TEAS Working Group Internet-Draft This document defines a YANG data model for the provisioning and management of Traffic Engineering (TE) tunnels, Label Switched Paths (LSPs), and interfaces. The model covers data that is independent of any technology or dataplane encapsulation and is divided into two YANG modules that cover device-specific, and device independent data. This model covers data for configuration, operational state, remote procedural calls, and event notifications.

Introduction YANG and is a data modeling language that was introduced to define the contents of a conceptual data store that allows networked devices to be managed using NETCONF . YANG has proved relevant beyond its initial confines, as bindings to other interfaces (e.g. RESTCONF ) and encoding other than XML (e.g. JSON) are being defined. Furthermore, YANG data models can be used as the basis of implementation for other interfaces, such as CLI and programmatic APIs. This document describes a YANG data model for Traffic Engineering (TE) tunnels, Label Switched Paths (LSPs), and interfaces. The data model is divided into two YANG modules. The 'ietf-te' module includes data that is generic and device independent, while the 'ietf-te-device' module includes data that is device-specific. The document describes a high-level relationship between the modules defined in this document, as well as other external protocol YANG modules. The TE generic YANG data model does not include any data specific to a signaling protocol. It is expected other data plane technology models will augment the TE generic YANG data model. Also, it is expected that other YANG modules that model TE signaling protocols, such as RSVP-TE (, ), or Segment-Routing TE (SR-TE) will augment the generic TE YANG module.

Terms and Conventions

Terminology The following terms are defined in and are used in this specification: client configuration data state data This document also makes use of the following terminology introduced in the YANG Data Modeling Language : augment data model data node

Model Tree Diagrams The tree diagrams extracted from the modules defined in this document are given in subsequent sections as per the syntax defined in .

Design Considerations This document describes a generic TE YANG data model that is independent of any dataplane technology. One of the design objectives is to allow specific data plane technology models to reuse the TE generic data model and possibly augment it with technology specific data. The elements of the generic TE YANG data model, including TE Tunnels, LSPs, and interfaces have leafs that identify the technology layer where they reside. For example, the LSP encoding type can identify the technology associated with a TE Tunnel or LSP. Also, the generic TE YANG data model does not cover signaling protocol data. The signaling protocols used to instantiate TE LSPs are outside the scope of this document and expected to be covered by augmentations defined in other documents. The following other design considerations are taken into account with respect to data organization: The device independent TE data is defined in the 'ietf-te' module, and can be used to manage data off a device, such as a TE controller. When the model is used to manage a specific device, the model contains the TE Tunnels originating from the specific device. When the model is used to manage a TE controller, the 'tunnel' list contains all TE Tunnels and TE tunnel segments originating from devices that the TE controller manages. The device-specific TE data is defined in the 'ietf-te-device' module. Minimal elements in the model are designated as "mandatory" to allow freedom to vendors to adapt the data model to their specific product implementation. Suitable defaults are specified for all configurable elements. Where TE functions or features might be optional within the deployed TE network, the model declares them as optional.

State Data Organization The Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA) addresses modeling state data for ephemeral objects. This document adopts the NMDA model for configuration and state data representation as per IETF guidelines for new IETF YANG data models.

Model Overview The data models defined in this document cover the core TE features that are commonly supported by different vendor implementations. The support of extended or vendor specific TE features is expected to either be in augmentations, or deviations to this model that are defined in separate documents.

Module Relationship The generic TE YANG data model defined in the 'ietf-te' module covers the building blocks that are device independent and agnostic of any specific technology or control plane instances. The TE device YANG data model defined in the 'ietf-te-device' module augments the 'ietf-te' module and covers data that is specific to a device -- for example, attributes of TE interfaces, or TE timers that are local to a TE node. The TE data models for specific instances of data plane technology and signaling protocols are outside the scope of this document. They could be defined in separate YANG modules that augment the generic TE YANG data model.

TE YANG Model The generic TE YANG data model defined in the 'ietf-te' module supports the management and operation of a TE network. This includes creating, modifying, and retrieving information about TE Tunnels, LSPs, and interfaces and their associated attributes (e.g. Administrative-Groups, SRLGs, etc.). A full tree diagram of the TE YANG data model is shown in .

Module Structure The 'te' container is the top level container in the 'ietf-te' module. The presence of the 'te' container enables TE function system-wide. Further descriptions of containers that exist under the 'te' top level container are provided in the following sections. The three containers grouped under the 'te' container as shown in and described below. globals:

The 'globals' container maintains the set of global TE attributes that can be applicable to TE Tunnels and interfaces. Refer to for further details.

tunnels:

The 'tunnels' container includes the list of TE Tunnels that are instantiated. Refer to for further details on the properties of a TE Tunnel.

lsps:

The 'lsps' container includes the list of TE LSPs that are instantiated for TE Tunnels. Refer to for further details on the properties of a TE LSP.

