                    A YANG Data Model for MPLS Base
                      draft-ietf-mpls-base-yang-17

Abstract

   This document contains a specification of the MPLS base YANG data
   model.  The MPLS base YANG data model serves as a base framework for
   configuring and managing an MPLS switching subsystem on an MPLS-
   enabled router.  It is expected that other MPLS YANG data models
   (e.g.  MPLS Label Switched Path (LSP) Static, LDP or RSVP-TE YANG
   models) will augment the MPLS base YANG data model.

1.  Introduction

   A core routing YANG data model is defined in [RFC8349], and it
   provides a basis for the development of routing data models for
   specific Address Families (AFs).  Specifically, [RFC8349] defines a
   model for a generic Routing Information Base (RIB) that is Address-
   Family (AF) agnostic.  [RFC8349] also defines two instances of RIBs
   based on the generic RIB model for IPv4 and IPv6 AFs.

   The MPLS base model that is defined in this document augments the
   generic RIB model defined in [RFC8349] with additional data that
   enables MPLS forwarding for the specific destination prefix(es)
   present in the AF RIB(s) as described in the MPLS architecture
   document [RFC3031].

   The MPLS base model also defines a new instance of the generic RIB
   YANG data model as defined in [RFC8349] to store native MPLS routes.
   The native MPLS RIB instance stores route(s) that are not associated
   with other AF instance RIBs (such as IPv4, or IPv6 instance RIB(s)),

   but are enabled for MPLS forwarding.  Examples of such native MPLS
   routes are routes programmed by RSVP on transit MPLS router(s) along
   the path of a Label Switched Path (LSP).  Other example(s) are MPLS
   routes that cross-connect to specific Layer-2 adjacencies, such as
   Layer-2 Attachment Circuit(s) (ACs)), or Layer-3 adjacencies, such as
   Segment-Routing (SR) Adjacency Segments (Adj-SIDs) described in
   [RFC8402].

   The MPLS base YANG data model serves as a basis for future
   development of MPLS YANG data models covering more-sophisticated MPLS
   feature(s) and sub-system(s).  The main purpose is to provide
   essential building blocks for other YANG data models involving
   different control-plane protocols, and MPLS functions.

   To this end, it is expected that the MPLS base data model will be
   augmented by a number of other YANG modules developed at IETF (e.g.
   by TEAS and MPLS working groups).

   The YANG module in this document conforms to the Network Management
   Datastore Architecture (NMDA) [RFC8342].

2.  MPLS Base Model

   This document describes the 'ietf-mpls' YANG module that provides
   base components of the MPLS data model.  It is expected that other
   MPLS YANG modules will augment 'ietf-mpls' YANG module for other MPLS
   extension to provision Label Switched Paths (LSPs) (e.g.  MPLS
   Static, MPLS LDP or MPLS RSVP-TE LSP(s)).

2.1.  Model Overview

   This document models MPLS labeled routes as an augmentation of the
   generic routing RIB data model as defined in [RFC8349].  For example,
   IP prefix routes (e.g. routes stored in IPv4 or IPv6 RIBs) are
   augmented to carry additional data to enable it for MPLS forwarding.

   This document also defines a new instance of the generic RIB defined
   in [RFC8349] to store native MPLS route(s) (described further in
   Section 2.3) by extending the identity 'address-family' defined in
   [RFC8349] with a new "mpls" identity as suggested in Section 3 of
   [RFC8349].

                Figure 1: Relationship between MPLS modules

   The 'ietf-mpls' YANG module defines the following identities:

   mpls:

Saad, et al.             Expires April 29, 2021                 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft          MPLS Base YANG Data Model           October 2020

      This identity extends the 'address-family' identity for RIB
      instance(s) identity as defined in [RFC8349] to represent the
      native MPLS RIB instance.

   label-block-alloc-mode:

      A base YANG identity for supported label block allocation mode(s).

   The 'ietf-mpls' YANG module contains the following high-level types
   and groupings:

   mpls-operations-type:

      An enumeration type that represents support for possible MPLS
      operation types (impose-and-forward, pop-and-forward, pop-impose-
      and-forward, and pop-and-lookup)

   nhlfe-role:

      An enumeration type that represents the role of the NHLFE entry.

   nhlfe-single-contents:

      A YANG grouping that describes single Next Hop Label Forwarding
      Entry (NHLFE) and its associated parameters as described in the
      MPLS architecture document [RFC3031].  This grouping is specific
      to the case when a single next-hop is associated with the route.

   The NHLFE is used when forwarding labeled packet.  It contains the
   following information:

   1.  the packet's next hop.  For 'nhlfe-single-contents' only a single
       next hop is expected, while for 'nhlfe-multiple-contents'
       multiple next hops are possible.

