This document defines a YANG data model for representing an abstract view of the provider network topology that contains Intermediate System to intermediate System (ISIS) information. This document augments the 'ietf-network' data model by adding ISIS concepts.¶
The YANG data model defined in this document conforms to the Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA).¶

This document defines a YANG data model for representing an abstract view of the provider network topology that contains Intermediate System to intermediate System (ISIS) information. The data model augments ietf-network module [RFC8345] by adding ISIS information.¶
Network operators perform regular what-if sceanarios analysis and capacity planning processes. Those what-if analysis and capacity planning processes require, among other information, a topological view (nodes, links, network interconnection) of the deployed network. Thanks to the definition of the ietf-network model in [RFC8345] network operators can use an API to dynamically get the topological information from a network controller/ network management system. On top of the work in [RFC8345], [RFC8346] and [RFC8944] extend the generic network and network topology data models with topology attributes that are specific to Layer 3 and Layer 2. However, there is not any model that exposes the IGP details. This information is required in the IP/MPLS planning process to properly assess the required network resources to meet the traffic demands in normal and failure scenarios. A whatif analysis requires knowledge on the different levels and areas.¶
The main objective of this model is to represent the most relevant ISIS topology attributes.This document defines a YANG data model for representing, managing and controlling the ISIS topology. The data model augments ietf-network module [RFC8345] by adding the ISIS information.¶
This document explains the scope and purpose of the ISIS topology model and how the topology and service models fit together.¶
The YANG data model defined in this document conforms to the Network Management Datastore Architecture [RFC8342].¶
This document assumes that the reader is familiar with the contents of [RFC8345]. The document uses terms from those documents.¶
The terminology for describing YANG data models is found in [RFC7950], [RFC8795] and [RFC8346].¶
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 [RFC2119], [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here.¶
Authors include a simplified graphical representation of the data model is used in Section 3 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 the following table.¶
Prefix | Yang Module | Reference |
---|---|---|
isisnt | ietf-l3-isis-topology | RFCXXX |
yang | ietf-yang-types | [RFC6991] |
RFC Editor Note: Please replace XXXX with the RFC number assigned to this document. Please remove this note.¶
The abstract (base) network data model is defined in the "ietf-network" module of [RFC8345]. The ISIS-topology builds on the network data model defined in the "ietf-network" module [RFC8345], augmenting the nodes with ISIS information, which anchor the links and are contained in nodes).¶
There is a set of parameters and augmentations that are included at the node level. Each parameter and description are detailed following:¶
There is a second set of parameters and augmentations are included at the termination point level. Each parameter is listed as follows:¶
Figure 1 below shows the tree diagram of the YANG data model defined in module ietf-l3-isis-topology.yang (Section 4).¶
This module imports types from [RFC8343] and [RFC8345]. Following the YANG model is presented.¶
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 [RFC5246].¶
The NETCONF access control model [RFC6536] 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.¶