The model also contains two Remote Procedure Calls (RPCs) as shown in and described below. tunnels-path-compute:

An RPC to request path computation for a specific TE Tunnel. The RPC allows requesting path computation using atomic and stateless operation. A tunnel may also be configured in 'compute-only' mode to provide stateful path updates - see for further details.

tunnels-action:

An RPC to request a specific action (e.g. reoptimize, or tear-and-setup) to be taken on a specific tunnel or all tunnels.

TE Globals The 'globals' container covers properties that control a TE feature's behavior system-wide, and its respective state as shown in and described in the text that follows.

named-admin-groups:

A YANG container for the list of named (extended) administrative groups that may be applied to TE links.

named-srlgs:

A YANG container for the list of named Shared Risk Link Groups (SRLGs) that may be applied to TE links.

named-path-constraints:

A YANG container for a list of named path constraints. Each named path constraint is composed of a set of constraints that can be applied during path computation. A named path constraint can be applied to multiple TE Tunnels. Path constraints may also be specified directly under the TE Tunnel. The path constraints specified under the TE Tunnel take precedence over the path constraints derived from the referenced named path constraint. A named path constraint entry can be formed of the path constraints shown in :

name: A YANG leaf that holds the named path constraint entry. This is unique in the list and used as a key. te-bandwidth: A YANG container that holds the technology agnostic TE bandwidth constraint. link-protection: A YANG leaf that holds the link protection type constraint required for the links to be included in the computed path. setup/hold priority: YANG leafs that hold the LSP setup and hold admission priority as defined in . signaling-type: A YANG leaf that holds the LSP setup type, such as RSVP-TE or SR. path-metric-bounds: A YANG container that holds the set of metric bounds applicable on the computed TE tunnel path. path-affinities-values: A YANG container that holds the set of affinity values and mask to be used during path computation. path-affinity-names: A YANG container that holds the set of named affinity constraints and corresponding inclusion or exclusion instructions for each to be used during path computation. path-srlgs-lists: A YANG container that holds the set of SRLG values and corresponding inclusion or exclusion instructions to be used during path computation. path-srlgs-names: A YANG container that holds the set of named SRLG constraints and corresponding inclusion or exclusion instructions for each to be used during path computation. disjointness: The level of resource disjointness constraint that the secondary path of a TE tunnel has to adhere to. explicit-route-objects: A YANG container that holds path constraints in the form of route entries present in the following two lists: 'route-object-exclude-always': a list of route entries that are always excluded from the path computation. The exclusion of a route entry in this list during path computation is not order sensitive. The route entries in this list have a 'strict' hop-type as described in section 3.1. 'route-object-include-exclude': a list of route entries to include or exclude for the path computation. For route entries in this list that are to be excluded, the hop-type is only allowed to be 'strict' as described in section 3.1.
The constraint type (include or exclude) is specified with each route entry. The path computation considers route entry constraints in the order they appear in this list. Once a route entry constraint is consumed from this list, it is not considered any further in the computation of the TE path.
The 'route-object-include-exclude' is used to configure constraints on which route objects (e.g., nodes, links) are included or excluded in the path computation.
The interpretation of an empty 'route-object-include-exclude' list depends on the TE Tunnel (end-to-end or Tunnel Segment) and on the specific path, according to the following rules:
An empty 'route-object-include-exclude' list for the primary path of an end-to-end TE Tunnel indicates that there are no route objects to be included or excluded in the path computation. An empty 'route-object-include-exclude' list for the primary path of a TE Tunnel Segment indicates that no primary LSP is required for that TE Tunnel Segement. An empty 'route-object-include-exclude' list for a reverse path means it always follows the forward path (i.e., the TE Tunnel is co-routed). When the 'route-object-include-exclude' list is not empty, the reverse path is routed independently of the forward path. An empty 'route-object-include-exclude' list for the secondary (forward) path of a TE Tunnel segment indicates that the secondary path has the same endpoints as the primary path. path-in-segment: A YANG container that contains a list of label restrictions that have to be taken into considerations when stitching to another tunnel segment such as at a domain boundary. The TE tunnel segment in this case is being stitched to the upstream TE tunnel segment. path-out-segment: A YANG container that contains a list of label restrictions that have to be taken into considerations when stitching to another tunnel segment such as at a domain boundary. The TE tunnel segment in this case is being stitched to the downstream TE tunnel segment.

TE Tunnels The 'tunnels' container holds the list of TE Tunnels that are provisioned on ingress Label Egress Router (LER) devices in the network as shown in .

When the model is used to manage a specific device, the 'tunnel' list contains the TE Tunnels originating from the specific device. When the model is used to manage a TE controller, the 'tunnel' list contains all TE Tunnels and TE tunnel segments originating from devices that the TE controller manages. The TE Tunnel model allows the configuration and management of the following TE tunnel objects: TE Tunnel:

A YANG container of one or more TE LSPs established between the source and destination TE Tunnel termination points.

