Technical Summary
This document describes a YANG data model for key chains. Key
chains have been implemented and deployed by most of
network equipment vendors. Providing a standard YANG model will
facilitate automated key distribution and non-disruptive key
rollover in a vendor independent way.
Working Group Summary
This draft has been thoroughly discussed in the WG, very good
feedback had been provided by SP and vendor community.
The draft adoption and progress has received full support from the
WG. All comments have been addressed. The draft is ready for
publication.
Document Quality
The draft went to many rounds of reviews by YANG-Doctors as well as
implementors, which resulted in a very high quality document.
There are existing implementations and multiple vendors have shown
significant interest in the topic.
Note that the most recent version for handling operational state in
the model may mean implementations need updates.
Personnel
Jeff Tantsura is the Document Shepherd.
Alia Atlas is the Responsible Area Director.
IESG Note
The most recent version is to handle the very recent change in
recommendation for handling operational state in YANG models. For
this model, there won't be system-learned operational state that
isn't tied to configuration state, so putting the state in as part of
the YANG model is the forward path.
