Introduction This document provides a binding for events streamed over the NETCONF protocol [RFC6241] as per [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications]. In addition, as [I-D.ietf-netconf-yang-push] is itself built upon [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications], this document Voit, et al. Expires January 3, 2019 [Page 2] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif July 2018 enables a NETCONF client to request and receive updates from a YANG datastore located on a NETCONF server. 2. Terminology The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here. The following terms are defined in [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications]: notification message, event stream, publisher, receiver, subscriber, subscription, configured subscription. 3. Compatibility with RFC-5277's create-subscription A publisher is allowed to concurrently support configured subscriptions and dynamic subscription RPCs of [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications] at the same time as [RFC5277]'s "create-subscription" RPC. However a single NETCONF transport session cannot support both this specification and a subscription established by [RFC5277]'s "create-subscription" RPC. To protect against any attempts to use a single NETCONF transport session in this way: o A solution must reply with the [RFC6241] error "operation-not- supported" if a "create-subscription" RPC is received on a NETCONF session where any other [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications] or [RFC5277] subscription exists. o It is a prohibited to send updates or state change notifications for a configured subscription on a NETCONF session where the create-subscription RPC has successfully [RFC5277] created subscription. o A "create-subscription" RPC MUST be rejected if any [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications] or [RFC5277]subscription is active across that NETCONF transport session. If a publisher supports this specification but not subscriptions via [RFC5277], the publisher MUST NOT advertise "urn:ietf:params:netconf:capability:notification:1.0". Voit, et al. Expires January 3, 2019 [Page 3] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif July 2018 4. Mandatory XML, event stream and datastore support The "encode-xml" feature of [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications] is mandatory to support. This indicates that XML is a valid encoding for RPCs, state change notifications, and subscribed content. A NETCONF publisher supporting event stream subscription via [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications] MUST support the "NETCONF" event stream identified in that draft. A NETCONF publisher supporting [I-D.ietf-netconf-yang-push] MUST support the operational state datastore as defined by [RFC8342]. 5. NETCONF connectivity and the subscription lifecycle This section describes how the availability of NETCONF transport impacts the establishment and lifecycle of different types of [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications] subscriptions. 5.1. Dynamic Subscriptions For a dynamic subscription, if the NETCONF session involved with the "establish-subscription" terminates, the subscription MUST be deleted. For a dynamic subscription a "modify-subscription", "delete- subscription", or "resynch-subscription" RPC MUST be sent using same the NETCONF session upon which the referenced subscription was established.". 5.2. Configured Subscriptions When a configured subscription enters the "valid" state, there is no guarantee a usable NETCONF transport session is currently in place with each associated receiver. As a result, the first configured subscription to a specific receiver MUST establish a NETCONF transport session via NETCONF call home [RFC8071], section 4.1. This transport session MUST then be used by additional configured subscriptions targeting that the same receiver. This same receiver is identifiable on the publisher as one which targets the same IP address and port used to establish the existing NETCONF call home connection. This transport session MAY also be used by dynamic subscriptions and/or non-subscription related NETCONF operations originated by the NETCONF client. The method of identifying the targeted recevier IP address, port, and security credentials are left up to implementers of this Voit, et al. Expires January 3, 2019 [Page 4] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif July 2018 specification. For implementation guidance and a YANG model for this function, please look to [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-netconf-client-server]. If the call home fails because the publisher receives receiver credentials which are subsequently declined per [RFC8071], Section 4.1, step S5 authentication, then that receiver MUST be placed into the "timeout" state. If the call home fails to establish for any other reason, the publisher MUST NOT progress the receiver to the "active" state. Additionally, the publisher SHOULD place the receiver into the "timeout" state after a predetermined number of either failed call home attempts or NETCONF sessions remotely terminated by the receiver. NETCONF transport session connectivity SHOULD be verified as described in [RFC8071], Section 4.1, step S7. Until NETCONF transport with a receiver has been established, and a "subscription-started" state change notification has been successfully sent for a configured subscription, that subscription's receiver MUST remain in either the "connecting" or the "timeout" state. If a NETCONF session is disconnected but the "stop-time" of a subscription being transported over that session has not been reached, the publisher restarts the call home process and return the receiver to the "connecting" state. 