TE Path:

An engineered path that once instantiated in the forwarding plane can be used to forward traffic from the source to the destination TE Tunnel termination points.

TE LSP:

A TE LSP is a connection-oriented service established over a TE Path and that allows the delivery of traffic between the TE Tunnel source and destination termination points.

TE Tunnel Segment:

A segment of a TE Tunnel that is stitched with other segments in order to provision an end-to-end tunnel.

The TE Tunnel has a number of attributes that are set directly under the tunnel (as shown in ). The main attributes of a TE Tunnel are described below: name:

A YANG leaf that holds the name of a TE Tunnel. The name of the TE Tunnel uniquely identifies the tunnel within the TE tunnel list. The name of the TE Tunnel can be formatted as a Uniform Resource Indicator (URI) by including the namespace to ensure uniqueness of the name among all the TE Tunnels present on devices and controllers. The configured TE Tunnels can be reported with the name of the device embedded within the TE Tunnel name. For TE Tunnels initiated by the controller, the controller is responsible to ensure that TE Tunnel names are unique.

alias:

A YANG leaf that holds an alternate name to the TE tunnel. Unlike the TE tunnel name, the alias can be modified at any time during the lifetime of the TE tunnel.

identifier:

A YANG leaf that holds an identifier of the tunnel. This identifier is unique among tunnels originated from the same ingress device.

color:

A YANG leaf that holds the color associated with the TE tunnel. The color is used to map or steer services that carry matching color onto the TE tunnel as described in .

admin-state:

A YANG leaf that holds the tunnel administrative state.

operational-state:

A YANG leaf that holds the tunnel operational state.

encoding/switching:

The 'encoding' and 'switching-type' are YANG leafs that define the specific technology in which the tunnel operates in as described in .

source/destination:

YANG containers that hold the tunnel source and destination node endpoint identities, including:

te-node-id: A YANG leaf that holds the TE node identifier (as defined in ) of the source or destination of the TE Tunnel. node-id: A YANG leaf that holds the node identifier (as defined in ) of the source or destination of the TE Tunnel. tunnel-tp-id: A YANG leaf that holds the identifier of the source or destination of the TE Tunnel Termination Points (TTPs) as defined in . The TTP identifiers are optional on nodes that have a single TTP per node. For example, TTP identifiers are optional for packet (IP/MPLS) routers.

bidirectional:

A YANG leaf that when present indicates the LSP of a TE Tunnel is bidirectional as defined in .

controller:

A YANG container that holds tunnel data relevant to an optional external TE controller that may initiate or control a tunnel. This target node may be augmented by external modules, for example, to add data for Path Computation Element Protocol (PCEP) initiated and/or delegated tunnels.

reoptimize-timer:

A YANG leaf to set the interval period for tunnel reoptimization.

association-objects:

A YANG container that holds the set of associations of the TE Tunnel to other TE Tunnels. Associations at the TE Tunnel level apply to all paths of the TE Tunnel. The TE tunnel associations can be overridden by associations configured directly under the TE Tunnel path.

protection:

A YANG container that holds the TE Tunnel protection properties.

restoration:

A YANG container that holds the TE Tunnel restoration properties.

te-topology-identifier:

A YANG container that holds the topology identifier associated with the topology where paths for the TE tunnel are computed as defined in .

network-id:

A YANG leaf that can optionally be used to identify the network topology where paths for the TE tunnel are computed as defined in .

hierarchy:

A YANG container that holds hierarchy related properties of the TE Tunnel. A TE LSP can be set up in MPLS or Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) networks to be used as a TE link to carry traffic in other (client) networks . In this case, the model introduces the TE Tunnel hierarchical link endpoint parameters to identify the specific link in the client layer that the underlying TE Tunnel is associated with. The hierarchy container includes the following:

dependency-tunnels: A hierarchical set of TE Tunnels either provisioned or to be provisioned in the immediate lower layer, upon which the current TE Tunnel relies for multi-layer path computation. A dependency TE Tunnel is provisioned if it has been selected by path computation to support at least one client-layer TE Tunnel. When a dependency TE Tunnel is provisioned, it makes the TE link operational in the client layer's network topology, enabling the provisioning of TE Tunnels in the client layer.

hierarchical-link: A YANG container that holds the identity of the hierarchical link (in the client layer) that is supported by this TE Tunnel. The endpoints of the hierarchical link are defined by TE tunnel source and destination node endpoints. The hierarchical link can be identified by its source and destination link termination point identifiers.

primary-paths:

A YANG container that holds the list of primary paths. A primary path is identified by 'name'. A primary path is selected from the list to instantiate a primary forwarding LSP for the tunnel. The list of primary paths is visited by order of preference. A primary path has the following attributes:

primary-reverse-path: A YANG container that holds properties of the primary reverse path. The reverse path is applicable to bidirectional TE Tunnels.

