A YANG Network Data Model for Layer 3 VPNs
Abstract
-
As a complement to the Layer 3 Virtual Private Network Service Model (L3SM), which is used for communication between customers and service providers, this document defines an L3VPN Network Model (L3NM) that can be used for the provisioning of Layer 3 Virtual Private Network (L3VPN) services within a service provider network. The model provides a network-centric view of L3VPN services.
The L3NM is meant to be used by a network controller to derive the configuration information that will be sent to relevant network devices. The model can also facilitate communication between a service orchestrator and a network controller/orchestrator.

1. Introduction
-
[RFC8299] defines a YANG Layer 3 Virtual Private Network Service Model (L3SM) that can be used for communication between customers and service providers. Such a model focuses on describing the customer view of the Virtual Private Network (VPN) services and provides an abstracted view of the customer's requested services. That approach limits the usage of the L3SM to the role of a customer service model (as per [RFC8309]).
This document defines a YANG module called the "L3VPN Network Model" (L3NM). The L3NM is aimed at providing a network-centric view of Layer 3 (L3) VPN services. This data model can be used to facilitate communication between the service orchestrator and the network controller/orchestrator by allowing more network-centric information to be included. It enables such additional capabilities as resource management, or it serves as a multi-domain orchestration interface where logical resources (such as route targets or route distinguishers) must be coordinated.
This document uses the common VPN YANG module defined in [RFC9181].
This document does not obsolete [RFC8299]. These two modules are used for similar objectives but with different scopes and views.
The L3NM YANG module was initially built with a "prune and extend" approach, taking as a starting point the YANG module described in [RFC8299]. Nevertheless, the L3NM is not defined as an augment to the L3SM, because a specific structure is required to meet network- oriented L3 needs.
Some information captured in the L3SM can be passed by the orchestrator in the L3NM (e.g., customer) or be used to feed some L3NM attributes (e.g., actual forwarding policies). Also, some information captured in the L3SM may be maintained locally within the orchestrator, which is in charge of maintaining the correlation between a customer view and its network instantiation. Likewise, some information captured and exposed using the L3NM can feed the service layer (e.g., capabilities) to drive VPN service order handling and thus the L3SM.
Section 5.1 of [RFC8969] illustrates how the L3NM can be used within the network management automation architecture.
The L3NM does not attempt to address all deployment cases, especially those where L3VPN connectivity is supported through the coordination of different VPNs in different underlying networks. More complex deployment scenarios involving the coordination of different VPN instances and different technologies to provide end-to-end VPN connectivity are addressed by complementary YANG modules, e.g., [YANG-Composed-VPN].
The L3NM focuses on Layer 3 VPNs based on BGP Provider Edges (PEs) as described in [RFC4026], [RFC4110], and [RFC4364]; and Multicast VPNs as described in [RFC6037] and [RFC6513].
The YANG data model in this document conforms to the Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA) defined in [RFC8342].
2. 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.
This document assumes that the reader is familiar with the contents of [RFC6241], [RFC7950], [RFC8299], [RFC8309], and [RFC8453] and uses the terminology defined in those documents.
This document uses the term "network model" as defined in Section 2.1 of [RFC8969].
The meanings of the symbols in the tree diagrams are defined in [RFC8340].
This document makes use of the following terms:
Layer 3 VPN Service Model (L3SM): A YANG data model that describes the service requirements of an L3VPN that interconnects a set of sites from the point of view of the customer. The customer service model does not provide details on the service provider network. The L3VPN customer service model is defined in [RFC8299]. Layer 3 VPN Network Model (L3NM): A YANG data model that describes a VPN service in the service provider network. It contains information on the service provider network and might include allocated resources. It can be used by network controllers to manage and control the VPN service configuration in the service provider network. The corresponding YANG module can be used by a service orchestrator to request a VPN service to a network controller. Service orchestrator: A functional entity that interacts with the customer of an L3VPN. The service orchestrator interacts with the customer using the L3SM. The service orchestrator is responsible for the Customer Edge to Provider Edge (CE-PE) attachment circuits, the PE selection, and requesting the VPN service to the network controller. Network orchestrator: A functional entity that is hierarchically intermediate between a service orchestrator and network controllers. A network orchestrator can manage one or several network controllers. Network controller: A functional entity responsible for the control and management of the service provider network. VPN node: An abstraction that represents a set of policies applied on a PE and belonging to a single VPN service. A VPN service involves one or more VPN nodes. As it is an abstraction, the network controller will decide how to implement a VPN node. For example, in a BGP-based VPN, a VPN node could typically be mapped to a Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) instance. VPN network access: An abstraction that represents the network interfaces that are associated with a given VPN node. Traffic coming from the VPN network access belongs to the VPN. The attachment circuits (bearers) between CEs and PEs are terminated in the VPN network access. A reference to the bearer is maintained to allow keeping the link between the L3SM and L3NM when both models are used in a given deployment. VPN site: A VPN customer's location that is connected to the service provider network via a CE-PE link, which can access at least one VPN [RFC4176]. VPN service provider: A service provider that offers VPN-related services [RFC4176]. Service provider network: A network that is able to provide VPN- related services.This document is aimed at modeling BGP PE-based VPNs in a service provider network, so the terms defined in [RFC4026] and [RFC4176] are used in this document as well.

4. L3NM Reference Architecture
-
Figure 1 depicts the reference architecture for the L3NM. The figure is an expansion of the architecture presented in Section 5 of [RFC8299]; it decomposes the box marked "orchestration" in that section into three separate functional components: service orchestration, network orchestration, and domain orchestration.
Although some deployments may choose to construct a monolithic orchestration component (covering both service and network matters), this document advocates for a clear separation between service and network orchestration components for the sake of better flexibility. Such a design adheres to the L3VPN reference architecture defined in Section 1.3 of [RFC4176]. This separation relies upon a dedicated communication interface between these components and appropriate YANG modules that reflect network-related information. Such information is hidden from customers.
The intelligence for translating customer-facing information into network-centric information (and vice versa) is implementation specific.
The terminology from [RFC8309] is used here to show the distinction between the customer service model, the service delivery model, the network configuration model, and the device configuration model. In that context, the "domain orchestration" and "config manager" roles may be performed by "controllers".

Figure 1: L3NM Reference Architecture
-
The customer may use a variety of means to request a service that may trigger the instantiation of an L3NM. The customer may use the L3SM or more abstract models to request a service that relies upon an L3VPN service. For example, the customer may supply an IP Connectivity Provisioning Profile (CPP) that characterizes the requested service [RFC7297], an enhanced VPN (VPN+) service [Enhanced-VPN-Framework], or an IETF network slice service [Network-Slices-Framework].
Note also that both the L3SM and the L3NM may be used in the context of the Abstraction and Control of TE Networks (ACTN) framework [RFC8453]. Figure 2 shows the Customer Network Controller (CNC), the Multi-Domain Service Coordinator (MDSC), the Provisioning Network Controller (PNC) components, and the interfaces where the L3SM and L3NM are used.

