Introduction YANG-Push subscriptions [RFC8641] allow client applications to subscribe to continuous datastore updates without needing to poll. It defines a mechanism (i.e.,update trigger) to determine when an update record needs to be generated. Two type of subscriptions are introduced in [RFC8641], distinguished by how updates are triggered: periodic and on-change. o Periodic subscription allows subscribed data to be streamed to the destination at a configured fixed periodic interval Wu, et al. Expires November 15, 2021 [Page 2] Internet-Draft Adaptive Subscription May 2021 o On-change subscription allows update to be triggered whenever a change in the subscribed information is detected. The periodic interval is set to zero value in the on-change subscription case. However in some large scale deployments (e.g., wireless network performance monitoring) where an increased data collection rate is being used, it becomes more likely that a burst of streamed data may temporarily overwhelm a receiver and consume expensive network resource (e.g., radio resource). If the rate at which we can collect a stream of data is set too low or getting low priority telemetry data dropped, these telemetry data are not sufficient to detect and diagnose problems and verify correct network behavior. There is a need for a service to configure both clients and servers with multiple different period intervals and corresponding subscription policy which allows servers/publishers automatically switch to different period intervals according to resource usage change without the interaction with the remote client, e.g., when the wireless signal strength falls below a configured low watermark, the subscribed data can be streamed at a higher rate while when the wireless signal strength crosses a configured high watermark, the subscribed data can be streamed at lower rate. This document defines a YANG data model and associated mechanism enabling subscriber's adaptive subscriptions to a publisher's event streams. Applying these elements allows servers to automatically adjust the volume of telemetry traffic sent from publisher to the receivers and keep it within a specified maximum rate of traffic. 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 [RFC5277] [RFC7950] [RFC3198] [RFC8342] [RFC8639] and are not redefined here: o Event o Client o Configuration o Configured subscription o Configuration datastore Wu, et al. Expires November 15, 2021 [Page 3] Internet-Draft Adaptive Subscription May 2021 o Notification message o Publisher o Receiver o Subscriber o Subscription o On-change subscription o Periodic subscription 2. Model Overview This document defines a YANG module "ietf-adaptive-subscription", which augments the "update-trigger" choice defined in the "ietf-yang- push" module [RFC8641] with subscription configuration parameters that are specific to adaptive subscription. In addition to Subscription state notifications defined in [RFC8639] and Notifications for Subscribed Content defined in [RFC8641], "ietf- adaptive-subscription" YANG module also defines "adaptive-period- update" notification to report update interval change. The following tree diagrams [RFC8340] provide an overview of the data model for "ietf-adaptive-subscription.yang" module. Wu, et al. Expires November 15, 2021 [Page 4] Internet-Draft Adaptive Subscription May 2021 module: ietf-adaptive-subscription augment /sn:subscriptions/sn:subscription/yp:update-trigger: +--rw (adaptive-subscription)? +--:(adaptive-subscriptions) +--rw adaptive-subscriptions +--rw adaptive-period* [name] +--rw name string +--rw xpath-external-eval string +--rw watermark? uint32 +--rw period centiseconds +--rw anchor-time? yang:date-and-time augment /sn:establish-subscription/sn:input/yp:update-trigger: +-- (adaptive-subscription)? +--:(adaptive-subscriptions) +--rw adaptive-subscriptions +--rw adaptive-period* [name] +--rw name string +--rw xpath-external-eval string +--rw watermark? uint32 +--rw period centiseconds +--rw anchor-time? yang:date-and-time notifications: +---n adaptive-period-update +--ro id? sn:subscription-id +--ro period centiseconds +--ro anchor-time? yang:date-and-time +--ro (selection-filter)? +--:(by-reference) | +--ro selection-filter-ref selection-filter-ref +--:(within-subscription) +--ro (filter-spec)? +--:(datastore-subtree-filter) | +--ro datastore-subtree-filter? {sn:subtree}? +--:(datastore-xpath-filter) +--ro datastore-xpath-filter? yang:xpath1.0 {sn:xpath}? 2.1. Subscription Configuration For adaptive subscriptions, triggered updates will occur at the boundaries of specified time intervals when a trigger condition is satisfied. These boundaries can be calculated from the adaptive periodic parameters: o a "period" that defines the new duration between push updates, the period can be changed based on trigger condition. o an "anchor-time" update intervals fall on the points in time that are a multiple of a "period" from an "anchor-time". If an Wu, et al. Expires November 15, 2021 [Page 5] Internet-Draft Adaptive Subscription May 2021 "anchor-time" is not provided, then the "anchor-time" MUST be set with the creation time of the initial update record. o a "watermark" that defines the threshold value of the targeted data object, e.g., it can be lower boundary or upper boundary of targeted data object. o a "xpath-external-eval" represents an Evaluation criteria that may be applied against event records in an event stream, which is used to trigger update interval switch in the server. It contains comparisons of datastore node with its value to the specific threshold (i.e., watermark) and associated logical operation in the XPath format. Different from stream-xpath-filter defined in [RFC8639], it doesn't influence the event records output generation from a publisher. 