Abstract

This document describes a data model for the management of the Routing Information Protocol (RIP). Both RIP version 2 and RIPng are covered. The data model includes definitions for configuration, operational state, and Remote Procedure Calls (RPCs).

The YANG data model in this document conforms to the Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA).

Status of This Memo

This is an Internet Standards Track document.

This document is a product of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). It represents the consensus of the IETF community. It has received public review and has been approved for publication by the Internet Engineering Steering Group (IESG). Further information on Internet Standards is available in Section 2 of RFC 7841.

Information about the current status of this document, any errata, and how to provide feedback on it may be obtained at https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc8695.

1. Introduction

This document introduces a YANG [RFC7950] data model for the Routing Information Protocol (RIP) [RFC2453][RFC2080]. RIP was designed to work as an Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) in moderate-size Autonomous Systems (AS).

This YANG data model supports both RIP version 2 and RIPng. RIP version 2 (defined in [RFC2453]) supports IPv4. RIPng (defined in [RFC2080]) supports IPv6.

1.1. 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 following terms are defined in [RFC7950] and are not redefined here:

  • augment
  • data model
  • data node

1.2. Tree Diagrams

A simplified graphical representation of the data model is used in this document. The meaning of the symbols in these diagrams is defined in [RFC8340].

1.3. Prefixes in Data Node Names

In this document, names of data nodes, actions, and other data model objects are often used without a prefix, as long as it is clear from the context in which YANG module each name is defined. Otherwise, names are prefixed using the standard prefix associated with the corresponding YANG module, as shown in Table 1.

inet ietf-inet-types [RFC6991]
if ietf-interfaces [RFC8343]
ip ietf-ip [RFC8344]
rt ietf-routing [RFC8349]

2. Design of the Data Model

2.1. Scope of the Data Model

The data model covers RIP version 2 [RFC2453] and RIPng [RFC2080] protocols. The model is designed to be implemented on a device where RIP version 2 or RIPng is implemented, and can be used to:

  • Configure the RIP version 2 or RIPng protocol.
  • Manage the protocol operational behaviors.
  • Retrieve the protocol operational status.

The capabilities described in [RFC1724] are covered.

2.2. Relation to the Core Routing Framework

This data model augments the core routing data model "ietf-routing" specified in [RFC8349].

  +--rw routing
     +--rw router-id?
     +--rw control-plane-protocols
     |  +--rw control-plane-protocol* [type name]
     |     +--rw type
     |     +--rw name
     |     +--rw rip     <= Augmented by this Model
                 ...

The "rip" container instantiates a RIP entity that supports RIP version 2 or RIPng. Depending on the implementation of "ietf-routing", a RIP instance MAY belong to a logical router or network instance.

2.3. Protocol Configuration

The data model structure for the protocol configuration is as shown below:

  augment /rt:routing/rt:control-plane-protocols/
  rt:control-plane-protocol:
    +--rw rip
       +--rw <per instance configuration>
       +--rw interface* [interface]
          +--rw interface                  if:interface-ref
          +--rw <per interface configuration>
          +--rw neighbors {explicit-neighbors}?
          |  +--rw neighbor* [address]
          |     +--rw address    inet:ip-address
          |     +--rw <per neighbor configuration>

The data model allows the configuration of the following protocol entities:

  • Protocol instance (RIP version 2 or RIPng)
  • Interface
  • Neighbor

2.4. Protocol States

The data model structure for the protocol states is as shown below:

  augment /rt:routing/rt:control-plane-protocols/
  rt:control-plane-protocol:
    +--rw rip
       +--ro <per instance operational states>
       +--rw interface* [interface]
       |  +--rw interface                  if:interface-ref
       |  +--ro <per instance operational states>
       |  +--ro statistics {interface-statistics}?
       |     +--ro <per instance statistics>
       +--ro ipv4
       |  +--ro neighbors
       |  |  +--ro neighbor* [ipv4-address]
       |  |     +--ro <per neighbor IPv4 operational states>
       |  +--ro routes
       |     +--ro route* [ipv4-prefix]
       |        +--ro <IPv4 RIP route states>
       +--ro ipv6
       |  +--ro neighbors
       |  |  +--ro neighbor* [ipv6-address]
       |  |     +--ro <per neighbor IPv6 operational states>
       |  +--ro routes
       |     +--ro route* [ipv6-prefix]
       |        +--ro ipv6-prefix                    inet:ipv6-prefix
       |        +--ro <IPv4 RIP route states>
       +--ro statistics {global-statistics}?
          +--ro <per instance statistics>

This model conforms to the Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA) [RFC8342]. The operational state data is combined with the associated configuration data in the same hierarchy [RFC8407]. When protocol states are retrieved from the NMDA operational state datastore, the returned states cover all "config true" (rw) and "config false" (ro) nodes defined in the schema.

The model allows the retrieval of protocol states at the following levels:

  • Protocol instance (RIP version 2 or RIPng)
  • Interface
  • Neighbor
  • Route

2.5. RPC Operations

This model defines one RPC "clear-rip-route" that can be used to clear RIP routes from the routing table.

2.6. Notifications

This model does not define RIP-specific notifications. To enable notifications, the mechanisms defined in [RFC8639] and [RFC8641] can be used. This mechanism currently allows the user to do the following:

  • Subscribe to notifications on a per-client basis.
  • Specify subtree filters or XML Path Language (XPath) filters so that only interested contents will be sent.
  • Specify either periodic or on-demand notifications.

2.7. Optional Features

This model defines several features that are beyond the basic RIP configuration, and it is the responsibility of each vendor to decide whether to support a given feature on a device.

3. Tree Structure

This document defines the YANG module "ietf-rip", which has the following tree structure:

module: ietf-rip
  augment /rt:routing/rt:control-plane-protocols
/rt:control-plane-protocol:
    +--rw rip

Reference:
RFC 8695

6. 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 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 NETCONF Access Control Model (NACM) [RFC8341] provides the means to restrict access for particular NETCONF or RESTCONF users to a preconfigured subset of all available NETCONF or RESTCONF protocol operations and content.

There are a number of data nodes defined in this YANG module 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:

   /rt:routing/rt:control-plane-protocols/rt:control-plane-protocol/
   rip:rip

Unauthorized access to any data node of these subtrees can adversely affect the routing subsystem of both the local device and the network. This may lead to network malfunctions, delivery of packets to inappropriate destinations, and other problems.

Some of the readable data nodes in this YANG module 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:

   /rt:routing/rt:control-plane-protocols/rt:control-plane-protocol/
   rip:rip

Unauthorized access to any data node of these subtrees can disclose the operational state information of RIP on this device.

Some of the RPC operations in this YANG module may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. It is thus important to control access to these operations. These are the operations and their sensitivity/vulnerability:

RPC clear-rip-route:

Unauthorized access to the RPC above can adversely affect the routing subsystem of both the local device and the network. This may lead to network malfunctions, delivery of packets to inappropriate destinations, and other problems.