5. Relationship to Other YANG Data Models
-
The "ietf-vpn-common" module [RFC9181] includes a set of identities, types, and groupings that are meant to be reused by VPN-related YANG modules independently of the layer (e.g., Layer 2, Layer 3) and the type of the module (e.g., network model, service model), including future revisions of existing models (e.g., [RFC8299] or [RFC8466]). The L3NM reuses these common types and groupings.
In order to avoid data duplication and to ease passing data between layers when required (service layer to network layer and vice versa), early versions of the L3NM reused many of the data nodes that are defined in [RFC8299]. Nevertheless, that approach was abandoned in favor of the "ietf-vpn-common" module because that initial design was interpreted as if the deployment of the L3NM depends on the L3SM, while this is not the case. For example, a service provider may decide to use the L3NM to build its L3VPN services without exposing the L3SM.
As discussed in Section 4, the L3NM is meant to manage L3VPN services within a service provider network. The module provides a network view of the service. Such a view is only visible within the service provider and is not exposed outside (to customers, for example). The items below discuss how the L3NM interfaces with other YANG modules:
L3SM: The L3NM is not a customer service model.
-
The internal view of the service (i.e., the L3NM) may be mapped to an external view that is visible to customers: the L3VPN Service Model (L3SM) [RFC8299].
The L3NM can be fed with inputs that are requested by customers. Such requests typically rely upon an L3SM template. Concretely, some parts of the L3SM module can be directly mapped to the L3NM, while other parts are generated as a function of the requested service and local guidelines. Some other parts are local to the service provider and do not map directly to the L3SM.
Note that using the L3NM within a service provider does not assume, nor does it preclude, exposing the VPN service via the L3SM. This is deployment specific. Nevertheless, the design of the L3NM tries to align as much as possible with the features supported by the L3SM to ease the grafting of both the L3NM and the L3SM for the sake of highly automated VPN service provisioning and delivery.
Network Topology Modules: An L3VPN involves nodes that are part of a topology managed by the service provider network. The topology can be represented using the network topology YANG module defined in [RFC8345] or its extension, such as a network YANG module for Service Attachment Points (SAPs) [YANG-SAPs]. Device Modules: The L3NM is not a device model.-
Once a global VPN service is captured by means of the L3NM, the actual activation and provisioning of the VPN service will involve a variety of device modules to tweak the required functions for the delivery of the service. These functions are supported by the VPN nodes and can be managed using device YANG modules. A non- comprehensive list of such device YANG modules is provided below:
- Routing management [RFC8349].
- BGP [BGP-YANG].
- PIM [PIM-YANG].
- NAT management [RFC8512].
- QoS management [QoS-YANG].
- ACLs [RFC8519].
How the L3NM is used to derive device-specific actions is implementation specific.
-
6. Sample Uses of the L3NM Data Model
-
This section provides a non-exhaustive list of examples that illustrate contexts where the L3NM can be used.
6.1. Enterprise Layer 3 VPN Services
-
Enterprise L3VPNs are one of the most demanded services for carriers; therefore, L3NM can be useful for automating the provisioning and maintenance of these VPNs. Templates and batch processes can be built, and as a result many parameters are needed for the creation from scratch of a VPN that can be abstracted to the upper Software- Defined Networking (SDN) layer [RFC7149] [RFC7426], but some manual intervention will still be required.
A common function that is supported by VPNs is the addition or removal of VPN nodes. Workflows can use the L3NM in these scenarios to add or prune nodes from the network data model as required.
6.2. Multi-Domain Resource Management
-
The implementation of L3VPN services that span administratively separated domains (i.e., that are under the administration of different management systems or controllers) requires some network resources to be synchronized between systems. Particularly, resources must be adequately managed in each domain to avoid broken configurations.
For example, route targets (RTs) shall be synchronized between PEs. When all PEs are controlled by the same management system, RT allocation can be performed by that management system. In cases where the service spans multiple management systems, the task of allocating RTs has to be aligned across the domains; therefore, the network model must provide a way to specify RTs. In addition, route distinguishers (RDs) must also be synchronized to avoid collisions of RD allocations between separate management systems. An incorrect allocation might lead to the same RD and IP prefixes being exported by different PEs.
6.3. Management of Multicast Services
-
Multicast services over L3VPNs can be implemented using dual PIM MVPNs (also known as the draft-rosen model) [RFC6037] or MVPNs based on Multiprotocol BGP (MP-BGP) [RFC6513] [RFC6514]. Both methods are supported and equally effective, but the main difference is that MP- BGP-based MVPNs do not require multicast configuration on the service provider network. MP-BGP MVPNs employ the intra-AS BGP control plane and PIM Sparse Mode [RFC7761] as the data plane. The PIM state information is maintained between PEs using the same architecture that is used for unicast VPNs.
On the other hand, [RFC6037] has limitations, such as reduced options for transport, control plane scalability, availability, operational inconsistency, and the need to maintain state in the backbone. Because of these limitations, MP-BGP MVPNs provide the architectural model that has been taken as the base for implementing multicast services in L3VPNs. In this scenario, BGP is used to autodiscover MVPN PE members and the customer PIM signaling is sent across the provider's core through MP-BGP. The multicast traffic is transported on MPLS Point-to-Multipoint (P2MP) Label Switched Paths (LSPs).
7. Description of the L3NM YANG Module
-
The L3NM ("ietf-l3vpn-ntw") is defined to manage L3VPNs in a service provider network. In particular, the "ietf-l3vpn-ntw" module can be used to create, modify, and retrieve L3VPN services of a network.
The full tree diagram of the module can be generated using the "pyang" tool [PYANG]. That tree is not included here because it is too long (Section 3.3 of [RFC8340]). Instead, subtrees are provided for the reader's convenience.
7.1. Overall Structure of the Module
-
The "ietf-l3vpn-ntw" module uses two main containers: 'vpn-profiles' and 'vpn-services' (see Figure 3).
The 'vpn-profiles' container is used by the provider to maintain a set of common VPN profiles that apply to one or several VPN services (Section 7.2).
The 'vpn-services' container maintains the set of VPN services managed within the service provider network. The 'vpn-service' is the data structure that abstracts a VPN service (Section 7.3).
module: ietf-l3vpn-ntw
+--rw l3vpn-ntw +--rw vpn-profiles | ... +--rw vpn-services +--rw vpn-service* [vpn-id] ... +--rw vpn-nodes +--rw vpn-node* [vpn-node-id] ... +--rw vpn-network-accesses +--rw vpn-network-access* [id] ...
Figure 3: Overall L3NM Tree Structure
-
Some of the data nodes are keyed by the address family. For the sake of data representation compactness, it is RECOMMENDED to use the dual-stack address family for data nodes that have the same value for both IPv4 and IPv6. If, for some reason, a data node is present for both dual-stack and IPv4 (or IPv6), the value that is indicated under dual-stack takes precedence over the value that is indicated under IPv4 (or IPv6).
7.2. VPN Profiles
-
The 'vpn-profiles' container (Figure 4) allows the VPN service provider to define and maintain a set of VPN profiles [RFC9181] that apply to one or several VPN services.
+--rw l3vpn-ntw +--rw vpn-profiles | +--rw valid-provider-identifiers | +--rw external-connectivity-identifier* [id] | | {external-connectivity}? | | +--rw id string | +--rw encryption-profile-identifier* [id] | | +--rw id string | +--rw qos-profile-identifier* [id] | | +--rw id string | +--rw bfd-profile-identifier* [id] | | +--rw id string | +--rw forwarding-profile-identifier* [id] | | +--rw id string | +--rw routing-profile-identifier* [id] | +--rw id string +--rw vpn-services ...
Figure 4: VPN Profiles Subtree Structure
-
This document does not make any assumption about the exact definition of these profiles. The exact definition of the profiles is local to each VPN service provider. The model only includes an identifier for these profiles in order to facilitate identifying and binding local policies when building a VPN service. As shown in Figure 4, the following identifiers can be included:
'external-connectivity-identifier': This identifier refers to a profile that defines the external connectivity provided to a VPN service (or a subset of VPN sites). External connectivity may be access to the Internet or restricted connectivity, such as access to a public/private cloud. 'encryption-profile-identifier': An encryption profile refers to a set of policies related to the encryption schemes and setup that can be applied when building and offering a VPN service. 'qos-profile-identifier': A Quality of Service (QoS) profile refers to a set of policies, such as classification, marking, and actions (e.g., [RFC3644]). 'bfd-profile-identifier': A Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) profile refers to a set of BFD policies [RFC5880] that can be invoked when building a VPN service. 'forwarding-profile-identifier': A forwarding profile refers to the policies that apply to the forwarding of packets conveyed within a VPN. Such policies may consist, for example, of applying Access Control Lists (ACLs). 'routing-profile-identifier': A routing profile refers to a set of routing policies that will be invoked (e.g., BGP policies) when delivering the VPN service.
7.3. VPN Services
-
The 'vpn-service' is the data structure that abstracts a VPN service in the service provider network. Each 'vpn-service' is uniquely identified by an identifier: 'vpn-id'. Such a 'vpn-id' is only meaningful locally (e.g., the network controller). The subtree of the 'vpn-services' is shown in Figure 5.
+--rw l3vpn-ntw +--rw vpn-profiles | ... +--rw vpn-services +--rw vpn-service* [vpn-id] +--rw vpn-id vpn-common:vpn-id +--rw vpn-name? string +--rw vpn-description? string +--rw customer-name? string +--rw parent-service-id? vpn-common:vpn-id +--rw vpn-type? identityref +--rw vpn-service-topology? identityref +--rw status | +--rw admin-status | | +--rw status? identityref | | +--rw last-change? yang:date-and-time | +--ro oper-status | +--ro status? identityref | +--ro last-change? yang:date-and-time +--rw vpn-instance-profiles | ... +--rw underlay-transport | +-- (type)? | +--:(abstract) | | +--rw transport-instance-id? string | | +--rw instance-type? identityref | +--:(protocol) | +--rw protocol* identityref +--rw external-connectivity | {vpn-common:external-connectivity}? | +--rw (profile)? | +--:(profile) | +--rw profile-name? leafref +--rw vpn-nodes ...
Figure 5: VPN Services Subtree Structure
-
The descriptions of the VPN service data nodes that are depicted in Figure 5 are as follows:
'vpn-id': An identifier that is used to uniquely identify the L3VPN service within the L3NM scope. 'vpn-name': Associates a name with the service in order to facilitate the identification of the service. 'vpn-description': Includes a textual description of the service.-
The internal structure of a VPN description is local to each VPN service provider.
'customer-name': Indicates the name of the customer who ordered the service. 'parent-service-id': Refers to an identifier of the parent service (e.g., L3SM, IETF network slice, VPN+) that triggered the creation of the VPN service. This identifier is used to easily correlate the (network) service as built in the network with a service order. A controller can use that correlation to enrich or populate some fields (e.g., description fields) as a function of local deployments. 'vpn-type': Indicates the VPN type. The values are taken from [RFC9181]. For the L3NM, this is typically set to "BGP/MPLS L3VPN", but other values may be defined to support specific Layer 3 VPN capabilities (e.g., [RFC9136]). 'vpn-service-topology': Indicates the network topology for the service: 'hub-spoke', 'any-to-any', or 'custom'. The network implementation of this attribute is defined by the correct usage of import and export targets (Section 4.3.5 of [RFC4364]). 'status': Used to track the service status of a given VPN service. Both operational status and administrative status are maintained together with a timestamp. For example, a service can be created but not put into effect.-
Administrative status and operational status can be used as a trigger to detect service anomalies. For example, a service that is declared active at the service layer but is still inactive at the network layer may be an indication that network provision actions are needed to align the observed service status with the expected service status.
'vpn-instance-profiles': Defines reusable parameters for the same 'vpn-service'.-
More details are provided in Section 7.4.
'underlay-transport': Describes the preference for the transport technology to carry the traffic of the VPN service. This preference is especially useful in networks with multiple domains and Network-to-Network Interface (NNI) types. The underlay transport can be expressed as an abstract transport instance (e.g., an identifier of a VPN+ instance, a virtual network identifier, or a network slice name) or as an ordered list of the actual protocols to be enabled in the network.-
A rich set of protocol identifiers that can be used to refer to an underlay transport are defined in [RFC9181].
'external-connectivity': Indicates whether/how external connectivity is provided to the VPN service. For example, a service provider may provide external connectivity to a VPN customer (e.g., to a public cloud). Such a service may involve tweaking both filtering and NAT rules (e.g., binding a Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) interface with a NAT instance as discussed in Section 2.10 of [RFC8512]). These value-added features may be bound to all, or a subset of, network accesses. Some of these value-added features may be implemented in a PE or in nodes other than PEs (e.g., a P node or even a dedicated node that hosts the NAT function).-
Only a pointer to a local profile that defines the external- connectivity feature is supported in this document.
'vpn-node': An abstraction that represents a set of policies applied to a network node and belonging to a single 'vpn-service'. A VPN service is typically built by adding instances of 'vpn-node' to the 'vpn-nodes' container.-
A 'vpn-node' contains 'vpn-network-accesses', which are the interfaces attached to the VPN by which the customer traffic is received. Therefore, the customer sites are connected to the 'vpn-network-accesses'.
Note that because this is a network data model, information about customers' sites is not required in the model. Rather, such information is relevant in the L3SM. Whether that information is included in the L3NM, e.g., to populate the various 'description' data nodes, is implementation specific.
More details are provided in Section 7.5.
-
7.4. VPN Instance Profiles
-
VPN instance profiles are meant to factorize data nodes that are used at many levels of the model. Generic VPN instance profiles are defined at the VPN service level and then called at the VPN node and VPN network access levels. Each VPN instance profile is identified by 'profile-id'. This identifier is then referenced for one or multiple VPN nodes (Section 7.5) so that the controller can identify generic resources (e.g., RTs and RDs) to be configured for a given VRF instance.

