The IESG discussed in the telechat today the proposal for the
re-chartering of the NETCONF WG and sent it to IETF review. You should
see the announcement in the next few days. The discussion for the
approval of the new charter is scheduled for the IESG telechat on 11/15.


Thanks for the effort until now and please be ready to participate and
support the upcoming discussions.=20

A new charter for the NETCONF Working Group is right now in review. We
expect it to be approved before the Vancouver meeting.=20

As you may know Andy Bierman and Simon Linen who chaired the working
group from its start express the desire to step down from their
positions of co-chairs by the time the Working Group engages in the new
phase of NETCONF.=20

The ADs have decided to write down a brief profile for the WG chair(s)
and issue an open call for candidates.=20

We would like you to consider this profile and either nominate yourself
or other people that you think that would fit well in this role by
sending mail to the OPS ADs.
(dromasca@avaya.com and rbonica@juniper.net)

We do not intend to disclose the names of the nominees in public, but we
will probably solicit for feedback with various other people. If you
have a problem with your name being mentioned in this context, pls let
us know.

Note that this profile is written for a somewhat ideal candidate. We
fully realize that such people are probably non-existent, so don't
hesitate to nominate somebody who in your opinion would fit this role
quite well but doesn't fit this profile 100%. And the intend is to
select two co-chairs that can complement each other and work together.

As for the profile:
=20
- Good management and process skills, including but not limited to
  choosing and supervising editors, commitment and follow-through on
  the charter, active management of the working group discussions,
  and handling IETF process steps in prompt fashion.
- Good basic knowledge of the NETCONF protocols
- Understanding of the requirements/needs/applications of management
protocols.
- Operational background/experience is very desirable.
- Enough available time. For example, preferable not more than one
  other working chair role in IETF.
- There is no requirement that the candidate has been an IETF working
  group chair before, but it helps if there is some evidence that the
  candidate can fulfill such a role (e.g.. other management role in
  other places than IETF etc.)

We would like to receive your comments & nominations by November 16,
2007 and we plan to make a decision as soon as possible thereafter.
It will be helpful if you indicate in your nomination mail how you or
the nominated candidate fits this profile as best as possible.
=20
And last but not least, we would like to thank Andy and Simon for
leading and guiding the work to develop NETCONF. Their contribution was
tremendous and we hope that they will continue to contribute to the
NETCONF WG and other related activities in the area.=20

Ron and Dan

Description of Working Group:
Wes Hardaker is Technical Advisor for Security Matters

Configuration of networks of devices has become a critical requirement
for operators in today's highly interoperable networks. Operators from
large to small have developed their own mechanisms or used vendor
specific mechanisms to transfer configuration data to and from a device,
and for examining device state information which may impact the
configuration. Each of these mechanisms may be different in various
aspects, such as session establishment, user authentication,
configuration data exchange, and error responses.

The NETCONF Working Group is chartered to produce a protocol suitable
for network configuration, with the following characteristics:

- Provides retrieval mechanisms which can differentiate between
configuration data and non-configuration data
- Is extensible enough that vendors will provide access to all
configuration data on the device using a single protocol
- Has a programmatic interface (avoids screen scraping and
formatting-related changes between releases)
- Uses a textual data representation, that can be easily manipulated
using non-specialized text manipulation tools.
- Supports integration with existing user authentication methods
- Supports integration with existing configuration database systems
- Supports network wide configuration transactions (with features such
as locking and rollback capability)
- Is as transport-independent as possible
- Provides the following support for asynchronous notifications:
- Specify the <hello> message (capability exchange) details to support
notifications.
- Specify the application mapping details to support notifications.
- Specify the protocol syntax and semantics of a notification message.
- Specify or select a notification content information model.
- Specify a mechanism for controlling the delivery (turn on/off) of
notifications during a session.
- Specify a mechanism for selectively receiving a configurable subset of
all possible notification types.

