Introduction This document defines a YANG data model for the Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM) & Management of Application- Layer Traffic Optimization (ALTO) Protocol. The basic purpose of this YANG data model is discussed in Section 16 of [RFC7285]. The operator of an ALTO server can use this data model to: * set up the ALTO server, * configure server discovery, * create, update and remove ALTO information resources, * manage the access control of each ALTO information resource, * collect statistical data of the ALTO server. Zhang, et al. Expires 1 December 2023 [Page 3] Internet-Draft ALTO O&M YANG May 2023 The application provider can also use this data model to configure ALTO clients to communicate with known ALTO servers. This document only focuses on the common and implementation-agnostic data model for purposes including deploying an ALTO server/client, operating and managing a running ALTO server/client, functionality/ capability configuration of ALTO services, and monitoring ALTO- related performance metrics. Any implementation-specific information is not in the scope of this document. Section 4.1 illustrates more details about what is and is not in the scope. Section 4.2 and Section 4.3 define more concrete requirements for the data model. The basic structure of this YANG data model is guided by Section 16 of [RFC7285] and [RFC7971]. Although the scope of the YANG data model in this document mainly focuses on the support of the base ALTO protocol [RFC7285] and the existing ALTO standard extensions (including [RFC8189], [RFC8895], [RFC8896], [RFC9240], [RFC9241], and [RFC9275]), future standard extensions (e.g., [I-D.ietf-alto-performance-metrics]) are also considered. The detailed design of the data model is illustrated in Section 5 and Section 6. Some examples of how to extend this data model for the specific ALTO server implementations are shown in Appendix A. 2. Requirements Language 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. When the words appear in lower case, they are to be interpreted with their natural language meanings. 3.

Zhang, et al. Expires 1 December 2023 [Page 8] Internet-Draft ALTO O&M YANG May 2023 4.3. Additional Requirements for Extensibility R8: As the ALTO protocol is extensible, the data model for ALTO O&M should allow for augmentation to support potential future extensions. 4.4. Overview of ALTO O&M Data Model for Reference ALTO Architecture Figure 1 shows a reference architecture for an ALTO server implementation. It indicates the major server components that an ALTO server usually needs to include and the YANG modules that these server components need to implement. The following server components need to implement ietf-alto.yang (Section 5): Server manager: It provides the functionality and configuration of the server-level management, including server listen stack setup, server discovery setup, logging system configuration, global meta data, and server-level security configuration. Information resource manager: It provides the operation and management for creating, updating, and removing ALTO information resources. Data source listener: An ALTO server may start multiple data source listener. Each data source listener defines a communication endpoint that can fetch the ALTO-related information from data sources. The information can be either raw network/computation information or pre-processed ALTO-level information. The following components need to implement ietf-alto-stats.yang (Section 6) to provide statistics information: Performance monitor: It collects ALTO-specific performance metrics during the ALTO server is running. Logging and fault manager: It collects runtime logs and failures generated by the ALTO server and the service of each ALTO information resource. The following components are also important for an ALTO server, although they are not in the scope of the data model defined in this document: Data broker: An ALTO server may implement a data broker to store Zhang, et al. Expires 1 December 2023 [Page 9] Internet-Draft ALTO O&M YANG May 2023 network/computation information collected from data sources or cache some preprocessed data. The service of the ALTO information resource can read them from the data broker to calculate ALTO responses and return to ALTO clients. Algorithm plugin: The service of each ALTO information resource needs to configure an algorithm to decide how to calculate the ALTO responses. The algorithm plugins implement those algorithms. User-specified YANG modules can be applied to different algorithm plugins by augmenting the data model defined in this document (Appendix A). Generally, the ALTO server components illustrated above have the following interactions with each other: * Both the server manager and information resource manager will report statistics data to the performance monitor and the logging and fault manager. * The algorithm plugins will register callbacks to the corresponding ALTO information resources upon configuration; Once an ALTO information resource is requested, the registered callback algorithm will be invoked. * A data source listener will fetch data from the configured data source using the corresponding data source API in either proactive mode (polling) or reactive mode (subscription/publication). * A data source listener will send the preprocessed data to a data broker. * An algorithm plugin may read data from an optional data broker to calculate the ALTO information resource.

