Introduction This document defines a YANG [RFC6020] data model for the configuration and identification of the management system of a device. Devices that are managed by NETCONF and perhaps other mechanisms have common properties that need to be configured and monitored in a standard way. The "ietf-system" YANG module defined in this document provides the following features: o system administrative data configuration o system identification monitoring o system time-of-day configuration and monitoring o user authentication configuration o local users configuration 1.1. Terminology The keywords "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]. 1.1.1. Terms The following terms are used within this document: o system: This term refers to the embodiment of the entire set of management interfaces that a single NETCONF server is supporting at a given moment. The set of physical entities managed by a single NETCONF server can be static or it can change dynamically. Bierman & Bjorklund Expires June 29, 2013 [Page 3] Internet-Draft YANG System Management December 2012 2. Objectives 2.1. System Identification There are many common properties used to identify devices, operating systems, software versions, etc. that need to be supported in the system data module. These objects are defined as operational data and intended to be specific to the device vendor. Some user-configurable administrative strings are also provided such as the system location and description. 2.2. System Time Management The management of the date and time used by the system need to be supported. Use of one or more NTP servers to automatically set the system date and time need to be possible. Utilization of the Timezone database [RFC6557] also need to be supported. 2.3. User Authentication The authentication mechanism need to support password authentication over RADIUS, to support deployment scenarios with centralized authentication servers. Additionally, local users need to be supported, for scenarios when no centralized authentication server exists, or for situations where the centralized authentication server cannot be reached from the device. Since the mandatory transport protocol for NETCONF is SSH [RFC6242] the authentication model need to support SSH's "publickey" and "password" authentication methods [RFC4252]. The model for authentication configuration should be flexible enough to support authentication methods defined by other standard documents or by vendors. Bierman & Bjorklund Expires June 29, 2013 [Page 4] Internet-Draft YANG System Management December 2012 3. System Data Model 3.1. System Identification The data model for system identification has the following structure: +--rw system +--rw contact? string +--rw name? string +--rw location? string +--ro platform +--ro os-name? string +--ro os-release? string +--ro os-version? string +--ro machine? string +--ro nodename? string 3.2. System Time Management The data model for system time management has the following structure: +--rw system +--rw clock | +--ro current-datetime? yang:date-and-time | +--ro boot-datetime? yang:date-and-time | +--rw (timezone)? | +--:(timezone-location) | | +--rw timezone-location? string | +--:(timezone-utc-offset) | +--rw timezone-utc-offset? int16 +--rw ntp +--rw use-ntp? boolean +--rw ntp-server [address] +--rw association-type? enumeration +--rw address inet:host +--rw enabled? boolean +--rw iburst? boolean +--rw prefer? boolean 3.3. DNS Resolver Model The data model for configuration of the DNS resolver has the following structure: Bierman & Bjorklund Expires June 29, 2013 [Page 5] Internet-Draft YANG System Management December 2012 +--rw system +--rw dns +--rw search* inet:host +--rw server* inet:ip-address +--rw options +--rw timeout? uint8 +--rw attempts? uint8 3.4. RADIUS Client Model The data model for configuration of the RADIUS client has the following structure: +--rw system +--rw radius +--rw server [address] | +--rw address inet:host | +--rw authentication-port? inet:port-number | +--rw shared-secret? string +--rw options +--rw timeout? uint8 +--rw attempts? uint8 3.5. User Authentication Model This document defines three authentication methods for use with NETCONF: o publickey for local users over SSH o password for local users over any transport o password for RADIUS users over any transport Additional methods can be defined by other standard documents or by vendors. This document defines two optional YANG features, "local-users" and "radius-authentication", which the server advertises to indicate support for configuring local users on the device, and support for using RADIUS for authentication, respectively. The authentication parameters defined in this document are primarily used to configure authentication of NETCONF users, but MAY also be used by other interfaces, e.g., a Command Line Interface or a Web- based User Interface. The data model for user authentication has the following structure: Bierman & Bjorklund Expires June 29, 2013 [Page 6] Internet-Draft YANG System Management December 2012 +--rw system +--rw