Internet-Draft BMP YANG Module June 2025
1. Introduction
The BGP Monitoring Protocol (BMP) provides a mechanism for monitoring
BGP sessions. This document defines a YANG data model for BMP,
enabling operators to configure and manage BMP sessions; control the
data exported to monitoring stations; and collect statistics for each
BMP session. The model is designed to accommodate both simple and
advanced deployment scenarios, supporting granular control over
network instances, RIBs, address families, and peers.
2. 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.
Routing Information Bases, peers, monitoring stations, and initiation
messages are defined in [RFC7854].
3. Model description
This document specifies a YANG module for configuring and monitoring
the BGP Monitoring Protocol (BMP) [RFC7854] on the monitored router.
The model provides parameters for configuring the session to BMP
monitoring stations; configuration of BMP messages; provides
operational metrics and enables resetting of BMP monitoring sessions.
The model is included in Section 5. In this section, we provide
details and examples of each of its parts.
The BMP yang model is placed at the root of the YANG tree. At its
upper level, the BMP model lists each monitoring station. Every
monitoring station is identified by an ID, which is a string provided
by the operator.
3.1. IP Connectivity
BMP allows for active and passive connections between the router and
the BMP monitoring station as described in Section 3.2 of [RFC7854].
In an active connection, the router establishes the TCP connection to
the monitoring station, while in a passive one, it is the monitoring
station which initiates the connection. The BMP YANG module provides
options for both types of connection using a choice.
We describe each type of connection option next, and provide examples
of their configuration.

Internet-Draft BMP YANG Module June 2025
3.1.1. Active connection
For an active connection, the IP address and port of the monitoring
station, together with the local endpoint must be provided. The
local endpoint can be a local IP address or a source interface. One
can optionally provide the local port for establishing the
connection. If the monitoring station is connected over a network-
instance instead of the global one, this one must also be specified.
An example of configuration is included in Figure 1.

192.0.2.2
Figure 1: Active connection example
Note in the example from Figure 1 that there is no network instance
defined, so the connection is using the global network instance.
3.1.2. Passive connection
In a passive connection, the IP of the monitoring station, the local
endpoint and local port for the incoming connection must be
specified. If the port of the monitoring station is provided, it
must match the incoming connection. If the monitoring station is
connected through a network-instance instead of the global one, this
one must also be specified.
An incoming connection not matching a valid entry MUST be ignored by
the router.

3.2. TCP Options
The BMP module allows tuning various parameters of the TCP connection
supporting the BMP session:
* The maximum segment size of the TCP connection. See Section 3.7.1
of [RFC9293].
* Enabling MTU discovery for the path. See Section 3.7.2 of
[RFC9293].
* For configuring TCP keepalives, the connection container uses the
tcp-common-grouping from [I-D.ietf-netconf-tcp-client-server].
Note that the implementation must support module ietf-bmp-tcp-
dependencies in addition to the main module to support these
elements. Please see Section 2.1.3.1 of
[I-D.ietf-netconf-tcp-client-server] for the explanation of each
of its parameters. The device must have the feature "tcp-client-
keepalives" enabled. See also Section 3.8.4 of [RFC9293]
* Session security. Provides options for authentication using AO
and MD5. This part of the model was taken from the BGP YANG model
[I-D.ietf-idr-bgp-model]. This feature also requires support of
the ietf-bmp-tcp-dependencies module.

Figure 4: Example of the Configuration of TCP session security.
3.3. Other BMP connectivity options
The model also includes the following options to configure the
connection to the BMP monitoring station:
* Initial-delay: a value in seconds that the device must wait before
starting the connection to the station. An operator can use this
delay to let BGP converge before starting the BMP session.
* Backoff time: Configuration of the backoff time strategy after
failing to connect to the monitoring station. The model includes
a basic exponential backoff with a default initial backoff of 30
seconds and a maximum of 720 seconds, as suggested in Section 3.2
of [RFC7854].
In the example in Figure 5, we configure an initial-delay of 10, an
initial-backoff of 50 seconds and 600 of maximum-backoff.

