Introduction YANG-Push [RFC8639] allows publishers to send notifications to a data collection. The YANG-Push receiver decodes the message and optionally validates the header and the content before forwarding to the next process in the data collection system. The notification container from YANG-Push is currently based on the XML model from NETCONF Event Notifications [RFC5277]. This model has the drawback that only a single mandatory "eventTime" leaf is defined and does not offer a way to extend this header with new notification metadata. Additionally, this XML model is only valid for XML-based environments. When messages are encoded in other YANG encodings, such as JSON [RFC7951] or CBOR [RFC9254], validators cannot use YANG to validate the message schema. YANG data consumer receiving notifications require additional notification metadata to understand the full context of the received message. For example, in addition to the timestamp of when the event was encoded, it is also important to know the timestamp when the metrics were observed, the hostname that sourced the message, and have sequence numbers in generated messages so that lost notification messages can be detected in unreliable transports. This additional notification metadata is also helpful to correlate the data with other sources of Network Telemetry [RFC9232] information. For such reasons, this document proposes the following: * First, it provides an extensible YANG notification header allowing implementors and IETF contributors to easily add new notification metadata to the notification message. * Second, it provides the first crucial extensions enabling operators to identify which network node publishes which YANG-Push messages and when the events or metrics were observed on the network node. * And finally, it provides a way to enable and disable these extensions globally at the server, making the coexistence of different YANG-Push and NETCONF Event Notification [RFC5277] possible.

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 terms "subscriber", "publisher", and "receiver" are used as defined in [RFC8639]. The terms "client" is used as defined in [RFC6241] for NETCONF and [RFC8040] for RESTCONF. The terms "implementation-time information" and "runtime information" are used as defined in [RFC9196]. In addition, this document defines the following terms: Notification Metadata: Additional data describing the context of a notification that is sent in each message, e.g. which node generated the messsage or at which time the notification was published. Notification Envelope: YANG structure encapsulating the payload of a notification, allowing the inclusion of metadata. 2. Relationship to past documents This section shows the relationship to [RFC5277], [RFC8639], [RFC7951] and [RFC9254]. 2.1. Relationship to RFC5277 [RFC5277] defines a mechanism for NETCONF nodes to send notifications to a collector. These are the key relationships between the current document and [RFC5277]: * This document does not change the header defined by [RFC5277] nor update any behavior defined in [RFC5277]. Implementations of [RFC5277] use the header defined in Section 2.2.1 of [RFC5277]. * The co-existance of the notification model defined in [RFC5277] and the model defined in the current document is possible. The co-existence is discussed in Section 4. Huang Feng, et al. Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 4] Internet-Draft YANG-Push Notification Envelope March 2025 2.2. Relationship to RFC8639 Subscribed Notifications [RFC8639] defines a mechanism on top of [RFC5277] to stream notifications from the NETCONF node. These are the key relationships between the current document and [RFC8639]: * Section 1.4 of [RFC8639] states that the solution uses the notification header defined in [RFC5277]. This document proposes a new header, which clients can enable and replace the previously [RFC5277] defined. When this new header is used, notification messages are encoded as defined in Section 3.3. * Section 2.4.2 of [RFC8639] defines how a YANG-Push subscription is defined via an the 'establish-subscription' RPC. This document extends the RPCs from Subscribed Notifications [RFC8639] to support enabling the new header defined in this document. 2.3. Relationship to RFC7950 [RFC7950] defines how YANG data is encoded in XML. These are the key relationship points between the current document and [RFC7950]: * Section 7.16.2 of [RFC7950] defines the XML encoding of YANG notification. This document defines a new header for such notifications. When a YANG-Push publisher implements the specifications in this document with the XML encoding, the notifications are encoded according to Section 3.3.2.1 in this document. 2.4. Relationship to RFC7951 [RFC7951] defines how YANG data is encoded using JSON. These are the key relationship points between the current document and [RFC7951]: * [RFC7951] does not define explicitly how a YANG notification should be encoded using JSON encoding. This document specifies a new header for such notifications. When a YANG-Push publisher implements the specifications in this document with JSON encoding, the notifications are encoded according to Section 3.3.2.2 in this document. 2.5. Relationship to RFC9254 [RFC9254] defines how YANG data is encoded using CBOR. These are the key relationship points between the current document and [RFC9254]: Huang Feng, et al. Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 5] Internet-Draft YANG-Push Notification Envelope March 2025 * [RFC9254] does not define explicitly how a YANG notification should be encoded using CBOR encoding. When a YANG-Push publisher implements the specifications in this document in CBOR encoding, the notifications are encoded according to Section 3.3.2.3 in this document. 3. Solution Section 4.2.10 of [RFC7950] defines the encoding of YANG notifications. A notification is created by defining a 'notification' statement in the YANG module. When a NETCONF server sends this notification, it is composed of two parts: a header containing notification metadata which encapsulates the content and the content defined by the 'notification' statement. In YANG 1.1 [RFC7950], the notification header is based on the model defined in [RFC5277] which contains a single metadata 'eventTime' leaf. An example extracted from [RFC7950] is shown in the following XML: 2007-09-01T10:00:00Z so-1/2/3.0 up down This document defines a new notification header and enables extending this header with new notification metadata. The notification header and extensions defined in the following sections are to be used in YANG-Push [RFC8641] environments and can be implemented with NETCONF [RFC6241] and RESTCONF [RFC8040]. Thus, when enabled, this new header replaces the notifications defined in Subscribed Notifications [RFC8639] and YANG-Push [RFC8641] notifications globally for all the entire server. Section 3.1 defines how a client enables the header defined in this document. Section 3.2 extends the model from [RFC9196] to enable clients to discover the capability of using the new notification header for both implementation-time information and runtime information. Lastly, Section 3.3.2 defines the new notification header and how it is encoded using XML, JSON and CBOR. Huang Feng, et al. Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 6] Internet-Draft YANG-Push Notification Envelope March 2025 3.1. Enabling the Notification Envelope The use of the notification envelope defined in this document can be enabled during the configuration of a YANG-Push subscription. This document augments the "ietf-subscribed-notification" model [RFC8639] to support the configuration of the "notification-envelope". When enabled, all the notifications defined in Subscribed Notification [RFC8639] and YANG-Push [RFC8641] are encoded as defined in Section 3.3. module: ietf-yp-notification augment /sn:subscriptions: +--rw enable-notification-envelope? boolean +--rw metadata When the node 'enable-notification-envelope' is set to true, the notifications published by a YANG-Push publisher MUST use the header defined in Section 3.3.1. If any notification metadata is enabled during the configuration of the subscription, the notification metadata nodes MUST be present in the header. When this node is disabled, notifications are encoded as defined in NETCONF Event Notifications [RFC5277]. When there are existing subscriptions and a client changes the node 'enable-notification-envelope', all existing subscriptions MUST be terminated. The publisher MUST send a 'subscription-terminated' notification to all the existing subscriptions using the header configured prior to the change. Any new subscription after the change use the header defined by the node 'enable-notification- envelope', i.e. encoded as Section 3.3.1 when enabled and as defined in [RFC5277] if disabled. 3.2. Discovering the support of this model A client can discover the support of 'notification-envelope' model through the capabilities model defined in [RFC9196]. This documents extends the 'ietf-notification-capabilities' model with: * A container containing a leaf 'notification-envelope', stating that the YANG notification can be encoded following the notification-envelope model. * A container 'metadata' containing all the supported extensions to this header. Extensions are defined in Section 3.4. The YANG models defined in Section 5 augments the 'ietf-notification- capabilities' model with the leaf and container listed above: Huang Feng, et al. Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 7] Internet-Draft YANG-Push Notification Envelope March 2025 augment /sysc:system-capabilities/notc:subscription-capabilities: +--ro notification-metadata +--ro notification-envelope? boolean +--ro metadata This model can be retrieved via a NETCONF RPC. 3.3. Notification Envelope This section defines how YANG notifications are structured when the notification envelope is enabled on YANG-Push subscriptions. The following sections define how this model is encoded in XML, JSON and CBOR. 3.3.1. Base Notification Model When a YANG-Push publisher uses the notification model defined in this document, the notification is structured as follows: * The notification is encapsulated in a root "envelope" container. * The header of the notification contains the notification metadata that is enabled during the configuration of the subscription as a child nodes of the root "notification-envelope" container. * The content of the notification defined by the 'notification' statement is encoded in the 'contents' leaf. * The 'contents' element SHOULD be located at the end of the notification envelop structure. The following YANG tree [RFC8340] illustrates the notification envelope supporting only the mandatory metadata 'event-time'. See Section 3.4 for more extensions to this header. structure envelope: +-- event-time yang:date-and-time +-- contents? 