The NETCONF protocol will use XML for data encoding purposes, because
XML is a widely deployed standard which is supported by a large number
of applications. XML also supports hierarchical data structures.

The NETCONF protocol should be independent of the data definition
language and data models used to describe configuration and state data.

However, the authorization model used in the protocol is dependent on
the data model. Although these issues must be fully addressed to develop
standard data models, only a small part of this work will be initially
addressed. This group will specify requirements for standard data models
in order to fully support the NETCONF protocol, such as:

- identification of principals, such as user names or distinguished
names
- mechanism to distinguish configuration from non-configuration data
- XML namespace conventions
- XML usage guidelines

It should be possible to transport the NETCONF protocol using several
different protocols. The group will select at least one suitable
transport mechanism, and define a mapping for the selected protocol(s).

The initial work (has completed) and was restricted to the following
items:

- NETCONF Protocol Specification, which defines the operational model,
protocol operations, transaction model, data model requirements,
security requirements, and transport layer requirements.

- NETCONF over SSH Specification: Implementation Mandatory; NETCONF over
BEEP Specification: Implementation Optional; NETCONF over SOAP
Specification: Implementation Optional; These documents define how the
NETCONF protocol is used with each transport protocol selected by the
working group, and how it meets the security and transport layer
requirements of the NETCONF Protocol Specification.

Additional Notification work (as described above) will now be addressed
since the initial work has been completed.

An individual submission Internet Draft has been proposed to the WG as
the starting point for the Notification work. The WG shall adopt the
document identified as 'draft-chisholm-NETCONF-event-01.txt' as the
starting point for this work.

A second phase of incremental development of NETCONF will include the
following items:

1. Fine-grain locking: The base NETCONF protocol only provides a lock
for the entire configuration datastore, which is not deemed to meet
important operational and security requirements. The NETCONF working
group will produce a standards-track RFC specifying a mechanism for
fine-grain locking of the NETCONF configuration datastore.

(The initial draft will be based on
draft-lengyel-ngo-partial-lock-00.txt barring additional contributions
from the community.)

2. NETCONF monitoring: It is considered best practice for IETF working
groups to include management of their protocols within the scope of the
solution they are providing. NETCONF does not provide this capability.
The NETCONF working group will produce a standards-track RFC with
mechanisms allowing NETCONF itself to be used to monitor some aspects of
NETCONF operation.

(The initial draft will be based on
draft-chisholm-netconf-monitoring-00.txt barring additional
contributions from the community.)

3. Schema advertisement: Currently the NETCONF protocol is able to
advertise which protocol features are supported on a particular
netconf-capable device. However, there is currently no way to discover
which XML Schema are supported on the device. The NETCONF working group
will produce a standards-track RFC with mechanisms making this discovery
possible.

This item may be merged with "NETCONF monitoring" into a single
document.

(The initial draft will be based on
draft-scott-netconf-schema-query-00.txt barring additional contributions
from the community.)

4. NETCONF over TLS - based on implementation experience there is a need
for a standards track document to define NETCONF over TLS as an optional
transport for NETCONF

(The initial draft will be based on
draft-badra-tls-netconf-04.txt barring additional contributions from the
community.)

The following are currently not considered in scope for re-chartering at
this time, but may be candidates for work when there is community
consensus to take them on. Individual submissions are being encouraged.

o Access Control requirements
o General improvements to the base protocol o NETCONF access to
SMI-based MIB data o The Bill Fenner problem: Address real or perceived
issue that "giving SSH for NETCONF gives full SSH access to the box"

Hi,

The WG Last Call for the NETCONF Notifications draft
is now completed.  There were a few minor bugfixes
and clarifications that were noted on the WG mailing list.

A new version (-11) will be created with these minor
corrections, and forwarded to the IESG for publication consideration.
There will not be another WGLC for the this document.


