This document defines a YANG [RFC7950] data model "ietf-ipv6-nd" to configure and manage IPv6 Neighbor Discovery (ND) and related functions, including IPv6 address resolution [RFC4861], redirect function [RFC4861], proxy Neighbor Advertisement [RFC4861], Neighbor Unreachability Detection (NUD) [RFC4861], Duplicate Address Detection (DAD) [RFC4862], and Enhanced Duplicate Address Detection [RFC7527].¶
Basic neighbor management functionality is supported by the "ietf-ip" YANG data model [RFC8344], and there is already a draft [I-D.ietf-intarea-arp-yang-model] extending the basic ARP YANG functionality to cover optional ARP features and related statistics, which applies only to IPv4. Thus, an extension for IPv6 is required to maintain the IPv6 Neighbor Cache entries.¶
[RFC4861] specifies the Neighbor Discovery protocol for IPv6, and [RFC4862] specifies related functions. This document covers IPv6 address resolution [RFC4861], redirect function [RFC4861], proxy Neighbor Advertisement [RFC4861], NUD [RFC4861], DAD [RFC4862], and Enhanced DAD [RFC7527]. Other functions, such as Router and Prefix Discovery [RFC4861] are covered by submodule "ietf-ipv6-router-advertisements" in [RFC8349], and static neighbor cache entries and Stateless Address Autoconfiguration [RFC4862] are covered by module "ietf-ip" in [RFC8344].¶
Neighbor Discovery Optimization for 6LoWPANs [RFC6775] and other related extensions, such as those specified in [RFC8505], [RFC8928], and [RFC9010], are out of scope of this document.¶
The following terms are defined in [RFC8342]:¶
The following terms are defined in [RFC7950]:¶
The following terms are defined in [RFC4861]:¶
The following term is defined in [RFC4862]:¶
The following term is defined in [RFC7527]:¶
Tree diagrams used in this document follow the notation defined in [RFC8340].¶
The YANG data model for IPv6 ND augments the "ietf-ip" [RFC8344] to provide per-interface configuration and management of IPv6 address resolution and redirect functions based on the IPv6 ND protocol, as well as other related functions, including proxy Neighbor Advertisement, NUD, DAD, and Enhanced DAD.¶
Note that the features related to ICMP Router and Prefix Discovery are outside the scope of this module, since they have already been defined in the submodule "ietf-ipv6-router-advertisements" [RFC8349]. Static neighbor cache entries and stateless address autoconfiguration [RFC4862] are also out of scope, as they are covered by "ietf-ip"[RFC8344].¶
The data model augments the "/if:interfaces/if:interface/ip:ipv6" path defined in the "ietf-ip" module [RFC8344] for IPv6 ND protocol [RFC4861].¶
The "retrans-timer" leaf defines the interval of retransmitting Neighbor Solicitation messages when a node tries to learn the link-layer address of another node.¶
The "redirect" leaf enables the sending of Redirect messages.¶
The "statistics" container defines a collection of per-interface operational statistics for each type of IPv6 ND messages.¶
The "reachable-time" leaf defines the time to confirm a neighbor's reachability for NUD. A neighbor's state changes from REACHABLE to STALE when there is no other reachability confirmation from the neighbor within the "reachable-time".¶
The "retrans-timer" leaf also indicates the interval for retransmitting Neighbor Solicitation messages used by NUD.¶
The "proxy-na" leaf augmenting "ietf-ip" [RFC8344] defines the configurations of proxy Neighbor Advertisements [RFC4861], which indicate that a router is willing to accept packets not explicitly addressed to itself. After receiving a Neighbor Solicitation message whose destination address is not its own IPv6 address, a proxy router replies to the source with a Neighbor Advertisement message carrying its own link-layer address and the IPv6 address of the original destination.¶
The "dup-addr-detect-transmits" leaf, as defined in "ietf-ip" [RFC8344], indicates the number of consecutive Neighbor Solicitation messages sent while performing Duplicate Address Detection (DAD) [RFC4862]. The value of "dup-addr-detect-transmits" can be set to 0 to disable DAD.¶
The "retrans-timer" leaf also indicates the interval for retransmitting Neighbor Solicitation messages during DAD.¶
