Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) S. Litkowski Request for Comments: 8049 Orange Business Services Category: Standards Track L. Tomotaki ISSN: 2070-1721 Verizon K. Ogaki KDDI Corporation February 2017 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery Abstract This document defines a YANG data model that can be used for communication between customers and network operators and to deliver a Layer 3 provider-provisioned VPN service. This document is limited to BGP PE-based VPNs as described in RFCs 4026, 4110, and 4364. This model is intended to be instantiated at the management system to deliver the overall service. It is not a configuration model to be used directly on network elements. This model provides an abstracted view of the Layer 3 IP VPN service configuration components. It will be up to the management system to take this model as input and use specific configuration models to configure the different network elements to deliver the service. How the configuration of network elements is done is out of scope for this document. Status of This Memo This is an Internet Standards Track document.

Introduction This document defines a Layer 3 VPN service data model written in YANG. The model defines service configuration elements that can be used in communication protocols between customers and network operators. Those elements can also be used as input to automated control and configuration applications. 1.1. Terminology The following terms are defined in [RFC6241] and are not redefined here: o client o configuration data o server o state data The following terms are defined in [RFC7950] and are not redefined here: o augment o data model o data node Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 4] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 The terminology for describing YANG data models is found in [RFC7950]. This document presents some configuration examples using XML representation. 1.2. Requirements Language The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119]. 1.3. Tree Diagrams A simplified graphical representation of the data model is presented in Section 6. The meanings of the symbols in these diagrams are as follows: o Brackets "[" and "]" enclose list keys. o Curly braces "{" and "}" contain names of optional features that make the corresponding node conditional. o Abbreviations before data node names: "rw" means configuration data (read-write), and "ro" means state data (read-only). o Symbols after data node names: "?" means an optional node, and "*" denotes a "list" or "leaf-list". o Parentheses enclose choice and case nodes, and case nodes are also marked with a colon (":"). o Ellipsis ("...") stands for contents of subtrees that are not shown. 2.

Definitions Customer Edge (CE) Device: A CE is equipment dedicated to a particular customer; it is directly connected (at Layer 3) to one or more PE devices via attachment circuits. A CE is usually located at the customer premises and is usually dedicated to a single VPN, although it may support multiple VPNs if each one has separate attachment circuits. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 7] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 Provider Edge (PE) Device: A PE is equipment managed by the SP; it can support multiple VPNs for different customers and is directly connected (at Layer 3) to one or more CE devices via attachment circuits. A PE is usually located at an SP point of presence (POP) and is managed by the SP. PE-Based VPNs: The PE devices know that certain traffic is VPN traffic. They forward the traffic (through tunnels) based on the destination IP address of the packet and, optionally, based on other information in the IP header of the packet. The PE devices are themselves the tunnel endpoints. The tunnels may make use of various encapsulations to send traffic over the SP network (such as, but not restricted to, GRE, IP-in-IP, IPsec, or MPLS tunnels). 4. Layer 3 IP VPN Service Model A Layer 3 IP VPN service is a collection of sites that are authorized to exchange traffic between each other over a shared IP infrastructure. This Layer 3 VPN service model aims at providing a common understanding of how the corresponding IP VPN service is to be deployed over the shared infrastructure. This service model is limited to BGP PE-based VPNs as described in [RFC4026], [RFC4110], and [RFC4364]. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 8] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 5. Service Data Model Usage l3vpn-svc | Model | | +------------------+ +-----+ | Orchestration | < --- > | OSS | +------------------+ +-----+ | | +----------------+ | | Config manager | | +----------------+ | | | | NETCONF/CLI ... | | +------------------------------------------------+ Network +++++++ + AAA + +++++++ ++++++++ Bearer ++++++++ ++++++++ ++++++++ + CE A + ----------- + PE A + + PE B + ---- + CE B + ++++++++ Connection ++++++++ ++++++++ ++++++++ Site A Site B The idea of the L3 IP VPN service model is to propose an abstracted interface between customers and network operators to manage configuration of components of an L3VPN service. A typical scenario would be to use this model as an input for an orchestration layer that will be responsible for translating it to an orchestrated configuration of network elements that will be part of the service. The network elements can be routers but can also be servers (like AAA); the network's configuration is not limited to these examples. The configuration of network elements can be done via the CLI, NETCONF/RESTCONF [RFC6241] [RFC8040] coupled with YANG data models of a specific configuration (BGP, VRF, BFD, etc.), or some other technique, as preferred by the operator. The usage of this service model is not limited to this example; it can be used by any component of the management system but not directly by network elements. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 9] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 6. Design of the Data Model The YANG module is divided into two main containers: "vpn-services" and "sites". The "vpn-service" list under the vpn-services container defines global parameters for the VPN service for a specific customer. A "site" is composed of at least one "site-network-access" and, in the case of multihoming, may have multiple site-network-access points. The site-network-access attachment is done through a "bearer" with an "ip-connection" on top. The bearer refers to properties of the attachment that are below Layer 3, while the connection refers to properties oriented to the Layer 3 protocol. The bearer may be allocated dynamically by the SP, and the customer may provide some constraints or parameters to drive the placement of the access. Authorization of traffic exchange is done through what we call a VPN policy or VPN service topology defining routing exchange rules between sites. The figure below describes the overall structure of the YANG module: module: ietf-l3vpn-svc +--rw l3vpn-svc +--rw vpn-services | +--rw vpn-service* [vpn-id] | +--rw vpn-id svc-id | +--rw customer-name? string | +--rw vpn-service-topology? identityref | +--rw cloud-accesses {cloud-access}? | | +--rw cloud-access* [cloud-identifier] | | +--rw cloud-identifier string | | +--rw (list-flavor)? | | | +--:(permit-any) | | | | +--rw permit-any? empty | | | +--:(deny-any-except) | | | | +--rw permit-site* leafref | | | +--:(permit-any-except) | | | +--rw deny-site* leafref | | +--rw authorized-sites | | | +--rw authorized-site* [site-id] | | | +--rw site-id leafref | | +--rw denied-sites | | | +--rw denied-site* [site-id] | | | +--rw site-id leafref | | +--rw address-translation Litkowski, et al.

Standards Track [Page 17] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 6.1. Features and Augmentation The model defined in this document implements many features that allow implementations to be modular. As an example, an implementation may support only IPv4 VPNs (IPv4 feature), IPv6 VPNs (IPv6 feature), or both (by advertising both features). The routing protocols proposed to the customer may also be enabled through features. This model also proposes some features for options that are more advanced, such as support for extranet VPNs (Section 6.2.4), site diversity (Section 6.6), and QoS (Section 6.12.2). In addition, as for any YANG model, this service model can be augmented to implement new behaviors or specific features. For example, this model proposes different options for IP address assignments; if those options do not fulfill all requirements, new options can be added through augmentation. 6.2. VPN Service Overview A vpn-service list item contains generic information about the VPN service. The "vpn-id" provided in the vpn-service list refers to an internal reference for this VPN service, while the customer name refers to a more-explicit reference to the customer. This identifier is purely internal to the organization responsible for the VPN service. 6.2.1. VPN Service Topology The type of VPN service topology is required for configuration. Our proposed model supports any-to-any, Hub and Spoke (where Hubs can exchange traffic), and "Hub and Spoke disjoint" (where Hubs cannot exchange traffic). New topologies could be added via augmentation. By default, the any-to-any VPN service topology is used. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 18] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 6.2.1.1. Route Target Allocation A Layer 3 PE-based VPN is built using route targets (RTs) as described in [RFC4364]. The management system is expected to automatically allocate a set of RTs upon receiving a VPN service creation request. How the management system allocates RTs is out of scope for this document, but multiple ways could be envisaged, as described below. Management system <-------------------------------------------------> Request RT +-----------------------+ Topo a2a +----------+ RESTCONF | | -----> | | User ------------- | Service Orchestration | | Network | l3vpn-svc | | <----- | OSS | Model +-----------------------+ Response +----------+ RT1, RT2 In the example above, a service orchestration, owning the instantiation of this service model, requests RTs to the network OSS. Based on the requested VPN service topology, the network OSS replies with one or multiple RTs. The interface between this service orchestration and the network OSS is out of scope for this document. +---------------------------+ RESTCONF | | User ------------- | Service Orchestration | l3vpn-svc | | Model | | | RT pool: 10:1->10:10000 | | RT pool: 20:50->20:5000 | +---------------------------+ In the example above, a service orchestration, owning the instantiation of this service model, owns one or more pools of RTs (specified by the SP) that can be allocated. Based on the requested VPN service topology, it will allocate one or multiple RTs from the pool. The mechanisms shown above are just examples and should not be considered an exhaustive list of solutions. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 19] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 6.2.1.2. Any-to-Any +------------------------------------------------------------+ | VPN1_Site1 ------ PE1 PE2 ------ VPN1_Site2 | | | | VPN1_Site3 ------ PE3 PE4 ------ VPN1_Site4 | +------------------------------------------------------------+ Any-to-Any VPN Service Topology In the any-to-any VPN service topology, all VPN sites can communicate with each other without any restrictions. The management system that receives an any-to-any IP VPN service request through this model is expected to assign and then configure the VRF and RTs on the appropriate PEs. In the any-to-any case, a single RT is generally required, and every VRF imports and exports this RT. 6.2.1.3. Hub and Spoke +-------------------------------------------------------------+ | Hub_Site1 ------ PE1 PE2 ------ Spoke_Site1 | | +----------------------------------+ | | | +----------------------------------+ | Hub_Site2 ------ PE3 PE4 ------ Spoke_Site2 | +-------------------------------------------------------------+ Hub-and-Spoke VPN Service Topology In the Hub-and-Spoke VPN service topology, all Spoke sites can communicate only with Hub sites but not with each other, and Hubs can also communicate with each other. The management system that owns an any-to-any IP VPN service request through this model is expected to assign and then configure the VRF and RTs on the appropriate PEs. In the Hub-and-Spoke case, two RTs are generally required (one RT for Hub routes and one RT for Spoke routes). A Hub VRF that connects Hub sites will export Hub routes with the Hub RT and will import Spoke routes through the Spoke RT. It will also import the Hub RT to allow Hub-to-Hub communication. A Spoke VRF that connects Spoke sites will export Spoke routes with the Spoke RT and will import Hub routes through the Hub RT. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 20] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 The management system MUST take into account constraints on Hub-and- Spoke connections. For example, if a management system decides to mesh a Spoke site and a Hub site on the same PE, it needs to mesh connections in different VRFs, as shown in the figure below. Hub_Site ------- (VRF_Hub) PE1 (VRF_Spoke) / | Spoke_Site1 -------------------+ | | Spoke_Site2 -----------------------+ 6.2.1.4. Hub and Spoke Disjoint +-------------------------------------------------------------+ | Hub_Site1 ------ PE1 PE2 ------ Spoke_Site1 | +--------------------------+ +-------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------+ +-------------------------------+ | Hub_Site2 ------ PE3 PE4 ------ Spoke_Site2 | +-------------------------------------------------------------+ Hub and Spoke Disjoint VPN Service Topology In the Hub and Spoke disjoint VPN service topology, all Spoke sites can communicate only with Hub sites but not with each other, and Hubs cannot communicate with each other. The management system that owns an any-to-any IP VPN service request through this model is expected to assign and then configure the VRF and RTs on the appropriate PEs. In the Hub-and-Spoke case, two RTs are required (one RT for Hub routes and one RT for Spoke routes). A Hub VRF that connects Hub sites will export Hub routes with the Hub RT and will import Spoke routes through the Spoke RT. A Spoke VRF that connects Spoke sites will export Spoke routes with the Spoke RT and will import Hub routes through the Hub RT. The management system MUST take into account constraints on Hub-and- Spoke connections, as in the previous case. Hub and Spoke disjoint can also be seen as multiple Hub-and-Spoke VPNs (one per Hub) that share a common set of Spoke sites. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 21] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 6.2.2. Cloud Access The proposed model provides cloud access configuration via the "cloud-accesses" container. The usage of cloud-access is targeted for the public cloud. An Internet access can also be considered a public cloud access service. The cloud-accesses container provides parameters for network address translation and authorization rules. A private cloud access may be addressed through NNIs, as described in Section 6.15. A cloud identifier is used to reference the target service. This identifier is local to each administration. The model allows for source address translation before accessing the cloud. IPv4-to-IPv4 address translation (NAT44) is the only supported option, but other options can be added through augmentation. If IP source address translation is required to access the cloud, the "enabled" leaf MUST be set to true in the "nat44" container. An IP address may be provided in the "customer-address" leaf if the customer is providing the IP address to be used for the cloud access. If the SP is providing this address, "customer-address" is not necessary, as it can be picked from a pool of SPs. By default, all sites in the IP VPN MUST be authorized to access the cloud. If restrictions are required, a user MAY configure the "permit-site" or "deny-site" leaf-list. The permit-site leaf-list defines the list of sites authorized for cloud access. The deny-site leaf-list defines the list of sites denied for cloud access. The model supports both "deny-any-except" and "permit-any-except" authorization. How the restrictions will be configured on network elements is out of scope for this document. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 22] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 IP VPN ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ++++++++++++ + Site 3 + --- + Cloud 1 + + Site 1 + ++++++++++++ + + + Site 2 + --- ++++++++++++ + + + Internet + + Site 4 + ++++++++++++ ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ | +++++++++++ + Cloud 2 + +++++++++++ In the example above, we configure the global VPN to access the Internet by creating a cloud-access pointing to the cloud identifier for the Internet service. No authorized sites will be configured, as all sites are required to access the Internet. The "address-translation/nat44/enabled" leaf will be set to true. 123456487 INTERNET true Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 23] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 If Site 1 and Site 2 require access to Cloud 1, a new cloud-access pointing to the cloud identifier of Cloud 1 will be created. The permit-site leaf-list will be filled with a reference to Site 1 and Site 2. 123456487 Cloud1 site1 site2 If all sites except Site 1 require access to Cloud 2, a new cloud-access pointing to the cloud identifier of Cloud 2 will be created. The deny-site leaf-list will be filled with a reference to Site 1. 123456487 Cloud2 site1 6.2.3. Multicast Service Multicast in IP VPNs is described in [RFC6513]. If multicast support is required for an IP VPN, some global multicast parameters are required as input for the service request. Users of this model will need to provide the flavors of trees that will be used by customers within the IP VPN (customer tree). The proposed model supports bidirectional, shared, and source-based trees (and can be augmented). Multiple flavors of trees can be supported simultaneously. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 24] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 Operator network ______________ / \ | | (SSM tree) | Recv (IGMPv3) -- Site2 ------- PE2 | | PE1 --- Site1 --- Source1 | | \ | | -- Source2 | | (ASM tree) | Recv (IGMPv2) -- Site3 ------- PE3 | | | (SSM tree) | Recv (IGMPv3) -- Site4 ------- PE4 | | / | Recv (IGMPv2) -- Site5 -------- | (ASM tree) | | | \_______________/ When an ASM flavor is requested, this model requires that the "rp" and "rp-discovery" parameters be filled. Multiple RP-to-group mappings can be created using the "rp-group-mappings" container. For each mapping, the SP can manage the RP service by setting the "provider-managed/enabled" leaf to true. In the case of a provider- managed RP, the user can request RP redundancy and/or optimal traffic delivery. Those parameters will help the SP select the appropriate technology or architecture to fulfill the customer service requirement: for instance, in the case of a request for optimal traffic delivery, an SP may use Anycast-RP or RP-tree-to-SPT switchover architectures. In the case of a customer-managed RP, the RP address must be filled in the RP-to-group mappings using the "rp-address" leaf. This leaf is not needed for a provider-managed RP. Users can define a specific mechanism for RP discovery, such as the "auto-rp", "static-rp", or "bsr-rp" modes. By default, the model uses "static-rp" if ASM is requested. A single rp-discovery mechanism is allowed for the VPN. The "rp-discovery" container can be used for both provider-managed and customer-managed RPs. In the case of a provider-managed RP, if the user wants to use "bsr-rp" as a discovery protocol, an SP should consider the provider-managed "rp-group-mappings" for the "bsr-rp" configuration. The SP will then configure its selected RPs to be "bsr-rp-candidates". In the case of a customer-managed RP and a "bsr-rp" discovery mechanism, the "rp-address" provided will be the bsr-rp candidate. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 25] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 6.2.4. Extranet VPNs There are some cases where a particular VPN needs access to resources (servers, hosts, etc.) that are external. Those resources may be located in another VPN. +-----------+ +-----------+ / \ / \ Site A -- | VPN A | --- | VPN B | --- Site B \ / \ / (Shared +-----------+ +-----------+ resources) In the figure above, VPN B has some resources on Site B that need to be available to some customers/partners. VPN A must be able to access those VPN B resources. Such a VPN connection scenario can be achieved via a VPN policy as defined in Section 6.5.2.2. But there are some simple cases where a particular VPN (VPN A) needs access to all resources in another VPN (VPN B). The model provides an easy way to set up this connection using the "extranet-vpns" container. The extranet-vpns container defines a list of VPNs a particular VPN wants to access. The extranet-vpns container must be used on customer VPNs accessing extranet resources in another VPN. In the figure above, in order to provide VPN A with access to VPN B, the extranet-vpns container needs to be configured under VPN A with an entry corresponding to VPN B. There is no service configuration requirement on VPN B. Readers should note that even if there is no configuration requirement on VPN B, if VPN A lists VPN B as an extranet, all sites in VPN B will gain access to all sites in VPN A. The "site-role" leaf defines the role of the local VPN sites in the target extranet VPN service topology. Site roles are defined in Section 6.4. Based on this, the requirements described in Section 6.4 regarding the site-role leaf are also applicable here. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 26] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 In the example below, VPN A accesses VPN B resources through an extranet connection. A Spoke role is required for VPN A sites, as sites from VPN A must not be able to communicate with each other through the extranet VPN connection. VPNB hub-spoke VPNA any-to-any VPNB spoke-role This model does not define how the extranet configuration will be achieved. Any VPN interconnection scenario that is more complex (e.g., only certain parts of sites on VPN A accessing only certain parts of sites on VPN B) needs to be achieved using a VPN attachment as defined in Section 6.5.2, and especially a VPN policy as defined in Section 6.5.2.2. 6.3. Site Overview A site represents a connection of a customer office to one or more VPN services. +-------------+ / \ +------------------+ +-----| VPN1 | | | | \ / | New York Office |------ (site) -----+ +-------------+ | | | +-------------+ +------------------+ | / \ +-----| VPN2 | \ / +-------------+ Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 27] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 A site has several characteristics: o Unique identifier (site-id): uniquely identifies the site within the overall network infrastructure. The identifier is a string that allows any encoding for the local administration of the VPN service. o Locations (locations): site location information that allows easy retrieval of information from the nearest available resources. A site may be composed of multiple locations. o Devices (devices): allows the customer to request one or more customer premises equipment entities from the SP for a particular site. o Management (management): defines the type of management for the site -- for example, co-managed, customer-managed, or provider- managed. See Section 6.10. o Site network accesses (site-network-accesses): defines the list of network accesses associated with the sites, and their properties -- especially bearer, connection, and service parameters. A site-network-access represents an IP logical connection of a site. A site may have multiple site-network-accesses. +------------------+ Site | |----------------------------------- | |****** (site-network-access#1) ****** | New York Office | | |****** (site-network-access#2) ****** | |----------------------------------- +------------------+ Multiple site-network-accesses are used, for instance, in the case of multihoming. Some other meshing cases may also include multiple site-network-accesses. The site configuration is viewed as a global entity; we assume that it is mostly the management system's role to split the parameters between the different elements within the network. For example, in the case of the site-network-access configuration, the management system needs to split the overall parameters between the PE configuration and the CE configuration. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 28] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 6.3.1. Devices and Locations A site may be composed of multiple locations. All the locations will need to be configured as part of the "locations" container and list. A typical example of a multi-location site is a headquarters office in a city composed of multiple buildings. Those buildings may be located in different parts of the city and may be linked by intra-city fibers (customer metropolitan area network). In such a case, when connecting to a VPN service, the customer may ask for multihoming based on its distributed locations. New York Site +------------------+ Site | +--------------+ |----------------------------------- | | Manhattan | |****** (site-network-access#1) ****** | +--------------+ | | +--------------+ | | | Brooklyn | |****** (site-network-access#2) ****** | +--------------+ | | |----------------------------------- +------------------+ A customer may also request some premises equipment entities (CEs) from the SP via the "devices" container. Requesting a CE implies a provider-managed or co-managed model. A particular device must be ordered to a particular already-configured location. This would help the SP send the device to the appropriate postal address. In a multi-location site, a customer may, for example, request a CE for each location on the site where multihoming must be implemented. In the figure above, one device may be requested for the Manhattan location and one other for the Brooklyn location. By using devices and locations, the user can influence the multihoming scenario he wants to implement: single CE, dual CE, etc. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 29] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 6.3.2. Site Network Accesses As mentioned earlier, a site may be multihomed. Each IP network access for a site is defined in the "site-network-accesses" container. The site-network-access parameter defines how the site is connected on the network and is split into three main classes of parameters: o bearer: defines requirements of the attachment (below Layer 3). o connection: defines Layer 3 protocol parameters of the attachment. o availability: defines the site's availability policy. The availability parameters are defined in Section 6.7. The site-network-access has a specific type (site-network-access-type). This document defines two types: o point-to-point: describes a point-to-point connection between the SP and the customer. o multipoint: describes a multipoint connection between the SP and the customer. The type of site-network-access may have an impact on the parameters offered to the customer, e.g., an SP may not offer encryption for multipoint accesses. It is up to the provider to decide what parameter is supported for point-to-point and/or multipoint accesses; this topic is out of scope for this document. Some containers proposed in the model may require extensions in order to work properly for multipoint accesses. 6.3.2.1. Bearer The bearer container defines the requirements for the site attachment to the provider network that are below Layer 3. The bearer parameters will help determine the access media to be used. This is further described in Section 6.6.3. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 30] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 6.3.2.2. Connection The "ip-connection" container defines the protocol parameters of the attachment (IPv4 and IPv6). Depending on the management mode, it refers to PE-CE addressing or CE-to-customer-LAN addressing. In any case, it describes the responsibility boundary between the provider and the customer. For a customer-managed site, it refers to the PE-CE connection. For a provider-managed site, it refers to the CE-to-LAN connection. 6.3.2.2.1. IP Addressing An IP subnet can be configured for either IPv4 or IPv6 Layer 3 protocols. For a dual-stack connection, two subnets will be provided, one for each address family. The "address-allocation-type" determines how the address allocation needs to be done. The current model proposes five ways to perform IP address allocation: o provider-dhcp: The provider will provide DHCP service for customer equipment; this is applicable to either the "IPv4" container or the "IPv6" container. o provider-dhcp-relay: The provider will provide DHCP relay service for customer equipment; this is applicable to both IPv4 and IPv6 addressing. The customer needs to populate the DHCP server list to be used. o static-address: Addresses will be assigned manually; this is applicable to both IPv4 and IPv6 addressing. o slaac: This parameter enables stateless address autoconfiguration [RFC4862]. This is applicable to IPv6 only. o provider-dhcp-slaac: The provider will provide DHCP service for customer equipment, as well as stateless address autoconfiguration. This is applicable to IPv6 only. In the dynamic addressing mechanism, the SP is expected to provide at least the IP address, mask, and default gateway information. 6.3.2.2.2. OAM A customer may require a specific IP connectivity fault detection mechanism on the IP connection. The model supports BFD as a fault detection mechanism. This can be extended with other mechanisms via augmentation. The provider can propose some profiles to the Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 31] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 customer, depending on the service level the customer wants to achieve. Profile names must be communicated to the customer. This communication is out of scope for this document. Some fixed values for the holdtime period may also be imposed by the customer if the provider allows the customer this function. The "oam" container can easily be augmented by other mechanisms; in particular, work done by the LIME Working Group (https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/lime/charter/) may be reused in applicable scenarios. 6.3.2.3. Inheritance of Parameters Defined at Site Level and Site Network Access Level Some parameters can be configured at both the site level and the site-network-access level, e.g., routing, services, security. Inheritance applies when parameters are defined at the site level. If a parameter is configured at both the site level and the access level, the access-level parameter MUST override the site-level parameter. Those parameters will be described later in this document. In terms of provisioning impact, it will be up to the implementation to decide on the appropriate behavior when modifying existing configurations. But the SP will need to communicate to the user about the impact of using inheritance. For example, if we consider that a site has already provisioned three site-network-accesses, what will happen if a customer changes a service parameter at the site level? An implementation of this model may update the service parameters of all already-provisioned site-network-accesses (with potential impact on live traffic), or it may take into account this new parameter only for the new sites. 6.4. Site Role A VPN has a particular service topology, as described in Section 6.2.1. As a consequence, each site belonging to a VPN is assigned with a particular role in this topology. The site-role leaf defines the role of the site in a particular VPN topology. In the any-to-any VPN service topology, all sites MUST have the same role, which will be "any-to-any-role". In the Hub-and-Spoke VPN service topology or the Hub and Spoke disjoint VPN service topology, sites MUST have a Hub role or a Spoke role. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 32] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 6.5. Site Belonging to Multiple VPNs 6.5.1. Site VPN Flavor A site may be part of one or multiple VPNs. The "site-vpn-flavor" defines the way the VPN multiplexing is done. The current version of the model supports four flavors: o site-vpn-flavor-single: The site belongs to only one VPN. o site-vpn-flavor-multi: The site belongs to multiple VPNs, and all the logical accesses of the sites belong to the same set of VPNs. o site-vpn-flavor-sub: The site belongs to multiple VPNs with multiple logical accesses. Each logical access may map to different VPNs (one or many). o site-vpn-flavor-nni: The site represents an option A NNI. 6.5.1.1. Single VPN Attachment: site-vpn-flavor-single The figure below describes a single VPN attachment. The site connects to only one VPN. +--------+ +------------------+ Site / \ | |-----------------------------| | | |***(site-network-access#1)***| VPN1 | | New York Office | | | | |***(site-network-access#2)***| | | |-----------------------------| | +------------------+ \ / +--------+ 6.5.1.2. MultiVPN Attachment: site-vpn-flavor-multi The figure below describes a site connected to multiple VPNs. +---------+ +---/----+ \ +------------------+ Site / | \ | | |--------------------------------- | |VPN B| | |***(site-network-access#1)******* | | | | New York Office | | | | | | |***(site-network-access#2)******* \ | / | |-----------------------------| VPN A+-----|---+ +------------------+ \ / +--------+ Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 33] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 In the example above, the New York office is multihomed. Both logical accesses are using the same VPN attachment rules, and both are connected to VPN A and VPN B. Reaching VPN A or VPN B from the New York office will be done via destination-based routing. Having the same destination reachable from the two VPNs may cause routing troubles. The customer administration's role in this case would be to ensure the appropriate mapping of its prefixes in each VPN. 6.5.1.3. SubVPN Attachment: site-vpn-flavor-sub The figure below describes a subVPN attachment. The site connects to multiple VPNs, but each logical access is attached to a particular set of VPNs. A typical use case for a subVPN is a customer site used by multiple affiliates with private resources for each affiliate that cannot be shared (communication between the affiliates is prevented). It is similar to having separate sites, but in this case the customer wants to share some physical components while maintaining strong communication isolation between the affiliates. In this example, site-network-access#1 is attached to VPN B, while site-network-access#2 is attached to VPN A. +------------------+ Site +--------+ | |----------------------------------/ \ | |****(site-network-access#1)******| VPN B | | New York Office | \ / | | +--------+ | | +--------+ | | / \ | |****(site-network-access#2)******| VPN A | | | \ / | | +--------+ | |----------------------------------- +------------------+ Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 34] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 A multiVPN can be implemented in addition to a subVPN; as a consequence, each site-network-access can access multiple VPNs. In the example below, site-network-access#1 is mapped to VPN B and VPN C, while site-network-access#2 is mapped to VPN A and VPN D. +-----------------+ Site +------+ | |--------------------------------/ +-----+ | |****(site-network-access#1)****| VPN B / \ | New York Office | \ | VPN C | | | +-----\ / | | +-----+ | | | | +-------+ | | / +-----+ | |****(site-network-access#2)****| VPN A / \ | | \ | VPN D | | | +------\ / | |--------------------------------- +-----+ +-----------------+ Multihoming is also possible with subVPNs; in this case, site-network-accesses are grouped, and a particular group will have access to the same set of VPNs. In the example below, site-network-access#1 and site-network-access#2 are part of the same group (multihomed together) and are mapped to VPN B and VPN C; in addition, site-network-access#3 and site-network-access#4 are part of the same group (multihomed together) and are mapped to VPN A and VPN D. +-----------------+ Site +------+ | |---------------------------------/ +-----+ | |****(site-network-access#1)*****| VPN B / \ | New York Office |****(site-network-access#2)***** \ | VPN C | | | +-----\ / | | +-----+ | | | | +------+ | | / +-----+ | |****(site-network-access#3)*****| VPN A / \ | |****(site-network-access#4)***** \ | VPN D | | | +-----\ / | |---------------------------------- +-----+ +-----------------+ In terms of service configuration, a subVPN can be achieved by requesting that the site-network-access use the same bearer (see Sections 6.6.4 and 6.6.6.4 for more details). Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 35] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 6.5.1.4. NNI: site-vpn-flavor-nni A Network-to-Network Interface (NNI) scenario may be modeled using the sites container (see Section 6.15.1). Using the sites container to model an NNI is only one possible option for NNIs (see Section 6.15). This option is called "option A" by reference to the option A NNI defined in [RFC4364]. It is helpful for the SP to indicate that the requested VPN connection is not a regular site but rather is an NNI, as specific default device configuration parameters may be applied in the case of NNIs (e.g., ACLs, routing policies). SP A SP B ------------------- ------------------- / \ / \ | | | | | ++++++++ Inter-AS link ++++++++ | | + +_______________+ + | | + (VRF1)---(VPN1)----(VRF1) + | | + ASBR + + ASBR + | | + (VRF2)---(VPN2)----(VRF2) + | | + +_______________+ + | | ++++++++ ++++++++ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ++++++++ Inter-AS link ++++++++ | | + +_______________+ + | | + (VRF1)---(VPN1)----(VRF1) + | | + ASBR + + ASBR + | | + (VRF2)---(VPN2)----(VRF2) + | | + +_______________+ + | | ++++++++ ++++++++ | | | | | | | | | \ / \ / ------------------- ------------------- The figure above describes an option A NNI scenario that can be modeled using the sites container. In order to connect its customer VPNs (VPN1 and VPN2) in SP B, SP A may request the creation of some site-network-accesses to SP B. The site-vpn-flavor-nni will be used to inform SP B that this is an NNI and not a regular customer site. The site-vpn-flavor-nni may be multihomed and multiVPN as well. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 36] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 6.5.2. Attaching a Site to a VPN Due to the multiple site-vpn flavors, the attachment of a site to an IP VPN is done at the site-network-access (logical access) level through the "vpn-attachment" container. The vpn-attachment container is mandatory. The model provides two ways to attach a site to a VPN: o By referencing the target VPN directly. o By referencing a VPN policy for attachments that are more complex. A choice is implemented to allow the user to choose the flavor that provides the best fit. 6.5.2.1. Referencing a VPN Referencing a vpn-id provides an easy way to attach a particular logical access to a VPN. This is the best way in the case of a single VPN attachment or subVPN with a single VPN attachment per logical access. When referencing a vpn-id, the site-role setting must be added to express the role of the site in the target VPN service topology. SITE1 LA1 VPNA spoke-role LA2 VPNB spoke-role The example above describes a subVPN case where a site (SITE1) has two logical accesses (LA1 and LA2), with LA1 attached to VPNA and LA2 attached to VPNB. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 37] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 6.5.2.2. VPN Policy The "vpn-policy" list helps express a multiVPN scenario where a logical access belongs to multiple VPNs. Multiple VPN policies can be created to handle the subVPN case where each logical access is part of a different set of VPNs. As a site can belong to multiple VPNs, the vpn-policy list may be composed of multiple entries. A filter can be applied to specify that only some LANs of the site should be part of a particular VPN. Each time a site (or LAN) is attached to a VPN, the user must precisely describe its role (site-role) within the target VPN service topology. +--------------------------------------------------------------+ | Site1 ------ PE7 | +-------------------------+ [VPN2] | | | +-------------------------+ | | Site2 ------ PE3 PE4 ------ Site3 | +----------------------------------+ | | | +------------------------------------------------------------+ | | Site4 ------ PE5 | PE6 ------ Site5 | | | | | | [VPN3] | | +------------------------------------------------------------+ | | | +---------------------------+ In the example above, Site5 is part of two VPNs: VPN3 and VPN2. It will play a Hub role in VPN2 and an any-to-any role in VPN3. We can express such a multiVPN scenario as follows: Site5 POLICY1 ENTRY1 VPN2 hub-role Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 38] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 ENTRY2 VPN3 any-to-any-role LA1 POLICY1 Now, if a more-granular VPN attachment is necessary, filtering can be used. For example, if LAN1 from Site5 must be attached to VPN2 as a Hub and LAN2 must be attached to VPN3, the following configuration can be used: Site5 POLICY1 ENTRY1 LAN1 VPN2 hub-role ENTRY2 LAN2 Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 39] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 VPN3 any-to-any-role LA1 POLICY1 6.6. Deciding Where to Connect the Site The management system will have to determine where to connect each site-network-access of a particular site to the provider network (e.g., PE, aggregation switch). The current model proposes parameters and constraints that can influence the meshing of the site-network-access. The management system SHOULD honor any customer constraints. If a constraint is too strict and cannot be fulfilled, the management system MUST NOT provision the site and SHOULD provide relevant information to the user. How the information is provided is out of scope for this document. Whether or not to relax the constraint would then be left up to the user. Parameters are just hints for the management system for service placement. In addition to parameters and constraints, the management system's decision MAY be based on any other internal constraints that are left up to the SP: least load, distance, etc. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 40] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 6.6.1. Constraint: Device In the case of provider management or co-management, one or more devices have been ordered by the customer. The customer may force a particular site-network-access to be connected on a particular device that he ordered. New York Site +------------------+ Site | +--------------+ |----------------------------------- | | Manhattan | | | | CE1********* (site-network-access#1) ****** | +--------------+ | | +--------------+ | | | Brooklyn CE2********* (site-network-access#2) ****** | +--------------+ | | |----------------------------------- +------------------+ In the figure above, site-network-access#1 is associated with CE1 in the service request. The SP must ensure the provisioning of this connection. 6.6.2. Constraint/Parameter: Site Location The location information provided in this model MAY be used by a management system to determine the target PE to mesh the site (SP side). A particular location must be associated with each site network access when configuring it. The SP MUST honor the termination of the access on the location associated with the site network access (customer side). The "country-code" in the site location SHOULD be expressed as an ISO ALPHA-2 code. The site-network-access location is determined by the "location-flavor". In the case of a provider-managed or co-managed site, the user is expected to configure a "device-reference" (device case) that will bind the site-network-access to a particular device that the customer ordered. As each device is already associated with a particular location, in such a case the location information is retrieved from the device location. In the case of a customer- managed site, the user is expected to configure a "location-reference" (location case); this provides a reference to an existing configured location and will help with placement. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 41] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 POP#1 (New York) +---------+ | PE1 | Site #1 ---... | PE2 | (Atlantic City) | PE3 | +---------+ POP#2 (Washington) +---------+ | PE4 | | PE5 | | PE6 | +---------+ POP#3 (Philadelphia) +---------+ | PE7 | Site #2 CE#1---... | PE8 | (Reston) | PE9 | +---------+ In the example above, Site #1 is a customer-managed site with a location L1, while Site #2 is a provider-managed site for which a CE (CE#1) was ordered. Site #2 is configured with L2 as its location. When configuring a site-network-access for Site #1, the user will need to reference location L1 so that the management system will know that the access will need to terminate on this location. Then, for distance reasons, this management system may mesh Site #1 on a PE in the Philadelphia POP. It may also take into account resources available on PEs to determine the exact target PE (e.g., least loaded). For Site #2, the user is expected to configure the site-network-access with a device-reference to CE#1 so that the management system will know that the access must terminate on the location of CE#1 and must be connected to CE#1. For placement of the SP side of the access connection, in the case of the nearest PE used, it may mesh Site #2 on the Washington POP. 6.6.3. Constraint/Parameter: Access Type The management system needs to elect the access media to connect the site to the customer (for example, xDSL, leased line, Ethernet backhaul). The customer may provide some parameters/constraints that will provide hints to the management system. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 42] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 The bearer container information SHOULD be the first piece of information considered when making this decision: o The "requested-type" parameter provides information about the media type that the customer would like to use. If the "strict" leaf is equal to "true", this MUST be considered a strict constraint so that the management system cannot connect the site with another media type. If the "strict" leaf is equal to "false" (default) and if the requested media type cannot be fulfilled, the management system can select another media type. The supported media types SHOULD be communicated by the SP to the customer via a mechanism that is out of scope for this document. o The "always-on" leaf defines a strict constraint: if set to true, the management system MUST elect a media type that is "always-on" (e.g., this means no dial access type). o The "bearer-reference" parameter is used in cases where the customer has already ordered a network connection to the SP apart from the IP VPN site and wants to reuse this connection. The string used is an internal reference from the SP and describes the already-available connection. This is also a strict requirement that cannot be relaxed. How the reference is given to the customer is out of scope for this document, but as a pure example, when the customer ordered the bearer (through a process that is out of scope for this model), the SP may have provided the bearer reference that can be used for provisioning services on top. Any other internal parameters from the SP can also be used. The management system MAY use other parameters, such as the requested "svc-input-bandwidth" and "svc-output-bandwidth", to help decide which access type to use. 6.6.4. Constraint: Access Diversity Each site-network-access may have one or more constraints that would drive the placement of the access. By default, the model assumes that there are no constraints, but allocation of a unique bearer per site-network-access is expected. In order to help with the different placement scenarios, a site-network-access may be tagged using one or multiple group identifiers. The group identifier is a string, so it can accommodate both explicit naming of a group of sites (e.g., "multihomed-set1" or "subVPN") and the use of a numbered identifier (e.g., 12345678). The meaning of each group-id is local to each customer administrator, and the management system MUST ensure that different customers can use the same group-ids. One or more group-ids can also be defined at the Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 43] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 site level; as a consequence, all site-network-accesses under the site MUST inherit the group-ids of the site they belong to. When, in addition to the site group-ids some group-ids are defined at the site-network-access level, the management system MUST consider the union of all groups (site level and site network access level) for this particular site-network-access. For an already-configured site-network-access, each constraint MUST be expressed against a targeted set of site-network-accesses. This site-network-access MUST never be taken into account in the targeted set -- for example, "My site-network-access S must not be connected on the same POP as the site-network-accesses that are part of Group 10." The set of site-network-accesses against which the constraint is evaluated can be expressed as a list of groups, "all-other-accesses", or "all-other-groups". The all-other-accesses option means that the current site-network-access constraint MUST be evaluated against all the other site-network-accesses belonging to the current site. The all-other-groups option means that the constraint MUST be evaluated against all groups that the current site-network-access does not belong to. The current model proposes multiple constraint-types: o pe-diverse: The current site-network-access MUST NOT be connected to the same PE as the targeted site-network-accesses. o pop-diverse: The current site-network-access MUST NOT be connected to the same POP as the targeted site-network-accesses. o linecard-diverse: The current site-network-access MUST NOT be connected to the same linecard as the targeted site-network-accesses. o bearer-diverse: The current site-network-access MUST NOT use common bearer components compared to bearers used by the targeted site-network-accesses. "bearer-diverse" provides some level of diversity at the access level. As an example, two bearer-diverse site-network-accesses must not use the same DSLAM, BAS, or Layer 2 switch. o same-pe: The current site-network-access MUST be connected to the same PE as the targeted site-network-accesses. o same-bearer: The current site-network-access MUST be connected using the same bearer as the targeted site-network-accesses. These constraint-types can be extended through augmentation. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 44] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 Each constraint is expressed as "The site-network-access S must be (e.g., pe-diverse, pop-diverse) from these site-network-accesses." The group-id used to target some site-network-accesses may be the same as the one used by the current site-network-access. This eases the configuration of scenarios where a group of site-network-access points has a constraint between the access points in the group. As an example, if we want a set of sites (Site#1 to Site#5) to be connected on different PEs, we can tag them with the same group-id and express a pe-diverse constraint for this group-id. SITE1 1 10 pe-diverse 10 VPNA spoke-role Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 45] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 SITE2 1 10 pe-diverse 10 VPNA spoke-role ... SITE5 1 10 pe-diverse 10 Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 46] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 VPNA spoke-role The group-id used to target some site-network-accesses may also be different than the one used by the current site-network-access. This can be used to express that a group of sites has some constraints against another group of sites, but there is no constraint within the group. For example, we consider a set of six sites and two groups; we want to ensure that a site in the first group must be pop-diverse from a site in the second group: SITE1 1 10 pop-diverse 20 VPNA spoke-role Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 47] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 SITE2 1 10 pop-diverse 20 VPNA spoke-role ... SITE5 1 20 pop-diverse 10 Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 48] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 VPNA spoke-role SITE6 1 20 pop-diverse 10 VPNA spoke-role 6.6.5. Infeasible Access Placement Some infeasible access placement scenarios could be created via the proposed configuration framework. Such infeasible access placement scenarios could result from constraints that are too restrictive, leading to infeasible access placement in the network or conflicting Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 49] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 constraints that would also lead to infeasible access placement. An example of conflicting rules would be to request that site-network-access#1 be pe-diverse from site-network-access#2 and to request at the same time that site-network-access#2 be on the same PE as site-network-access#1. When the management system cannot determine the placement of a site-network-access, it SHOULD return an error message indicating that placement was not possible. 6.6.6. Examples of Access Placement 6.6.6.1. Multihoming The customer wants to create a multihomed site. The site will be composed of two site-network-accesses; for resiliency purposes, the customer wants the two site-network-accesses to be meshed on different POPs. POP#1 +-------+ +---------+ | | | PE1 | | |---site-network-access#1----| PE2 | | | | PE3 | | | +---------+ | Site#1| | | POP#2 | | +---------+ | | | PE4 | | |---site-network-access#2----| PE5 | | | | PE6 | | | +---------+ +-------+ This scenario can be expressed as follows: SITE1 1 10 pop-diverse Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 50] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 20 VPNA spoke-role 2 20 pop-diverse 10 VPNA spoke-role Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 51] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 But it can also be expressed as follows: SITE1 1 pop-diverse VPNA spoke-role 2 pop-diverse VPNA spoke-role Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 52] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 6.6.6.2. Site Offload The customer has six branch offices in a particular region, and he wants to prevent having all branch offices connected on the same PE. He wants to express that three branch offices cannot be connected on the same linecard. Also, the other branch offices must be connected on a different POP. Those other branch offices cannot also be connected on the same linecard. POP#1 +---------+ | PE1 | Office#1 ---... | PE2 | Office#2 ---... | PE3 | Office#3 ---... | PE4 | +---------+ POP#2 +---------+ Office#4 ---... | PE5 | Office#5 ---... | PE6 | Office#6 ---... | PE7 | +---------+ This scenario can be expressed as follows: o We need to create two groups of sites: Group#10, which is composed of Office#1, Office#2, and Office#3; and Group#20, which is composed of Office#4, Office#5, and Office#6. o Sites within Group#10 must be pop-diverse from sites within Group#20, and vice versa. o Sites within Group#10 must be linecard-diverse from other sites in Group#10 (same for Group#20).