Andy

Andy,
  On page 8 of section 1.2, you have written:
"
   Although it is possible to arbitrarily extend the <appinfo> element,
   this XSD mechanism is by definition non-standard, and 'off-the-shelf'
   XSD-based applications will not be able to do anything useful with
   information encoded in this manner.
"
  The stated flaws in XSD such as lack of conditional presence test for referential
integrity could be fixed with changes to the XSD language by creating new elements
that are test-only or such. Has there been effort in seeking such a solution from
W3C forum so far?  Reason being an attempt to create a modeling language that is
compliant with both SMIv2 and XSD seems to be an overkill. 
  Please enlighten me if I have missed any concepts here. 
Thanks,
Kalahasti

I think the 'must' and 'when' clauses in the YANG language address
the needs of NETCONF very well in this area.  They leverage Xpath
in the simplest possible way.

I don't know about a NETCONF DML that is backwards-compatible
with SMIv2.  I think YANG can represent just about any SMIv2
data model.  The reverse is obviously never going to be true.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Network Configuration Working Group of the IETF.


	Title           : NETCONF Event Notifications
	Author(s)       : S. Chisholm, H. Trevino
	Filename        : draft-ietf-netconf-notification-11.txt
	Pages           : 46
	Date            : 2007-11-11

This document defines mechanisms that provide an asynchronous message
notification delivery service for the NETCONF protocol.  This is an
optional capability built on top of the base NETCONF definition.
This document defines the capabilities and operations necessary to
support this service.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-netconf-notification-11.txt

To remove yourself from the I-D Announcement list, send a message to
i-d-announce-request@ietf.org with the word unsubscribe in the body of 
the message.
You can also visit https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/I-D-announce
to change your subscription settings.

Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the 
username "anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After 
logging in, type "cd internet-drafts" and then
	"get draft-ietf-netconf-notification-11.txt".

A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in
http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html
or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt

Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.

Send a message to:
	mailserv@ietf.org.
In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-netconf-notification-11.txt".

NOTE:   The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.

Hi,

The new Notifications draft is out:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-netconf-notification-11.txt

Could the people who made comments on -10 check that their bugs/issues
were properly addressed?

Unless there are no objections, the 1 hour NETCONF meeting in Vancouver
dedicated to Notification issues will be canceled, because we are done. (!)

Many thanks to Sharon and Hector for all their hard work,
and to all the people who reviewed and improved it along the way.


thanks,
Andy

I think that folks in the OPS Area and NECONF may want to have a look at
this proposal and comment if necessary.

Dan

OK, I'll bite.

Why do you think that this might be of interest to NETCONF?  It looks quite
straightforward (apart from a few typos).  I note that there is now -12 which
has altered the substance of the XML and in doing so made it invalid (as has
already been pointed out).

Hi Tom,

The original call for comments was for draft-11, which was in IETF LC a
while ago. Right now draft-12 is in LC, and in case you have any
consistent comments you may want to forward them to the ietf list or to
the authors.=20

To answer your question besides the fact that cross-area reviews are a
good thing, I believe that it's useful for the NETCONF community to see
how other protocols are using XML for management operations in different
environments.=20

Dan

Not sure this is such a great example (for whatever it is meant to
be an example). Let me quote from the abstract:

   [...] New implementations are discouraged from using the described
   method described except for backward compatibility purposes. [...]

I understand the problem here does not seem to be the XML fragment but
the usage of the signaling path - but then I am again not sure what
particular NETCONF lesson I am supposed to learn from this.

And since you specifically point to this document (and not at other
IDs that contain XML fragments where they sometimes also talk about
configuration), I am seriously concerned that people looking at
examples of the following instance XML document complexity

   <media_control>
      <vc_primitive>
       <to_encoder>
         <picture_fast_update/>
       </to_encoder>
     </vc_primitive>
   </media_control>

(yes that is all there is!) may draw wrong conclusions. My
understanding is that NETCONF is intended to deal with things as
complex as whole router configurations, different data stores, locking
semantics, commit mechanisms, failure handling mechanisms, validation
features, ... and from that perspective, I guess I should not have
looked at this document (and clearly not spent time writing this
email).

