Dear i2rs,

Adrian and I posted an I-D which is a rather grandiose attempt to pull
together a number of existing architectural components (PCE, VNTM, I2RS,
policy, etc., etc.). This is a sort of meta-SDN PCE-based architect-thingy.
It needed a name, so we called it Application-Based Network Operations
(ABNO), warning it's not house trained and may answer to various other
names:

A PCE-based Architecture for Application-based Network Operations
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-farrkingel-pce-abno-architecture-00

As some of you will know this is the result of numerous discussions we have
had with a number of people over the last three months.  Where pieces of the
puzzle seem to have been coagulating, we thought it might be nice to build a
framework in which the jelly (jello) can set. It is at a really early stage,
so we are convinced you will all throw stuff at us, but what the hell!

As it stands, the current draft includes:

- A brief description of abstraction functional components and the
interfaces between them. 
- An attempt to supply pointers to existing work (tool kit) where that may
be applicable and there are some use case examples to give a feel for how it
all works.
- Various ABNO use cases. 

A number of areas need further discussion, especially the use cases. We
decided to submit with the few we do have, in order to generate some
feedback - anyone who wants to supply use case(s) and text, would receive
hero status. 

We have pitched the document as a PCE working group document because PCE is
a central component, but the document doesn't really fall inside the PCE
charter. For the time being it might be best to send comments direct to us
rather than clutter up any WG mailing list with discussions that are outside
the charter (but if some WG chair wants to claim the work, then...)

Thanks,
Dan and Adrian

Dear Daniel,

I read this draft and I was interested in Section 3.1 (http://tools.ietf.or=
g/html/draft-farrkingel-pce-abno-architecture-00#section-3.1).=20

The current text makes no assumption whether administrative setup is needed=
 before sending any request to reserve some inter-domain resources. FWIW, w=
e have edited in the past this document: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-b=
oucadair-pce-interas-01. Two types of agreements are needed for such model:=
 (1) between adjacent domains and (2) between the entities managing the end=
 ASes which will terminate LSPs. This document uses COPS to put into effect=
 computed inter-domain LSPs. The document proposes also: a solution to disc=
over a remote AS is supporting the PCE service, a solution to avoid adverti=
sing the IP addresses of routers which are candidate to be tail/head end of=
 an inter-domain LSP, etc. A demo of the full system can be found here: htt=
p://www.ist-mescal.org/roadmap/pcs-demo.avi

Since 2005 (at the edited that document), there are several advances. It wo=
uld be valuable to explain what is the added value of the i2rs approach for=
 this use case compared to what was proposed in the document cited above.=20

Cheers,
Med

Hi Med,

Thanks for your comments.

Because you responded on the I2RS list, I will as well, but maybe we =
should take
this off-list to avoid gumming up the charter discussions with something =
that is
pretty-much off-topic.

In short, you are right that there are commercial and administrative =
policies
that come into play. If I recall right, your I-D was by way of an =
applicability
statement showing how the PCE blocks could fit together. It might be =
interesting
to review your work in the light of hierarchical PCE to see how that all =
bolts
together.

We will look at how we can add some further explanation of the =
interactions of
policy in this process to the example in Section 3.1 (without turning =
this into
a full and detailed blow-by-blow explanation). Would surely welcome your =
input.

You ask what value is added by the I2RS approach to the inter-AS setup =
described
in Section 3.1. My answer: none. And that is why the example in 3.1 does =
not
mention I2RS.

Cheers,
Adrian

Why not data plane interface?  (Control plane and data plane, and their
distinction, are not exactly new terms/concepts...)

> Why not data plane interface?  (Control plane and data plane, and their
> distinction, are not exactly new terms/concepts...)

Several thoughts...

First, I see this as a scoping problem. Trying to create both a control
plane and a data plane interface at the same time opens an entire can of
worms that I don't know if we want to address. Chewable chunks.

Second, there's a lot of other "stuff" going on in the data plane
interface area, while there's almost none (or rather none) going on in
the control plane interface area.

Third, a control plane interface assumes an underlying hybrid model,
which fits most of the unique use cases articulated to this point.

So, I wouldn't say we should rule out a data plane interface forever,
but rather that we should rule it out for right now --focus on that
which is different, and then move towards the more common if the need
arises or the work seems worth doing at some point in the future.

At least that's my thinking.

:-)

    > Why not data plane interface?

The problem is that that's facially ambiguous: does it mean 'an interface to
the data plane to allow control plane entities to manage the operation of the
data plane', or does it mean 'an interface over which the data plane
transfers user data'?

