Expires 14 September 2023 [Page 2] Internet-Draft Network Slice Topology Data Model March 2023 1. Introduction This document defines a YANG [RFC7950] data model for representing, managing, and controlling IETF network slices as abstract network topologies, where the network slices are defined in [I-D.ietf-teas-ietf-network-slices]. The defined data model is an interface between customers and providers for configurations and state retrievals, so as to support network slicing as a service. Through this model, a customer can learn the slicing capabilities and the available resources of the provider. A customer can request or negotiate with a network slicing provider to create an instance. The customer can incrementally update its requirements on individual topology elements in the slice instance, e.g., adding or removing a node or link, updating desired bandwidth of a link, and retrieve the operational states of these elements. With the help of other mechanisms and data models defined in IETF, the telemetry information can be published to the customer. The YANG model defines technology-agnostic constructs common to network slicing at network layers of different technologies, e.g. IP/MPLS(-TP), OTN and WDM. Therefore, this model may be used as a common base model on which other network slicing models, such as [I-D.ietf-ccamp-yang-otn-slicing], may augments with technology- specific constructs. As described in Section 3 of [I-D.contreras-teas-slice-controller-models], the data model defined in this document complements the data model defined in [I-D.ietf-teas-ietf-network-slice-nbi-yang]. In addition to the provider's view, the data model defined in this document models the Type 2 service defined in [RFC8453]. The YANG data model in this document conforms to the Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA) [RFC8342]. 1.1. Tree Diagram Tree diagrams used in this document follow the notation defined in [RFC8340]. 1.2.

A new network type "network-slice" is defined in this document. When a network topology data instance contains the network-slice network type, it represents an instance of an IETF network slice topology. 2.1. Relationships to Related Topology Models There are several related YANG data models that have been defined in IETF. Some of these are: Network Topology Model: Defined in [RFC8345]. Network Slicing Model: Defined in [I-D.ietf-teas-ietf-network-slice-nbi-yang]. OTN Slicing: Defined in [I-D.ietf-ccamp-yang-otn-slicing]. Figure 1 shows the relationships among these models. The box of dotted lines denotes the model defined in this document. Liu, et al.

ACTN for Network Slicing Since ACTN topology data models are based on the network topology model defined in [RFC8345], the augmentations defined in this document are effective augmentations to the ACTN topology data models, resulting in making the ACTN framework [RFC8453] and data models [I-D.ietf-teas-actn-yang] capable of slicing networks with the required network characteristics. 3. Model Applicability There are many technologies to achieve network slicing. The data model defined in this document can be used to configure resource- based network slices, where the resources of a network slice is represented in the form of an abstract network topology, which can then be mapped to a network resource partition (NRP) according to the scenarios defined in [I-D.ietf-teas-ietf-network-slices]. Network slices may be abstracted differently depending on the requirement contained in the configuration provided by the slice customer. A customer may request a network slice to provide just connectivity between specified endpoints, in which case the network slice can be represented as a set of endpoint-to-endpoint links, with each link formed by an end-to-end tunnel across the underlying transport networks. The resources associated with each link of the slice is reserved and commissioned in the underlying physical network upon the completion of configuring the network slice and all the links are active. Liu, et al. Expires 14 September 2023 [Page 5] Internet-Draft Network Slice Topology Data Model March 2023 Alternatively a network slice can also be represented as an abstract topology when the customer requests the slice to share resources between multiple endpoints and to use the resources on demand. The abstract topology may consist of virtual nodes and virtual links, and their associated resources are reserved but not commissioned across the underlying transport networks. The customer can later commission resources within the slice dynamically using the NBI provided by the service provider. According to [I-D.ietf-teas-ietf-network-slices], the IETF Network Slice service customer might ask for some level of control of, e.g., to customize the service paths in a network slice. The abstract topology defined in this draft could serve to enable this capability and optimize the resource utilization for network slice connections activated on top of the abstract topology. In the example shown in Figure 2, two network resource partitions are created by the provider to support the two network slice topology requests from the customers. In realizing the network resource partitions, node virtualization is used to separate and allocate resources in physical devices. Two virtual routers VR1 and VR2 are created over physical router R1, and two virtual routers VR3 and VR4 are created over physical router R2, respectively. Each of the virtual routers,as a partition of the physical router, takes a portion of the resources such as ports and memory in the physical router. Depending on the requirements and the implementations, they may share certain resources such as processors, ASICs, and switch fabric. The network slice topology intent requested by the customers is then mapped to a corresponding network resource partition. The provider also reports the operational state of the topology, which shows the resources that are allocated. Customers can process the requested topology and integrate it with their own topology. As an example, Appendix B. shows the JSON encoded data instances of the customer topology intent for Network Slice Blue.

YANG Model Overview The following constructs and attributes are defined within the YANG model: * Network topology, which represent set of shared, reserved resources organized as a virtual topology between all of the endpoints. A customer could use such network topology to define detailed connectivity path traversing the topology, and allow sharing of resources between its multiple endpoint pairs. * Service-level objectives (SLOs) associated with different objects, including node, link, termination point of the topology. 5.

Manageability Considerations To ensure the security and controllability of physical resource isolation, slice-based independent operation and management are required to achieve management isolation. Each network slice typically requires dedicated accounts, permissions, and resources for independent access and O&M. This mechanism is to guarantee the information isolation among slice tenants and to avoid resource conflicts. The access to slice management functions will only be permitted after successful security checks. Liu, et al. Expires 14 September 2023 [Page 16] Internet-Draft Network Slice Topology Data Model March 2023 8. 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 NETCONF access control model [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. There are a number of data nodes defined in this YANG module that are writable/creatable/deletable (i.e., config true, which is the default). These data nodes may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. Write operations (e.g., edit-config) to these data nodes without proper protection can have a negative effect on network operations. Considerations in Section 8 of [RFC8795] are also applicable to their subtrees in the module defined in this document. Some of the readable data nodes in this YANG module may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. It is thus important to control read access (e.g., via get, get-config, or notification) to these data nodes. Considerations in Section 8 of [RFC8795] are also applicable to their subtrees in the module defined in this document. 9. IANA Considerations It is proposed to IANA to assign new URIs from the "IETF XML Registry" [RFC3688] as follows: URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-ns-topo Registrant Contact: The IESG XML: N/A; the requested URI is an XML namespace.
