RFC 8431 RIB Data Model September 2018 1. Introduction The Interface to the Routing System (I2RS) [RFC 7921] 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 [RFC 8430]. This document defines a YANG data model [RFC 7950] [RFC 6991] for the RIB that satisfies the RIB use cases and aligns with the RIB information model. 1.1. Requirements Language 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 [RFC 2119] [RFC 8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here. 1.2. Definitions and Abbreviations RIB: Routing Information Base FIB: Forwarding Information Base RPC: Remote Procedure Call IM: Information Model. An abstract model of a conceptual domain, which is independent of a specific implementation or data representation. 1.3. Tree Diagrams Tree diagrams used in this document follow the notation defined in [RFC 8340]. 2. Model Structure The following figure shows an overview of the structure tree of the ietf-i2rs-rib module. To give a whole view of the structure tree, some details of the tree are omitted. The relevant details are introduced in the subsequent subsections. Wang, et al. Standards Track PAGE 3 top

RFC 8431 RIB Data Model September 2018 2.1. RIB Capability RIB capability negotiation is very important because not all of the hardware will be able to support all kinds of nexthops, and there might be a limitation on how many levels of lookup can be practically performed. Therefore, a RIB data model needs to specify a way for an external entity to learn about the functional capabilities of a network device. At the same time, nexthop chains can be used to specify multiple headers over a packet before that particular packet is forwarded. Not every network device will be able to support all kinds of nexthop chains along with the arbitrary number of headers that are chained together. The RIB data model needs a way to expose the nexthop chaining capability supported by a given network device. This module uses the feature and if-feature statements to achieve above capability advertisement. 2.2. Routing Instance and RIB A routing instance, in the context of the RIB information model, is a collection of RIBs, interfaces, and routing protocol parameters. A routing instance creates a logical slice of the router and can allow multiple different logical slices, across a set of routers, to communicate with each other. The routing protocol parameters control the information available in the RIBs. More details about a routing instance can be found in Section 2.2 of [RFC 8430]. For a routing instance, there can be multiple RIBs. Therefore, this model uses "list" to express the RIBs. The structure tree is shown below: +--rw routing-instance +--rw name string +--rw interface-list* [name] | +--rw name if:interface-ref +--rw router-id? yang:dotted-quad +--rw lookup-limit? uint8 +--rw rib-list* [name] +--rw name string +--rw address-family address-family-definition +--rw ip-rpf-check? boolean +--rw route-list* [route-index] ... // refer to Section 2.3 Figure 2: Routing Instance Structure Wang, et al. Standards Track PAGE 8 top

RFC 8431 RIB Data Model September 2018 2.3. Route A route is essentially a match condition and an action following that match. The match condition specifies the kind of route (e.g., IPv4, MPLS, Media Access Control (MAC), Interface, etc.) and the set of fields to match on. A route MUST contain the ROUTE_PREFERENCE attribute (see Section 2.3 of [RFC 8430]). In addition, a route MUST associate with the following status attributes in responses to a RIB writing/reading operation: o Active: Indicates whether a route has at least one fully resolved nexthop and is therefore eligible for installation in the FIB. o Installed: Indicates whether the route got installed in the FIB. o Reason: Indicates the specific reason that caused the failure, e.g., "Not authorized". In addition, a route can be associated with one or more optional route-attributes (e.g., route-vendor-attributes). A RIB will have a number of routes, so the routes are expressed as a list under a specific RIB. Each RIB has its own route list. Wang, et al. Standards Track PAGE 9 top

RFC 8431 RIB Data Model September 2018 2.4. Nexthop A nexthop represents an object resulting from a route lookup. As illustrated in Figure 4 of [RFC 8430], to support various use cases (e.g., load-balancing, protection, multicast, or a combination of them), the nexthop is modeled as a multilevel structure and supports recursion. The first level of the nexthop includes the following four types: o Base: The "base" nexthop is the foundation of all other nexthop types. It includes the following basic nexthops: * nexthop-id * IPv4 address * IPv6 address * egress-interface * egress-interface with IPv4 address * egress-interface with IPv6 address * egress-interface with MAC address * logical-tunnel * tunnel-encapsulation * tunnel-decapsulation * rib-name o Chain: The "chain" nexthop provides a way to perform multiple operations on a packet by logically combining them. o Load-Balance: The "load-balance" nexthop is designed for a load- balance case where it normally will have multiple weighted nexthops. o Protection: The "protection" nexthop is designed for a protection scenario where it normally will have primary and standby nexthop. o Replicate: The "replicate" nexthop is designed for multiple destinations forwarding.