3.4. BMP data
The bmp-data container defines the configuration parameters for the
data that the device sends to the monitoring station using BMP
messages. See Section 4 of [RFC7854].
The BMP model defines options for the initiation message, the
statistics report, the route mirroring, and the route monitoring.
The first three have simple configuration options and are described
next. Route monitoring is the most complex and is detailed in
Section 3.4.1.
* Initiation-message: Content for an information TLV type-0 for
identification of the device. See 4.3 and Section 4.4 of
[RFC7854]
Cardona, et al. Expires 14 December 2025 [Page 9]
Internet-Draft BMP YANG Module June 2025
* Statistics-interval: The statistics report is enabled by the
presence of the bmp-statistics-report container. The statistics-
interval is mandatory if the bmp-statistics-report container
exists and defines the interval of the statistics report. See
Section 4.8 of [RFC7854].
* Route-mirroring: Route Mirroring messages serve as an exact
replica of the messages received by the device. See Section 6 of
[RFC7854]. Enabling route mirroring messages towards a particular
BMP monitoring station only requires the presence of the container
"bmp-route-mirroing" within the monitoring station container.
An example of configuring the previous options is included in

3.4.1. BMP route monitoring
Route monitoring messages are used for synchronization of RIBs to the
monitoring station. See Section 5 of [RFC7854].
Cardona, et al. Expires 14 December 2025 [Page 10]
Internet-Draft BMP YANG Module June 2025
The next 3 requirements were defined before designing this part of
the model.
* Operators might not want to receive all routes from all RIBs in a
network device. For instance, some devices contain a considerable
amount of data that might overwhelm the monitoring station. In
these cases, operators might want to only collect information from
an arbitrary subset of RIBs, address families, peers.
* Operators might want to configure the route monitoring messages
for different network instances differently. For example, they
might want to receive different address families from the global
network instance than in L3 VPN network instances.
* In contrast to the previous points. some operators might want a
simple configuration that covers multiple cases (e.g. same config
for all peers, or same config for all network instances). This
would not only make configurations look smaller and concise, but
will reduce the need for reconfiguring devices when you add a new
peer or add a new network instance (which happens frequently on
some type of networks).
Based on the previous points, the BMP yang model is designed to
flexibly control the data sent through the BMP route monitoring
packets, yet it provides options to facilitate configurations for
simple cases, such as when the operator wants to receive all routes
from a RIB.
The Routing monitoring configuration is divided in a 4 part
hierarchy:
* Network Instance
* RIB Type (e.g. Adj-RIB-IN pre/post, local RIB)
* Address Family
* Peers
Absence of the routing monitoring container will disable the routing
monitoring messages to the monitoring station.
We'll offer an introduction to these hierarchies before going over
them with detail.
The number of RIB types (e.g. Adj-RIB-IN/OUT, local RIB, etc) and
Address families is low, and their configuration should not change
frequently. Therefore, they are configured explicitly in the model.
That is, the model does not provide a way of providing a default
configuration for these or configuring them in groups.
On the other hand, Network instances and peers require greater
flexibility.
Cardona, et al. Expires 14 December 2025 [Page 11]
Internet-Draft BMP YANG Module June 2025
For network instances, the model should configure not only the
"global" network instance, but also other network instances. Also,
network instances can change frequently in networks with customer
connecting to Virtual Private Networks. To not force operators to
change configuration at every change, the model provides methods for
defining a "default" configuration for network instances. However,
to provide control over the configuration, each network instance can
be configured independently, if needed.
A situation is similar with peers for the Adj-RIB-IN and Adj-RIB-OUT
RIBs. The model includes a way of configuring a default for all
peers for simple cases, but one can provide configuration for type of
peers, peergroups, or each peer individually.
We summarize the requirements stated on the previous two paragraphs
next:
For network instances:
* The configuration should be simple for cases where only the
"global" routing instance is enabled.
* The model should provide ways of configuring all Network instances
(kind of a default config for any Network instance that is
configured in the device).
* The model should provide a way of configuring network instances
individually.
For peers:
* The model should provide ways of configuring all peers, kind of a
default. This would be the most common case.
* The model should provide ways of configuring peergroups.
* The model should provide ways of configuring type of peers. For
instance, only send routes from eBGP peers.
* The model should provide ways of configuring individual peers.
For instance, turn a route-policy filtering prefix for a specific
peer, or turning off a peer that is noisy yet not important.
To further control the route monitoring data, the peer container
includes a route-policy option in which the operator can further
filter the data send to the BMP monitoring station.
We'll describe each of the 4 hierarchies, and provide examples for
each, in the next sections.

