Table of Contents

1. Introduction

This document introduces a YANG [RFC6020] [RFC6991] [I-D.draft-ietf-netmod-rfc6020bis] data model for Layer 3 network topologies, specifically Layer 3 Unicast. The model allows an application to have a holistic view of the topology of a Layer 3 network, all contained in a single conceptual YANG datastore.

The data model builds on top of, and augments, the data model for network topologies defined in [I-D.draft-ietf-i2rs-yang-network-topo]. An earlier revision of that Internet Draft contained not just the general model for network topologies, but also the model for layer 3 network topologies that is being specified here. However, we decided to "split" the earlier draft to separate the truly general aspects of a topology data model, which apply to any type of topology, from the application of this model to a particular domain, here: a Layer 3 network.

The document also shows how the model can be further refined to cover different Layer 3 Unicast topology types. For this purpose, example models are introduced that cover IS-IS [RFC1195] and OSPF [RFC2178]. Those examples are intended purely for illustrative purposes; we expect that full-blown IS-IS and OSPF models will be more comprehensive and refined than the examples shown here.

There are multiple applications for a topology data model. A number of use cases have been defined in section 6 of [I-D.draft-ietf-i2rs-usecase-reqs-summary]. For example, nodes within the network can use the data model to capture their understanding of the overall network topology and expose it to a network controller. A network controller can then use the instantiated topology data to compare and reconcile its own view of the network topology with that of the network elements that it controls. Alternatively, nodes within the network could propagate this understanding to compare and reconcile this understanding either amongst themselves or with help of a controller. Beyond the network element itself, a network controller might even use the data model to represent its view of the topology that it controls and expose it to applications north of itself.

There are several reasons to choose YANG to define the data model. Data defined using YANG can be exposed by a server to client applications and controllers via Netconf [RFC6241]. The fact that YANG can potentially be used with different protocols and interfaces provides for a degree of "future-proofing" of model implementations. Also, YANG can serve as the basis for model-driven toolchains, such as used in the Open Daylight project [OpenDaylight].

The data model for Layer 3 Unicast topologies defined in this document is specified in a YANG module "ietf-l3-unicast-topology". To do so, it augments general network topology model defined in [I-D.draft-ietf-i2rs-yang-network-topo] with information specific to Layer 3 Unicast. This way, the general topology model is extended to be able to meet the needs of Layer 3 Unicast topologies.

Information that is kept in the Traffic Engineering Database (TED) is specified in a separate model and outside the scope of this specification.

Figure 1: Overall model structure

YANG modules "ietf-network" and "ietf-network-topology" collectively define the basic network topology model. YANG module "ietf-l3-unicast-topology" augments those models with additional definitions needed to represent Layer 3 Unicast topologies. This module in turn can be augmented by YANG modules with additional definitions for specific types of Layer 3 Unicast topologies, such as OSPF and for IS-IS topologies.

4. Layer 3 Unicast Topology Model Overview

The Layer 3 Unicast topology model is defined by YANG module "ietf-l3-unicast-topology" and depicted in the following diagram. Brackets enclose list keys, "rw" means configuration, "ro" operational state data, "?" designates optional nodes, "*" designates nodes that can have multiple instances. Parantheses enclose choice and case nodes. The prefix "nd:" refers to the YANG module for networks; the prefix "lnk:" refers to the YANG module for network topology. In the interest of brevity, notifications are not depicted.

 
module: ietf-l3-unicast-topology
augment /nd:networks/nd:network/nd:network-types:
   +--rw l3-unicast-topology!
augment /nd:networks/nd:network:
   +--rw l3-topology-attributes
      +--rw name?   string
      +--rw flag*   l3-flag-type
augment /nd:networks/nd:network/nd:node:
   +--rw l3-node-attributes
      +--rw name?        inet:domain-name
      +--rw flag*        node-flag-type
      +--rw router-id*   inet:ip-address
      +--rw prefix* [prefix]
         +--rw prefix    inet:ip-prefix
         +--rw metric?   uint32
         +--rw flag*     prefix-flag-type
augment /nd:networks/nd:network/lnk:link:
   +--rw l3-link-attributes
      +--rw name?     string
      +--rw flag*     link-flag-type
      +--rw metric?   uint32
augment /nd:networks/nd:network/nd:node/lnk:termination-point:
   +--rw l3-termination-point-attributes
      +--rw (termination-point-type)?
         +--:(ip)
         |  +--rw ip-address*      inet:ip-address
         +--:(unnumbered)
            +--rw unnumbered-id?   uint32
           

