This document contains the specification for Deterministic Networking flow configuration YANG Model. The model allows for provisioning of end-to-end DetNet service along the path without dependency on any signaling protocol.
The YANG module defined in this document conforms to the Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA).
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 RFC 2119.
This Internet-Draft is submitted in full conformance with the provisions of BCP 78 and BCP 79.

Deterministic Networking (DetNet) [I-D.ietf-detnet-architecture] is defined to provide high-quality network service with extremely low packet loss rate, bounded low latency and jitter.
DetNet flow information is defined in[I-D.ietf-detnet-flow-information-model], and the DetNet models are categorized as:
User Network Operator flow/service +---+ model +---+ | | <---------------> | X | management/control +---+ +-+-+ plane entity ^ | configuration | model +------------+ v | | +-+ | v network +-+ v +-+ nodes +-+ +-+ +-+ Figure 1. Three Information Models
They are shown in the Figure 1.
DetNet YANG [RFC7950] [RFC6991] models include:
DetNet YANG [RFC7950] [RFC6991] models are used for DetNet service configurations, QoS configuration and topology discovery. DetNet topology model is defined in ietf-detnet-topology-yang. This document defines two YANG models, which are referred to as DetNet flow configuration model and DetNet transport QoS model. DetNet flow model is designed for DetNet flow path configuration and flow status reporting. DetNet transport QoS model is designed for QoS attributes configuration of transport tunnels to achieve end-to-end bounded latency and zero congestion loss.
This documents uses the terminologies defined in [I-D.ietf-detnet-architecture].
DetNet flow configuration includes DetNet Service Proxy configuration, DetNet Service Layer configuration and DetNet Transport Layer configuration. The corresponding attributes used in different layers are defined in Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, respectively.
DetNet service proxy is responsible for mapping between application flows and DetNet flows at the edge node(egress/ingress node). Where the application flows can be either layer 2 or layer 3 flows. To identify a flow at the User Network Interface (UNI), as defined in [I-D.ietf-detnet-flow-information-model], the following flow attributes are introduced:
DetNet service proxy can also do flow filtering and policing at the ingress to prevent the misbehaviored flows from going into the network, which needs:
The YANG module structure is shown below:

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

As defined in [I-D.ietf-detnet-architecture], DetNet transport 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 transport layer.
To support congestion protection and explicit route, the following transport layer related attributes are necessary:

The parameters for DetNet transport QoS are defined in Section 5.

This section defines three classes of DetNet configuration model: fully distributed configuration model, fully centralized configuration model, hybrid configuration model, based on different network architectures, showing how configuration information exchanges between various entities in the network.
In a fully distributed configuration model, UNI information is transmitted over DetNet UNI protocol from the user side to the network side; then UNI information and network configuration information propagate in the network over distributed control plane protocol. For example:
1) IGP collects topology information and DetNet capabilities of network([I-D.geng-detnet-info-distribution]);
2) Control Plane of the Edge Node(Ingress) receives a flow establishment request from UNI and calculates a/some valid path(s);
3) Using RSVP-TE, Edge Node(Ingress) sends a PATH message with explicit route. After receiving the PATH message, the other Edge Node(Egress) sends a Resv message with distributed label and resource reservation request.
Current distributed control plane protocol,e.g., RSVP-TE[RFC3209], SRP[IEEE802.1Qcc], can only reserve bandwidth along the path, while the configuration of a fine-grained schedule, e.g.,Time Aware Shaping(TAS) defined in [IEEE802.1Qbv], is not supported.
The fully distributed configuration model is not covered by this draft. It should be discussed in the future DetNet control plane work.
In the fully centralized configuration model, UNI information is transmitted from Centralized User Configuration (CUC) to Centralized Network Configuration(CNC). Configurations of routers for DetNet flows are performed by CNC with network management protocol. For example:
1) CNC collects topology information and DetNet capability of network through Netconf;
2) CNC receives a flow establishment request from UNI and calculates a/some valid path(s);
3) CNC configures the devices along the path for flow transmission.
In the hybrid configuration model, controller and control plane protocols work together to offer DetNet service, and there are a lot of possible combinations. For example:
1) CNC collects topology information and DetNet capability of network through IGP/BGP-LS;
2) CNC receives a flow establishment request from UNI and calculates a/some valid path(s);
3) Based on the calculation result, CNC distributes flow path information to Edge Node(Ingress) and other information(e.g. replication/elimination) to the relevant nodes.
4) Using RSVP-TE, Edge Node(Ingress) sends a PATH message with explicit route. After receiving the PATH message, the other Edge Node(Egress) sends a Resv message with distributed label and resource reservation request.
or
1) Controller collects topology information and DetNet capability of network through IGP/BGP-LS;
2) Control Plane of Edge Node(Ingress) receives a flow establishment request from UNI;
3) Edge Node(Ingress) sends the path establishment request to CNC through PCEP;
4) After Calculation, CNC sends back the path information of the flow to the Edge Node(Ingress) through PCEP;
5) Using RSVP-TE, Edge Node(Ingress) sends a PATH message with explicit route. After receiving the PATH message, the other Edge Node(Egress) sends a Resv message with distributed label and resource reservation request.
There are also other variations that can be included in the hybrid model. This draft can not coverer all the control plane data needed in hybrid configuration models. Every solution has there own mechanism and corresponding parameters to make it work.
Editor's Note:
1. There are a lot of optional DetNet configuration models, and different scenario in different use case can choose one of them based on its conditions. Maybe next step of the work is to pick up one or more typical scenarios and give a practical solution.
2. [IEEE802.1Qcc] also defines three TSN configuration models: fully-centralized model, fully-distributed model, centralized Network / distributed User Model. This section defines the configuration model roughly the same, to keep the design of L2 and L3 in the same structure. Hybrid configuration model is slightly different from the 'centralized Network / distributed User Model'. The hybrid configuration model intends to contain more variations.
There are some open issues that are still under discussion:
These issues will be resolved in the following versions of the draft.
