Internet Engineering Task Force R.G. Wilton, Ed. Internet-Draft Cisco Systems Intended status: Standards Track S. Mansfield, Ed. Expires: 31 July 2023 Ericsson 27 January 2023 Sub-interface VLAN YANG Data Models draft-ietf-netmod-sub-intf-vlan-model-08 Abstract This document defines YANG modules to add support for classifying traffic received on interfaces as Ethernet/VLAN framed packets to sub-interfaces based on the fields available in the Ethernet/VLAN frame headers. These modules allow configuration of Layer 3 and Layer 2 sub-interfaces (e.g. L2VPN attachment circuits) that can interoperate with IETF based forwarding protocols; such as IP and L3VPN services; or L2VPN services like VPWS, VPLS, and EVPN. The sub-interfaces also interoperate with VLAN tagged traffic orignating from an IEEE 802.1Q compliant bridge. The model differs from an IEEE 802.1Q bridge model in that the configuration is interface/sub-interface based as opposed to being based on membership of an 802.1Q VLAN bridge. The YANG data models in this document conforms to the Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA) defined in RFC 8342.

Introduction This document defines two YANG [RFC7950] modules that augment the encapsulation choice YANG element defined in Interface Extensions YANG [I-D.ietf-netmod-intf-ext-yang] and the generic interfaces data model defined in [RFC8343]. The two modules provide configuration nodes to support classification of Ethernet/VLAN traffic to sub- interfaces, that can have interface based feature and service configuration applied to them. The purpose of these models is to allow IETF defined forwarding protocols, for example, IPv6 [RFC8200], Ethernet Pseudo Wires [RFC4448] and VPLS [RFC4761] [RFC4762], when configured via appropriate YANG data models [RFC8344] [I-D.ietf-bess-l2vpn-yang], to interoperate with VLAN tagged traffic received from an IEEE 802.1Q compliant bridge. In the case of layer 2 Ethernet services, the flexible encapsulation module also supports flexible rewriting of the VLAN tags contained in the frame header. For reference, a comparison between the sub-interface based YANG model documented in this draft and an IEEE 802.1Q bridge model is described in Appendix A. In summary, the YANG modules defined in this internet draft are: ietf-if-vlan-encapsulation.yang - Defines the model for basic classification of VLAN tagged traffic, normally to L3 packet forwarding services ietf-if-flexible-encapsulation.yang - Defines the model for flexible classification of Ethernet/VLAN traffic, normally to L2 frame forwarding services 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 term 'sub-interface' is defined in section 2.6 of Interface Extensions YANG [I-D.ietf-netmod-intf-ext-yang]. Wilton & Mansfield Expires 31 July 2023 [Page 3] Internet-Draft Sub-interface VLAN YANG January 2023 1.2. Tree Diagrams Tree diagrams used in this document follow the notation defined in [RFC8340]. 2. Objectives The primary aim of the YANG modules contained in this draft is to provide the core model that is required to implement VLAN transport services on router based devices that is fully compatible with IEEE 802.1Q compliant bridges. A secondary aim is for the modules to be structured in such a way that they can be cleanly extended in future. 2.1. Interoperability with IEEE 802.1Q compliant bridges The modules defined in this document are designed to fully interoperate with IEEE 802.1Q compliant bridges. In particular, the models are restricted to only matching, adding, or rewriting the 802.1Q VLAN tags in frames in ways that are compatible with IEEE 802.1Q compliant bridges. 