             YANG Groupings for TCP Clients and TCP Servers
               draft-kwatsen-netconf-tcp-client-server-02

Abstract

   This document defines three YANG modules: the first defines a
   grouping for configuring a generic TCP client, the second defines a
   grouping for configuring a generic TCP server, and the third defines
   a grouping common to the TCP clients and TCP servers.

1.  Introduction

   This document defines three YANG 1.1 [RFC7950] modules: the first
   defines a grouping for configuring a generic TCP client, the second
   defines a grouping for configuring a generic TCP server, and the
   third defines a grouping common to the TCP clients and TCP servers.

Internet-Draft    Groupings for TCP Clients and Servers       April 2019


   It is intended that these groupings will be used either standalone,
   for TCP-based protocols, are as part of a stack of protocol-specific
   configuration models.  For instance, these groupings could help
   define the configuration module for SSH, TLS, or HTTP based
   application.

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.  The TCP Client Model

3.1.  Tree Diagram

   This section provides a tree diagram [RFC8340] for the "ietf-tcp-
   client" module.

6.  Security Considerations

   The YANG modules defined in this document are designed to be accessed
   via YANG based management protocols, such as NETCONF [RFC6241] and
   RESTCONF [RFC8040].  Both of these protocols have mandatory-to-
   implement secure transport layers (e.g., SSH, TCP) with mutual
   authentication.

Internet-Draft    Groupings for TCP Clients and Servers       April 2019


   The NETCONF access control model (NACM) [RFC8341] provides the means
   to restrict access for particular users to a pre-configured subset of
   all available protocol operations and content.

   Since the modules defined in this document only define groupings,
   these considerations are primarily for the designers of other modules
   that use these groupings.

   There are a number of data nodes defined in the YANG modules 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:

      None of the writable/creatable/deletable data nodes             in
    the YANG modules defined in this document are considered more
                sensitive or vulnerable then standard configuration.

   Some of the readable data nodes in the YANG modules may be considered
   sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments.  It is thus
   important to control read access (e.g., via get, get-config, or
   notification) to these data nodes.  These are the subtrees and data
   nodes and their sensitivity/vulnerability:

      None of the readable data nodes in the YANG modules
   defined in this document are considered more sensitive or vulnerable
                then standard configuration.

   This document does not define any RPC actions and hence this section
   does not consider the security of RPCs.

7.  IANA Considerations

7.1.  The IETF XML Registry

   This document registers two URIs in the "ns" subregistry of the IETF
   XML Registry [RFC3688].  Following the format in [RFC3688], the
   following registrations are requested:

      URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-tcp-client
      Registrant Contact: The NETCONF WG of the IETF.
      XML: N/A, the requested URI is an XML namespace.

      URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-tcp-server
      Registrant Contact: The NETCONF WG of the IETF.
      XML: N/A, the requested URI is an XML namespace.

7.2.  The YANG Module Names Registry

   This document registers two YANG modules in the YANG Module Names
   registry [RFC6020].  Following the format in [RFC6020], the following
   registrations are requested:

      name:         ietf-tcp-common
      namespace:    urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-tcp-common
      prefix:       tcpcmn
      reference:    RFC XXXX

      name:         ietf-tcp-client
      namespace:    urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-tcp-client
      prefix:       tcpc
      reference:    RFC XXXX

      name:         ietf-tcp-server
      namespace:    urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-tcp-server
      prefix:       tcps
