A YANG Model for VPN Service Performance Monitoring
draft-www-bess-yang-vpn-service-pm-01
As specified in [RFC8345], the data model defined in [RFC8345] introduces vertical layering relationships between networks that can be augmented to cover network/service topologies. This document defines a YANG Model for VPN Service Performance Monitoring that can be used to monitor and manage network Performance between VPN sites and it is an augmentation to the I2RS network topology YANG data model.

[RFC8345] defines an abstract YANG data model for network/service topologies and inventories. Service topology in [RFC8345] includes the a virtual topology for a service layer above the L1, L2, and L3 layers. This virtual topology has the generic topology elements of node,link, and terminating point. One typical example of a service topology is described in figure 3 of [RFC8345],two VPN service topologies instantiated over a common L3 topology. Each VPN service topology is mapped onto a subset of nodes from the common L3 topology.
In [RFC8299], the 3 types of VPN service topologies proposed for L3VPN service data model are any to any, hub and spoke, hub and spoke disjoint. These VPN topology types can be used to describe how VPN sites are communicating with each other.
This document defines a YANG Model for VPN Service Performance Monitoring that can be used to monitor and manage network Performance between VPN sites and it is an augmentation to the I2RS network topology YANG data model.
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 [RFC2119]. In this document, these words will appear with that interpretation only when in ALL CAPS. Lower case uses of these words are not to be interpreted as carrying [RFC2119] significance.
The following notations are used within the data tree and carry the meaning as below.
<status> <flags> <name> <opts> <type> <status> is one of: + for current <flags> is one of: rw for configuration data ro for non-configuration data -x for rpcs -n for notifications -w for writable <name> is the name of the node If the node is augmented into the tree from another module, its name is printed as <prefix>:<name>. <opts> is one of: ? for an optional leaf or choice ! for a presence container * for a leaf-list or list [<keys>] for a list's keys (choice)/:(case) Parentheses enclose choice and case nodes, and case nodes are also marked with a colon (":") <type> is the name of the type for leafs and leaf-lists
Each node is printed as:
As specified in [RFC8345], the data model defined in [RFC8345] can describe vertical layering relationships between networks that can be augmented to cover network/service topologies. The following figure describes relationships between L3VPN Service Topo and Underlying network:
VPN-1 VPN-2 / \ L3VPN-Service-topology 1 L3VPN-Service-topology-2 / | \ / | \ Site-1A site-1B site1-C site-2A Site-2B Site-2C Top-Down | | | | | | Service Topo CE CE CE CE CE CE | | | | | | PE PE PE PE PE PE ====|==========|=======|=======|=========|=====|=================== +-------+ | \ / / | Bottoms-up | | \ / / | Network | | /\ / | topology | | / \ | | | | | | | | node1 node2 node3 node4 node5 node6
layering relationships between L3VPN Service Topo and Underlying network
As shown in figure 1, the Site-1,A,B,C are mapped to node 1,2,3 while Site-2 A,B,C are mapped to node 4,5,6 in the underlying physical network. In this figure, an L3SM has two VPN services topologies with both built on top of one common underlying physical network.
L3VPN service topology 1 is hub and spoke topology while L3VPN service topology 2 is hub and spoke disjoint topology. In L3VPN service topology1, Site-1 A plays the role of hub while Site-2 B and C plays the role of spoke. In L3VPN service topoogy2, Site-2 A and B play the role of hub while Site-2 C plays the role of spoke.
This module describes VPN Service assurance that can be used to monitor and manage network Performance between VPN sites and it is a augmentation to the I2RS network topology YANG data model. The performance monitoring data is augmented to service topology.
+------------+ +---------------------+ |I2RS Network| | VPN Service | |Topo Model |<---------|Peformance Monitoring| +------------+ augments | Model | +---------------------+
An SP must be able to manage the capabilities and characteristics of their VPN services when VPN sites are setup to communicate with each other. VPN service topology such as hub and spoke describes how these VPN sites are communicating with each other.
As described in section 2, once the mapping between VPN Service topology and underlying physical network has been setup, the performance monitoring data per link in the underlying network can be collected using network performance measurement method such as MPLS Loss and Delay Measurement [RFC6374]. The performance monitoring information reflecting the quality of the VPN service such as end to end network performance data between VPN sites can be aggregated or calculated using PCEP solution [RFC5440] or LMAP solution [RFC8194]. The information can be fed into data source such as the management system or network devices. The measurement interval and report interval associated with these performance data usually depends on configuration parameters.
Some applications such as service-assurance applications, which must maintain a continuous view of operational data and state, can use subscription model [I-D.ietf-netconf-yang-push] to subscribe to the VPN service performance data they are interested in, at the data source.
The data source can then use VPN service assurance model and push model [I-D.ietf-netconf-yang-push] to publish specific telemetry data to target recipients.
To obtain a snapshot of a large amount of performance data from the network element, service-assurance applications can also use polling based solution such as RPC model to fetch performance data on demand.
This document defines the YANG module "ietf-vpn-svc-pm", which has the following structure

This example shows the way for a client to subscribe for the Performance monitoring information for VPN service between VPN sites. The performance monitoring parameter that the client is interested in is end to end loss attribute.

This example shows the way for the client to use RPC model to fetch performance data on demand,e.g., the client requests packet-loss-count between PE1 in site 1 and PE2 in site 2 belonging to VPN1.

The YANG modules defined in this document MAY be accessed via the RESTCONF protocol [RFC8040] or NETCONF protocol ([RFC6241]). The lowest RESTCONF or NETCONF layer requires that the transport-layer protocol provides both data integrity and confidentiality, see Section 2 in [RFC8040] and [RFC6241]. 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 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:
