A YANG Data Model for Segment Routing (SR) Policy and SR in IPv6 (SRv6) support in Path Computation Element Communications Protocol (PCEP)

Abstract

This document augments a YANG data model for the management of Path Computation Element Communications Protocol (PCEP) for communications between a Path Computation Client (PCC) and a Path Computation Element (PCE), or between two PCEs in support for Segment Routing in IPv6 (SRv6) and SR Policy. The data model includes configuration data and state data (status information and counters for the collection of statistics).

Status of This Memo

This Internet-Draft is submitted in full conformance with the provisions of BCP 78 and BCP 79.

1. Introduction

The Path Computation Element (PCE) defined in [RFC4655] is an entity that is capable of computing a network path or route based on a network graph, and applying computational constraints. A Path Computation Client (PCC) may make requests to a PCE for paths to be computed.

PCEP is the communication protocol between a PCC and PCE and is defined in [RFC5440]. PCEP interactions include path computation requests and path computation replies as well as notifications of specific states related to the use of a PCE in the context of Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) and Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) Traffic Engineering (TE). [RFC8231] specifies extensions to PCEP to enable stateful control of MPLS TE LSPs.

[I-D.ietf-pce-segment-routing-ipv6] extends [RFC8664] to support SR for IPv6 data plane.

[I-D.ietf-pce-pcep-yang] defines a YANG [RFC7950] data model for the management of PCEP speakers. This document contains a specification of the PCEP-SRv6 YANG module, "ietf-pcep-srv6" which provides the PCEP-SRv6 [I-D.ietf-pce-segment-routing-ipv6] data model. This document also contains the PCEP SR Policy YANG module, "ietf-pcep-srpolicy" which provides a reference to SR Policies [RFC9256].

The PCEP operational state is included in the same tree as the PCEP configuration consistent with Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA) [RFC8342]. The origin of the data is indicated as per the origin metadata annotation.

2. 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.

3. Terminology and Notation

This document also uses the following terms defined in [RFC7420]:

  • PCEP entity: a local PCEP speaker.
  • PCEP peer: a remote PCEP speaker.
  • PCEP speaker: where it is not necessary to distinguish between local and remote.

Further, this document also uses the following terms defined in [RFC8231] :

  • Stateful PCE, Passive Stateful PCE, Active Stateful PCE.
  • Delegation, Revocation, Redelegation.
  • LSP State Report, Path Computation Report message (PCRpt).
  • LSP State Update, Path Computation Update message (PCUpd).

[RFC8281] :

  • PCE-initiated LSP, Path Computation LSP Initiate Message (PCInitiate).

[RFC8408] :

  • Path Setup Type (PST).

[RFC8664] :

  • Segment Routing (SR).

[I-D.ietf-pce-segment-routing-ipv6] :

  • Segment Routing in IPv6 (SRv6).

[RFC9256] :

  • SR Policy.

3.1. Tree Diagrams

A simplified graphical representation of the data model is used in this document. The meaning of the symbols in these diagrams is defined in [RFC8340].

3.2. Prefixes in Data Node Names

In this document, names of data nodes and other data model objects are often used without a prefix, as long as it is clear from the context in which the 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.

Table 1: Prefixes and corresponding YANG modules
Prefix YANG module Reference
inet ietf-inet-types [RFC6991]
te-types ietf-te-types [RFC8776]
pcep ietf-pcep [I-D.ietf-pce-pcep-yang]
srv6-types ietf-srv6-types [I-D.ietf-spring-srv6-yang]
sr-policy-types ietf-sr-policy-types [I-D.ietf-spring-sr-policy-yang]

3.3. References in the Model

The following additional documents are referenced in the model defined in this document -

Table 2: References in the YANG modules
Title Reference
PCEP Extensions for Segment Routing leveraging the IPv6 data plane [I-D.ietf-pce-segment-routing-ipv6]
Carrying Binding Label/Segment Identifier (SID) in PCE-based Networks [I-D.ietf-pce-binding-label-sid]
Segment Routing Policy Architecture [RFC9256]
PCEP Extensions for Signaling Multipath Information [I-D.ietf-pce-multipath]
PCEP extension to support Segment Routing Policy Candidate Paths [I-D.ietf-pce-segment-routing-policy-cp]

3.4. Further Discussion

[I-D.ietf-pce-multipath] defines a mechanism to encode multiple paths for a single set of objectives and constraints. This is a generic PCEP mechanism, not specific to any path setup type or dataplane but the key usecase is SR.

