Introduction There is a need for standard mechanism to allow the specification and implementation of the transactions part of network tests. The mechanism should allow the control and monitoring of the data plane traffic in a transactional way. This document defines YANG modules for test traffic generator, analyzer and internal interface loopback. 1.1. Terminology The keywords "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]. 1.1.1.

Tree Diagram For a reference to the annotations used in tree diagrams included in this draft, please see YANG Tree Diagrams [RFC8340]. 1.2. Problem Statement Network interconnect tests require active network elements part of the tested network that generate test traffic and network elements that analyze the test traffic at one or more points of its path. A network interconnect tester is a device that can either generate test traffic, analyze test traffic or both. Here is a figure borrowed from [RFC2544] representing the horseshoe test setup topology consisting of a single tester and a single DUT connected in a network interconnect loop. +------------+ | | +------------| tester |<-------------+ | | | | | +------------+ | | | | +------------+ | | | | | +----------->| DUT |--------------+ | | +------------+ This document attempts to address the problem of defining YANG model of a network interconnect tester that can be used for development of vendor independent network interconnect tests and utilize the advantages of transactional management using standard protocols like NETCONF. 1.3. Solution The proposed model splits the design into 3 modules - 1) Traffic Generator module (TG), 2) Traffic Analyzer module (TA). The modules are implemented as augmentations of the ietf-interfaces module adding configuration and state data that models the functionality of a tester. The TA and TG modules concept is illustrated with the following diagram of a tester with two interfaces (named e0 and e1) conected in a loop with single DUT: Vassilev Expires March 7, 2020 [Page 3] Internet-Draft NETWORK-INTERCONNECT-TESTER-01 September 2019 +----------------+ e0.egress | | e1.ingress +------------| TG tester TA |<-------------+ | | | | | +----------------+ | | | | +------------+ | | | | | +------------->| DUT |----------------+ | | +------------+ 2. Using the network interconnect tester model Basic example of how the model can be used in transactional network test API to control the testers part of a network and report countrer statistics and timing measurement data is presented in Appendix A. One of the examples demonstrates the use of the [RFC2544] defined testframe packet. 3.

Generating RFC2544 Testframes In sec. C.2.6.4 Test Frames a detailed format is specified. The frame-data leaf allows full control over the generated frames payload.