6. Notification Messages Notification messages transported over the NETCONF protocol will use the "notification" message defined within [RFC5277], section 4. All notification messages MUST use the NETCONF transport session used by the "establish-subscription" RPC. 7. Dynamic Subscriptions and RPC Error Responses Management of dynamic subscriptions occurs via RPCs as defined in [I-D.ietf-netconf-yang-push] and [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications]. When an RPC error occurs, the NETCONF RPC reply MUST include an "rpc-error" element per [RFC6241] with the error information populated as follows: o an "error-type" node of "application". o an "error-tag" node of "operation-failed". Voit, et al. Expires January 3, 2019 [Page 5] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif July 2018 o an "error-severity" of "error" (this MAY but does not have to be included). o an "error-app-tag" node with the value being a string that corresponds to an identity associated with the error, as defined in [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications] section 2.4.6 for general subscriptions, and [I-D.ietf-netconf-yang-push] Appendix A.1, for datastore subscriptions. The identityname to use depends on the RPC for which the error occurred. Viable errors for different RPCs are as follows: RPC use base identity ---------------------- ---------------------------- establish-subscription establish-subscription-error modify-subscription modify-subscription-error delete-subscription delete-subscription-error kill-subscription kill-subscription-error resynch-subscription resynch-subscription-error Each error identity will be inserted as the "error-app-tag" using JSON encoding following the form :. An example of such as valid encoding would be "ietf-subscribed- notifications:no-such-subscription". o In case of error responses to an "establish-subscription" or "modify-subscription" request there is the option of including an "error-info" node. This node may contain XML-encoded data with hints for parameter settings that might lead to successful RPC requests in the future. Following are the yang-data structures which may be returned: Voit, et al. Expires January 3, 2019 [Page 6] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif July 2018 establish-subscription returns hints in yang-data structure ---------------------- ------------------------------------ target: event stream establish-subscription-stream-error-info target: datastore establish-subscription-datastore-error-info modify-subscription returns hints in yang-data structure ---------------------- ------------------------------------ target: event stream modify-subscription-stream-error-info target: datastore modify-subscription-datastore-error-info The yang-data included within "error-info" SHOULD NOT include the optional leaf "error-reason", as such a leaf would be redundant with information that is already placed within the "error-app-tag". In case of an rpc error as a result of a "delete-subscription", a "kill-subscription", or a "resynch-subscription" request, no "error-info" needs to be included, as the "subscription-id" is the only RPC input parameter and no hints regarding this RPC input parameters need to be provided. 8.

IANA Considerations This document registers the following namespace URI in the "IETF XML Registry" [RFC3688]: URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-netconf-subscribed- notifications Registrant Contact: The IESG. XML: N/A; the requested URI is an XML namespace. This document registers the following YANG module in the "YANG Module Names" registry [RFC6020]: Name: ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications Namespace: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-netconf-subscribed- notifications Prefix: nsn Reference: RFC XXXX: NETCONF Support for Event Notifications 10. Security Considerations Notification messages (including state change notifications) are never sent before the NETCONF capabilities exchange has completed. If a malicious or buggy NETCONF subscriber sends a number of establish-subscription requests, then these subscriptions accumulate and may use up system resources. In such a situation, subscriptions MAY be terminated by terminating the underlying NETCONF session. The publisher MAY also suspend or terminate a subset of the active subscriptions on that NETCONF session. This draft has a YANG module which consists of a single identity. As a result additional security concerns beyond those of the imported modules are not introduced. 11.

