1.  Introduction

   This document provides a YANG [RFC6020] data model that defines the
   required data for the registration interface between Security
   Controller and Developer's Management System to dynamically manage a
   pool of NSF instances.  This document defines a YANG data model based
   on the [i2nsf-reg-inf-im].  The terms used in this document are
   defined in [i2nsf-terminology].

2.  Requirements Language

   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].

3.  Terminology

   This document uses the terminology described in [i2nsf-terminology],
   [capability-im], [i2nsf-framework], [nsf-triggered-steering],
   [supa-policy-data-model], and [supa-policy-info-model].

Internet-Draft      Registration Interface Data Model       October 2017

   o  Network Security Function (NSF): A function that is responsible
      for specific treatment of received packets.  A Network Security
      Function can act at various layers of a protocol stack (e.g., at
      the network layer or other OSI layers).  Sample Network Security
      Service Functions are as follows: Firewall, Intrusion Prevention/
      Detection System (IPS/IDS), Deep Packet Inspection (DPI),
      Application Visibility and Control (AVC), network virus and
      malware scanning, sandbox, Data Loss Prevention (DLP), Distributed
      Denial of Service (DDoS) mitigation and TLS proxy.
      [nsf-triggered-steering]

   o  Advanced Inspection/Action: As like the I2NSF information model
      for NSF facing interface [capability-im], Advanced Inspection/
      Action means that a security function calls another security
      function for further inspection based on its own inspection
      result. [nsf-triggered-steering]

   o  Network Security Function Profile (NSF Profile): NSF Profile
      specifies the inspection capabilities of the associated NSF
      instance.  Each NSF instance has its own NSF Profile to specify
      the type of security service it provides and its resource capacity
      etc. [nsf-triggered-steering]

   o  Data Model: A data model is a representation of concepts of
      interest to an environment in a form that is dependent on data
      repository, data definition language, query language,
      implementation language, and protocol. [supa-policy-info-model]

   o  Information Model: An information model is a representation of
      concepts of interest to an environment in a form that is
      independent of data repository, data definition language, query
      language, implementation language, and protocol.
      [supa-policy-info-model]

3.1.  Tree Diagrams

   A simplified graphical representation of the data model is used in
   this document.  The meaning of the symbols in these diagrams
   [i2rs-rib-data-model] is as follows:

      Brackets "[" and "]" enclose list keys.

      Abbreviations before data node names: "rw" means configuration
      (read-write) and "ro" state data (read-only).

      Symbols after data node names: "?" means an optional node and "*"
      denotes a "list" and "leaf-list".

Internet-Draft      Registration Interface Data Model       October 2017

      Parentheses enclose choice and case nodes, and case nodes are also
      marked with a colon (":").

      Ellipsis ("...") stands for contents of subtrees that are not
      shown.

4.  High-Level YANG

   This section provides an overview of the high level YANG.

4.1.  Registration Interface

   module : ietf-i2nsf-regs-interface-model
     +--rw regs-req
     |  uses i2nsf-regs-req
     +--rw instance-mgnt-req
     |  uses i2nsf-instance-mgnt-req

         Figure 1: High-Level YANG of I2NSF Registration Interface

   Each of these sections mirror sections of [i2nsf-reg-inf-im].

4.2.  Registration Request

   This section expands the i2nsf-regs-req in Figure 1.

   Registration Request
     +--rw i2nsf-regs-req
       +--rw nsf-profile
       |  uses i2nsf-nsf-profile
       +--rw nsf-access-info
       |  uses i2nsf-nsf-access-info

          Figure 2: High-Level YANG of I2NSF Registration Request

   Registration Request contains the capability information of newly
   created NSF to notify its capability to Security Controller.  The
   request also contains Network Access Information so that the Security
   Controller can access the NSF.

4.3.  Instance Management Request

   This section expands the i2nsf-instance-mgnt-req in Figure 1.