The "enhanced-dad" container augmenting "ietf-ip" [RFC8344] defines the configurations for enhanced DAD [RFC7527], which is used to automatically detect the looped-back IPv6 ND messages used in DAD.¶
The "auto-resolve" leaf enables automated action when a duplicate is detected. When enabled, a trusted router may log a system management message, drop the received ND message, and block the untrusted IPv6 host nodes from which the duplicate NS (DAD) or NA message was received.¶
This document defines the YANG module "ietf-ipv6-nd", which has the following structure.¶

<CODE ENDS>¶
IANA is requested to register the following URI in the "ns" registry within the "IETF XML Registry" group [RFC3688]:¶
URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-ipv6-nd Registrant Contact: The IESG XML: N/A; the requested URI is an XML namespace.¶
IANA is requested to register the following YANG module in the "YANG Module Names" registry [RFC6020] within the "YANG Parameters" registry group.¶
Name: ietf-ipv6-nd Maintained by IANA? N Namespace: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-ipv6-nd Prefix: v6nd Reference: RFC XXXX¶
This section is modeled after the template described in Section 3.7.1 of [RFC9907].¶
The "ietf-ipv6-nd" YANG module defines a data model that is designed to be accessed via YANG-based management protocols, such as the Network Configuration Protocol (NETCONF) [RFC6241] and RESTCONF [RFC8040]. These YANG-based management protocols (1) have to use a secure transport layer (e.g., Secure Shell (SSH) [RFC4252], TLS [RFC9846], and QUIC [RFC9000]) and (2) have to use mutual authentication.¶
The Network Configuration 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). All writable data nodes are likely to be sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. Write operations (e.g., edit-config) and delete operations to these data nodes without proper protection or authentication can have a negative effect on network operations. The following subtrees and data nodes have particular sensitivities/vulnerabilities:¶
* /if:interfaces/if:interface/ip:ipv6/v6nd:nd/v6nd:reachable-time¶
This leaf is used to consider a neighbor reachable since the last confirmation of reachability, which could be set to big values to prolong the effect of spoofing Neighbor Cache entries or small values to cause unnecessary frequent NUDs.¶
* /if:interfaces/if:interface/ip:ipv6/v6nd:nd/v6nd:retrans-timer¶
This leaf is used to set the interval of retransmitting Neighbor Solicitations, which could allow DoS attacks.¶
* /if:interfaces/if:interface/ip:ipv6/v6nd:nd/v6nd:redirect¶
This leaf is used to enable the sending of Redirect messages on an interface, which could allow traffic to be misdirected, potentially resulting in traffic hijacking, man-in-the-middle attacks, or DoS attacks.¶
* /if:interfaces/if:interface/ip:ipv6/v6nd:nd/v6nd:proxy-na¶
This leaf is used to enable proxy Neighbor Advertisement on an interface, which could allow spoofing traffic to be injected.¶
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. Specifically, the following subtrees and data nodes have particular sensitivities/ vulnerabilities:¶
* /if:interfaces/if:interface/ip:ipv6/ip:neighbor/v6nd:age¶
Unauthorized access to this node may disclose information about IPv6 neighbor reachability and activity patterns on the network.¶
* /if:interfaces/if:interface/ip:ipv6/v6nd:nd/v6nd:redirect¶
* /if:interfaces/if:interface/ip:ipv6/v6nd:nd/v6nd:proxy-na¶
* /if:interfaces/if:interface/ip:ipv6/v6nd:nd/v6nd:enhanced-dad¶
Unauthorized access to these nodes may disclose device behavior and security-related configuration of IPv6 Neighbor Discovery functions.¶
The authors would like to thank Bin Han, Acee Lindem, Jen Linkova, Éric Vyncke, Changwang Lin, and many others for their helpful comments and suggestions.¶
Thanks to Ebben Aries for the review and comments.¶
This example illustrates the configuration of enabling proxy Neighbor Advertisement, Redirect, NUD, DAD, and enhanced DAD on interface eth0 with setting the "dup-addr-detect-transmits" leaf as 2, the "reachable-time" leaf as 40000 milliseconds, and the "retrans-timer" leaf as 2000 milliseconds, using the ietf-interfaces module [RFC8343], the ietf-ip module [RFC8344], and the IPv6 ND module.¶
