1.  Introduction

   This document defines two NMDA compatible [RFC8342] YANG 1.1
   [RFC7950] modules for the management of network interfaces.  It
   defines various augmentations to the generic interfaces data model
   [RFC8343] to support configuration of lower layer interface
   properties that are common across many types of network interface.

   One of the aims of this document is to provide a standard definition
   for these configuration items regardless of the underlying interface
   type.  For example, a definition for configuring or reading the MAC
   address associated with an interface is provided that can be used for
   any interface type that uses Ethernet framing.

   Several of the augmentations defined here are not backed by any
   formal standard specification.  Instead, they are for features that
   are commonly implemented in equivalent ways by multiple independent
   network equipment vendors.  The aim of this document is to define
   common paths and leaves for the configuration of these equivalent
   features in a uniform way, making it easier for users of the YANG
   model to access these features in a vendor independent way.  Where
   necessary, a description of the expected behavior is also provided
   with the aim of ensuring vendors implementations are consistent with
   the specified behaviour.

   Given that the modules contain a collection of discrete features with
   the common theme that they generically apply to interfaces, it is
   plausible that not all implementors of the YANG module will decide to
   support all features.  Hence separate feature keywords are defined
   for each logically discrete feature to allow implementors the
   flexibility to choose which specific parts of the model they support.

   The augmentations are split into two separate YANG modules that each
   focus on a particular area of functionality.  The two YANG modules
   defined in this document are:

      ietf-if-extensions.yang - Defines extensions to the IETF interface
      data model to support common configuration data nodes.

      ietf-if-ethernet-like.yang - Defines a module for any
      configuration and operational data nodes that are common across
      interfaces that use Ethernet framing.

2.  Interface Extensions Module

   The Interfaces Extensions YANG module provides some basic extensions
   to the IETF interfaces YANG module.

   The module provides:

   o  A carrier delay feature used to provide control over short lived
      link state flaps.

   o  An interface link state dampening feature that is used to provide
      control over longer lived link state flaps.

   o  An encapsulation container and extensible choice statement for use
      by any interface types that allow for configurable L2
      encapsulations.

   o  A loopback configuration leaf that is primarily aimed at loopback
      at the physical layer.

   o  MTU configuration leaves applicable to all packet/frame based
      interfaces.

   o  A forwarding mode leaf to indicate the OSI layer at which the
      interface handles traffic.

   o  A generic "sub-interface" identity that an interface identity
      definition can derive from if it defines a sub-interface.

   o  A parent interface leaf useable for all types of sub-interface
      that are children of parent interfaces.

               {sub-interfaces}?


2.1.  Carrier Delay

   The carrier delay feature augments the IETF interfaces data model
   with configuration for a simple algorithm that is used, generally on
   physical interfaces, to suppress short transient changes in the
   interface link state.  It can be used in conjunction with the
   dampening feature described in Section 2.2 to provide effective
   control of unstable links and unwanted state transitions.

   The principle of the carrier delay feature is to use a short per
   interface timer to ensure that any interface link state transition
   that occurs and reverts back within the specified time interval is
   entirely suppressed without providing any signalling to any upper
   layer protocols that the state transition has occurred.  E.g. in the
   case that the link state transition is suppressed then there is no
   change of the /if:interfaces/if:interface/oper-status or
   /if:interfaces/if:interfaces/last-change leaves for the interface
   that the feature is operating on.  One obvious side effect of using

Internet-Draft          Interface Extensions YANG              July 2020


   this feature that is that any state transition will always be delayed
   by the specified time interval.

   The configuration allows for separate timer values to be used in the
   suppression of down->up->down link transitions vs up->down->up link
   transitions.

   The carrier delay down timer leaf specifies the amount of time that
   an interface that is currently in link up state must be continuously
   down before the down state change is reported to higher level
   protocols.  Use of this timer can cause traffic to be black holed for
   the configured value and delay reconvergence after link failures,
   therefore its use is normally restricted to cases where it is
   necessary to allow enough time for another protection mechanism (such
   as an optical layer automatic protection system) to take effect.

