Generic YANG Data Model for Connection Oriented Operations, Administration, and Maintenance(OAM) protocols
draft-ietf-lime-yang-connection-oriented-oam-model-06
This document presents a base YANG Data model for connection-oriented Operations, Administration, and Maintenance(OAM) protocols. It provides a technology-independent abstraction of key OAM constructs for such protocols. The model presented here can be extended to include technology specific details. This guarantees uniformity in the management of OAM protocols and provides support for nested OAM workflows (i.e., performing OAM functions at different levels through a unified interface).
The YANG model in this document conforms to the Network Management Datastore Architecture.

Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM) are important networking functions that allow operators to:
An overview of OAM tools is presented in [RFC7276]. Over the years, many technologies have developed similar tools for fault and performance management.
The different sets of OAM tools may support both connection-oriented technologies or connectionless technologies. In connection-oriented technologies, a connection is established prior to the transmission of data. After the connection is established, no additional control information such as signaling or operations and maintenance information is required to transmit the actual user data. In connectionless technologies, data is typically sent between communicating end points without prior arrangement, but control information is required to identify the destination (e.g., [G.800] ). The YANG Data model for OAM protocols using connectionless communications is specified in [I-D.ietf-lime-yang-connectionless-oam].
[IEEE802.1ag] Connectivity Fault Management is a well-established OAM standard that is widely adopted for Ethernet networks. ITU-T [G.8013], MEF Service OAM [MEF-17], MPLS-TP [RFC6371], TRILL [RFC7455] all define OAM mechanisms based on the manageability frame work of CFM [IEEE802.1ag].
Given the wide adoption of the underlying OAM concepts defined in CFM [IEEE802.1ag], it is a reasonable choice to develop the unified management framework for connection-oriented OAM based on those concepts. In this document, we take the CFM [IEEE802.1ag] model and extend it to a technology independent framework and define the corresponding YANG model accordingly. The YANG model presented in this document is the base model for connection-oriented OAM protocols and supports generic continuity check, connectivity verification and path discovery (traceroute). The generic YANG model for connection-oriented OAM is designed to be extensible to other connection-oriented technologies. Technology dependent nodes and remote process call (RPC) commands are defined in technology specific YANG models, which use and extend the base model defined here. As an example, VXLAN uses source UDP port number for flow entropy, while TRILL uses either MAC addresses, the VLAN tag or fine grain label, and/or IP addresses for flow entropy in the hashing for multipath selection. To capture this variation, corresponding YANG models would define the applicable structures as augmentation to the generic base model presented here. This accomplishes three goals: First it keeps each YANG model smaller and more manageable. Second, it allows independent development of corresponding YANG models. Third, implementations can limit support to only the applicable set of YANG models. (e.g. TRILL RBridge may only need to implement Generic model and the TRILL YANG model).
The YANG data model presented in this document is generated at the management layer. Encapsulations and state machines may differ according to each OAM protocol. A user who wishes to issues a Continuity Check command or a Loopback or initiate a performance monitoring session can do so in the same manner regardless of the underlying protocol or technology or specific vendor implementation.
As an example, consider a scenario where connectivity from device A loopback to device B fails. Between device A and B there are IEEE 802.1 bridges a, b and c. Let's assume a,b and c are using CFM [IEEE802.1ag]. A user upon detecting the loopback failure, may decide to drill down to the lower level at different segments of the path and issue the corresponding fault verification (LBM) and fault isolation (LTM) tools, using the same API. This ability to drill down to a lower layer of the protocol stack at a specific segment within a path for fault localization and troubleshooting is referred to as "nested OAM workflow". It is a useful concept that leads to efficient network troubleshooting and maintenance workflows. The connection-oriented OAM YANG model presented in this document facilitates that without needing changes to the underlying protocols.
The YANG model in this document conforms to the Network Management Datastore Architecture defined in [I-D.ietf-netmod-revised-datastores].
The keywords "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 BCP14, [RFC2119], [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here.
Tree diagrams used in this document follow the notation defined in [I-D.ietf-netmod-yang-tree-diagrams].
In this document we define a generic YANG model for connection-oriented OAM protocols. The YANG model defined here is generic in a sense that other technologies can extend it for technology-specific needs. The Generic YANG model acts as the root for other OAM YANG models. This allows users to traverse between different OAM protocols with ease through a uniform API set. This also enables a nested OAM workflow. Figure 1 depicts the relationship of different OAM YANG models to the Generic YANG Model for connection-oriented OAM. The Generic YANG model for OAM provides a framework where technology- specific YANG models can inherit constructs from the base YANG models without needing to redefine them within the sub-technology.

