A YANG Data Model for Multipath Traffic Engineering Directed Acyclic
Graph (MPTED) Tunnels and Junctions
draft-beeram-teas-yang-mpted-01
Abstract
This document defines a YANG data model for representing, retrieving,
and manipulating Multipath Traffic Engineering Directed Acyclic Graph
(MPTED) Tunnels and Junctions. The model includes two YANG modules,
one for managing MPTED Tunnels on an MPTED tunnel originator node and
the other for managing MPTED Junctions on an MPTED junction node.

1. Introduction
The notions of a Multipath Traffic Engineering Directed Acyclic Graph
(MPTED) tunnel and an MPTED junction are introduced in
[I-D.draft-kompella-teas-mpte]. An MPTED tunnel is a Traffic
Engineering (TE) construct that contains a constrained set of paths
representing an optimized Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) from one or
more ingresses to one or more egresses. The paths that make up an
MPTED tunnel traverse a set of junction nodes. An MPTED junction
refers to the construct associated with the MPTED tunnel at each
junction node and constitutes a set of previous-hops and a set of
next-hops over which traffic is load-balanced in a weighted fashion.
Provisioning an MPTED tunnel in a TE network involves provisioning
MPTED junction state at each junction node.
An MPTED tunnel is instantiated and managed on a tunnel originator
node, while an MPTED junction is instantiated and managed on a
junction node. A tunnel originator node MAY also be a junction node.
This document defines a YANG data model for representing, retrieving,
and manipulating Multipath Traffic Engineering Directed Acyclic Graph
(MPTED) Tunnels and Junctions. The model includes two YANG modules,
one for managing MPTED Tunnels on a tunnel originator node and the
other for managing MPTED Junctions on a junction node.

Internet-Draft MPTED YANG Model October 2025
The YANG modules discussed in this version of the document are scoped
to MPLS MPTED tunnels and junctions with signaled label switching.
The coverage for other types of MPTED tunnels and junctions will be
added in later versions.
1.1. Requirements Language
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
"OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in
BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all
capitals, as shown here.
1.2. Terminology
The terminology for describing YANG data models is found in
[RFC7950].
The reader is expected to be familiar with the terminology used in
[I-D.draft-kompella-teas-mpte].
1.3. Tree Diagram
A simplified graphical representation of the data model is used in
Appendix A and Appendix B of this document. The meaning of the
symbols in these diagrams is defined in [RFC8340].
2. MPTED YANG Module
2.1. Model Structure
The high-level model structure for MPTED tunnels defined by this
document is as shown below:

Figure 1: MPTED YANG Structure
The top-level 'te' container is [I-D.draft-ietf-teas-yang-te] is
augmented with a set of MPTED tunnels. The 'mpted-tunnels' container
carries a list of tunnel entries. Each tunnel entry includes the set
of parameters required to produce a list of junctions that need to
programmed in the network. Each tunnel entry may have more than one
instance associated with it, where a unique version identifies each
instance. Each tunnel instance has a list of junctions associated
with it. Each junction entry may have more than one instance (jct-
instance) associated with it, where a unique junction-version
identifies each instance. Each junction instance entry consists of
the set of previous-hops ('phops' container) and next-hops ('nhops'
container) associated with the given junction version.

The top-level 'te' container is [I-D.draft-ietf-teas-yang-te] is
augmented with a set of MPTED junctions. The 'mpted-junctions'
container carries a list of junction entries. Each junction entry
may be associated with more than one junction instance. And each
junction instance includes information about the associated set of
previous-hops ('phops' container) and next-hops ('nhops' container)
for the given junction version.

Internet-Draft MPTED YANG Model October 2025
4. Security Considerations
The YANG module specified in this document defines a schema for data
that is designed to be accessed via network management protocols such
as NETCONF [RFC6241] or RESTCONF [RFC8040]. The lowest NETCONF layer
is the secure transport layer, and the mandatory-to-implement secure
transport is Secure Shell (SSH) [RFC6242]. The lowest RESTCONF layer
is HTTPS, and the mandatory-to-implement secure transport is TLS
[RFC8446].
The Network Configuration Access Control Model (NACM) [RFC8341]
provides the means to restrict access for particular NETCONF or
RESTCONF users to a preconfigured subset of all available NETCONF or
RESTCONF protocol operations and content.
The data nodes defined in these YANG modules that are
writable/creatable/deletable (i.e., config true, which is the
default) may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network
environments. Write operations (e.g., edit-config) to these data
nodes without proper protection can have a negative effect on network
operations. These are the subtrees and data nodes and their
sensitivity/vulnerability:
"/te/mpted-tunnels": Unauthorized access to this list could influence
how traffic is forwarded through the network.
"/te/mpted-junctions": Unauthorized access to this list could
influence how traffic is forwarded on a junction node.
The readable data nodes in these YANG module may be considered
sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. It is thus
important to control read access (e.g., via get, get-config, or
notification) to these data nodes. These are the subtrees and data
nodes and their sensitivity/vulnerability:
"/te/mpted-tunnels/tunnel/junctions": Unauthorized read access to
this list can disclose how traffic is load-balanced on each junction
node.
5. IANA Considerations
This document requests IANA to register the following URIs in the
"ns" subregistry within the "IETF XML Registry" [RFC3688].