   The carrier delay up timer leaf specifies the amount of time that an
   interface that is currently in link down state must be continuously
   up before the down->up link state transition is reported to higher
   level protocols.  This timer is generally useful as a debounce
   mechanism to ensure that a link is relatively stable before being
   brought into service.  It can also be used effectively to limit the
   frequency at which link state transition events may occur.  The
   default value for this leaf is determined by the underlying network
   device.

2.2.  Dampening

   The dampening feature introduces a configurable exponential decay
   mechanism to suppress the effects of excessive interface link state
   flapping.  This feature allows the network operator to configure a
   device to automatically identify and selectively dampen a local
   interface which is flapping.  Dampening an interface keeps the
   interface operationally down until the interface stops flapping and
   becomes stable.  Configuring the dampening feature can improve
   convergence times and stability throughout the network by isolating
   failures so that disturbances are not propagated, which reduces the
   utilization of system processing resources by other devices in the
   network and improves overall network stability.

   The basic algorithm uses a counter that is increased by 1000 units
   every time the underlying interface link state changes from up to
   down.  If the counter increases above the suppress threshold then the
   interface is kept down (and out of service) until either the maximum
   suppression time is reached, or the counter has reduced below the
   reuse threshold.  The half-life period determines that rate at which
   the counter is periodically reduced by half.

Internet-Draft          Interface Extensions YANG              July 2020


2.2.1.  Suppress Threshold

   The suppress threshold is the value of the accumulated penalty that
   triggers the device to dampen a flapping interface.  The flapping
   interface is identified by the device and assigned a penalty for each
   up to down link state change, but the interface is not automatically
   dampened.  The device tracks the penalties that a flapping interface
   accumulates.  When the accumulated penalty reaches or exceeds the
   suppress threshold, the interface is placed in a suppressed state.

2.2.2.  Half-Life Period

   The half-life period determines how fast the accumulated penalties
   can decay exponentially.  The accumulated penalty decays at a rate
   that causes its value to be reduced by half after each half-life
   period.

2.2.3.  Reuse Threshold

   If, after one or more half-life periods, the accumulated penalty
   decreases below the reuse threshold and the underlying interface link
   state is up then the interface is taken out of suppressed state and
   is allowed to go up.

2.2.4.  Maximum Suppress Time

   The maximum suppress time represents the maximum amount of time an
   interface can remain dampened when a new penalty is assigned to an
   interface.  The default of the maximum suppress timer is four times
   the half-life period.  The maximum value of the accumulated penalty
   is calculated using the maximum suppress time, reuse threshold and
   half-life period.

2.3.  Encapsulation

   The encapsulation container holds a choice node that is to be
   augmented with datalink layer specific encapsulations, such as HDLC,
   PPP, or sub-interface 802.1Q tag match encapsulations.  The use of a
   choice statement ensures that an interface can only have a single
   datalink layer protocol configured.

   The different encapsulations themselves are defined in separate YANG
   modules defined in other documents that augument the encapsulation
   choice statement.  For example the Ethernet specific basic 'dot1q-
   vlan' encapsulation is defined in ietf-if-l3-vlan.yang and the
   'flexible' encapsulation is defined in ietf-flexible-
   encapsulation.yang, both modules from
   [I-D.ietf-netmod-sub-intf-vlan-model].

Internet-Draft          Interface Extensions YANG              July 2020


2.4.  Loopback

   The loopback configuration leaf allows any physical interface to be
   configured to be in one of the possible following physical loopback
   modes, i.e. internal loopback, line loopback, or use of an external
   loopback connector.  The use of YANG identities allows for the model
   to be extended with other modes of loopback if required.

   The following loopback modes are defined:

   o  Internal loopback - All egress traffic on the interface is
      internally looped back within the interface to be received on the
      ingress path.

   o  Line loopback - All ingress traffic received on the interface is
      internally looped back within the interface to the egress path.

   o  Loopback Connector - The interface has a physical loopback
      connector attached that loops all egress traffic back into the
      interface's ingress path, with equivalent semantics to internal
      loopback.

2.5.  Maximum frame size

   A maximum frame size configuration leaf (max-frame-size) is provided
   to specify the maximum size of a layer 2 frame that may be
   transmitted or received on an interface.  The value includes the
   overhead of any layer 2 header, the maximum length of the payload,
   and any frame check sequence (FCS) bytes.  If configured, the max-
   frame-size leaf on an interface also restricts the max-frame-size of
   any child sub-interfaces, and the available MTU for protocols.