candidate-secondary-paths: A YANG container that holds a list of candidate secondary paths which may be used for the primary path to support path protection. The candidate secondary paths reference paths from the tunnel secondary paths list. The preference of the secondary paths is specified within the list and dictates the order of visiting the secondary path from the list. The attributes of a secondary path can be defined separately from the primary path. The attributes of a secondary path will be inherited from the associated 'active' primary when not explicitly defined for the secondary path.

secondary-paths:

A YANG container that holds the set of secondary paths. A secondary path is identified by 'name'. A secondary path can be referenced from the TE Tunnel's 'candidate-secondary-path' list.

secondary-reverse-paths:

A YANG container that holds the set of secondary reverse paths. A secondary reverse path is identified by 'name'. A secondary reverse path can be referenced from the TE Tunnel's 'candidate-secondary-reverse-paths' list. A secondary reverse path is modeled with the same data attributes as those of the primary path.

The following set of common path attributes are shared for primary (forward and reverse) and secondary paths: path-computation-method:

A YANG leaf that specifies the method used for computing the TE path.

path-computation-server:

A YANG container that holds the path computation server properties when the path is externally queried.

compute-only:

A path of a TE Tunnel is, by default, provisioned so that it can be instantiated in the forwarding plane so that it can carry traffic. In some cases, a TE path may be configured only for the purpose of computing a path and reporting it without the need to instantiate the LSP or commit any resources. In such a case, the path is configured in 'compute-only' mode to distinguish it from the default behavior. A 'compute-only' path is configured as usual with the associated per-path constraints and properties on a device or TE controller. The device or TE controller computes the feasible paths subject to configured constraints. A client may query the 'compute-only' computed path properties 'on-demand', or alternatively, can subscribe to be notified of computed paths and whenever the path properties change.

use-path-computation:

A YANG leaf that indicates whether or not path computation is to be used for a specified path.

lockdown:

A YANG leaf that when set indicates the existing path should not be globally repaired or reoptimized.

path-scope:

A YANG leaf that specifies whether the path is a segment or an end-to-end path.

preference:

A YANG leaf that specifies the preference for the path, used to choose between paths in a list. The lower the number, the higher the preference. Paths with the same preference are treated as equal and other methods are used to choose between them.

k-requested-paths:

A YANG leaf that specifies the number of k-shortest-paths requested from the path computation server and returned sorted by its optimization objective.

association-objects:

A YANG container that holds a list of tunnel association properties.

optimizations:

A YANG container that holds the optimization objectives that path computation will use to select a path.

named-path-constraint:

A YANG leafref that references an entry from the global list of named path constraints.

te-bandwidth:

A YANG container that holds the path bandwidth (see ).

link-protection:

A YANG leaf that specifies the link protection type required for the links to be included in the computed path (see ).

computed-paths-properties:

A YANG container that holds properties for the list of computed paths.

computed-path-error-infos:

A YANG container that holds the list of path computation error information. The TE system populates entries in this list whenever an error is encountered during the computation of the TE path.

path-compute-info:

A YANG grouping that contains leafs representing the path attributes that are passed to the TE path computation engine to be considered during the path computation. This includes: path constraints, path optimization objectives, and path associations Note, unless overridden under a specific path of the TE tunnel, the TE tunnel's primary path constraints, optimization objectives, and associations are inherited by the primary reverse path, secondary path and secondary reverse path.

lsps:

A YANG container that holds a list of LSPs that have been instantiated for this specific path.

In addition to the path common attributes, the primary path has the following attributes that are not present in the secondary path: Only the primary path contains the list of 'candidate-secondary-paths' that can protect the primary path. Only the primary path can contain a primary-reverse-path associated with the primary path (and its associated list of 'candidate-secondary-reverse-path'). lsp-provisioning-error-infos:

A YANG container that holds the list of LSP provisioning error information. The TE system populates entries in this list whenever an error is encountered during the LSP provisioning.

TE LSPs The 'lsps' container includes the set of TE LSPs that have been instantiated. A TE LSP is identified by a 3-tuple ('tunnel-name', 'lsp-id', 'node'). When the model is used to manage a specific device, the 'lsps' list contains all TE LSPs that traverse the device (including ingressing, transiting and egressing the device). When the model is used to manage a TE controller, the 'lsps' list contains the TE LSPs on devices managed by the controller that act as ingress, and may optionally include TE LSPs on devices managed by the controller that act as transit or egress role.

TE Device YANG Model

The device TE YANG module 'ietf-te-device' models data that is specific to
managing a TE device.  This module augments the generic TE YANG module.

Module Structure

The 'ietf-te-device' modufle defines the configuration and operational state data
that is specific to the device, including those related to the TE subsystem, tunnels, LSPs, and interfaces.

