The YANG [RFC7950] model in [I-D.ietf-teas-actn-vn-yang] is used to operate customer-driven Virtual Networks (VNs) during the computation of VN, its instantiation, and its life-cycle service management and operations. The YANG model in [I-D.ietf-teas-yang-te] is used to operate TE-tunnels during the tunnel instantiation, and its life-cycle management and operations.¶
The models presented in this draft allow the applications hosted by the customers to subscribe to and monitor the key performance data of their interest on the level of VN [I-D.ietf-teas-actn-vn-yang] or TE-tunnel [I-D.ietf-teas-yang-te]. The key characteristic of the models presented in this document is a top-down programmability that allows the applications hosted by the customers to subscribe to and monitor key performance data of their interest and autonomic scaling intent mechanism on the level of VN as well as TE-tunnel.¶
According to the classification of [RFC8309], the YANG data models presented in this document can be classified as customer service models. These can be mapped to the CMI (Customer Network Controller (CNC)- Multi-Domain Service Coordinator (MSDC) interface) of ACTN [RFC8453].¶
[RFC8233] describes key network performance data to be considered for end-to-end path computation in TE networks. The services provided can be optimized to meet the requirements (such as traffic patterns, quality, and reliability) of the applications hosted by the customers.¶
This document provides YANG data models with performance monitoring parameters that can be subscribed to for monitoring and telemetry for any VN/TE-Tunnel via the mechanism specified in [RFC8641] and [RFC8640]. It also provides an ability to program their customized automatic scaling in/out intent. A client network controller can utilize these models and initiate the capabilities via a NETCONF [RFC8341] or a RESTCONF [RFC8040] interface.¶
The term 'Performance monitoring' in this document refers to subscription and publication of streaming telemetry data. Subscription is initiated by the client (e.g., CNC) while publication is provided by the network (e.g., MDSC/Provisioning Network Controller (PNC)) based on the client's subscription. As per [RFC7799], this would be classified as a passive method. Note that the actual measurements might be done via any technique though. As the scope of performance monitoring in this document is augment the performance monitoring parameters (telemetry data) on the level of a client's VN or TE-tunnel, the entity interfacing to the client (e.g., MDSC) has to provide VN or TE-tunnel level information. This requires the controller to have the capability to derive VN or TE-tunnel level performance data based on lower-level data collected via PM counters in the Network Elements (NE). How the controller entity derives such customized level data (i.e., VN or TE-tunnel level) is out of the scope of this document.¶
The data model includes configuration and state data according to the Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA) [RFC8342].¶
Refer to [RFC8453], [RFC7926], and [RFC8309] for the key terms used in this document.¶
Scaling: This refers to the network's ability to re-shape its own resources. "Scale out" refers to improve network performance by increasing the allocated resources, while "scale in" refers to decreasing the allocated resources, typically because the existing resources are unnecessary.¶
Scaling Intent: Scaling intent is used to declare scaling conditions. Specifically, scaling intent refers to how the client programs or configures conditions that will be applied to their key performance data to trigger either scaling out or scaling in. Various conditions can be set for scaling intent on either VN or TE-tunnel level.¶
Network Autonomics: This refers to the network automation capability that allows a client to initiate scaling intent mechanisms and provides the client with the status of the adjusted network resources based on the client's scaling intent in an automated fashion.¶
A simplified graphical representation of the data model is used in Section 4 and Section 8 of this document. The meaning of the symbols in these diagrams is defined in [RFC8340].¶
In this document, names of data nodes and other data model objects are prefixed using the standard prefix associated with the corresponding YANG imported modules, as shown in Table 1.¶
Prefix | YANG module | Reference |

