Introduction This document defines a binding for events streamed over the NETCONF protocol [RFC6241] as per [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications]. In addition, as [I-D.ietf-netconf-yang-push] is itself built upon [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications], this document enables a NETCONF client to request and receive updates from a YANG datastore located on a NETCONF server. Gonzalez Prieto, et al. Expires August 12, 2018 [Page 2] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif February 2018 2. Terminology 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 RFC 2119 [RFC2119]. The following terms are defined in [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications]: notification message, stream, publisher, receiver, subscriber, subscription, configured subscription. 3. Interleave Capability To support multiple subscriptions on a single session, a NETCONF publisher MUST support the :interleave capability as defined in [RFC5277]. Such support MUST be indicated by the following capability: "urn:ietf:params:netconf:capability:interleave:1.0". Advertisement of this capability along with support [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications] will indicate that a NETCONF publisher is able to receive, process, and respond to NETCONF requests and [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications] subscription operations on a session with active subscriptions. 4. Mandatory XML, stream and datastore support A NETCONF publisher MUST support XML encoding of RPCs and Notifications. A NETCONF publisher supporting [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications] MUST support the "NETCONF" event stream identified in that draft. A NETCONF publisher supporting [I-D.ietf-netconf-yang-push] MUST support the operational state datastore as defined by [I.D.draft-ietf-netmod-revised-datastores]. 5. Transport connectivity 5.1. Dynamic Subscriptions For dynamic subscriptions, if the NETCONF session involved with the "establish-subscription" terminates, the subscription MUST be deleted. Gonzalez Prieto, et al. Expires August 12, 2018 [Page 3] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif February 2018 5.2. Configured Subscriptions For a configured subscription, there is no guarantee a transport session is currently in place with each associated receiver. In cases where a configured subscription has a receiver in the connecting state and the protocol configured as NETCONF, but no NETCONF transport session exists to that receiver, the publisher MUST initiate a transport session via NETCONF call home [RFC8071], section 4.1 to that receiver. Until NETCONF connectivity is established and a subscription-started state change notification is successfully sent, that receiver MUST remain in a status of either "connecting" or "timeout". If the call home fails because the publisher receives receiver credentials which are subsequently declined per [RFC8071], Section 4.1, step S5 authentication, then that receiver MUST be assigned a "timeout" status. If the call home fails to establish for any other reason, the publisher MUST NOT progress the receiver to the "active" state. Additionally, the publisher SHOULD place the receiver into a "timeout" status after a predetermined number of either failed call home attempts or NETCONF sessions remotely terminated by the receiver. NETCONF Transport session connectivity SHOULD be verified via Section 4.1, step S7. If an active NETCONF session is disconnected but the stop-time of a subscription has not been reached, the publisher MUST restart the call home process and return the receiver to the "connecting" state. 6. Notification Messages Notification messages transported over NETCONF will be identical in format and content to those encoded using one-way operations defined within [RFC5277], section 4. 7. Dynamic Subscriptions and RPC Error Responses Management of dynamic subscriptions occurs via RPCs as defined in [I-D.ietf-netconf-yang-push] and [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications]. When an RPC error occurs, the NETCONF RPC reply MUST include an "rpc-error" element per [RFC6241] with the error information populated as follows: o "error-type" of "application". o "error-tag" of "operation-failed". Gonzalez Prieto, et al. Expires August 12, 2018 [Page 4] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif February 2018 o Optionally, an "error-severity" of "error" (this MAY but does not have to be included). o "error-app-tag" with the value being a string that corresponds to an identity associated with the error, as defined in [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications] section 2.4.6 for general subscriptions, and [I-D.ietf-netconf-yang-push] Appendix A.1, for datastore (YANG-Push) subscriptions. The tag to use depends on the RPC for which the error occurred. Applicable are identities with a base identity of "establish-subscription- error" (for error responses to an establish-subscription request), "modify- subscription-error" (for error responses to a modify- subscription request), "delete-subscription-error" (for error responses to a delete-subscription request), "resynch- subscription-error" (for error responses to resynch-subscription