Deterministic Networking (DetNet) YANG Model

Abstract

This document contains the specification for the Deterministic Networking YANG Model for configuration and operational data of DetNet Flows. The model allows for provisioning of end-to-end DetNet service on devices along the path without dependency on any signaling protocol. It also specifies operational status for flows.

The YANG module defined in this document conforms to the Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA).

Table of Contents

1. Introduction

DetNet (Deterministic Networking) provides a capability to carry specified unicast or multicast data flows for real-time applications with extremely low packet loss rates and assured maximum end-to-end delivery latency. A description of the general background and concepts of DetNet can be found in [RFC8655].

This document defines a YANG model for DetNet based on YANG data types and modeling language defined in [RFC6991] and [RFC7950]. DetNet service, which is designed for describing the characteristics of services being provided for application flows over a network, and DetNet configuration, which is designed for DetNet flow path establishment, flow status reporting, and DetNet functions configuration in order to achieve end-to-end bounded latency and zero congestion loss, are both included in this document.

This Yang model is scoped to the description of the aggregation/disaggregation and data plane capabilities of the DetNet data planes defined in the DetNet Architecture [RFC8655] and DetNet Framework [RFC8938]. DetNet operates at the IP layer and delivers service over lower-layer technologies such as MPLS and IEEE 802.1 Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN).

3. Terminology

This document uses the terminology defined in [RFC8655]. The terms A-label, S-label, and F-label are used in this document as defined in [RFC8964].

4. DetNet YANG Module

The DetNet YANG module includes DetNet App-flow, DetNet Service Sub-layer, and DetNet Forwarding Sub-layer configuration and operational objects. The corresponding attributes used in different sub-layers are defined in Section 4.1 , Section 4.2 , Section 4.3 respectively.

Layers of the objects typically occur in the different data instances forming the node types defined in [RFC8655]. Figure 1 illustrates the relationship between data instance node types and the included layers. Node types are logical roles per DetNet service: a device along one DetNet service can be of one node type, while another service may use the same device with a different node type. This model is a controller based model because a controller or operator configures all the devices to form a service.

+-----+-----------------+-----------------+---------------+

Figure 1: DetNet Layers and Node Types

All of the layers have ingress/incoming and egress/outgoing operations, but any instance may be configured as only unidirectional. Ingress refers to any DetNet layer where a DetNet context is applied. Ingress allows functions such as switching, aggregation and encapsulation. Likewise, egress refers to any DetNet layer where a DetNet context is removed. Egress allows functions such as switching, disaggregation and decapsulation. This means that each unidirectional flow identifier configuration is programmed starting at the ingress and flow status is reported at ingress on each end. In the MPLS cases once encapsulated, the IP 6-tuple, see [RFC8938], parameters may not be required to be programmed again. In the IP case, without encapsulation, various IP flow id parameters must be configured along the flow path.

In the YANG model the terms source and destination are used as flow identifiers whereas ingress and egress refer to a DetNet application direction from the application edge. Ingress is to the DetNet application and egress is from the application. The terms incoming and outgoing generally represent the flow direction towards the remote application. Outgoing is viewed as going down the stack from Application to Service sub-layer to Forwarding sub-layer and incoming is the reverse. Although, in examples where there is aggregation and disaggregation outgoing relates to the aggregating output and incoming relates to the disaggregating flows.

At the egress point, forwarding information is determined by the App-flow type with all DetNet-related headers removed. The forwarding information can specify an output port, or set a next-hop-address in case of IP, or set an MPLS label in case of MPLS.

4.1. DetNet Application Flow YANG Attributes

DetNet application flow is responsible for mapping between application flows and DetNet flows at the edge node (egress/ingress node). The application flows can be either layer 2 or layer 3 flows. To map a flow at the User Network Interface (UNI), the corresponding attributes are defined in [RFC9016].

4.2. DetNet Service Sub-layer YANG Attributes

DetNet service functions, e.g., DetNet tunnel initialization/termination and service protection, are provided in the DetNet service sub-layer. To support these functions, the following service attributes need to be configured:

  • DetNet flow identification
  • Service function indication, indicates which service function will be invoked at a DetNet edge, relay node or end station. (DetNet tunnel initialization or termination are default functions in the DetNet service layer, so there is no need for explicit indication). The corresponding arguments for service functions also need to be defined.