Standards Track [Page 58] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 6.6.6.3. Parallel Links To increase its site bandwidth at lower cost, a customer wants to order two parallel site-network-accesses that will be connected to the same PE. *******site-network-access#1********** Site 1 *******site-network-access#2********** PE1 This scenario can be expressed as follows: SITE1 1 PE-linkgrp-1 same-pe PE-linkgrp-1 VPNB spoke-role 2 PE-linkgrp-1 Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 59] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 same-pe PE-linkgrp-1 VPNB spoke-role 6.6.6.4. SubVPN with Multihoming A customer has a site that is dual-homed. The dual-homing must be done on two different PEs. The customer also wants to implement two subVPNs on those multihomed accesses. +-----------------+ Site +------+ | |---------------------------------/ +-----+ | |****(site-network-access#1)*****| VPN B / \ | New York Office |****(site-network-access#2)************| VPN C | | | +-----\ / | | +-----+ | | | | +------+ | | / +-----+ | |****(site-network-access#3)*****| VPN B / \ | |****(site-network-access#4)************| VPN C | | | +-----\ / | |----------------------------------- +-----+ +-----------------+ This scenario can be expressed as follows: o The site will have four site network accesses (two subVPNs coupled via dual-homing). o Site-network-access#1 and site-network-access#3 will correspond to the multihoming of subVPN B. A PE-diverse constraint is required between them. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 60] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 o Site-network-access#2 and site-network-access#4 will correspond to the multihoming of subVPN C. A PE-diverse constraint is required between them. o To ensure proper usage of the same bearer for the subVPN, site-network-access#1 and site-network-access#2 must share the same bearer as site-network-access#3 and site-network-access#4.

Standards Track [Page 63] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 6.6.7. Route Distinguisher and VRF Allocation The route distinguisher (RD) is a critical parameter of PE-based L3VPNs as described in [RFC4364] that provides the ability to distinguish common addressing plans in different VPNs. As for route targets (RTs), a management system is expected to allocate a VRF on the target PE and an RD for this VRF. If a VRF already exists on the target PE and the VRF fulfills the connectivity constraints for the site, there is no need to recreate another VRF, and the site MAY be meshed within this existing VRF. How the management system checks that an existing VRF fulfills the connectivity constraints for a site is out of scope for this document. If no such VRF exists on the target PE, the management system has to initiate the creation of a new VRF on the target PE and has to allocate a new RD for this new VRF. The management system MAY apply a per-VPN or per-VRF allocation policy for the RD, depending on the SP's policy. In a per-VPN allocation policy, all VRFs (dispatched on multiple PEs) within a VPN will share the same RD value. In a per-VRF model, all VRFs should always have a unique RD value. Some other allocation policies are also possible, and this document does not restrict the allocation policies to be used. The allocation of RDs MAY be done in the same way as RTs. The examples provided in Section 6.2.1.1 could be reused in this scenario. Note that an SP MAY configure a target PE for an automated allocation of RDs. In this case, there will be no need for any backend system to allocate an RD value. 6.7. Site Network Access Availability A site may be multihomed, meaning that it has multiple site-network-access points. Placement constraints defined in previous sections will help ensure physical diversity. When the site-network-accesses are placed on the network, a customer may want to use a particular routing policy on those accesses. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 64] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 The "site-network-access/availability" container defines parameters for site redundancy. The "access-priority" leaf defines a preference for a particular access. This preference is used to model load-balancing or primary/backup scenarios. The higher the access-priority value, the higher the preference will be. The figure below describes how the access-priority attribute can be used. Hub#1 LAN (Primary/backup) Hub#2 LAN (Load-sharing) | | | access-priority 1 access-priority 1 | |--- CE1 ------- PE1 PE3 --------- CE3 --- | | | | | |--- CE2 ------- PE2 PE4 --------- CE4 --- | | access-priority 2 access-priority 1 | PE5 | | | CE5 | Spoke#1 site (Single-homed) In the figure above, Hub#2 requires load-sharing, so all the site-network-accesses must use the same access-priority value. On the other hand, as Hub#1 requires a primary site-network-access and a backup site-network-access, a higher access-priority setting will be configured on the primary site-network-access. Scenarios that are more complex can be modeled. Let's consider a Hub site with five accesses to the network (A1,A2,A3,A4,A5). The customer wants to load-share its traffic on A1,A2 in the nominal situation. If A1 and A2 fail, the customer wants to load-share its traffic on A3 and A4; finally, if A1 to A4 are down, he wants to use A5. We can model this easily by configuring the following access-priority values: A1=100, A2=100, A3=50, A4=50, A5=10. The access-priority scenario has some limitations. An access-priority scenario like the previous one with five accesses but with the constraint of having traffic load-shared between A3 and A4 in the case where A1 OR A2 is down is not achievable. But the authors believe that using the access-priority attribute will cover most of the deployment use cases and that the model can still be extended via augmentation to support additional use cases. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 65] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 6.8. Traffic Protection The service model supports the ability to protect the traffic for a site. Such protection provides a better level of availability in multihoming scenarios by, for example, using local-repair techniques in case of failures. The associated level of service guarantee would be based on an agreement between the customer and the SP and is out of scope for this document. Site#1 Site#2 CE1 ----- PE1 -- P1 P3 -- PE3 ---- CE3 | | | | | | CE2 ----- PE2 -- P2 P4 -- PE4 ---- CE4 / / CE5 ----+ Site#3 In the figure above, we consider an IP VPN service with three sites, including two dual-homed sites (Site#1 and Site#2). For dual-homed sites, we consider PE1-CE1 and PE3-CE3 as primary and PE2-CE2,PE4-CE4 as backup for the example (even if protection also applies to load-sharing scenarios). In order to protect Site#2 against a failure, a user may set the "traffic-protection/enabled" leaf to true for Site#2. How the traffic protection will be implemented is out of scope for this document. However, in such a case, we could consider traffic coming from a remote site (Site#1 or Site#3), where the primary path would use PE3 as the egress PE. PE3 may have preprogrammed a backup forwarding entry pointing to the backup path (through PE4-CE4) for all prefixes going through the PE3-CE3 link. How the backup path is computed is out of scope for this document. When the PE3-CE3 link fails, traffic is still received by PE3, but PE3 automatically switches traffic to the backup entry; the path will therefore be PE1-P1-(...)-P3-PE3-PE4-CE4 until the remote PEs reconverge and use PE4 as the egress PE. 6.9. Security The "security" container defines customer-specific security parameters for the site. The security options supported in the model are limited but may be extended via augmentation. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 66] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 6.9.1. Authentication The current model does not support any authentication parameters for the site connection, but such parameters may be added in the "authentication" container through augmentation. 6.9.2. Encryption Traffic encryption can be requested on the connection. It may be performed at Layer 2 or Layer 3 by selecting the appropriate enumeration in the "layer" leaf. For example, an SP may use IPsec when a customer requests Layer 3 encryption. The encryption profile can be SP defined or customer specific. When an SP profile is used and a key (e.g., a pre-shared key) is allocated by the provider to be used by a customer, the SP should provide a way to communicate the key in a secured way to the customer. When a customer profile is used, the model supports only a pre-shared key for authentication, with the pre-shared key provided through the NETCONF or RESTCONF request. A secure channel must be used to ensure that the pre-shared key cannot be intercepted. For security reasons, it may be necessary for the customer to change the pre-shared key on a regular basis. To perform a key change, the user can ask the SP to change the pre-shared key by submitting a new pre-shared key for the site configuration (as shown below). This mechanism might not be hitless. SITE1 1 MY_NEW_KEY Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 67] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 A hitless key-change mechanism may be added through augmentation. Other key-management methodologies may be added through augmentation. A "pki" container, which is empty, has been created to help with support of PKI through augmentation. 6.10. Management The model proposes three types of common management options: o provider-managed: The CE router is managed only by the provider. In this model, the responsibility boundary between the SP and the customer is between the CE and the customer network. o customer-managed: The CE router is managed only by the customer. In this model, the responsibility boundary between the SP and the customer is between the PE and the CE. o co-managed: The CE router is primarily managed by the provider; in addition, the SP allows customers to access the CE for configuration/monitoring purposes. In the co-managed mode, the responsibility boundary is the same as the responsibility boundary for the provider-managed model. Based on the management model, different security options MAY be derived. In the co-managed case, the model proposes some options to define the management address family (IPv4 or IPv6) and the associated management address. 6.11. Routing Protocols "routing-protocol" defines which routing protocol must be activated between the provider and the customer router. The current model supports the following settings: bgp, rip, ospf, static, direct, and vrrp. The routing protocol defined applies at the provider-to-customer boundary. Depending on how the management model is administered, it may apply to the PE-CE boundary or the CE-to-customer boundary. In the case of a customer-managed site, the routing protocol defined will be activated between the PE and the CE router managed by the customer. In the case of a provider-managed site, the routing protocol defined will be activated between the CE managed by the SP and the router or LAN belonging to the customer. In this case, we expect the PE-CE routing to be configured based on the SP's rules, as both are managed by the same entity. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 68] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 Rtg protocol 192.0.2.0/24 ----- CE ----------------- PE1 Customer-managed site Rtg protocol Customer router ----- CE ----------------- PE1 Provider-managed site All the examples below will refer to a scenario for a customer- managed site. 6.11.1. Handling of Dual Stack All routing protocol types support dual stack by using the "address-family" leaf-list. Example of dual stack using the same routing protocol: static ipv4 ipv6 Example of dual stack using two different routing protocols: rip ipv4 ospf ipv6 Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 69] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 6.11.2. LAN Directly Connected to SP Network The routing protocol type "direct" SHOULD be used when a customer LAN is directly connected to the provider network and must be advertised in the IP VPN. LAN attached directly to provider network: 192.0.2.0/24 ----- PE1 In this case, the customer has a default route to the PE address. 6.11.3. LAN Directly Connected to SP Network with Redundancy The routing protocol type "vrrp" SHOULD be used and advertised in the IP VPN when o the customer LAN is directly connected to the provider network, and o LAN redundancy is expected. LAN attached directly to provider network with LAN redundancy: 192.0.2.0/24 ------ PE1 | +--- PE2 In this case, the customer has a default route to the SP network. 6.11.4. Static Routing The routing protocol type "static" MAY be used when a customer LAN is connected to the provider network through a CE router and must be advertised in the IP VPN. In this case, the static routes give next hops (nh) to the CE and to the PE. The customer has a default route to the SP network.