   2.  the operation to perform on the packet's label stack; this can be
       one of the following operations: a) replace the label at the top
       of the label stack with one or more specified new label b) pop
       the label stack c) replace the label at the top of the label
       stack with a specified new label, and then push one or more
       specified new labels onto the label stack.  d) push one or more
       label(s) on an unlabeled packet

   It may also contain:

     d) the data link encapsulation to use when transmitting the packet

     e) the way to encode the label stack when transmitting the packet

     f) any other information needed in order to properly dispose of
        the packet.

   nhlfe-multiple-contents:

      A YANG grouping that describes a set of NHLFE(s) and their
      associated parameters as described in the MPLS architecture
      document [RFC3031].  This grouping is used when multiple next-hops
      are associated with the route.

   interfaces-mpls:

      A YANG grouping that describes the list of MPLS enabled interfaces
      on a device.

   label-blocks:

      A YANG grouping that describes the list of assigned MPLS label
      blocks and their properties.

   rib-mpls-properties:

      A YANG grouping for the augmentation of the generic RIB with MPLS
      label forwarding data as defined in [RFC3031].

   rib-active-route-mpls-input:

      A YANG grouping for the augmentation to the 'active-route' RPC
      that is specific to the MPLS RIB instance.

2.3.  Model Design

   The MPLS routing model is based on the core routing data model
   defined in [RFC8349].  Figure 2 shows the extensions introduced by
   the MPLS base model on defined RIB(s).

           +: created by the MPLS base model
           o: augmented by the MPLS base model

        Figure 2: Relationship between MPLS model and RIB instances

   As shown in Figure 2, the MPLS base YANG data model augments defined
   instance(s) of AF RIB(s) with additional data that enables MPLS
   forwarding for destination prefix(es) store in such RIB(s).  For
   example, an IPv4 prefix stored in RIB(v4) is augmented to carry a
   MPLS local label and per next-hop remote label(s) to enable MPLS
   forwarding for such prefix.

   The MPLS base model also creates a separate instance of the generic
   RIB model defined in [RFC8349] to store MPLS native route(s) that are
   enabled for MPLS forwarding, but not stored in other AF RIB(s).

   Some examples of such native MPLS routes are:

   o  routes programmed by RSVP on Label Switched Router(s) (LSRs) along
      the path of a Label Switched Path (LSP),

   o  routes that cross-connect an MPLS local label to a Layer-2, or
      Layer-3 VRF,

   o  routes that cross-connect an MPLS local label to a specific
      Layer-2 adjacency or interface, such as Layer-2 Attachment
      Circuit(s) (ACs), or

   o  routes that cross-connect an MPLS local label to a Layer-3
      adjacency or interface - such as MPLS Segment-Routing (SR)
      Adjacency Segments (Adj-SIDs), SR MPLS Binding SIDs, etc. as
      defined in [RFC8402].

2.5.  Model YANG Module

   This section describes the 'ietf-mpls' YANG module that provides base
   components of the MPLS data model.  Other YANG module(s) may import
   and augment the base MPLS module to add feature specific data.

   The ietf-mpls YANG module imports the following YANG modules:

   o  ietf-routing defined in [RFC8349]

   o  ietf-routing-types defined in [RFC8294]

   o  ietf-interfaces defined in [RFC8343]

   This YANG module also references the following RFCs in defining the
   types and YANG grouping of the YANG module: [RFC3032], [RFC3031], and
   [RFC7424].

4.  Security Considerations

   The YANG module specified in this document define 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.  These are the subtrees and data nodes
   and their sensitivity/vulnerability:

   "/rt:routing/mpls:mpls/mpls:label-blocks": there are data nodes under
   this path that are writeable such as 'start-label' and 'end-label'.
   Write operations to those data npdes may cause disruptive action to
   existing traffic.

   Some of the readable data nodes in these 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:

   "/rt:routing/rt:ribs/rt:rib/rt:routes/rt:route/rt:next-hop/rt:next-
   hop-options/rt:next-hop-list/rt:next-hop-list/rt:next-hop" and
   "/rt:routing/rt:ribs/rt:rib/rt:active-route/rt:output/rt:route/
   rt:next-hop/rt:next-hop-options/rt:simple-next-hop": these two paths
   are augmented by additional MPLS leaf(s) defined in this model.
   Access to this information may disclose the next-hop or path per
   prefix and/or other information.

   sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments.  It is thus
   important to control access to these operations.  These are the
   operations and their sensitivity/vulnerability:

   "/rt:routing/rt:ribs/rt:rib/rt:active-route/rt:input" and
   "/rt:routing/rt:ribs/rt:rib/rt:active-route/rt:output/rt:route":
   these two paths are augmented by additional MPLS data node(s) that
   are defined in this model.  Access to those path(s) may may disclose
   information about per prefix route and/or other information and that
   may be further used for further attack(s).

   The security considerations spelled out in [RFC3031] and [RFC3032]
   apply for this document as well.

6.  Appendix A.  Data Tree Instance Example

   A simple network setup is shown in Figure 5.  R1 runs the ISIS
   routing protocol, and learns reachability about two IPv4 prefixes:
   P1: 198.51.100.1/32 and P2: 198.51.100.1/32, and two IPv6 prefixes
   P3: 2001:db8:0:10::1/64 and P4: 2001:db8:0:10::1/64.  We also assume
   that R1 learns about local and remote MPLS label bindings for each
   prefix using ISIS (e.g. using Segment-Routing (SR) extensions).