Design of ALTO O&M Data Model 5.1. Overview of ALTO O&M Data Model The "ietf-alto" module defined in this document is designed to fit all the requirements listed in Section 4. As shown in Figure 2, the top-level container 'alto' in the "ietf- alto" module contains a single 'alto-server' and a list 'alto- client'. The list 'alto-client' defines a list of configurations for other applications to bootstrap an ALTO client. These data nodes can also be used by data sources and information resource creation algorithms that are configured by an ALTO server instance. The container 'alto-server' contains both configuration and operational data of an administrated ALTO server instance. Zhang, et al. Expires 1 December 2023 [Page 11] Internet-Draft ALTO O&M YANG May 2023 module: ietf-alto +--rw alto! +--rw alto-client* [client-id] {alto-client}? | ... +--rw alto-server {alto-server}? +... +--rw auth-client* [client-id] | ... +--rw role* [role-name] | +--rw role-name role-name | +--rw client* client-ref +--rw data-source* [source-id] | ... +--rw resource* [resource-id] ... Figure 2: IETF ALTO Tree Structure 5.2. Data Model for ALTO Client Operation and Management As shown in Figure 3, the 'alto-client' list contains a list of client-side configurations. Each 'alto-client' entry contains the following configurations: 'client-id': A unique identifier that can be referenced by other applications. 'server-discovery-client': A container that is used to configure how this ALTO client discovers an ALTO server. module: ietf-alto +--rw alto! +--rw alto-client* [client-id] {alto-client}? | +--rw client-id string | +--rw server-discovery-client | +---u alto-server-discovery-client ... Figure 3: IETF ALTO Client Subtree Structure 5.3. Data Model for Server-level Operation and Management The ALTO server instance contains a set of data nodes for server- level operation and management for ALTO that are shown in Figure 4. This structure satisfies R1 - R4 in Section 4.2. Zhang, et al.