RPC Operations This module defines the following RPC operations: o rib-add: Add a RIB to a routing instance. The following are passed as the input parameters: the name of the RIB, the address family of the RIB, and (optionally) whether the RPF check is enabled. The output is the result of the add operation: * true - success * false - failed (when failed, the I2RS agent may return the specific reason that caused the failure) Wang, et al. Standards Track PAGE 15 top

RFC 8431 RIB Data Model September 2018 o rib-delete: Delete a RIB from a routing instance. When a RIB is deleted, all routes installed in the RIB will be deleted. A rib- name is passed as the input parameter. The output is the result of the delete operation: * true - success * false - failed (when failed, the I2RS agent may return the specific reason that caused the failure) o route-add: Add a route or a set of routes to a RIB. The following are passed as the input parameters: the name of the RIB, the route prefix(es), the route-attributes, the route-vendor-attributes, the nexthop, and the "whether to return failure details" indication. Before calling the route-add rpc, it is required to call the nh- add rpc to create and/or return the nexthop identifier. However, in situations when the nexthop already exists and the nexthop-id is known, this action is not expected.

RFC 8431 RIB Data Model September 2018 2.6. Notifications Asynchronous notifications are sent by the RIB manager of a network device to an external entity when some event triggers on the network device. An implementation of this RIB data model MUST support sending two kinds of asynchronous notifications. 1. Route change notification: o Installed (indicates whether the route got installed in the FIB) o Active (indicates whether a route has at least one fully resolved nexthop and is therefore eligible for installation in the FIB) o Reason (e.g., "Not authorized") 2. Nexthop resolution status notification Nexthops can be fully resolved or unresolved. A resolved nexthop has an adequate level of information to send the outgoing packet towards the destination by forwarding it on an interface to a directly connected neighbor. An unresolved nexthop is something that requires the RIB manager to determine the final resolved nexthop. In one example, a nexthop could be an IP address. The RIB manager would resolve how to reach that IP address, e.g., by checking if that particular IP address is reachable by regular IP forwarding, by an MPLS tunnel, or by both. If the RIB manager cannot resolve the nexthop, then the nexthop remains in an unresolved state and is NOT a suitable candidate for installation in the FIB. An implementation of this RIB data model MUST support sending route- change notifications whenever a route transitions between the following states: o from the active state to the inactive state o from the inactive state to the active state o from the installed state to the uninstalled state o from the uninstalled state to the installed state A single notification MAY be used when a route transitions from inactive/uninstalled to active/installed or in the other direction.

XML: N/A, the requested URI is an XML namespace. ------------------------------------------------------------------- This document registers a YANG module in the "YANG Module Names" registry [RFC 7950]: ------------------------------------------------------------------- name: ietf-i2rs-rib namespace: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-i2rs-rib prefix: iir reference: RFC 8431 ------------------------------------------------------------------- 5. 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 [RFC 6241] or RESTCONF [RFC 8040]. The lowest NETCONF layer is the secure transport layer, and the mandatory-to-implement secure transport is Secure Shell (SSH) [RFC 6242]. The lowest RESTCONF layer is HTTPS, and the mandatory-to-implement secure transport is TLS [RFC 8446]. The NETCONF access control model [RFC 8341] 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. The YANG module defines information that can be configurable in certain instances, for example, a RIB, a route, a nexthop can be created or deleted by client applications; the YANG module also defines RPCs that can be used by client applications to add/delete RIBs, routes, and nexthops. In such cases, a malicious client could attempt to remove, add, or update a RIB, a route, or a nexthop by creating or deleting corresponding elements in the RIB, route, and Wang, et al. Standards Track PAGE 67 top

RFC 8431 RIB Data Model September 2018 nexthop lists, respectively. Removing a RIB or a route could lead to disruption or impact in performance of a service; updating a route may lead to suboptimal path and degradation of service levels as well as possibly disruption of service. For those reasons, it is important that the NETCONF access control model is vigorously applied to prevent misconfiguration by unauthorized clients. There are a number of data nodes defined in this YANG 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. Write operations (e.g., edit-config) to these data nodes without proper protection can have a negative effect on network operations. These are the subtrees and data nodes and their sensitivity/vulnerability: o RIB: A malicious client could attempt to remove a RIB from a routing instance, for example, in order to sabotage the services provided by the RIB or to add a RIB to a routing instance (hence, to inject unauthorized traffic into the nexthop). o route: A malicious client could attempt to remove or add a route from/to a RIB, for example, in order to sabotage the services provided by the RIB. o nexthop: A malicious client could attempt to remove or add a nexthop from/to RIB, which may lead to a suboptimal path, a degradation of service levels, and a possible disruption of service. 6.