Internet-Draft BMP YANG Module June 2025
3.4.1.1. Network instances
The route monitoring configuration starts with the configuration of
network instances. A network instance can be configured
individually, or it can be configured if it matches any of the
selectors from the "bmp-ni-types" identity. We explain each next.
The model currently defines two bmp-ni-types identities: "bmp-ni-
types-all-ni" which selects all network instances, and "bmp-ni-types-
non-global-ni" which selects all network instances except the global
one. The former can be used as a "default" configuration for simple
cases.
The model offers two ways of configuring a network-instance
individually. The main one is under container "bmp-data/bmp-
monitoring-stations/" under the "routing/control-plane-protocols/
control-plane-protocol/bgp". The second one is specifying the name
under the "bmp/bmp-route-monitoring/network-instance". The former
one requires the support of schema-mount and the ietf-bmp-bgp-
dependencies.yang module (which is optional). The latter does not
require support for schema-mount by the device.
An empty configuration disables routing monitoring messages for the
selected network-instances. Operators can also use the "enable" leaf
to disable explicitly the routing messages for the network instance.
The route-monitoring data for a network instance can be configured by
at most one element under the network-instance-configuration
container. There SHOULD be clear rules for which element to apply to
a network instance in case multiple elements can select it. We
provide rules and examples in the next part of the section.
The rules for selecting which element configures a network instance
are presented next. Each point is evaluated only if the previous
points do not hold.
* If the BGP container under the network-instance includes a BMP/
Route monitoring container, it SHOULD be configured by it. Note
that if the monitoring-station is not present in the container,
the route monitoring will be disabled for this network instance.
* If the name of the network instance is referenced in "network-
instance-configuration/network-instances/network-instance", the
network instance SHOULD be configured using this element.
Cardona, et al. Expires 14 December 2025 [Page 13]
Internet-Draft BMP YANG Module June 2025
* If the selector 'bmp-ni-types-global-ni' under the "network-
instance-configuration/network-instance-selectors" exist, the
global network instance SHOULD be configured using this element.
Note that if a vendor has a name for the global network instance,
the previous step (i.e, network instance name) will take priority
over using the bmp-ni-types-global-ni selector.
* If the selector 'bmp-ni-types-non-global-ni' under the "network-
instance-configuration/network-instance-selectors" exist, any non-
global network instance should be configured using its content.
* Any Network instance not referenced by any rule above SHOULD be
configured using the bmp-ni-types-all-ni if one exists. If it
does not exist, then the network instance is not configured (and
therefore no route monitoring messages from the network instance
are sent to the monitoring station).
Any extension of the bmp-ni-types SHOULD provide explanations of how
to deal with case in which multiple elements select the same network
instance.
We provide examples of configuring the network instance level next.
For now, we will focus on the configuration using the BMP container
(not the configuration under the BGP container). To focus on the
network instance configuration, we mask the configuration under each
instance using "Configuration X".

Another simple configuration would just involve configuring the
global network instance. In this case, information of non-global
network instances would not be sent to the monitoring station. This
is depicted in Figure 9

Alternatively to the configuration of Figure 9, if the device
supports the ietf-bgp and ietf-bmp-bgp-dependencies.yang models, one
could configure directly the global instance, but using the BMP
configuration under the BGP container
3.4.1.2. RIB Type
Each RIB type is configured explicitly in the model through a
container. The model currently provides containers for adj-rib-out-
pre, adj-rib-out-post, adj-rib-in-post, adj-rib-in-pre and local-rib.
Cardona, et al. Expires 14 December 2025 [Page 17]
Internet-Draft BMP YANG Module June 2025
An empty configuration or absence of a RIB-type container disables
route-messages for it. Operators can also disable the route
monitoring messages for each RIB explicitly by marking the "enabled"
leaf as False.
We provide an example of this, together with address families, in the
next section
3.4.1.3. Address families
Address families are configured explicitly within each RIB type using
a list. The key is of type `ietf-bgp-types:afi-safi-type` without
any further constraint.
An empty configuration or absence of an address family disables
route-messages for it. Operators can also disable the address-family
route monitoring messages by marking the "enabled" leaf as False.
We show a few examples of configuring RIB-Types and Address families
next. We will mask further configurations of address families with
"Configuration X" to focus on the covered parts.

