1. Introduction
The subscription mechanism defined in yang-push draft
[I-D.ietf-netconf-yang-push] supports a subscription mechanism where
datastore and its datanodes can be provided as targets. However
there are a few scenarios where a subscription to datanodes may not
be sufficient.
o An application on the client may want to track ONLY the
configuration changes in a particular module. If a module
contains "config true" mixed with "config false" nodes, setting up
such a filter at multiple levels will be cumbersome.
o An application on the client may want to track the configuration
(other than intended) which the device applied. Yang-push
subscription does not provide such control.
1.1. 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 [RFC8342] and are not redefined
here:
o operational state datastore
o intended configuration datastore

2. Yang Push Subscription Extensions
There are two new filter nodes added to the Yang push subscription
mechanism. They are listed below.
o config-filter
o with-origin
2.1. Config Filter
This is a filter for nodes with the given value for their 'config'
property. When this leaf is set to 'true', only 'config true' nodes
are selected and, when set to 'false', only 'config false' nodes are
selected. If this leaf is not present, this filter is not applied.
2.2. Origin Metadata Attribute
This document defines the "with-origin" parameter, which if present,
requests that the server includes "origin" metadata annotations as
defined in [RFC8342] in notifications which are part of this
subscription. This parameter is only valid for the operational state
datastore and any datastores with identities derived from the
"operational" identity. Otherwise, if an invalid datastore is
specified then a suitable error is returned.
Data in the operational state datastore can come from multiple
sources. The server should return the most accurate value for the
"origin" metadata annotation as possible, indicating the source of
the operational value, as specified in Section 5.3.4 of RFC8342 [1]
When encoding the origin metadata annotation for a hierarchy of
returned nodes, the annotation may be omitted for a child node when
the value matches that of the parent node, as described in the "ietf-
origin" YANG module [RFC8342].
The "with-origin" parameter is optional to support. It is identified
with the feature "origin".
3. Examples of usage
In this example, the following fictional module is used:
Ranade Expires August 5, 2019 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft Extensions to Yang Push Feb 2019
module example-interface {
yang-version 1.1;
namespace urn:example:interface;
prefix int;
import ietf-inet-types {
prefix inet;
}
container interface {
leaf name{
type string;
}
leaf speed{
type string;
config false;
}
}
}
A subscription on the "config true" nodes of the operational state
datastore. This subscription also requests to get the origin of the
datanodes as part of Yang-push notifications. This is considering
that the NETCONF protocol was used for this subscription.
operational
true
The operator has configured an interface ("eth1"), the system has
recognised an interface ("eth0") which was plugged in recently. The
below NETCONF notification is an example for a yang-push notification
when the device applies the "eth0" configuration.