Figure 6: Subtree Structure of VPN Instance Profiles
-
The descriptions of the listed data nodes are as follows:
'profile-id': Used to uniquely identify a VPN instance profile. 'role': Indicates the role of the VPN instance profile in the VPN. Role values are defined in [RFC9181] (e.g., 'any-to-any-role', 'spoke-role', 'hub-role'). 'local-as': Indicates the Autonomous System Number (ASN) that is configured for the VPN node. 'rd': As defined in [RFC9181], the following RD assignment modes are supported: direct assignment, full automatic assignment, automatic assignment from a given pool, and no assignment. For illustration purposes, the following modes can be used in the deployment cases: 'directly-assigned': The VPN service provider (service orchestrator) assigns RDs explicitly. This case will fit with a brownfield scenario where some existing services need to be updated by the VPN service provider. 'full-auto': The network controller auto-assigns RDs. This can apply for the deployment of new services. 'no-rd': The VPN service provider (service orchestrator) explicitly wants no RD to be assigned. This case can be used for CE testing within the network or for troubleshooting proposes.-
Also, the module accommodates deployments where only the Assigned Number subfield of RDs (Section 4.2 of [RFC4364]) is assigned from a pool while the Administrator subfield is set to, for example, the Router ID that is assigned to a VPN node. The module supports these modes for managing the Assigned Number subfield: explicit assignment, auto-assignment from a pool, and full auto-assignment.
'address-family': Includes a set of data nodes per address family: 'address-family': Identifies the address family. It can be set to 'ipv4', 'ipv6', or 'dual-stack'. 'vpn-targets': Specifies RT import/export rules for the VPN service (Section 4.3 of [RFC4364]). 'maximum-routes': Indicates the maximum number of prefixes that the VPN node can accept for a given routing protocol. If 'protocol' is set to 'any', this means that the maximum value applies to each active routing protocol. 'multicast': Enables multicast traffic in the VPN service. Refer to Section 7.7. -
7.5. VPN Nodes
-
The 'vpn-node' is an abstraction that represents a set of common policies applied on a given network node (typically, a PE) and belonging to one L3VPN service. The 'vpn-node' includes a parameter to indicate the network node on which it is applied. In the case that the 'ne-id' points to a specific PE, the 'vpn-node' will likely be mapped to a VRF instance in the node. However, the model also allows pointing to an abstract node. In this case, the network controller will decide how to split the 'vpn-node' into VRF instances.
The VPN node subtree structure is shown in Figure 7.

Figure 7: VPN Node Subtree Structure
-
The descriptions of the 'vpn-node' data nodes (Figure 7) are as follows:
'vpn-node-id': An identifier that uniquely identifies a node that enables a VPN network access. 'description': Provides a textual description of the VPN node. 'ne-id': Includes a unique identifier of the network element where the VPN node is deployed. 'local-as': Indicates the ASN that is configured for the VPN node. 'router-id': Indicates a 32-bit number that is used to uniquely identify a router within an AS. 'active-vpn-instance-profiles': Lists the set of active VPN instance profiles for this VPN node. Concretely, one or more VPN instance profiles that are defined at the VPN service level can be enabled at the VPN node level; each of these profiles is uniquely identified by means of 'profile-id'. The structure of 'active- vpn-instance-profiles' is the same as the structure discussed in Section 7.4, except that the structure of 'active-vpn-instance- profiles' includes 'router-id' but does not include the 'role' leaf. The value of 'router-id' indicated under 'active-vpn- instance-profiles' takes precedence over the 'router-id' under the 'vpn-node' for the indicated address family. For example, Router IDs can be configured per address family. This capability can be used, for example, to configure an IPv6 address as a Router ID when such a capability is supported by involved routers.-
Values defined in 'active-vpn-instance-profiles' override the values defined at the VPN service level. An example is shown in Appendix A.3.
'msdp': For redundancy purposes, the Multicast Source Discovery Protocol (MSDP) [RFC3618] may be enabled and used to share state information about sources between multiple Rendezvous Points (RPs). The purpose of MSDP in this context is to enhance the robustness of the multicast service. MSDP may be configured on non-RP routers; this is useful in a domain that does not support multicast sources but does support multicast transit. 'groups': Lists the groups to which a VPN node belongs [RFC9181]. For example, the 'group-id' is used to associate redundancy or protection constraints with VPN nodes. 'status': Tracks the status of a node involved in a VPN service. Both operational status and administrative status are maintained. A mismatch between the administrative status vs. the operational status can be used as a trigger to detect anomalies. 'vpn-network-accesses': Represents the point to which sites are connected.-
Note that unlike the L3SM, the L3NM does not need to model the customer site -- only the points that receive traffic from the site (i.e., the PE side of Provider Edge to Customer Edge (PE-CE) connections). Hence, the VPN network access contains the connectivity information between the provider's network and the customer premises. The VPN profiles ('vpn-profiles') have a set of routing policies that can be applied during the service creation.
See Section 7.6 for more details.