In Figure 10, we expand previous sections examples with RIB-Type and

configuration would be:
* For the global network instance, adj-rib-in-pre and adj-rib-in-
post RIBs are enabled. In each of them IPv4 and IPv6 address
families are configured. The configuration can be the same or
not, depending on the requirements of the operators. Any other
RIB and address families are disabled.
* Network instance "network-instance-one" is disabled, meaning that
routing monitoring messages are disabled for that network
instance.
* Network instance "network-instance-two" has adj-rib-out-post
enabled, but only address family ipv4-unicast is configured. The
ipv6-unicast will not be configured for this instance.
* For all other network instances, adj-rib-in-pre with IPv4 and IPv6
address families are configured, thanks to the configuration of
bmp-ni-types-all-ni
Cardona, et al. Expires 14 December 2025 [Page 20]
Internet-Draft BMP YANG Module June 2025
If an operator only wants to configure the IPv4/IPv6 of adj-rib-pre-
in for the global instance, the configuration in Figure 11 plus the
peer configuration (coming in next section) will be enough. We note
again that even if the configuration of both address families is the
same, they must be explicitly configured for each of them.

3.4.1.4. Peers
For adj-RIB-in and adj-RIB-out, both pre and post, the model requires
the selection of peer RIBs that will be transmitted to the monitoring
station. The local-rib does not include this container.
Peers can be configured using different "selectors", which can be one
of the following:
* An individual peer, using a remote address. For the configuration
under the "/bmp" tree, the model currently does not check if the
remote address exists, that would be a responsibility of the
device.
* Peergroups.
* A group of peers matching a BGP type. i.e. eBGP peers.
* One or more peers defined by an `bmp-peer-types` identity. The
BMP model currently provides the `bmp-peer-types-all-peers`
identity which select all peers. For simple cases, this is the
value that would normally be considered.
Peers MUST be selected (configured) by at most a single instance of
the peers list. For the included keys in the BMP model, the process
to select which instance to use is as follows:
* If there is a peer address matching the peer, it should be
configured using that instance.
* If the peer matches a peergroup, it should be configured using the
peer-group configuration.
* If the peer is of any BGP type listed in the peer list, it should
be configured using this instance.
* If there is a peer instance identified with the `bmp-peer-types-
all-peers`, it would be configured using this instance.
* Finally, if no instance covers the peer, the data from this peer
should not be transmitted to the monitoring station.
An empty configuration of a peer type disables route-messages for it.
Operators can also disable the address-family route monitoring
messages by marking the "enabled" leaf as False.
Note that if an operator only wants the information of a few peers,
it can enable them individually using their peer-id. If no other
configuration exists, only the messages from those enabled peers will
be transmitted to the monitoring station.
Any additional bmp-peer-types identity created SHOULD describe how to
unambiguously select a peer when there are conflicting options
(multiple options covering the peer).

We'll provide examples of the peers configuration after describing
the filter containers.
3.4.1.5. Filtering route-monitoring messages
The local rib, and the peer containers within the rest of rib types,
include a filter container. This container includes mechanisms to
filter route-monitoring messages for the specific RIB.
The policy-filter can include a routing policy that, if existing,
should be applied to the outgoing updates to the monitoring station,
and would serve as a granular way of filtering the messages that the
monitoring station receives.
Note that the policy-filter contains an `accept-route` default export
policy. An operator can change it to a reject-route, if required.
The policies created with the routing-policy can perform a large
variety of actions routes, and can filter them based on multiple
characteristics. For the consistency of the data in the monitoring
station, the route policies actions SHOULD be restricted to accepting
or rejecting routes. Furthermore, the conditions SHOULD only match
prefix sets.
We present examples of full configurations next.
3.4.1.6. Full examples of Route monitoring configurations
3.4.1.6.1. Example one - simple configuration
In the example configuration from Figure 12, address families IPv6
and IPv4 are configured to send all peers. This is an example of a
simple configuration

3.4.1.6.2. Example two - policy list example
In the example in Figure 13, the global network instance enables the
adj-rib-in-pre. In this RIB, the IPv4 unicast address family is
configured for all external peers. We assume peer 198.51.100.1 is
external, but its BGP configuration is not shown in the snippet.
Peer 198.51.100.1, however, has a specific configuration: it
announces everything but prefixes matching the test_policy list.
Note that there is a default accept-route default policy in the
model.

