Introduction To correlate network data among different Network Telemetry planes as described in Section 3.1 of [RFC9232] or among different YANG push subscription types defined in Section 3.1 of [RFC8641], network observation timestamping describes when the state change was observed or from when to when the data was accounted. This is essential for understanding the timely relationship among these different planes and YANG push subscription types. With [I-D.tgraf-netconf-notif-sequencing] the delay between the YANG Notification export and the arrival at the downstream system storing the data can be measured. With network observation timestamping described in this document, the delay between the network observation and the data export of the YANG push publisher process can be measured as well, extending the delay measurement scope from the time the network observation and storing the data. By extending the YANG Notification header with the YANG objects observation-time for periodical and state-changed-observation-time for on-change subscriptions these use cases can be addressed accordingly. 2. Terminologies The following terms are defined in [RFC8639] and are not redefined here: Graf, et al. Expires 6 September 2023 [Page 2] Internet-Draft YANG Notifications Observation Time March 2023 Publisher Receiver Subscription In addition, this document defines the following terms: Observation-time: Describes the measurement observation time for the "push-update" notification in a "periodical" subscription. State-changed-observation-time: Describes the time when the network state change was observed. 3. Extend the Streaming Update Notifications Besides the Subscription ID as described in Section 3.7 of [RFC8641], the following network observation time metadata objects are part of "push-update" and "push-change-update" notifications. observation-time: Describes the measurement observation time for the "push-update" notification in a "periodical" subscription. By comparing the "observation-time" of two "push-update" notifications, the collector can deduce the actual cadence of the measurements, and compare it with the configured one. state-changed-observation-time: Describes in the "push-change- update" notification in a "on-change" subscription the time when the network state change was observed after the subscription was initially established. In case of an "on-change sync on start" subscription it describes the time when the network state change was observed before the subscription was established. Figure 1 provides an example of a JSON encoded, [RFC8259], "push- change-update" notification message over HTTPS-based [I-D.ietf-netconf-https-notif] or UDP-based [I-D.ietf-netconf-udp-notif] transport for the same subscription.

IANA Considerations This document describes the URI used for the IETF XML Registry and registers a new YANG module name. 6.1. URI IANA is requested to add this document as a reference in the following URI in the IETF XML Registry [RFC3688]. URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-yang-push-netobs- timestamping:1.0 Registrant Contact: The IESG. XML: N/A; the requested URI is an XML namespace. Reference: RFC5277; RFC-to-be 6.2. YANG module name This document registers the following YANG module in the YANG Module Names Registry [RFC6020], within the "YANG Parameters" registry: name: ietf-notification namespace: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-yang-push-netobs- timestamping:1.0 prefix: ypnt Reference: RFC-to-bee 7. Operational Considerations 7.1. On Change Sync On Start Subscription For "on-change sync on start" subscriptions, if the timestamp for the network state change was observed before the subscription was established and is not recorded in the YANG datastore, then no timestamp should be populated to state-changed-observation-time. 8.