Event Stream Discovery As defined in [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications] an event stream exposes a continuous set of events available for subscription. A NETCONF client can retrieve the list of available event streams from a NETCONF publisher using the "get" operation against the top-level container "/streams" defined in [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications] Section 3.1. The following example illustrates the retrieval of the list of available event streams: Figure 1: Get streams request After such a request, the NETCONF publisher returns a list of event streams available, as well as additional information which might exist in the container. Voit, et al. Expires January 3, 2019 [Page 11] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif July 2018 A.2. Dynamic Subscriptions A.2.1. Establishing Dynamic Subscriptions The following figure shows two successful "establish-subscription" RPC requests as per [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications]. The first request is given a subscription identifier of 22, the second, an identifier of 23. +------------+ +-----------+ | Subscriber | | Publisher | +------------+ +-----------+ | | | Capability Exchange | |<---------------------------->| | | | | | establish-subscription | |----------------------------->| (a) | RPC Reply: OK, id = 22 | |<-----------------------------| (b) | | | notification message (for 22)| |<-----------------------------| | | | | | establish-subscription | |----------------------------->| | notification message (for 22)| |<-----------------------------| | RPC Reply: OK, id = 23 | |<-----------------------------| | | | | | notification message (for 22)| |<-----------------------------| | notification message (for 23)| |<-----------------------------| | | Figure 2: Multiple subscriptions over a NETCONF session To provide examples of the information being transported, example messages for interactions (a) and (b) in Figure 2 are detailed below: Voit, et al. Expires January 3, 2019 [Page 12] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif July 2018 NETCONF /ex:foo/ 10 Figure 3: establish-subscription request (a) As NETCONF publisher was able to fully satisfy the request (a), the publisher sends the subscription identifier of the accepted subscription within message (b): 22 Figure 4: establish-subscription success (b) If the NETCONF publisher had not been able to fully satisfy the request, or subscriber has no authorization to establish the subscription, the publisher would have sent an RPC error response. For instance, if the "dscp" value of 10 asserted by the subscriber in Figure 3 proved unacceptable, the publisher may have returned: application operation-failed error ietf-subscribed-notifications:dscp-unavailable Figure 5: an unsuccessful establish subscription Voit, et al. Expires January 3, 2019 [Page 13] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif July 2018 The subscriber can use this information in future attempts to establish a subscription. A.2.2. Modifying Dynamic Subscriptions An existing subscription may be modified. The following exchange shows a negotiation of such a modification via several exchanges between a subscriber and a publisher. This negotiation consists of a failed RPC modification request/response, followed by a successful one. +------------+ +-----------+ | Subscriber | | Publisher | +------------+ +-----------+ | | | notification message (for 23)| |<-----------------------------| | | | modify-subscription (id = 23)| |----------------------------->| (c) | RPC error (with hint) | |<-----------------------------| (d) | | | modify-subscription (id = 23)| |----------------------------->| | RPC Reply: OK | |<-----------------------------| | | | notification message (for 23)| |<-----------------------------| | | Figure 6: Interaction model for successful subscription modification If the subscription being modified in Figure 6 is a datastore subscription as per [I-D.ietf-netconf-yang-push], the modification request made in (c) may look like that shown in Figure 7. As can be seen, the modifications being attempted are the application of a new xpath filter as well as the setting of a new periodic time interval. Voit, et al. Expires January 3, 2019 [Page 14] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif July 2018 23 /interfaces-state/interface/oper-status 500 Figure 7: Subscription modification request (c) If the NETCONF publisher can satisfy both changes, the publisher sends a positive result for the RPC. If the NETCONF publisher cannot satisfy either of the proposed changes, the publisher sends an RPC error response (d). The following is an example RPC error response for (d) which includes a hint. This hint is an alternative time period value which might have resulted in a successful modification: application operation-failed error ietf-yang-push:period-unsupported 3000 Figure 8: Modify subscription failure with Hint (d) Voit, et al. Expires January 3, 2019 [Page 15] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif July 2018 A.2.3. Deleting Dynamic Subscriptions The following demonstrates deleting a subscription. This subscription may have been to either a stream or a datastore. 