Standards Track [Page 70] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 6.11.5. RIP Routing The routing protocol type "rip" MAY be used when a customer LAN is connected to the provider network through a CE router and must be advertised in the IP VPN. For IPv4, the model assumes that RIP version 2 is used. In the case of dual-stack routing requested through this model, the management system will be responsible for configuring RIP (including the correct version number) and associated address families on network elements. RIP rtg 192.0.2.0/24 ------ CE -------------- PE 6.11.6. OSPF Routing The routing protocol type "ospf" MAY be used when a customer LAN is connected to the provider network through a CE router and must be advertised in the IP VPN. It can be used to extend an existing OSPF network and interconnect different areas. See [RFC4577] for more details. +---------------------+ | | OSPF | | OSPF area 1 | | area 2 (OSPF | | (OSPF area 1) --- CE ---------- PE PE ----- CE --- area 2) | | +---------------------+ The model also proposes an option to create an OSPF sham link between two sites sharing the same area and having a backdoor link. The sham link is created by referencing the target site sharing the same OSPF area. The management system will be responsible for checking to see if there is already a sham link configured for this VPN and area between the same pair of PEs. If there is no existing sham link, the management system will provision one. This sham link MAY be reused by other sites. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 71] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 +------------------------+ | | | | | PE (--sham link--)PE | | | | | +----|----------------|--+ | OSPF area 1 | OSPF area 1 | | CE1 CE2 | | (OSPF area 1) (OSPF area 1) | | +----------------+ Regarding dual-stack support, the user MAY specify both IPv4 and IPv6 address families, if both protocols should be routed through OSPF. As OSPF uses separate protocol instances for IPv4 and IPv6, the management system will need to configure both OSPF version 2 and OSPF version 3 on the PE-CE link. Example of OSPF routing parameters in the service model: ospf 0.0.0.1 ipv4 ipv6 Example of PE configuration done by the management system: router ospf 10 area 0.0.0.1 interface Ethernet0/0 ! router ospfv3 10 area 0.0.0.1 interface Ethernet0/0 ! Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 72] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 6.11.7. BGP Routing The routing protocol type "bgp" MAY be used when a customer LAN is connected to the provider network through a CE router and must be advertised in the IP VPN. BGP rtg 192.0.2.0/24 ------ CE -------------- PE The session addressing will be derived from connection parameters as well as the SP's knowledge of the addressing plan that is in use. In the case of dual-stack access, the user MAY request BGP routing for both IPv4 and IPv6 by specifying both address families. It will be up to the SP and management system to determine how to decline the configuration (two BGP sessions, single, multi-session, etc.). The service configuration below activates BGP on the PE-CE link for both IPv4 and IPv6. BGP activation requires the SP to know the address of the customer peer. The "static-address" allocation type for the IP connection MUST be used. bgp 65000 ipv4 ipv6 Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 73] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 Depending on the SP flavor, a management system can divide this service configuration into different flavors, as shown by the following examples. Example of PE configuration done by the management system (single IPv4 transport session): router bgp 100 neighbor 203.0.113.2 remote-as 65000 address-family ipv4 vrf Cust1 neighbor 203.0.113.2 activate address-family ipv6 vrf Cust1 neighbor 203.0.113.2 activate neighbor 203.0.113.2 route-map SET-NH-IPV6 out Example of PE configuration done by the management system (two sessions): router bgp 100 neighbor 203.0.113.2 remote-as 65000 neighbor 2001::2 remote-as 65000 address-family ipv4 vrf Cust1 neighbor 203.0.113.2 activate address-family ipv6 vrf Cust1 neighbor 2001::2 activate Example of PE configuration done by the management system (multi-session): router bgp 100 neighbor 203.0.113.2 remote-as 65000 neighbor 203.0.113.2 multisession per-af address-family ipv4 vrf Cust1 neighbor 203.0.113.2 activate address-family ipv6 vrf Cust1 neighbor 203.0.113.2 activate neighbor 203.0.113.2 route-map SET-NH-IPV6 out Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 74] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 6.12. Service The service defines service parameters associated with the site. 6.12.1. Bandwidth The service bandwidth refers to the bandwidth requirement between the PE and the CE (WAN link bandwidth). The requested bandwidth is expressed as svc-input-bandwidth and svc-output-bandwidth in bits per second. The input/output direction uses the customer site as a reference: "input bandwidth" means download bandwidth for the site, and "output bandwidth" means upload bandwidth for the site. The service bandwidth is only configurable at the site-network-access level. Using a different input and output bandwidth will allow the SP to determine if the customer allows for asymmetric bandwidth access, such as ADSL. It can also be used to set rate-limiting in a different way for uploading and downloading on a symmetric bandwidth access. The bandwidth is a service bandwidth expressed primarily as IP bandwidth, but if the customer enables MPLS for Carriers' Carriers (CsC), this becomes MPLS bandwidth. 6.12.2. QoS The model proposes to define QoS parameters in an abstracted way: o qos-classification-policy: policy that defines a set of ordered rules to classify customer traffic. o qos-profile: QoS scheduling profile to be applied. 6.12.2.1. QoS Classification QoS classification rules are handled by the "qos-classification-policy" container. The qos-classification-policy container is an ordered list of rules that match a flow or application and set the appropriate target class of service (target-class-id). The user can define the match using an application reference or a flow definition that is more specific (e.g., based on Layer 3 source and destination addresses, Layer 4 ports, and Layer 4 protocol). When a flow definition is used, the user can employ a "target-sites" leaf-list to identify the destination of a flow rather than using destination IP addresses. In such a case, an association between the site abstraction and the IP Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 75] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 addresses used by this site must be done dynamically. How this association is done is out of scope for this document; an implementation might not support this criterion and should advertise a deviation in this case. A rule that does not have a match statement is considered a match-all rule. An SP may implement a default terminal classification rule if the customer does not provide it. It will be up to the SP to determine its default target class. The current model defines some applications, but new application identities may be added through augmentation. The exact meaning of each application identity is up to the SP, so it will be necessary for the SP to advise the customer on the usage of application matching. Where the classification is done depends on the SP's implementation of the service, but classification concerns the flow coming from the customer site and entering the network. Provider network +-----------------------+ 192.0.2.0/24 198.51.100.0/24 ---- CE --------- PE Traffic flow ----------> In the figure above, the management system should implement the classification rule: o in the ingress direction on the PE interface, if the CE is customer-managed. o in the ingress direction on the CE interface connected to the customer LAN, if the CE is provider-managed. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 76] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 The figure below describes a sample service description of QoS classification for a site: 1 192.0.2.0/24 203.0.113.1/32 80 tcp DATA2 2 192.0.2.0/24 203.0.113.1/32 21 tcp DATA2 3 p2p DATA3 4 DATA1 In the example above: o HTTP traffic from the 192.0.2.0/24 LAN destined for 203.0.113.1/32 will be classified in DATA2. o FTP traffic from the 192.0.2.0/24 LAN destined for 203.0.113.1/32 will be classified in DATA2. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 77] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 o Peer-to-peer traffic will be classified in DATA3. o All other traffic will be classified in DATA1. The order of rules is very important. The management system responsible for translating those rules in network element configuration MUST keep the same processing order in network element configuration. The order of rules is defined by the "id" leaf. The lowest id MUST be processed first. 6.12.2.2. QoS Profile The user can choose either a standard profile provided by the operator or a custom profile. The "qos-profile" container defines the traffic-scheduling policy to be used by the SP. Provider network +-----------------------+ 192.0.2.0/24 198.51.100.0/24 ---- CE --------- PE \ / qos-profile In the case of a provider-managed or co-managed connection, the provider should ensure scheduling according to the requested policy in both traffic directions (SP to customer and customer to SP). As an example, a device-scheduling policy may be implemented on both the PE side and the CE side of the WAN link. In the case of a customer- managed connection, the provider is only responsible for ensuring scheduling from the SP network to the customer site. As an example, a device-scheduling policy may be implemented only on the PE side of the WAN link towards the customer. A custom QoS profile is defined as a list of classes of services and associated properties. The properties are: o rate-limit: used to rate-limit the class of service. The value is expressed as a percentage of the global service bandwidth. When the qos-profile container is implemented on the CE side, svc-output-bandwidth is taken into account as a reference. When it is implemented on the PE side, svc-input-bandwidth is used. o latency: used to define the latency constraint of the class. The latency constraint can be expressed as the lowest possible latency or a latency boundary expressed in milliseconds. How this latency constraint will be fulfilled is up to the SP's implementation of Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 78] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 the service: a strict priority queuing may be used on the access and in the core network, and/or a low-latency routing configuration may be created for this traffic class. o jitter: used to define the jitter constraint of the class. The jitter constraint can be expressed as the lowest possible jitter or a jitter boundary