YANG Modules for Service Assurance
draft-ietf-opsawg-service-assurance-yang-05
Abstract
This document specifies YANG modules representing assurance graphs.
These graphs represent the assurance of a given service by
decomposing it into atomic assurance elements called subservices. A
companion RFC, Service Assurance for Intent-based Networking
Architecture, presents an architecture for implementing the assurance
of such services.
The YANG data models in this document conforms to the Network
Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA) defined in RFC 8342.

1. Introduction
The "Service Assurance for Intent-based Networking Architecture"
[I-D.ietf-opsawg-service-assurance-architecture], specifies the
architecture and all of its components for service assurance. This
document complements the architecture by providing open interfaces
between components. More specifically, the goal is to provide YANG
modules for the purpose of service assurance in a format that is:
* machine readable
* vendor independent
* augmentable
1.1. Terminology
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
13 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all
capitals, as shown here.
The terms used in this document are defined in
[I-D.ietf-opsawg-service-assurance-architecture]
2. YANG Models Overview
The main YANG module, ietf-service-assurance, defines objects for
assuring network services based on their decomposition into so-called
subservices. The subservices are hierarchically organised by
dependencies. The subservices, along with the dependencies,
constitute an assurance graph. This module should be supported by an
agent, able to interact with the devices in order to produce a health
status and symptoms for each subservice in the assurance graph. This
module is intended for the following use cases:
* Assurance graph configuration:
Claise, et al. Expires 31 October 2022 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft YANG Modules for Service Assurance April 2022
- Subservices: configure a set of subservices to assure, by
specifying their types and parameters.
- Dependencies: configure the dependencies between the
subservices, along with their type.
* Assurance telemetry: export the health status of the subservices,
along with the observed symptoms.
The main module represents the configuration (subservice and
dependencies) and operational data (health status and symptoms) in a
single tree. Other modules follows the same pattern. Thus, the
modules presented in this document conform to the Network Management
Datastore Architecture defined in [RFC8342].
The second YANG module, ietf-service-assurance-device, extends the
ietf-service-assurance module to add support for the device
subservice. Additional subservice types might be added the same way.
The third YANG module, ietf-service-assurance-interface, is another
example that extends the ietf-service-assurance module. This
extension adds support for the interface subservice.
We provide additional examples in the appendix. The module example-
service-assurance-device-acme extends the ietf-service-assurance-
device module to customize it for devices of the fictional ACME
Corporation. Additional vendor-specific parameters might be added
the same way. We also provide the modules example-service-assurance-
ip-connectivity and example-service-assurance-is-is to completely
model the example from the SAIN architecture draft
[I-D.ietf-opsawg-service-assurance-architecture].

3.2. Concepts
The ietf-service-assurance YANG model assumes an identified number of
subservices, to be assured independently. A subservice is a feature
or a subpart of the network system that a given service instance
might depend on. Example of subservices include:
* device: whether a device is healthy, and if not, what are the
symptoms. Potential symptoms are "CPU overloaded", "Out of RAM",
or "Out of TCAM".
* ip-connectivity: given two IP addresses owned by two devices, what
is the quality of the connection between them. Potential symptoms
are "No route available" or "ECMP Imbalance".
Claise, et al. Expires 31 October 2022 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft YANG Modules for Service Assurance April 2022
The first example is a subservice representing a subpart of the
network system, while the second is a subservice representing a
feature of the network, In both cases, these subservices might depend
on other subservices, for instance, the connectivity might depend on
a subservice representing the routing mechanism and on a subservice
representing ECMP.
The status of each subservice contains a list of symptoms. Each
symptom is specified by a unique id and contains a health-score-
weight (the impact to the health score incurred by this symptom), a
label (text describing what the symptom is), and dates and times at
which the symptom was detected and stopped being detected. While the
unique id is sufficient as an unique key list, the start-date-time
second key help sorting and retrieving relevant symptoms.
The relation between the health score and the health-score-weight of
the currently active symptoms is not explicitly defined in this
draft. The only requirement is that a non-maximal score must be
explained by at least one symptom. A way to enforce that requirement
is to first detect symptoms and then compute the health score based
on the health-score-weight of the detected symptoms. As an example,
this computation could be to sum the health-score-weight of the
active symptoms, subtract that value from 100 and change the value to
0 if negative. The relation between health-score and health-score-
weight is left to the implementor (of an agent
[I-D.ietf-opsawg-service-assurance-architecture]). To consider for
implementing this relation: the health-score is mostly for humans,
the symptoms are what the closed loop automation can build on.
The assurance of a given service instance can be obtained by
composing the assurance of the subservices that it depends on, via
the dependency relations.
A subservice declaration MUST provide:
* A type: identity inheriting of the base identity for subservice,
* An id: string uniquely identifying the subservice among those with
the same identity,
* One or more parameters, which should be specified in an augmenting
model, as described in the next sections.
The type and id uniquely identify a given subservice. They are used
to indicate the dependencies. Dependencies have types as well. Two
types are specified in the model:
Claise, et al. Expires 31 October 2022 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft YANG Modules for Service Assurance April 2022
* Impacting: such a dependency indicates an impact on the health of
the dependent,
* Informational: such a dependency might explain why the dependent
has issues but does not impact its health.
To illustrate the difference between "impacting" and "informational",
consider the interface subservice, representing a network interface.
If the device to which the network interface belongs goes down, the
network interface will transition to a down state as well.
Therefore, the dependency of the interface subservice towards the
device subservice is "impacting". On the other hand, a dependency
towards the ecmp-load subservice, which checks that the load between
ECMP remains stable throughout time, is only "informational".
Indeed, services might be perfectly healthy even if the load
distribution between ECMP changed. However, such an instability
might be a relevant symptom for diagnosing the root cause of a
problem.
Service instances MUST be modeled as a particular type of subservice
with two parameters, a type and an instance name. The type is the
name of the service defined in the network orchestrator, for instance
"point-to-point-l2vpn". The instance name is the name assigned to
the particular instance to be assured, for instance the name of the
customer using that instance.
The "under-maintenance" and "maintenance-contact" flags inhibit the
emission of symptoms for that subservice and subservices that depend
on them. See Section 3.7 of
[I-D.ietf-opsawg-service-assurance-architecture] for a more detailed
discussion.
By specifying service instances and their dependencies in terms of
subservices, one defines the whole assurance to apply for them. An
assurance agent supporting this model should then produce telemetry
in return with, for each subservice: a health-status indicating how
healthy the subservice is and when the subservice is not healthy, a
list of symptoms explaining why the subservice is not healthy.