Relationship of OAM YANG model to generic (base) YANG model
In this document we adopt the concepts of the CFM [IEEE802.1ag] model and structure it such that it can be adapted to different connection-oriented OAM protocols.
At the top of the Model is the Maintenance Domain. Each Maintenance Domain is associated with a Maintenance Name and a Domain Level.
Under each Maintenance Domain there is one or more Maintenance Association (MA). In TRILL this can be per Fine-Grained Label.
Under each MA, there can be two or more MEPs (Maintenance End Points). MEPs are addressed by their respective technology specific address identifiers. The YANG model presented here provides flexibility to accommodate different addressing schemes.
In the vertical direction orthogonal to the Maintenance Domain, presented are the commands. Those, in YANG terms, are the RPC commands. These RPC commands provide uniform APIs for continuity check, connectivity verification, path discovery(traceroute) and their equivalents as well as other OAM commands.
The OAM entities in the generic YANG model defined here will be either explicitly or implicitly configured using any of the OAM tools. The OAM tools used here are limited to OAM toolset specified in section 5.1 of [RFC7276]. In order to facilitate zero-touch experience, this document defines a default mode of OAM. The default mode of OAM is referred to as the Base Mode and specifies default values for each of model parameters, such as Maintenance Domain Level, Name of the Maintenance Association, Addresses of MEPs and so on. The default values of these depend on the technology. Base Mode for TRILL is defined in [RFC7455]. Base mode for other technologies and future extensions developed in IETF will be defined in their corresponding documents.
It is important to note that, no specific enhancements are needed in the YANG model to support Base Mode. Implementations that comply with this document, by default implement the data nodes of the applicable technology. Data nodes of the Base Mode are read-only nodes.
The container "domains" is the top level container within the gen-oam module. Within the container "domains", separate list is maintained per MD. The MD list uses the key "md-name-string" for indexing. The "md-name-string" is a leaf and derived from type string. Additional name formats as defined in [IEEE802.1ag] or other standards can be included by association of the "md-name-format" with an identity-ref. The "md-name-format" indicates the format of the augmented "md-name". The "md-name" is presented as choice/case construct. Thus, it is easily augmentable by derivative work.

Within a given Maintenance Domain there can be one or more Maintenance Associations (MA(s)). MAs are represented as a list and indexed by the "ma-name-string". Similar to "md-name" defined previously, additional name formats can be added by augmenting the name-format identity-ref and adding applicable case statements to "ma-name".

The RPC model facilitates issuing commands to a "server" (in this case to the device that need to execute the OAM command) and obtain a response. RPC model defined here abstracts OAM specific commands in a technology independent manner.
There are several RPC commands defined for the purpose of OAM. In this section we present a snippet of the continuity check command for illustration purposes. Please refer to Section 4.5 for the complete data hierarchy and Section 5 for the YANG model.

Notification is sent on defect condition and defect clears with Maintenance Domain Name, MA Name, defect-type (The currently active defects), generating-mepid, and defect-message to indicate more details.
Grouping for monitoring statistics is to be used by YANG modules which Augment YANG to provide statistics due to pro-active OAM like CCM Messages. For example CCM Transmit, CCM Receive, CCM Errors, etc.

