Babel routing protocol B. Stark

Babel Information Model
draft-stark-babel-information-model-01
Abstract
This Babel Information Model can be used to create data models under
various data modeling regimes (e.g., YANG). It allows a Babel
implementation (via a management protocol such as netconf) to report
on its current state and may allow some limited configuration of
protocol constants.

1. Introduction
Babel is a loop-avoiding distance-vector routing protocol defined in
RFC 6126 [RFC6126]. Babel Hashed Message Authentication Code (HMAC)
Cryptographic Authentication, defined in RFC 7298 [RFC7298],
describes a cryptographic authentication mechanism for the Babel
routing protocol. This document describes an information model for
Babel (including HMAC) that can be used to created management
protocol data models (such as a netconf [RFC6241] YANG data model).
Other Babel extensions may be included in this document when they
become working group drafts.
Due to the simplicity of the Babel protocol and the fact that it is
designed to be used in non-professionally administered environments
(such as home networks), most of the information model is focused on
reporting status of the Babel protocol, and very little of that is
considered mandatory to implement (conditional on a management
protocol with Babel support being implemented). Some parameters may
be configurable; however, it is up to the Babel implementation
whether to allow any of these to be configured within its
implementation. Where the implementation does not allow
configuration of these parameters, it may still choose to expose them
as read-only.
