YANG Data Node Self Explanation Tags
draft-tao-netmod-yang-node-tags-02
This document defines a method to tag data node associated with telemetry data in YANG Modules. This YANG data node tagging method can be used to provide input, instruction, indication to selection filter and filter queries of operational state on a server during a "pub/sub" service for YANG datastore updates and provide multiple dimensional network visibility analysis when the state of all subscriptions of a particular Subscriber to be fetched is huge, so that the amount of data to be streamed out to the destination can be greatly reduced and only targeted to the characteristics data.
An extension statement to be used to indicate YANG data node self explanation tags that SHOULD be added by the module implementation automatically (i.e., outside of configuration).
A YANG module [RFC7950] is defined, which augments Module tag model and provides a list of data node entries to allow for adding or removing of data node self explanation tags as well as viewing the set of self explanation tags associated with a YANG module.

As described [I.D-ietf-netmod-module-tags], the use of tags for classification and organization is fairly ubiquitous not only within IETF protocols, but in the internet itself (e.g., "#hashtags"). A module tag defined in [I.D-ietf-netmod-module-tags] is a string associated only with a module name at module level.
At the time of writing this document (2020), there are many data models that have been specified or are being specified by the IETF. They cover many of the networking protocols and techniques. However data objects defined by these technology specific data models might represent a portion of fault, configuration, accounting, performance, security management categories information (e.g., performance metric associated with specific data object type) in various different way, lack the same classification criteria and granularity,e.g., sensor data in hardware model is defined with fine granularity with value scale and value precision while interface model only provides statistics data for specific interface type.
This document defines data node self explanation tags and associates them with data nodes within YANG module, which
The data node self explanation tags can be used by the client to provide input, instruction, indication to selection filter and filter queries of configuration or operational state on a server based on these data node tags,.e.g.,return specific object type operational state related to system-management. NETCONF clients can discover data models with data node self explanation tags supported by a NETCONF server via <get-schema> operation. The data node self explanation tag capability can also be advertised via capability notification Model [I-D.netconf-notification-capabilities] by the NETCONF server or some place where offline document are kept. These self explanation tags may be registered as well as assigned during the module definition; assigned by implementations; or dynamically defined and set by users.
This document defines a YANG module [RFC7950] which augments module tag model and provides a list of data node entries to allow for adding or removing of self explanation tags as well as viewing the set of self explanation tags associated with a data node within YANG modules.
This document defines an extension statement to be used to indicate self explanation tags that SHOULD be added by the module implementation automatically (i.e., outside of configuration).
The YANG data model in this document conforms to the Network Management Datastore Architecture defined in [RFC8342].
The following is a list of already implemented and potential use cases.
Data node tags can be used to express multiple dimensional performance metric and properties associated with YANG data nodes or data objects modelled with YANG (See Figure 1).
----- ----- // \\ // \\ | Property+------+ +-------+ Property| \\ A // | | \\ B // -----+ +--V----------------V---+ ----- | YANG Data Node | | /Data Object | /---\ +--^----------------^---+ /---\ / \ | | / \ |Metric +-------+ +--------|Metric | \ A / +-------------+ \ B / \-+-/ | | \-+-/ | | Metric Group| | -------------| |--------------- +-------------+
Figure 1
The use of data node tags would be to help filter different discrete categories of YANG data nodes across YANG modules supported by a device. If data nodes across YANG modules are suitably tagged and learnt by the client from a live server, then an XPath query can be used by the client to list all related data nodes supported by a device with the same characteristics. Data node tags can also be used to help coordination when clients are interacting with various different devices with the same categories of YANG data node across different YANG modules. For example, one management client could mark some specific data node across modules implemented in various different devices with the same metric group tag, so consistent representation and reporting can be provided for YANG data nodes belonging to the same metric group (see Figure 2).

Figure 2
Another example is the management client could mark some data node across different level of YANG modules implemented in the device, the management system with the same service tag (e.g., L3VPN Service), so root cause can be identified efficiently during service-level agreements and performance monitoring or network failure troubleshooting.

