Outline • Netmod Coordinates • Netconf Layers • Status • Scope • Netconf Family of Specifications • Next Steps
Netmod Coordinates • Website • http://standards.nortelnetworks.com/netconf/ • Instructions on how to join mailing list, archive, documents of interest • Mailing list • separate list for data modeling specific discussions
Netconf Layers +-------------+ +-----------------------------+ (4) | Content | | Configuration data | +-------------+ +-----------------------------+ | | +-------------+ +-----------------------------+ (3) | Operations | | <get-config>, <edit-config> | +-------------+ +-----------------------------+ | | +-------------+ +-----------------------------+ (2) | RPC | | <rpc>, <rpc-reply> | +-------------+ +-----------------------------+ | | +-------------+ +-----------------------------+ (1) | Application | | BEEP, SSH, SSL, console | | Protocol | | | +-------------+ +-----------------------------+ Netmod
Status • BOF at IETF 60 • Given guidance to reduce scope ... • Several Internet Drafts • Consolidated input into ‘Framework for Netconf Data Models’ • http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-chisholm-netconf-model-01.txt
Scope • Select a single existing data definition language for netconf content with emphasis placed on existing well-established solutions. • Identify requirements and best practice for defining • Access control • Compliance • Versioning & backwards compatibility • naming • How to define relationships between elements • Design pattern for defining status, statistics and configuration information • Notifications • Error Handling • Element Descriptions • Proof of concept data model definition
Netconf Family of Specifications Netconf 1.0 (protocol, transports) Netmod Framework Netconf Protocol Extensions IETF 62
Next Steps • Netmod editing session today at 1pm, meeting at the bulletin board • Because • There doesn’t appear sufficient work for two working groups. • Some problems such as security (access controll, etc) and Notifications will span both protocol and data model specification • Propose rather than creating a netmod working group, we add it to the netconf charter
