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 terms YANG-Push, On-change subscription and Periodic subscription are used as defined in [RFC8641] The terms Subscriber, Publisher and Receiver are used as defined in [RFC8639] The term Server is used as defined in [RFC8342] On-change Notification Capability: The capability of the publisher to send on-change notifications for a specific datastore or a specific data node. Implementation-time information: Information about the publisher's behavior that is made available during the implementation of the publisher, available from a source other then a running server implementing the publisher. Lengyel, et al. Expires May 20, 2020 [Page 2] Internet-Draft YANG-Push Notification Capabilities November 2019 Run-time information: Information about the publisher's behavior that is available from the running server (implementing the publisher) via management protocols such as NETCONF [RFC6241] or RESTCONF [RFC8040]. 2. Introduction As defined in [RFC8641] a publisher may allow subscribers to subscribe to updates from a datastore and subsequently push such update notifications to the receiver. Notifications may be sent periodically or on-change (more or less immediately after each change). A publisher supporting YANG-Push has a number of capabilities defined in [RFC8641] that are often determined during the implementation of the publisher. These include: o Supported (reporting) periods for periodic subscriptions o Maximum number of objects that can be sent in an update o The set of datastores or data nodes for which periodic notification is supported If the optional on-change feature is supported, additionally: o Supported dampening periods for on-change subscriptions o The set of datastores or data nodes for which on-change notification is supported Publishers have limitations in how many update notifications and how many datastore node updates they can send out in a certain time- period. Publishers might not support periodic subscriptions to all datastores. In some cases, a publisher supporting on-change notifications will not be able to push updates for some object types on-change. Reasons for this might be that the value of the datastore node changes frequently (e.g. in-octets counter), that small object changes are frequent and irrelevant to the receiver (e.g., a temperature gauge changing 0.1 degrees within a predetermined and acceptable range), or that the implementation is not capable of on-change notification for a particular object. In those cases, it will be important for subscriber applications to have a way to identify which objects on- change notifications are supported and for which ones not. Lengyel, et al. Expires May 20, 2020 [Page 3] Internet-Draft YANG-Push Notification Capabilities November 2019 Faced with the reality that support for on-change notification does not mean that such notifications will be sent for any specific data node, subscriber/management applications can not rely on the on- change functionality unless the subscriber has some means to identify which objects on-change notifications are supported. YANG models are meant to be used as an interface contract. Without identification of the data nodes actually supporting on-change, this contract would be incomplete. This document proposes a YANG module that allows a subscriber to discover YANG-Push related capabilities both at implementation-time and run-time. Implementation-time information is needed by Network Management System (NMS) implementers. A NMS implementation that wants to support notifications, needs the information about on-change notification capability. If the information is not documented in a way available to the NMS designer, but only as instance data from the network node once it is deployed, the NMS implementation will be delayed, because it has to wait for the network node to be ready. In addition, the assumption that all NMS implementers will have a correctly configured network node available to retrieve data from is an expensive proposition and may not always hold. (An NMS may need to be able to handle many dozens of network node types.) Often a fully functional NMS is a requirement for introducing a new network node type into a network, so delaying NMS readiness effectively also delays the time at which a new network node type can be introduced into the network. Implementation-time information is needed by system integrators. When introducing a network node type into their network, operators often need to integrate the node type into their own management system. The NMS may have management functions that depend on on- change notifications. The network operator needs to plan his management practices and NMS implementation before he even decides to buy the specific network node type. Moreover the decision to buy the node type sometimes depends on these management possibilities. Run-time information is needed: o for any "purely model driven" application, e.g. a NETCONF-browser. Such applications depend on reading models, capabilities in run- time to support all the publisher's available functionality. o in case the capability might change during run-time e.g. due to licensing, HW constraints etc. Lengyel, et al. Expires May 20, 2020 [Page 4] Internet-Draft YANG-Push Notification Capabilities November 2019 o to check that capability information provided early, already in implementation-time is indeed what the publisher implements (is the supplied documentation correct?) 