1.  Introduction

   A transport network is a server-layer network designed to provide
   connectivity services for a client-layer network to carry the client
   traffic transparently across the server-layer network resources.  The
   tunnel model in Traffic-Engineered network has been defined in both
   generic way and technology-specific way.  The generic model, which is
   the base TE tunnel YANG model, can be found at
   [I-D.ietf-teas-yang-te].  Technology-specific models, such as OTN/
   WSON tunnel model, have also been defined in
   [I-D.ietf-ccamp-otn-tunnel-model] and
   [I-D.ietf-ccamp-wson-tunnel-model] respectively.  Corresponding
   tunnel on client-layer is also required, to have a complete topology
   view from the perspective of network controllers.

   This document defines a data model of all client-layer tunnel, using
   YANG language defined in [RFC7950].  The model is augmenting the
   generic TE tunnel model, and can be used by applications exposing to

Internet-Draft          Client Tunnel YANG Model              March 2022

   a network controller via a REST interface.  Furthermore, it can be
   used by an application to describe the client tunnel that constructed
   above the server-layer network.  It is also worth noting that the
   client layer network will only need the tunnel model when there is a
   demand for switching techniques, such as Carrier Ethernet and MPLS-
   TP.  The transparent signals do not need this model.

2.  Terminology and Notations

   A simplified graphical representation of the data model is used in
   this document.  The meaning of the symbols in the YANG data tree
   presented later in this document is defined in [RFC8340].  They are
   provided below for reference.

   *  Brackets "[" and "]" enclose list keys.

   *  Abbreviations before data node names: "rw" means configuration
      (read-write) and "ro" state data (read-only).

   *  Symbols after data node names: "?" means an optional node, "!"
      means a presence container, and "*" denotes a list and leaf-list.

   *  Parentheses enclose choice and case nodes, and case nodes are also
      marked with a colon (":").

   *  Ellipsis ("...") stands for contents of subtrees that are not
      shown.

4.2.  Other Client-layer Tunnel YANG Code

   TBD.

5.  Considerations and Open Issue

   Editor Notes: This section is used to note temporary discussion/
   conclusion that to be fixed in the future version, and will be
   removed before publication.  This is a part of L2 work, need to
   discuss how to go with other L2 network models.  The expectation is
   to include all potential L2 TE part in this work.

6.  IANA Considerations

   TBD.

7.  Manageability Considerations

   TBD.

8.  Security Considerations

   The data following the model defined in this document is exchanged
   via, for example, the interface between an orchestrator and a
   transport network controller.  The security concerns mentioned in
   [I-D.ietf-teas-yang-te] also applies to this document.

   The YANG module defined in this document can be accessed via the
   RESTCONF protocol defined in [RFC8040], or maybe via the NETCONF
   protocol [RFC6241].
