1. Introduction
This document introduces a YANG [RFC6020] data model grouping for
configuration scheduling. This grouping can be used in other YANG
data models to specify a schedule applied on a configuration schema
node, so that the schema node can take effect according to the
schedule.
1.1. Terminology
The keywords "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].
The following terms are defined in [RFC6020] and are not redefined
here:

o data model
o data node
2. Motivation
Some applications benefit from resource scheduling to allow operators
to plan ahead of time. Traffic engineering is one of such examples
[RFC7399]. When configuration and state models are designed for such
applications, it has been considered that certain data objects need
to be configured according to predefined schedules. In other
situations, operators need to de-configure certain data objects at
predefined schedules for the purposes such as maintenance. These data
objects are interpreted and implemented by the applicable
applications.
3. Configuration Scheduling YANG Data Model Overview
This document defines a grouping "schedules" in the YANG module
"ietf-schedule". Specifying this grouping for a YANG schema node
allows to specify configuration schedules for the data objects
modeled by this schema node. When such a schedule exists, system will
configure the specified object according to the specified schedule.
The grouping has the following structure:
module: ietf-schedule
grouping schedules:
+--rw schedules
+--rw schedule* [schedule-id]
+--rw schedule-id uint32
+--rw inclusive-exclusive? enumeration
+--rw start? yang:date-and-time
+--rw schedule-duration? string
+--rw repeat-interval? string
4. Usage Example
The following model defines a list of TE (Traffic Engineering) links
which can be configured with specified schedules:
+--rw te-link* [id]
+--rw id string
+--rw schedules
Liu, et al. Expires March 17, 2017 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft draft-liu-netmod-yang-schedule-01 September 2017
+--rw schedule* [schedule-id]
+--rw schedule-id uint32
+--rw inclusive-exclusive? enumeration
+--rw start? yang:date-and-time
+--rw schedule-duration? string
+--rw repeat-interval? String
The following configuration requests that
o link-1 is configured weekly for five one-day periods, starting
from 2016-09-12T23:20:50.52Z.
o link-1 is de-configured for two hours, starting from 2016-09-
15T01:00:00.00Z.

6. Security Considerations
The configuration, state, action and notification data defined in
this document are designed to be accessed via the NETCONF protocol
[RFC6241]. The data-model by itself does not create any security
implications. The security considerations for the NETCONF protocol
Liu, et al. Expires March 17, 2017 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft draft-liu-netmod-yang-schedule-01 September 2017
are applicable. The NETCONF protocol used for sending the data
supports authentication and encryption.