3. Interface VLAN Encapsulation Model The Interface VLAN encapsulation model provides appropriate leaves for termination of an 802.1Q VLAN tagged segment to a sub-interface (or interface) based L3 service, such as IP. It allows for termination of traffic with one or two 802.1Q VLAN tags. The L3 service must be configured via a separate YANG data model, e.g., [RFC8344]. A short example of configuring 802.1Q VLAN sub- interfaces with IP using YANG is provided in Section 7.1. The "ietf-if-vlan-encapsulation" YANG module has the following structure: Wilton & Mansfield Expires 31 July 2023 [Page 4] Internet-Draft Sub-interface VLAN YANG January 2023 module: ietf-if-vlan-encapsulation augment /if:interfaces/if:interface/if-ext:encapsulation /if-ext:encaps-type: +--:(dot1q-vlan) +--rw dot1q-vlan +--rw outer-tag | +--rw tag-type dot1q-tag-type | +--rw vlan-id vlanid +--rw second-tag! +--rw tag-type dot1q-tag-type +--rw vlan-id vlanid 4. Interface Flexible Encapsulation Model The Interface Flexible Encapsulation model is designed to allow for the flexible provisioning of layer 2 services. It provides the capability to classify and demultiplex Ethernet/VLAN frames received on an Ethernet trunk interface to sub-interfaces based on the fields available in the layer 2 headers. Once classified to sub-interfaces, it provides the capability to selectively modify fields within the layer 2 frame header before the frame is handed off to the appropriate forwarding code for further handling. The forwarding instance, e.g., L2VPN, VPLS, etc., is configured using a separate YANG configuration model defined elsewhere, e.g., [I-D.ietf-bess-l2vpn-yang]. The model supports a common core set of layer 2 header matches based on the 802.1Q tag type and VLAN Ids contained within the header up to a tag stack depth of two tags. The model supports flexible rewrites of the layer 2 frame header for data frames as they are processed on the interface. It defines a set of standard tag manipulations that allow for the insertion, removal, or rewrite of one or two 802.1Q VLAN tags. The expectation is that manipulations are generally implemented in a symmetrical fashion, i.e. if a manipulation is performed on ingress traffic on an interface then the reverse manipulation is always performed on egress traffic out of the same interface. However, the model also allows for asymmetrical rewrites, which may be required to implement some forwarding models (such as E-Tree). The model also allows a flexible encapsulation and rewrite to be configured directly on an Ethernet or LAG interface without configuring separate child sub-interfaces. Ingress frames that do not match the encapsulation are dropped. Egress frames MUST conform to the encapsulation. Wilton & Mansfield Expires 31 July 2023 [Page 5] Internet-Draft Sub-interface VLAN YANG January 2023 The final aim for the model design is for it to be cleanly extensible to add in additional match and rewrite criteria of the layer 2 header, such as matching on the source or destination MAC address, PCP or DEI fields in the 802.1Q tags, or the EtherType of the frame payload. Rewrites can also be extended to allow for modification of other fields within the layer 2 frame header. A short example of configuring 802.1Q VLAN sub-interfaces with L2VPN using YANG is provided in Section 7.2. The "ietf-if-flexible-encapsulation" YANG module has the following structure: module: ietf-if-flexible-encapsulation augment /if:interfaces/if:interface/if-ext:encapsulation /if-ext:encaps-type: +--:(flexible) +--rw flexible +--rw match | +--rw (match-type) | +--:(default) | | +--rw default? empty | +--:(untagged) | | +--rw untagged? empty | +--:(dot1q-priority-tagged) | | +--rw dot1q-priority-tagged | | +--rw tag-type dot1q-types:dot1q-tag-type | +--:(dot1q-vlan-tagged) | +--rw dot1q-vlan-tagged | +--rw outer-tag | | +--rw tag-type dot1q-tag-type | | +--rw vlan-id union | +--rw second-tag! | | +--rw tag-type dot1q-tag-type | | +--rw vlan-id union | +--rw match-exact-tags? empty +--rw rewrite {flexible-rewrites}? | +--rw (direction)? | +--:(symmetrical) | | +--rw symmetrical | | +--rw dot1q-tag-rewrite {dot1q-tag-rewrites}? | | +--rw pop-tags? uint8 | | +--rw push-tags! | | +--rw outer-tag | | | +--rw tag-type dot1q-tag-type | | | +--rw vlan-id vlanid | | +--rw second-tag!