In the example from Figure 14, all network instances have adj-rib-in-
pre with IPv6 and IPv4 configured receiving all peers. network-
instance-one is disabled, and network-instance-two is announcing only
the local-rib/IPv4 unicast routes.

3.4.1.6.4. Example four - Enabling just a few peers in global
In the example from Figure 15, we configure the device to only send
to the monitoring_station_one monitoring station the Route monitoring
messages for ipv4 and ipv6 from peers "198.51.100.1" and
"198.51.100.2" in the adj-rib-pre-policy.

3.5. Session stats
The non-configurable container "session-stats" includes various
metrics for the session with the monitoring station.
3.6. Session reset action
The "session-reset" action resets a session with a monitoring
station.
4. Implementation guidelines
To facilitate implementation, the model is divided into three
distinct parts. The core model (ietf-bmp) is designed to configure
BMP without deep dependencies to other modules. This is an attempt
to facilitate the implementation by vendors.
Additionally, two supplementary modules, ietf-bmp-bgp-
dependencies.yang and ietf-bmp-tcp-dependencies.yang, enhance the
model's functionality but rely on the IETF BGP and TCP models. These
modules can be adopted by implementations that support these
dependencies.

5.1. Tree View
The following tree diagram provides an overview of the base ietf-
bmp.yang data model. It also includes the trees for the modules
ietf-bmp-bgp-dependencies.yang and ietf-bmp-tcp-dependencies.yang
that adds some options to the models in case the implementation
supports these models (and their requisites)

6. Security Considerations
The YANG module specified in this document defines 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 NETCONF Access Control Model (NACM) [RFC8341]
provides the means to restrict access for NETCONF or RESTCONF users
to a preconfigured subset of all available NETCONF or RESTCONF
protocol operations and content.
BGP data is sensitive for security considerations. The model
described in this document could be used to send BGP information to
malicious BMP stations. Write access to this model SHOULD therefore
be properly protected.
The session-reset action can demand a considerable amount of
resources from network elements. It SHOULD thus be protected from
unauthorized access.
7. IANA Considerations
7.1. The IETF XML Registry
This document registers a URIs in the IETF XML registry [RFC3688].
Following the format in [RFC3688], the following registrations are
requested:
Cardona, et al. Expires 14 December 2025 [Page 90]
Internet-Draft BMP YANG Module June 2025
URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-bmp
Registrant Contact: The IESG.
XML: N/A, the requested URI is an XML namespace.
7.2. The YANG Module Name Registration
This document registers the following YANG module in the " YANG
Module Names" registry registry [RFC6020]:
Name: ietf-bmp
Namespace: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-bmp
Prefix: bmp
Reference: [This RFC-to-be]
8. Open Issues
The security considerations section will have to be aligned with

Appendix A. Examples
This section shows some examples of BMP configuration using the
model.
A.1. Example one
In this example, the device connects to a monitoring station using an
active connection. The devices sends route monitoring messages for
the global instance, the adj-rib-in-pre RIB, the IPv4/IPv6 address
family, and external peers.

Internet-Draft BMP YANG Module June 2025
A.2. Example two
In the next example, the device connects to a monitoring station
using a passive connection, over the network-instance monitoring.
The configuration of route monitoring messages is more complex than
in the previous example. It shows how to combine the configuration
of general identities of network instances and peers (e.g. bmp-ni-
types-all-ni for NI, external for peers), and individual
configurations to support a more complex requirement. This is what
the example expects to configure:
* For the global network instance, the device sends updates for adj-
rib-in-pre, address families IPv4 and IPv6. It sends updates for
all external peers except peer 198.51.100.11, which is disabled.
* Network instance monitoring is disabled for route monitoring
messages.
* For the rest of network instances, we are enabling messages from
adj-rib-in-pre, address families IPv4/IPv6, and for all peers.
