Table of Contents

1. Introduction

This document defines a YANG [RFC7950] data model for Network Time Protocol [RFC5905] implementations. Note that the model could also be used to configure NTPv3 [RFC1305] (see Section 7).

The data model covers configuration of system parameters of NTP, such as access rules, authentication and VPN Routing and Forwarding (VRF) binding, and also various modes of NTP and per-interface parameters. It also provides access to information about running state of NTP implementations.

1.1. Operational State

NTP Operational State is included in the same tree as NTP configuration, consistent with Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA) [RFC8342]. NTP current state and statistics are also maintained in the operational state. The operational state also includes the NTP association state.

1.2. Terminology

The terminology used in this document is aligned to [RFC5905] and [RFC1305].

1.3. Tree Diagrams

A simplified graphical representation of the data model is used in this document. This document uses the graphical representation of data models defined in [RFC8340].

1.4. Prefixes in Data Node Names

In this document, names of data nodes 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.

             +--:(all)

The full data model tree for the YANG module "ietf-ntp" is in Appendix A.

This data model defines one top-level container which includes both the NTP configuration and the NTP running state including access rules, authentication, associations, unicast configurations, interfaces, system status and associations.

3. Relationship with NTPv4-MIB

If the device implements the NTPv4-MIB [RFC5907], data nodes from YANG module can be mapped to table entries in NTPv4-MIB.

The following tables list the YANG data nodes with corresponding objects in the NTPv4-MIB.

4. Relationship with RFC 7317

This section describes the relationship with NTP definition in Section 3.2 System Time Management of [RFC7317] . YANG data nodes in /ntp/ also support per-interface configuration which is not supported in /system/ntp. If the yang model defined in this document is implemented, then /system/ntp SHOULD NOT be used and MUST be ignored.

5. Access Rules

The access rules in this section refers to the on-the-wire access control to the NTP service and completely independent of any management API access control, e.g., NETCONF Access Control Model (NACM) ([RFC8341]).

An Access Control List (ACL) is one of the basic elements used to configure device-forwarding behavior. An ACL is a user-ordered set of rules that is used to filter traffic on a networking device.

As per [RFC1305] (for NTPv3) and [RFC5905] (for NTPv4), NTP could include an access-control feature that prevents unauthorized access and controls which peers are allowed to update the local clock. Further it is useful to differentiate between the various kinds of access and attach a different acl-rule to each. For this, the YANG module allows such configuration via /ntp/access-rules. The access-rule itself is configured via [RFC8519].

Following access modes are supported -

Query-only is the most restricted where as the peer is the full access authority. The ability to give different ACL rules for different access modes allows for a greater control by the operator.

6. Key Management

As per [RFC1305] (for NTPv3) and [RFC5905] (for NTPv4), when authentication is enabled, NTP employs a crypto-checksum, computed by the sender and checked by the receiver, together with a set of predistributed algorithms, and cryptographic keys indexed by a key identifier included in the NTP message. This key-id is a 32-bit unsigned integer that MUST be configured on the NTP peers before the authentication could be used. For this reason, this YANG module allows such configuration via /ntp/authentication/authentication-keys/. Further at the time of configuration of NTP association (for example unicast-server), the key-id is specified.

The 'nacm:default-deny-all' is used to prevent retrieval of the actual key information after it is set.

7. NTP Version

This YANG model allow a version to be configured for the NTP association i.e. an operator can control the use of NTPv3 [RFC1305] or NTPv4 [RFC5905] for each association it forms. This allows backward compatibility with a legacy system. Note that the version 3 of NTP [RFC1305] is obsoleted by NTPv4 [RFC5905].

9. Usage Example

This section include examples for illustration purposes.

Note: '\' line wrapping per [RFC8792].

9.1. Unicast association

This example describes how to configure a preferred unicast server present at 192.0.2.1 running at port 1025 with authentication-key 10 and version 4 (default).

  <edit-config xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0">
    <target>
      <running/>
    </target>
    <config>
      <ntp xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-ntp">
        <unicast-configuration>
          <address>192.0.2.1</address>
          <type>uc-server</type>
          <prefer>true</prefer>
          <port>1025</port>
          <authentication>
            <symmetric-key>
              <key-id>10</key-id>
            </symmetric-key>
          </authentication>
        </unicast-configuration>
      </ntp>
    </config>
  </edit-config>

An example with IPv6 would use an IPv6 address (say 2001:db8::1) in the "address" leaf with no change in any other data tree.

  <edit-config xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0">
    <target>
      <running/>
    </target>
    <config>
      <ntp xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-ntp">

10. IANA Considerations

10.1. IETF XML Registry

This document registers a URI in the "IETF XML Registry" [RFC3688]. Following the format in RFC 3688, the following registration has been made.

URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-ntp

Registrant Contact: The IESG.

XML: N/A; the requested URI is an XML namespace.

10.2. YANG Module Names

This document registers a YANG module in the "YANG Module Names" registry [RFC6020].

Name: ietf-ntp

Namespace: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-ntp

Prefix: ntp

Reference: RFC XXXX

Note: The RFC Editor will replace XXXX with the number assigned to this document once it becomes an RFC.

11. 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 [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 NETCONF 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. The 'nacm:default-deny-all' is used to prevent retrieval of the key information.

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:

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:

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:

The leaf /ntp/authentication/authentication-keys/algorithm can be set to cryptographic algorithms that are no longer considered to be secure. As per [RFC8573], AES-CMAC is the recommended algorithm.