22 Figure 9: Delete subscription If the NETCONF publisher can satisfy the request, the publisher replies with success to the RPC request. If the NETCONF publisher cannot satisfy the request, the publisher sends an error-rpc element indicating the modification didn't work. Figure 10 shows a valid response for existing valid subscription identifier, but that subscription identifier was created on a different NETCONF transport session: application operation-failed error ietf-subscribed-notifications:no-such-subscription Figure 10: Unsuccessful delete subscription A.3. Configured Subscriptions Configured subscriptions may be established, modified, and deleted using configuration operations against the top-level subtree of [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications] or [I-D.ietf-netconf-yang-push]. In this section, we present examples of how to manage the configuration subscriptions using a NETCONF client. Voit, et al. Expires January 3, 2019 [Page 16] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif July 2018 A.3.1. Creating Configured Subscriptions For subscription creation, a NETCONF client may send: none 1922 nsn:netconf NETCONF receiver1 Figure 11: Create a configured subscription If the request is accepted, the publisher will indicate this. If the request is not accepted because the publisher cannot serve it, no configuration is changed. In this case the publisher may reply: Voit, et al. Expires January 3, 2019 [Page 17] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif July 2018 application resource-denied error Temporarily the publisher cannot serve this subscription due to the current workload. Figure 12: Response to a failed configured subscription establishment After a subscription has been created, NETCONF connectivity to each receiver will be established if it does not already exist. This will be accomplished through the association on the publisher with the networking parameters needed to establish connectivity with each configured receiver. These parameters will be used as needed by NETCONF call home [RFC8071]. The following figure shows the interaction model for the successful creation of a configured subscription. Voit, et al. Expires January 3, 2019 [Page 18] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif July 2018 +----------+ +-----------+ +---------+ |Config Ops| | Publisher | |Receiver1| +----------+ +-----------+ +---------+ | | | | Capability Exchange | | |<-------------------------->| | | | | | | | | Edit-config | | |--------------------------->| | | RPC Reply: OK | | |<---------------------------| | | | Call Home | | |<-------------->| | | | | | subscription- | | | started | | |--------------->| | | | | | notification | | | message | | |--------------->| Figure 13: Interaction model for configured subscription establishment A.3.2. Modifying Configured Subscriptions Configured subscriptions can be modified using configuration operations against the top-level container "/subscriptions". For example, the subscription established in the previous section could be modified as follows, here a adding a second receiver: Voit, et al. Expires January 3, 2019 [Page 19] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif July 2018 1922 receiver2 Figure 14: Modify configured subscription If the request is accepted, the publisher will indicate success. The result is that the interaction model described in Figure 13 may be extended as follows. Voit, et al. Expires January 3, 2019 [Page 20] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif July 2018 +----------+ +-----------+ +---------+ +---------+ |Config Ops| | Publisher | |Receiver1| |Receiver2| +----------+ +-----------+ +---------+ +---------+ | | notification | | | | message | | | |--------------->| | | Edit-config | | | |--------------------------->| | | | RPC Reply: OK | | | |<---------------------------| | | | | subscription- | | | | started | | | |---------------------------->| | | | | | | notification | | | | message | | | |--------------->| | | |---------------------------->| | | | | Figure 15: Interaction model for configured subscription modification Note in the above that in the specific example above, modifying a configured subscription actually resulted in "subscription-started" notification. And because of an existing NETCONF session, no additional call home was needed. Also note that if the edit of the configuration had impacted the filter, a separate modify-subscription would have been required for the original receiver. A.3.3. Deleting Configured Subscriptions Configured subscriptions can be deleted using configuration operations against the top-level container "/subscriptions". Deleting the subscription above would result in the following flow impacting all active receivers. Voit, et al.
