                  Yang-Push Notification Capabilities
            draft-ietf-netconf-notification-capabilities-02

Abstract

   This document proposes a YANG module that allows a server to specify
   server capabilities related to "Subscription to YANG Datastores"
   (Yang-Push).  It proposes to use YANG Instance Data to document this
   information and make it already available at implementation time, but
   also allow it to be reported at runtime.

1.  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.

   The terms Yang-Push, On-change subscription and Periodic subscription
   are used as defined in [I-D.ietf-netconf-yang-push]

   On-change Notification Capability: The capability of the server to
   support On-change subscriptions.

   The term Server is used as defined in [RFC8342]

   Implementation-time information: Information about the server's
   behavior that is made available during the implementation of the
   server, available from a source other then a running server.

   Runtime-information: Information about the server's behavior that is
   available from the running server via management protocols such as
   NETCONF [RFC6241] or RESTCONF [RFC8040].

2.  Introduction

   As defined in [I-D.ietf-netconf-yang-push] a server may allow clients
   to subscribe to updates from a datastore and subsequently push such
   update notifications to the client.  Notifications may be sent
   periodically or on-change (more or less immediately after each
   change).

   A server supporting YANG-Push has a number of capabilities that are
   determined during the implementation of the server.  These include:

   o  Supported (reporting) periods for periodic subscriptions

   o  Maximum number of objects that can be sent in an update

   If the optional on-change feature is supported, these include:

   o  Supported dampening periods for on-change subscriptions

   o  The set of data nodes for which on-change notification is
      supported

   Servers MAY have limitations in how many update notifications and how
   many datastore node updates they can send out in a certain time-
   period.

   In some cases, a publisher supporting on-change notifications will
   not be able to push updates for some object types on-change.  Reasons
   for this might be that the value of the datastore node changes
   frequently (e.g. in-octets counter), that small object changes are
   frequent and meaningless (e.g., a temperature gauge changing 0.1
   degrees), or that the implementation is not capable of on-change
   notification for a particular object.  In those cases, it will be
   important for client applications to have a way to identify for which
   objects on-change notifications are supported and for which ones not.

   Faced with the reality that support for on-change notification does
   not mean that such notifications will be sent for any specific data
   node, client/management applications can not rely on the on-change
   functionality unless the client has some means to identify for which
   objects on-change notifications are supported.  YANG models are meant
   to be used as an interface contract.  Without identification of the
   data nodes actually supporting on-change, this contract would be
   incomplete.

   This document proposes a YANG module that allows a client to discover
   YANG-Push related capabilities both at implementation-time and run-
   time.

Lengyel, et al.          Expires January 6, 2020                [Page 3]
Internet-Draft     Yang-Push Notification Capabilities         July 2019

   Implementation time information is needed by Network Management
   System (NMS) implementers.  During NMS implementation for any
   functionality that depends on the notifications the information about
   on change notification capability is needed.  If the information is
   not available early in some document, but only as instance data from
   the network node once it is deployed, the NMS implementation will be
   delayed, because it has to wait for the network node to be ready.  In
   addition, the assumption that all NMS implementers will have a
   correctly configured network node available to retrieve data from, is
   an expensive proposition and may not always hold.  (An NMS may need
   to be able to handle many dozens of network node types.)  Often a
   fully functional NMS is a requirement for introducing a new network
   node type into a network, so delaying NMS readiness effectively also
   delays the time at which a new network node type can be introduced
   into the network.

   Implementation time information is needed by system integrators.
   When introducing a network node type into their network, operators
   often need to integrate the node type into their own management
   system.  The NMS may have management functions that depend on on-
   change notifications.  The network operator needs to plan his
   management practices and NMS implementation before he even decides to
   buy the specific network node type.  Moreover the decision to buy the
   node type sometimes depends on these management possibilities.

   Run-time information is needed:

   o  for any "purely model driven" client, e.g. a NETCONF-browser.  As
      long as it has a valid model to read the capability information,
      it does not care which data nodes send notification, it will just
      handle what is available.

   o  in case the capability might change during run-time e.g. due to
      licensing, HW constraints etc.

   o  to check that early, implementation time capability information
      about the capabilities is indeed what the server implements (is
      the supplied documentation correct?)

3.  Notification Capability Model

   It is a goal to provide Yang-Push notification capability information
   in a format that is:

   o  vendor independent

   o  formal

Lengyel, et al.          Expires January 6, 2020                [Page 4]
Internet-Draft     Yang-Push Notification Capabilities         July 2019

   o  identical for implementation-time and run-time

   The YANG module ietf-notification-capabilities is defined to provide
   the information.  It contains:

      a set of capabilities related to the amount of notifications the
      server can send out

      a default on-change notification capability separately for config
      false and config true data nodes

      an on-change-notification-capability list containing a potentially
      different true/false notification capability for a few data nodes
      in the schema tree.  Unless a node is in this list with a specific
      capability value, it inherits its on-change-notification-
      capability from its parent in the data tree, or from the relevant
      default values.  It is assumed that only a small number of nodes
      will be included in this list: special cases where the default
      behavior is not followed.  For a detailed description of the usage
      of this list see the description in the YANG module.

   The information SHALL be provided in two ways both following the
   ietf-notification-capabilities module:

   o  It SHALL be provided by the implementer as YANG instance data file
      complying to [I-D.ietf-netmod-yang-instance-file-format].  The
      file SHALL be available already in implementation time retrievable
      in a way that does not depend on a live network node.  E.g.
      download from product Website.

   o  It SHALL be available via NETCONF [RFC6241] or RESTCONF [RFC8040]
      from the live server during runtime.

4.  Security Considerations

   The YANG module specified in this document defines a schema for data
   that is designed to be accessed via network management protocols such
   as NETCONF [RFC6241] or RESTCONF [RFC8040].  The lowest NETCONF layer

Lengyel, et al.          Expires January 6, 2020               [Page 10]
Internet-Draft     Yang-Push Notification Capabilities         July 2019

   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
   [RFC8446].

   The Network Configuration Access Control Model (NACM) [RFC8341]
   provides the means to restrict access for particular NETCONF or

Appendix A.  Instance data examples

   The following example is instance-data describing the notification
   capabilities of a hypothetical "acme-switch".  The switch implements
   the running, candidate and operational datastores.  Every change can
   be reported on-change from running, nothing from candidate and all
   config=false data from operational.

         Figure 1: Notification Capabilities with default settings

   The following is the instance-data describing the notification
   capabilities of a hypothetical "acme-router".  The router implements
   the running, and operational datastores.  Every change can be
   reported on-change from running, but only config=true nodes and some
   config=false data from operational.  Interface statistics are not
   reported on-change only 2 important counters.
