Internet-Draft           Common YANG Data Types            February 2013

1.  Introduction

   YANG [RFC6020] is a data modeling language used to model
   configuration and state data manipulated by the Network Configuration
   Protocol (NETCONF) [RFC6241].  The YANG language supports a small set
   of built-in data types and provides mechanisms to derive other types
   from the built-in types.

   This document introduces a collection of common data types derived
   from the built-in YANG data types.  The derived types are designed to
   be applicable for modeling all areas of management information.  The
   definitions are organized in several YANG modules.  The
   "ietf-yang-types" module contains generally useful data types.  The
   "ietf-inet-types" module contains definitions that are relevant for
   the Internet protocol suite.

   This version of the document adds new type definitions to the YANG
   modules and obsoletes [RFC6021].  For the further details, see the
   revision statement of the YANG modules.

   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].

2.  Overview

   This section provides a short overview of the types defined in
   subsequent sections and their equivalent Structure of Management
   Information Version 2 (SMIv2) [RFC2578][RFC2579] data types.  A YANG
   data type is equivalent to an SMIv2 data type if the data types have
   the same set of values and the semantics of the values are
   equivalent.

   Table 1 lists the types defined in the ietf-yang-types YANG module
   and the corresponding SMIv2 types (- indicates there is no
   corresponding SMIv2 type).

         schema nodes using the domain-name type are recommended to
         adhere to this stricter standard to ensure interoperability.

         The encoding of DNS names in the DNS protocol is limited

         prefixed by a length bytes and there is a trailing NULL
         byte, only 253 characters can appear in the textual dotted
         notation.

         The description clause of schema nodes using the domain-name
         type MUST describe when and how these names are resolved to
         IP addresses.  Note that the resolution of a domain-name value
         may require to query multiple DNS records (e.g., A for IPv4
         and AAAA for IPv6).  The order of the resolution process and
         which DNS record takes precedence can either be defined
         explicitely or it may depend on the configuration of the
         resolver.

         Domain-name values use the US-ASCII encoding.  Their canonical
