Internet-Draft YANG Data Model for Global Trust Anchors June 2018 1. Introduction This document defines a YANG 1.1 [RFC7950] data model for configuring global sets of X.509 certificates and SSH host-keys that can be referenced by other data models for trust. While the SSH host-keys are uniquely for the SSH protocol, the X.509 certificates may be used for multiple uses, including authenticating protocol peers and verifying signatures. This document in compliant with Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA) [RFC8342]. For instance, to support trust anchors installed during manufacturing, it is expected that such data may appear only in <operational>. 1.1. Requirements Language 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. Tree Diagram Notation Tree diagrams used in this document follow the notation defined in [RFC8340]. 2. The Trust Anchors Model 2.1. Tree Diagram The following tree diagram provides an overview of the "ietf-trust- anchors" module. Watsen Expires December 6, 2018 [Page 3]

Internet-Draft YANG Data Model for Global Trust Anchors June 2018 3. Security Considerations The YANG module defined in this document is designed to be accessed via YANG based management protocols, such as NETCONF [RFC6241] and RESTCONF [RFC8040]. Both of these protocols have mandatory-to- implement secure transport layers (e.g., SSH, TLS) with mutual authentication. The NETCONF access control model (NACM) [RFC6536] provides the means to restrict access for particular users to a pre-configured subset of all available protocol operations and content. There are a number of data nodes defined in this YANG module that are writable/creatable/deletable (i.e., config true, which is the default). These data nodes may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. Write operations (e.g., edit-config) to these data nodes without proper protection can have a negative effect on network operations. These are the subtrees and data nodes and their sensitivity/vulnerability: /: The entire data tree defined by this module is sensitive to write operations. For instance, the addition or removal of any trust anchor may dramatically alter the implemented security policy. However, no NACM annotations are applied as the data SHOULD be editable by users other than a designated 'recovery session'. None of the readable data nodes in this YANG module are considered sensitive or vulnerable in network environments. This module does not define any RPCs, actions, or notifications, and thus the security consideration for such is not provided here. 4. IANA Considerations 4.1.
