Module iana-msd-types defines the identities for Maximum SID Depth (MSD) Types as per the "IGP MSD-Types" IANA registry [IANA-IGP-MSD-Types], which includes MSD types for both the MPLS and SRv6 data planes. This document also defines module ietf-mpls-msd augmenting the IETF MPLS YANG data model [RFC8960], which augments the routing RIB data model [RFC8349] to provide operational state for various MSDs [RFC8662] for the MPLS data plane. The module augments the base MPLS model with a list of various types of Node MSDs as well as various types of Link MSDs. The YANG modules in this document conform to the Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA) [RFC8342]. 2. Design of the Model 2.1. IANA MSD Types Module IANA has created a registry titled "IGP MSD-Types" under the "Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) Parameters" registry group to identify MSD-Types. Module iana-msd-types is an IANA-maintained module, which defines the identities for the MSD-Types as in the IANA "IGP MSD-Types" registry. This module references [RFC8476], [RFC8491], [RFC8662], [RFC8664], [RFC8814], [RFC9088], and [RFC9352]. On top of the base identity "msd-base", identity "msd-base-mpls" is defined to serve as the base for MSD types for the MPLS data plane, and identity "msd-base-srh" is defined to serve as the base for MSD types for the Segment Routing Header (SRH) in the IPv6 data plane. This module is maintained by IANA and will be updated if and when there is any change to the registry. 2.2. IETF MPLS MSD Module Module ietf-mpls-msd augments the base MPLS model [RFC8960], and it provides support of different types of MSDs in the MPLS data plane. As defined in [RFC8491], a Link MSD is the number of SIDs supported by a node's link, while a Node MSD is the smallest MSD supported by the node across all its links. The module defines lists of MSDs and their MSD Types for a node and its links. Please note that these are read-only data nodes exposing a node's hardware capability. 3.

Security Considerations The YANG modules specified in this document define 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 pre-configured subset of all available NETCONF or RESTCONF protocol operations and content. Some of the readable data nodes in the ietf-mpls-msd 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: /rt:routing/mpls:mpls/msd/node-msds /rt:routing/mpls:mpls/msd/link-msds Exposure of the node's maximum SID depth may be useful in mounting a Denial-of-Service (DoS) attack by sending packets to the node that the router can't process. The iana-msd-types YANG module defines a set of identities that mirror the IANA "IGP MSD-Types" registry. These identities are intended to be reused by other YANG modules. The module by itself does not expose any data nodes that are writable or readable. As such, there are no additional security issues related to this YANG module that need to be considered. 6. IANA Considerations 6.1. Registering YANG Modules This document registers URIs in the IETF XML registry as defined in [RFC3688]. The following registrations have been made: URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:iana-msd-types Registrant Contact: The IESG. XML: N/A; the requested URI is an XML namespace. URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-mpls-msd Registrant Contact: The IESG. XML: N/A; the requested URI is an XML namespace. This document registers the YANG modules in the "YANG Module Names" registry as defined in [RFC6020]. Name: iana-msd-types Maintained by IANA? Y Namespace: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:iana-msd-types Prefix: iana-msd-types Reference: RFC 9702 Name: ietf-mpls-msd Maintained by IANA? N Namespace: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-mpls-msd Prefix: mpls-msd Reference: RFC 9702 6.2. IANA MSD-Types Module This document defines the initial version of the IANA-maintained "iana-msd-types" YANG module (Section 4.1). The latest version of the YANG module is available from the "YANG Parameters" registry [IANA-YANG-Parameters]. IANA has added this note to the "YANG Module Names" registry: | New values must not be directly added to the "iana-msd-types" YANG | module. They must instead be added to the "IGP MSD-Types" | registry in the "Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) Parameters" | registry group [IANA-IGP-MSD-Types]. The identities defined in the iana-msd-types YANG module are organized hierarchically based on the data plane. In this initial version, only MPLS and SRv6 data planes are supported, hence "msd- base-mpls" and "msd-base-srh" are defined. When a new data plane is added to the "IGP MSD-Types" registry, a new "identity" statement should be added to the "iana-msd-types" YANG module. The name of the "identity" is the prefix "msd-base-" plus a lowercase version of the data plane name. The identity statement should have the following sub-statements defined: "base": Contains 'msd-base'. "description": Replicates the description from "msd-base-mpls" and changes the corresponding data plane name. "reference": Replicates the reference from the registry with the title of the document added. When an MSD type is added to the "IGP MSD-Types" registry, a new "identity" statement must be added to the "iana-msd-types" YANG module. The name of the "identity" is a lowercase version of the type name provided in the name with the space replaced with "-". The "identity" statement should have the following sub-statements defined: "base": Contains the base name of the corresponding data plane. "description": Replicates the name from the registry. "reference": Replicates the reference from the registry with the title of the document added. Unassigned or reserved values are not present in the module. When the "iana-msd-types" YANG module is updated, a new "revision" statement with a unique revision date must be added in front of the existing revision statements. IANA has added a "Data Plane" column to the "IGP MSD-Types" registry. This will unequivocally identify the base identity for MSD-Types. The values for the "Data Plane" column for existing MSD-Types are: +=========+==========================+============+===========+ | Value | Name | Data Plane | Reference | +=========+==========================+============+===========+ | 0 | Reserved | | [RFC8491] | +---------+--------------------------+------------+-----------+ | 1 | Base MPLS Imposition MSD | MPLS | [RFC8491] | +---------+--------------------------+------------+-----------+ | 2 | ERLD-MSD | MPLS | [RFC9088] | +---------+--------------------------+------------+-----------+ | 3-40 | Unassigned | | | +---------+--------------------------+------------+-----------+ | 41 | SRH Max SL | SRv6 | [RFC9352] | +---------+--------------------------+------------+-----------+ | 42 | SRH Max End Pop | SRv6 | [RFC9352] | +---------+--------------------------+------------+-----------+ | 43 | Unassigned | | | +---------+--------------------------+------------+-----------+ | 44 | SRH Max H.encaps | SRv6 | [RFC9352] | +---------+--------------------------+------------+-----------+ | 45 | SRH Max End | SRv6 | [RFC9352] | +---------+--------------------------+------------+-----------+ | 46-250 | Unassigned | | | +---------+--------------------------+------------+-----------+ | 251-254 | Experimental Use | | [RFC8491] | +---------+--------------------------+------------+-----------+ | 255 | Reserved | | [RFC8491] | +---------+--------------------------+------------+-----------+ Table 1 IANA has added this note to [IANA-IGP-MSD-Types]: | When this registry is modified, the YANG module "iana-msd-types" | must be updated as defined in RFC 9702. 7.
