This document defines a YANG data model for the configuration and management of RSVP (Resource Reservation Protocol) to establish Traffic-Engineered (TE) Label-Switched Paths (LSPs) for MPLS (Multi- Protocol Label Switching) and other technologies. The model defines a generic RSVP-TE module for signaling LSPs that are technology agnostic. The generic RSVP-TE module is to be augmented by technology specific RSVP-TE modules that define technology specific data. This document also defines the augmentation for RSVP-TE MPLS LSPs model. This model covers data for the configuration, operational state, remote procedural calls, and event notifications. |
| | A YANG Data Model for requesting path computation |
| |
|
There are scenarios, typically in a hierarchical Software-Defined Networking (SDN) context, where the topology information provided by a Traffic Engineering (TE) network provider may be insufficient for its client to perform multi-domain path computation. In these cases the client would need to request the TE network provider to compute some intra-domain paths to be used by the client to choose the optimal multi-domain paths. This document provides a mechanism to request path computation by augmenting the Remote Procedure Calls (RPCs) defined in RFC YYYY. [RFC EDITOR NOTE: Please replace RFC YYYY with the RFC number of draft-ietf-teas-yang-te once it has been published. Moreover, this document describes some use cases where the path computation request, via YANG-based protocols (e.g., NETCONF or RESTCONF), can be needed. |
| | Traffic Engineering (TE) and Service Mapping YANG Data Model |
| |
|
This document provides a YANG data model to map customer service models (e.g., L3VPN Service Delivery model) to Traffic Engineering (TE) models (e.g., the TE Tunnel or the Virtual Network (VN) model). These models are referred to as the TE Service Mapping Model and are applicable generically to the operator's need for seamless control and management of their VPN services with underlying TE support. The models are principally used for monitoring and diagnostics of the management systems to show how the service requests are mapped onto underlying network resources and TE models. |
| | YANG models for Virtual Network (VN)/TE Performance Monitoring Telemetry and Scaling Intent Autonomics |
| |
|
This document provides YANG data models that describe the performance monitoring parameters and scaling intent mechanisms for Traffic Engineering (TE) tunnels and Virtual Networks (VNs). Their performance monitoring parameters are exposed as the key telemetry data for tunnels and VNs. The models presented in this document allow customers to subscribe to and monitor the key performance data of the TE-tunnel or the VN. The models also provide customers with the ability to program autonomic scaling intent mechanisms on the level of TE-tunnel as well as VN. |

This document explores the applicability of the Abstraction and Control of TE Networks (ACTN) architecture to Packet Optical Integration (POI) within the context of IP/MPLS and optical internetworking. It examines the YANG data models defined by the IETF that enable an ACTN-based deployment architecture and highlights specific scenarios pertinent to Service Providers. Existing IETF protocols and data models are identified for each multi-technology scenario (packet over optical), particularly emphasising the Multi-Domain Service Coordinator to Provisioning Network Controller Interface (MPI) within the ACTN architecture |
| | Applicability of Abstraction and Control of Traffic Engineered Networks (ACTN) to IETF Network Slicing |
| |
|
Network abstraction is a technique that can be applied to a network domain to obtain a view of potential connectivity across the network by utilizing a set of policies to select network resources. Network slicing is an approach to network operations that builds on the concept of network abstraction to provide programmability, flexibility, and modularity. It may use techniques such as Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Network Function Virtualization (NFV) to create multiple logical or virtual networks, each tailored for a set of services that share the same set of requirements. Abstraction and Control of Traffic Engineered Networks (ACTN) is described in RFC 8453. It defines an SDN-based architecture that relies on the concept of network and service abstraction to detach network and service control from the underlying data plane. This document outlines the applicability of ACTN to network slicing in a Traffic Engineered (TE) network that utilizes IETF technologies. It also identifies the features of network slicing not currently within the scope of ACTN and indicates where ACTN might be extended. |

Realizing network slices may require the Service Provider to have the ability to partition a physical network into multiple logical networks of varying sizes, structures, and functions so that each slice can be dedicated to specific services or customers. Multiple network slices can be realized on the same network while ensuring slice elasticity in terms of network resource allocation. This document describes a scalable solution to realize network slicing in IP/MPLS networks by supporting multiple services on top of a single physical network by by requiring compliant domains and nodes to provide forwarding treatment (scheduling, drop policy, resource usage) based on slice identifiers. |

