YANG Data Model for RIB Extensions
draft-acee-rtgwg-yang-rib-extend-00.txt
Abstract
The Routing Information Base (RIB) is a list of routes and their
corresponding administrative data and operational state.
The document [ROUTING-CFG] defines the basic building blocks for RIB,
and this model augments it to support multiple next-hops (aka, paths)
for each route as well as additional attributes.

1. Introduction
This document defines a YANG, [YANG], data model which extends the
generic data model for RIB by augmenting the ietf-routing model as
defined in [ROUTING-CFG].
RIB is a collection of best routes from all routing protocols.
Within a protocol routes are selected based on the metrics in use by
that protocol, and the protocol install its best routes to RIB. RIB
selects the best route by comparing the route preference (aka,
administrative distance) of the associated protocol.
The augmentations described herein extend the RIB to support multiple
paths per route, route metrics, and administrative tags.
1.1. Requirements Notation
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 [RFC-KEYWORDS].
2. Design of the Model
The YANG definitions in this document augment the ietf-routing model
defined in [ROUTING-CFG], which provides a basis for routing system
data model development. Together with modules defined in
Lindem & Qu Expires April 18, 2016 [Page 2]
Internet-Draft YANG RIB Extensions October 2015
[ROUTING-CFG], a generic RIB Yang model is defined to implement and
monitor RIB.
The models in [ROUTING-CFG] also define the basic configuration and
operational state for both IPv4 and IPv6 static routes and this
document also provides augmentations for static routes to support
multiple next-hop and more next-hop attributes.
2.1. RIB next-hop dampening
A feature "next-hop-dampen" is defined. Implementations that support
this feature can enable/disable RIB dampening.
2.2. Multiple next-hops
Both Ipv4 and IPv6 static route configuration defined in
[ROUTING-CFG] have been augmented with a multi-next-hop option.
A static route/prefix can be configured to have multiple next-hops,
each with their own tag and route preference.
In RIB, a route may have multiple next-hops. They can be either
equal cost multiple paths (ECMP), or they may have different metrics.
2.3. Repair path
The loop-free alternate (LFA) Fast Reroute (FRR) pre-computes repair
paths by routing protocols, and RIB stores the best repair path.
A repair path is augmented in RIB operation state for each path.
3. RIB Extensions Model Tree
A simplified graphical representation of the augmentations described
herein is included below.
The meaning of the symbols in this diagrams is as follows:
o Brackets "[" and "]" enclose list keys.
o Curly braces "{" and "}" contain names of optional features that
make the corresponding node conditional.
o Abbreviations before data node names: "rw" means configuration
(read-write), "ro" state data (read-only), "-x" RPC operations,
and "-n" notifications.
Lindem & Qu Expires April 18, 2016 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft YANG RIB Extensions October 2015
o Symbols after data node names: "?" means an optional node, "!" a
container with presence, and "*" denotes a "list" or "leaf-list".
o Parentheses enclose choice and case nodes, and case nodes are also
marked with a colon (":").
o Ellipsis ("...") stands for contents of subtrees that are not
shown.

5. Security Considerations
The YANG model augmentations defined herein do not introduce any
security issues other than those already discussed in [ROUTING-CFG],
and [NETCONF]. If confidentiality is desired, the underlying NETCONF
communication should be utilized as described in [NETCONF-SSH].
6. IANA Considerations
This document registers a URI in the IETF XML registry
[XML-REGISTRY]. Following the format in RFC 3688, the following
registration is requested to be made:
URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-rib
Registrant Contact: The IESG.
XML: N/A, the requested URI is an XML namespace.
This document registers a YANG module in the YANG Module Names
registry [YANG].