7.6. VPN Network Accesses
-
The 'vpn-network-access' includes a set of data nodes that describe the access information for the traffic that belongs to a particular L3VPN (Figure 8).
... +--rw vpn-nodes +--rw vpn-node* [vpn-node-id] ... +--rw vpn-network-accesses +--rw vpn-network-access* [id] +--rw id vpn-common:vpn-id +--rw interface-id? string +--rw description? string +--rw vpn-network-access-type? identityref +--rw vpn-instance-profile? leafref +--rw status | +--rw admin-status | | +--rw status? identityref | | +--rw last-change? yang:date-and-time | +--ro oper-status | +--ro status? identityref | +--ro last-change? yang:date-and-time +--rw connection | ... +--rw ip-connection | ... +--rw routing-protocols | ... +--rw oam | ... +--rw security | ... +--rw service ...
Figure 8: VPN Network Access Subtree Structure
-
A 'vpn-network-access' (Figure 8) includes the following data nodes:
'id': An identifier of the VPN network access. 'interface-id': Indicates the physical or logical interface on which the VPN network access is bound. 'description': Includes a textual description of the VPN network access. 'vpn-network-access-type': Used to select the type of network interface to be deployed in the devices. The available defined values are as follows: 'point-to-point': Represents a direct connection between the endpoints. The controller must keep the association between a logical or physical interface on the device with the 'id' of the 'vpn-network-access'. 'multipoint': Represents a multipoint connection between the customer site and the PEs. The controller must keep the association between a logical or physical interface on the device with the 'id' of the 'vpn-network-access'. 'irb': Represents a connection coming from an L2VPN service. An identifier of such a service ('l2vpn-id') may be included in the 'connection' container, as depicted in Figure 9 (Section 7.6.1). The controller must keep the relationship between the logical tunnels or bridges on the devices with the 'id' of the 'vpn-network-access'. 'loopback': Represents the creation of a logical interface on a device. An example that illustrates how a loopback interface can be used in the L3NM is provided in Appendix A.2. 'vpn-instance-profile': Provides a pointer to an active VPN instance profile at the VPN node level. Referencing an active VPN instance profile implies that all associated data nodes will be inherited by the VPN network access. However, some inherited data nodes (e.g., multicast) can be overridden at the VPN network access level. In such a case, adjusted values take precedence over inherited values. 'status': Indicates both operational status and administrative status of a VPN network access. 'connection': Represents and groups the set of Layer 2 connectivity from where the traffic of the L3VPN in a particular VPN network access is coming. See Section 7.6.1. 'ip-connection': Contains Layer 3 connectivity information on a VPN network access (e.g., IP addressing). See Section 7.6.2. 'routing-protocols': Includes the CE-PE routing configuration information. See Section 7.6.3. 'oam': Specifies the Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM) mechanisms used for a VPN network access. See Section 7.6.4. 'security': Specifies the authentication and the encryption to be applied for a given VPN network access. See Section 7.6.5. 'service': Specifies the service parameters (e.g., QoS, multicast) to apply for a given VPN network access. See Section 7.6.6.
7.6.1. Connection
-
The 'connection' container represents the Layer 2 connectivity to the L3VPN for a particular VPN network access. As shown in the tree depicted in Figure 9, the 'connection' container defines protocols and parameters to enable such connectivity at Layer 2.
The traffic can enter the VPN with or without encapsulation (e.g., VLAN, QinQ). The 'encapsulation' container specifies the Layer 2 encapsulation to use (if any) and allows the configuration of the relevant tags.
The interface that is attached to the L3VPN is identified by the 'interface-id' at the 'vpn-network-access' level. From a network model perspective, it is expected that the 'interface-id' is sufficient to identify the interface. However, specific Layer 2 sub- interfaces may be required to be configured in some implementations/ deployments. Such a Layer-2-specific interface can be included in 'l2-termination-point'.
If a Layer 2 tunnel is needed to terminate the service in the CE-PE connection, the 'l2-tunnel-service' container is used to specify the required parameters to set such a tunneling service (e.g., a Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS) or a Virtual eXtensible Local Area Network (VXLAN)). An identity called 'l2-tunnel-type' is defined for Layer 2 tunnel selection. The container can also identify the pseudowire (Section 6.1 of [RFC8077]).
As discussed in Section 7.6, 'l2vpn-id' is used to identify the L2VPN service that is associated with an Integrated Routing and Bridging (IRB) interface.
To accommodate implementations that require internal bridging, a local bridge reference can be specified in 'local-bridge-reference'. Such a reference may be a local bridge domain.
A site, as per [RFC4176], represents a VPN customer's location that is connected to the service provider network via a CE-PE link, which can access at least one VPN. The connection from the site to the service provider network is the bearer. Every site is associated with a list of bearers. A bearer is the Layer 2 connection with the site. In the L3NM, it is assumed that the bearer has been allocated by the service provider at the service orchestration stage. The bearer is associated with a network element and a port. Hence, a bearer is just a 'bearer-reference' to allow the association between a service request (e.g., the L3SM) and the L3NM.
The L3NM can be used to create a Link Aggregation Group (LAG) interface for a given L3VPN service ('lag-interface') [IEEE802.1AX]. Such a LAG interface can be referenced under 'interface-id' (Section 7.6).

7.6.2. IP Connection
-
This container is used to group Layer 3 connectivity information, particularly the IP addressing information, of a VPN network access. The allocated address represents the PE interface address configuration. Note that a distinct Layer 3 interface other than the interface indicated under the 'connection' container may be needed to terminate the Layer 3 service. The identifier of such an interface is included in 'l3-termination-point'. For example, this data node can be used to carry the identifier of a bridge domain interface.
As shown in Figure 10, the 'ip-connection' container can include IPv4, IPv6, or both if dual-stack is enabled.
... +--rw vpn-network-accesses +--rw vpn-network-access* [id] ... +--rw ip-connection | +--rw l3-termination-point? string | +--rw ipv4 {vpn-common:ipv4}? | | ... | +--rw ipv6 {vpn-common:ipv6}? | ... ...
Figure 10: IP Connection Subtree Structure
-
For both IPv4 and IPv6, the IP connection supports three IP address assignment modes for customer addresses: provider DHCP, DHCP relay, and static addressing. Note that for the IPv6 case, Stateless Address Autoconfiguration (SLAAC) [RFC4862] can be used. For both IPv4 and IPv6, 'address-allocation-type' is used to indicate the IP address allocation mode to activate for a given VPN network access.
When 'address-allocation-type' is set to 'provider-dhcp', DHCP assignments can be made locally or by an external DHCP server. Such behavior is controlled by setting 'dhcp-service-type'.
Figure 11 shows the structure of the dynamic IPv4 address assignment (i.e., by means of DHCP).

Figure 11: IP Connection Subtree Structure (IPv4)
-
Figure 12 shows the structure of the dynamic IPv6 address assignment (i.e., DHCPv6 and/or SLAAC). Note that if 'address-allocation-type' is set to 'slaac', the Prefix Information option of Router Advertisements that will be issued for SLAAC purposes will carry the IPv6 prefix that is determined by 'local-address' and 'prefix- length'. For example, if 'local-address' is set to '2001:db8:0:1::1' and 'prefix-length' is set to '64', the IPv6 prefix that will be used is '2001:db8:0:1::/64'.