4.3. Concepts
As the number of subservices will grow over time, the YANG module is
designed to be extensible. A new subservice type requires the
precise specifications of its type and expected parameters. Let us
illustrate the example of the new device subservice type. As the
name implies, it monitors and reports the device health, along with
some symptoms in case of degradation.
Claise, et al. Expires 31 October 2022 [Page 16]
Internet-Draft YANG Modules for Service Assurance April 2022
For our device subservice definition, the new identity device-idty is
specified, as an inheritance from the base identity for subservices.
This indicates to the assurance agent that we are now assuring the
health of a device.
The typical parameter for the configuration of the device subservice
is the name of the device that we want to assure. By augmenting the
parameter choice from ietf-service-assurance YANG module for the case
of the device-idty subservice type, this new parameter is specified.

6. Security Considerations
The YANG module specified in this document defines a schema for data
that is designed to be accessed via network management protocols such
as NETCONF [RFC6241] or RESTCONF [RFC8040]. The lowest NETCONF layer
is the secure transport layer, and the mandatory-to-implement secure
transport is Secure Shell (SSH) [RFC6242]. The lowest RESTCONF layer
is HTTPS, and the mandatory-to-implement secure transport is TLS
[RFC8446].
The Network Configuration Access Control Model (NACM) [RFC8341]
provides the means to restrict access for particular NETCONF or
RESTCONF users to a preconfigured subset of all available NETCONF or
RESTCONF 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:
* /subservices/subservice/type
* /subservices/subservice/id
* /subservices/subservice/under-maintenance
* /subservices/subservice/maintenance-contact

A.3. Concepts
Under some circumstances, vendor-specific subservice types might be
required. As an example of this vendor-specific implementation, this
section shows how to augment the ietf-service-assurance-device module
to add custom support for the device subservice, specific to the ACME
Corporation. The specific version adds a new parameter, named acme-
specific-parameter.

Appendix B. Further Extensions: IP Connectivity and IS-IS subservices
In this section, we provide two additional YANG models to completely
cover the example from Figure 2 in
[I-D.ietf-opsawg-service-assurance-architecture]. The complete
normalization of these modules is to be done in future work.
B.1. IP Connectivity Tree View
That subservice represents the unicast connectivity between two IP
addresses located on to different devices. Such a subservice could
report symptoms such as "No route found". The following tree diagram
[RFC8340] provides an overview of the example-service-assurance-ip-
connectivity data model.
module: example-service-assurance-ip-connectivity
augment /sain:subservices/sain:subservice/sain:parameter:
+--rw parameters

+--rw device2 string
+--rw address2 inet:ip-address
Claise, et al. Expires 31 October 2022 [Page 30]
Internet-Draft YANG Modules for Service Assurance April 2022
To specify the connectivity that we are interested in, we specify two
IP addresses and two devices. The subservice assures that the
connectivity between IP address 1 on device 1 and IP address 2 on
device 2 is healthy.
B.2. IS-IS Tree View
The following tree diagram [RFC8340] provides an overview of the
example-service-assurance-is-is data model.
module: example-service-assurance-is-is
augment /sain:subservices/sain:subservice/sain:parameter:

Appendix C. Example of YANG instances
This section contains examples of YANG instances that conform to the
YANG modules. The validity of these data instances has been checked
using yangson (https://yangson.labs.nic.cz/). Yangson requires a
YANG library [RFC7895] to define the complete model against which the
data instance must be validated. We provide in Appendix D the JSON
library file, named "ietf-service-assurance-library.json", that we
used for validation.
We provide below the contents of the file
"example_configuration_instance.json" which contains the
configuration data that models the Figure 2 of
[I-D.ietf-opsawg-service-assurance-architecture]. The instance can
be validated with yangson by using the invocation "yangson -v
example_configuration_instance.json ietf-service-assurance-
library.json", assuming all the files (YANG and JSON) defined in this
draft reside in the current folder.