authentication +--rw user-authentication-order* identityref +--rw user [name] +--rw name string +--rw password? crypt-hash +--rw ssh-key [name] +--rw name string +--rw algorithm? string +--rw key-data? binary 3.5.1. SSH Public Key Authentication If the NETCONF server advertises the "local-users" feature, configuration of local users and their SSH public keys is supported in the /system/authentication/user list. Public key authentication is requested by the SSH client. If the "local-users" feature is supported, then when a NETCONF client starts an SSH session towards the server using the "publickey" authentication "method name" [RFC4252], the SSH server looks up the user name given in the SSH authentication request in the /system/ authentication/user list, and verifies the key as described in [RFC4253]. 3.5.2. Local User Password Authentication If the NETCONF server advertises the "local-users" feature, configuration of local users and their passwords is supported in the /system/authentication/user list. For NETCONF transport protocols that support password authentication, the leaf-list "user-authentication-order" is used to control if local user password authentication should be used. In SSH, password authentication is requested by the client. Other NETCONF transport protocols MAY also support password authentication. When local user password authentication is requested, the NETCONF transport looks up the user name provided by the client in the /system/ authentication/user list, and verifies the password. 3.5.3. RADIUS Password Authentication If the NETCONF server advertises the "radius-authentication" feature, the device supports user authentication using RADIUS. For NETCONF transport protocols that support password authentication, Bierman & Bjorklund Expires June 29, 2013 [Page 7] Internet-Draft YANG System Management December 2012 the leaf-list "user-authentication-order" is used to control if RADIUS password authentication should be used. In SSH, password authentication is requested by the client. Other NETCONF transport protocols MAY also support password authentication. 3.6. System Control Two protocol operations are included to restart or shutdown the system. The 'system-restart' operation can be used to restart the entire system (not just the NETCONF server). The 'system-shutdown' operation can be used to power off the entire system. Bierman & Bjorklund Expires June 29, 2013 [Page 8] Internet-Draft YANG System Management December 2012 4.

This type is implemented in various UNIX systems as the function crypt(3). Bierman & Bjorklund Expires June 29, 2013 [Page 10] Internet-Draft YANG System Management December 2012 When a clear text value is set to a leaf of this type, the server calculates a password hash, and stores the result in the datastore. Thus, the password is never stored in clear text. When a leaf of this type is read, the stored password hash is returned. A value of this type matches one of the forms: $0$ $$$ The '$0$' prefix signals that the value is clear text. When such a value is received by the server, a hash value is calculated, and the string '$$$' is prepended to the result, where is a random 2-16 characters long salt used to generate the digest. This value is stored in the configuration data store. If a value starting with '$$$' is received, the server knows that the value already represents a hashed value, and stores it as is in the data store. When a server needs to verify a password given by a user, it finds the stored password hash string for that user, extracts the salt, and calculates the hash with the salt and given password as input. If the calculated hash value is the same as the stored value, the password given by the client is correct.

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]. 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: o /system/clock/timezone: This choice contains the objects used to control the timezone used by the device. o /system/ntp: This container contains the objects used to control the Network Time Protocol servers used by the device. o /system/dns: This container contains the objects used to control the Domain Name System servers used by the device. o /system/radius: This container contains the objects used to control the Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service servers used by the device. o /system/authentication/user-authentication-order: This leaf controls how user login attempts are authenticated by the device. o /system/authentication/user: This list contains the local users enabled on the system. 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: o /system/platform: This container has objects which may help identify the specific NETCONF server and/or operating system implementation used on the 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: Bierman & Bjorklund Expires June 29, 2013 [Page 26] Internet-Draft YANG System Management December 2012 o set-current-datetime: Changes the current date and time on the device. o system-restart: Reboots the device. o system-shutdown: Shuts down the device.