Further, the following additional documents are referenced in the model defined in this document -¶
There is a need for real-time (or semi-real-time) traffic monitoring of the network to optimize the network and the traffic distribution. Figure 1 shows an example of a high-level workflow for dynamic service control based on traffic monitoring that could use the mechanism described in this document.¶
Some of the key points are as follows:¶
This document describes two YANG models:¶
TE Telemetry Model which provides the TE-Tunnel level of¶
performance monitoring mechanism and scaling intent mechanism that allows scale in/out programming by the customer. (See Section 3.1 & Section 9.1 for details).¶
VN Telemetry Model which provides the VN level of the¶
aggregated performance monitoring mechanism and scaling intent mechanism that allows scale in/out programming by the customer (See Section 3.2 & Section 9.2 for details).¶
This model describes the performance telemetry for the TE tunnel. The telemetry data is augmented to the TE tunnel. This model also allows autonomic traffic engineering scaling intent configuration mechanism on the TE-tunnel level. Various conditions can be set for auto-scaling based on the telemetry data (See Section 6 for details)¶
As shown in Figure 2, the TE Telemetry Model augments the TE-Tunnel Model to enhance TE performance monitoring capability. This monitoring capability will facilitate the re-optimization and reconfiguration of TE tunnels based on the performance monitoring data collected via the TE Telemetry YANG model.¶
As shown in Figure 3, the VN Telemetry Model augments the basic VN model to enhance VN monitoring capability. This monitoring capability will facilitate re-optimization and reconfiguration of VNs based on the performance monitoring data collected via the VN Telemetry YANG model. This model also imports the TE telemetry model to reuse the groupings.¶
This model describes the performance telemetry for the VN model. The telemetry data is augmented to the VN model at the VN Level as well as at the individual VN member level. This model also allows autonomic traffic engineering scaling intent configuration mechanism on the VN level. Scale in/out criteria might be used for network autonomics in order for the controller to react to a certain set of variations in monitored parameters (See Section 4 for illustrations).¶
Moreover, this model also provides a mechanism to define aggregated VN telemetry parameters as a grouping of underlying VN-member level telemetry parameters. This is unique to the VN model as a VN comprises multiple VN-members, and each VN-member could be further set across multiple TE tunnels. Grouping operation (such as maximum, mean) could be set at the time of configuration. For example, if "maximum" grouping operation is used for delay at the VN level, the VN telemetry data is reported as the maximum of {delay_vn_member_1, delay_vn_member_2,.. delay_vn_member_N}. Thus, this telemetry aggregation mechanism allows the aggregation (or grouping) of a certain common set of telemetry values under a grouping operation. This can also be done at the VN-member level to suggest how the end-to-end (E2E) telemetry be inferred from the per domain tunnels created and monitored by PNCs. The Figure 4 provides an example interaction.¶
The YANG model in [I-D.ietf-opsawg-yang-vpn-service-pm] provides network performance monitoring (PM) and VPN service performance monitoring that can be used to monitor and manage network performance on the topology at higher-layers or the service topology between VPN sites. Thus the YANG models in this document could be used alongside with ietf-network-vpn-pm to understand and correlate the performance monitoring at the VPN service and the underlying TE level.¶
The scaling intent configuration mechanism allows the client to configure automatic scale-in and scale-out mechanisms on both the TE-tunnel and the VN level. Various conditions can be set for auto-scaling based on the PM telemetry data.¶
There are several parameters involved in the mechanism:¶
The tree in Figure 5 is a part of ietf-te-telemetry tree whose model is presented in full detail in Sections 6 & 7.¶
Let's say the client wants to set the scaling out operation based on two performance-types (e.g., two-way-delay and utilized-bandwidth for a te-tunnel), it can be done as follows:¶
In the scaling condition's list, the following two components can be set:¶
List 1: Scaling Condition for Two-way-delay¶
List 2: Scaling Condition for Utilized bandwidth¶
This model augments Tunnel model to include performance parameters from the grouping performance-metrics-attributes from te-types [RFC8776]:¶
This model does not define specific notifications. To enable notifications, the mechanism defined in [RFC8641] and [RFC8640] can be used. This mechanism currently allows the user to:¶
[RFC8641] allows subscriber applications to request a continuous, customized stream of updates from a YANG datastore.¶
The example in Figure 7 shows the way for a client to subscribe to the telemetry information for a particular tunnel (Tunnel1). The telemetry parameter that the client is interested in is one-way- delay.¶
The example in Figure 8 shows the way for a client to subscribe to the telemetry information for all VNs. The telemetry parameter that the client is interested in is one-way-delay and one-way-utilized- bandwidth.¶
The example in Figure 9 shows the way to configure a TE tunnel with the scaling-out intent to re-optimize when the the scaling condition of two-way-delay crossing 100 milliseconds (100000 microseconds) for a threshold of 1 min (60 seconds).¶
The example in Figure 10 shows the way to configure a VN with the scaling-in intent to reduce bandwidth when the the scaling condition of utilized-percentage crossing 50 percent for a threshold of 5 minutes (300 seconds).¶
The example in Figure 11 shows the way to configure a VN with the scaling-in when the the scaling condition of one-way-delay-variation crossing 100 milliseconds (100000 microseconds) OR one-way-delay crossing 50 milliseconds (50000 microseconds) for a threshold of 2 minutes (120 seconds).¶
The example in Figure 12 shows the way to configure a grouping operation at the VN level to require that the VN level one-way-delay needs to be the reported as the max of the one-way-delay at the VN-member level, where as the utilized-percentage is the mean.¶

The YANG modules 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 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). 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 with the write operation that can be exploited to impact the network monitoring. An incorrect condition could cause frequent scaling operation to be executed causing harm to the network:¶
Further, following are the subtrees with the write operation that can be exploited by setting an incorrect grouping operation for the VN operation impacting the network monitoring:¶
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 with the read operations that can be exploited to learn real-time (and sensitive) telemetry information about the TE tunnels and VN:¶

This document exclusively focus on performance monitoring telemetry and scaling intent mechanisms of the underlying transport (TE-tunnels and Virtual Networks (VNs)). The performance monitoring of the services is out of scope. See Section 3.3 for details about VPN performance monitoring. Similarly performance monitoring of IETF network slices could be developed and it is clearly out of scope of this document.¶