I know, I know, technically "network interface" has the same potential
ambiguities, but I think there's enough history in that term that most
people's first thought on seeing it is "thing that attaches a box into a
particulr network".

I intended the latter, i.e. an interface used to transmit traffic in the
data plane

so where do virtual interfaces (e.g., supported via tunnels) fit in?

IMHO, they should fit in along with normal interfaces --anything that's
layer 3 on those interfaces can be configured. Forwarding information,
however, should not be modeled on the interface, but rather in the RIB.
I know there might be implementations that connect the forwarding
information to the interface itself, but I'd see that as a special case
of a VRF (with which you can associate specific interfaces), rather than
actually trying to manage the forwarding plane on a per-interface basis.

Sounds like the distinction between (managing) tunnels and
encapsulations.  Either way, both are data plane (/forwarding)
constructs that need to be allowed for in the terminology.

I had noticed the same potential ambiguity of different meanings for the sa=
me term "interface", but I did not have a good proposal to address it (othe=
r than leave it as-is). I've done a bit of browsing and scanning through RF=
Cs, and frankly this issue has existed in the past in many occasions -- gre=
p for /interface/i in RFC 791, RFC 2133, RFC 6418, etc. -- many of which us=
e plain "interfaces" for both.

To disambiguate, qualifying each use (one or both) is always an option. In =
the charter's paragraph quoted below, the former meaning can be a "network =
interface", whereas the latter can be a "programmatic interface". "Network =
interface" seems to fit nicely as the we are defining a "routing network", =
the Interfaces Group MIB calls these "network interfaces", and so does NIC.

Another option is to find a non-colliding synonym for one or both uses, but=
 history seems to weight heavily in both terms (e.g., it is not a "link", i=
t is not a ...)

I think that the most direct solution is as follows:

"A routing system is all or part of a routing network such as _a network_ i=
nterface, a collection of
_network interfaces_, a router, or a collection of routers.  _Programmatic_=
 Interfaces to the Routing System..."

Thanks,

Should this include the control plane protocols, as well? The positive

Subject: RE: [i2rs] A new draft on an architecture for application-based
network operations

Hi Med,

Thanks for your comments.

Because you responded on the I2RS list, I will as well, but maybe we =
should
take this off-list to avoid gumming up the charter discussions with
something that is pretty-much off-topic.

In short, you are right that there are commercial and administrative
policies that come into play. If I recall right, your I-D was by way of =
an
applicability statement showing how the PCE blocks could fit together. =
It
might be interesting to review your work in the light of hierarchical =
PCE to
see how that all bolts together.

We will look at how we can add some further explanation of the =
interactions
of policy in this process to the example in Section 3.1 (without turning
this into a full and detailed blow-by-blow explanation). Would surely
welcome your input.

You ask what value is added by the I2RS approach to the inter-AS setup
described in Section 3.1. My answer: none. And that is why the example =
in
3.1 does not mention I2RS.

Cheers,
Adrian

Dear all,

We submitted this I-D which discusses requirements for network automation. =
We thought this document may be of interest of this mailing list.=20
The document includes a (short) discussion about I2RS-related requirements =
(see Section 5.2.2).

	Title           : Requirements for Automated (Configuration) Management
	Author(s)       : Mohamed Boucadair
                          Christian Jacquenet
	Filename        : draft-boucadair-network-automation-requirements-00.txt
	Pages           : 17
	Date            : 2012-12-14

Abstract:
   Given the ever-increasing complexity of the configuration tasks
   required for the dynamic provisioning of IP networks and services,
   this document aims at listing the requirements to drive the
   specification of an automated configuration management framework,
   including the requirements for a protocol to convey configuration
   information towards the managed entities.

Before reading this, what does this document add relative to RFC 3139
and RFC 3535? And from a NETCONF and YANG perspective, is there
anything you guys find not addressed by NETCONF and YANG? (And please
do not confuse data modeling languages with data models.)

You may also want to look at these documents, close to be submitted to
the AD:

    draft-ietf-netmod-interfaces-cfg-08
    draft-ietf-netmod-ip-cfg-07
    draft-ietf-netmod-routing-cfg-06

There is work being done in this space, substantial work. Saying
something is embryonic is not necessarily a good reason to start work
on another baby. First wait for delivery. ;-)

Hi,

I have ploughed through the emails discussing the charter and come up with some
minor tweaks.

1. "Interface"
There was a strong desire to separate the two meanings of "interface". However,
the solutions suggested were all rather variable. In fact, the word is only used
in the first paragraph of the charter, so it seems best to be long-winded for
the sake of clarity. This leads to:

==
A routing system is all or part of a routing network.  A part of a routing
network may be a  single router or a collection of routers.  The routing system
may be further divided to be an interface over which data traffic is forwarded,
or a collection of such interfaces.