Dear all,


I have submitted a new I-D about the NETCONF Schema advertisement
requirement taken into the updated netconf WG charter.

> Filename:	   draft-okita-netconf-advertisement
> Title:	   NETCONF Configuration Interface Advertisement with WSDL and XSD

I'd like to make the requirement and available solutions clear
by this I-D before we discuss a particular solution.


In the schema-query-00 draft, a new NETCONF operation is proposed
to take Schema location and access method for the Schema on
a NETCONF device. IMO, the requirement for this solution is
"NMS developers can know Schema location and access method to the Schema"

For this requirement, we can take up following several solutions.

- fixed access method and URL    (this I-D)
- URL described in user's guide
- inband dynamic retrieval       (schema-query-00)
- UDDI                           (broker model in Web-Service)

We should compare the pros/cons of these solutinos.
I'd like to discuss this point in Vancouver.


Regards,

Hideki Okita

I heard that the new NETCONF charter was approved by the IESG on 11/15.
(official announcements are a little slow to come out at the moment,
due to the secretariat transition)

Andy and myself are stepping down as chairs with the conclusion of the
old charter.  Pending the appointment of new chairs, I'll chair the
meeting in Vancouver.  This is the DRAFT meeting agenda - sorry for
the late submission! Please send any change suggestions to the NETCONF
list, CC'ing the NGO list if you wish.

Hi Tom,

The original call for comments was for draft-11, which was in IETF LC a
while ago. Right now draft-12 is in LC, and in case you have any
consistent comments you may want to forward them to the ietf list or to
the authors.

To answer your question besides the fact that cross-area reviews are a
good thing, I believe that it's useful for the NETCONF community to see
how other protocols are using XML for management operations in different
environments.

Dan

Dan,

Understand.  I do now keep an eye on XML arising from other working groups but
did not see this one as particularly insightful.  I do see the simple ones - eg
draft-ietf-simple-xml-patch-ops-03 - and ippm - eg
draft-ietf-ippm-storetraceroutes-05 with its definition of  inetAddressType:-) -
as more thought provoking

Tom Petch

Hi

It would be good to reserve the timeslot and the room for an informal
meeting. Now that the protocol extensions and the content specification
discussions seem to have homes, what I think would be interesting is to
try to identify a working group interesting in being a guinea pig for
defining some NETCONF content for their work. This session could work
out the plan to make that happen.

Either that or for more detailed discussion of the items in the updated
NETCONF charter.

Sharon

Another thought is to come up with a list of the five biggest
impediments to NETCONF's complete domination of the configuration
space.  Do we know the answers to questions like:

- Why aren't/won't device folks shipping netconf implementations?
- Why aren't/won't application writers moving to NETCONF?
- Why isn't NETCONF becoming the answer to configuration problems?
- What's stopping it?
- Where's the chicken?
- What's the egg?
- What's the key to moving forward from here?
- Where should we be concentrating our (precious and few) resources?
- Will any of the new charter items be on this list?

Thanks,
 Phil

Phil,
  As an implementor, I can think of one obstacle I face with movement of MIBs from
use with SNMP to Netconf protocol:
-- Separation of configuration and state data.
-- Non-definition of a state datastore.
-- Difficulty in converting existing MIB stata data into Netconf state data. 

  My 2 cents.
Kalahasti

My hope is that the YANG work will address these points.  Juergen
Schoenwaelder has a backend to libsmi that emits YANG for MIBs,
which goes a long way toward helping carry existing MIB data in
NETCONF.  Have you had a chance to read the YANG draft?
It's available at:

   http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-bjorklund-netconf-yang-00.txt

Thanks,
 Phil

I think that such a discussion would be very useful in getting the  
word out about NETCONF and helping people understand how it could be  
used.