Further discussion is needed on how to model it in PCEP YANG.

4. The Design of YANG Data Model

4.1. The Overview of PCEP SRv6 Data Model

The PCEP-SRv6 YANG module defined in this document has all the common building blocks for the PCEP-SRv6 extension. The model augments PCEP capabilities at the Entity and peer level with SRv6 capability in PCEP, support for NAI, MSD and the SID structure. The model also extends the LSP in the LSP-DB to maintain SRv6 paths.

module: ietf-pcep-srv6

  augment /pcep:pcep/pcep:entity/pcep:capabilities:
    +--rw srv6 {srv6}?
    |  +--rw enabled?    boolean
    |  +--rw nai?        boolean
    |  +--rw srv6-msd* [msd-type]
    |     +--rw msd-type     uint8
    |     +--rw msd-value?   uint8
    +--rw sid-str {sid-str}?
       +--rw lb?   uint8
       +--rw ln?   uint8
       +--rw fn?   uint8
       +--rw an?   uint8
  augment /pcep:pcep/pcep:entity/pcep:peers/pcep:peer/pcep:capabilities:
    +--rw srv6 {srv6}?
       +--rw enabled?    boolean
       +--rw nai?        boolean
       +--rw srv6-msd* [msd-type]
          +--rw msd-type     uint8
          +--rw msd-value?   uint8
  augment /pcep:pcep/pcep:entity/pcep:lsp-db/pcep:lsp:
    +--ro srv6 {srv6}?
       +--ro segment-list
          +--ro segment* [index]
             +--ro index                uint32
             +--ro sid-value?           srv6-types:srv6-sid
             +--ro sid-str {sid-str}?
             |  +--ro lb?   uint8
             |  +--ro ln?   uint8
             |  +--ro fn?   uint8
             |  +--ro an?   uint8
             +--ro endpoint-behavior?   identityref


4.2. The Overview of PCEP SR Policy Data Model

The PCEP-SRPolicy YANG module defined in this document has all the common building blocks for the PCEP-SR Policy extension. The model augments the LSP in the LSPDB to have information refering to the SR Policy and the candidate path.

module: ietf-pcep-srpolicy

  augment /pcep:pcep/pcep:entity/pcep:lsp-db/pcep:lsp:
    +--ro sr-policy
       +--ro headend?    inet:ip-address-no-zone
       +--ro color?      uint32
       +--ro endpoint?   inet:ip-address-no-zone
       +--ro name?       string
       +--ro cp
          +--ro protocol-origin?   sr-policy-types:protocol-origin-type
          +--ro originator?        string
          +--ro discriminator?     uint32
          +--ro name?              string

The sr-policy container is applicable for both SR-MPLS and SRv6.

6. Security Considerations

The YANG module defined in this document is designed to be accessed via network management protocol such as NETCONF [RFC6241] or RESTCONF [RFC8040]. The lowest NETCONF layer is the secure transport layer and the mandatory-to-implement secure transport is SSH [RFC6242]. The lowest RESTCONF layer is HTTPS, and the mandatory-to-implement secure transport is TLS [RFC8446]

The NETCONF access control model [RFC8341] provides the means to restrict access for particular NETCONF or RESTCONF users to a pre-configured subset of all available NETCONF or RESTCONF protocol operations and content.

There are a number of data nodes defined in the 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:

  • /pcep:pcep/pcep:entity/pcep:capabilities/pcep-srv6:srv6 - configure local SRv6 capability and parameters.
  • /pcep:pcep/pcep:entity/pcep:peers/pcep:peer/pcep:capabilities/pcep-srv6:srv6 - configure peer's SRv6 capability and parameters.

Unauthorized access to above list can adversely affect the PCEP session between the local entity and the peers. This may lead to inability to compute new paths, stateful operations on the delegated as well as PCE-initiated LSPs.

Some of the readable data nodes in this YANG module may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. It is thus important to control read access (e.g., via get, get-config, or notification) to these data nodes. These are the subtrees and data nodes and their sensitivity/vulnerability:

  • /pcep:pcep/pcep:entity/pcep:lsp-db/pcep:lsp/pcep-srv6:srv6 - The SRv6 SID in the network. Unauthorized access to this could provide entire path and network usage information.
  • /pcep:pcep/pcep:entity/pcep:lsp-db/pcep:lsp/pcep-srpolicy:sr-policy - The reference to SR Policy. Unauthorized access to this could provide SR Policy usage information.