expressed in microseconds. How this jitter constraint will be fulfilled is up to the SP's implementation of the service: a strict priority queuing may be used on the access and in the core network, and/or a jitter-aware routing configuration may be created for this traffic class. o bandwidth: used to define a guaranteed amount of bandwidth for the class of service. It is expressed as a percentage. The "guaranteed-bw-percent" parameter uses available bandwidth as a reference. When the qos-profile container is implemented on the CE side, svc-output-bandwidth is taken into account as a reference. When it is implemented on the PE side, svc-input-bandwidth is used. By default, the bandwidth reservation is only guaranteed at the access level. The user can use the "end-to-end" leaf to request an end-to-end bandwidth reservation, including across the MPLS transport network. (In other words, the SP will activate something in the MPLS core to ensure that the bandwidth request from the customer will be fulfilled by the MPLS core as well.) How this is done (e.g., RSVP reservation, controller reservation) is out of scope for this document. Some constraints may not be offered by an SP; in this case, a deviation should be advertised. In addition, due to network conditions, some constraints may not be completely fulfilled by the SP; in this case, the SP should advise the customer about the limitations. How this communication is done is out of scope for this document. Example of service configuration using a standard QoS profile: 1245HRTFGJGJ154654 100000000 100000000 PLATINUM Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 79] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 555555AAAA2344 2000000 2000000 GOLD Example of service configuration using a custom QoS profile: Site1 100000000 100000000 REAL_TIME 10 DATA1 70 80 DATA2 200 5 Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 80] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 The custom QoS profile for Site1 defines a REAL_TIME class with a latency constraint expressed as the lowest possible latency. It also defines two data classes -- DATA1 and DATA2. The two classes express a latency boundary constraint as well as a bandwidth reservation, as the REAL_TIME class is rate-limited to 10% of the service bandwidth (10% of 100 Mbps = 10 Mbps). In cases where congestion occurs, the REAL_TIME traffic can go up to 10 Mbps (let's assume that only 5 Mbps are consumed). DATA1 and DATA2 will share the remaining bandwidth (95 Mbps) according to their percentage. So, the DATA1 class will be served with at least 76 Mbps of bandwidth, while the DATA2 class will be served with at least 4.75 Mbps. The latency boundary information of the data class may help the SP define a specific buffer tuning or a specific routing within the network. The maximum percentage to be used is not limited by this model but MUST be limited by the management system according to the policies authorized by the SP. 6.12.3. Multicast The "multicast" container defines the type of site in the customer multicast service topology: source, receiver, or both. These parameters will help the management system optimize the multicast service. Users can also define the type of multicast relationship with the customer: router (requires a protocol such as PIM), host (IGMP or MLD), or both. An address family (IPv4, IPv6, or both) can also be defined. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 81] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 6.13. Enhanced VPN Features 6.13.1. Carriers' Carriers In the case of CsC [RFC4364], a customer may want to build an MPLS service using an IP VPN to carry its traffic. LAN customer1 | | CE1 | | ------------- (vrf_cust1) CE1_ISP1 | ISP1 POP | MPLS link | ------------- | (vrf ISP1) PE1 (...) Provider backbone PE2 (vrf ISP1) | | ------------ | | MPLS link | ISP1 POP CE2_ISP1 (vrf_cust1) | ------------ | CE2 | LAN customer1 In the figure above, ISP1 resells an IP VPN service but has no core network infrastructure between its POPs. ISP1 uses an IP VPN as the core network infrastructure (belonging to another provider) between its POPs. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 82] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 In order to support CsC, the VPN service must indicate MPLS support by setting the "carrierscarrier" leaf to true in the vpn-service list. The link between CE1_ISP1/PE1 and CE2_ISP1/PE2 must also run an MPLS signalling protocol. This configuration is done at the site level. In the proposed model, LDP or BGP can be used as the MPLS signalling protocol. In the case of LDP, an IGP routing protocol MUST also be activated. In the case of BGP signalling, BGP MUST also be configured as the routing protocol. If CsC is enabled, the requested "svc-mtu" leaf will refer to the MPLS MTU and not to the IP MTU. 6.14. External ID References The service model sometimes refers to external information through identifiers. As an example, to order a cloud-access to a particular cloud service provider (CSP), the model uses an identifier to refer to the targeted CSP. If a customer is directly using this service model as an API (through REST or NETCONF, for example) to order a particular service, the SP should provide a list of authorized identifiers. In the case of cloud-access, the SP will provide the associated identifiers for each available CSP. The same applies to other identifiers, such as std-qos-profile, OAM profile-name, and provider-profile for encryption. How an SP provides the meanings of those identifiers to the customer is out of scope for this document. 6.15. Defining NNIs An autonomous system (AS) is a single network or group of networks that is controlled by a common system administration group and that uses a single, clearly defined routing protocol. In some cases, VPNs need to span different ASes in different geographic areas or span different SPs. The connection between ASes is established by the SPs and is seamless to the customer. Examples include o a partnership between SPs (e.g., carrier, cloud) to extend their VPN service seamlessly. o an internal administrative boundary within a single SP (e.g., backhaul versus core versus data center). NNIs (network-to-network interfaces) have to be defined to extend the VPNs across multiple ASes. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 83] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 [RFC4364] defines multiple flavors of VPN NNI implementations. Each implementation has pros and cons; this topic is outside the scope of this document. For example, in an Inter-AS option A, autonomous system border router (ASBR) peers are connected by multiple interfaces with at least one of those interfaces spanning the two ASes while being present in the same VPN. In order for these ASBRs to signal unlabeled IP prefixes, they associate each interface with a VPN routing and forwarding (VRF) instance and a Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) session. As a result, traffic between the back-to-back VRFs is IP. In this scenario, the VPNs are isolated from each other, and because the traffic is IP, QoS mechanisms that operate on IP traffic can be applied to achieve customer service level agreements (SLAs). -------- -------------- ----------- / \ / \ / \ | Cloud | | | | | | Provider |-----NNI-----| |----NNI---| Data Center | | #1 | | | | | \ / | | \ / -------- | | ----------- | | -------- | My network | ----------- / \ | | / \ | Cloud | | | | | | Provider |-----NNI-----| |---NNI---| L3VPN | | #2 | | | | Partner | \ / | | | | -------- | | | | \ / | | -------------- \ / | ----------- | NNI | | ------------------- / \ | | | | | | | L3VPN Partner | | | \ / ------------------- Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 84] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 The figure above describes an SP network called "My network" that has several NNIs. This network uses NNIs to: o increase its footprint by relying on L3VPN partners. o connect its own data center services to the customer IP VPN. o enable the customer to access its private resources located in a private cloud owned by some CSPs. 6.15.1.

For resiliency purposes, there may be multiple physical connections between the ASes. A VPN connection -- physical or logical (on top of physical) -- is created for each VPN that needs to cross the AS boundary, thus providing a back-to-back VRF model. From a service model's perspective, this VPN connection can be seen as a site. Let's say that AS B wants to extend some VPN connections for VPN C on AS A. The administrator of AS B can use this service model to order a site on AS A. All connection scenarios could be Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 85] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 realized using the features of the current model. As an example, the figure above shows two physical connections that have logical connections per VPN overlaid on them. This could be seen as a dual-homed subVPN scenario. Also, the administrator of AS B will be able to choose the appropriate routing protocol (e.g., E-BGP) to dynamically exchange routes between ASes. This document assumes that the option A NNI flavor SHOULD reuse the existing VPN site modeling. Example: a customer wants its CSP A to attach its virtual network N to an existing IP VPN (VPN1) that he has from L3VPN SP B. CSP A L3VPN SP B ----------------- ------------------- / \ / \ | | | | | | VM --| ++++++++ NNI ++++++++ |--- VPN1 | | + +_________+ + | Site#1 | |--------(VRF1)---(VPN1)--(VRF1)+ | | | + ASBR + + ASBR + | | | + +_________+ + | | | ++++++++ ++++++++ | | VM --| | | |--- VPN1 | |Virtual | | | Site#2 | |Network | | | | VM --| | | |--- VPN1 | | | | | Site#3 \ / \ / ----------------- ------------------- | | VPN1 Site#4 To create the VPN connectivity, the CSP or the customer may use the L3VPN service model that SP B exposes. We could consider that, as the NNI is shared, the physical connection (bearer) between CSP A and SP B already exists. CSP A may request through a service model the creation of a new site with a single site-network-access (single-homing is used in the figure). As a placement constraint, CSP A may use the existing bearer reference it has from SP A to force the placement of the VPN NNI on the existing link. The XML below illustrates a possible configuration request to SP B: Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 86] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 CSP_A_attachment NY US site-vpn-flavor-nni bgp 500 ipv4 CSP_A_VN1 static-address 203.0.113.1 203.0.113.2 30 450000000 450000000 VPN1 any-to-any-role customer-managed Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 87] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 The case described above is different from a scenario using the cloud-accesses container, as the cloud-access provides a public cloud access while this example enables access to private resources located in a CSP network. 6.15.2.