Figure 4: IETF ALTO Server Level Subtree Structure 5.3.1. Data Model for ALTO Server Setup To satisfy R1 in Section 4.2, the ALTO server instance contains the basic data nodes for the server setup that are detailed in the following subsections. 5.3.1.1. ALTO Server Listen Stack The container 'listen' contains all the data nodes for the whole server listen stack across HTTP, TLS, and TCP layers (Figure 5). Zhang, et al. Expires 1 December 2023 [Page 13] Internet-Draft ALTO O&M YANG May 2023 grouping alto-server: +-- base-uri? inet:uri grouping alto-server-listen-stack: +-- (transport) +--:(http) {http-listen}? | +-- http | +-- tcp-server-parameters | | +---u tcp:tcp-server-grouping | +-- http-server-parameters | | +---u http:http-server-grouping | +-- alto-server-parameters | +---u alto-server +--:(https) +-- https +-- tcp-server-parameters | +---u tcp:tcp-server-grouping +-- tls-server-parameters | +---u tls:tls-server-grouping +-- http-server-parameters | +---u http:http-server-grouping +-- alto-server-parameters +---u alto-server Figure 5: IETF ALTO Server Groupings Structure 5.3.1.2. ALTO Server Discovery Setup In practice, for a large-scale network consisting of multiple administrative domains, the information about the network may be partitioned and distributed over multiple ALTO servers. That may require discovery and communication among different ALTO servers. The "ietf-alto" module provides the configuration for how an ALTO server can be discovered by another ALTO server or client on demand (Figure 6). However, it does not contain any configuration for the communication among ALTO servers because the related solution has not become a standard. Future documents may extend it to fully support multi-domain scenarios. grouping alto-server-discovery: +-- (server-discovery-manner)? +--:(reverse-dns) {xdom-disc}? +-- rdns-naptr-records +-- static-prefix* inet:ip-prefix +-- dynamic-prefix-source* data-source-ref Figure 6: IETF ALTO Server Discovery Grouping Structure Zhang, et al. Expires 1 December 2023 [Page 14] Internet-Draft ALTO O&M YANG May 2023 The 'server-discovery' node provides configuration for the discovery of ALTO servers using a variety of mechanisms. The initial version of the "ietf-alto" module only defines the 'reverse-dns' case that is used to configure DNS NAPTR records for ALTO server discovery as sugested by [RFC7286] and [RFC8686]. It configures a set of endpoints that can be served by this ALTO server. The node contains two leaf lists. The 'static' list contains a list of manually configured endpoints. The 'dynamic' list points to a list of data sources to retrieve the endpoints dynamically. As suggested by [RFC7286] and [RFC8686], the IP prefixes of the endpoints configured by both 'static' and 'dynamic' lists will be translated into DNS NAPTR resource records for server discovery. The 'server-discovery- manner' choice can be augmented by the future modules to support other mechanisms. 5.3.2. Data Model for Logging Management To satisfy R2 in Section 4.2, the ALTO server instance contains the the logging data nodes shown in Figure 7. The 'logging-system' data node provides configuration to select a logging system to capture log messages generated by an ALTO server. By default, 'syslog' is the only supported logging system. When selecting 'syslog', the related configuration is delegated to the configuration file of the syslog [RFC5424] server. grouping alto-logging-system: +-- (logging-system)? +--:(syslog) +-- syslog-params +-- config-file? inet:uri Figure 7: IETF ALTO Logging System Grouping Structure A specific server implementation can extend the 'logging-system' node to add other logging systems. 5.3.3. Data Model for ALTO-related Management To satisfy R3 in Section 4.2, the data model contains the following ALTO-related management information (Figure 4): * The 'cost-type' list is the registry for the cost types that can be used in the ALTO server. Zhang, et al. Expires 1 December 2023 [Page 15] Internet-Draft ALTO O&M YANG May 2023 * The 'meta' list contains the customized meta data of the ALTO server. It is populated into the meta field of the default Information Resource Directory (IRD). 5.3.4. Data Model for Security Management To satisfy R4 in Section 4.2, the data model leverages HTTP and TLS to provide basic security management for an ALTO server. All the related configurations are covered by the server listen stack. 5.4. Data Model for ALTO Server Configuration Management 5.4.1. Data Source Configuration Management To satisfy R5-1 in Section 4.2, the ALTO server instance contains a list of 'data-source' entries to subscribe the data sources from which ALTO information resources are derived (Section 16.2.4 of [RFC7285]). module: ietf-alto +--rw alto! ... +--rw alto-server {alto-server}? ... +--rw data-source* [source-id] | +--rw source-id source-id | +--rw source-type identityref | +--rw (update-policy) | | +--:(reactive) | | | +--rw (publish-mode)? | | | +--:(on-change) | | | | +--rw on-change empty | | | +--:(periodic) | | | +--rw feed-interval uint32 | | +--:(proactive) | | +--rw poll-interval uint32 | +--rw (source-params)? ... Figure 8: IETF ALTO Server Data Source Subtree Structure As shown in Figure 8, a 'data-source' list entry includes: * A unique 'source-id' for resource creation algorithms to reference. * The 'source-type' attribute to declare the type of the data source. Zhang, et al. Expires 1 December 2023 [Page 16] Internet-Draft ALTO O&M YANG May 2023 * The 'update-policy' to specify how to get the data update from the data source. * The 'source-params' to specify where and how to query the data. The update policy can be either reactive or proactive. For the reactive update, the ALTO server reactively waits for the data source to push updates. For the proactive update, the ALTO server proactively fetches the data source periodically. Two publish modes are available to support reactive updates: * If the 'on-change' attribute is present, the data source is expected to push the update as soon as the data source changes. * Otherwise, if the 'feed-interval' attribute is present, the data source is expected to push the updates periodically. The value of 'feed-interval' specifies the interval of pushing the data change updates in milliseconds. If 'feed-interval' is zero, the data source is expected to work in the 'on-change' mode. To use the proactive update, the 'poll-interval' attribute MUST be present. The value of 'poll-interval' specifies the interval of fetching the data in milliseconds. If 'poll-interval' is zero, the data source listener will not automatically fetch the data source periodically. In this case, a algorithm plugin can still call the data source listener to fetch the data at runtime. The 'data-source/source-params' node can be augmented for different types of data sources. This data model only includes common configuration parameters for an ALTO server to correctly interact with a data source. The implementation-specific parameters of any certain data source can be augmented in another module. An example is included in Appendix A.3. 5.4.2. ALTO Information Resources Configuration Management To satisfy R5-2 and R-3, the ALTO server instance contains a list of 'resource' entries (Figure 9). Each 'resource' entry contains the configurations of an ALTO information resource (See Section 8.1 of [RFC7285]). The operator of the ALTO server can use this model to create, update, and remove the ALTO information resources. Each 'resource' entry provides configurations defining how to create or update an ALTO information resource.

