation types and pseudowire types. This document defines a YANG data model for representing an abstract view of the provider network topology that contains the points from which its services can be attached (e.g., basic connectivity, VPN, network slices). Also, the model can be used to retrieve the points where the services are actually being delivered to customers (including peer networks). This document augments the 'ietf-network' data model defined in RFC 8345 by adding the concept of Service Attachment Points (SAPs). The SAPs are the network reference points to which network services, such as Layer 3 Virtual Private Network (L3VPN) or Layer 2 Virtual Private Network (L2VPN), can be attached. One or multiple services can be bound to the same SAP. Both User-to-Network Interface (UNI) and Network-to-Network Interface (NNI) are supported in the SAP data model. Orange Juniper Telefonica Nokia Huawei Technologies The document specifies a common Attachment Circuits (ACs) YANG module, which is designed with the intent to be reusable by other models. For example, this common model can be reused by service models to expose ACs as a service, service models that require binding a service to a set of ACs, network and device models to provision ACs, etc. Datastores are a fundamental concept binding the data models written in the YANG data modeling language to network management protocols such as the Network Configuration Protocol (NETCONF) and RESTCONF. This document defines an architectural framework for datastores based on the experience gained with the initial simpler model, addressing requirements that were not well supported in the initial model. This document updates RFC 7950. In many standards track documents several words are used to signify the requirements in the specification. These words are often capitalized. This document defines these words as they should be interpreted in IETF documents. This document specifies an Internet Best Current Practices for the Internet Community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements. RFC 2119 specifies common key words that may be used in protocol specifications. This document aims to reduce the ambiguity by clarifying that only UPPERCASE usage of the key words have the defined special meanings. This document defines a common YANG module that is meant to be reused by various VPN-related modules such as Layer 3 VPN and Layer 2 VPN network models. This document describes a protocol intended to detect faults in the bidirectional path between two forwarding engines, including interfaces, data link(s), and to the extent possible the forwarding engines themselves, with potentially very low latency. It operates independently of media, data protocols, and routing protocols. [STANDARDS-TRACK] Layer 2 services (such as Frame Relay, Asynchronous Transfer Mode, and Ethernet) can be emulated over an MPLS backbone by encapsulating the Layer 2 Protocol Data Units (PDUs) and then transmitting them over pseudowires (PWs). It is also possible to use pseudowires to provide low-rate Time-Division Multiplexed and Synchronous Optical NETworking circuit emulation over an MPLS-enabled network. This document specifies a protocol for establishing and maintaining the pseudowires, using extensions to the Label Distribution Protocol (LDP). Procedures for encapsulating Layer 2 PDUs are specified in other documents. This document is a rewrite of RFC 4447 for publication as an Internet Standard. This document defines a YANG data model for configuring and managing routing policies in a vendor-neutral way. The model provides a generic routing policy framework that can be extended for specific routing protocols using the YANG 'augment' mechanism. This document describes a method by which a Service Provider may use an IP backbone to provide IP Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) for its customers. This method uses a "peer model", in which the customers' edge routers (CE routers) send their routes to the Service Provider's edge routers (PE routers); there is no "overlay" visible to the customer's routing algorithm, and CE routers at different sites do not peer with each other. Data packets are tunneled through the backbone, so that the core routers do not need to know the VPN routes. [STANDARDS-TRACK] Current specifications of BGP Extended Communities (RFC 4360) support the IPv4 Address Specific Extended Community, but do not support an IPv6 Address Specific Extended Community. The lack of an IPv6 Address Specific Extended Community may be a problem when an application uses the IPv4 Address Specific Extended Community, and one wants to use this application in a pure IPv6 environment. This document defines a new BGP attribute, the IPv6 Address Specific Extended Community, that addresses this problem. The IPv6 Address Specific Extended Community is similar to the IPv4 Address Specific Extended Community, except that it carries an IPv6 address rather than an IPv4 address. [STANDARDS TRACK] This document discusses the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), which is an inter-Autonomous System routing