YANG Data Model for Routing in Fat Trees (RIFT)

Abstract

This document defines a YANG data model for the configuration and management of Routing in Fat Trees (RIFT) Protocol. The model is based on YANG 1.1 as defined in RFC7950 and conforms to the Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA) as described in RFC8342.

Table of Contents

1. Introduction

[I-D.ietf-rift-rift] introduces the protocol definition of RIFT. This document defines a YANG data model that can be used to configure and manage the RIFT protocol. This model imports and augments ietf-routing YANG model defined in [RFC8349].

1.1. Terminology

The terminology for describing YANG data models is found in [RFC6020] and [RFC7950], including:

The following abbreviations are used in this document and the defined model:

RIFT: Routing in Fat Trees [I-D.ietf-rift-rift].

1.2. Conventions Used in This Document

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.

1.3. Terminology

The content of this section is copied from [I-D.ietf-rift-rift] for reading convenience.

LIE: An acronym for a "Link Information Element" exchanged on all the system's links running RIFT to form ThreeWay adjacencies and carry information used to perform Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) of levels.

POD: An acronym for a "Point of Delivery". A self-contained vertical slice or subset of a Clos or Fat Tree network containing normally only level 0 and level 1 nodes. A node in a PoD communicates with nodes in other PoDs via the Top- of-Fabric. PoDs are numbered to distinguish them and PoD value 0 is used to denote "undefined" or "any" PoD.

TIE: An acronym for a "Topology Information Element". TIEs are exchanged between RIFT nodes to describe parts of a network such as links and address prefixes. A TIE has always a direction and a type. North TIEs (sometimes abbreviated as N-TIEs) are used when dealing with TIEs in the northbound representation and South-TIEs (sometimes abbreviated as S-TIEs) for the southbound equivalent. TIEs have different types such as node and prefix TIEs.

1.4. Tree Diagrams

Tree diagrams used in this document follow the notation defined in [RFC8340].

1.5. Prefixes in Data Node Names

In this document, names of data nodes, actions, and other data model objects are often used without a prefix, as long as it is clear from the context in which YANG module each name is defined. Otherwise, names are prefixed using the standard prefix associated with the corresponding YANG module, as shown in Table 1.

2. Design of the Data Model

2.1. Scope of Model

The model covers RIFT [I-D.ietf-rift-rift].

This model can be used to configure and manage the RIFT protocol. The operational state data and statistics can be retrieved by this model. The subscription and push mechanism defined in [RFC8639] and [RFC8641] can be implemented by the user to subscribe to notifications on the data nodes in this model.

The model contains all the basic configuration parameters to operate the protocol. Depending on the implementation choices, some systems may not allow some of the advanced parameters to be configurable. The occasionally implemented parameters are modeled as optional features in this model. This model can be extended, and it has been structured in a way that such extensions can be conveniently made.

The RIFT YANG module augments the /routing/control-plane-protocols/ control-plane-protocol path defined in the ietf-routing module. The ietf-rift model defines a single instance of RIFT. Multiple instances are instantiated as multiple control-plane protocols instances.

2.2. Specification

This model imports and augments ietf-routing YANG model defined in [RFC8349]. Both configuration branch and state branch of [RFC8349] are augmented. The configuration branch covers node base and policy configuration. The container "rift" is the top level container in this data model. The container is expected to enable RIFT protocol functionality.

The YANG data model defined in this document conforms to the Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA) [RFC8342]. The operational state data is combined with the associated configuration data in the same hierarchy [RFC8407].

2.3. Overview

The RIFT YANG module defined in this document has all the common building blocks for the RIFT protocol.

The RIFT YANG module augments the /routing/control-plane-protocols/ control-plane-protocol path defined in the ietf-routing module. The ietf-rift model defines a single instance of RIFT. Multiple instances are instantiated as multiple control-plane protocols instances.

2.4. RIFT configuration

The configuration data nodes cover node configuration attributes. RIFT configurations require node base information configurations. Some features can be used to enhance protocol, such as BFD [RFC5881], flooding-reducing, community attribute.

2.5. RIFT State

The state data nodes include node, neighbor, database and kv-store information.

2.6. Notifications

Unexpected TIE and neighbor's layer error should be notified.

    "This YANG module defines the generic configuration and
     operational state for the RIFT protocol common to all

     RIFT configuration parameters and policies --
     for example, route maps or route policies.

4. 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.

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. Writable data node represent configuration of each instance, node, interface, etc. These correspond to the following schema node:

Modifying the configuration may cause all the RIFT neighborship to be rebuilt. For example, the configuration changing of configured-level or system-id, will lead to all the neighbor connections of this node rebuilt. The incorrect modification of authentication, except for the neighbor connection broken, will lead to the permanent connection broken. The modification of interface, will lead to the neighbor state changing. In general, unauthorized modification of most RIFT configurations will pose there own set of security risks and the "Security Considerations" in the respective reference RFCs should be consulted.

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. These are the subtrees and data nodes and their sensitivity/vulnerability:

The exposure of the database will expose the detailed topology of the network. Network operators may consider their topologies to be sensitive confidential data.

For RIFT authentication, configuration is supported via the specification of key-chains [RFC8177] or the direct specification of key and authentication algorithm. Hence, authentication configuration inherits the security considerations of [RFC8177]. This includes the considerations with respect to the local storage and handling of authentication keys.

The actual authentication key data (whether locally specified or part of a key chain) is sensitive and needs to be kept secret from unauthorized parties; compromise of the key data would allow an attacker to forge RIFT packet that would be accepted as authentic, potentially compromising the entire domain.

5. IANA Considerations

RFC Ed.: Please replace all occurrences of 'XXXX' with the actual RFC number (and remove this note).

This document registers a URI in the IETF XML registry [RFC3688]. Following the format in [RFC3688], the following registration is requested to be made:

URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-rift

Registrant Contact: The IESG

XML: N/A, the requested URI is an XML namespace.

This document also requests one new YANG module name in the YANG Module Names registry [RFC6020] with the following suggestion:

name: ietf-rift

namespace: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-rift

prefix: rift

reference: RFC XXXX
