A YANG Data Model for Routing Management
draft-ietf-netmod-routing-cfg-20
Abstract
This document contains a specification of three YANG modules.
Together they form the core routing data model which serves as a
framework for configuring and managing a routing subsystem. It is
expected that these modules will be augmented by additional YANG
modules defining data models for routing protocols, route filters and
other functions. The core routing data model provides common
building blocks for such extensions - routing instances, routes,
routing information bases (RIB), and routing protocols.

1. Introduction
This document contains a specification of the following YANG modules:
o Module "ietf-routing" provides generic components of a routing
data model.
o Module "ietf-ipv4-unicast-routing" augments the "ietf-routing"
module with additional data specific to IPv4 unicast.
o Module "ietf-ipv6-unicast-routing" augments the "ietf-routing"
module with additional data specific to IPv6 unicast. It also
augments the "ietf-interfaces" module [RFC7223] with IPv6 router
configuration variables required by [RFC4861].
These modules together define the so-called core routing data model,
which is intended as a basis for future data model development
covering more sophisticated routing systems. While these three
modules can be directly used for simple IP devices with static
routing (see Appendix B), their main purpose is to provide essential
building blocks for more complicated data models involving multiple
routing protocols, multicast routing, additional address families,
and advanced functions such as route filtering or policy routing. To
this end, it is expected that the core routing data model will be
augmented by numerous modules developed by other IETF working groups.
2. Terminology and Notation
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].

routes together with other information. See Section 5.3 for
details.
system-controlled entry: An entry of a list in state data ("config
false") that is created by the system independently of what has
been explicitly configured. See Section 4.1 for details.
user-controlled entry: An entry of a list in state data ("config
false") that is created and deleted as a direct consequence of
certain configuration changes. See Section 4.1 for details.
2.2. Tree Diagrams
A simplified graphical representation of the complete data tree is
presented in Appendix A, and similar diagrams of its various subtrees
appear in the main text.
o Brackets "[" and "]" enclose list keys.
o Curly braces "{" and "}" contain names of optional features that
make the corresponding node conditional.
o Abbreviations before data node names: "rw" means configuration
(read-write), "ro" state data (read-only), "-x" RPC operations,
and "-n" notifications.
o Symbols after data node names: "?" means an optional node, "!" a
container with presence, and "*" denotes a "list" or "leaf-list".
o Parentheses enclose choice and case nodes, and case nodes are also
marked with a colon (":").
o Ellipsis ("...") stands for contents of subtrees that are not
shown.
2.3. Prefixes in Data Node Names
In this document, names of data nodes, RPC operations and other data
model objects are often used without a prefix, as long as it is clear
from the context in which YANG module each name is defined.
Otherwise, names are prefixed using the standard prefix associated
with the corresponding YANG module, as shown in Table 1.

3. Objectives
The initial design of the core routing data model was driven by the
following objectives:
o The data model should be suitable for the common address families,
in particular IPv4 and IPv6, and for unicast and multicast
routing, as well as Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS).
o A simple IP routing system, such as one that uses only static
routing, should be configurable in a simple way, ideally without
any need to develop additional YANG modules.
o On the other hand, the core routing framework must allow for
complicated implementations involving multiple routing information
bases (RIB) and multiple routing protocols, as well as controlled
redistributions of routing information.
o Device vendors will want to map the data models built on this
generic framework to their proprietary data models and
configuration interfaces. Therefore, the framework should be
flexible enough to facilitate such a mapping and accommodate data
models with different logic.
4. The Design of the Core Routing Data Model
The core routing data model consists of three YANG modules. The
first module, "ietf-routing", defines the generic components of a
routing system. The other two modules, "ietf-ipv4-unicast-routing"
and "ietf-ipv6-unicast-routing", augment the "ietf-routing" module
with additional data nodes that are needed for IPv4 and IPv6 unicast
routing, respectively. Figures 1 and 2 show abridged views of the
configuration and state data hierarchies. See Appendix A for the
complete data trees.