request), or "kill- subscription-error" (for error responses to a kill-subscription request), respectively. o In case of error responses to an establish-subscription or modify- subscription request: optionally, "error-info" containing XML- encoded data with hints regarding parameter settings that might lead to successful requests in the future, per yang-data definitions "establish-subscription-error-datastore" (for error responses to an establish-subscription request) or "modify- subscription-error-datastore (for error responses to a modify- subscription request), respectively. These yang-data that is included in "error-info" SHOULD NOT include the optional leaf "error-reason", as such a leaf would be redundant with the information that is already placed within the error-app-tag. In case of an rpc error as a result of a delete-subscription, or a kill-subscription, or a resynch-subscription request, no error- info needs to be included, as the subscription-id is the only RPC input parameter and no hints regarding RPC input parameters need to be provided. Note that "error-path" does not need to be included with the "rpc- error" element, as subscription errors are generally not associated with nodes in the datastore but with the choice of RPC input parameters. 8. Security Considerations Notification messages (including state change notifications) are never sent before the NETCONF capabilities exchange has completed. If a malicious or buggy NETCONF subscriber sends a number of "establish-subscription" requests, then these subscriptions Gonzalez Prieto, et al. Expires August 12, 2018 [Page 5] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif February 2018 accumulate and may use up system resources. In such a situation, subscriptions MAY be terminated by terminating the underlying NETCONF session. The publisher MAY also suspend or terminate a subset of the active subscriptions on that NETCONF session. The NETCONF Authorization Control Model [RFC6536] SHOULD be used to control and restrict authorization of subscription configuration. 9.

Event Stream Discovery As defined in [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications] an event stream exposes a continuous set of events available for subscription. A NETCONF client can retrieve the list of available event streams from a NETCONF publisher using the "get" operation against the top-level container "/streams" defined in [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications]. The following example illustrates the retrieval of the list of available event streams using the "get" operation. <rpc message-id="101" xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0"> <get> <filter type="subtree"> <streams xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-subscribed-notifications"/> </filter> </get> </rpc> Figure 1: Get streams request After such a request, the NETCONF publisher returns a list of event streams available. A.2. Dynamic Subscriptions Gonzalez Prieto, et al. Expires August 12, 2018 [Page 7] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif February 2018 A.2.1. Establishing Dynamic Subscriptions The following figure shows two successful "establish-subscription" RPC requests as per [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications]. The first request is given a subscription identifier of 22, the second, an identifier of 23. +------------+ +-----------+ | Subscriber | | Publisher | +------------+ +-----------+ | | | Capability Exchange | |<---------------------------->| | | | | | establish-subscription | |----------------------------->| (a) | RPC Reply: OK, id = 22 | |<-----------------------------| (b) | | | notification message (for 22)| |<-----------------------------| | | | | | establish-subscription | |----------------------------->| | RPC Reply: OK, id = 23 | |<-----------------------------| | | | | | notification message (for 22)| |<-----------------------------| | notification message (for 23)| |<-----------------------------| | | Figure 2: Multiple subscriptions over a NETCONF session To provide examples of the information being transported, example messages for interactions (a) and (b) in Figure 2 are detailed below: Gonzalez Prieto, et al. Expires August 12, 2018 [Page 8] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif February 2018 <rpc netconf:message-id="102" xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0"> <establish-subscription xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-subscribed-notifications"> <stream> <name>NETCONF</name> <xpath-filter xmlns:ex="http://example.com/events"> /ex:foo </xpath-filter> </stream> <dscp> 10 </dscp> </establish-subscription> </rpc> Figure 3: establish-subscription request (a) As NETCONF publisher was able to fully satisfy the request (a), the publisher sends the subscription identifier of the accepted subscription within message (b): <rpc-reply message-id="102" xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0"> <identifier xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-subscribed-notifications"> 22 </identifier> </rpc-reply> Figure 4: establish-subscription success (b) If the NETCONF publisher had not been able to fully satisfy the request, or subscriber has no authorization to establish the subscription, the publisher