Figure 12: IP Connection Subtree Structure (IPv6)
-
In the case of static addressing (Figure 13), the model supports the assignment of several IP addresses in the same 'vpn-network-access'. To identify which of the addresses is the primary address of a connection, the 'primary-address' reference MUST be set with the corresponding 'address-id'.

7.6.3. CE-PE Routing Protocols
-
A VPN service provider can configure one or more routing protocols associated with a particular 'vpn-network-access'. Such routing protocols are enabled between the PE and the CE. Each instance is uniquely identified to accommodate scenarios where multiple instances of the same routing protocol have to be configured on the same link.
The subtree of the 'routing-protocols' is shown in Figure 14.
... +--rw vpn-network-accesses +--rw vpn-network-access* [id] ... +--rw routing-protocols | +--rw routing-protocol* [id] | +--rw id string | +--rw type? identityref | +--rw routing-profiles* [id] | | +--rw id leafref | | +--rw type? identityref | +--rw static | | ... | +--rw bgp | | ... | +--rw ospf | | ... | +--rw isis | | ... | +--rw rip | | ... | +--rw vrrp | ... +--rw security ...
Figure 14: Routing Subtree Structure
-
Multiple routing instances can be defined, each uniquely identified by an 'id'. The type of routing instance is indicated in 'type'. The values of these attributes are those defined in [RFC9181] (the 'routing-protocol-type' identity).
Configuring multiple instances of the same routing protocol does not automatically imply that, from a device configuration perspective, there will be parallel instances (e.g., multiple processes) running on the PE-CE link. It is up to each implementation (typically, network orchestration, as shown in Figure 1) to decide on the appropriate configuration as a function of underlying capabilities and service provider operational guidelines. As an example, when multiple BGP peers need to be implemented, multiple instances of BGP must be configured as part of this model. However, from a device configuration point of view, this could be implemented as:
- Multiple BGP processes with a single neighbor running in each process.
- A single BGP process with multiple neighbors running.
- A combination thereof.
Routing configuration does not include low-level policies. Such policies are handled at the device configuration level. Local policies of a service provider (e.g., filtering) are implemented as part of the device configuration; these are not captured in the L3NM, but the model allows local profiles to be associated with routing instances ('routing-profiles'). Note that these routing profiles can be scoped to capture parameters that are globally applied to all L3VPN services within a service provider network, while customized L3VPN parameters are captured by means of the L3NM. The provisioning of an L3VPN service will thus rely upon the instantiation of these global routing profiles and the customized L3NM.
7.6.3.1. Static Routing
-
The L3NM supports the configuration of one or more IPv4/IPv6 static routes. Since the same structure is used for both IPv4 and IPv6, using one single container to group both static entries independently of their address family was considered at one time, but that design was abandoned to ease the mapping, using the structure provided in [RFC8299].
The static routing subtree structure is shown in Figure 15.
... +--rw routing-protocols | +--rw routing-protocol* [id] | ... | +--rw static | | +--rw cascaded-lan-prefixes | | +--rw ipv4-lan-prefixes* | | | [lan next-hop] | | | {vpn-common:ipv4}? | | | +--rw lan inet:ipv4-prefix | | | +--rw lan-tag? string | | | +--rw next-hop union | | | +--rw bfd-enable? boolean | | | +--rw metric? uint32 | | | +--rw preference? uint32 | | | +--rw status | | | +--rw admin-status | | | | +--rw status? identityref | | | | +--rw last-change? yang:date-and-time | | | +--ro oper-status | | | +--ro status? identityref | | | +--ro last-change? yang:date-and-time | | +--rw ipv6-lan-prefixes* | | [lan next-hop] | | {vpn-common:ipv6}? | | +--rw lan inet:ipv6-prefix | | +--rw lan-tag? string | | +--rw next-hop union | | +--rw bfd-enable? boolean | | +--rw metric? uint32 | | +--rw preference? uint32 | | +--rw status | | +--rw admin-status | | | +--rw status? identityref | | | +--rw last-change? yang:date-and-time | | +--ro oper-status | | +--ro status? identityref | | +--ro last-change? yang:date-and-time ...
Figure 15: Static Routing Subtree Structure
-
As depicted in Figure 15, the following data nodes can be defined for a given IP prefix:
'lan-tag': Indicates a local tag (e.g., "myfavorite-lan") that is used to enforce local policies. 'next-hop': Indicates the next hop to be used for the static route. It can be identified by an IP address, a predefined next-hop type (e.g., 'discard' or 'local-link'), etc. 'bfd-enable': Indicates whether BFD is enabled or disabled for this static route entry. 'metric': Indicates the metric associated with the static route entry. This metric is used when the route is exported into an IGP. 'preference': Indicates the preference associated with the static route entry. This preference is used to select a preferred route among routes to the same destination prefix. 'status': Used to convey the status of a static route entry. This data node can also be used to control the (de)activation of individual static route entries.
7.6.3.2. BGP
-
The L3NM allows the configuration of a BGP neighbor, including a set of parameters that are pertinent to be tweaked at the network level for service customization purposes. The 'bgp' container does not aim to include every BGP parameter; a comprehensive set of parameters belongs more to the BGP device model.
The BGP routing subtree structure is shown in Figure 16.

Figure 16: BGP Routing Subtree Structure
-
The following data nodes are captured in Figure 16. It is up to the implementation (e.g., network orchestrator) to derive the corresponding BGP device configuration:
'description': Includes a description of the BGP session. 'local-as': Indicates a local AS Number (ASN), if a distinct ASN is required other than the ASN configured at the VPN node level. 'peer-as': Conveys the customer's ASN. 'address-family': Indicates the address family of the peer. It can be set to 'ipv4', 'ipv6', or 'dual-stack'.-
This address family will be used together with the 'vpn-type' to derive the appropriate Address Family Identifiers (AFIs) / Subsequent Address Family Identifiers (SAFIs) that will be part of the derived device configurations (e.g., unicast IPv4 MPLS L3VPN (AFI,SAFI = 1,128) as defined in Section 4.3.4 of [RFC4364]).
'local-address': Specifies an address or a reference to an interface to use when establishing the BGP transport session. 'neighbor': Can indicate two neighbors (each for a given address family) or one neighbor (if the 'address-family' attribute is set to 'dual-stack'). A list of IP address(es) of the BGP neighbor(s) can then be conveyed in this data node. 'multihop': Indicates the number of allowed IP hops between a PE and its BGP peer. 'as-override': If set, this parameter indicates whether ASN override is enabled, i.e., replacing the ASN of the customer specified in the AS_PATH BGP attribute with the ASN identified in the 'local- as' attribute. 'allow-own-as': Used in some topologies (e.g., hub-and-spoke) to allow the provider's ASN to be included in the AS_PATH BGP attribute received from a CE. Loops are prevented by setting 'allow-own-as' to a maximum number of the provider's ASN occurrences. By default, this parameter is set to '0' (that is, reject any AS_PATH attribute that includes the provider's ASN). 'prepend-global-as': When distinct ASNs are configured at the VPN node and network access levels, this parameter controls whether the ASN provided at the VPN node level is prepended to the AS_PATH attribute. 'send-default-route': Controls whether default routes can be advertised to the peer. 'site-of-origin': Meant to uniquely identify the set of routes learned from a site via a particular CE-PE connection. It is used to prevent routing loops (Section 7 of [RFC4364]). The Site of Origin attribute is encoded as a Route Origin Extended Community. 'ipv6-site-of-origin': Carries an IPv6 Address Specific BGP Extended Community that is used to indicate the Site of Origin for VRF information [RFC5701]. It is used to prevent routing loops. 'redistribute-connected': Controls whether the PE-CE link is advertised to other PEs. 'bgp-max-prefix': Controls the behavior when a prefix maximum is reached. 'max-prefix': Indicates the maximum number of BGP prefixes allowed in the BGP session. If the limit is reached, the action indicated in 'violate-action' will be followed. 'warning-threshold': A warning notification is triggered when this limit is reached. 'violate-action': Indicates which action to execute when the maximum number of BGP prefixes is reached. Examples of such actions include sending a warning message, discarding extra paths from the peer, or restarting the session. 'restart-timer': Indicates, in seconds, the time interval after which the BGP session will be reestablished. 'bgp-timers': Two timers can be captured in this container: (1) 'hold-time', which is the time interval that will be used for the Hold Timer (Section 4.2 of [RFC4271]) when establishing a BGP session and (2) 'keepalive', which is the time interval for the KeepaliveTimer between a PE and a BGP peer (Section 4.4 of [RFC4271]). Both timers are expressed in seconds. 'authentication': The module adheres to the recommendations in Section 13.2 of [RFC4364], as it allows enabling the TCP Authentication Option (TCP-AO) [RFC5925] and accommodates the installed base that makes use of MD5. In addition, the module includes a provision for using IPsec.-
This version of the L3NM assumes that parameters specific to the TCP-AO are preconfigured as part of the key chain that is referenced in the L3NM. No assumption is made about how such a key chain is preconfigured. However, the structure of the key chain should cover data nodes beyond those in [RFC8177], mainly SendID and RecvID (Section 3.1 of [RFC5925]).
'status': Indicates the status of the BGP routing instance.