The Base Mode ('default mode' described in section 4) defines default configuration that MUST be present in the devices that comply with this document. Base Mode allows users to have "zero-touch" experience. Several parameters require technology specific definition.
In the Base Mode of operation, the MEP Address is by default the IP address of the interface on which the MEP is located.
In the Base Mode of operation, each device creates a single MEP associated with a virtual OAM port with no physical layer (NULL PHY). The MEP-ID associated with this MEP is zero (0). The choice of MEP-ID zero is explained below.
MEP-ID is 2 octet field by default. It is never used on the wire except when using CCM. It is important to have method that can derive MEP-ID of base mode in an automatic manner with no user intervention. IP address cannot be directly used for this purpose as the MEP-ID is much smaller field. For Base Mode of operation MEP-ID zero (0) is set as the default MEP-ID.
CCM packet use MEP-ID on the payload. CCM MUST NOT be used in the Base Mode. Hence CCM MUST be disabled on the Maintenance Association of the Base Mode.
If CCM is required, users MUST configure a separate Maintenance association and assign unique value for the corresponding MEP IDs.
CFM [IEEE802.1ag] defines MEP ID as an unsigned integer in the range 1 to 8191. In this document we propose extend the range to 0 to 65535. Value 0 is reserved for MEP-ID of Base Mode operation and MUST NOT be used for other purposes.
The ID of the Maintenance Association (MA-ID) [IEEE802.1ag] has a flexible format and includes two parts: Maintenance Domain Name and Short MA name. In the Base Mode of operation, the value of the Maintenance Domain Name must be the character string "GenericBaseMode" (excluding the quotes "). In the Base Mode operation, the Short MA Name format is set to 2-octet integer format (value 3 in Short MA Format field [IEEE802.1ag]) and the Short MA name set to 65532 (0xFFFC).
"ietf-connection-oriented-oam" model defined in this document provides technology-independent abstraction of key OAM constructs for connection-oriented protocols. This model can be further extended to include technology specific details, e.g., adding new data nodes with technology specific functions and parameters into proper anchor points of the base model, so as to develop a technology-specific connection-oriented OAM model.
This section demonstrates the usability of the connection-oriented YANG OAM data model to various connection-oriented OAM technologies, e.g., TRILL and MPLS-TP. Note that, in this section, we only present several snippets of technology-specific model extensions for illustrative purposes. The complete model extensions should be worked on in respective protocol working groups.
The TRILL YANG module is augmenting connection-oriented OAM module for both configuration and RPC commands.
The TRILL YANG module requires the base TRILL module ([I-D.ietf-trill-yang]) to be supported as there is a strong relationship between those modules.
The configuration extensions for connection-oriented OAM include MD configuration extension, Technology type extension, MA configuration extension, Connectivity-Context Extension, MEP Configuration Extension, ECMP extension. In the RPC extension, the continuity-check and path-discovery RPC are extended with TRILL specific parameters.
MD level configuration parameters are management information which can be inherited in the TRILL OAM model and set by connection-oriented base model as default values. For example domain name can be set to area-ID in the TRILL OAM case. In addition, at the Maintenance Domain level (i.e., at root level), domain data node can be augmented with technology type.
Note that MD level configuration parameters provides context information for the management system to correlate faults, defects, network failures with location information, which helps quickly identify root causes of network failures.
No TRILL technology type has been defined in the connection-oriented base model. Therefore a technology type extension is required in the TRILL OAM model. The technology type "trill" is defined as an identity that augments the base "technology-types" defined in the connection-oriented base model:
identity trill{ base co-oam:technology-types; description "trill type"; }
MA level configuration parameters are management information which can be inherited in the TRILL OAM model and set by connection-oriented base model as default values. In addition, at the Maintenance Association(MA) level (i.e.,at the second level), MA data node can be augmented with connectivity-context extension.
Note that MA level configuration parameters provides context information for the management system to correlate faults, defects, network failures with location information, which helps quickly identify root causes of network failures.
In TRILL OAM, one example of connectivity-context is either a 12 bit VLAN ID or a 24 bit Fine Grain Label. The connection-oriented base model defines a placeholder for context-id. This allows other technologies to easily augment that to include technology specific extensions. The snippet below depicts an example of augmenting connectivity-context to include either VLAN ID or Fine Grain Label.
augment /co-oam:domains/co-oam:domain /co-oam:mas/co-oam:ma/co-oam:connectivity-context: +--:(connectivity-context-vlan) | +--rw connectivity-context-vlan? vlan +--:(connectivity-context-fgl) +--rw connectivity-context-fgl? fgl
The MEP configuration definition in the connection-oriented base model already supports configuring the interface of MEP with either MAC address or IP address. In addition, the MEP address can be represented using a 2 octet RBridge Nickname in TRILL OAM . Hence, the TRILL OAM model augments the MEP configuration in base model to add a nickname case into the MEP address choice node as follows:
augment /co-oam:domains/co-oam:domain /co-oam:mas/co-oam:ma/co-oam:mep/co-oam:mep-address: +--:( mep-address-trill) | +--rw mep-address-trill? tril-rb-nickname
In addition, at the Maintenance Association Endpoint(MEP) level (i.e.,at the third level), MEP data node can be augmented with ECMP extension.
Since TRILL supports ECMP path selection, flow-entropy in TRILL is defined as a 96 octet field in the LIME model extension for TRILL OAM. The snippet below illustrates its extension.
