1. Introduction
Normally, a data center network is composed of single or multiple
fabrics which are also known as PODs (a Point Of Delivery). These
fabrics may be heterogeneous due to implementation of different
technologies while DC network upgrading or enrolling new techniques
and features. For example, Fabric A may use VXLAN while Fabric B may
use VLAN within a DC network. Likewise, a legacy Fabric may use
VXLAN while a new Fabric B implemented technique discussed in NVO3 WG
such as GPE[I-D. draft-ietf-nvo3-vxlan-gpe] may be built due to DC
expansion and upgrading. The configuration and management of such DC
networks with heterogeneous fabrics will be sophisticated and
complex.
Luckily, for a DC network, a fabric can be considered as an atomic
structure to provide network services and management, as well as
expand network capacity. From this point of view, the miscellaneous
DC network management can be decomposed to task of managing each
fabric respectively along with their connections, which can make the
entire management much concentrated and flexible, also easy to
expand.
With this purpose, this document defines a YANG data model for the
Fabric-based Data center topology by using YANG [6020][7950]. To do
so, it augments the generic network and network topology data models
Zhuang, et al. Expires May 1, 2017 [Page 2]
Internet-Draft Data model for DC fabric topology October 2016
defined in [I-D.ietf-i2rs-yang-network-topo] with information
specific to Data Center fabric network.
This model defines the generic configuration and operational state
for a fabric-based network topology, which can be extended by vendors
with specific information. This model can then be used by network
elements to expose to a network controller and capture their
understanding of the overall network topology and self role in the
overall network. Also, it can be used by a network controller to
represent its view of the fabric topology that it controls and expose
it to applications for DC network management. Besides, this draft
provides a fabric capable device module to configure devices
according to specific fabric topology and used technologies.
With the context of topology architecture defined in [I-D.ietf-i2rs-
yang-network-topo] and [I.D. draft-ietf-i2rs-usecase-reqs-summary],
this model can also be treated as an application of I2RS network
topology model [I-D.ietf-i2rs-yang-network-topo] in the scenario of
Data center network management. It can also act as a service
topology when mapping network elements at fabric layer to elements to
other topologies, such as L3 topology defined in [I.D. draft-ietf-
i2rs-yang-l3-topology-01.
By using this fabric topology model, people can focus on
characteristics of fabrics (such as encapsulation type, gateway type,
etc.) as well as their connections while putting the underlay
topology aside. As such, clients can consume the topology
information at fabric level, while no need to parse entire set of
links and nodes in underlay networks. The mapping between fabric
layer and underlay topologies are made when creating a fabric, while
further management of the network will dynamically be mapped from
nodes of the fabric layer onto the related nodes in the underlay
network.
2. Definitions an Acronyms
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].
2.1. Terminology
DC Fabric: also known as POD, is a module of network, compute,
storage, and application components that work together to deliver
networking services. It is a repeatable design pattern, and its
components maximize the modularity, scalability, and manageability of
data centers.

2.2. Tree diagram
The following notations are used within the data tree and carry the
meaning as below.
Each node is printed as:
<status> <flags> <name> <opts> <type>
<status> is one of:
+ for current
x for deprecated
o for obsolete
<flags> is one of:
rw for configuration data
ro for non-configuration data
-x for rpcs
-n for notifications
<name> is the name of the node
If the node is augmented into the tree from another module, its name
is printed as <prefix>:<name>.
<opts> is one of:
? for an optional leaf or choice
! for a presence container
* for a leaf-list or list
[<keys>] for a list's keys
<type> is the name of the type for leafs and leaf-lists
In this document, these words will appear with that interpretation
only when in ALL CAPS. Lower case uses of these words are not to be
interpreted as carrying RFC-2119 significance.
3. Model Overview
This section provides an overview of the DC Fabric topology model and
its relationship with other topology models.
3.1. Topology Model structure
The relationship of the DC fabric topology model and other topology
models is shown in the following figure (dotted lines in the figure
denote augmentations).