7.6.3.3. OSPF
-
OSPF can be configured to run as a routing protocol on the 'vpn- network-access'.

Figure 17: OSPF Routing Subtree Structure
-
The following data nodes are captured in Figure 17:
'address-family': Indicates whether IPv4, IPv6, or both address families are to be activated.-
When the IPv4 or dual-stack address family is requested, it is up to the implementation (e.g., network orchestrator) to decide whether OSPFv2 [RFC4577] or OSPFv3 [RFC6565] is used to announce IPv4 routes. Such a decision will typically be reflected in the device configurations that will be derived to implement the L3VPN.
'area-id': Indicates the OSPF Area ID. 'metric': Associates a metric with OSPF routes. 'sham-links': Used to create OSPF sham links between two VPN network accesses sharing the same area and having a backdoor link (Section 4.2.7 of [RFC4577] and Section 5 of [RFC6565]). 'max-lsa': Sets the maximum number of Link State Advertisements (LSAs) that the OSPF instance will accept. 'authentication': Controls the authentication schemes to be enabled for the OSPF instance. The following options are supported: IPsec for OSPFv3 authentication [RFC4552], and the Authentication Trailer for OSPFv2 [RFC5709] [RFC7474] and OSPFv3 [RFC7166]. 'status': Indicates the status of the OSPF routing instance. -

-
As shown in Figure 19, the following RIP data nodes are supported:
'address-family': Indicates whether IPv4, IPv6, or both address families are to be activated. This parameter is used to determine whether RIPv2 [RFC2453], RIP Next Generation (RIPng), or both are to be enabled [RFC2080]. 'timers': Indicates the following timers: 'update-interval': The interval at which RIP updates are sent. 'invalid-interval': The interval before a RIP route is declared invalid. 'holddown-interval': The interval before better RIP routes are released. 'flush-interval': The interval before a route is removed from the routing table.-
These timers are expressed in seconds.
'default-metric': Sets the default RIP metric. 'authentication': Controls the authentication schemes to be enabled for the RIP instance. 'status': Indicates the status of the RIP routing instance. -
7.6.3.6. VRRP
-
The model allows enabling the Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) on the 'vpn-network-access' interface. See Figure 20.
... +--rw routing-protocols | +--rw routing-protocol* [id] | ... | +--rw vrrp | +--rw address-family* identityref | +--rw vrrp-group? uint8 | +--rw backup-peer? inet:ip-address | +--rw virtual-ip-address* inet:ip-address | +--rw priority? uint8 | +--rw ping-reply? boolean | +--rw status | +--rw admin-status | | +--rw status? identityref | | +--rw last-change? yang:date-and-time | +--ro oper-status | +--ro status? identityref | +--ro last-change? yang:date-and-time ...

'vrrp-group': Used to identify the VRRP group. 'backup-peer': Carries the IP address of the peer. 'virtual-ip-address': Includes virtual IP addresses for a single VRRP group. 'priority': Assigns the VRRP election priority for the backup virtual router. 'ping-reply': Controls whether the VRRP speaker should reply to ping requests. 'status': Indicates the status of the VRRP instance.Note that no authentication data node is included for VRRP, as there isn't any type of VRRP authentication at this time (see Section 9 of [RFC5798]).
7.6.4. OAM
-
This container (Figure 21) defines the Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM) mechanisms used for a VPN network access. In the current version of the L3NM, only BFD is supported.
... +--rw oam | +--rw bfd {vpn-common:bfd}? | +--rw session-type? identityref | +--rw desired-min-tx-interval? uint32 | +--rw required-min-rx-interval? uint32 | +--rw local-multiplier? uint8 | +--rw holdtime? uint32 | +--rw profile? leafref | +--rw authentication! | | +--rw key-chain? key-chain:key-chain-ref | | +--rw meticulous? boolean | +--rw status | +--rw admin-status | | +--rw status? identityref | | +--rw last-change? yang:date-and-time | +--ro oper-status | +--ro status? identityref | +--ro last-change? yang:date-and-time ...
Figure 21: IP Connection Subtree Structure (OAM)
-
The following OAM data nodes can be specified:
'session-type': Indicates which BFD flavor is used to set up the session (e.g., classic BFD [RFC5880], Seamless BFD [RFC7880]). By default, it is assumed that the BFD session will follow the behavior specified in [RFC5880]. 'desired-min-tx-interval': The minimum interval, in microseconds, that a PE would like to use when transmitting BFD Control packets, less any jitter applied. 'required-min-rx-interval': The minimum interval, in microseconds, between received BFD Control packets that a PE is capable of supporting, less any jitter applied by the sender. 'local-multiplier': The negotiated transmit interval, multiplied by this value, provides the detection time for the peer. 'holdtime': Used to indicate the expected BFD holddown time, in milliseconds. This value may be inherited from the service request (see Section 6.3.2.2.2 of [RFC8299]). 'profile': Refers to a BFD profile (Section 7.2). Such a profile can be set by the provider or inherited from the service request (see Section 6.3.2.2.2 of [RFC8299]). 'authentication': Includes the required information to enable the BFD authentication modes discussed in Section 6.7 of [RFC5880]. In particular, 'meticulous' controls the activation of meticulous mode as discussed in Sections 6.7.3 and 6.7.4 of [RFC5880]. 'status': Indicates the status of BFD.
7.6.5. Security
-
The 'security' container specifies the authentication and the encryption to be applied to traffic for a given VPN network access. As depicted in the subtree shown in Figure 22, the L3NM can be used to directly control the encryption to be applied (e.g., Layer 2 or Layer 3 encryption) or invoke a local encryption profile.

7.6.6. Services
7.6.6.1. Overview
-
The 'service' container specifies the service parameters to apply for a given VPN network access (Figure 23).

Figure 23: Services Subtree Structure
-
The following data nodes are defined:
'pe-to-ce-bandwidth': Indicates, in bits per second (bps), the inbound bandwidth of the connection (i.e., the download bandwidth from the service provider to the site). 'ce-to-pe-bandwidth': Indicates, in bps, the outbound bandwidth of the connection (i.e., the upload bandwidth from the site to the service provider). 'mtu': Indicates the MTU at the service level. 'qos': Used to define a set of QoS policies to apply on a given connection (refer to Section 7.6.6.2 for more details). 'carriers-carrier': Groups a set of parameters that are used when Carriers' Carriers (CsC) is enabled, such as using BGP for signaling purposes [RFC8277]. 'ntp': Time synchronization may be needed in some VPNs, such as infrastructure and management VPNs. This container is used to enable the NTP service [RFC5905]. 'multicast': Specifies the multicast mode and other data nodes, such as the address family. Refer to Section 7.7.
7.6.6.2. QoS
-
The 'qos' container is used to define a set of QoS policies to apply on a given connection (Figure 24). A QoS policy may be a classification or an action policy. For example, a QoS action can be defined to rate-limit inbound/outbound traffic of a given class of service.
... +--rw qos {vpn-common:qos}? | +--rw qos-classification-policy | | +--rw rule* [id] | | +--rw id string | | +--rw (match-type)? | | | +--:(match-flow) | | | | +--rw (l3)? | | | | | +--:(ipv4) | | | | | | ... | | | | | +--:(ipv6) | | | | | ... | | | | +--rw (l4)? | | | | +--:(tcp) | | | | | ... | | | | +--:(udp) | | | | ... | | | +--:(match-application) | | | +--rw match-application? | | | identityref | | +--rw target-class-id? string | +--rw qos-action | | +--rw rule* [id] | | +--rw id string | | +--rw target-class-id? string | | +--rw inbound-rate-limit? decimal64 | | +--rw outbound-rate-limit? decimal64 | +--rw qos-profile | +--rw qos-profile* [profile] | +--rw profile leafref | +--rw direction? identityref ...