would have sent an RPC error response. For instance, if the "dscp" value of 10 asserted by the subscriber in Figure 3 proved unacceptable, the publisher may have returned: Gonzalez Prieto, et al. Expires August 12, 2018 [Page 9] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif February 2018 <rpc-reply message-id="102" xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0"> <rpc-error> <error-type>application</error-type> <error-tag>operation-failed</error-tag> <error-severity>error</error-severity> <error-app-tag> dscp-unavailable </error-app-tag> <error-info> <establish-subscription-error-datastore xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-subscribed-notifications"> <dscp> 100 </dscp> </error-info> </rpc-error> </rpc-reply> Figure 5: an unsuccessful establish subscription The subscriber can use this information in future attempts to establish a subscription. A.2.2. Modifying Dynamic Subscriptions An existing subscription may be modified. The following exchange shows a negotiation of such a modification via several exchanges between a subscriber and a publisher. This negotiation consists of a failed RPC modification request/response, followed by a successful one. Gonzalez Prieto, et al. Expires August 12, 2018 [Page 10] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif February 2018 +------------+ +-----------+ | Subscriber | | Publisher | +------------+ +-----------+ | | | notification message (for 23)| |<-----------------------------| | | | modify-subscription (id = 23)| |----------------------------->| (c) | RPC error (with hint) | |<-----------------------------| (d) | | | modify-subscription (id = 23)| |----------------------------->| | RPC Reply: OK | |<-----------------------------| | | | notification message (for 23)| |<-----------------------------| | | Figure 6: Interaction model for successful subscription modification If the subscription being modified in Figure 6 is a datastore subscription as per [I-D.ietf-netconf-yang-push], the modification request made in (c) may look like that shown in Figure 7. As can be seen, the modifications being attempted are the application of a new xpath filter as well as the setting of a new periodic time interval. Gonzalez Prieto, et al. Expires August 12, 2018 [Page 11] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif February 2018 <rpc message-id="303" xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0"> <modify-subscription xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-subscribed-notifications" xmlns:yp="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-yang-push"> <yp:datastore> <yp:xpath-filter xmlns="http://example.com/datastore"> /interfaces-state/interface/oper-status </yp:xpath-filter> <yp:periodic> <yp:period>500</yp:period> </yp:periodic> </yp:datastore> <identifier> 23 </identifier> </modify-subscription> </rpc> Figure 7: Subscription modification request (c) If the NETCONF publisher can satisfy both changes, the publisher sends a positive result for the RPC. If the NETCONF publisher cannot satisfy either of the proposed changes, the publisher sends an RPC error response (d). The following is an example RPC error response for (d) which includes a hint. This hint is an alternative time period value which might have resulted in a successful modification: Gonzalez Prieto, et al. Expires August 12, 2018 [Page 12] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif February 2018 <rpc-reply message-id="303" xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0"> <rpc-error> <error-type>application</error-type> <error-tag>operation-failed</error-tag> <error-severity>error</error-severity> <error-app-tag> period-unsupported </error-message> <error-info xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-yang-push"> <modify-subscription-error-datastore> <period-hint> 3000 </period-hint> </modify-subscription-error-datastore> </error-info> </rpc-error> </rpc-reply> Figure 8: Modify subscription failure with Hint (d) A.2.3. Deleting Dynamic Subscriptions The following demonstrates deleting a subscription. <rpc message-id="103" xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0"> <delete-subscription xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-subscribed-notifications"> <identifier>22</identifier> </delete-subscription> </rpc> Figure 9: Delete subscription If the NETCONF publisher can satisfy the request, the publisher replies with success to the RPC request. If the NETCONF publisher cannot satisfy the request, the publisher sends an error-rpc element indicating the modification didn't work. Figure 10 shows a valid response for existing valid subscription identifier, but that subscription identifier was created on a different NETCONF transport session: Gonzalez Prieto, et al. Expires August 12, 2018 [Page 13] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif February 2018 <rpc-reply message-id="103" xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0"> <rpc-error> <error-type>application</error-type> <error-tag>operation-failed</error-tag> <error-severity>error</error-severity> <error-app-tag> no-such-subscription </error-app-tag> </rpc-error> </rpc-reply> Figure 10: Unsuccessful delete subscription A.3. Configured Subscriptions Configured subscriptions may be