A Data Model for configuring Domain Name System (DNS) Zone Provisioning
                      on Authoritative Nameservers
            draft-toorop-dnsop-dns-zone-provisioning-yang-00

Abstract

   This document describes a data model for configuring DNS Zone
   provisioning on authoritative nameservers.  This data model only
   includes definitions for configuration of primary and secondary
   relationships.

   The purpose of this document is to enumerate the properties involved
   in managing zone provisioning, for usage in managing zone
   provisioning methods, such as catalog zones or NETCONF.

1.  Introduction

   This document describes a data model for configuring DNS Zone
   provisioning on authoritative nameservers.  The model consists of a
   list of DNS Zones.  Besides the name of the zone, each zone MAY
   contain properties for provisioning of those zones on primary and
   secondary nameservers.

1.1.  Definitions

   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.  Properties for primary nameservers

   The optional properties for primary nameservers are:

   o  "notify-to"

      Which value consists of an IP address (with optional port-number)
      of the secondary nameserver to notify about changes to the zone,

Lexis, et al.          Expires September 10, 2020               [Page 2]
Internet-Draft         yang-dns-zone-provisioning             March 2020

      and an optional TSIG key (See [RFC2845]) with which the NOTIFY
      message [RFC1996] - which is used to send the notification - is
      signed.

      If no port-number is given, port 53 is assumed.

   o  "allow-transfer"

      Which value consist of a subnet in which the IP address of the
      secondary nameserver requesting a transfer has to fall, with an
      optional TSIG key with which the transfer request (either AXFR
      AXFR [RFC5936] or IXFR [RFC1995]) has to be signed and which will
      be used to sign the messages that will convey the complete or
      partial DNS Zone.

1.3.  Properties for primary nameservers

   The optional properties for secondary nameservers are:

   o  "allow-notify"

      Which value consist of a subnet in which the IP address of the
      primary nameserver which is signaling that the DNS Zone has
      changed must fall, and an optional TSIG with which the NOTIFY
      message use MUST be signed.

   o  "transfer-from"

      Which value consists of an IP address (with optional port-number)
      of the primary nameserver from which to transfer the complete or
      partial DNS Zone, with an optional TSIG which MUST be used to send
      the AXFR or IXFR request and with which the transferred Zone data
      MUST be verified.

      If no port-number is given, port 53 is assumed.

4.  IANA Considerations

   This document registers the following namespace URI in the "ns"
   subregistry of the "IETF XML Registry" [RFC3688]:

   o  URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-restconf-subscribed-
      notifications

   o  Registrant Contact: The IESG.

   o  XML: N/A; the requested URI is an XML namespace.

   This document registers the following YANG module in the "YANG Module
   Names" registry [RFC6020]:

   o  Name: ietf-restconf-subscribed-notifications

5.  Security considerations

   Instances of the data model defined in this document contain
   sensitive information with which eavesdroppers can interfere in DNS
   Zone provisioning and potentially even alter DNS Zone content.  Care
   must be taken that instances of this data model are only conveyed
   over secure authenticated and encrypted channels.