2.6.  Sub-interface

   The sub-interface feature specifies the minimal leaves required to
   define a child interface that is parented to another interface.

   A sub-interface is a logical interface that handles a subset of the
   traffic on the parent interface.  Separate configuration leaves are
   used to classify the subset of ingress traffic received on the parent
   interface to be processed in the context of a given sub-interface.
   All egress traffic processed on a sub-interface is given to the
   parent interface for transmission.  Otherwise, a sub-interface is
   like any other interface in /if:interfaces and supports the standard
   interface features and configuration.

   For some vendor specific interface naming conventions the name of the
   child interface is sufficient to determine the parent interface,



Wilton, et al.          Expires January 30, 2021                [Page 8]


Internet-Draft          Interface Extensions YANG              July 2020


   which implies that the child interface can never be reparented to a
   different parent interface after it has been created without deleting
   the existing sub-interface and recreating a new sub-interface.  Even
   in this case it is useful to have a well defined leaf to cleanly
   identify the parent interface.

   The model also allows for arbitrarily named sub-interfaces by having
   an explicit parent-interface leaf define the child -> parent
   relationship.  In this naming scenario it is also possible for
   implementations to allow for logical interfaces to be reparented to
   new parent interfaces without needing the sub-interface to be
   destroyed and recreated.

2.7.  Forwarding Mode

   The forwarding mode leaf provides additional information as to what
   mode or layer an interface is logically operating and forwarding
   traffic at.  The implication of this leaf is that for traffic
   forwarded at a given layer that any headers for lower layers are
   stripped off before the packet is forwarded at the given layer.
   Conversely, on egress any lower layer headers must be added to the
   packet before it is transmitted out of the interface.

   The following forwarding modes are defined:

   o  Physical - Traffic is being forwarded at the physical layer.  This
      includes DWDM or OTN based switching.

   o  Data-link - Layer 2 based forwarding, such as Ethernet/VLAN based
      switching, or L2VPN services.

   o  Network - Network layer based forwarding, such as IP, MPLS, or
      L3VPNs.

3.  Interfaces Ethernet-Like Module

   The Interfaces Ethernet-Like Module is a small module that contains
   all configuration and operational data that is common across
   interface types that use Ethernet framing as their datalink layer
   encapsulation.

   This module currently contains leaves for the configuration and
   reporting of the operational MAC address and the burnt-in MAC address
   (BIA) associated with any interface using Ethernet framing.

6.  Examples

   The following sections give some examples of how different parts of
   the YANG modules could be used.  Examples are not given for the more
   trivial configuration, or for sub-interfaces, for which examples are
   contained in [I-D.ietf-netmod-sub-intf-vlan-model].

6.1.  Carrier delay configuration

   The following example shows how the operational state datastore could
   look like for an Ethernet interface without any carrier delay
   configuration.  The down leaf value of 0 indicates that link down
   events as always propagated to high layers immediately, but an up
   leaf value of 50 indicates that the interface must be up and stable
   for at least 50 msecs before the interface is reported as being up to
   the high layers.


   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
   <interfaces
    xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-interfaces"
    xmlns:ianaift="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:iana-if-type"
   xmlns:if-ext="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-if-extensions">
     <interface>
       <name>eth0</name>
       <type>ianaift:ethernetCsmacd</type>
       <if-ext:carrier-delay>
         <if-ext:down>0</if-ext:down>
         <if-ext:up>50</if-ext:up>
       </if-ext:carrier-delay>
     </interface>
   </interfaces>


   The following example shows explicit carrier delay up and down values
   have been configured.  A 50 msec down leaf value has been used to
   potentially allow optical protection to recover the link before the
   higher layer protocol state is flapped.  A 1 second (1000
   milliseconds) up leaf value has been used to ensure that the link is
   always reasonably stable before allowing traffic to be carried over
   it.  This also has the benefit of greatly reducing the rate at which
   higher layer protocol state flaps could occur.

