RFC 8431 RIB Data Model September 2018
1. Introduction
The Interface to the Routing System (I2RS) [RFC7921] provides read
and write access to the information and state within the routing
process that exists inside the routing elements; this is achieved via
protocol message exchange between I2RS clients and I2RS agents
associated with the routing system. One of the functions of I2RS is
to read and write data of the Routing Information Base (RIB).
[I2RS-REQS] introduces a set of RIB use cases. The RIB information
model is defined in [RFC8430].
This document defines a YANG data model [RFC7950] [RFC6991] for the
RIB that satisfies the RIB use cases and aligns with the RIB
information model.
