Introduction Optical Transport Networks (OTN) is a mainstream layer 1 technology for the transport network. Over the years, it has continued to evolve, to improve its transport functions for the emerging requirements. The topology and tunnel information in the OTN has already been defined by generic traffic-engineering models and technology-specific models, including and . In the latest version of OTN, ITU-T G.709/Y.1331 Edition 6.5 , the fine grain OTN (fgOTN) is introduced for the efficient transmission of low rate client signals (e.g., sub-1G). This document presents the control interface requirements of fgOTN, and defines two YANG data models for fgOTN topology and fgOTN tunnel. The topology model can capture topological and resource-related information pertaining to fgOTN. The fgOTN tunnel YANG data model defined in this document is used for the provisioning and management of fgOTN Traffic Engineering (TE) tunnels and Label Switched Paths (LSPs). Furthermore, this document also imports the generic Layer 1 types defined in . The YANG data models defined in this document conform to the Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA) defined in .

Fine grain Optical Transport Network Scenarios Overview OTN network will cover a larger scope of networks, it may include the backbone network, metro core, metro aggregation, metro access, and even the OTN CPE in the customers' networks . In general, the metro OTN networks support both fgODUflex and ODUk switching. At the boundary nodes (e.g., metro-core nodes) of the metro OTN networks, the fgODUflexes to other metro OTN networks are multiplexed into ODUk of backbone networks. Therefore, the backbone OTN network could only support ODUk switching. The typical scenarios for fgOTN is to provide low bit rate private line or private network services for customers. The interface function requirements of fgOTN mainly include resource allocation and service provisioning. Three scenarios that require special consideration are listed based on the characteristics of fgOTN.

Retrieve Server Tunnels Scenario of fgOTN below shows an example of scenario to retrieve server tunnels for multi-domain fgOTN service. In this example, some small bandwidth fgOTN service are aggregated by the access ring (10G), and then aggregated into a bigger bandwidth in metro ring (100G). The allocation of TS to support fgOTN switching maybe different in access ring and metro ring. E.g. there could be three ODU0 allocated in the access ring while there could be two ODU2 are allocated in the metro ring to support fgOTN switching. In this example, the server layer ODUk tunnel for fgOTN tunnel from node A to node E is ODU0, and the server layer tunnel from node E to node G is ODU2. The server layer tunnel for fgOTN tunnel will include one ODU0 tunnel and one ODU2 tunnel.

The Scenario to Retrieve Server Tunnels

Multi-layer Path Splicing Scenario of fgOTN Not all nodes in the operator network support fgOTN, as shown in , node N-f5 and node N-f6 do not support fgOTN. To present the end-to-end primary-path and secondary-path of the services on the client side, it is necessary to complete the end-to-end path splicing based on the the ODU tunnel information associated with the fgotn tunnel.

Protection Scenario of fgOTN

Hitless Resizing Scenario of fgOTN defines the data plane procedure to support fgODUflex hitless resizing. The support of management of hitless resizing of fgODUflex needs to be carefully considered. The range of fgOTN service's Bandwidth on Demand (BoD) cannot exceed its server layer's bandwidth. The client needs to know how many bandwidth of a link is allocated for fgOTN. During the hitless resizing process, it is necessary to reserve or mark the corresponding bandwidth resources first, and then trigger the the resizing actions. Multi-domain hitless resizing should be supported. In the case of hitless resizing within a single domain, the "explicit route object" structure is not required. However, for multi-domain hitless resizing scenario, it is necessary to specify the ODUk TS and fgts numbers information on the ports of cross domain nodes in "explicit route objects" structure. For example, node 2 and node 3 in . When there are multiple cross domain fgOTN service hitless resizing, the MDSC coordinator needs to issue the service resizing instructions to the domain controllers where the service source and destination are located separately.