3. Notification Capability Model It is a goal to provide YANG-Push notification capability information in a format that is: o vendor independent o machine readable o identical for implementation-time and run-time The YANG module ietf-notification-capabilities is defined to provide the information. It contains: o a set of capabilities related to the throughput of notification data the publisher can send out. o specification of which data nodes support on-change notifications. Capability values can be specified on publisher level, datastore level or on specific data nodes (and their contained sub-tree) of a specific datastore. Capability values on a smaller, more specific part of the publisher's data always override more generic values. Note: The solution is usable for both NMDA and non-NMDA systems. For non-NMDA servers/publishers the config=false data is considered as if it was part of the running datastore. The information SHOULD be provided in two ways both following the ietf-notification-capabilities module: o For the implementation-time use-case: It SHOULD be provided by the implementer as YANG instance data file complying to [I-D.ietf-netmod-yang-instance-file-format]. The file SHALL be available already in implementation-time retrievable in a way that does not depend on a live network node. E.g. download from product website. o For the run-time use-case: It SHOULD be available via NETCONF [RFC6241] or RESTCONF [RFC8040] from the live server (implementing the publisher) during run-time. Implementations which support changing these capabilities at run-time SHOULD support on-change notifications about the publisher-subscription-capabilities container. Lengyel, et al.

The module contains - capabilities related to the throughput of notification data the publisher can support. (Note that for a specific subscription the publisher MAY still allow only longer periods or smaller updates depending on e.g. actual load conditions.) - specification of which data nodes support on-change or periodic notifications. Capability values can be specified on publisher level, datastore level or on specific data nodes (and their contained sub-tree) of a specific datastore. If a capability is specified on multiple levels, the specification on a more specific level overrides more generic capability specifications; thus - a publisher level specification is overridden by any other specification - a datastore level specification (with a node-selector '/') is overridden by a specification with a more specific node-selector. - a specification for a specific datastore and node-selector is overridden by a specification for the same datastore with a node-slector that describes more levels of containing lists and containers. If, different data nodes covered by a single subscription have different values for a specific capability, then using values that are only acceptable for some of these data nodes, but not for Lengyel, et al. Expires May 20, 2020 [Page 7] Internet-Draft YANG-Push Notification Capabilities November 2019 others, may result in the rejection of the subscription. To find a capability value for a specific node in a specific datastore the user SHALL 1) consider the publisher level capabilities under the publisher-subscription-capabilities container if the capability value is specified. 2) search for a datastore-capabilities list entry for the specific datastore. 3) within that datastore entry search for a per-node-capabilities entry that specifies the specific capability and that has the node-selector selecting the specific data node and that specifies the most levels of containing containers and lists. 4) If no entries are found in the previous steps the publisher is not capable of providing a value because it is unknown, the capability is changing for some reason, there is no specified limit etc. In this case the publisher's behavior is unspecified.

Security Considerations The YANG module specified in this document defines a schema for data that is designed to be accessed via network management protocols such as NETCONF [RFC6241] or RESTCONF [RFC8040]. The lowest NETCONF layer is the secure transport layer, and the mandatory-to-implement secure transport is Secure Shell (SSH) [RFC6242]. The lowest RESTCONF layer is HTTPS, and the mandatory-to-implement secure transport is TLS [RFC8446]. The Network Configuration Access Control Model (NACM) [RFC8341] provides the means to restrict access for particular NETCONF or RESTCONF users to a preconfigured subset of all available NETCONF or RESTCONF protocol operations and content. All protocol-accessible data nodes are read-only and cannot be modified. The data in this module is not security sensitive. Access control may be configured, to avoid exposing the read-only data. Lengyel, et al. Expires May 20, 2020 [Page 12] Internet-Draft YANG-Push Notification Capabilities November 2019 When that data is in file format, data should be protected against modification or unauthorized access using normal file handling mechanisms. 5.