2.2. YANG RPC 2.2.1. "establish-subscription" RPC The augmentation of YANG module ietf-yang-push made to RPCs specified in YANG module ietf-subscribed-notifications [RFC8639] is introduced. This augmentation concerns the "establish- subscription" RPC, which is augmented with parameters that are needed to specify adaptive subscriptions. These parameters are same as one defined in Section 2.1. 2.2.2. "modify-subscription" RPC The subscriber MAY invoke the "modify-subscription" RPC for a subscription it previously established. The subscriber will include newly desired values in the "modify-subscription" RPC. Parameters not included MUST remain unmodified. Section 4.4.2 of [RFC8641] provides an example where a subscriber attempts to modify the period and datastore XPath filter of a subscription using NETCONF. The period can be the 'period' parameter defined by ietf-adaptive- subscription. 2.3. Notifications for Adaptive Subscribed Content The adaptive update notification is similar to Subscription state change notifications defined in [RFC8639]. It is inserted into the sequence of notification messages sent to a particular receiver. The adaptive update notification cannot be dropped or filtered out, it cannot be stored in replay buffers, and it is delivered only to impacted receivers of a subscription. The identification of adaptive update notification is easy to separate from other notification messages through the use of the YANG extension "subscription-state- Wu, et al. Expires November 15, 2021 [Page 6] Internet-Draft Adaptive Subscription May 2021 notif". This extension tags a notification as a subscription state change notification. The objects in the 'adpative-update' notification include: o a "period" that defines the duration between push updates, the period can be changed based on trigger condition. o an "anchor-time"; update intervals fall on the points in time that are a multiple of a "period" from an "anchor-time". If an "anchor-time" is not provided, then the "anchor-time" MUST be set with the creation time of the initial update record. o A selection filter identifying YANG nodes of interest in a datastore. Filter contents are specified via a reference to an existing filter or via an in-line definition for only that subscription. Referenced filters allow an implementation to avoid evaluating filter acceptability during a dynamic subscription request. The "case" statement differentiates the options. Note that filter contents are not affected by "xpath-external-eval" parameter and "watermark" parameter defined by update trigger. 3.

IANA Considerations 4.1. Updates to the IETF XML Registry This document registers two URIs in the IETF XML registry [RFC3688]. Following the format in [RFC3688], the following registrations are requested to be made: --------------------------------------------------------------------- URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-adaptive-subscription Registrant Contact: The IESG. XML: N/A, the requested URI is an XML namespace. --------------------------------------------------------------------- 4.2. Updates to the YANG Module Names Registry This document registers two YANG modules in the YANG Module Names registry [RFC7950]. . Following the format in [RFC6020], the following registration has been made: --------------------------------------------------------------------- Name: ietf-adaptive-subscription Namespace: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-adaptive-subscription Prefix: as Reference: RFC xxxx --------------------------------------------------------------------- 5. 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 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. 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 in some network environments. Write operations (e.g., edit-config) to these data nodes without proper protection can have a negative effect on Wu, et al. Expires November 15, 2021 [Page 12] Internet-Draft Adaptive Subscription May 2021 network operations. These are the subtrees and data nodes and their sensitivity/vulnerability: o /sn:subscriptions/sn:subscription/yp:update-trigger/as:adaptive- subscriptions/as:adaptive-period/as:watermark o /sn:subscriptions/sn:subscription/yp:update-trigger/as:adaptive- subscriptions/as:adaptive-period/as:period o /sn:subscriptions/sn:subscription/yp:update-trigger/as:adaptive- subscriptions/as:adaptive-period/as:anchor-time o /sn:establish-subscription/sn:input/yp:update-trigger/as:adaptive- subscriptions/as:adaptive-period/as:watermark o /sn:establish-subscription/sn:input/yp:update-trigger/as:adaptive- subscriptions/as:adaptive-period/as:period o /sn:establish-subscription/sn:input/yp:update-trigger/as:adaptive- subscriptions/as:adaptive-period/as:anchor-time 6.

This section shows some typical adaptive subscription and notification message exchanges. B.1. "edit-config" Example The client configures adaptive subscription policy parameters on the server. The adaptive subscription configuration parameters require the server to support two update intervals (i.e., 5 seconds, 60 seconds) and scan all clients every 5 seconds in the sampling window if the rssi value of client is greater than -65dB in the sampling window; If the rssi value of client is less than -65dB, switch to 60 seconds period value, and then scan all clients every 60 seconds.