         </if-ext:carrier-delay>
       </interface>
     </interfaces>
   </config>


6.2.  Dampening configuration

   The following example shows what the operational state datastore may
   look like for an interface configured with interface dampening.  The
   'suppressed' leaf indicates that the interface is currently
   suppressed (i.e. down) because the 'penalty' is greater than the
   'suppress' leaf threshold.  The 'time-remaining' leaf indicates that
   the interface will remain suppressed for another 103 seconds before
   the 'penalty' is below the 'reuse' leaf value and the interface is
   allowed to go back up again.

     </interface>
   </interfaces>


6.3.  MAC address configuration

   The following example shows how the operational state datastore could
   look like for an Ethernet interface without an explicit MAC address
   configured.  The mac-address leaf always reports the actual
   operational MAC address that is in use.  The bia-mac-address leaf
   always reports the default MAC address assigned to the hardware.


   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

           <bia-mac-address>00:00:5E:00:53:30</bia-mac-address>
         </ethernet-like>
       </interface>
     </interfaces>

   The following example shows the intended configuration for interface
   eth0 with an explicit MAC address configured.


   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
   <config xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0">
     <interfaces
       xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-interfaces"
       xmlns:ianaift="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:iana-if-type">

         <ethernet-like
           xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-if-ethernet-like">

         </ethernet-like>
       </interface>
     </interfaces>
   </config>


   After the MAC address configuration has been successfully applied,
   the operational state datastore reporting the interface MAC address
   properties would contain the following, with the mac-address leaf
   updated to match the configured value, but the bia-mac-address leaf
   retaining the same value - which should never change.

10.  Security Considerations

   The YANG module defined in this memo is designed to be accessed via
   the NETCONF protocol RFC 6241 [RFC6241].  The lowest NETCONF layer is
   the secure transport layer and the mandatory to implement secure
   transport is SSH RFC 6242 [RFC6242].  The NETCONF access control
   model RFC 6536 [RFC6536] provides the means to restrict access for
   particular NETCONF users to a pre-configured subset of all available
   NETCONF protocol operations and content.

   There are a number of data nodes defined in this YANG module which
   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:

10.1.  ietf-if-extensions.yang

   The ietf-if-extensions YANG module contains various configuration
   leaves that affect the behavior of interfaces.  Modifying these
   leaves can cause an interface to go down, or become unreliable, or to
   drop traffic forwarded over it.  More specific details of the
   possible failure modes are given below.

   The following leaf could cause the interface to go down and stop
   processing any ingress or egress traffic on the interface.  It could
   also cause broadcast traffic storms.

   o  /if:interfaces/if:interface/loopback

   The following leaves could cause instabilities at the interface link
   layer, and cause unwanted higher layer routing path changes if the
   leaves are modified, although they would generally only affect a
   device that had some underlying link stability issues:

   o  /if:interfaces/if:interface/carrier-delay/down

   o  /if:interfaces/if:interface/carrier-delay/up

   o  /if:interfaces/if:interface/dampening/half-life

   o  /if:interfaces/if:interface/dampening/reuse

   o  /if:interfaces/if:interface/dampening/suppress

   o  /if:interfaces/if:interface/dampening/max-suppress-time

   The following leaves could cause traffic loss on the interface
   because the received or transmitted frames do not comply with the
   frame matching criteria on the interface and hence would be dropped:

   o  /if:interfaces/if:interface/encapsulation

   o  /if:interfaces/if:interface/max-frame-size

   o  /if:interfaces/if:interface/forwarding-mode

   Changing the parent-interface leaf could cause all traffic on the
   affected interface to be dropped.  The affected leaf is:

   o  /if:interfaces/if:interface/parent-interface

10.2.  ietf-if-ethernet-like.yang

   Generally, the configuration nodes in the ietf-if-ethernet-like YANG
   module are concerned with configuration that is common across all
   types of Ethernet-like interfaces.  The module currently only
   contains a node for configuring the operational MAC address to use on
   an interface.  Adding/modifying/deleting this leaf has the potential
   risk of causing protocol instability, excessive protocol traffic, and
   general traffic loss, particularly if the configuration change caused
   a duplicate MAC address to be present on the local network .  The
   following leaf is affected:

   o  interfaces/interface/ethernet-like/mac-address