I2RS facilitates real-time or event driven interaction with the routing system
through a collection of control or management interfaces.  These allow
information, policies, and operational parameters to be injected into and
retrieved (as read or notification) from the routing system while retaining data
consistency and coherency across the routers and routing infrastructure, and
between multiple interactions with the routing system.
==

2. Include Control Plane Protocols
This got immediate support and leads to:

==
A routing system is all or part of a routing network.  A part of a routing
network may be a  single router or a collection of routers.  The routing system
may be further divided to be an interface over which data traffic is forwarded,
or a collection of such interfaces.  The routing system also includes the
control plane protocols that operate the routers.

I2RS facilitates real-time or event driven interaction with the routing system
through a collection of control or management interfaces.  These allow
information, policies, and operational parameters to be injected into and
retrieved (as read or notification) from the routing system while retaining data
consistency and coherency across the routers and routing infrastructure, and
between multiple interactions with the routing system.
==

3. Rationalise the Use Cases
There was good support in theory (at the BoF) for reducing / focussing the use
cases., but as I predicted, the rule of thumb is "Cut out other people's use
cases. Leave mine in."
There were some emails of a generally supportive nature for focussing the use
cases a bit better, and some suggestions for additional (but focussed) use
cases. 
Here is my suggestion based on:
  draft-atlas-irs-problem-statement section 3
  draft-keyupate-irs-bgp-usecases
  draft-white-irs-use-case-00.txt section 2
  draft-white-irs-use-case-00.txt section 3
  draft-white-irs-use-case-00.txt section 4
  draft-amante-irs-topology-use-cases
==
OLD
- Tightly scoped key use cases for operational use of I2RS. These use cases will
include at least:
   o Interactions with the RIB.
   o Association of routing policies with routing state.
   o The ability to extract information about topology from the
     network. Injection and creation of topology will not be
     considered as an initial work item.

   Other use cases may be adopted by the working group only after milestones
have been added to the charter page.
NEW
- Tightly scoped key use cases for operational use of I2RS. These use cases will
include at least:
   o Interactions with the RIB. Allowing read and write access to the RIB and to
the policies used to construct the FIB, but no direct access to the FIB.
   o Control and analysis of the operation of BGP including the setting and
activation of policies related to the protocol.
   o Control, optimization, and choice of traffic exit points from networks
based on more information than provided by the dynamic control plane.
   o Distributed reaction to network-based attacks through quickly modification
of the control plane behavior to reroute traffic for one destination while
leaving a standard mechanisms (filters, metrics, and policy) in place for other
routes.
   o Service layer routing to improve on existing hub-and-spoke traffic
   o The ability to extract information about topology from the network.
Injection and creation of topology will not be considered as an initial work
item.

   Other use cases may be adopted by the working group only after milestones
have been added to the charter page.
END
==

4. Rationalise milestones
There was concern that each and every document did not need to be listed in the
milestones.  And it was noted that the chairs (once the WG is running) can add
milestones as they consider useful.
Additionally, we need to have some proposed dates against the milestones.
That leads to:

==
Jul 2013 : Request publication of an Informational document defining the problem
statement
Jul 2013 : Request publication of an Informational document defining the
architecture framework
Aug 2013 : Request publication of Informational documents describing use cases
Sep 2013 : Request publication of an Informational document defining the
protocol requirements
Sep 2013 : Request publication of an Informational document defining encoding
language requirements
Nov 2013 : Request publication of Standards Track documents specifying
information models
Nov 2013 : Request publication of an Informational document providing an
analysis of existing IETF and other protocols and encoding languages against the
requirements
Dec 2013 : Consider re-chartering
==

I have made these changes and updated the draft charter at
http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/charter-ietf-i2rs/

It is my intention to put this charter to the IESG early in the New Year. So
please review and comment heartily.

Thanks,
Adrian

Thanks Adrian,

I support including both 1 and 2, but if I need to choose then prefer
1, comments in lines;

I think If included we need to define the interface within this plane,
separating I2RS protocol and the control operation protocol.

Yes preferable we can leave it after in the meetings and discussion
while the work and efforts is flowing, so I agree with your suggest.

Not sure what you mean.
The use of upper case here would have no meaning.
How is "should be in" more useful that "is"?

You have s/to be/by/
Doesn't "by" imply that it is the interface that does the dividing?
I don't think that language works.

I think an "operational protocol that is within the control plane" is a "control
plane protocol."

