1.  Introduction

[RFC 3618] introduces the protocol definition of the Multicast Source Discovery Protocol (MSDP). This document defines a YANG data model that can be used to configure and manage MSDP protocol operations. The operational state data and statistics can also be retrieved by this model.
This model is designed to be used along with other multicast YANG data models such as PIM [PIM-YANG], which are not covered in this document.

1.1.  Terminology

The terminology for describing YANG data models is found in [RFC 6020] and [RFC 7950], including:
  • action
  • augment
  • choice
  • container
  • data model
  • data node
  • grouping
  • identity
  • leaf
  • list
  • module
  • uses
The following abbreviations are used in this document and the defined model:
MSDP: Multicast Source Discovery Protocol [RFC 3618]
RP: Rendezvous Point [RFC 7761]
RPF: Reverse Path Forwarding [RFC 7761]
SA: Source-Active [RFC 3618]

1.2.  Conventions Used in This Document

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 [RFC 2119] [RFC 8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here.

1.3.  Tree Diagrams

Tree diagrams used in this document follow the notation defined in [RFC 8340].

1.4.  Prefixes in Data Node Names

In this document, names of data nodes, actions, and other data model objects are often used without a prefix, as long as it is clear from the context in which YANG module each name is defined. Otherwise, names are prefixed using the standard prefix associated with the corresponding YANG module, as shown in Table 1.

2.  Design of the Data Model

2.1.  Scope of Model

The model covers MSDP [RFC 3618].
This model can be used to configure and manage MSDP protocol operations. The operational state data and statistics can be retrieved by this model. Even though no protocol-specific notifications are defined in this model, the subscription and push mechanisms, as defined in [RFC 8639] and [RFC 8641], can be implemented by the user to subscribe to notifications on the data nodes in this model.
The model contains all the basic configuration parameters to operate the protocol. Depending on the implementation choices, some systems may not allow some of the advanced parameters to be configurable. The occasionally implemented parameters are modeled as optional features in this model. This model can be extended, and it has been structured in a way that such extensions can be conveniently made.

2.2.  Specification

The configuration data nodes cover global configuration attributes and per-peer configuration attributes. The state data nodes include global, per-peer, and SA information. The container "msdp" is the top-level container in this data model. The presence of this container is expected to enable MSDP protocol functionality. No notification is defined in this model.
Top   ToC   RFCv3-8916

3.  Module Structure

This model imports and augments the "ietf-routing" YANG data model defined in [RFC 8349]. Both configuration data nodes and state data nodes as mentioned in [RFC 8349] are augmented.
The YANG data model defined in this document conforms to the Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA) [RFC 8342]. The operational state data is combined with the associated configuration data in the same hierarchy [RFC 8407].

3.1.  MSDP Configuration

MSDP operation requires configuration information that is distributed amongst several peers. Several peers may be configured in a mesh-group. The SA information may be filtered by peers.
The configuration modeling branch is composed of MSDP global and peer configurations. These two parts are the most important parts of MSDP.
Besides the fundamental features of MSDP, several optional features are included in the model. These features help the control of MSDP. The peer features and SA features make the deployment and control easier. The connection parameters can be used to control the TCP connection because MSDP is based on TCP. The authentication features make the protocol more secure. The filter features selectively allow operators to prevent SA information from being forwarded to peers.

3.2.  MSDP States

MSDP states are composed of the MSDP global state, the MSDP peer state, statistics information, and SA cache information. The statistics information and SA cache information help the operator retrieve data regarding the protocol's condition.
YANG actions are defined to clear the connection of one specific MSDP peer, clear the connections of all MSDP peers, or clear some or all of the SA caches.

5.  Security Considerations

The YANG module specified in this document defines a schema for data that is designed to be accessed via network management protocols such as NETCONF [RFC 6241] or RESTCONF [RFC 8040]. The lowest NETCONF layer is the secure transport layer, and the mandatory-to-implement secure transport is Secure Shell (SSH) [RFC 6242]. The lowest RESTCONF layer is HTTPS, and the mandatory-to-implement secure transport is TLS [RFC 8446].
The Network Configuration Access Control Model (NACM) [RFC 8341] 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 and data nodes and their sensitivity/vulnerability:
Under /rt:routing/rt:control-plane-protocols/msdp:
msdp:global
This subtree specifies the configuration for the MSDP attributes at the global level. Modifying the configuration can cause MSDP default peers to be deleted or the connection to be rebuilt and can also cause unexpected filtering of the SA.
msdp:peers
This subtree specifies the configuration for the MSDP attributes at the peer level. Modifying the configuration will allow unexpected MSDP peer establishment and unexpected SA information learning and advertisement.
The writability of the "key" field should be strictly controlled. Misoperation of the key will break the existing MSDP connection, and the associated SA caches will also be deleted.
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:
/rt:routing/rt:control-plane-protocols/msdp:
Unauthorized access to any data node of the above subtree can disclose the operational state information of MSDP on this device. For example, disclosure of the peer information may lead to a forged connection attack, and uncorrected modification of the ACL nodes may lead to filter errors.
The "key" field is also a sensitive readable configuration. Unauthorized reading of this field may lead to leaking of the password. Modification will allow the unexpected rebuilding of connected peers.
Authentication configuration is supported via the specification of key-chains [RFC 8177] or the direct specification of the key and the authentication algorithm. Hence, authentication configuration in the "authentication" container inherits the security considerations discussed in [RFC 8177]. This includes the considerations with respect to the local storage and handling of authentication keys.
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:
/rt:routing/rt:control-plane-protocols/msdp:clear-peer
/rt:routing/rt:control-plane-protocols/msdp:clear-sa-cache
Unauthorized access to either of the above action operations can lead to rebuilding of the MSDP peers' connections or deletion of SA records on this device.

A.3.  The Actions Example

This example shows the input data (in JSON) for executing an "sa-cache clear" action to clear the cache of all entries that match the group address of 233.252.0.23.
  {
    "ietf-msdp:sa-cache": {
      "input": {

      }
    }