4.3. DetNet Forwarding Sub-layer YANG Attributes

As defined in [RFC8655], DetNet forwarding sub-layer optionally provides congestion protection for DetNet flows over paths provided by the underlying network. Explicit route is another mechanism that is used by DetNet to avoid temporary interruptions caused by the convergence of routing or bridging protocols, and it is also implemented at the DetNet forwarding sub-layer.

To support congestion protection and explicit route, the following transport layer related attributes are necessary:

  • Flow Specification and Traffic Requirements, as described in the information model in [RFC9016]. These may be used for resource reservation, flow shaping, filtering and policing by a control plane or other network management and control mechanisms.
  • Since this model programs the data plane existing explicit route mechanisms can be reused. If a static MPLS tunnel is used as the transport tunnel, the configuration needs to be at every transit node along the path. For an IP-based path, the static configuration is similar to the static MPLS case. This document provides data-plane configuration of IP addresses or MPLS labels but it does not provide control plane mapping or other aspects.

5. DetNet Flow Aggregation

DetNet provides the capability of flow aggregation to improve scalability of DetNet data, management and control planes. Aggregated flows can be viewed by some DetNet nodes as individual DetNet flows. When aggregating DetNet flows, the flows should be compatible: if bandwidth reservations are used, the reservation should be a reasonable representation of the individual reservations; if maximum delay bounds are used, the system should ensure that the aggregate does not exceed the delay bounds of the individual flows.

The DetNet YANG model defined in this document supports DetNet flow aggregation with the following functions:

The following cases of DetNet aggregation are supported:

Traffic requirements and traffic specification may be tracked for individual or aggregate flows but reserving resources and tracking the services in the aggregated flow is out of scope.

6. DetNet YANG Structure Considerations

The picture shows the general structure of the DetNet YANG Model:

                  +-----------+
                  |ietf-detnet|
                  +-----+-----+
                        |
         +--------------+----------------+------------------+
         |              |                |                  |
   +-----+------+ +-----+------+ +-------+------+           |
   | App Flows  | |service s-l | |forwarding s-l|           |
   +-----+------+ +-----+------+ +-------+------+           |
         |              |                |                  |
   +-----+------+ +-----+------+ +-------+------+           |
   | Reference  | | Reference  | | Reference    |           |
   | to Traffic | | to Traffic | | to Traffic   |   +-------+-------+
   | Profile    | | Profile    | | Profile      |   |Traffic Profile|
   +------------+ +------------+ +--------------+   +---------------+

There are three layer types in the DetNet YANG Model: App-flow data layer, service sub-layer and forwarding sub-layer. Additionally, the Traffic parameters are captured in a Traffic profile that can be referenced by any of the layers.

Below is a summary YANG tree showing the major items. A complete YANG tree is in section Appendix A.

A traffic profile can be created for an application, a service sub-layer or a forwarding sub-layer. A single profile may be shared by multiple applications/sub-layer. Each profile indicates the members currently using that profile.

Depending on which DetNet layers and functions are required, some or all of the components may be configured. Examples are shown in Appendix B.

7. DetNet Configuration YANG Structures

10. Security Considerations

Security considerations for DetNet are covered in the DetNet Architecture [RFC8655] and DetNet Security Considerations [RFC9055] .

The YANG modules specified in this document define 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) [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.

There are a number of data nodes defined in the module that 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. Unauthorized write operations (e.g., edit-config) to any elements of this module can break or incorrectly connect DetNet flows. Since DetNet is a configured Data Plane, any changes that are not coordinated with all devices along the path will create a denial of service. In addition, arbitrary write operations could also enable an attacker to modify a network path to enable select traffic to avoid inspection or treatment by security controls, or route traffic in a way that it would be subject to inspect/modification by an adversary node.

Similarly, the data nodes in these YANG modules 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 node and their sensitivity/vulnerability:

/detnet/app-flows: This controls the application details so it could be considered sensitive.

/detnet/traffic-profile/member-app-flow: This links traffic profiles to applications, service sub-layers and/or and forwarding sub-layers so this also could be considered more sensitive.

/detnet/service/sub-layer/incoming/app-flow: This links applications to services.