I know this was bikeshedded quite a bit -- and I have no objection to
the dual meaning -- but I do think that these two paragraphs mix
"interface" in a way that might be confusing.  A "router" already has a
management "interface" (either virtual or physical) and that is
independent of the "interface" mentioned in paragraph two.
Unfortunately, I don't have a better suggestion other than putting the
word "programmatic" or "structured" in there to help disambiguate the
two uses.  However, since this has been beaten to death, and this is
what the majority agrees to, then so be it.

More of a nit, but I think the parenthetical portion should read, "(as
read or by notification)

While it's written correctly here, you have two 'b's in "describing" in
the web charter.

"The I2RS working group works to develop a framework and architecture

Another grammatical nit, but perhaps the last two sentences could read:

I think many object to programmatic on account of we are not building an API,
but a protocol.

While "interface" now appears multiple times in the paragraphs, each is
specifically qualified.

Yeah, that's why I wasn't terribly happy with either word.

Okay, I guess my reading of the second use of "interface" didn't make it
clear that it designates a hook into the routing system as opposed to a
physical or logical port on which to pass generic management and control
data.

Thanks!  Happy holidays.

Hi Adrian,

I agree that my input/suggestions for the charter are not necessary,
my idea was to just separate if possible the definitions of RS and the
I2RS to make it flexible until we agree on such architectures.
However, some inline;

In the charter of  WG it is better we don't define the routing
systems. When using "is" we are somehow defining the routing system,
but using SHOULD, MUST and MAY, make clear pecifications direction
with the interfaces to these systems. The "is" seems like "must",
which I don't prefer in this stage.

I agree, but I prefer to avoid the definition of routing system as
some prefered to avoid separating data and control interface to RS.
Also we still will discuss the I2RS architecture in the WG. I just as
not mentioning data interface and control interface to RS as types, as
we may not have to define control plane in the routing system.
Therefore, my concerns is if we mention the data and control interface
then it is ok to mention the control plane as must be included in the
routing system.

Please note that if you see that the above is not reasonable, the you
may ignore, it is just thoughts,

OK, I understand your point.
I think that the text describes the "routing system" which this working group
will work on.
I'm also pretty sure it describes every routing system that exists.

I think the conversation I heard on the list was that people strongly wanted to
consider the control plane as part of the routing system.

I would also add that "data interface and control interface to RS" is subtly
wrong. The word "to" is at odds with the intention. The intention is that these
interfaces are part of the routing system, not interface to the routing system.

No problem.
Through discussion we get solutions.

I think that only I2RS servers must be part of the RS and not I2RS
clients. However, I think I should read more into the drafts again,
thanking you,

My sense is we (the authors of each of these documents) should combine
the sections indicated into one document --this would expidite the
work... We can work together to build a single "leftovers" document, or
figure how to structure another set of documents that could be used for
future phases of work after this initial batch is considered.

My only objection here is the words "at least..." I think we want to
restrict the charter at this point, not set ourselves up to increase
scope from the start. I think we're looking for an upper bound, not a
baseline.

I'm afraid these might be too broad in terms of the solution set. The
last 5 should fit within the first one, rather than being expansions on
the first one, I think.

I understand that important reason, but I prefer not and leave it as
*baseline*, because we are in the stage to think in and out the box,
open ideas and welcome new input not to keep it into some drafts'
scope. The proposed charter does form a solid framework direction not
structure. If we do restrict work to thoes drafts then the drafts are
the source of charter not the participants' ideas joining the WG. I
think it is good to encourage new participants to join as well from
the charter. As I am not an author of any of thoes drafts (still under
my and others review) and thoes drafts still didn't get to alot

I don't think all are expansions of the first one, however, it seems
it was a reflection of the drafts on this proposed charter. I agree to
remove the last 5 if confusing by rewrite it into two points that may
relate to participants concerns (ending with three points) as:

AB>Amend to>  - The key use cases for operational use of I2RS. These
use cases will include at least:

o Interactions with the RIB. Allowing read and write access to the RIB
(includes to extract information about topology from the network) and
to the policies used to construct the FIB, but no direct access to the
FIB.

o Control and analysis of the operations of Router(s) including the setting
and activation; of policies related to the routing protocol, and
including the optimizing of traffic exit points.

o Service layer routing to improve on existing hub-and-spoke traffic.

Important Note: Injection and creation of topology will not be
considered as an initial
work item.

Regards
AB

The problem we currently have isn't leaving the door open to new ideas,
or even generating new ideas --we seem to have tons of ideas about where
this work could/would be useful. The problem we currently have is
limiting the scope narrowly enough to do effective work --to chunk the
work up into small enough pieces to make it tractable.

