Introduction To improve network resource utilization and reduce operational expense, the Control-Plane and User-Plane separation concept is defined in Broadband Forum [TR-384]. The motivation for and architecture of the Control-Plane and User-Plane separation BNG is discussed in [I.D.cuspdt-rtgwg-cu-separation-bng-architecture]. This document describes an information model for the interface between the Control-Plane (CP) and the User-Plane (UP) separation in the CP / UP Separated BNG. This information model may involve both the control channel interface and the configuration channel interface. The interface for control channel allows the Control- Plane to send several flow tables to the User-Plane, such as user's information table, user's interface table, and user's QoS table, etc. And it also allows the User-Plane to report the resources and statistics information to the Control-Plane. The interface for configuration channel is in charge of the protocol version negotiation of protocols between the Control-Plane and User-Plane, the configuration for the devices of Control-Plane and User-Plane, and the report of User-Plane's capabilities, etc. The information model defined in this document enables supports defining a standardized data model. Such a data model can be used to define an interface to the CU separation BNG. 2. Concept and Terminology The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119]. 2.1. Terminology BNG: Broadband Network Gateway. A broadband remote access server (BRAS, B-RAS or BBRAS) routes traffic to and from broadband remote access devices such as digital subscriber line access multiplexers (DSLAM) on an Internet service provider's (ISP) network. BRAS can also be referred to as a Broadband Network Gateway (BNG). CP: Control Plane. CP is a user control management component which supports the management of UP's resources such as the user entry and forwarding policy Hu, et al. Expires April 25, 2019 [Page 3] Internet-Draft Infor Model for CU Separation October 2018 UP: User Plane. UP is a network edge and user policy implementation component. The traditional router's Control Plane and Forwarding Plane are both preserved on BNG devices in the form of a user plane. 3. Control Plane and User Plane Separation BNG Information Model Overview Briefly, a CU separation BNG is made up of a centralized CP and a set of UPs. The CP is a user control management component that manages UP's resources such as the user entry and forwarding policy, for example, the access bandwidth and priority management. The UP is a network edge and user policy implementation component. It can support the forwarding plane functions on traditional BNG devices, such as traffic forwarding, QoS, and traffic statistics collection, and it can also support the control plane functions on traditional BNG devices, such as routing, multicast, etc. Hu, et al.

CU Separated BNG The CU separated BNG is shown in Figure 1. The BNG Control Plane could be virtualized and centralized, which provides significant benefits such as centralized session management, flexible address allocation, high scalability for subscriber management capacity, and cost-efficient redundancy, etc. The functional components inside the BNG Service Control Plane can be implemented as Virtual Network Functions (VNFs) and hosted in a Network Function Virtualization Infrastructure (NFVI). The User Plane Management module in the BNG control plane centrally manages the distributed BNG User Planes (e.g. load balancing), as Hu, et al. Expires April 25, 2019 [Page 5] Internet-Draft Infor Model for CU Separation October 2018 well as the setup, deletion, maintenance of channels between Control Planes and User Planes. Other modules in the BNG control plane, such as address management, AAA, and etc., are responsible for the connection with outside subsystems in order to provide the service. The routing control and forwarding Plane in the BNG User Plane (local) could be distributed across the infrastructure. 3.1. Service Data Model Usage The idea of this information model is to propose a set of generic and abstract information models to be used in both Control Plane and User Planes. A typical scenario would be that this model can be used as a compendium to realize the communication between the Control Plane and User Planes of the CU separation BNG. Hu, et al.

CU Separation BNG As shown in Figure 2, when users access the BNG network, the control plane solicits these users' information (such as user's ID, user's MAC, user's access methods, for example via PPPoE/IPoE), associates them with available bandwidth which is reported by User planes, and based on the service's requirements generates a set of tables, which may include user's information, user's IP address, and QoS. Then the control plane can transmit these tables to the User planes. User planes receive these tables, parse them, matches these rules, and then performs corresponding actions. Hu, et al.
