1. Introduction
The YANG library [RFC8525] specifies a YANG module that provides the information about the YANG models and datastores to facilitate a client application to fully utilize and understand the YANG data modelling language. To know the YANG dependencies, [RFC8525] has defined and provided the submodule list and the YANG modules deviation list. However, the YANG modules augmentation is not provided.¶
According to [RFC7950], both augmentations and deviations are defining contents external to the model, but applying internally for the model. It is important to know the augmentation and deviation as they are dependencies of the model, but it is also difficult because they are defined externally. When we try to use the ietf-yang-library in [RFC8525] to obtain the reverse dependencies (Augmentations and deviations), the augmentation is not defined in it.¶
However, the augmentation and the deviation work similarly as YANG modules dependency. Therefore, it is reasonable to document them the same way in the IETF YANG library. Besides, it will be easier to determine the reverse dependency if the augmentation is directly available, through a GET request into this new YANG model.¶
This draft augment the ietf-yang-library to include the YANG modules augmentation information.¶
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 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here.¶
The terminology from [RFC8525] is used in this document¶
Tree diagrams in this document use the notation defined in [RFC8340] .¶
2. Motivation
When using one YANG model, it is important to make sure that all its dependencies are presented. In [RFC7950] there are four dependencies for one YANG mode:¶
- Import: the "import" statement allows a module or submodule to reference definitions defined in other modules.¶
- Include: the "include" statement is used in a module to identify each submodule that belongs to it.¶
- Augmentation: the "augment" statement defines the location in the data model hierarchy where additional nodes are inserted¶
- Deviation: the "deviation" statement defines a hierarchy of a module that the server does not implement faithfully.¶
The import and include are direct dependencies while the augmentation and deviation are reverse dependencies. To know a specific YANG model's direct dependencies, we can parse this YANG model as the dependencies are directly specified (import and include statements").¶
As for the reverse dependencies, since they are defined externally, we cannot parse the YANG model itself to get them. Among all the methods for getting reverse dependency, getting the ietf-yang-library content is one of the most convenient ways.¶
However, the ietf-yang-library only provides the deviation list, but not the augmentation. It is reasonable to update it to provide the augmentation information since both augmentation and deviation have similar way of working (both are applied to the original model but invisible to them). A noticeable difference between deviations and augmentations is that the deviations are required to understand the API contract between the client and the server. But with some use cases arise as the requirement of automate network management, the augmentation becomes essential information for understanding the network, too.¶
3. Use Cases
As the demand arises for YANG-based telemetry [RFC8641], there is a need for real-time knowledge of a specific YANG model's dependency list when a specific YANG-Push message is received.¶
The alternative, for a YANG-push receiver, to collect and store the entire module set for every single server who could be streaming data, is not always practical. See the following reasons:¶
- For a YANG-push collector => we never know in advance which telemetry content will be received and from whom.¶
- Querying all the YANG modules is time consuming => we lose the real-time.¶
With similar central idea, two use cases are introduced in this section. One target solving the dependencies problems in a Data Mesh Telemetry System while the other aims at building a data catalog which makes YANG model inforamtion easily accessible.¶
3.1. Data Mesh Telemetry Architecture
A network analytics architecture that integrates YANG-push and Kafka is proposed in 2022 and is continuously growing and gaining influence, refer to the draft: An Architecture for YANG-Push to Apache Kafka Integration [I-D.netana-nmop-yang-kafka-integration].¶
In this open-sourced project covering Support of Versioning in YANG Notifications Subscription [I-D.ietf-netconf-yang-notifications-versioning], Support of Network Observation Timestamping in YANG Notifications [I-D.netconf-tgraf-yang-push-observation-time], among others, the purpose is to provide adequate information in the YANG-Push notification so that when it is received, the model and its dependency can be parsed and found automatically from the vantage point. The architecture relies on the information of YANG model and their dependency to realize, as one of its main goals is to solve the problem of missing YANG semantics when data is received in Time Series Database in the end. To solve the problem, a schema registry is introduced to store YANG models and all their relationship (direct dependency and reverse dependency).¶