There has, for example, been some discussion in the dnsop WG about  
developing a protocol for configuring and controlling nameservers (http://tools.ietf.org/wg/dnsop/minutes?item=minutes69.html 
) and I am one of the authors of a draft (http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-arends-nscp-00.txt 
) that suggests using NETCONF.

The biggest issue for me in choosing NETCONF was and is to be sure I  
am using NETCONF appropriately and that it really is the correct  
solution to my problem. I am currently looking at such things as, what  
would be an appropriate data model, how to correctly use capabilities  
and how to engineer things that are not strictly configuration, such  
as control commands, monitoring and statistics gathering.

Thanks,
John

Description of Working Group: 
Wes Hardaker is Technical Advisor for Security Matters 

Configuration of networks of devices has become a critical requirement 
for operators in today's highly interoperable networks. Operators from 
large to small have developed their own mechanisms or used vendor 
specific mechanisms to transfer configuration data to and from a device, 
and for examining device state information which may impact the 
configuration. Each of these mechanisms may be different in various 
aspects, such as session establishment, user authentication, 
configuration data exchange, and error responses. 

The NETCONF Working Group is chartered to produce a protocol suitable 
for network configuration, with the following characteristics: 

- Provides retrieval mechanisms which can differentiate between 
configuration data and non-configuration data 
- Is extensible enough that vendors will provide access to all 
configuration data on the device using a single protocol 
- Has a programmatic interface (avoids screen scraping and 
formatting-related changes between releases) 
- Uses a textual data representation, that can be easily manipulated 
using non-specialized text manipulation tools. 
- Supports integration with existing user authentication methods 
- Supports integration with existing configuration database systems 
- Supports network wide configuration transactions (with features such 
as locking and rollback capability) 
- Is as transport-independent as possible 
- Provides the following support for asynchronous notifications: 
- Specify the <hello> message (capability exchange) details to support 
notifications. 
- Specify the application mapping details to support notifications. 
- Specify the protocol syntax and semantics of a notification message. 
- Specify or select a notification content information model. 
- Specify a mechanism for controlling the delivery (turn on/off) of 
notifications during a session. 
- Specify a mechanism for selectively receiving a configurable subset of 
all possible notification types. 

The NETCONF protocol will use XML for data encoding purposes, because 
XML is a widely deployed standard which is supported by a large number 
of applications. XML also supports hierarchical data structures. 

The NETCONF protocol should be independent of the data definition 
language and data models used to describe configuration and state data. 

However, the authorization model used in the protocol is dependent on 
the data model. Although these issues must be fully addressed to develop 
standard data models, only a small part of this work will be initially 
addressed. This group will specify requirements for standard data models 
in order to fully support the NETCONF protocol, such as: 

- identification of principals, such as user names or distinguished 
names 
- mechanism to distinguish configuration from non-configuration data 
- XML namespace conventions 
- XML usage guidelines 

It should be possible to transport the NETCONF protocol using several 
different protocols. The group will select at least one suitable 
transport mechanism, and define a mapping for the selected protocol(s). 

The initial work (has completed) and was restricted to the following 
items: 

- NETCONF Protocol Specification, which defines the operational model, 
protocol operations, transaction model, data model requirements, 
security requirements, and transport layer requirements. 

- NETCONF over SSH Specification: Implementation Mandatory; NETCONF over
BEEP Specification: Implementation Optional; NETCONF over SOAP 
Specification: Implementation Optional; These documents define how the 
NETCONF protocol is used with each transport protocol selected by the 
working group, and how it meets the security and transport layer 
requirements of the NETCONF Protocol Specification. 

Additional Notification work (as described above) will now be addressed 
since the initial work has been completed. 

An individual submission Internet Draft has been proposed to the WG as 
the starting point for the Notification work. The WG shall adopt the 
document identified as 'draft-chisholm-NETCONF-event-01.txt' as the 
starting point for this work. 