The module augments the original ietf-network and ietf-network-topology modules as follows:

In addition, the module defines a set of notifications to alert clients of any events concerning links, nodes, prefixes, and termination points. Each notification includes an indication of the type of event, the topology from which it originated, and the affected node, or link, or prefix, or termination point. In addition, as a convenience to applications, additional data of the affected node, or link, or termination point (respectively) is included. While this makes notifications larger in volume than they would need to be, it avoids the need for subsequent retrieval of context information, which also might have changed in the meantime.

6. Extending the Model

The model can be extended for specific Layer 3 Unicast types. Examples include OSPF and IS-IS topologies. In the following, two additional YANG modules are introduced that define simple topology models for OSPF and IS-IS, respectively. These modules intended to serve as examples that illustrate how the general topology model can be refined across multiple levels; they do not constitute full-fledged OSPF and IS-IS topology models which may be more comprehensive and refined than the models that are described here.

6.1. Example 1: OSPF Topology

6.1.1. Model Overview

The following model shows how the Layer 3 Unicast topology model can be extended to cover OSFP topologies. For this purpose, a set of augmentations are introduced in a separate YANG module, "ietf-ospf-topology", whose structure is depicted in the following diagram. Like before, brackets enclose list keys, "rw" means configuration, "ro" operational state data, "?" designates optional nodes, "*" designates nodes that can have multiple instances. Parantheses enclose choice and case nodes. A "+" at the end of a line indicates a line break.

The module augments "ietf-l3-unicast-topology" as follows:

In addition, the module extends notifications for events concerning Layer 3 nodes, links, termination points, and prefixes with OSPF attributes.

It should be noted that the model defined here represents topology and is intended as an example. It does not define how to configure OSPF routers or interfaces.

6.2. Example 2: IS-IS Topology

6.2.1. Model Overview

IS-IS topologies are another type of Layer 3 Unicast topology. Like in the case of OSPF topology, a model for IS-IS topology can be defined in a separate module which augments "ietf-l3-unicast-igp-topology". The structure of a corresponding model, "ietf-isis-topology", is depicted in the following diagram. Like before, brackets enclose list keys, "rw" means configuration, "ro" operational state data, "?" designates optional nodes, "*" designates nodes that can have multiple instances. Parantheses enclose choice and case nodes. A "+" at the end of a line indicates a line break.

 
module: ietf-isis-topology
augment /nd:networks/nd:network/nd:network-types/l3t:l3-unicast-topology:
   +--rw isis!
augment /nd:networks/nd:network/l3t:l3-topology-attributes:
   +--rw isis-topology-attributes
      +--rw net?   area-address
augment /nd:networks/nd:network/nd:node/l3t:l3-node-attributes:
   +--rw isis-node-attributes
      +--rw iso
      |  +--rw iso-system-id?       system-id
      |  +--rw iso-pseudonode-id?   iso-pseudonode-id
      +--rw net*                 area-address
      +--rw multi-topology-id*   uint16
      +--rw level?               level
augment /nd:networks/nd:network/lnk:link/l3t:l3-link-attributes:
   +--rw isis-link-attributes
      +--rw multi-topology-id?   uint16
augment /l3t:l3-node-event:
   +---- isis!
   +---- isis-node-attributes
      +---- iso
      |  +---- iso-system-id?       system-id
      |  +---- iso-pseudonode-id?   iso-pseudonode-id
      +---- net*                 area-address
      +---- multi-topology-id*   uint16
      +---- level?               level
augment /l3t:l3-link-event:
   +---- isis!
   +---- isis-link-attributes
      +---- multi-topology-id?   uint16


      

The module augments the ietf-l3-unicast-topology as follows:

In addition, the module augments nodes and links with IS-IS attributes.

Again, it should be noted that the model defined here represents topology and is intended as an example. It does not define how to configure IS-IS routers or interfaces.

7. Security Considerations

The transport protocol used for sending the topology data MUST support authentication and SHOULD support encryption. The data-model by itself does not create any security implications.