Figure 25: QoS Subtree Structure (L3)
-
Layer 4: As discussed in [RFC9181], any Layer 4 protocol can be indicated in the 'protocol' data node under 'l3' (Figure 25), but only TCP- and UDP-specific match criteria are elaborated in this version, as these protocols are widely used in the context of VPN services. Augmentations can be considered in the future to add other Layer-4-specific data nodes, if needed.
-
TCP- or UDP-related match criteria can be specified in the L3NM, as shown in Figure 26.
As discussed in [RFC9181], some transport protocols use existing protocols (e.g., TCP or UDP) as the substrate. The match criteria for such protocols may rely upon the 'protocol' setting under 'l3', TCP/UDP match criteria as shown in Figure 26, part of the TCP/UDP payload, or a combination thereof. This version of the module does not support such advanced match criteria. Future revisions of the VPN common module or augmentations to the L3NM may consider adding match criteria based on the transport protocol payload (e.g., by means of a bitmask match).

7.7. Multicast
-
Multicast may be enabled for a particular VPN at the VPN node and VPN network access levels (see Figure 27). Some data nodes (e.g., max- groups (Figure 28)) can be controlled at various levels: VPN service, VPN node level, or VPN network access.

The model supports a single type of tree per VPN access ('tree- flavor'): Any-Source Multicast (ASM), Source-Specific Multicast (SSM), or bidirectional.
When ASM is used, the model supports the configuration of Rendezvous Points (RPs). RP discovery may be 'static', 'bsr-rp', or 'auto-rp'. When set to 'static', RP-to-multicast-group mappings MUST be configured as part of the 'rp-group-mappings' container. The RP MAY be a provider node or a customer node. When the RP is a customer node, the RP address must be configured using the 'rp-address' leaf.
The model supports RP redundancy through the 'rp-redundancy' leaf. How the redundancy is achieved is out of scope.
When a particular VPN using ASM requires traffic delivery that is more optimal (e.g., requested per the guidance in [RFC8299]), 'optimal-traffic-delivery' can be set. When set to 'true', the implementation must use any mechanism to provide traffic delivery that is more optimal for the customer. For example, anycast is one of the mechanisms for enhancing RP redundancy, providing resilience against failures, and recovering from failures quickly.
When configuring multicast-related parameters at the VPN node level (Figure 29), the same structure as the structure depicted in Figure 30 is used. When defined at the VPN node level, Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) parameters [RFC1112] [RFC2236] [RFC3376], Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) parameters [RFC2710] [RFC3810], and Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) parameters [RFC7761] are applicable to all VPN network accesses of that VPN node unless corresponding nodes are overridden at the VPN network access level.

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) and delete operations to these data nodes without proper protection or authentication can have a negative effect on network operations. These are the subtrees and data nodes and their sensitivity/ vulnerability in the "ietf-l3vpn-ntw" module:
'vpn-profiles': This container includes a set of sensitive data that influence how the L3VPN service is delivered. For example, an attacker who has access to these data nodes may be able to manipulate routing policies, QoS policies, or encryption properties. These data nodes are defined with "nacm:default-deny- write" tagging [RFC9181]. 'vpn-services': An attacker who is able to access network nodes can undertake various attacks, such as deleting a running L3VPN service, interrupting all the traffic of a client. In addition, an attacker may modify the attributes of a running service (e.g., QoS, bandwidth, routing protocols, keying material), leading to malfunctioning of the service and therefore to Service Level Agreement (SLA) violations. In addition, an attacker could attempt to create an L3VPN service or add a new network access. In addition to using NACM to prevent unauthorized access, such activity can be detected by adequately monitoring and tracking network configuration changes.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:
'customer-name' and 'ip-connection': An attacker can retrieve privacy-related information, which can be used to track a customer. Disclosing such information may be considered a violation of the customer-provider trust relationship. 'keying-material': An attacker can retrieve the cryptographic keys protecting the underlying VPN service (CE-PE routing, in particular). These keys could be used to inject spoofed routing advertisements.Several data nodes ('bgp', 'ospf', 'isis', 'rip', and 'bfd') rely upon [RFC8177] for authentication purposes. Therefore, this module inherits the security considerations discussed in Section 5 of [RFC8177]. Also, these data nodes support supplying explicit keys as strings in ASCII format. The use of keys in hexadecimal string format would afford greater key entropy with the same number of key- string octets. However, such a format is not included in this version of the L3NM, because it is not supported by the underlying device modules (e.g., [RFC8695]).
As discussed in Section 7.6.3, the module supports MD5 to basically accommodate the installed BGP base. MD5 suffers from the security weaknesses discussed in Section 2 of [RFC6151] and Section 2.1 of [RFC6952].
[RFC8633] describes best current practices to be considered in VPNs making use of NTP. Moreover, a mechanism to provide cryptographic security for NTP is specified in [RFC8915].

Appendix A. L3VPN Examples
A.1. 4G VPN Provisioning Example
-
L3VPNs are widely used to deploy 3G/4G, fixed, and enterprise services, mainly because several traffic discrimination policies can be applied within the network to deliver to the mobile customers a service that meets the SLA requirements.
Typically, and as shown in Figure 31, an eNodeB (CE) is directly connected to the access routers of the mobile backhaul and their logical interfaces (one or many, according to the service type) are configured in a VPN that transports the packets to the mobile core platforms. In this example, a 'vpn-node' is created with two 'vpn- network-accesses'.
+-------------+ +------------------+ | | | PE | | | | 198.51.100.1 | | eNodeB |>--------/------->|........... | | | vlan 1 | | | | |>--------/------->|...... | | | | vlan 2 | | | | | | Direct | +-------------+ | +-------------+ Routing | | vpn-node-id | | | | 44 | | | +-------------+ | | | +------------------+
Figure 31: Mobile Backhaul Example
-
To create an L3VPN service using the L3NM, the following steps can be followed.
First, create the 4G VPN service (Figure 32).
POST: /restconf/data/ietf-l3vpn-ntw:l3vpn-ntw/vpn-services Host: example.com Content-Type: application/yang-data+json { "ietf-l3vpn-ntw:vpn-services": { "vpn-service": [ { "vpn-id": "4G", "vpn-description": "VPN to deploy 4G services", "customer-name": "mycustomer", "vpn-service-topology": "custom", "vpn-instance-profiles": { "vpn-instance-profile": [ { "profile-id": "simple-profile", "local-as": 65550, "rd": "0:65550:1", "address-family": [ { "address-family": "ietf-vpn-common:dual-stack", "vpn-targets": { "vpn-target": [ { "id": 1, "route-targets": [ { "route-target": "0:65550:1" } ], "route-target-type": "both" } ] } } ] } ] } } ] } }
Figure 32: Create VPN Service
-
Second, create a VPN node, as depicted in Figure 33. In this type of service, the VPN node is equivalent to VRF configured in the physical device ('ne-id'=198.51.100.1). NOTE: '\' line wrapping in Figures 33 and 34 is implemented per [RFC8792].
POST: /restconf/data/ietf-l3vpn-ntw:l3vpn-ntw/\ vpn-services/vpn-service=4G Host: example.com Content-Type: application/yang-data+json { "ietf-l3vpn-ntw:vpn-nodes": { "vpn-node": [ { "vpn-node-id": "44", "ne-id": "198.51.100.1", "active-vpn-instance-profiles": { "vpn-instance-profile": [ { "profile-id": "simple-profile" } ] } } ] } }
Figure 33: Create VPN Node
-
Finally, two VPN network accesses are created using the same physical port ('interface-id'=1/1/1). Each 'vpn-network-access' has a particular VLAN interface (1,2): "SYNC" and "DATA" (Figure 34). These interfaces differentiate the traffic between them.
POST: /restconf/data/ietf-l3vpn-ntw:l3vpn-ntw/\ vpn-services/vpn-service=4G/vpn-nodes/vpn-node=44 content-type: application/yang-data+json { "ietf-l3vpn-ntw:vpn-network-accesses": { "vpn-network-access": [ { "id": "1/1/1.1", "interface-id": "1/1/1", "description": "Interface SYNC to eNODE-B", "vpn-network-access-type": "ietf-vpn-common:point-to-point", "vpn-instance-profile": "simple-profile", "status": { "admin-status": { "status": "ietf-vpn-common:admin-up" } }, "connection": { "encapsulation": { "type": "ietf-vpn-common:dot1q", "dot1q": { "cvlan-id": 1 } } }, "ip-connection": { "ipv4": { "local-address": "192.0.2.1", "prefix-length": 30, "address-allocation-type": "static-address", "static-addresses": { "primary-address": "1", "address": [ { "address-id": "1", "customer-address": "192.0.2.2" } ] } }, "ipv6": { "local-address": "2001:db8::1", "prefix-length": 64, "address-allocation-type": "static-address", "primary-address": "1", "address": [ { "address-id": "1", "customer-address": "2001:db8::2" } ] } }, "routing-protocols": { "routing-protocol": [ { "id": "1", "type": "ietf-vpn-common:direct" } ] } }, { "id": "1/1/1.2", "interface-id": "1/1/1", "description": "Interface DATA to eNODE-B", "vpn-network-access-type": "ietf-vpn-common:point-to-point", "vpn-instance-profile": "simple-profile", "status": { "admin-status": { "status": "ietf-vpn-common:admin-up" } }, "connection": { "encapsulation": { "type": "ietf-vpn-common:dot1q", "dot1q": { "cvlan-id": 2 } } }, "ip-connection": { "ipv4": { "local-address": "192.0.2.1", "prefix-length": 30, "address-allocation-type": "static-address", "static-addresses": { "primary-address": "1", "address": [ { "address-id": "1", "customer-address": "192.0.2.2" } ] } }, "ipv6": { "local-address": "2001:db8::1", "prefix-length": 64, "address-allocation-type": "static-address", "primary-address": "1", "address": [ { "address-id": "1", "customer-address": "2001:db8::2" } ] } }, "routing-protocols": { "routing-protocol": [ { "id": "1", "type": "ietf-vpn-common:direct" } ] } } ] } }

