YANG Model for Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) Configuration
draft-scharf-tcpm-yang-tcp-06
Abstract
This document specifies a YANG model for TCP on devices that are
configured by network management protocols. The YANG model defines a
container for all TCP connections and groupings of some of the
parameters that can be imported and used in TCP implementations or by
other models that need to configure TCP parameters. The model
includes definitions from YANG Groupings for TCP Client and TCP
Servers (I-D.ietf-netconf-tcp-client-server). The model is NMDA (RFC
8342) compliant.

1. Introduction
The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) [RFC0793] is used by many
applications in the Internet, including control and management
protocols. Therefore, TCP is implemented on network elements that
can be configured via network management protocols such as NETCONF
[RFC6241] or RESTCONF [RFC8040]. This document specifies a YANG
[RFC7950] 1.1 model for configuring TCP on network elements that
support YANG data models, and is Network Management Datastore
Architecture (NMDA) [RFC8342] compliant. This module defines a
container for TCP connection, and includes definitions from YANG
Groupings for TCP Clients and TCP Servers
[I-D.ietf-netconf-tcp-client-server]. The model has a narrow scope
and focuses on fundamental TCP functions and basic statistics. The
model can be augmented or updated to address more advanced or
implementation-specific TCP features in the future.

Internet-Draft TCP Configuration July 2020
Many protocol stacks on Internet hosts use other methods to configure
TCP, such as operating system configuration or policies. Many TCP/IP
stacks cannot be configured by network management protocols such as
NETCONF [RFC6241] or RESTCONF [RFC8040]. Moreover, many existing
TCP/IP stacks do not use YANG data models. Such TCP implementations
often have other means to configure the parameters listed in this
document, which are outside the scope of this document.
This specification is orthogonal to the Management Information Base
(MIB) for the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) [RFC4022]. The
basic statistics defined in this document follow the model of the TCP
MIB. An TCP Extended Statistics MIB [RFC4898] is also available, but
this document does not cover such extended statistics. It is
possible also to translate a MIB into a YANG model, for instance
using Translation of Structure of Management Information Version 2
(SMIv2) MIB Modules to YANG Modules [RFC6643]. However, this
approach is not used in this document, as such a translated model
would not be up-to-date.
There are other existing TCP-related YANG models, which are othogonal
to this specification. Examples are:
o TCP header attributes are modeled in other models, such as YANG
Data Model for Network Access Control Lists (ACLs) [RFC8519] and
Distributed Denial-of-Service Open Thread Signaling (DOTS) Data
Channel Specification [I-D.ietf-dots-data-channel].
o TCP-related configuration of a NAT (e.g., NAT44, NAT64,
Destination NAT, ...) is defined in A YANG Module for Network
Address Translation (NAT) and Network Prefix Translation (NPT)
[RFC8512] and A YANG Data Model for Dual-Stack Lite (DS-Lite)
[RFC8513].

3. Model Overview
3.1. Modeling Scope
TCP is implemented on many different system architectures. As a
result, there are may different and often implementation-specific
ways to configure parameters of the TCP protocol engine. In
addition, in many TCP/IP stacks configuration exists for different
scopes:
o Global configuration: Many TCP implementations have configuration
parameters that affect all TCP connections. Typical examples
include enabling or disabling optional protocol features.
o Interface configuration: It can be useful to use different TCP
parameters on different interfaces, e.g., different device ports
or IP interfaces. In that case, TCP parameters can be part of the
interface configuration. Typical examples are the Maximum Segment
Size (MSS) or configuration related to hardware offloading.
o Connection parameters: Many implementations have means to
influence the behavior of each TCP connection, e.g., on the
programming interface used by applications. A typical example are
socket options in the socket API, such as disabling the Nagle
algorithm by TCP_NODELAY. If an application uses such an
interface, it is possible that the configuration of the
application or application protocol includes TCP-related
parameters. An example is the BGP YANG Model for Service Provider
Networks [I-D.ietf-idr-bgp-model].
o Policies: Setting of TCP parameters can also be part of system
policies, templates, or profiles. An example would be the
preferences defined in An Abstract Application Layer Interface to
Transport Services [I-D.ietf-taps-interface].
As a result, there is no ground truth for setting certain TCP
parameters, and traditionally different TCP implementation have used
different modeling approaches. For instance, one implementation may
define a given configuration parameter globally, while another one
uses per-interface settings, and both approaches work well for the
corresponding use cases. Also, different systems may use different
default values. In addition, TCP can be implemented in different
Scharf, et al. Expires January 11, 2021 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft TCP Configuration July 2020
ways and design choices by the protocol engine often affect
configuration options.
Nonetheless, a number of TCP stack parameters require configuration
by YANG models. This document therefore defines a minimal YANG model
with fundamental parameters directly following from TCP standards.
An important use case is the TCP configuration on network elements
such as routers, which often use YANG data models. The model
therefore specifies TCP parameters that are important on such TCP
stacks. A typical example is the support of TCP-AO [RFC5925]. TCP-
AO is increasingly supported on routers to secure routing protocols
such as BGP. In that case, TCP-AO configuration is required on
routers.
Given an installed base, the model also allows enabling of the legacy
TCP MD5 [RFC2385] signature option. As the TCP MD5 signature option
is obsoleted by TCP-AO, it is strongly RECOMMENDED to use TCP-AO.
Similar to the TCP MIB [RFC4022], this document also specifies basic
statistics and a TCP connection table.
o Statistics: Counters for the number of active/passive opens, sent
and received segments, errors, and possibly other detailed
debugging information
o TCP connection table: Access to status information for all TCP
connections
This allows implementations of TCP MIB [RFC4022] to migrate to the
YANG model defined in this memo.
3.2. Model Design
The YANG model defined in this document includes definitions from the
YANG Groupings for TCP Clients and TCP Servers
[I-D.ietf-netconf-tcp-client-server]. Similar to that model, this
specification defines YANG groupings. This allows reuse of these
groupings in different YANG data models. It is intended that these
groupings will be used either standalone or for TCP-based protocols
as part of a stack of protocol-specific configuration models. An
example could be the BGP YANG Model for Service Provider Networks
[I-D.ietf-idr-bgp-model].

This document registers two URIs in the "ns" subregistry of the IETF

5.2. The YANG Module Names Registry
This document registers a YANG modules in the YANG Module Names

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) described in Using the NETCONF
protocol over 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.

<!--
This example shows how TCP keepalive can be configured for
a given connection. An idle connection is dropped after
idle-time + (max-probes * probe-interval).

<!--
It is not clear why a server and client configuration is
needed here even as they under a feature statement and therefore
are required only if the feature is declared. Adding it so
that yanglint allows this validation to run.
