Retrieval Methods YANG Data Model for Connectionless Operations, Administration, and Maintenance(OAM) protocols
draft-ietf-lime-yang-connectionless-oam-methods-04

Abstract

This document presents a retrieval method YANG Data model for connectionless OAM protocols. It provides a technology-independent RPC commands for connectionless OAM protocols. The retrieval methods model presented here can be extended to include technology specific details. This is leading to uniformity between OAM protocols and support both nested OAM workflows (i.e., performing OAM functions at different levels through a unified interface) and interactive OAM workflows ( i.e., performing OAM functions at same levels through a unified interface).

Table of Contents

1. Introduction

Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM) are important networking functions that allow operators to:

  1. Monitor reachability of destinations (Reachability Verification, Continuity Check).
  2. Troubleshoot failures (Fault verification and localization).
  3. Monitor Performance

An overview of OAM tools is presented at [RFC7276].

Ping and Traceroute [RFC792], [RFC4443] and BFD [RFC5880] are well-known fault verification and isolation tools, respectively, for IP networks. Over the years, different technologies have developed similar tools for similar purposes.

In this document, we present a retrieval method YANG Data model for connectionless OAM protocols. This module provides technology-independent RPC commands for connectionless OAM protocols. It is separated from the generic YANG model for connectionless OAM [I-D.ietf-lime-yang-connectionless-oam] and can avoid mixing the models for the retrieved-data from the retrieval procedures. It is expected that retrieval procedures would evolve faster than the data model [I-D.ietf-lime-yang-connectionless-oam] and will allow new procedures to be defined for retrieval of the same data defined by the base data model.

2. Conventions used in this document

The following terms are defined in [RFC6241] and are not redefined here:

The following terms are defined in [RFC6020] and are not redefined here: [RFC6020].

The terminology for describing YANG data models is found in

2.1. Terminology

TP - Test Point

MAC - Media Access Control

RPC - A Remote Procedure Call, as used within the NETCONF protocol

2.2. Tree Diagrams

A simplified graphical representation of the data model is used in this document. The meaning of the symbols in these diagrams is as follows:

<status> <flags> <name> <opts> <type>

<status> is one of:
     +  for current


<flags> is one of:

    rw for configuration data 
    ro for non-configuration data
    -x for rpcs
    -n for notifications


<name> is the name of the node

Each node is printed as:

<opts> is one of:

     ?  for an optional leaf or choice
     !  for a presence container
     *  for a leaf-list or list
     [<keys>] for a list's keys

<type> is the name of the type for leafs and leaf-lists

If the node is augmented into the tree from another module, its name is printed as <prefix>:<name>.

3. Overview of the Connectionless OAM retrieval methods Model

In this document, we present a retrieval method YANG Data model for connectionless OAM protocols. This module provides technology-independent retrieval procedures (RPC commands) for connectionless OAM protocols. It provides a flexible way to retrieve the retrieved-data which defined by the "ietf-connectionless-oam.yang" [I-D.ietf-lime-yang-connectionless-oam].

3.1. RPC definitions

The RPC model facilitates issuing commands to a NETCONF server (in this case to the device that need to execute the OAM command) and obtaining a response.

Under 'connectionless-oam-methods' module, we summarize the common OAM functions and define the generic RPC commands: 'continuity-check' and 'path-discovery'. In practice, these commands are supported by corresponding technology-specific OAM tools [RFC7276]. For example, for the IP OAM model, the continuity-check RPC corresponds to the IP Ping [RFC792] [RFC4443], while the path-discovery RPC command corresponds to IP Traceroute [RFC792] [RFC4443].

Note that the RPC command presented in this document is the base building block, which is used to derive a model for a technology-specific OAM (i.e., ICMP ping [RFC792] [RFC4443], LSP ping [RFC8029]), the base building block should be extended with corresponding technology specific parameters. To facilitate this and for future enhancements to data retrieval methods, the RPCs are captured under a separate module.

The generic 'path-discovery-data' and 'continuity-check-data' are used as data outputs from the different RPCs described in the document. Similar methods including other RPCs can retrieve the data using the same data model.

5. Security Considerations

The YANG modules defined in this memo are designed to be accessed via the NETCONF protocol [RFC6241]. The lowest NETCONF layer is the secure transport layer and the mandatory to implement secure transport is SSH [RFC6242]. The NETCONF access control model [RFC6536] provides the means to restrict access for particular NETCONF users to a pre-configured subset of all available NETCONF protocol operations and content. Some of the RPC operations in the "ietf-connectionless-oam-methods" 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:

o continuity-check: Generates continuity check.

o path-discovery: Generates path discovery.

6. IANA Considerations

This document registers a URI in the IETF XML registry [RFC3688]. Following the format in [RFC3688], the following registration is requested to be made:

URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-connectionless-oam-methods

Registrant Contact: The IESG.

XML: N/A, the requested URI is an XML namespace.

This document registers a YANG module in the YANG Module Names registry [RFC6020].

Appendix A. Appendix

The following are some examples of extensions possible to the yang model. The example discusses persistent methods.

The persistent method RPCs are commands to trigger persistent continuity check or path discovery OAM while specifying the options for data-export from the device. Internet Protocol Flow Information Export (IPFIX) [RFC7011] or yang-push [I-D.ietf-netconf-yang-push]. are currently outlined here as data export options and more can be added in future. It should be noted that the persistent methods are used to trigger create, modify and delete the persistent state associated with the data export options. The data export specific configurations are beyond the scope of this document.
