Table of Contents

1. Introduction

[RFC8345] defines the YANG [RFC6020] [RFC7950] data models of the abstract (generic) network and network topology. Such models can be augmented with technology-specific details to build more specific topology models.

This document defines the YANG data model for Layer 2 network topologies by augmenting the generic network and network topology data models with L2 specific topology attributes. A sample example is provided in Appendix B.

This document uses the common YANG types defined in [RFC6991] and adopts the Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA [RFC8342]).

The terminology for describing YANG modules is defined in [RFC7950]. The meanings of the symbols used in the tree diagram are defined in [RFC8340].

2. Terminology

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 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here.

3. Layer 2 Topology Model

The Layer 2 network topology YANG module is designed to be generic and applicable to Layer 2 networks built with different L2 technologies. It can be used to describe both the physical and the logical (virtual) L2 network topologies.

The relationship between the Layer 2 topology module and the generic network and network topology module is shown in Figure 1. In order to represent a Layer 2 network topology, the generic network and topology models are augmented with Layer-2 specific information, such as the identifiers, descriptions, attributes and states of the Layer-2 networks, nodes, links and termination points. Some of the information may be collected via Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) or other Layer-2 protocols, and some of them may be locally configured.

6. 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 [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.

In general, Layer 2 network topologies are system-controlled and provide ephemeral topology information. In an NMDA-complient server, they are only part of <operational> which provides read-only access to clients, they are less vulnerable. That said, the YANG module does in principle allow information to be configurable.

The Layer 2 topology module define information that can be configurable in certain instances, for example in the case of virtual topologies that can be created by client applications. In such cases, a malicious client could introduce topologies that are undesired. Specifically, a malicious client could attempt to remove or add a node, a link, a termination point, by creating or deleting corresponding elements in the node, link, and termination point lists, respectively. In the case of a topology that is learned, the server will automatically prohibit such misconfiguration attempts. In the case of a topology that is configured, i.e. whose origin is "intended", the undesired configuration could become effective and be reflected in the operational state datastore, leading to disruption of services provided via this topology might be disrupted. For those reasons, it is important that the NETCONF access control model is vigorously applied to prevent topology 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 in the ietf-network module:

Appendix A. Companion YANG Module for Non-NMDA Compliant Implementations

The YANG module ietf-l2-topology defined in this document augments two modules, ietf-network and ietf-network-topology, that are designed to be used in conjunction with implementations that support the Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA) defined in [RFC8342]. In order to allow implementations to use the model even in cases when NMDA is not supported, a set of companion modules have been defined that represent a state model of networks and network topologies, ietf- network-state and ietf-network-topology-state, respectively.

In order to be able to use the model for layer 2 topologies defined in this document in conjunction with non-NMDA compliant implementations, a corresponding companion module is defined that represent the operational state of layer 2 network topologies. The module ietf-l2-topology-state mirrors the module ietf-l2-topology defined earlier in this document. However, it augments ietf-network-state and ietf-network-topology-state (instead of ietf-network and ietf-network-topology) and all its data nodes are non-configurable.

The companion module ietf-l2-topology SHOULD NOT be supported by implementations that support NMDA. It is for this reason that this module is defined in the Appendix.

As the structure of this modules mirrors that of its underlying modules, the YANG tree is not depicted separately.

Appendix B. An Example

This section contains an example of an instance data tree in JSON encoding [RFC7951]. The example instantiates "ietf-l2- topology" for the topology that is depicted in the following diagram. There are three nodes: D1, D2, and D3. D1 has three termination points: 1-0-1, 1-2-1, and 1-3-1. D2 has three termination points as well: 2-1-1, 2-0-1, and 2-3-1. D3 has two termination points: 3-1-1 and 3-2-1. In addition, there are six links, two between each pair of nodes, with one going in each direction.