protocol. The primary function of a BGP speaking system is to exchange network reachability information with other BGP systems. This network reachability information includes information on the list of Autonomous Systems (ASes) that reachability information traverses. This information is sufficient for constructing a graph of AS connectivity for this reachability from which routing loops may be pruned, and, at the AS level, some policy decisions may be enforced. BGP-4 provides a set of mechanisms for supporting Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR). These mechanisms include support for advertising a set of destinations as an IP prefix, and eliminating the concept of network "class" within BGP. BGP-4 also introduces mechanisms that allow aggregation of routes, including aggregation of AS paths. This document obsoletes RFC 1771. [STANDARDS-TRACK] This document specifies the TCP Authentication Option (TCP-AO), which obsoletes the TCP MD5 Signature option of RFC 2385 (TCP MD5). TCP-AO specifies the use of stronger Message Authentication Codes (MACs), protects against replays even for long-lived TCP connections, and provides more details on the association of security with TCP connections than TCP MD5. TCP-AO is compatible with either a static Master Key Tuple (MKT) configuration or an external, out-of-band MKT management mechanism; in either case, TCP-AO also protects connections when using the same MKT across repeated instances of a connection, using traffic keys derived from the MKT, and coordinates MKT changes between endpoints. The result is intended to support current infrastructure uses of TCP MD5, such as to protect long-lived connections (as used, e.g., in BGP and LDP), and to support a larger set of MACs with minimal other system and operational changes. TCP-AO uses a different option identifier than TCP MD5, even though TCP-AO and TCP MD5 are never permitted to be used simultaneously. TCP-AO supports IPv6, and is fully compatible with the proposed requirements for the replacement of TCP MD5. [STANDARDS-TRACK] This document describes the key chain YANG data model. Key chains are commonly used for routing protocol authentication and other applications requiring symmetric keys. A key chain is a list containing one or more elements containing a Key ID, key string, send/accept lifetimes, and the associated authentication or encryption algorithm. By properly overlapping the send and accept lifetimes of multiple key chain elements, key strings and algorithms may be gracefully updated. By representing them in a YANG data model, key distribution can be automated. Many Service Providers offer Virtual Private Network (VPN) services to their customers, using a technique in which customer edge routers (CE routers) are routing peers of provider edge routers (PE routers). The Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is used to distribute the customer's routes across the provider's IP backbone network, and Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) is used to tunnel customer packets across the provider's backbone. This is known as a "BGP/MPLS IP VPN". The base specification for BGP/MPLS IP VPNs presumes that the routing protocol on the interface between a PE router and a CE router is BGP. This document extends that specification by allowing the routing protocol on the PE/CE interface to be the Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) protocol. This document updates RFC 4364. [STANDARDS-TRACK] Many Service Providers (SPs) offer Virtual Private Network (VPN) services to their customers using a technique in which Customer Edge (CE) routers are routing peers of Provider Edge (PE) routers. The Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is used to distribute the customer's routes across the provider's IP backbone network, and Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) is used to tunnel customer packets across the provider's backbone. Support currently exists for both IPv4 and IPv6 VPNs; however, only Open Shortest Path First version 2 (OSPFv2) as PE-CE protocol is specified. This document extends those specifications to support OSPF version 3 (OSPFv3) as a PE-CE routing protocol. The OSPFv3 PE-CE functionality is identical to that of OSPFv2 except for the differences described in this document. [STANDARDS-TRACK] This document describes means and mechanisms to provide authentication/confidentiality to OSPFv3 using an IPv6 Authentication Header/Encapsulating Security Payload (AH/ESP) extension header. [STANDARDS-TRACK] This document describes how the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Secure Hash Standard family of algorithms can be used with OSPF version 2's built-in, cryptographic authentication mechanism. This updates, but does not supercede, the cryptographic authentication mechanism specified in RFC 2328. [STANDARDS-TRACK] The current OSPFv2 cryptographic authentication mechanism as defined in RFCs 2328 and 5709 is vulnerable to both inter-session and intra- session replay attacks when using manual keying. Additionally, the existing cryptographic authentication mechanism does not cover the IP header. This omission can be exploited to carry out various types of attacks. This document defines changes to the authentication sequence number mechanism that will protect OSPFv2 from both inter-session and intra- session replay attacks when using manual keys for securing OSPFv2 protocol packets. Additionally, we also describe some changes in the cryptographic hash computation that will eliminate attacks resulting from OSPFv2 not protecting the IP header. Currently, OSPF for IPv6 (OSPFv3) uses IPsec as the only mechanism for authenticating protocol packets. This behavior is different from authentication mechanisms present in other routing protocols (OSPFv2, Intermediate System to Intermediate System (IS-IS), RIP, and Routing Information Protocol Next Generation (RIPng)). In some environments, it has been found that IPsec is difficult to configure and maintain and thus cannot be used. This document defines an alternative mechanism to authenticate OSPFv3 protocol packets so that OSPFv3 does not depend only upon IPsec for authentication. The OSPFv3 Authentication Trailer was originally defined in RFC 6506. This document obsoletes RFC 6506 by providing a revised definition, including clarifications and refinements of the procedures. This document specifies an extension of the Routing Information Protocol (RIP) to expand the amount of useful information carried in RIP messages and to add a measure of security. [STANDARDS-TRACK] This document specifies a routing protocol for an IPv6 internet. It is based on protocols and algorithms currently in wide use in the IPv4 Internet [STANDARDS-TRACK] This memo defines the Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) for IPv4 and IPv6. It is version three (3) of the protocol, and it is based on VRRP (version 2) for IPv4 that is defined in RFC 3768 and in "Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol for IPv6". VRRP specifies an election protocol that dynamically assigns responsibility for a virtual router to one of the VRRP routers on a LAN. The VRRP router controlling the IPv4 or IPv6 address(es) associated with a virtual router is called the Master, and it forwards packets sent to these IPv4 or IPv6 addresses. VRRP Master routers are configured with virtual IPv4 or IPv6 addresses, and VRRP Backup routers infer the address family of the virtual addresses being carried based on the transport protocol. Within a VRRP router, the virtual routers in each of the IPv4 and IPv6 address families are a domain unto themselves and do not overlap. The election process provides dynamic failover in the forwarding responsibility should the Master become unavailable. For IPv4, the advantage gained from using VRRP is a higher-availability default path without requiring configuration of dynamic routing or router discovery protocols on every end-host. For IPv6, the advantage gained from using VRRP for IPv6 is a quicker switchover to Backup routers than can be obtained with standard IPv6 Neighbor Discovery mechanisms. [STANDARDS-TRACK] This document introduces a collection of common data types to be used with the YANG data modeling language. This document obsoletes RFC 6021. This document defines a collection of common data types using the YANG data modeling language. These derived common types are designed to be imported by other modules defined in the routing area. This document defines a YANG data model for the management of network interfaces. It is expected that interface-type-specific data models augment the generic interfaces data model defined in this document. The data model includes definitions for configuration and system state (status information and counters for the collection of statistics). The YANG data model in this document conforms to the Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA) defined in RFC 8342. This document obsoletes RFC 7223. The Network Configuration Protocol (NETCONF) defined in this document provides mechanisms to install, manipulate, and delete the configuration of network devices. It uses an Extensible Markup Language (XML)-based data encoding for the configuration data as well as the protocol messages. The NETCONF protocol operations are realized as remote procedure calls (RPCs). This document obsoletes RFC 4741. [STANDARDS-TRACK] This document describes an HTTP-based protocol that provides a programmatic interface for accessing data defined in YANG, using the datastore concepts defined in the Network Configuration Protocol (NETCONF). This document describes a method for invoking and running the Network Configuration Protocol (NETCONF) within a Secure Shell (SSH) session as an SSH subsystem. This document obsoletes RFC 4742. [STANDARDS-TRACK] This document specifies version 1.3 of the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol. TLS allows client/server applications to communicate over the Internet in a way that is designed to prevent eavesdropping, tampering, and message forgery. This document updates RFCs 5705 and 6066, and obsoletes RFCs 5077, 5246, and 6961. This document also specifies new requirements for TLS 1.2 implementations. The