It may also include an 'accepted-role' node containing a list of 'role-name's that is used by role-based access control for this ALTO information resource. See Section 5.4.3 for details of information resource access control. For some 'resource-type', the 'resource' entry may also include a 'dependency' node containing the 'resource-id' of the dependent ALTO information resources (Section 9.1.5 of [RFC7285]). For each type of ALTO information resource, the 'resource' entry may also need type-specific parameters. These type-specific parameters include two categories: 1. One category of the type-specific parameters is common for the same type of ALTO information resource. They declare the Capabilities of the ALTO information resource (Section 9.1.3 of [RFC7285]). 2. The other category of the type-specific parameters is algorithm- specific. The developer of the ALTO server can implement their own creation algorithms and augment the 'algorithm' node to declare algorithm-specific input parameters. Except for the 'ird' resource, all the other types of 'resource' entries have an augmented 'algorithm' node. The augmented 'algorithm' node can reference data sources subscribed by the 'data- source' entries (See Section 5.4.1). An example of extending the 'algorithm' node for a specific type of 'resource' is included in Appendix A.4. Zhang, et al. Expires 1 December 2023 [Page 19] Internet-Draft ALTO O&M YANG May 2023 The developer does not have to customize the creation algorithm of the 'ird' resource. The default 'ird' resource will be created automatically based on all the added 'resource' entries. The delegated 'ird' resource will be created as a static ALTO information resource (Section 9.2.4 of [RFC7285]). Each 'resource' entry may also set thresholds of memory usage and active update streams (if "incr-update" feature is enabled). Table 3 describes limits that, once exceeded, will trigger notifications to be generated: +=========================+========================================+ | Notification Threshold | Description | +=========================+========================================+ | notify-res-mem-limit | Used to notify high memory utilization | | | of the resource configured to an ALTO | | | server instance.

When exceeded, an | | | alto-resource-event will be generated. | +-------------------------+----------------------------------------+ Table 3: Notification Thresholds. 5.4.3. ALTO Information Resource Access Control Management As per Section 15.5.2 of [RFC7285], the "ietf-alto" module also defines authentication and authorization related configuration to employ access control at the information resource level. The ALTO server returns the IRD to the ALTO client based on its authentication information. The information resource access control is supported using the structure shown in Figure 10. Zhang, et al. Expires 1 December 2023 [Page 20] Internet-Draft ALTO O&M YANG May 2023 module: ietf-alto +--rw alto! ... +--rw alto-server {alto-server}? ... +--rw auth-client* [client-id] | +--rw client-id string | +--rw (authentication)? | +--:(http) | | +--rw http-auth-client | | {http-listen,http:client-auth-supported, | | http:local-users-supported}? | | +--rw user-id http-user-id-ref | +--:(https) | +--rw https-auth-client | {http:client-auth-supported, | http:local-users-supported}? | | +--rw user-id https-user-id-ref +--rw role* [role-name] | +--rw role-name role-name | +--rw client* client-ref ... Figure 10: IETF ALTO Client Authentication Subtree Structure The above structure can be used to configure the role-based access control: * 'auth-client' declares a list of ALTO clients that can be authenticated by the internal or external authorization server. This basic model only includes authentication approach directly provided by the HTTP server, but the operators or future documents can augment the 'authentication' choice for different authentication mechanisms. * 'role' defines a list of roles for access control. Each role contains a list of authenticated ALTO clients. Each client can be assigned to multiple roles. The 'role-name' can be referenced by the 'accepted-role' list of a 'resource'. For a given authenticated ALTO client, if one of the roles containing it is allowed to access a resource, this client is allowed to access the resource. 6. Design of ALTO O&M Statistics Data Model The "ietf-alto-stats" module augments the "ietf-alto" module to include statistics at the ALTO server and information resource level (Figure 11).

Model for ALTO Server Failure Monitoring To satisfy R6 in Section 4.2, the "ietf-alto-stats" module contains statistics that indicate server failures (Figure 11). More specifically, 'num-total-_' and 'num-total-last-_' provide server-level failure counters; 'num-res-_' and 'num-res-last-_' provide information resource-level failure counters. 6.2. Model for ALTO-specific Performance Monitoring To satisfy R7 in Section 4.2,the "ietf-alto-stats" module also contains statistics for ALTO-specific performance metrics (Figure 11). More specifically, this data model contains the following measurement information of "system and service performance" suggested by [RFC7285] and [RFC7971]: * Requests and responses for each information resource * CPU and memory utilization * ALTO map updates * Number of PIDs * ALTO map sizes Besides the above measurement information suggested by [RFC7285] and [RFC7971], the "ietf-alto-stats" module also contains useful measurement information for other ALTO extensions: * 'num-map-entry' and 'num-base-obj' provide measurement for number of generic ALTO entities (for [RFC9240] and [RFC9241]) Zhang, et al. Expires 1 December 2023 [Page 23] Internet-Draft ALTO O&M YANG May 2023 * 'num-upd-stream' and 'num-upd-msg-*' provide statistics for update streams and messages (for [RFC8189]) The "ietf-alto-stats" module only focuses on the performance metrics that can be directly measured at the ALTO server. The following metrics for "measurement of the impact" suggested by [RFC7971] are not contained in this data model: * Total amount and distribution of traffic * Application performance 7.