A second phase of incremental development of NETCONF will include the 
following items: 

1. Fine-grain locking: The base NETCONF protocol only provides a lock 
for the entire configuration datastore, which is not deemed to meet 
important operational and security requirements. The NETCONF working 
group will produce a standards-track RFC specifying a mechanism for 
fine-grain locking of the NETCONF configuration datastore. 

(The initial draft will be based on 
draft-lengyel-ngo-partial-lock-00.txt barring additional contributions 
from the community.) 

2. NETCONF monitoring: It is considered best practice for IETF working 
groups to include management of their protocols within the scope of the 
solution they are providing. NETCONF does not provide this capability. 
The NETCONF working group will produce a standards-track RFC with 
mechanisms allowing NETCONF itself to be used to monitor some aspects of 
NETCONF operation. 

(The initial draft will be based on 
draft-chisholm-netconf-monitoring-00.txt barring additional 
contributions from the community.) 

3. Schema advertisement: Currently the NETCONF protocol is able to 
advertise which protocol features are supported on a particular 
netconf-capable device. However, there is currently no way to discover 
which XML Schema are supported on the device. The NETCONF working group 
will produce a standards-track RFC with mechanisms making this discovery 
possible. 

This item may be merged with "NETCONF monitoring" into a single 
document. 

(The initial draft will be based on 
draft-scott-netconf-schema-query-00.txt barring additional contributions 
from the community.) 

4. NETCONF over TLS - based on implementation experience there is a need
for a standards track document to define NETCONF over TLS as an optional 
transport for NETCONF 

(The initial draft will be based on 
draft-badra-tls-netconf-04.txt barring additional contributions from the 
community.) 


The following are currently not considered in scope for re-chartering at 
this time, but may be candidates for work when there is community 
consensus to take them on. Individual submissions are being encouraged. 

o Access Control requirements 
o General improvements to the base protocol o NETCONF access to 
SMI-based MIB data o The Bill Fenner problem: Address real or perceived 
issue that "giving SSH for NETCONF gives full SSH access to the box"

I have read your draft and I do believe (and hope!) that NETCONF is
a good solution to this problem.

In your draft you also listed:

  Be extensible to allow implementors to extend to cover new objects
  and methods.

Maybe not suprising, but these are exactly the problems that YANG is
designed to help you with.

To be more specific, with YANG, you can write a standard data model
with the the (most) common configuration parameters.  Vendors can then
augment this standard data model with vendor-specific config params.

As an example (NOTE: I don't know what parameters actually would make
sense, this is just an example):

  container server {
      container panorama {
          list view {
              key view-name;
              leaf-list match-client { type inet:ip-prefix; }
              leaf recursion         { type boolean; }
              ...
          }
      }
  }
 
Then vendor X can add its own proprietary stuff:

   augment /dns:server/dns:panorama/dns:view {
       leaf funky-cache-option { ... }
       ...
   }

And in the NETCONF XML you might see:

   <server>
     <panorama>
       <view>
         <view-name>mybiew</view-name>
         <match-client>192.168.23.0/24</match-client>
         <match-client>172.16.30.0/16</match-client>
         <recursion>true</recursion>
         <x:funky-cache-option>magic</x:funky-cache-option>
       </view>
     </panorama>
   </server>

The same goes for commands (rpcs).  You can define standard rpc, and
vendors can e.g. add new rpcs, or augment the standard rpcs.

OK, so let's go ahead like this: As I suggested, we cancel the short
NETCONF slot (TUESDAY, December 4, 2007 1850-1950), and try to keep
the room for informal discussions.

IPFIX seems to be a good candidate, because they have development of
"an XML-based configuration data model that can be used for
configuring IPFIX devices and for storing, modifying and managing
IPFIX configurations parameter sets" on their brand-new charter, which
also notes that "This work will be performed in close collaboration
with the NETCONF WG".

IPFIX meets on Tuesday 1300-1500, and I'll be chairing the meeting
(since the real IPFIX chairs won't be in Vancouver), so I can invite
interested participants to our informal meeting on Tuesday evening.

