| Zhou, Ed., et al. | Expires 10 June 2024 | [Page] |
In-situ Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (IOAM) is an example of an on-path hybrid measurement method. IOAM defines a method to produce operational and telemetry information that may be exported using the in-band or out-of-band method. RFC9197 and RFC9326 discuss the data fields and associated data types for IOAM. This document defines a YANG module for the configuration of IOAM functions.¶

In-situ Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (IOAM) is an example of an on-path hybrid measurement method. IOAM defines a method to produce operational and telemetry information that may be exported using the in-band or out-of-band method. The data types and data formats for IOAM data records have been defined in [RFC9197] and [RFC9326]. The IOAM data can be embedded in many protocol encapsulations such as Network Services Header (NSH) and IPv6.¶
This document defines a data model for the configuration of IOAM capabilities using the YANG data modeling language [RFC7950]. This YANG model supports five IOAM options, which are:¶
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 BCP14, [RFC2119], [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here.¶
The following terms are defined in [RFC7950] and are used in this specification:¶
The terminology for describing YANG data models is found in [RFC7950].¶
Tree diagrams used in this document follow the notation defined in [RFC8340].¶
The IOAM model is organized as list of profiles as shown in the following figure. Each profile associates with one flow and the corresponding IOAM information.¶
The "ioam-info" is a container for all the read only information that assists monitoring systems in the interpretation of the IOAM data.¶

...¶
In the "ioam-profiles", the "enabled" is an administrative configuration. When it is set to true, IOAM configuration is enabled for the system. Meanwhile, the IOAM data-plane functionality is enabled.¶
The "filter" is used to identify a flow, where the IOAM profile can apply. There may be multiple filter types. ACL [RFC8519] is a common way to specify a flow. Each IOAM profile can associate with an ACE(Access Control Entry). IOAM actions MUST be driven by the accepted packets, when the matched ACE "forwarding" action is "accept".¶
The IOAM data can be encapsulated into multiple protocols, e.g., IPv6 [RFC9486] and NSH [RFC9452]. The "protocol-type" is used to indicate where the IOAM is applied. For example, if the "protocol-type" is IPv6, the IOAM ingress node will encapsulate the associated flow with the IPv6-IOAM [RFC9486] format.¶
In this document, IOAM data includes five encapsulation types, i.e., incremental tracing data, preallocated tracing data, direct export data, proof of transit data and end to end data. In practice, multiple IOAM data types can be encapsulated into the same IOAM header. The "ioam-profile" contains a set of sub-profiles, each of which relates to one encapsulation type. The configured object may not support all the sub-profiles. The supported sub-profiles are indicated by 4 defined features, i.e., "incremental-trace", "preallocated-trace", "direct-export", "proof-of-transit" and "edge-to-edge".¶
The IOAM tracing data is expected to be collected at every node that a packet traverses to ensure visibility into the entire path a packet takes within an IOAM domain. The preallocated tracing option will create pre-allocated space for each node to populate its information . The "preallocated-tracing-profile" contains the detailed information for the preallocated tracing data. The information includes:¶
enabled: indicates whether the preallocated tracing profile is enabled.¶
node-action: indicates the operation (e.g., encapsulate IOAM header, transit the IOAM data, or decapsulate IOAM header) applied to the dedicated flow.¶
use-namespace: indicate the namespace used for the trace types.¶
trace-type: indicates the per-hop data to be captured by the IOAM enabled nodes and included in the node data list.¶
max-length: specifies the maximum length of the node data list in octets. The max-length is only defined at the encapsulation node.¶
+--rw preallocated-tracing-profile {preallocated-trace}?
+--rw enabled? boolean
+--rw node-action? ioam-node-action
+--rw trace-types
| +--rw use-namespace? ioam-namespace
| +--rw trace-type* ioam-trace-type
+--rw max-length? uint32¶
The incremental tracing option contains a variable node data fields where each node allocates and pushes its node data immediately following the option header. The "incremental-tracing-profile" contains the detailed information for the incremental tracing data. The detailed information is the same as the Preallocated Tracing Profile.¶
+--rw incremental-tracing-profile {incremental-trace}?
+--rw enabled? boolean
+--rw node-action? ioam-node-action
+--rw trace-types
| +--rw use-namespace? ioam-namespace
| +--rw trace-type* ioam-trace-type
+--rw max-length? uint32¶
The direct export option is used as a trigger for IOAM data to be directly exported or locally aggregated without being pushed into in-flight data packets. The "direct-export-profile" contains the detailed information for the direct export data. The detailed information is the same as the Preallocated Tracing Profile, but with two more optional variables:¶
flow-id: is used to correlate the exported data of the same flow from multiple nodes and from multiple packets.¶
enable-sequence-number: indicates whether the sequence number is used in the direct export option.¶
+--rw direct-export-profile {direct-export}?
+--rw enabled? boolean
+--rw node-action? ioam-node-action
+--rw trace-types
| +--rw use-namespace? ioam-namespace
| +--rw trace-type* ioam-trace-type
+--rw flow-id? uint32
+--rw enable-sequence-number? boolean¶
The IOAM Proof of Transit data is to support the path or service function chain verification use cases. The "pot-profile" contains the detailed information for the proof of transit data. "pot-type" indicates a particular POT variant that specifies the POT data that is included. There may be several POT types, which have different configuration data. To align with [RFC9197], this document only defines IOAM POT type 0. User need to augment this module for the configuration of a specifc POT type.¶
+--rw pot-profile {proof-of-transit}?
+--rw enabled? boolean
+--rw pot-type? ioam-pot-type¶
The IOAM edge-to-edge option is to carry data that is added by the IOAM encapsulating node and interpreted by IOAM decapsulating node. The "e2e-profile" contains the detailed information for the edge-to-edge data. The detailed information includes:¶
enabled: indicates whether the edge-to-edge profile is enabled.¶
node-action is the same semantic as in Section 2.2.¶
use-namespace: indicate the namespace used for the edge-to-edge types.¶
e2e-type: indicates data to be carried from the ingress IOAM node to the egress IOAM node.¶
+--rw e2e-profile {edge-to-edge}?
+--rw enabled? boolean
+--rw node-action? ioam-node-action
+--rw e2e-types
+--rw use-namespace? ioam-namespace
+--rw e2e-type* ioam-e2e-type¶