augment /co-oam:domains/co-oam:domain /co-oam:mas/co-oam:ma/co-oam:mep: +--rw flow-entropy-trill? flow-entropy-trill augment /co-oam:domains/co-oam:domain /co-oam:mas/co-oam:ma/co-oam:mep/co-oam:session: +--rw flow-entropy-trill? flow-entropy-trill
In the TRILL OAM YANG model, the continuity-check and path-discovery RPC commands are extended with TRILL specific requirements. The snippet below depicts an example of illustrates the TRILL OAM RPC extension.
augment /co-oam:continuity-check/co-oam:input: +--ro (out-of-band)? | +--:(ipv4-address) | | +--ro ipv4-address? inet:ipv4-address | +--:(ipv6-address) | | +--ro ipv6-address? inet:ipv6-address | +--:(trill-nickname) | +--ro trill-nickname? tril-rb-nickname +--ro diagnostic-vlan? boolean augment /co-oam:continuity-check/co-oam:input: +--ro flow-entropy-trill? flow-entropy-trill augment /co-oam:continuity-check/co-oam:output: +--ro upstream-rbridge? tril-rb-nickname +--ro next-hop-rbridge* tril-rb-nickname augment /co-oam:path-discovery/co-oam:input: +--ro (out-of-band)? | +--:(ipv4-address) | | +--ro ipv4-address? inet:ipv4-address | +--:(ipv6-address) | | +--ro ipv6-address? inet:ipv6-address | +--:(trill-nickname) | +--ro trill-nickname? tril-rb-nickname +--ro diagnostic-vlan? boolean augment /co-oam:path-discovery/co-oam:input: +--ro flow-entropy-trill? flow-entropy-trill augment /co-oam:path-discovery/co-oam:output/co-oam:response: +--ro upstream-rbridge? tril-rb-nickname +--ro next-hop-rbridge* tril-rb-nickname
The MPLS-TP OAM YANG module can augment connection-oriented OAM Module with some technology-specific details. And the [mpls-tp-oam-yang] presents the YANG Data model for MPLS-TP OAM.
The configuration extensions for connection-oriented OAM include MD configuration extension, Technology type extension, Sub Technology Type Extension, MA configuration extension, MEP Configuration Extension.
MD level configuration parameters are management information which can be inherited in the MPLS-TP OAM model and set by LIME base model as default values. For example domain name can be set to area-ID or the provider's Autonomous System Number(ASN) [RFC6370] in the MPLS-TP OAM case. In addition, at the Maintenance Domain level (i.e.,at root level), domain data node can be augmented with technology type and sub-technology type.
Note that MD level configuration parameters provides context information for the management system to correlate faults, defects, network failures with location information, which helps quickly identify root causes of network failures
No MPLS-TP technology type has been defined in the connection-oriented base model, hence it is required in the MPLS-TP OAM model. The technology type "mpls-tp" is defined as an identity that augments the base "technology-types" defined in the connection-oriented base model:
identity mpls-tp{ base co-oam:technology-types; description "mpls-tp type"; }
In MPLS-TP, since different encapsulation types such as IP/UDP Encapsulation, PW-ACH encapsulation can be employed, the "technology- sub-type" data node is defined and added into the MPLS-TP OAM model to further identify the encapsulation types within the MPLS-TP OAM model. Based on it, we also define a technology sub-type for IP/UDP encapsulation and PW-ACH encapsulation. Other Encapsulation types can be defined in the same way. The snippet below depicts an example of several encapsulation types.
identity technology-sub-type { description "certain implementations can have different encapsulation types such as ip/udp, pw-ach and so on. Instead of defining separate models for each encapsulation, we define a technology sub-type to further identify different encapsulations. Technology sub-type is associated at the MA level"; } identity technology-sub-type-udp { base technology-sub-type; description "technology sub-type is IP/UDP encapsulation"; } identity technology-sub-type-ach { base technology-sub-type; description "technology sub-type is PW-ACH encapsulation"; } } augment "/co-oam:domains/co-oam:domain" +"/co-oam:mas/co-oam:ma { leaf technology-sub-type { type identityref { base technology-sub-type; } } }
MA level configuration parameters are management information which can be inherited in the MPLS-TP OAM model and set by connection-oriented base model as default values. One example of MA Name could be MEG LSP ID or MEG Section ID or MEG PW ID[RFC6370].
Note that MA level configuration parameters provides context information for the management system to correlate faults, defects, network failures with location information, which helps quickly identify root causes of network failures.
In MPLS-TP, MEP-ID is either a variable length label value in case of G-ACH encapsulation or a 2 octet unsigned integer value in case of IP/UDP encapsulation. One example of MEP-ID is MPLS-TP LSP_MEP_ID [RFC6370]. In the connection-oriented base model, MEP-ID is defined as a choice/case node which can supports an int32 value, and the same definition can be used for MPLS-TP with no further modification. In addition, at the Maintenance Association Endpoint(MEP) level (i.e.,at the third level), MEP data node can be augmented with Session extension and interface extension.
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 [RFC5246].
The NETCONF access control model [RFC6536] 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 YANG module which are writable/creatable/deletable (i.e., config true, which is the default). These data nodes may be considered sensitive 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:
/co-oam:domains/co-oam:domain/ /co-oam:domains/co-oam:domain/co-oam:mas/co-oam:ma /co-oam:domains/co-oam:domain/co-oam:mas/co-oam:ma/co-oam:mep /co-oam:domains/co-oam:domain/co-oam:mas/co-oam:ma/co-oam:mep/ co-oam:session
Unauthorized access to any of these lists can adversely affect OAM management system handling of end-to-end OAM and coordination of OAM within underlying network layers This may lead to inconsistent configuration, reporting, and presentation for the OAM mechanisms used to manage the network.

Giles Heron came up with the idea of developing a YANG model as a way of creating a unified OAM API set (interface), work in this document is largely an inspiration of that. Alexander Clemm provided many valuable tips, comments and remarks that helped to refine the YANG model presented in this document.