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.
All data node tags SHOULD begin with a prefix indicating who owns their definition. An IANA registry (Section 7.1) is used to support registering data node tag prefixes. Currently 3 prefixes are defined.
No further structure is imposed by this document on the value following the registered prefix, and the value can contain any YANG type 'string' characters except carriage-returns, newlines and tabs. Therefore, designers, implementers, and users are free to add or not add any structure they may require to their own tag values.
An IETF tag is a data node tag that has the prefix "ietf:". All IETF data node tags are registered with IANA in a registry defined later in this document (Section 7.2).
A vendor tag is a tag that has the prefix "vendor:". These tags are defined by the vendor that implements the module, and are not registered; however, it is RECOMMENDED that the vendor include extra identification in the tag to avoid collisions such as using the enterpise or organization name following the "vendor:" prefix (e.g., vendor:vendor-defined-classifier).
A user tag is any tag that has the prefix "user:". These tags are defined by the user/administrator and are not meant to be registered. Users are not required to use the "user:" prefix; however, doing so is RECOMMENDED as it helps avoid prefix collisions.
Any tag not starting with the prefix "ietf:", "vendor:" or "user:" is reserved for future use. These tag values are not invalid, but simply reserved in the context of specifications (e.g., RFCs).
Tags can become associated with a data node within YANG module in a number of ways. Tags may be defined and associated at module design time, at implementation time without the need of live server, or via user administrative control . As the main consumer of data node tags are users, users may also remove any tag from a live server, no matter how the tag became associated with a data node within a YANG module.
A data node definition MAY indicate a set of data node tags to be added by the module implementer. These design time tags are indicated using the node-tag extension statement.
If the data node is defined in an IETF standards track document, the data node tags MUST be IETF Tags (2.1). Thus, new data node can drive the addition of new IETF tags to the IANA registry defined in Section 7.2, and the IANA registry can serve as a check against duplication.
An implementation MAY include additional tags associated with data node within a YANG module. These tags SHOULD be IETF Tags (i.e., registered) or vendor specific tags.
Data node tags of any kind, with or without a prefix, can be assigned and removed by the user from a live server using normal configuration mechanisms. In order to remove a data node tag from the operational datastore, the user adds a matching "masked-tag" entry for a given data node within the ietf-data-node-tags Module.
The tree associated with the "ietf-data-node-tags" module follows. The meaning of the symbols can be found in [RFC8340].

This section updates [RFC8407].
A module MAY indicate, using node-tag extension statements, a set of tags that are to be automatically associated with it (i.e., not added through configuration).

The module writer can use existing standard tags, or use new tags defined in the model definition, as appropriate. For IETF standardized modules new data node tags MUST be assigned in the IANA registry defined below, see Section Section 7.2.
IANA is asked to create a new registry "YANG Data Node Tag Prefixes" grouped under a new "Protocol" category named "YANG Data Node Tag Prefixes".
This registry allocates tag prefixes. All YANG data node tags SHOULD begin with one of the prefixes in this registry.
Prefix entries in this registry should be short strings consisting of lowercase ASCII alpha-numeric characters and a final ":" character.
The allocation policy for this registry is Specification Required [RFC8126]. The Reference and Assignee values should be sufficient to identify and contact the organization that has been allocated the prefix.
The initial values for this registry are as follows.
+----------+----------------------------------+-----------+----------+ | Prefix | Description | Reference | Assignee | +----------+----------------------------------+-----------+----------+ | ietf: | IETF Tags allocated in the IANA | [This | IETF | | | IETF YANG Data Node Tags registry| document] | | | | | | | |vendor: | Non-registered tags allocated by | [This | IETF | | | the module implementer. | document] | | | | | | | | user: | Non-registered tags allocated by | [This | IETF | | | and for the user. | document] | | +----------+----------------------------------+-----------+----------+
Other standards organizations (SDOs) wishing to allocate their own set of tags should allocate a prefix from this registry.
IANA is asked to create four new registries "IETF YANG Data Node Tags","IETF Metric Precision Tags","IETF Statistics Operation Tags","Node Service Tag" grouped under a new "Protocol" category "IETF YANG Data Node Tags". These four registries should be included below "YANG Data Node Tag Prefixes" when listed on the same page.
Four registries allocate tags that have the registered prefix "ietf:". New values should be well considered and not achievable through a combination of already existing IETF tags.
The allocation policy for these four registries is IETF Review [RFC8126].
The initial values for these eight registries are as follows.

This document registers a URI in the "IETF XML Registry" [RFC3688]. Following the format in [RFC3688], the following registration has been made:
URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-self-explaination-node-tags Registrant Contact: The IESG. XML: N/A; the requested URI is an XML namespace.
This document registers one YANG module in the "YANG Module Names" registry [RFC6020]. Following the format in [RFC6020], the following registration has been made:
name: ietf-self-explaination-node-tags namespace: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-self-explaination-node-tags prefix: ntags reference: RFC XXXX (RFC Ed.: replace XXX with actual RFC number and remove this note.)
The YANG module defined in this memo is designed to be accessed via the NETCONF protocol [RFC6241]. The lowest NETCONF layer is the secure transport layer and the mandatory-to-implement secure transport is SSH [RFC6242].
This document adds the ability to associate data node tag meta-data with YANG modules. This document does not define any actions based on these associations, and none are yet defined, and therefore it does not by itself introduce any new security considerations.
Users of the data node tag-meta data may define various actions to be taken based on the data node tag meta-data. These actions and their definitions are outside the scope of this document. Users will need to consider the security implications of any actions they choose to define.