OK?

I hope two hours are sufficient for that.

Dear NETCONF WG participants,

here are a few things I'd like you to consider before the NETCONF WG
meeting in Vancouver (Wednesday 1300-1500, Salon 1):

1.) We need a notetaker and Jabber scribe (ideally two different
    persons).  If you are willing to volunteer, send me mail.  Thanks!

2.) At the meeting next Wednesday, we'll go through the new charter
    items and discuss whether individual Internet-Drafts should be
    adopted by the Working Group.  Therefore it is especially
    important that you have READ THE DRAFTS.  Pointers can be found in
    the agenda on the IETF tools site:

    http://tools.ietf.org/wg/netconf/agenda

3.) Remember that Andy and I are stepping back at chairs of the WG;
    our ADs have issued a call for volunteers.  This call is still
    open.  In particular, the ADs would like to hear from candidates
    with an operator background.  If interested, please contact Dan
    Romascanu <dromasca@avaya.com> and Ron Bonica <rbonica@juniper.net>.

Have a good trip, and see you in Vancouver or on the 'net,
-- 
Simon.

Hello Simon, Sharon,
We also have John Dickinson from DNSOP. He seems a very promising candidate.

I have read your draft and I do believe (and hope!) that NETCONF is
a good solution to this problem.

In your draft you also listed:

   Be extensible to allow implementors to extend to cover new objects
   and methods.

Maybe not suprising, but these are exactly the problems that YANG is
designed to help you with.

To be more specific, with YANG, you can write a standard data model
with the the (most) common configuration parameters.  Vendors can then
augment this standard data model with vendor-specific config params.

As an example (NOTE: I don't know what parameters actually would make
sense, this is just an example):

   container server {
       container panorama {
           list view {
               key view-name;
               leaf-list match-client { type inet:ip-prefix; }
               leaf recursion         { type boolean; }
               ...
           }
       }
   }

Then vendor X can add its own proprietary stuff:

    augment /dns:server/dns:panorama/dns:view {
        leaf funky-cache-option { ... }
        ...
    }

And in the NETCONF XML you might see:

    <server>
      <panorama>
        <view>
          <view-name>mybiew</view-name>
          <match-client>192.168.23.0/24</match-client>
          <match-client>172.16.30.0/16</match-client>
          <recursion>true</recursion>
          <x:funky-cache-option>magic</x:funky-cache-option>
        </view>
      </panorama>
    </server>

The same goes for commands (rpcs).  You can define standard rpc, and
vendors can e.g. add new rpcs, or augment the standard rpcs.

Description of Working Group: 
Wes Hardaker is Technical Advisor for Security Matters 

Configuration of networks of devices has become a critical requirement 
for operators in today's highly interoperable networks. Operators from 
large to small have developed their own mechanisms or used vendor 
specific mechanisms to transfer configuration data to and from a device, 
and for examining device state information which may impact the 
configuration. Each of these mechanisms may be different in various 
aspects, such as session establishment, user authentication, 
configuration data exchange, and error responses. 

The NETCONF Working Group is chartered to produce a protocol suitable 
for network configuration, with the following characteristics: 

- Provides retrieval mechanisms which can differentiate between 
configuration data and non-configuration data 
- Is extensible enough that vendors will provide access to all 
configuration data on the device using a single protocol 
- Has a programmatic interface (avoids screen scraping and 
formatting-related changes between releases) 
- Uses a textual data representation, that can be easily manipulated 
using non-specialized text manipulation tools. 
- Supports integration with existing user authentication methods 
- Supports integration with existing configuration database systems 
- Supports network wide configuration transactions (with features such 
as locking and rollback capability) 
- Is as transport-independent as possible 
- Provides the following support for asynchronous notifications: 
- Specify the <hello> message (capability exchange) details to support 
notifications. 
- Specify the application mapping details to support notifications. 
- Specify the protocol syntax and semantics of a notification message. 
- Specify or select a notification content information model. 
- Specify a mechanism for controlling the delivery (turn on/off) of 
notifications during a session. 
- Specify a mechanism for selectively receiving a configurable subset of 
all possible notification types. 