As can be seen from Figures 1 and 2, the core routing data model
introduces several generic components of a routing framework: routing
instances, RIBs containing lists of routes, and routing protocols.
Section 5 describes these components in more detail.
Lhotka & Lindem Expires April 18, 2016 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft YANG Routing Management October 2015
4.1. System-Controlled and User-Controlled List Entries
The core routing data model defines several lists in the schema tree,
for example "routing-instance" or "rib", that have to be populated
with at least one entry in any properly functioning device, and
additional entries may be configured by a client.
In such a list, the server creates the required item as a so-called
system-controlled entry in state data, i.e., inside the "routing-
state" container.
Additional entries may be created in the configuration by a client,
e.g., via the NETCONF protocol. These are so-called user-controlled
entries. If the server accepts a configured user-controlled entry,
then this entry also appears in the state data version of the list.
Corresponding entries in both versions of the list (in state data and
configuration) have the same value of the list key.
A client may also provide supplemental configuration of system-
controlled entries. To do so, the client creates a new entry in the
configuration with the desired contents. In order to bind this entry
to the corresponding entry in the state data list, the key of the
configuration entry has to be set to the same value as the key of the
state entry.
An example can be seen in Appendix D: the "/routing-state/routing-
instance" list has a single system-controlled entry whose "name" key
has the value "rtr0". This entry is configured by the "/routing/
routing-instance" entry whose "name" key is also "rtr0".
Deleting a user-controlled entry from the configuration list results
in the removal of the corresponding entry in the state data list. In
contrast, if a system-controlled entry is deleted from the
configuration list, only the extra configuration specified in that
entry is removed but the corresponding state data entry remains in
the list.
5. Basic Building Blocks
This section describes the essential components of the core routing
data model.
5.1. Routing Instance
The core routing data model supports one or more routing instances
appearing as entries of the "routing-instance" list. Each routing
instance has separate configuration and state data under
Lhotka & Lindem Expires April 18, 2016 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft YANG Routing Management October 2015
"/rt:routing/rt:routing-instance" and "/rt:routing-state/rt:routing-
instance", respectively.
No attempt has been made to define the semantics for every type of
routing instance. The core routing data model defines identities for
two ubiquitous routing instance types:
o "default-routing-instance" - this routing instance type represents
the default (or only) routing instance. All implementations MUST
provide one and only one system-controlled routing instance of
this type.
o "vrf-routing-instance" - this routing instance type represents VRF
(virtual routing and forwarding) routing instances that are used
for virtual private networks (VPN) including BGP/MPLS
VPN_[RFC4364].
It is expected that future YANG modules will define other types of
routing instances. For every such type, an identity derived from
"rt:routing-instance" SHALL be defined. This identity is then
referred to by the value of the "type" leaf (a child node of
"routing-instance" list).
By default, all network layer interfaces are assigned to the routing
instance of the "default-routing-instance" type. This can be changed
by configuring the "rt:routing-instance" leaf in the interface
configuration.
5.1.1. Parameters of IPv6 Router Interfaces
YANG module "ietf-ipv6-unicast-routing" (Section 9) augments the
configuration and state data of IPv6 interfaces with definitions of
the following variables as required by [RFC4861], sec. 6.2.1:
o send-advertisements,
o max-rtr-adv-interval,
o min-rtr-adv-interval,
o managed-flag,
o other-config-flag,
o link-mtu,
o reachable-time,
Lhotka & Lindem Expires April 18, 2016 [Page 9]
Internet-Draft YANG Routing Management October 2015
o retrans-timer,
o cur-hop-limit,
o default-lifetime,
o prefix-list: a list of prefixes to be advertised.
The following parameters are associated with each prefix in the
list:
* valid-lifetime,
* on-link-flag,
* preferred-lifetime,
* autonomous-flag.
NOTES:
1. The "IsRouter" flag, which is also required by [RFC4861], is
implemented in the "ietf-ip" module [RFC7277] (leaf
"ip:forwarding").
2. The original specification [RFC4861] allows the implementations
to decide whether the "valid-lifetime" and "preferred-lifetime"
parameters remain the same in consecutive advertisements, or
decrement in real time. However, the latter behavior seems
problematic because the values might be reset again to the
(higher) configured values after a configuration is reloaded.
Moreover, no implementation is known to use the decrementing
behavior. The "ietf-ipv6-unicast-routing" module therefore
assumes the former behavior with constant values.
5.2. Route
Routes are basic elements of information in a routing system. The
core routing data model defines only the following minimal set of
route attributes:
o "destination-prefix": IP prefix specifying the set of destination
addresses for which the route may be used. This attribute is
mandatory.
o "route-preference": an integer value (also known as administrative
distance) that is used for selecting a preferred route among
Lhotka & Lindem Expires April 18, 2016 [Page 10]
Internet-Draft YANG Routing Management October 2015
routes with the same destination prefix. A lower value means a
more preferred route.
o "next-hop": determines the action to be performed with a packet.
Routes are primarily state data that appear as entries of RIBs
(Section 5.3) but they may also be found in configuration data, for
example as manually configured static routes. In the latter case,
configurable route attributes are generally a subset of route
attributes described above.
5.3. Routing Information Base (RIB)
Every routing instance manages one or more routing information bases
(RIB). A RIB is a list of routes complemented with administrative
data. Each RIB contains only routes of one address family. An
address family is represented by an identity derived from the
"rt:address-family" base identity.
In the core routing data model, RIBs are state data represented as
entries of the list "/routing-state/routing-instance/ribs/rib". The
contents of RIBs are controlled and manipulated by routing protocol
operations which may result in route additions, removals and
modifications. This also includes manipulations via the "static"
and/or "direct" pseudo-protocols, see Section 5.4.1.
Each routing instance has, for every supported address family, one
RIB marked as the so-called default RIB. Its role is explained in
Section 5.4.
Simple router implementations that do not advertise the feature
"multiple-ribs" will typically create one system-controlled RIB per
routing instance and supported address family, and mark it as the
default RIB.
More complex router implementations advertising the "multiple-ribs"
feature support multiple RIBs per address family that can be used for
policy routing and other purposes.
5.4. Routing Protocol
The core routing data model provides an open-ended framework for
defining multiple routing protocol instances within a routing
instance. Each routing protocol instance MUST be assigned a type,
which is an identity derived from the "rt:routing-protocol" base
identity. The core routing data model defines two identities for the
direct and static pseudo-protocols (Section 5.4.1).
Lhotka & Lindem Expires April 18, 2016 [Page 11]
Internet-Draft YANG Routing Management October 2015
Multiple routing protocol instances of the same type MAY be
configured within the same routing instance.
5.4.1. Routing Pseudo-Protocols
The core routing data model defines two special routing protocol
types - "direct" and "static". Both are in fact pseudo-protocols,
which means they are confined to the local device and do not exchange
any routing information with adjacent routers.
Every routing instance MUST implement exactly one instance of the
"direct" pseudo-protocol type. It is the source of direct routes for
all configured address families. Direct routes are normally supplied
by the operating system kernel, based on the configuration of network
interface addresses, see Section 6.2. Direct routes MUST be
installed in default RIBs of all supported address families.
A pseudo-protocol of the type "static" allows for specifying routes
manually. It MAY be configured in zero or multiple instances,
although a typical configuration will have exactly one instance per
routing instance.
5.4.2. Defining New Routing Protocols
It is expected that future YANG modules will create data models for
additional routing protocol types. Such a new module has to define
the protocol-specific configuration and state data, and it has to fit
it into the core routing framework in the following way:
o A new identity MUST be defined for the routing protocol and its
base identity MUST be set to "rt:routing-protocol", or to an
identity derived from "rt:routing-protocol".
o Additional route attributes MAY be defined, preferably in one
place by means of defining a YANG grouping. The new attributes
have to be inserted by augmenting the definitions of the nodes
/rt:routing-state/rt:ribs/rt:rib/rt:routes/rt:route
and
/rt:fib-route/rt:output/rt:route,
and possibly other places in the configuration, state data,
notifications, and RPC input or output.
Lhotka & Lindem Expires April 18, 2016 [Page 12]
Internet-Draft YANG Routing Management October 2015
o Configuration parameters and/or state data for the new protocol
can be defined by augmenting the "routing-protocol" data node
under both "/routing" and "/routing-state".
By using a "when" statement, the augmented configuration parameters
and state data specific to the new protocol SHOULD be made
conditional and valid only if the value of "rt:type" or "rt:source-
protocol" is equal to the new protocol's identity.
It is also RECOMMENDED that protocol-specific data nodes be
encapsulated in an appropriately named container with presence. Such
a container may contain mandatory data nodes that are otherwise
forbidden at the top level of an augment.
The above steps are implemented by the example YANG module for the
RIP routing protocol in Appendix C.
5.5. RPC Operations
The "ietf-routing" module defines one RPC operation:
o fib-route: query a routing instance for the active route in the
Forwarding Information Base (FIB). It is the route that is
currently used for sending datagrams to a destination host whose
address is passed as an input parameter.
6. Interactions with Other YANG Modules
The semantics of the core routing data model also depends on several
configuration parameters that are defined in other YANG modules.
6.1. Module "ietf-interfaces"
The following boolean switch is defined in the "ietf-interfaces" YANG
module [RFC7223]:
/if:interfaces/if:interface/if:enabled
If this switch is set to "false" for a network layer interface,
then all routing and forwarding functions MUST be disabled on that
interface.
6.2. Module "ietf-ip"
The following boolean switches are defined in the "ietf-ip" YANG
module [RFC7277]:
/if:interfaces/if:interface/ip:ipv4/ip:enabled
Lhotka & Lindem Expires April 18, 2016 [Page 13]
Internet-Draft YANG Routing Management October 2015
If this switch is set to "false" for a network layer interface,
then all IPv4 routing and forwarding functions MUST be disabled on
that interface.
/if:interfaces/if:interface/ip:ipv4/ip:forwarding
If this switch is set to "false" for a network layer interface,
then the forwarding of IPv4 datagrams through this interface MUST
be disabled. However, the interface MAY participate in other IPv4
routing functions, such as routing protocols.
/if:interfaces/if:interface/ip:ipv6/ip:enabled
If this switch is set to "false" for a network layer interface,
then all IPv6 routing and forwarding functions MUST be disabled on
that interface.
/if:interfaces/if:interface/ip:ipv6/ip:forwarding
If this switch is set to "false" for a network layer interface,
then the forwarding of IPv6 datagrams through this interface MUST
be disabled. However, the interface MAY participate in other IPv6
routing functions, such as routing protocols.
In addition, the "ietf-ip" module allows for configuring IPv4 and
IPv6 addresses and network prefixes or masks on network layer
interfaces. Configuration of these parameters on an enabled
interface MUST result in an immediate creation of the corresponding
direct route. The destination prefix of this route is set according
to the configured IP address and network prefix/mask, and the
interface is set as the outgoing interface for that route.