A.3. Overriding VPN Instance Profile Parameters
-
Figure 36 shows a simplified example to illustrate how some information that is provided at the VPN service level (particularly as part of the 'vpn-instance-profiles') can be overridden by information configured at the VPN node level. In this example, PE3 and PE4 inherit the 'vpn-instance-profiles' parameters that are specified at the VPN service level, but PE1 and PE2 are provided with "maximum-routes" values at the VPN node level that override the values that are specified at the VPN service level.
{ "ietf-l3vpn-ntw:vpn-services": { "vpn-service": [ { "vpn-id": "override-example", "vpn-service-topology": "ietf-vpn-common:hub-spoke", "vpn-instance-profiles": { "vpn-instance-profile": [ { "profile-id": "HUB", "role": "ietf-vpn-common:hub-role", "local-as": 64510, "rd-suffix": 1001, "address-family": [ { "address-family": "ietf-vpn-common:dual-stack", "maximum-routes": [ { "protocol": "ietf-vpn-common:any", "maximum-routes": 100 } ] } ] }, { "profile-id": "SPOKE", "role": "ietf-vpn-common:spoke-role", "local-as": 64510, "address-family": [ { "address-family": "ietf-vpn-common:dual-stack", "maximum-routes": [ { "protocol": "ietf-vpn-common:any", "maximum-routes": 1000 } ] } ] } ] }, "vpn-nodes": { "vpn-node": [ { "vpn-node-id": "PE1", "ne-id": "pe1", "router-id": "198.51.100.1", "active-vpn-instance-profiles": { "vpn-instance-profile": [ { "profile-id": "HUB", "rd": "1:198.51.100.1:1001", "address-family": [ { "address-family": "ietf-vpn-common:dual-stack", "maximum-routes": [ { "protocol": "ietf-vpn-common:any", "maximum-routes": 10 } ] } ] } ] } }, { "vpn-node-id": "PE2", "ne-id": "pe2", "router-id": "198.51.100.2", "active-vpn-instance-profiles": { "vpn-instance-profile": [ { "profile-id": "SPOKE", "address-family": [ { "address-family": "ietf-vpn-common:dual-stack", "maximum-routes": [ { "protocol": "ietf-vpn-common:any", "maximum-routes": 100 } ] } ] } ] } }, { "vpn-node-id": "PE3", "ne-id": "pe3", "router-id": "198.51.100.3", "active-vpn-instance-profiles": { "vpn-instance-profile": [ { "profile-id": "SPOKE" } ] } }, { "vpn-node-id": "PE4", "ne-id": "pe4", "router-id": "198.51.100.4", "active-vpn-instance-profiles": { "vpn-instance-profile": [ { "profile-id": "SPOKE" } ] } } ] } } ] } }

A.4. Multicast VPN Provisioning Example
-
IPTV is mainly distributed through multicast over the LANs. In the following example, PIM - Sparse Mode (PIM-SM) is enabled and functional between the PE and the CE. The PE receives multicast traffic from a CE that is directly connected to the multicast source. The signaling between the PE and the CE is achieved using BGP. Also, the RP is statically configured for a multicast group.
+-----------+ +------+ +------+ +-----------+ | Multicast |---| CE |--/--| PE |----| Backbone | | source | +------+ +------+ | IP/MPLS | +-----------+ +-----------+
Figure 37: Multicast L3VPN Service Example
-
Figure 38 illustrates how to configure a multicast L3VPN service using the L3NM.
First, the multicast service is created together with a generic VPN instance profile (see the excerpt of the request message body shown in Figure 38).
{ "ietf-l3vpn-ntw:vpn-services": { "vpn-service": [ { "vpn-id": "Multicast-IPTV", "vpn-description": "Multicast IPTV VPN service", "customer-name": "a-name", "vpn-service-topology": "ietf-vpn-common:hub-spoke", "vpn-instance-profiles": { "vpn-instance-profile": [ { "profile-id": "multicast", "role": "ietf-vpn-common:hub-role", "local-as": 65536, "multicast": { "rp": { "rp-group-mappings": { "rp-group-mapping": [ { "id": 1, "rp-address": "203.0.113.17", "groups": { "group": [ { "id": 1, "group-address": "239.130.0.0/15" } ] } } ] }, "rp-discovery": { "rp-discovery-type": "ietf-vpn-common:static-rp" } } } } ] } } ] } }-
Figure 38: Create Multicast VPN Service (Excerpt of the Message
-
Request Body)
-
Then, the VPN nodes are created (see the excerpt of the request message body shown in Figure 39). In this example, the VPN node will represent VRF configured in the physical device.
{ "ietf-l3vpn-ntw:vpn-node": [ { "vpn-node-id": "500003105", "description": "VRF-IPTV-MULTICAST", "ne-id": "198.51.100.10", "router-id": "198.51.100.10", "active-vpn-instance-profiles": { "vpn-instance-profile": [ { "profile-id": "multicast", "rd": "65536:31050202" } ] } } ] }

Request Body)

Finally, create the VPN network access with multicast enabled (see the excerpt of the request message body shown in Figure 40).
{ "ietf-l3vpn-ntw:vpn-network-access": { "id": "1/1/1", "description": "Connected-to-source", "vpn-network-access-type": "ietf-vpn-common:point-to-point", "vpn-instance-profile": "multicast", "status": { "admin-status": { "status": "ietf-vpn-common:admin-up" }, "ip-connection": { "ipv4": { "local-address": "203.0.113.1", "prefix-length": 30, "address-allocation-type": "static-address", "static-addresses": { "primary-address": "1", "address": [ { "address-id": "1", "customer-address": "203.0.113.2" } ] } } }, "routing-protocols": { "routing-protocol": [ { "id": "1", "type": "ietf-vpn-common:bgp-routing", "bgp": { "description": "Connected to CE", "peer-as": "65537", "address-family": "ietf-vpn-common:ipv4", "neighbor": "203.0.113.2" } } ] }, "service": { "pe-to-ce-bandwidth": "100000000", "ce-to-pe-bandwidth": "100000000", "mtu": 1500, "multicast": { "access-type": "source-only", "address-family": "ietf-vpn-common:ipv4", "protocol-type": "router", "pim": { "hello-interval": 30, "status": { "admin-status": { "status": "ietf-vpn-common:admin-up" } } } } } } } }