/detnet/service/sub-layer/outgoing/app-flow: This links applications to services.

The above nodes can reveal identifiable characteristics of the application flows.

/detnet/service/sub-layer: This defines the service and forwarding operations.

/detnet/fowarding/sub-layer: This defines the forwarding operations.

The above nodes can reveal some aspects of the network topology of there is unauthorized access to this configuration.

Appendix B. Examples

The following examples are provided. These examples are tested with Yanglint and use operational output to exercise both config true and config false objects. Note that IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are supported but for clarity in the examples and diagrams IPv4 has been used in most examples. The IP types are imported from [RFC6991] and these support both IPv4 and IPv6.

The following conventions are used in the diagrams.

The following are examples of aggregation and disaggregation at various points in DetNet. Figures are provided in the PDF and HTML version of this document.

B.1. Example A-1 JSON Configuration/Operational

This illustrates that multiple App flows with the same source, the same destination, and the same traffic specification are aggregated in a single DetNet flow service sub-layer. Ingress node 1 aggregates App flows 0 and 1 into a service sub-layer of DetNet flow 1. Two ways of illustrating this follow, then the JSON operational data model corresponding to the diagrams follows. This example uses IPv6 address format.

Figure 4: Example A-1 DetNet configuration Application Aggregation

B.2. Example B-1 XML Config: Aggregation using a Forwarding Sub-layer

Figure 5 illustrates the DetNet service sub-layer flows 1 and 2 are aggregated into a single forwarding sub-layer. For the same destination multiple DetNet flows use a single forwarding path and service protection is performed by the corresponding service sub-layer of each flow. A diagram illustrating this case is shown and then the corresponding XML operational data for node Ingress 1 follows.

B.3. Example B-2 JSON Service Aggregation Configuration

Figure 7 illustrates DetNet service sub-layer flows 1 and 2 are aggregated into a service sub-layer of an aggregated flow. Multiple DetNet flows with the same requirements for the same destination are aggregated into a single aggregated DetNet flow, and service protection and resource allocation are performed by an aggregated DetNet flow service sub-layer and forwarding sub-layer. A diagram illustrating this case is shown and then the corresponding JSON operational data for node Ingress 1 follows.

Figure 7: Case B-2 Example Service Aggregation

Figure 8 contains the operational JSON configuration for the ingress aggregation node illustrated in Figure 7. In this example, service sub-layer ssl-1 for DetNet flow DN1 and ssl-2 for flow DN2 aggregate at service sub-layer Detet flow asl-1. In this example an aggregation service sub-layer asl-1 is created to aggregated ssl-1 and ssl2 and that label is encapsulated in a separate forwarding sub-layer afl-1 with MPLS labels.

Figure 8: Example B-2 DetNet Service Aggregation

B.4. Example C-1 JSON Relay Aggregation/Disaggregation Configuration

Figure 9 illustrates the relay node's forwarding sub-layer flows 1 and 2 aggregated into a single forwarding sub-layer. Service protection and resource allocation are performed by the corresponding service sub-layer and forwarding sub-layer of each flow. A diagram illustrating both aggregation and disaggregation is shown and then the corresponding JSON operational data follows.

Figure 9: Case C-1 Example Service Aggregation/Disaggregation

Figure 10 contains the operational JSON configuration for the ingress aggregation node illustrated in Figure 9. In this example, a relay performing aggregation at the forwarding sub-layer is illustrated. Two DetNet flows DN1 and DN2 are replicated at each service sub-layer. The two forwarding sub-layers for the upside path are aggregated at the forwarding sub-layer with label 20000 and the two forwarding sub-layers for the downside path are aggregated at the forwarding sub-layer with label 20001. Figure 11 contains the operational JSON configuration for the egress disaggregation node illustrated in Figure 9.

Figure 11: Example C-1 DetNet Relay Service Disaggregation

B.5. Example C-2 JSON Relay Aggregation/Disaggregation Service Sub-Layer

Figure 12 illustrates the DetNet relay node service sub-layer flows 1 and 2 aggregated into a single forwarding sub-layer. Service protection is performed by the corresponding service sub-layer of each flow and resource allocation is performed by an aggregated forwarding sub-layer for all aggregated flows. A diagram illustrating both aggregation and disaggregation is shown and then the corresponding JSON operational data follows.