Security Considerations The "ietf-alto" and "ietf-alto-stats" YANG modules define data nodes that are designed to be accessed via YANG based management protocols, such as NETCONF [RFC6241] and RESTCONF [RFC8040]. Both of these protocols have mandatory-to-implement secure transport layers (e.g., SSH, TLS) with mutual authentication. The Network 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. There are a number of data nodes defined in these two YANG modules that are writable/creatable/deletable (i.e., config true, which is the default). These data nodes may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. Write operations (e.g., edit-config) to these data nodes without proper protection can have a negative effect on network operations. These are the subtrees and data nodes in "ietf-alto" YANG module and their sensitivity/ vulnerability: '/alto/alto-client/server-discovery': This subtree specifies a set Zhang, et al. Expires 1 December 2023 [Page 60] Internet-Draft ALTO O&M YANG May 2023 of parameters for an ALTO client to discover ALTO servers. Unauthorized access to it could cause intruders to modify the ALTO discovery parameters (e.g., 'dns-server') in order to expose an ALTO client to fake ALTO servers. Likewise, this data node can be manipulated to prevent an ALTO client from discovering a reachable ALTO server. '/alto/alto-server/auth-client': This list specifies all the authenticated ALTO clients on an ALTO server. Unauthorized write access to this list can allow intruders to modify the entries so as to add a client that have not been authenticated yet or delete a client that has already been authenticated. Likewise, this data node can be manipulated to prevent access of legitimate ALTO clients. '/alto/alto-server/role': This list specifies roles which authenticated ALTO clients were assigned to for access control. Unauthorized write access to this list allow intruders to modify the entries so as to permit access that should not be permitted, or deny access that should be permitted. '/alto/alto-server/data-source/feed-interval': This leaf specifies a period for an ALTO server to wait for updates published by a data source. A malicious ALTO client could attempt to set a very low (or large) value to this node. Setting a very low value could attack the data source. Setting a very large value would lead to maintaining stale data in the ALTO server. '/alto/alto-server/data-source/poll-interval': This leaf specifies a period for an ALTO server to proactively poll updates from a data source. A malicious client could attempt to set a very low (or large) value to this node. Setting a very low value could attack the data source. Setting a very large value would lead to maintaining stale data in the ALTO server. Some of the readable data nodes in "ietf-alto" 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: '/alto/alto-server/logging-system': This subtree provides configuration to select a logging system to capture log messages generated by an ALTO server. Unauthorized read access of this node can allow intruders to access logging information, which could be used to craft an attack the server. Zhang, et al. Expires 1 December 2023 [Page 61] Internet-Draft ALTO O&M YANG May 2023 The "ietf-alto" supports an HTTP listen mode to cover cases where the ALTO server stack does not handle the TLS termination itself, but is handled by a separate component. Special care should be considered when such mode is enabled. Note that the default listen mode is 'https'. Also, please be aware that these modules include choice nodes that can be augmented by other extended modules. The augmented data nodes may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. For instance, an augmented case of the 'source-params' choice in 'data-source' may include authentication information about how to access a data source including private network information. The 'yang-datastore' case in Appendix A.3 is such an example. The 'restconf' and 'netconf' nodes in it may reveal the access to a private YANG datastore. Thus, those extended modules may have the NACM extension "default-deny-all" set. These modules use groupings defined in other RFCs that define data nodes that do set the NACM "default-deny-all" and "default-deny- write" extensions. 9.