The NETCONF protocol will use XML for data encoding purposes, because 
XML is a widely deployed standard which is supported by a large number 
of applications. XML also supports hierarchical data structures. 

The NETCONF protocol should be independent of the data definition 
language and data models used to describe configuration and state data. 

However, the authorization model used in the protocol is dependent on 
the data model. Although these issues must be fully addressed to develop 
standard data models, only a small part of this work will be initially 
addressed. This group will specify requirements for standard data models 
in order to fully support the NETCONF protocol, such as: 

- identification of principals, such as user names or distinguished 
names 
- mechanism to distinguish configuration from non-configuration data 
- XML namespace conventions 
- XML usage guidelines 

It should be possible to transport the NETCONF protocol using several 
different protocols. The group will select at least one suitable 
transport mechanism, and define a mapping for the selected protocol(s). 

The initial work (has completed) and was restricted to the following 
items: 

- NETCONF Protocol Specification, which defines the operational model, 
protocol operations, transaction model, data model requirements, 
security requirements, and transport layer requirements. 

- NETCONF over SSH Specification: Implementation Mandatory; NETCONF over
BEEP Specification: Implementation Optional; NETCONF over SOAP 
Specification: Implementation Optional; These documents define how the 
NETCONF protocol is used with each transport protocol selected by the 
working group, and how it meets the security and transport layer 
requirements of the NETCONF Protocol Specification. 

Additional Notification work (as described above) will now be addressed 
since the initial work has been completed. 

An individual submission Internet Draft has been proposed to the WG as 
the starting point for the Notification work. The WG shall adopt the 
document identified as 'draft-chisholm-NETCONF-event-01.txt' as the 
starting point for this work. 

A second phase of incremental development of NETCONF will include the 
following items: 

1. Fine-grain locking: The base NETCONF protocol only provides a lock 
for the entire configuration datastore, which is not deemed to meet 
important operational and security requirements. The NETCONF working 
group will produce a standards-track RFC specifying a mechanism for 
fine-grain locking of the NETCONF configuration datastore. 

(The initial draft will be based on 
draft-lengyel-ngo-partial-lock-00.txt barring additional contributions 
from the community.) 

2. NETCONF monitoring: It is considered best practice for IETF working 
groups to include management of their protocols within the scope of the 
solution they are providing. NETCONF does not provide this capability. 
The NETCONF working group will produce a standards-track RFC with 
mechanisms allowing NETCONF itself to be used to monitor some aspects of 
NETCONF operation. 

(The initial draft will be based on 
draft-chisholm-netconf-monitoring-00.txt barring additional 
contributions from the community.) 

3. Schema advertisement: Currently the NETCONF protocol is able to 
advertise which protocol features are supported on a particular 
netconf-capable device. However, there is currently no way to discover 
which XML Schema are supported on the device. The NETCONF working group 
will produce a standards-track RFC with mechanisms making this discovery 
possible. 

This item may be merged with "NETCONF monitoring" into a single 
document. 

(The initial draft will be based on 
draft-scott-netconf-schema-query-00.txt barring additional contributions 
from the community.) 

4. NETCONF over TLS - based on implementation experience there is a need
for a standards track document to define NETCONF over TLS as an optional 
transport for NETCONF 

(The initial draft will be based on 
draft-badra-tls-netconf-04.txt barring additional contributions from the 
community.) 


The following are currently not considered in scope for re-chartering at 
this time, but may be candidates for work when there is community 
consensus to take them on. Individual submissions are being encouraged. 

o Access Control requirements 
o General improvements to the base protocol o NETCONF access to 
SMI-based MIB data o The Bill Fenner problem: Address real or perceived 
issue that "giving SSH for NETCONF gives full SSH access to the box"