From the perspective of resource management and service provisioning
for a Data Center network, the fabric topology model augments the
basic network topology model with definitions and features specific
to a DC fabric, to provide common configuration and operations for
heterogeneous fabrics.
3.2. Fabric Topology Model
The fabric topology model is composed of two key modules, fabric-
topology module and fabric-capable-device module, which are designed
to be generic and can be applied to data center fabrics built with
different technologies, such as VLAN, VXLAN etc al. The main purpose
is to configure and manage fabrics and their connections.
3.2.1. Fabric Topology
In the fabric topology module, a fabric is modeled as a node in the
network, while the fabric-based Data center network consists of a set
of fabric nodes and their connections known as "fabric port". The
following is the snatch of the definition to show the main structure
of the model:
Zhuang, et al. Expires May 1, 2017 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft Data model for DC fabric topology October 2016
module: ietf-fabric-topology
augment /nw:networks/nw:network/nw:network-types:
+--rw fabric-network!
augment /nw:networks/nw:network/nw:node:
+--rw fabric-attribute
+--rw name? string
+--rw type? fabrictype:underlayer-network-type
+--rw description? string
+--rw options
+--...
augment /nw:networks/nw:network/nw:node/nt:termination-point:
+--ro fport-attribute
+--ro name? string
+--ro role? fabric-port-role
+--ro type? fabric-port-type
The fabric topology module augments the generic ietf-network and
ietf-network-topology modules as follows:
o A new topology type "ietf-fabric-topology" is introduced and added
under the "network-types" container of the ietf-network module.
o Fabric is defined as a node under the network/node container. A
new container of "fabric-attribute" is defined to carry attributes
for a fabric network such as gateway mode, fabric types, involved
device nodes and links etc al.
o Termination points (in network topology module) are augmented with
fabric port attributes defined in a container. The "termination-
point" here can represent the "port" of a fabric that provides
connections to other nodes, such as device internally, another
fabric externally and also end hosts.
Details of fabric node and fabric termination point extension will be
explained in the following sections.
3.2.1.1. Fabric node extension
As a network, a fabric itself is composed of set of network elements
i.e. devices, and related links. As stated previously, the
configuration of a fabric is contained under the "fabric-attribute"
container depicted as follows:
Zhuang, et al. Expires May 1, 2017 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft Data model for DC fabric topology October 2016
+--rw fabric-attribute
+--rw name? string
+--rw type? fabrictype:underlayer-network-type
+--rw description? string
+--rw options
| +--rw gateway-mode? enumeration
| +--rw traffic-behavior? enumeration
| +--rw capability-supported* fabrictype:service-capabilities
+--rw device-nodes* [device-ref]
| +--rw device-ref fabrictype:node-ref
| +--rw role? fabrictype:device-role
+--rw device-links* [link-ref]
+--rw link-ref fabrictype:link-ref
As in the module, additional data objects for nodes are introduced by
augmenting the "node" list of the network module. New objects
include fabric name, type of the fabric, descriptions of the fabric
as well as a set of options defined in an "options" container. The
options container includes type of the gateway-mode (centralized or
distributed) and traffic-behavior (whether acl needed for the
traffic).
Also, it defines a list of device-nodes and related links as
supporting-nodes to form a fabric network. These device nodes and
links are leaf-ref of existing nodes and links in the physical
topology. For the device-node, the "role" object is defined to
represents the role of the device within the fabric, such as "SPINE"
or "LEAF", which should work together with gateway-mode.
3.2.1.2. Fabric termination-point extension
Since the fabric is considered as a node, in this concept,
"termination-points" can represent "ports" of a fabric that connects
to other fabrics or end hosts, besides representing ports that
connect devices inside the fabric itself.
As such, the "termination-point" in the fabric topology has three
roles, including internal TP that connects to devices within a
fabric, external TP that connects to outside network, as well as
access TP to end hosts.
A set of "termination-point" indicates all connections of a fabric
including its internal connections, interconnections with other
fabrics and also connections to end hosts for a DC network.
The structure of fabric ports is as follows:
Zhuang, et al. Expires May 1, 2017 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft Data model for DC fabric topology October 2016
augment /nw:networks/nw:network/nw:node/nt:termination-point:
+--ro fport-attribute
+--ro name? string
+--ro role? fabric-port-role
+--ro type? fabric-port-type
+--ro device-port? tp-ref
+--ro (tunnel-option)?
+--:(gre)
+--ro src-ip? inet:ip-prefix
+--ro dest-ip? inet:ip-address
It augments the termination points (in network topology module) with
fabric port attributes defined in a container.
New nodes are defined for fabric ports which include name, role of
the port within the fabric (internal port, external port to outside
network, access port to end hosts), port type (l2 interface, l3
interface etc al). By using the device-port defined as a tp-ref,
this fabric port can be mapped to a device node in the underlay
network.
Also, a new container for tunnel-options is introduced as well to
present the tunnel configuration on the port.
3.2.1.3. Operations for Fabric topology
In addition, we also define several rpc operations for fabric
managements within data center networks to get and configure fabrics
and obtain a response as depicted below.

+---w link-ref? -> /nd:networks/network[nd:network-id=current()/../network-ref]/lnk:link/link-id
+---w network-ref? -> /nd:networks/network/network-id
In general, the fabric topology module defines 7 rpc commands for
this management, including getting all fabric information, composing
a fabric, decomposing a fabric, adding a device node to a fabric,
removing a device node from a fabric, adding a link to a fabric and
removing a link from a fabric.

3.2.2. Fabric Capable Device
Besides the fabric topology module, a fabric-capable-device module is
defined to configure individual network elements i.e. devices of
physical network with specific attributes according to fabric
topology and used specific technologies which acts as supporting
nodes of a fabric.
The structure of "ietf-fabric-capable-device" data model is depicted
in the following diagram.

The ietf-fabric-capable-device augments the generic ietf-network and
ietf-network-topology modules with specific attributes for fabric
services as follows:
o Additional data objects for nodes are introduced by augmenting the
"node" list of the network module to carry specific fabric
features for a fabric capable device. New objects include type of
supported fabric such as VXLAN fabric or VLAN fabric, supported
capability such as whether the device supports Network Address
Transformation or Service Function Chain functions. Also, the
"host" fabric is indicated to show which fabric the device
belonged to.
o Besides, new objects for configuring the device are contained in
the "config" container, which includes the L2 attributes and L3
attributes of the bridge.
o Termination points are also augmented with attributes to indicate
the role of the device port in a fabric and its role in the bridge
network.