TE Device Globals, Tunnels and LSPs

The 'ietf-te-device' module augments the generic 'ietf-te' module at the
'globals', 'tunnels', and 'lsps' levels to include the device-specific
configurations and operational state.

 shows the
'ietf-te-device' subtree generated with depth=4 that describes those
augmentations.



The following is the description of the augmented data at each level.

  lsp-cleanup-interval
  
  :
  
    An optional leaf that specifies the delay time, in seconds, before an LSP is completely removed from the system after it is no longer in use.
  
  lsp-invalidation-interval
  
  :
  
    An optional leaf that specifies the delay time, in seconds, during which a TE LSP's path is considered invalid before any corrective action is taken.

  lsp-cleanup-interval
  
  :
  
    An optional leaf that specifies the delay time, in seconds, for this specific TE Tunnel before its LSPs are cleaned up. This value can override the global lsp-cleanup-interval.
  
  lsp-invalidation-interval
  
  :
  
    An optional leaf that specifies the delay time, in seconds, for this specific TE Tunnel during which its path is considered invalid before action is taken. This value can override the global lsp-invalidation-interval.
  


LSP Device-Dependent State (Augmenting /te:te/te:lsps/te:lsp).

These are read-only operational state parameters providing device-specific details for individual LSPs:


  lsp-timers
  
  :
  
    A container that holds various timer-related operational state for an LSP, applicable primarily to ingress LSPs.
  
  uptime
  
  :
  
    An optional leaf that indicates the total time, in seconds, that the LSP has been operational.

    An optional leaf that indicates the remaining time, in seconds, for a new LSP to be fully instantiated and ready to carry traffic.
  
  time-to-destroy
  
  :
  
    An optional leaf that indicates the remaining time, in seconds, before an existing LSP is torn down.
  
  downstream-info
  
  :
  
    A container that holds information about the downstream neighbor and label for the LSP, applicable when the LSP is not at its egress.
  
  upstream-info
  
  :
  
    A container that holds information about the upstream neighbor and label for the LSP, applicable when the LSP is not at its ingress.
  



TE Device Interfaces

 shows the TE interface subtree from the TE device module 'ietf-te-device' with depth=4.
The full tree diagram is shown in .



The main elements under the interfaces container are:

threshold-type:


  An optional enumeration that specifies the type of thresholding mechanism used for flooding bandwidth updates for all TE interfaces on the device. Options include 'delta' (flooding on a change greater than a specified delta) or 'threshold-crossed' (flooding when bandwidth crosses a defined threshold).


delta-percentage:


  An optional percentage value, used when threshold-type is 'delta', indicating the change in reservable bandwidth that triggers an IGP update for all TE interfaces.


threshold-specification:


  An optional enumeration, used when threshold-type is 'threshold-crossed', to define whether a single set of 'mirrored-up-down' thresholds or separate 'separate-up-down' thresholds are used for increasing and decreasing bandwidth. This applies globally to all TE interfaces.


up-thresholds:

Notifications

Notifications are a key component of any topology data model.

 and  define a subscription mechanism and a push
mechanism for YANG datastores.  These mechanisms currently allow the
user to:


  Subscribe to notifications on a per-client basis.
  Specify subtree filters or XML Path Language (XPath) filters so
that only contents of interest will be sent.
  Specify either periodic or on-demand notifications.



IANA Considerations

.
Following the format in , the following registrations are
requested to be made.



This document registers two YANG modules in the YANG Module Names

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) to these data nodes without
proper protection can have a negative effect on network operations. These are
the subtrees and data nodes and their sensitivity/vulnerability:

"/te/globals":  This module specifies the global TE configurations on a device.
Unauthorized access to this container could cause the device to ignore packets
it should receive and process.

"/te/tunnels":  This list specifies the configuration and state of TE Tunnels
present on the device or controller.  Unauthorized access to this list could
cause the device to ignore packets it should receive and process. An attacker
may also use state to derive information about the network topology,
and subsequently orchestrate further attacks.

"/te/interfaces":  This list specifies the configuration and state TE interfaces
on a device. Unauthorized access to this list could cause the device to ignore packets it
should receive and process.

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:

"/te/lsps": this list contains information state about established LSPs in the network.
An attacker can use this information to derive information about the network topology,
and subsequently orchestrate further attacks.

Some of the RPC operations in this YANG module may be considered sensitive or
vulnerable in some network environments. It is thus important to control access
to these operations. These are the operations and their
sensitivity/vulnerability:

"/te/tunnels-actions": using this RPC, an attacker can modify existing paths that
may be carrying live traffic, and hence result in interruption to services
carried over the network.

"/te/tunnels-path-compute": using this RPC, an attacker can retrieve sensitive
information about the network provider which can be used to orchestrate further
attacks.

The security considerations spelled out in the YANG 1.1 specification
 apply for this document as well.