A network slice offers connectivity services to a network slice customer with specific Service Level Objectives (SLOs) and Service Level Expectations (SLEs) over a common underlay network. RFC 9543 describes a framework for network slices built using networks that use IETF technologies. As part of that framework, the Network Resource Partition (NRP) is introduced as a set of network resources that are allocated from the underlay network to carry a specific set of network slice service traffic and meet specific SLOs and SLEs. As the demand for network slices increases, scalability becomes an important factor. Although the scalability of network slices can be improved by mapping a group of network slices to a single NRP, that design may not be suitable or possible for all deployments, thus there are concerns about the scalability of NRPs themselves. This document discusses some considerations for NRP scalability in the control and data planes. It also investigates a set of optimization mechanisms. |
| | IETF Network Slice Application in 3GPP 5G End-to-End Network Slice |
| |
|
Network Slicing is one of the core features of 5G defined in 3GPP, which provides different network service as independent logical networks. To provide 5G network slices services, an end-to-end network slice has to span three network segments: Radio Access Network (RAN), Mobile Core Network (CN) and Transport Network (TN). This document describes the application of the IETF network slice framework in providing 5G end-to-end network slices, including network slice mapping in the management, control and data planes. |
| | IETF Network Slice Controller and its Associated Data Models |
| |
|
This document describes an approach for structuring the IETF Network Slice Controller as well as how to use different data models being defined for IETF Network Slice Service provision (and how they are related). It is not the purpose of this document to standardize or constrain the implementation the IETF Network Slice Controller. |

RFC 9543 describes a framework for Network Slices in networks built from IETF technologies. In this framework, the network resource partition (NRP) is introduced as a collection of network resources allocated from the underlay network to carry a specific set of Network Slice Service traffic and meet specific Service Level Objective (SLO) and Service Level Expectation (SLE) characteristics. This document defines two YANG data models for Network Resource Partitions (NRPs): a network-level model for policy configuration by a Network Slice Controller, and a device-level model for configuration of individual network elements. These models enable automated provisioning of NRPs in IP/MPLS and Segment Routing (SR) networks, supporting scalable realization of RFC 9543 Network Slice Services. |
| | A YANG Data Model for MPLS-TE Topology |
| |
|
This document defines a YANG data model for representing, retrieving, and manipulating MPLS-TE network topologies. It is based on and augments existing YANG models that describe network and traffic engineering packet network topologies. This document also defines a collection of common YANG data types and groupings specific to MPLS-TE. These common types and groupings are intended to be imported by modules that model MPLS-TE technology- specific configuration and state capabilities. The YANG models defined in this document can also be used for MPLS Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) network topologies. |
| | Profiles for Traffic Engineering (TE) Topology Data Model and Applicability to non-TE-centric Use Cases |

| | IETF Network Slice Topology YANG Data Model |
| |
|
An RFC 9543 network slice customer may utilize intent-based topologies to express resource reservation intentions within the provider's network. These customer-defined intent topologies allow customers to request shared resources for future connections that can be flexibly allocated and customized. Additionally, they provide an extensive level of control over underlay service paths within the network slice. This document describes a YANG data model for expressing customer intent topologies which can be used to enhance the RFC 9543 Network Slice Services in specific use cases, such as Network wholesale scenarios, where both topology and connectivity intents need to be expressed. |

This document extends the analysis of the applicability of Abstraction and Control of TE Networks (ACTN) architecture to Packet Optical Integration (POI) to cover multi-layer service assurance scenarios. Specifically, the ACTN architecture enables the detection and handling of different failures that may happen either at the optical or the packet layer. It is assumed that the underlying transport optical network carries end-to-end IP services such as L2VPN or L3VPN connectivity services, with specific Service Level Agreement (SLA) requirements. Existing IETF protocols and data models are identified for each multi-layer (packet over optical) service assurance scenario with a specific focus on the MPI (Multi-Domain Service Coordinator to Provisioning Network Controllers Interface) in the ACTN architecture. |

| | Realization of Composite IETF Network Slices |
| |
|
A network slice offers connectivity services to a network slice customer with specific Service Level Objectives (SLOs) and Service Level Expectations (SLEs) over a common underlay network. RFC 9543 describes a framework for network slices built in networks that use IETF technologies. As part of that framework, the Network Resource Partition (NRP) is introduced as a collection of network resources that are allocated from the underlay network to carry a specific set of network slice service traffic and meet specific SLOs and SLEs. In some network scenarios, network slices using IETF technologies may span multiple network domains, and they may be composed hierarchically, which means a network slice itself may be further sliced. In the context of 5G, a 5G end-to-end network slice consists of three different types of network technology segments: Radio Access Network (RAN), Transport Network (TN) and Core Network (CN). The transport segments of the 5G end-to-end network slice can be provided using network slices described in RFC 9543. This document first describes the possible use cases of composite network slices built in networks that use IETF network technologies, then it provides considerations about the realization of composite network slices. For the multi-domain network slices, an Inter-Domain Network Resource Partition Identifier (Inter-domain NRP ID) may be introduced. For hierarchical network slices, the structure of the NRP ID is discussed. And for the interaction between IETF network slices with 5G network slices, the identifiers of the 5G network slices may be introduced into IETF networks. These network slice- related identifiers may be used in the data plane, control plane and management plane of the network for the instantiation and management of composite network slices. This document also describes the management considerations of composite network slices. |