11. Security Considerations
Configuration and state data conforming to the core routing data
model (defined in this document) are designed to be accessed via the
NETCONF protocol [RFC6241]. The lowest NETCONF layer is the secure
transport layer and the mandatory-to-implement secure transport is
SSH [RFC6242]. The NETCONF access control model [RFC6536] provides
the means to restrict access for particular NETCONF users to a pre-
configured subset of all available NETCONF protocol operations and
content.
A number of data nodes defined in the YANG modules belonging to the
configuration part of the core routing data model are
writable/creatable/deletable (i.e., "config true" in YANG terms,
which is the default). These data nodes may be considered sensitive
or vulnerable in some network environments. Write operations to
these data nodes, such as "edit-config", can have negative effects on
the network if the protocol operations are not properly protected.
The vulnerable "config true" parameters and subtrees are the
following:
/if:interfaces/if:interface/rt:routing-instance: This leaf assigns a
network layer interface to a routing instance.
/routing/routing-instance/routing-protocols/routing-protocol: This
list specifies the routing protocols configured on a device.
Lhotka & Lindem Expires April 18, 2016 [Page 47]
Internet-Draft YANG Routing Management October 2015
/routing/routing-instance/ribs/rib: This list specifies the RIBs
configured for the device.
Unauthorised access to any of these lists can adversely affect the
routing subsystem of both the local device and the network. This may
lead to network malfunctions, delivery of packets to inappropriate
destinations and other problems.

Appendix B. Minimum Implementation
Some parts and options of the core routing model, such as user-
defined RIBs, are intended only for advanced routers. This appendix
gives basic non-normative guidelines for implementing a bare minimum
of available functions. Such an implementation may be used for hosts
or very simple routers.
A minimum implementation provides a single system-controlled routing
instance of the type "default-routing-instance", and will not allow
clients to create any user-controlled instances.
Lhotka & Lindem Expires April 18, 2016 [Page 51]
Internet-Draft YANG Routing Management October 2015
Typically, the feature "multiple-ribs" will not be supported. This
means that a single system-controlled RIB is available for each
supported address family - IPv4, IPv6 or both. These RIBs must be
the default RIBs. No user-controlled RIBs are allowed.
In addition to the mandatory instance of the "direct" pseudo-
protocol, a minimum implementation should support configuring
instance(s) of the "static" pseudo-protocol.
Platforms with severely constrained resources may use deviations for
restricting the data model, e.g., limiting the number of "static"
routing protocol instances.
Appendix C. Example: Adding a New Routing Protocol
This appendix demonstrates how the core routing data model can be
extended to support a new routing protocol. The YANG module
"example-rip" shown below is intended as an illustration rather than
a real definition of a data model for the RIP routing protocol. For
the sake of brevity, this module does not obey all the guidelines
specified in [RFC6087]. See also Section 5.4.2.