    RSVP-TE: Extensions to RSVP for LSP Tunnels
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
      This document describes the use of RSVP (Resource Reservation Protocol), including all the necessary extensions, to establish label-switched paths (LSPs) in MPLS (Multi-Protocol Label Switching). Since the flow along an LSP is completely identified by the label applied at the ingress node of the path, these paths may be treated as tunnels. A key application of LSP tunnels is traffic engineering with MPLS as specified in RFC 2702. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
    
  
  
  



  
    YANG - A Data Modeling Language for the Network Configuration Protocol (NETCONF)
    
    
    
      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]
    
  
  
  



  
    Network Configuration Protocol (NETCONF)
    
    
    
    
    
    
      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]
    
  
  
  



  
    Common YANG Data Types

    Procedures for Dynamically Signaled Hierarchical Label Switched Paths
    
    
    
    
      Label Switched Paths (LSPs) set up in Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) or Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) networks can be used to form links to carry traffic in those networks or in other (client) networks.
      Protocol mechanisms already exist to facilitate the establishment of such LSPs and to bundle traffic engineering (TE) links to reduce the load on routing protocols. This document defines extensions to those mechanisms to support identifying the use to which such LSPs are to be put and to enable the TE link endpoints to be assigned addresses or unnumbered identifiers during the signaling process.

    RESTCONF Protocol
    
    
    
    
    
      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).

    The YANG 1.1 Data Modeling Language
    
    
    
      YANG is a data modeling language used to model configuration data, state data, Remote Procedure Calls, and notifications for network management protocols. This document describes the syntax and semantics of version 1.1 of the YANG language. YANG version 1.1 is a maintenance release of the YANG language, addressing ambiguities and defects in the original specification. There are a small number of backward incompatibilities from YANG version 1. This document also specifies the YANG mappings to the Network Configuration Protocol (NETCONF).
    
  
  
  



  
    Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching (GMPLS) Signaling Resource ReserVation Protocol-Traffic Engineering (RSVP-TE) Extensions
    
    
    
      This document describes extensions to Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) Resource ReserVation Protocol - Traffic Engineering (RSVP-TE) signaling required to support Generalized MPLS. Generalized MPLS extends the MPLS control plane to encompass time-division (e.g., Synchronous Optical Network and Synchronous Digital Hierarchy, SONET/SDH), wavelength (optical lambdas) and spatial switching (e.g., incoming port or fiber to outgoing port or fiber). This document presents a RSVP-TE specific description of the extensions. A generic functional description can be found in separate documents. [STANDARDS-TRACK]

    Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA)
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
      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.
    
  
  
  



  
    The BGP Tunnel Encapsulation Attribute
    
    
    
    
    
    
      This document defines a BGP path attribute known as the "Tunnel Encapsulation attribute", which can be used with BGP UPDATEs of various Subsequent Address Family Identifiers (SAFIs) to provide information needed to create tunnels and their corresponding encapsulation headers. It provides encodings for a number of tunnel types, along with procedures for choosing between alternate tunnels and routing packets into tunnels.
      This document obsoletes RFC 5512, which provided an earlier definition of the Tunnel Encapsulation attribute. RFC 5512 was never deployed in production. Since RFC 5566 relies on RFC 5512, it is likewise obsoleted. This document updates RFC 5640 by indicating that the Load-Balancing Block sub-TLV may be included in any Tunnel Encapsulation attribute where load balancing is desired.

    Label Switched Paths (LSP) Hierarchy with Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching (GMPLS) Traffic Engineering (TE)
    
    
    
    
      To improve scalability of Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching (GMPLS) it may be useful to aggregate Label Switched Paths (LSPs) by creating a hierarchy of such LSPs. A way to create such a hierarchy is by (a) a Label Switching Router (LSR) creating a Traffic Engineering Label Switched Path (TE LSP), (b) the LSR forming a forwarding adjacency (FA) out of that LSP (by advertising this LSP as a Traffic Engineering (TE) link into the same instance of ISIS/OSPF as the one that was used to create the LSP), (c) allowing other LSRs to use FAs for their path computation, and (d) nesting of LSPs originated by other LSRs into that LSP (by using the label stack construct).
      This document describes the mechanisms to accomplish this. [PROPOSED STANDARD]
    
  
  
  



  
    RSVP-TE Extensions in Support of End-to-End Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching (GMPLS) Recovery
    
    
    
    
    
      This document describes protocol-specific procedures and extensions for Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching (GMPLS) Resource ReSerVation Protocol - Traffic Engineering (RSVP-TE) signaling to support end-to-end Label Switched Path (LSP) recovery that denotes protection and restoration. A generic functional description of GMPLS recovery can be found in a companion document, RFC 4426. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
    
  
  
  



  
    RSVP ASSOCIATION Object Extensions
    
    
    
    
    
