            YANG Groupings for QUIC clients and QUIC servers
             draft-andersson-netconf-quic-client-server-00

Abstract

   This document defines two YANG 1.1 modules to support the
   configuration of QUIC clients and QUIC servers.  The modules include
   basic parameters for configuring QUIC based clients and servers.

1.  Introduction

   This documents defines two YANG 1.1 [RFC7950] modules to support the
   configuration of QUIC clients and QUIC servers (QUIC is defined in
   [RFC9000]), either as standalone or in conjunction with configuration
   of other protocol layers.

2.  The "ietf-quic-client" Module

   This section defines a YANG 1.1 module called "ietf-quic-client".

2.1.  Data model overview

   This section presents an overview of of the "ietf-quic-client" module
   in terms of features and groupings.

2.1.1.  Features

   The module itself does not define any features.  However, in order to
   require TLS 1.3 the following "if-feature" is defined "tlscmn:tls13
   not tlscmn:tls12".  For QUIC TLS requirements see [RFC9001].

   For further details about available features see the "ietf-tls-
   client" and "ietf-udp-client" modules. defined in
   [I-D.ietf-netconf-tls-client-server] and
   [I-D.ietf-netconf-udp-client-server] respectively.

2.1.2.  Groupings

   The "ietf-quic-client" module defines the following "grouping"
   statement:

   *  quic-client-grouping

   This grouping is presented in the following subsection.

2.1.2.1.  The "quic-client-grouping" Grouping

   The following tree diagram [RFC8340] illustrates the "quic-client-
   grouping" grouping:

   module: ietf-quic-client

     grouping quic-client-grouping:
       +---u tlsc:tls-client-grouping
       |       {tlscmn:tls13 and not tlscmn:tls12}?
       +---u udpc:udp-client-grouping

   Comments:

   *  This grouping uses the "tls-client-grouping" grouping discussed in
      [I-D.ietf-netconf-tls-client-server].  Note that QUIC requires
      TLS 1.3 (or later), thus the "if-feature" invariant "tlscmn:tls13
      and not tlscmn:tls12" is defined for this grouping.

   *  This grouping uses the "udp-client-grouping" grouping discussed in
      [I-D.ietf-netconf-udp-client-server].

   This YANG module has normative references to
   [I-D.ietf-netconf-tls-client-server] and
   [I-D.ietf-netconf-udp-client-server].

4.  Security Considerations

   This section follows the template defined in Section 3.7.1 of
   [RFC8407].

   The YANG modules specified in this document defines a schema for data
   that is designed to be accessed via network management protocols such
   as NETCONF [RFC6241] or RESTCONF [RFC8040].  The lowest NETCONF layer
   is the secure transport layer, and the mandatory-to-implement secure
   transport is Secure Shell (SSH) [RFC6242].  The lowest RESTCONF layer
   is HTTPS, and the mandatory-to-implement secure transport is TLS
   [RFC8446].

   The Network Configuration Access Control Model (NACM) [RFC8341]
   provides the means to restrict access for particular NETCONF or
   RESTCONF users to a preconfigured subset of all available NETCONF or
   RESTCONF protocol operations and content.

   The modules presented in this draft does not contain any protocol
   accessible nodes, and thus the security considerations for such are
   not provided here.

   Furthermore, the modules defines groupings, these considerations are
   primarily for the designers of other modules that use these
   groupings.

   Security considerations for the groupings used in the modules are
   discussed in [I-D.ietf-netconf-tls-client-server] and
   [I-D.ietf-netconf-udp-client-server], refer to these documents for
   further details.

   Since the modules does not define any RPCs or actions or
   notifications, and thus the security considerations for such are not
   provided here.

5.  IANA Considerations

   XML Registry [RFC3688] maintained at