standardization of network configuration interfaces for use with the Network Configuration Protocol (NETCONF) or the RESTCONF protocol requires a structured and secure operating environment that promotes human usability and multi-vendor interoperability. There is a need for standard mechanisms to restrict NETCONF or RESTCONF protocol access for particular users to a preconfigured subset of all available NETCONF or RESTCONF protocol operations and content. This document defines such an access control model. This document obsoletes RFC 6536. This document describes an IANA maintained registry for IETF standards which use Extensible Markup Language (XML) related items such as Namespaces, Document Type Declarations (DTDs), Schemas, and Resource Description Framework (RDF) Schemas. YANG is a data modeling language used to model configuration and state data manipulated by the Network Configuration Protocol (NETCONF), NETCONF remote procedure calls, and NETCONF notifications. [STANDARDS-TRACK] Informative References This document describes an architecture for the specification, creation, and ongoing maintenance of Service Function Chains (SFCs) in a network. It includes architectural concepts, principles, and components used in the construction of composite services through deployment of SFCs, with a focus on those to be standardized in the IETF. This document does not propose solutions, protocols, or extensions to existing protocols. Data models provide a programmatic approach to represent services and networks. Concretely, they can be used to derive configuration information for network and service components, and state information that will be monitored and tracked. Data models can be used during the service and network management life cycle (e.g., service instantiation, service provisioning, service optimization, service monitoring, service diagnosing, and service assurance). Data models are also instrumental in the automation of network management, and they can provide closed-loop control for adaptive and deterministic service creation, delivery, and maintenance. This document describes a framework for service and network management automation that takes advantage of YANG modeling technologies. This framework is drawn from a network operator perspective irrespective of the origin of a data model; thus, it can accommodate YANG modules that are developed outside the IETF. This document captures the current syntax used in YANG module tree diagrams. The purpose of this document is to provide a single location for this definition. This syntax may be updated from time to time based on the evolution of the YANG language. This document presents an object-oriented information model for representing Quality of Service (QoS) network management policies. This document is based on the IETF Policy Core Information Model and its extensions. It defines an information model for QoS enforcement for differentiated and integrated services using policy. It is important to note that this document defines an information model, which by definition is independent of any particular data storage mechanism and access protocol. This document specifies the steps a host takes in deciding how to autoconfigure its interfaces in IP version 6. The autoconfiguration process includes generating a link-local address, generating global addresses via stateless address autoconfiguration, and the Duplicate Address Detection procedure to verify the uniqueness of the addresses on a link. [STANDARDS-TRACK] This document defines Seamless Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (S-BFD), a simplified mechanism for using BFD with a large proportion of negotiation aspects eliminated, thus providing benefits such as quick provisioning, as well as improved control and flexibility for network nodes initiating path monitoring. This document updates RFC 5880. This document describes a data model for the management of the Routing Information Protocol (RIP). Both RIP version 2 and RIPng are covered. The data model includes definitions for configuration, operational state, and Remote Procedure Calls (RPCs). The YANG data model in this document conforms to the Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA).

Examples

VPLS Let's consider the example depicted in with two customer terminating points (CE1 and CE2). Let's also assume that the bearers to attach these CEs to the provider network are already in place. References to the identify these bearers are shown in the figure.

Topology Example

The AC service model can be used by the provider to manage and expose the ACs over existing bearers as shown in .

ACs Created Using ACaaS

The provisionned AC at PE1 can be retrieved using the AC network model as depicted in . A similar query can be used for the AC at PE2.

Example of AC Network Response (Message Body)

Parent AC In reference to the topology depicted in , PE2 has a SAP which terminates an AC with two peer SAPs (CE2 and CE5). In order to control data that is specific to each of these peer SAPs over the same AC, child ACs can be instantiated as depicted in .

Example of Child ACs