      The RSVP ASSOCIATION object was defined in the context of GMPLS-controlled Label Switched Paths (LSPs). In this context, the object is used to associate recovery LSPs with the LSP they are protecting. This object also has broader applicability as a mechanism to associate RSVP state. This document defines how the ASSOCIATION object can be more generally applied. This document also defines Extended ASSOCIATION objects that, in particular, can be used in the context of the MPLS Transport Profile (MPLS-TP). This document updates RFC 2205, RFC 3209, and RFC 3473. It also generalizes the definition of the Association ID field defined in RFC 4872. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
    
  
  
  



  
    OSPF Traffic Engineering (TE) Metric Extensions
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
      In certain networks, such as, but not limited to, financial information networks (e.g., stock market data providers), network performance information (e.g., link propagation delay) is becoming critical to data path selection.
      This document describes common extensions to RFC 3630 "Traffic Engineering (TE) Extensions to OSPF Version 2" and RFC 5329 "Traffic Engineering Extensions to OSPF Version 3" to enable network performance information to be distributed in a scalable fashion. The information distributed using OSPF TE Metric Extensions can then be used to make path selection decisions based on network performance.
      Note that this document only covers the mechanisms by which network performance information is distributed. The mechanisms for measuring network performance information or using that information, once distributed, are outside the scope of this document.
    
  
  
  



  
    IS-IS Traffic Engineering (TE) Metric Extensions
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
      In certain networks, such as, but not limited to, financial information networks (e.g., stock market data providers), network-performance criteria (e.g., latency) are becoming as critical to data-path selection as other metrics.
      This document describes extensions to IS-IS Traffic Engineering Extensions (RFC 5305). These extensions provide a way to distribute and collect network-performance information in a scalable fashion. The information distributed using IS-IS TE Metric Extensions can then be used to make path-selection decisions based on network performance.
      Note that this document only covers the mechanisms with which network-performance information is distributed. The mechanisms for measuring network performance or acting on that information, once distributed, are outside the scope of this document.
      This document obsoletes RFC 7810.
    
  
  
  



  
    Optimizations of Label Switched Path State Synchronization Procedures for a Stateful PCE
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
      A stateful Path Computation Element (PCE) has access to not only the information disseminated by the network's Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) but also the set of active paths and their reserved resources for its computation. The additional Label Switched Path (LSP) state information allows the PCE to compute constrained paths while considering individual LSPs and their interactions. This requires a State Synchronization mechanism between the PCE and the network, the PCE and Path Computation Clients (PCCs), and cooperating PCEs. The basic mechanism for State Synchronization is part of the stateful PCE specification. This document presents motivations for optimizations to the base State Synchronization procedure and specifies the required Path Computation Element Communication Protocol (PCEP) extensions.
    
  
  
  



  
    MPLS Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) Linear Protection to Match the Operational Expectations of Synchronous Digital Hierarchy, Optical Transport Network, and Ethernet Transport Network Operators
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
      This document describes alternate mechanisms to perform some of the functions of MPLS Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) linear protection defined in RFC 6378, and also defines additional mechanisms. The purpose of these alternate and additional mechanisms is to provide operator control and experience that more closely models the behavior of linear protection seen in other transport networks.
      This document also introduces capabilities and modes for linear protection. A capability is an individual behavior, and a mode is a particular combination of capabilities. Two modes are defined in this document: Protection State Coordination (PSC) mode and Automatic Protection Switching (APS) mode.
      This document describes the behavior of the PSC protocol including priority logic and state machine when all the capabilities associated with the APS mode are enabled.
      This document updates RFC 6378 in that the capability advertisement method defined here is an addition to that document.
    
  
  
  



  
    Updates to MPLS Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) Linear Protection in Automatic Protection Switching (APS) Mode
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
      This document contains updates to MPLS Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) linear protection in Automatic Protection Switching (APS) mode defined in RFC 7271. The updates provide rules related to the initialization of the Protection State Coordination (PSC) Control Logic (in which the state machine resides) when operating in APS mode and clarify the operation related to state transition table lookup.
    
  
  
  



  
    Extended Administrative Groups in MPLS Traffic Engineering (MPLS-TE)
    
    
    
      MPLS Traffic Engineering (MPLS-TE) advertises 32 administrative groups (commonly referred to as "colors" or "link colors") using the Administrative Group sub-TLV. This is defined for OSPFv2 (RFC 3630), OSPFv3 (RFC 5329) and IS-IS (RFC 5305).
      This document adds a sub-TLV to the IGP TE extensions, "Extended Administrative Group". This sub-TLV provides for additional administrative groups (link colors) beyond the current limit of 32.

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.

    Network Configuration Access Control Model
    
    
    
    
      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.

    Segment Routing Policy Architecture
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
      Segment Routing (SR) allows a node to steer a packet flow along any path. Intermediate per-path states are eliminated thanks to source routing. SR Policy is an ordered list of segments (i.e., instructions) that represent a source-routed policy. Packet flows are steered into an SR Policy on a node where it is instantiated called a headend node. The packets steered into an SR Policy carry an ordered list of segments associated with that SR Policy.
      This document updates RFC 8402 as it details the concepts of SR Policy and steering into an SR Policy.
    