Figure 12: Case C-2 Example Service Aggregation/Disaggregation

Figure 13 contains the operational JSON configuration for the ingress aggregation node illustrated in Figure 12. In this example, a relay performing aggregation at the forwarding sub-layer is illustrated. Two DetNet flows DN1 and DN2 are replicated at each service sub-layer, and the replicated each service sub-layer for the upside path is aggregated at the single forwarding sub-layer with MPLS label 20000, and the replicated each service sub-layer for the downside path is aggregated at the forwarding sub-layer with MPLS label 20001. Figure 14 contains the operational JSON configuration for the egress disaggregation node illustrated in Figure 12.

Figure 14: Example C-2 DetNet Relay Disaggregation Service Sub-Layer

B.6. Example C-3 JSON Relay Service Sub-Layer Aggregation/Disaggregation

Figure 15 illustrates the DetNet relay node service sub-layer flows 1 and 2 aggregated into a service sub-layer flow. Multiple DetNet flows with the same requirements which can use the same path are aggregated into a single aggregated DetNet flow, and service protection and resource allocation are performed by the service sub-layer and forwarding sub-layer of aggregated DetNet flow. A diagram illustrating both aggregation and disaggregation is shown and then the corresponding JSON operational data follows.

Figure 15: Case C-3 Example Service Aggregation/Disaggregation

Figure 16 contains the operational JSON configuration for the ingress aggregation node illustrated in Figure 15. In this example a relay performing aggregation at the service sub-layer is illustrated. Two DetNet flows DN1 and DN2 are relayed at each service sub-layer with MPLS labels 101 and 104 respectively, and each service sub-layer is aggregated at a single service sub-layer flow and replicated. Figure 17 contains the operational JSON configuration for the egress disaggregation node illustrated in Figure 15.

Figure 17: Example C-3 DetNet Relay Service Sub-Layer Disaggregation

B.7. Example C-4 JSON Relay Service Sub-Layer Aggregation/Disaggregation

Figure 18 illustrates the relay node DetNet forwarding sub-layer flows 1 and 2 aggregated into a service sub-layer DetNet flow. Multiple DetNet flows with the same requirements which can use the same path are aggregated into a single aggregated DetNet flow. Service protection is performed by the service sub-layer of the aggregated DetNet flow and resource allocation is performed by the forwarding sub-layer of each aggregated DetNet flow. A diagram illustrating both aggregation and disaggregation is shown and then the corresponding JSON operational data follows.

Figure 18: Case C-4 Example Service Aggregation/Disaggregation

Figure 19 contains the operational JSON configuration for the ingress aggregation node illustrated in Figure 18. In this example, a relay performing aggregation at the service sub-layer is illustrated. Two DetNet flows DN1 and DN2 are relayed at each service sub-layer. The two DetNet forwarding sub-layer flows with MPLS labels 20004 and 20005 are aggregated at the single service sub-layer DetNet flow and then replicated. Figure 20 contains the operational JSON configuration for the egress disaggregation node illustrated in Figure 18.

Figure 20: Example C-4 DetNet Relay Service Sub-Layer Disaggregation

B.8. Example D-1 JSON Transit Forwarding Sub-Layer Aggregation/Disaggregation

Figure 21 illustrates at the transit node, forwarding sub-layer flows 1 and 2 are aggregated into a single forwarding sub-layer. Resource allocation is performed by the corresponding forwarding sub-layer for all aggregated flows. Figure 21 illustrating both aggregation and disaggregation is shown and then the corresponding JSON operational data follows.

Figure 21: Case D-1 Example Transit Node Forwarding Aggregation/Disaggregation

Figure 22 contains the operational JSON configuration for the ingress aggregation node illustrated in Figure 21. In this example, a transit node performing aggregation at the forwarding sub-layer is illustrated. Two DetNet flows DN1 and DN2 are transmitted at each forwarding sub-layer. The DetNet forwarding sub-layer flows with MPLS labels 10002 and 10006 are aggregated at the single forwarding sub-layer. The resulting aggregated DetNet flow has MPLS label 20000. Figure 23 contains the operational JSON configuration for the egress disaggregation transit node illustrated in Figure 21.