Hyun, et al.               Expires May 3, 2018                  [Page 4]
Internet-Draft      Registration Interface Data Model       October 2017

   Instance Management Request
     +--rw i2nsf-instance-mgnt-req
       +--rw req-level uint16
       +--rw req-id uint64
       +--rw (req-type)?
         +--rw (instanciation-request)
           +--rw nsf-profile
           |  uses i2nsf-nsf-profile
         +--rw (deinstanciation-request)
           +--rw nsf-access-info
           |  uses i2nsf-nsf-access-info

         Figure 3: High-Level YANG of I2NSF Instance Mgnt Request

   Instance management request consists of two types: instanciation-
   request and deinstanciation-request.  The instanciation-request is
   used to request generation of a new NSF instance with NSF Profile
   which specifies required NSF capability information.  The
   deinstanciation-request is used to remove an existing NSF with NSF
   Access Information.

4.4.  NSF Profile

   This section expands the i2nsf-nsf-profile in Figure 2 and Figure 3.

   NSF Profile
     +--rw i2nsf-nsf-profile
       +--rw i2nsf-capability
       |  uses ietf-i2nsf-capability
       +--rw performance-capability
       |  uses i2nsf-nsf-performance-caps

              Figure 4: High-Level YANG of I2NSF NSF Profile

   In Figure 4, ietf-i2nsf-capability refers module ietf-i2nsf-
   capability in [i2nsf-capability-dm].  We add the performance
   capability because it is absent in [i2nsf-capability-dm].

4.5.  NSF Access Information

   This section expands the i2nsf-nsf-access-info in Figure 2 and
   Figure 3.

Hyun, et al.               Expires May 3, 2018                  [Page 5]
Internet-Draft      Registration Interface Data Model       October 2017

   NSF Access Information
     +--rw i2nsf-nsf-access-info
       +--rw nsf-address  inet:ipv4-address
       +--rw nsf-port-address inet:port-number

        Figure 5: High-Level YANG of I2NSF NSF Access Informantion

   This information is used by other components to access an NSF.

4.6.  NSF Performance Capability

   This section expands the i2nsf-nsf-performance-caps in Figure 4.

   NSF Performance Capability
     +--rw i2nsf-nsf-performance-caps
      +--rw processing
      |   +--rw processing-average uint16
      |   +--rw processing-peak uint16
      +--rw bandwidth
      |   +--rw outbound
      |   |  +--rw outbound-average uint16
      |   |  +--rw outbound-peak uint16
      |   +--rw inbound
      |   |  +--rw inbound-average uint16
      |   |  +--rw inbound-peak uint16

       Figure 6: High-Level YANG of I2NSF NSF Performance Capability

   When the Security Controller requests the Developer Management System
   to create a new NSF instance, the performance capability is used to
   specify the performance requirements of the new instance.

5.  YANG Modules

   This section introduces a YANG module for the information model of
   the required data for the registration interface between Security
   Controller and Developer's Management System, as defined in the
   [i2nsf-reg-inf-im].

6.  Security Considerations

   The information model of the registration interface is based on the
   I2NSF framework without any architectural changes.  Thus, this
   document shares the security considerations of the I2NSF framwork
   architecture that are specified in [i2nsf-framework] for the purpose
   of achieving secure communication among components in the proposed
   architecture.

Appendix A.  Changes from draft-hyun-i2nsf-registration-interface-dm-01

   The following changes are made from draft-hyun-i2nsf-registration-
   interface-dm-00:

   o  The description of NSF Performance Capability is specified in more
      detail than the previous version.

   o  The description of YANG data module for Registration interface was
      updated.

   The following changes are made from draft-hyun-i2nsf-registration-
   interface-dm-01:

   o  We simplified the performance capability by abstracting away the
      details of each type of resources.

   o  We replaced the existing dynamic life cycle management sub-model
      with the instance management sub-model.

   o  The description of YANG data module for Registration interface was
      updated.

   o  The references were updated to reflect the latest documents.