YANG Data Model for fine grain Optical Transport Network Overview In order to provide fgOTN capabilities, this document defines two YANG data models augmenting the OTN topology and the OTN tunnel YANG data models, as defined in and . As defined in Annex M of , fgOTN is defining a new path layer network which complements the existing OTN. Therefore:

• A single network topology instance is used to report both OTN and fgOTN topology information: fgOTN technology-specific attributes are therefore defined in the fgOTN topology model as augmentations of the OTN topology model, but without defining a new network type for fgOTN.
• The OTN tunnel model can be used to setup either an OTN or an fgOTN tunnel: fgOTN technology-specific attributes are therefore defined in the fgOTN tunnel model as augmentations of the OTN tunnel model, which are applicable only when the OTN tunnel is an fgOTN tunnel.

YANG Data Model for fgOTN Topology

Fine Grain OTN Topology Data Model Overview This document aims to describe the data model for fine grain OTN topology. The YANG module presented in this document augments from OTN topology data model, i.e., the ietf-otn-topology, as specified in . In section 6 of , the guideline for augmenting OTN topology model was provided, and in this draft, we augment the OTN topology model to describe the topology characteristics of fgOTN. Common types, identities and groupings defined in is reused in this document. defines an abstract (generic, or base) YANG data model for network/service topologies and inventories, and provides the fundamental model for . OTN topology module in augments from the TE topology YANG model defined in . shows the augmentation relationship.

Relationship between fgOTN topology and OTN topology model

The entities, TE attributes and OTN attributes, such as nodes, termination points and links, are still applicable for describing an fgOTN topology and the model presented in this document only specifies technology-specific attributes/information. The fgOTN-specific attributes including the fgTS, can be used to represent the bandwidth and label information. At the same time, it is necessary to extend the encoding and switching-capability enumeration values in to identify that the current Tunnel Termination Point (TTP) is a termination point of an fgOTN tunnel.

Termination Point Augmentation There are a few characteristics augmenting to the OTN topology. The fine grain tributary slot granularity (FGTSG) attribute defines the granularity, such as 10M, used by the TSs of a given OTN link. A boolean value is specified to augment the generic TE link termination point to describe whether the point can support fgOTN switching capability. The boolean value supported-fgotn-tp is used to indicate whether the termination point can support fgOTN switching capability.

Bandwidth Augmentation Based on the OTN topology model, we augment the bandwidth information of fgOTN, including the max-link-bandwidth and unreserved-bandwidth. The augmented parameter fgotn-bandwidth is used to indicate how much of the bandwidth has been allocated for the usage of fgOTN. For example, if 2 ODU0s are allocated to support fgOTN switching switching, the fgotn-bandwidth is 2500, and the unit is Mbps. The augmented fgotnlist structure is used to describe the unreserved TE bandwidth of fgOTN in the server ODUk. The odu-ts-number is used to indicate the index of server ODUk channel.

Label Augmentation The model augments the label-restriction list with fgOTN technology-specific label information using the otn-label-range-info grouping defined in . The fgts-range list is used to describe the availability of fgOTN timeslot in the server ODUk, including the fgts-reserved and fgts-unreserved. The odu-ts-number is used to indicate the index of server ODUk channel.

YANG Data Model for fgOTN Tunnel

Fine Grain OTN Tunnel Data Model Overview This document aims to describe the data model for fgOTN tunnel. The fgOTN tunnel model augments to OTN tunnel with fgOTN-specific parameters, including the bandwidth information and label information. shows the augmentation relationship.

Relationship between fgOTN and OTN tunnel model

It's also worth noting that the fgOTN tunnel provisioning is usually based on the fgOTN topology. Therefore the fgOTN tunnel model is usually used together with fgOTN topology model specified in this document. The OTN tunnel model also imports a few type modules, including ietf-layer1-types and ietf-te-types. A new identity based on odu-type should be defined for fgODUflex in an updated version of to indicate the bandwidth of fgotn tunnel.

Bandwidth Augmentation The model augment TE bandwidth information of fgOTN tunnel. The string value fgoduflex-bandwidth is used to indicate the bandwidth of this fgOTN tunnel.

Label Augmentation The module augments TE label-hop for the explicit route objects included or excluded by the path computation of the primary-paths and secondary-paths using the fgts-numbers. The fgts-numbers is used to specify fgTS information on inter-domain ports of the routing path. When specifying the fgotn time slot in the routing constraint information, the ODU time slot must also be specified. We also augment the TE label-hop for the record route of the LSP using the fgts-numbers.

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. 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). 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] 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 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.