  
  
  



  
    Exclude Routes - Extension to Resource ReserVation Protocol-Traffic Engineering (RSVP-TE)
    
    
    
    
    
      This document specifies ways to communicate route exclusions during path setup using Resource ReserVation Protocol-Traffic Engineering (RSVP-TE).
      The RSVP-TE specification, "RSVP-TE: Extensions to RSVP for LSP Tunnels" (RFC 3209) and GMPLS extensions to RSVP-TE, "Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching (GMPLS) Signaling Resource ReserVation Protocol-Traffic Engineering (RSVP-TE) Extensions" (RFC 3473) allow abstract nodes and resources to be explicitly included in a path setup, but not to be explicitly excluded.
      In some networks where precise explicit paths are not computed at the head end, it may be useful to specify and signal abstract nodes and resources that are to be explicitly excluded from routes. These exclusions may apply to the whole path, or to parts of a path between two abstract nodes specified in an explicit path. How Shared Risk Link Groups (SRLGs) can be excluded is also specified in this document. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
    
  
  
  



  
    Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching (GMPLS) Architecture
    
    
    
      Future data and transmission networks will consist of elements such as routers, switches, Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) systems, Add-Drop Multiplexors (ADMs), photonic cross-connects (PXCs), optical cross-connects (OXCs), etc. that will use Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching (GMPLS) to dynamically provision resources and to provide network survivability using protection and restoration techniques.
      This document describes the architecture of GMPLS. GMPLS extends MPLS to encompass time-division (e.g., SONET/SDH, PDH, G.709), wavelength (lambdas), and spatial switching (e.g., incoming port or fiber to outgoing port or fiber). The focus of GMPLS is on the control plane of these various layers since each of them can use physically diverse data or forwarding planes. The intention is to cover both the signaling and the routing part of that control plane. [STANDARDS-TRACK]

Generalized MPLS extends the MPLS control plane to encompass time-division (e.g., Synchronous Optical Network and Synchronous Digital Hierarchy, SONET/SDH), wavelength (optical lambdas) and spatial switching (e.g., incoming port or fiber to outgoing port or fiber). This document presents a RSVP-TE specific description of the extensions. A generic functional description can be found in separate documents. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
    
  
  
  



  
    Recovery (Protection and Restoration) Terminology for Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching (GMPLS)
    
    
    
    
      This document defines a common terminology for Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching (GMPLS)-based recovery mechanisms (i.e., protection and restoration). The terminology is independent of the underlying transport technologies covered by GMPLS. This memo provides information for the Internet community.
    
  
  
  





    






Data Tree Examples

This section contains examples of use of the model with RESTCONF  and JSON encoding.

For the example we will use a 4-node MPLS network were RSVP-TE MPLS Tunnels can be setup. The
loopbacks of each router are shown. The network in  will be used in the examples
described in the following sections.



Basic Tunnel Setup

This example uses the TE Tunnel YANG data model defined in this document to create an
RSVP-TE signaled Tunnel of packet LSP encoding type. First, the TE Tunnel is created with no specific restrictions or constraints (e.g., protection or restoration).
The TE Tunnel ingresses on router A and egresses on router D.

In this case, the TE Tunnel is created without specifying additional information about the primary paths.




Global Named Path Constraints

This example uses the YANG data model to create a 'named path constraint' that can be referenced by TE Tunnels.
The path constraint, in this case, limits the TE Tunnel hops for the computed path.




Tunnel with Global Path Constraint

In this example, the previously created 'named path constraint' is applied to the TE Tunnel created in .




Tunnel with Per-tunnel Path Constraint

In this example, the a per-tunnel path constraint is explicitly indicated under the TE Tunnel created in  to constrain the computed path for the tunnel.




Tunnel State

In this example, the 'GET' query is sent to return the state stored about the tunnel.



The request, with status code 200 would include, for example, the following json:




Example TE Tunnel with Primary and Secondary Paths



Below is the state retrieved for a TE tunnel from source 192.0.2.1 to 192.0.2.5
with primary, secondary, reverse, and secondary reverse paths as shown in .




Example Multi-domain TE Tunnel with Primary and Secondary Paths



The following state is retrieved for a multi-domain TE tunnel, where both the
primary and secondary paths consist of TE tunnel segments, as shown in .
In each domain, a TE tunnel segment is established to form the complete end-to-end TE path.
The nodes (192.0.2.100) and (192.0.2.200) form the multi-domain end-to-end source and destination
respectively. The nodes (192.0.2.1), (192.0.2.2), (192.0.2.3), and (192.0.2.4) act as domain
border nodes and transit nodes for the end-to-end TE tunnel LSPs.
