Introduction This document defines a method to reset a server to its factory- default content. The reset operation may be used e.g. during initial zero-touch configuration [RFC8572] or when the existing configuration has major errors, so re-starting the configuration process from scratch is the best option. When resetting a datastore all previous configuration settings will be lost and replaced by the factory- default content. A new factory-reset RPC is defined. Several methods of documenting the factory-default content are specified. Wu, et al. Expires April 28, 2020 [Page 2] Internet-Draft Factory Default Setting October 2019 Optionally a new "factory-default" read-only datastore is defined, that contains the data that will be copied over to all read-write configuration datastores at reset. This datastore can also be used in or operations. NETCONF defines the operation that allows resetting the datastore and the operation that copies the content of the datastore into the datastore. However it is not possible to reset the running datastore, to reset the candidate datastore without changing the running datastore or to reset any dynamic datastore. A RESTCONF server MAY implement the above NETCONF operations, but that would still not allow it to reset the running configuration. 1.1. Terminology 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 BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here. The following terms are defined in [RFC8342] and are not redefined here: o server o startup configuration datastore o candiate configuration datastore o running configuration datastore o intended configuration datastore o operational state datastore The following terms are defined in this document as follows: o factory-default datastore: A read-only datastore holding a preconfigured minimal initial configuration that can be used to initialize the configuration of a server. The content of the datastore is usually static, but MAY depend on external factors like available HW. Wu, et al. Expires April 28, 2020 [Page 3] Internet-Draft Factory Default Setting October 2019 2. Factory-Reset RPC A new "factory-reset" RPC is introduced. Upon receiveing the RPC the server resets the content of all read-write configuration datastores (e.g., and ) to its factory-default content. Read- only datastores receive their content from other datastores (e.g. gets its content from ). Factory-default content SHALL be specified by one of the following means in order of precedence 1. For the , and datastores as the content of the datastore, if it exists 2. YANG Instance Data [I-D.ietf-netmod-yang-instance-file-format] 3. In some implementation specific manner 4. For dynamic datastores unless otherwise specified the factory- default content is empty. In addition,the "factory-reset" RPC might also be used to trigger some other restoring and resetting tasks such as files cleanup, restarting the node or some of the SW processes, or setting some security data/passwords to the default value, removing logs, removing any temporary data (from datastore or elsewhere) etc. When and why these tasks are triggered is not the scope of this document. 3. Factory-Default Datastore Following guidelines for defining Datastores in the appendix A of [RFC8342], this document introduces a new datastore resource named 'Factory-Default' that represents a preconfigured minimal initial configuration that can be used to initialize the configuration of a server. o Name: "factory-default" o YANG modules: all o YANG nodes: all "config true" data nodes o Management operations: The content of the datastore is set by the server in an implementation dependent manner. The content can not be changed by management operations via NETCONF, RESTCONF,the CLI etc. unless specialized, dedicated operations are provided. The contents of the datastore can be read using NETCONF, RESTCONF and operations. The operation can be used to copy the factory default content to a set of read-write configuration datastores and then the content of these datastores is propagated automatically to any other read only datastores, e.g., and . o Origin: This document does not define a new origin identity as it does not interact with datastore. o Protocols: RESTCONF, NETCONF and other management protocol. o Defining YANG module: "ietf-factory-default". The datastore content is usually defined by the device vendor. It is usually static, but MAY change e.g., depending on external factors like HW available or during device upgrade. On devices that support non-volatile storage, the contents of MUST persist across restarts. 4.

IANA Considerations This document registers one URI in the IETF XML Registry [RFC3688]. The following registration has been made: URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-factory-default Registrant Contact: The IESG. XML: N/A, the requested URI is an XML namespace. This document registers one YANG module in the YANG Module Names Registry [RFC6020]. The following registration has been made: name: ietf-factory-default namespace: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-factory-default prefix: fd RFC: xxxx 6. Security Considerations The YANG module defined in this document extends the base operations for NETCONF [RFC6241] and 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 RPC operation may be considered sensitive in some network enviroments,e.g., remote access to reset the device or overwrite security sensitive information in one of the other datastores, e.g. running, therefore it is important to restrict access to this RPC using the standard access control methods. [RFC8341] Wu, et al. Expires April 28, 2020 [Page 7] Internet-Draft Factory Default Setting October 2019 The NETCONF Access Control Model (NACM) [RFC8341] provides the means to restrict access for particular users to a pre-configured subset of all available protocol operations and content. 7.