I.e., we are in danger of biting off more than we can chew, so we need
to slice into smaller pieces. Not that we don't want to eat the whole
thing, but we don't want to eat it right this second, and all in one
bite, lest we choke...

"This is because existing standards have either failed to (1) be
   massively adopted so far ...
or (2) address service provider and network
   operator requirements about configuration framework and procedures."

[WEG] I think this is incomplete as currently presented. I don't think it's=
 a failing of the existing standards, and I think the challenge is much lar=
ger.

First, a quote I've always found appropriate for framing this discussion: "=
The first rule of any technology used in a business is that automation appl=
ied to an efficient operation will magnify the efficiency. The second is th=
at automation applied to an inefficient operation will magnify the ineffici=
ency." - Bill Gates

There are two different but related issues with automation of network provi=
sioning and management:
1) a lack of will to invest in a real, continually improved and updated aut=
omation environment - it's sometimes cheaper to "throw headcount at a probl=
em" than to make a long-term investment in automation, especially since the=
 industry is littered with attempts to do automation that have ultimately f=
ailed, making the return on the investment somewhat questionable. It also r=
equires a permanent staff of people to maintain and improve the system, rat=
her than it being a once and done sort of investment. Some companies are go=
od about this, because they have management that understands the productivi=
ty multiplier that proper automation can provide and are willing to invest =
in it, others are not, sometimes because they try to force a tool to automa=
te their current process as-is rather than trying to streamline their proce=
ss around the capabilities of the tool.
2) healthy mistrust by operators and management of the automation's level o=
f intelligence and ability to make the "right" decision given all possible =
scenarios it might encounter. This could be restated as an inability to eit=
her characterize or pre-build business rules around all possible scenarios.=
 It's unclear to me whether this is because the tools available are simply =
too crude to adequately represent the series of scenarios that your average=
 human operator is capable of handling, or because the average SP has too m=
uch variability in its scenarios such that "if A occurs, do B" isn't realis=
tic for all possible values of A. We may need to differentiate between simp=
le business logic and complex when it comes to automation requirements, sin=
ce it's much harder to solve the latter, but we can maybe make good progres=
s on the former.

When it comes to network automation, the options today are usually either "=
build your own system mostly from scratch" or "buy a COTS package and then =
work to adapt it for your needs and integrate it into your internal systems=
". Both of these options can use standards-based protocols, but those could=
 be thought of as the modular building blocks for a "some assembly required=
" implementation that is almost always bespoke. Even if you have good north=
/southbound APIs to work with, someone has to work on the glue to hold ever=
ything together. A good implementation requires a lot of work to document f=
unctional spec and business logic (or adapt existing process to better fit =
the limitations and capabilities of the tool), a lot of testing to ensure t=
hat things are working properly, and the ability to make changes easy enoug=
h that it isn't simpler/cheaper to bypass the automation and have someone d=
o it manually when something changes. So in a way, the necessary modularity=
 for flexibility and adaptability and the necessary predefinition to make i=
mplementation easy "out of the box" run counter to one another. The good ne=
ws is, it's extensible, so you can adapt it for your needs. The bad news? I=
t's extensible, so you likely MUST adapt it for you needs in order for it t=
o be useful.


3.4/3.5 - there are more performance and scaling impacts than this - most n=
otably, a poorly-implemented discovery mechanism will do things like attemp=
t synchronization too frequently, or do it inefficiently by attempting to p=
ull down a complete configuration and then do diffs on its stored data, rat=
her than requesting  diffs directly and storing those updates, or waiting f=
or a notification that something it cares about has been changed before goi=
ng out to synchronize with that particular network element ONLY. It may als=
o try to discover network elements by walking through IP ranges, which does=
n't really work for IPv6. It's also pretty common for there to be a lack of=
 coordination between different tools that need access to the same data, an=
d rather than pulling the data once and then replicating it to all of the d=
ifferent tools that need it, each tool polls separately, leading to situati=
ons where a box collapses under the load of too-frequent and overly-aggress=
ive SNMP polling, etc.
I remember problems in production with a certain VPN provisioning software =
where its timeout for pulling the complete configuration was too short, and=
 on routers with large and complex VPN configurations the config sync step =
would fail because it took the router too long to uncompress and "display" =
the config to the TTY, especially if the base CPU load was too high.
There are a good number of scaling/performance considerations for VPNs spec=
ifically discussed in draft-gs-vpn-scaling that may help with this discussi=
on.

I generally agree with the requirements, but it's possible that the above d=
iscussion will generate additional requirements, so I didn't spend a lot of=
 time pondering them yet.