Examples The following sections give examples of configuring a sub-interface supporting L3 forwarding, and a sub-interface being used in conjunction with the IETF L2VPN YANG model [I-D.ietf-bess-l2vpn-yang]. 7.1. Layer 3 sub-interfaces with IPv6 This example illustrates two layer sub-interfaces, 'eth0.1' and 'eth0.2', both are child interfaces of the Ethernet interface 'eth0'. Wilton & Mansfield Expires 31 July 2023 [Page 21] Internet-Draft Sub-interface VLAN YANG January 2023 'eth0.1' is configured to match traffic with two VLAN tags: an outer S-VLAN of 10 and an inner C-VLAN of 20. 'eth0.2' is configured to match traffic with a single S-VLAN tag, with VLAN Id 11. eth0 ianaift:ethernetCsmacd eth0.1 ianaift:l2vlan eth0 dot1q-types:s-vlan 10 dot1q-types:c-vlan 20 true

7.2. Layer 2 sub-interfaces with L2VPN This example illustrates a layer 2 sub-interface 'eth0.3' configured to match traffic with a S-VLAN tag of 10, and C-VLAN tag of 21; and remov the outer tag (S-VLAN 10) before the traffic is passed off to the L2VPN service. It also illustrates another sub-interface 'eth1.0' under a separate physical interface configured to match traffic with a C-VLAN of 50, with the tag removed before traffic is given to any service. Sub- interface 'eth1.0' is not currently bound to any service and hence traffic classified to that sub-interface is dropped. eth0 ianaift:ethernetCsmacd Wilton & Mansfield Expires 31 July 2023 [Page 23] Internet-Draft Sub-interface VLAN YANG January 2023 eth0.3 ianaift:l2vlan eth0 dot1q-types:s-vlan 10 dot1q-types:c-vlan 21 1 eth1 ianaift:ethernetCsmacd eth1.0 ianaift:l2vlan eth0 dot1q-types:c-vlan 50 Wilton & Mansfield Expires 31 July 2023 [Page 24] Internet-Draft Sub-interface VLAN YANG January 2023 1 p2p-l2-1 Point to point L2 service l2vpn:vpws-instance-type l2vpn:ldp-signaling local eth0.3 remote pw1 pw1 2001:db8::50> 100 Wilton & Mansfield Expires 31 July 2023 [Page 25] Internet-Draft Sub-interface VLAN YANG January 2023 8.

Security Considerations The YANG module defined in this memo is designed to be accessed via the NETCONF protocol [RFC6241]. The lowest NETCONF layer is the secure transport layer and the mandatory to implement secure transport is SSH [RFC6242] The NETCONF access control model [RFC8341] provides the means to restrict access for particular NETCONF users to a pre-configured subset of all available NETCONF protocol operations and content. There are a number of data nodes defined in this YANG module which 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: 10.1. ietf-if-vlan-encapsulation.yang The nodes in the vlan encapsulation YANG module are concerned with matching particular frames received on the network device to connect them to a layer 3 forwarding instance, and as such adding/modifying/ deleting these nodes has a high risk of causing traffic to be lost because it is not being classified correctly, or is being classified to a separate sub-interface. The nodes, all under the subtree /interfaces/interface/encapsulation/dot1q-vlan, that are sensitive to this are: * outer-tag/tag-type * outer-tag/vlan-id * second-tag/tag-type * second-tag/vlan-id Wilton & Mansfield Expires 31 July 2023 [Page 27] Internet-Draft Sub-interface VLAN YANG January 2023 10.2. ietf-if-flexible-encapsulation.yang There are many nodes in the flexible encapsulation YANG module that are concerned with matching particular frames received on the network device, and as such adding/modifying/deleting these nodes has a high risk of causing traffic to be lost because it is not being classified correctly, or is being classified to a separate sub-interface.

The nodes, all under the subtree /interfaces/interface/encapsulation/flexible/rewrite, that are sensitive to this are: * symmetrical/dot1q-tag-rewrite/pop-tags * symmetrical/dot1q-tag-rewrite/push-tags/outer-tag/tag-type * symmetrical/dot1q-tag-rewrite/push-tags/outer-tag/vlan-id * symmetrical/dot1q-tag-rewrite/push-tags/second-tag/tag-type * symmetrical/dot1q-tag-rewrite/push-tags/second-tag/vlan-id * asymmetrical/ingress/dot1q-tag-rewrite/pop-tags Wilton & Mansfield Expires 31 July 2023 [Page 28] Internet-Draft Sub-interface VLAN YANG January 2023 * asymmetrical/ingress/dot1q-tag-rewrite/push-tags/outer-tag/tag- type * asymmetrical/ingress/dot1q-tag-rewrite/push-tags/outer-tag/vlan-id * asymmetrical/ingress/dot1q-tag-rewrite/push-tags/second-tag/tag- type * asymmetrical/ingress/dot1q-tag-rewrite/push-tags/second-tag/vlan- id * asymmetrical/egress/dot1q-tag-rewrite/pop-tags * asymmetrical/egress/dot1q-tag-rewrite/push-tags/outer-tag/tag-type * asymmetrical/egress/dot1q-tag-rewrite/push-tags/outer-tag/vlan-id * asymmetrical/egress/dot1q-tag-rewrite/push-tags/second-tag/tag- type * asymmetrical/egress/dot1q-tag-rewrite/push-tags/second-tag/vlan-id Nodes in the flexible-encapsulation YANG module that are concerned with the VLAN tags to use for traffic sourced from the network element could cause protocol sessions (such as CFM) to fail if they are added, modified or deleted.