Internet-Draft YANG Routing Management October 2015
We assume a simple network set-up as shown in Figure 3: router "A"
uses static default routes with the "ISP" router as the next-hop.
IPv6 router advertisements are configured only on the "eth1"
interface and disabled on the upstream "eth0" interface.

Appendix E. Change Log
RFC Editor: Remove this section upon publication as an RFC.
E.1. Changes Between Versions -19 and -20
o Assignment of L3 interfaces to routing instances is now part of
interface configuration.
o Next-hop options in configuration were aligned with state data.
o It is recommended to enclose protocol-specific configuration in a
presence container.
E.2. Changes Between Versions -18 and -19
o The leaf "route-preference" was removed from the "routing-
protocol" container in both "routing" and "routing-state".
o The "vrf-routing-instance" identity was added in support of a
common routing-instance type in addition to the "default-routing-
instance".
o Removed "enabled" switch from "routing-protocol".
E.3. Changes Between Versions -17 and -18
o The container "ribs" was moved under "routing-instance" (in both
"routing" and "routing-state").

configuration).
o Configuration and state data for IPv6 RA were moved under
"if:interface" and "if:interface-state".
o Assignment of interfaces to routing instances now use leaf-list
rather than list (both config and state). The opposite reference
from "if:interface" to "rt:routing-instance" was changed to a
single leaf (an interface cannot belong to multiple routing
instances).
o Specification of a default RIB is now a simple flag under "rib"
(both config and state).
o Default RIBs are marked by a flag in state data.
E.4. Changes Between Versions -16 and -17
o Added Acee as a co-author.
o Removed all traces of route filters.
o Removed numeric IDs of list entries in state data.
o Removed all next-hop cases except "simple-next-hop" and "special-
next-hop".
o Removed feature "multipath-routes".
o Augmented "ietf-interfaces" module with a leaf-list of leafrefs
pointing form state data of an interface entry to the routing
instance(s) to which the interface is assigned.

o Added 'type' as the second key component of 'routing-protocol',
both in configuration and state data.
o The restriction of no more than one connected RIB per address
family was removed.
o Removed the 'id' key of routes in RIBs. This list has no keys
anymore.
o Remove the 'id' key from static routes and make 'destination-
prefix' the only key.

description states that they are ephemeral.
o Descriptions of "name" keys in state data lists are required to be
persistent.
o
o Removed "if-feature multiple-ribs;" from connected-ribs.
o "rib-name" instead of "name" is used as the name of leafref nodes.
o "next-hop" instead of "nexthop" or "gateway" used throughout, both
in node names and text.

avoid redundant error messages reporting address family mismatch
when "name" points to a non-existent routing table.
Lhotka & Lindem Expires April 18, 2016 [Page 65]
Internet-Draft YANG Routing Management October 2015
o The default behavior for IPv6 RA prefix advertisements was
clarified.

of "routing" rather than "router".
o "must" statement for "static-routes" changed to "when".
o Added "main-routing-tables" containing references to main routing
tables for each address family.
o Removed the defaults for "address-family" and "safi" and made them