Appendix A. Examples of Extending the ALTO O&M Data Model Developers and operators can also extend the ALTO O&M data model to align with their own implementations. Specifically, the following nodes of the data model can be augmented: * The server-discovery-manner choice of the server-discovery. * The authentication choice of each auth-client. * The data-source choice. * The algorithm choice of the resource-params of each resource. Zhang, et al. Expires 1 December 2023 [Page 66] Internet-Draft ALTO O&M YANG May 2023 A.1. An Example Module for Extended Server Discovery Manners The base data model defined by ietf-alto.yang only includes a reverse DNS based server discovery manner. The following example module demonstrates how additional server discovery manners can be augmented into the base data model. The case internet-routing-registry allows the ALTO server to update the server URI to the attribute of the corresponding aut-num class in IRR. The case peeringdb allows the ALTO server to update the server URI to the org object of the organization record in PeeringDB. module example-vendor-alto-server-discovery { yang-version 1.1; namespace "https://example.com/ns/vendor-alto-server-discovery"; prefix vendor-alto-disc; import ietf-alto { prefix alto; reference "RFC XXXX: YANG Data Models for the Application-Layer Traffic Optimization (ALTO) Protocol"; } import ietf-inet-types { prefix inet; reference "RFC 6991: Common YANG Data Types"; } organization "Example, Inc."; contact "Example, Inc.

An Example Module for Extended Client Authentication Approaches The base data model "ietf-alto" only includes the client authentication approaches directly provided by the HTTP server. However, an implementation may authenticate clients in different ways. For example, an implementation may delegate the authentication to a third-party OAuth 2.0 server. The following example module demonstrates how additional client authentication approaches can enrich the base data model. In this example, the oauth2 case includes the URI to a third-party OAuth 2.0 based authorization server that the ALTO server can redirect to for the client authentication. Zhang, et al.

Example Module for Extended Data Sources The base data model defined by ietf-alto.yang does not include any choice cases for specific data sources. The following example module demonstrates how a implementation-specific data source can be augmented into the base data model. The yang-datastore case is used to import the YANG data from a YANG model-driven datastore. It includes: * datastore to indicate which datastore is fetched. * target-paths to specify the list of nodes or subtrees in the datastore. * protocol to indicate which protocol is used to access the datastore. Either restconf or netconf can be used. module example-vendor-alto-data-source { yang-version 1.1; namespace "https://example.com/ns/vendor-alto-data-source"; prefix vendor-alto-ds; import ietf-alto { prefix alto; reference "RFC XXXX: YANG Data Models for the Application-Layer Traffic Optimization (ALTO) Protocol"; } import ietf-datastores { prefix ds; reference Zhang, et al.

An Example Module for Information Resource Creation Algorithm The base data model "ietf-alto" does not include any choices cases for information resource creation algorithms. But developers may augment the "ietf-alto" module with definitions for custom creation algorithms for different information resources. The following example module demonstrates the parameters of a network map creation algorithm that translates an IETF layer 3 unicast topology into a network map. Zhang, et al. Expires 1 December 2023 [Page 74] Internet-Draft ALTO O&M YANG May 2023 module: example-vendor-alto-alg augment /alto:alto/alto:alto-server/alto:resource /alto:alto-networkmap-params/alto:algorithm: +--:(l3-unicast-cluster) +--rw l3-unicast-cluster-algorithm +--rw l3-unicast-topo | +--rw source-datastore alto:data-source-ref | +--rw topo-name? leafref +--rw depth? uint32 This example defines a creation algorithm called l3-unicast-cluster- algorithm for the network map resource. It takes two algorithm- specific parameters: 'l3-unicast-topo': This parameter contains information referring to the target path name of an operational yang-datastore data source node (See Appendix A.3) subscribed in the data-source list (See Section 5.4.1). The referenced target path in the corresponding yang-datastore data source is assumed for an IETF layer 3 unicast topology defined in [RFC8346]. The algorithm uses the topology data from this data source to compute the ALTO network map resource. 'source-datastore' refers to the 'source-id' of the operational yang-datastore data source node, and 'topo-name' refers to the 'name' of the target path in the source datastore. 'depth': This optional parameter sets the depth of the clustering algorithm. For example, if the depth is set to 1, the algorithm will generate PID for every l3-node in the topology. The creation algorithm can be reactively called once the referenced data source updates. Therefore, the ALTO network map resource can be updated dynamically. The update of the reference data source depends on the used update-policy (See Section 5.4.1). module example-vendor-alto-alg { yang-version 1.1; namespace "https://example.com/ns/vendor-alto-alg"; prefix vendor-alto-alg; import ietf-alto { prefix alto; reference "RFC XXXX: YANG Data Models for the Application-Layer Traffic Optimization (ALTO) Protocol"; } Zhang, et al.