Currently, the method used for finding model's reverse dependency is get-all-schemas, that is to retrieve all YANG modules from the device to the client's disk, enabling the client to fully understand the YANG model relationship. This process is heavy because in real situation, each device may have few thousands or even more YANG module implemented. Besides, pressure is also introduced due to the need of parsing modules and find all the dependencies.¶
Considering the telemetry real-time aspects, this extra delay in processing the dependencies through get-all-schemas is not ideal.¶
The YANG model proposed in the draft can be used in this architecture to release the stress of get-all-schemas and bring some extra benefits.¶
By providing the augmentation information, it enables the collector to get the YANG reverse dependencies by simply sending one <get> query to ietf-yang-library. In this regard, the process of acquiring full dependency becomes real-time action.¶
Compared with get-all-schemas, it enables collector to fetch up-to-date data since the queries are sent at run time, while the old approach forces collector to always work with never updated data. On another hand, user do not bother waiting for ten minutes every time when starting collector to either get data updated or to obtain YANG relationship.¶
3.2. Data Catalog
Finding the YANG models implemented by a network device is paramount for configuring and monitoring the status of a network. However, since the inception of YANG the network industry has experienced a tsunami of YANG models developed by SDOs, open-source communities, and network vendors. This heterogeneity of YANG models, that vary from one network device model to another, makes the management of a multi-vendor network a big challenge for operators. [Martinez-Casanueva2023]¶
In this regard, a data catalog provides a registry of the datasets exposed by remote data sources for consumers to discover data of interest. Besides the location of the dataset (i.e., the data source), the data catalog registers additional metadata such as the data model (or schema) followed in the dataset or even related terms defined in a business glossary.¶
Data catalog solutions typically implement collectors that ingest metadata from the data sources themselves and also external metadata sources. For example, a Kafka Schema Registry is a metadata source that provides metadata about the data models followed by some data stored in a Kafka topic.¶
In this sense, a YANG-enabled network device can be considered as another kind of data source, which the Data Catalog can pull metadata from. For instance, the data catalog can include a connector that fetches metadata about the YANG models implemented by the network device. Combining these metadata with other such as the business concept "interface", would enable data consumers to discover which datasets related to the concept "interface" are exposed by the network device.¶
Network devices that implement YANG Library expose metadata about which YANG modules are implemented, and which are only imported. However, what a data consumer needs at the end are the YANG models implemented by the device, hence, the combination of implemented YANG modules with other YANG modules that might deviate or augment the formers.¶
Coming back to the example of datasets related to the "interface" concept, say we have a network device that implements the ietf-interfaces module [RFC8343] and the ietf-ip module [RFC8344], where the latter augments the former. For a data catalog to collect these metadata, a connector would retrieve YANG Library data from the target device. However, the current version of YANG Library would not satisfy the use case as it would tell that the device implements both ietf-interfaces and ietf-ip modules, but will miss the augment dependency between them.¶
The current workaround to this limitation is to, in combination with the YANG library data, additionally fetch both YANG modules and process them to discover that there is an augment dependency. This adds extra burden on the connector, which is forced to combine multiple metadata collection mechanisms. This process could be softened by extending YANG Library to also capture augment dependencies, in a similar fashion to deviation dependencies.¶
4. The "ietf-yang-library-augmentedby" YANG module
This YANG module augments the ietf-yang-library module by adding the augmented-by list in the "yang-library/module-set". The name Augmented-by indicated the modules by which the current module is being augmented. Note that this module only augments the ietf-yang-library defined in [RFC8525]. At the time of writing this document, most router vendors support [RFC7895], a previous revision of the ietf-yang-library YANG module; The module that augments [RFC7895] is provided in the appendix B.¶

Appendix A. YANG module validation with yanglint
This section gives a few examples that the user can try themselves with yanglint. This is created to prove the syntax correctness.¶
The valid example should pass the validation while the invalid one will not, because the module has augmented a module in another module-set, which is illegal according to the YANG source code.¶