For resiliency purposes, there may be multiple physical connections between the ASes. The VPN "connection" between ASes is done by exchanging VPN routes through MP-BGP [RFC4760]. There are multiple flavors of implementations of such an NNI. For example: 1. The NNI is internal to the provider and is situated between a backbone and a data center. There is enough trust between the domains to not filter the VPN routes. So, all the VPN routes are exchanged. RT filtering may be implemented to save some unnecessary route states. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 88] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 2. The NNI is used between providers that agreed to exchange VPN routes for specific RTs only. Each provider is authorized to use the RT values from the other provider. 3. The NNI is used between providers that agreed to exchange VPN routes for specific RTs only. Each provider has its own RT scheme. So, a customer spanning the two networks will have different RTs in each network for a particular VPN. Case 1 does not require any service modeling, as the protocol enables the dynamic exchange of necessary VPN routes. Case 2 requires that an RT-filtering policy on ASBRs be maintained. From a service modeling point of view, it is necessary to agree on the list of RTs to authorize. In Case 3, both ASes need to agree on the VPN RT to exchange, as well as how to map a VPN RT from AS A to the corresponding RT in AS B (and vice versa). Those modelings are currently out of scope for this document.

Standards Track [Page 89] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 The example above describes an NNI connection between CSP A and SP network B. Both SPs do not trust themselves and use a different RT allocation policy. So, in terms of implementation, the customer VPN has a different RT in each network (RT A in CSP A and RT B in SP network B). In order to connect the customer virtual network in CSP A to the customer IP VPN (VPN1) in SP network B, CSP A should request that SP network B open the customer VPN on the NNI (accept the appropriate RT). Who does the RT translation depends on the agreement between the two SPs: SP B may permit CSP A to request VPN (RT) translation. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 90] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 6.15.3.

The difference is that the forwarding plane and the control plane are on different nodes, so the MP-BGP session is multihop between routing gateway (RGW) nodes. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 91] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 From a VPN service's point of view, modeling options B and C will be identical. 7. Service Model Usage Example As explained in Section 5, this service model is intended to be instantiated at a management layer and is not intended to be used directly on network elements. The management system serves as a central point of configuration of the overall service. This section provides an example of how a management system can use this model to configure an IP VPN service on network elements. In this example, we want to achieve the provisioning of a VPN service for three sites using a Hub-and-Spoke VPN service topology. One of the sites will be dual-homed, and load-sharing is expected. +-------------------------------------------------------------+ | Hub_Site ------ PE1 PE2 ------ Spoke_Site1 | | | +----------------------------------+ | | | | | +----------------------------------+ | Hub_Site ------ PE3 PE4 ------ Spoke_Site2 | +-------------------------------------------------------------+ The following XML describes the overall simplified service configuration of this VPN. 12456487 hub-spoke Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 92] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 When receiving the request for provisioning the VPN service, the management system will internally (or through communication with another OSS component) allocate VPN RTs. In this specific case, two RTs will be allocated (100:1 for Hub and 100:2 for Spoke). The output below describes the configuration of Spoke_Site1. Spoke_Site1 NY US bgp 500 ipv4 ipv6 Spoke_Site1 20 pe-diverse 10 static-address Litkowski, et al.

It MUST first determine the target network elements to provision the access, particularly the PE router (and perhaps also an aggregation switch). As described in Section 6.6, the management system SHOULD use the location information and SHOULD use the access-diversity constraint to find the appropriate PE. In this case, we consider that Spoke_Site1 requires PE diversity with the Hub and that the management system allocates PEs based on the least distance. Based on the location information, the management system finds the available PEs in the area nearest the customer and picks one that fits the access-diversity constraint. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 94] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 When the PE is chosen, the management system needs to allocate interface resources on the node. One interface is selected from the pool of available PEs. The management system can start provisioning the chosen PE node via whatever means the management system prefers (e.g., NETCONF, CLI). The management system will check to see if a VRF that fits its needs is already present. If not, it will provision the VRF: the RD will be derived from the internal allocation policy model, and the RTs will be derived from the VPN policy configuration of the site (the management system allocated some RTs for the VPN). As the site is a Spoke site (site-role), the management system knows which RTs must be imported and exported. As the site is provider-managed, some management RTs may also be added (100:5000). Standard provider VPN policies MAY also be added in the configuration. Example of generated PE configuration: ip vrf Customer1 export-map STD-CUSTOMER-EXPORT <---- Standard SP configuration route-distinguisher 100:3123234324 route-target import 100:1 route-target import 100:5000 <---- Standard SP configuration route-target export 100:2 for provider-managed CE ! When the VRF has been provisioned, the management system can start configuring the access on the PE using the allocated interface information. IP addressing is chosen by the management system. One address will be picked from an allocated subnet for the PE, and another will be used for the CE configuration. Routing protocols will also be configured between the PE and CE; because this model is provider-managed, the choices are left to the SP. BGP was chosen for this example. This choice is independent of the routing protocol chosen by the customer. BGP will be used to configure the CE-to-LAN connection as requested in the service model. Peering addresses will be derived from those of the connection. As the CE is provider- managed, the CE's AS number can be automatically allocated by the management system. Standard configuration templates provided by the SP may also be added. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 95] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 Example of generated PE configuration: interface Ethernet1/1/0.10 encapsulation dot1q 10 ip vrf forwarding Customer1 ip address 198.51.100.1 255.255.255.252 <---- Comes from automated allocation ipv6 address 2001:db8::10:1/64 ip access-group STD-PROTECT-IN <---- Standard SP config ! router bgp 100 address-family ipv4 vrf Customer1 neighbor 198.51.100.2 remote-as 65000 <---- Comes from automated allocation neighbor 198.51.100.2 route-map STD in <---- Standard SP config neighbor 198.51.100.2 filter-list 10 in <---- Standard SP config ! address-family ipv6 vrf Customer1 neighbor 2001:db8::0a10:2 remote-as 65000 <---- Comes from automated allocation neighbor 2001:db8::0a10:2 route-map STD in <---- Standard SP config neighbor 2001:db8::0a10:2 filter-list 10 in <---- Standard SP config ! ip route vrf Customer1 192.0.2.1 255.255.255.255 198.51.100.2 ! Static route for provider administration of CE ! As the CE router is not reachable at this stage, the management system can produce a complete CE configuration that can be manually uploaded to the node before sending the CE configuration to the customer premises. The CE configuration will be built in the same way as the PE would be configured. Based on the CE type (vendor/model) allocated to the customer as well as the bearer information, the management system knows which interface must be configured on the CE. PE-CE link configuration is expected to be handled automatically using the SP OSS, as both resources are managed internally. CE-to-LAN-interface parameters such as IP addressing are derived from the ip-connection container, taking into account how the management system distributes addresses between the PE and CE within the subnet. This will allow a plug-and-play configuration for the CE to be created. Litkowski, et al.

Interaction with Other YANG Modules As expressed in Section 5, this service model is intended to be instantiated in a management system and not directly on network elements. The management system's role will be to configure the network elements. The management system may be modular, so the component instantiating the service model (let's call it "service component") and the component responsible for network element configuration (let's call it "configuration component") may be different. l3vpn-svc | Model | | +---------------------+ | Service component | Service datastore +---------------------+ | | +---------------------+ +----| Config component |------+ / +---------------------+ \ Network / / \ \ Configuration / / \ \ models / / \ \ ++++++++ ++++++++ ++++++++ ++++++++ + CE A + ------- + PE A + + PE B + ----- + CE B + Config ++++++++ ++++++++ ++++++++ ++++++++ datastore Site A Site B In the previous sections, we provided some examples of the translation of service provisioning requests to router configuration lines. In the NETCONF/YANG ecosystem, we expect NETCONF/YANG to be used between the configuration component and network elements to configure the requested services on those elements. In this framework, specifications are expected to provide specific YANG modeling of service components on network elements. There will be a strong relationship between the abstracted view provided by this service model and the detailed configuration view that will be provided by specific configuration models for network elements. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 98] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 The authors of this document anticipate definitions of YANG models for the network elements listed below. Note that this list is not exhaustive: o VRF definition, including VPN policy expression. o Physical interface. o IP layer (IPv4, IPv6). o QoS: classification, profiles, etc. o Routing protocols: support of configuration of all protocols listed in the document, as well as routing policies associated with those protocols. o Multicast VPN. o Network address translation. Example of a VPN site request at the service level, using this model: Site A static-address 203.0.113.254 203.0.113.2 24 VPNPOL1 Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 99] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 static 198.51.100.0/30 203.0.113.2 customer-managed VPNPOL1 1 VPN1 any-to-any-role In the service example above, the service component is expected to request that the configuration component of the management system provide the configuration of the service elements. If we consider that the service component selected a PE (PE A) as the target PE for the site, the configuration component will need to push the configuration to PE A. The configuration component will use several YANG data models to define the configuration to be applied to PE A. The XML configuration of PE A might look like this: eth0 ianaift:ethernetCsmacd Link to CE A. Litkowski, et al.

Security Considerations The YANG module defined in this document MAY be accessed via the RESTCONF protocol [RFC8040] or the NETCONF protocol [RFC6241]. The lowest RESTCONF or NETCONF layer requires that the transport-layer protocol provide both data integrity and confidentiality; see Section 2 in [RFC8040] and Section 2 in [RFC6241]. The client MUST carefully examine the certificate presented by the server to determine if it meets the client's expectations, and the server MUST authenticate client access to any protected resource. The client identity derived from the authentication mechanism used is subject to the NETCONF Access Control Model (NACM) [RFC6536]. Other protocols that are used to access this YANG module are also required to support similar security mechanisms. Litkowski, et al. Standards Track [Page 154] RFC 8049 YANG Data Model for L3VPN Service Delivery February 2017 The data nodes defined in the "ietf-l3vpn-svc" YANG module MUST be carefully created, read, updated, or deleted as appropriate. The entries in the lists below include customer-proprietary or confidential information; therefore, access to confidential information MUST be limited to authorized clients, and other clients MUST NOT be permitted to access the information. o /l3vpn-svc/vpn-services/vpn-service o /l3vpn-svc/sites/site The data model proposes some security parameters than can be extended via augmentation as part of the customer service request; those parameters are described in Section 6.9. 11. IANA Considerations IANA has assigned a new URI from the "IETF XML Registry" [RFC3688]. URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-l3vpn-svc Registrant Contact: The IESG XML: N/A; the requested URI is an XML namespace.