<CODE ENDS>¶
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 [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 and data nodes and their sensitivity/vulnerability:¶
/ioam/ioam-profiles/admin-config¶
The items in the container above include the top level administrative configurations related to the IOAM functionalities and all the IOAM profiles. Unexpected changes to these items could lead to the IOAM function disruption and/ or misbehavior of all the IOAM profiles.¶
/ioam/ioam-profiles/ioam-profile¶
The entries in the list above include the whole IOAM profile configurations which indirectly create or modify the device configurations. Unexpected changes to these entries could lead to the mistake of the IOAM behavior for the corresponding flows.¶
RFC Ed.: In this section, replace all occurrences of 'XXXX' with the actual RFC number (and remove this note).¶
IANA is requested to assign a new URI from the IETF XML Registry [RFC3688]. The following URI is suggested:¶
URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-ioam
Registrant Contact: The IESG.
XML: N/A; the requested URI is an XML namespace.¶
This document also requests a new YANG module name in the YANG Module Names registry [RFC7950] with the following suggestion:¶
name: ietf-ioam
namespace: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-ioam
prefix: ioam
reference: RFC XXXX¶
For their valuable comments, discussions, and feedback, we wish to acknowledge Greg Mirsky, Reshad Rahman, Tom Petch, Mickey Spiegel, Thomas Graf, Alex Huang Feng and Justin Iurman.¶
An example of incremental tracing profile is depicted in the following figure. This configuration is received by an IOAM ingress node. This node encapsulates the IOAM data in IPv6 Hop by Hop option header. The trace type indicates that each on path node need to capture the transit delay, and add to the IOAM node data list. The incremental tracing data space is variable, however, the node data list must not exceed 512 bytes.¶

An example of pre-allocated tracing profile is depicted in the following figure. This configuration is received by an IOAM ingress node. This node firstly identifies the target flow by using ACL "test-acl", and then encapsulates the IOAM data in the NSH header. The trace type indicates that each on path node need to capture the name space specific data in the short format, and add to the IOAM node data list. This node preallocates the node data list in the packect with 512 bytes.¶

The following figure shows an example of edge-to-edge option. This configuration is received by an IOAM egress node. This node detects the IOAM edge-to-edge option in the IPv6 extension header, and removes the option to clean all the IOAM data. As the IOAM egress node, it may collect the edge-to-edge data and deliver to the data exporting process.¶