established, modified, and deleted using configuration operations against the top-level subtree of [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications] or [I-D.ietf-netconf-yang-push]. In this section, we present examples of how to manage the configuration subscriptions using a NETCONF client. A.3.1. Creating Configured Subscriptions For subscription creation, a NETCONF client may send: Gonzalez Prieto, et al. Expires August 12, 2018 [Page 14] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif February 2018 <rpc message-id="201" xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0" xmlns:nc="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0"> <edit-config> <target> <running/> </target> <subscriptions xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-subscribed-notifications"> <subscription> <identifier>22</identifier> <encoding>encode-xml</encoding> <stream> <name>NETCONF</name> <receiver> <address>1.2.3.4</address> <port>1234</port> </receiver> </stream> </subscription> </subscriptions> </edit-config> </rpc> Figure 11: Create a configured subscription If the request is accepted, the publisher will indicate this. If the request is not accepted because the publisher cannot serve it, no configuration is changed. In this case the publisher may reply: <rpc-reply message-id="201" xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0"> <rpc-error> <error-type>application</error-type> <error-tag>resource-denied</error-tag> <error-severity>error</error-severity> <error-message xml:lang="en"> Temporarily the publisher cannot serve this subscription due to the current workload. </error-message> </rpc-error> </rpc-reply> Figure 12: Response to a failed configured subscription establishment After a subscription has been created, NETCONF connectivity to each receiver's IP address and port will be established if it does not already exist. This will be accomplished via [RFC8071]. Gonzalez Prieto, et al. Expires August 12, 2018 [Page 15] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif February 2018 The following figure shows the interaction model for the successful creation of a configured subscription. +----------+ +-----------+ +---------+ |Config Ops| | Publisher | | 1.2.3.4 | +----------+ +-----------+ +---------+ | | | | Capability Exchange | | |<-------------------------->| | | | | | | | | Edit-config | | |--------------------------->| | | RPC Reply: OK | | |<---------------------------| | | | Call Home | | |<-------------->| | | | | | subscription- | | | started | | |--------------->| | | | | | notification | | | message | | |--------------->| Figure 13: Interaction model for configured subscription establishment A.3.2. Modifying Configured Subscriptions Configured subscriptions can be modified using configuration operations against the top-level container "/subscriptions". For example, the subscription established in the previous section could be modified as follows, here a adding a second receiver: Gonzalez Prieto, et al. Expires August 12, 2018 [Page 16] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif February 2018 <rpc message-id="202" xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0" xmlns:nc="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0"> <edit-config> <target> <running/> </target> <subscriptions xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-subscribed-notifications"> <subscription> <identifier> 1922 </identifier> <receiver> <address> 1.2.3.5 </address> <port> 1234 </port> </receiver> </subscription> </subscriptions> </edit-config> </rpc> Figure 14: Modify configured subscription If the request is accepted, the publisher will indicate success. The result is that the interaction model described in Figure 13 may be extended as follows. Gonzalez Prieto, et al. Expires August 12, 2018 [Page 17] Internet-Draft NETCONF-notif February 2018 +----------+ +-----------+ +---------+ +---------+ |Config Ops| | Publisher | | 1.2.3.4 | | 1.2.3.5 | +----------+ +-----------+ +---------+ +---------+ | | notification | | | | message | | | |--------------->| | | Edit-config | | | |--------------------------->| | | | RPC Reply: OK | | | |<---------------------------| | | | | subscription- | | | | started | | | |---------------------------->| | | | | | | notification | | | | message | | | |--------------->| | | |---------------------------->| | | | | Figure 15: Interaction model for configured subscription modification Note in the above that in the specific example above, modifying a configured subscription actually resulted in "subscription-started" notification. And because of an existing NETCONF session, no additional call home was needed. Also note that if the edit of the configuration had impacted the filter, a separate modify-subscription would have been required for the original receiver. A.3.3. Deleting Configured Subscriptions Configured subscriptions can be deleted using configuration operations against the top-level container "/subscriptions". Deleting the subscription above would result in the following flow impacting all active receivers. Gonzalez Prieto, et al.

Subscription State Notifications A publisher will send subscription state notifications according to the definitions within [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications]).