Wilton & Mansfield Expires 31 July 2023 [Page 31] Internet-Draft Sub-interface VLAN YANG January 2023 Appendix A. Comparison with the IEEE 802.1Q Configuration Model In addition to the sub-interface based YANG model proposed here, the IEEE 802.1Q working group has developed a YANG model for the configuration of 802.1Q VLANs. This raises the valid question as to whether the models overlap and whether it is necessary or beneficial to have two different models for superficially similar constructs. This section aims to answer that question by summarizing and comparing the two models. A.1. Sub-interface based configuration model overview The key features of the sub-interface based configuration model can be summarized as: * The model is primarily designed to enable layer 2 and layer 3 services on Ethernet interfaces that can be defined in a very flexible way to meet the varied requirements of service providers. * Traffic is classified from an Ethernet-like interface to sub- interfaces based on fields in the layer 2 header. This is often based on VLAN Ids contained in the frame, but the model is extensible to other arbitrary fields in the frame header. * Sub-interfaces are just a type of if:interface and hence support any feature configuration YANG models that can be applied generally to interfaces. For example, QoS or ACL models that reference if:interface can be applied to the sub-interfaces, or the sub-interface can be used as an Access Circuit in L2VPN or L3VPN models that reference if:interface. * In the sub-interface based configuration model, the classification of traffic arriving on an interface to a given sub-interface, based on fields in the layer 2 header, is completely independent of how the traffic is forwarded. The sub-interface can be referenced (via references to if:interface) by other models that specify how traffic is forwarded; thus sub-interfaces can support multiple different forwarding paradigms, including but not limited to: layer 3 (IPv4/IPv6), layer 2 pseudowires (over MPLS or IP), VPLS instances, EVPN instance. * The model is flexible in the scope of the VLAN Identifier space. I.e. by default VLAN Ids can be scoped locally to a single Ethernet-like trunk interface, but the scope is determined by the forwarding paradigm that is used. Wilton & Mansfield Expires 31 July 2023 [Page 32] Internet-Draft Sub-interface VLAN YANG January 2023 A.2. IEEE 802.1Q Bridge Configuration Model Overview The key features of the IEEE 802.1Q bridge configuration model can be summarized as: * Each VLAN bridge component has a set of Ethernet interfaces that are members of that bridge. Sub-interfaces are not used, nor required in the 802.1Q bridge model. * Within a VLAN bridge component, the VLAN tag in the packet is used, along with the destination MAC address, to determine how to forward the packet. Other forwarding paradigms are not supported by the 802.1Q model. * Classification of traffic to a VLAN bridge component is based only on the Ethernet interface that it arrived on. * VLAN Identifiers are scoped to a VLAN bridge component. Often devices only support a single bridge component and hence VLANs are scoped globally within the device. * Feature configuration is specified in the context of the bridge, or particular VLANs on a bridge. A.3. Possible Overlap Between the Two Models Both models can be used for configuring similar basic layer 2 forwarding topologies. The 802.1Q bridge configuration model is optimised for configuring Virtual LANs that span across enterprises and data centers. The sub-interface model can also be used for configuring equivalent Virtual LAN networks that span across enterprises and data centers, but often requires more configuration to be able to configure the equivalent constructs to the 802.1Q bridge model. The sub-interface model really excels when implementing flexible L2 and L3 services, where those services may be handled on the same physical interface, and where the VLAN Identifier is being solely used to identify the customer or service that is being provided rather than a Virtual LAN. The sub-interface model provides more flexibility as to how traffic can be classified, how features can be applied to traffic streams, and how the traffic is to be forwarded. Conversely, the 802.1Q bridge model can also be use to implement L2 services in some scenarios, but only if the forwarding paradigm being used to implement the service is the native Ethernet forwarding specified in 802.1Q - other forwarding paradigms such as pseudowires Wilton & Mansfield Expires 31 July 2023 [Page 33] Internet-Draft Sub-interface VLAN YANG January 2023 or VPLS are not supported. The 802.1Q bridge model does not implement L3 services at all, although this can be partly mitigated by using a virtual L3 interface construct that is a separate logical Ethernet-like interface which is a member of the bridge. In conclusion, it is valid for both of these models to exist since they have different deployment scenarios for which they are optimized. Devices may choose which of the models (or both) to implement depending on what functionality the device is being designed for.