3.3.2. Encoding of the Notification model The YANG notification can be encoded using XML [W3C.REC-xml-20001006][RFC7951], JSON [RFC7951] and CBOR [RFC9254]. Huang Feng, et al. Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 8] Internet-Draft YANG-Push Notification Envelope March 2025 3.3.2.1. XML encoding A YANG notification encoded in XML is structured as a root "envelope" container. The namespace of this container is the namespace defined in the YANG module "ietf-yp-notification": urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-yp-notification Two mandatory child nodes within the "envelope" container are expected, representing the event time and the notification payload. The "event-time" node is defined within the same XML namespace as the "envelope" container. The "event-time" node MUST be compliant with [RFC3339]. Other notification metadata defined within the YANG module defined in Section 5.1.2 MUST use the same XML namespace. See Section 3.4 for more details. When other notification metadata is enabled through configuration, the supplementary nodes are encoded at the same level of the mandatory "event-time" node and use the XML namespace defined in the YANG module. The content of the notification that is defined by the 'notification' statement is encoded in the "contents" node. The name and namespace of this payload element are determined by the YANG module containing the 'notification' statement representing the notification message. The following example shows a "push-update" notification defined in the YANG module of YANG-Push [RFC8641] encoded in XML: 2024-10-10T10:59:55.32Z 1011 eth0 up Figure 1: XML-encoded notification Huang Feng, et al. Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 9] Internet-Draft YANG-Push Notification Envelope March 2025 3.3.2.2. JSON Encoding A YANG notification encoded in JSON is structured as a root "envelope" container. The namespace of this container is the name of the YANG module "ietf-yp-notification" defined in Section 5.1.2. Two mandatory child nodes within the "ietf-notification:envelope" container are expected, representing the event time and the notification payload. The "event-time" node is defined within the same namespace as the "ietf-yp-notification:envelope" container and is compliant with [RFC3339]. Other metadata specified within the YANG module defined in Section 5.1.2 MUST use the same namespace "ietf-yp-notification". When other notification metadata is enabled through configuration, the supplementary nodes are encoded at the same level of the mandatory 'event-time' node and use the YANG module name as its namespace. See Section 3.4 for more details. The content of the notification that is defined by the 'notification' statement is encoded in the "contents" node. The name and namespace of this payload element are determined by the YANG module containing the 'notification' statement representing the notification message. The following example shows a "push-update" notification defined in the YANG module of YANG-Push [RFC8641] encoded in JSON: { "ietf-yp-notification:envelope": { "event-time": "2024-10-10T08:00:11.22Z", "contents": { "ietf-yang-push:push-update": { "id": 1011, "datastore-contents": { "ietf-interfaces:interfaces": [ { "interface": { "name": "eth0", "oper-status": "up" } } ] } } } } } Huang Feng, et al. Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 10] Internet-Draft YANG-Push Notification Envelope March 2025 Figure 2: JSON-encoded notification 3.3.2.3. CBOR Encoding YANG notifications can be encoded in CBOR using Names or SIDs in keys. Notifications encoded using names is similar to JSON encoding as defined in Section 3.3 of [RFC9254]. The key of the element can be the name of the element itself or be namespace-qualified. In the latter case, the namespace of the notification container uses the YANG module name "ietf-yp-notification" defined in Section 5.1.2. Notification encoded using YANG-SIDs replaces the names of the keys of the CBOR encoded message for a 63 bit unsigned integer. In this case, the keys of the encoded data use the SID value as defined in Section 3.2 of [RFC9254]. A SID allocation process is needed beforehand as defined in [RFC9595]. In the notification, two mandatory child nodes within the "ietf-yp- notification:envelope" container are expected, representing the event time and the notification payload. The "event-time" node is defined within the same namespace as the "ietf-yp-notification:envelope" container and is compliant with [RFC3339]. When other notification metadata is enabled through configuration, the supplementary nodes are encoded at the same level of the mandatory "event-time" node and use the YANG module name as its namespace when they are encoded as names. When they are encoded using YANG SIDs, a SID value assigned to the metadata node is used. See Section 3.4 for more details. The content of the notification that is defined by the 'notification' statement is encoded in the "contents" node. The name and namespace of this payload element are determined by the YANG module containing the 'notification' statement representing the notification message. Similarly, SIDs can be used as keys if they are well allocated. Figure 3 shows a "push-update" notification defined in the YANG module of YANG-Push [RFC8641] encoded in CBOR using names as keys. The example uses the CBOR diagnostic notation as defined in section 3.1 of [RFC9254]: Huang Feng, et al.

Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 12] Internet-Draft YANG-Push Notification Envelope March 2025 3.4. Extensions for the Notification Envelope This section describes two envelope header extensions. When the envelope is enabled via the "enable-notification-envelope" node, the publisher includes by default the "hostname" and "sequence-number" defined in Section 3.4.1. The client discovers the support of these two extensions with the mechanism defined in Section 3.2. When the extensions defined in this document are supported by the server, the client discovers the presence of these new metadata with the following augmentations in the 'ietf-notification-capabilities': module: ietf-yp-notification augment /sysc:system-capabilities/notc:subscription-capabilities: +--ro notification-metadata +--ro notification-envelope? boolean +--ro metadata +--ro hostname-sequence-number? boolean module: ietf-yp-observation augment /sysc:system-capabilities/notc:subscription-capabilities: +--ro yang-push-observation-supported? boolean {yang-push-observation-timestamp}? This document defines the following notification metadata as shown in the following YANG tree [RFC8340]. It also defines an extension to the YANG-Push header. See the following sections for more details. structure envelope: +-- event-time yang:date-and-time +-- hostname? inet:host +-- sequence-number? yang:counter32 +-- contents? 3.4.1. Support of Hostname and Sequencing When YANG-Push notification messages are forwarded from a receiver to another system, such as a message broker or a time series database, the transport context is lost since it is not part of the notification metadata of the notification container. Therefore, the downstream system is unable to associate the message to the publishing process (the exporting network node), nor able to detect message loss or reordering. To correlate network data among different Network Telemetry planes as described in Section 3.1 of [RFC9232] or among different YANG-Push subscription types as defined in Section 3.1 of [RFC8641], a Huang Feng, et al. Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 13] Internet-Draft YANG-Push Notification Envelope March 2025 reference to the node streaming the data is needed. This is essential for understanding the timely relationship among these different planes and YANG-Push subscription types. Today, network operators work around this impediment by preserving the transport source IP address and sequence numbers of the publishing process. However, this implies encoding this information in the YANG-Push notification messages which impacts the semantic readability of the message in the downstream system. On top of that, the transport source IP address might not represent the management IP address by which the YANG-Push publisher should be known. In other terms, the source-host [RFC6470], which is the "Address of the remote host for the session" might not be the management IP address. To overcome these issues, this document proposes a notification container extension with a hostname and a sequence number. This allows the downstream system to not only be able to identify from which network node, subscription, and time the message was published but also, the order of the published messages. hostname: Describes the node's hostname according to the 'sysName' object definition in [RFC1213] from where the message was published from. This value is usually configured on the node by the administrator to uniquely identify the node in the network. sequence-number: Generates a unique sequence number for each published message by the publisher process. The number counts up at every published notification message as described in [RFC9187]. Figure 5 provides an example of a JSON encoded, [RFC8259], "push- update" notification message with hostname and sequence-number as extension. Huang Feng, et al.

Extensions for the YANG-Push Envelope This section described two optional YANG 'push-update' and 'push- change-update' notification header extensions which are enabled by default.

This document defines the following notification metadata as shown in the following YANG tree [RFC8340]. See the following sections for more details. Huang Feng, et al.

Support of Observation Timestamp To correlate network data among different Network Telemetry planes, as described in Section 3.1 of [RFC9232], or among different YANG- Push subscription types, as defined in Section 3.1 of [RFC8641], a receiver needs a timestamp reference to align all the metrics and events. The observation timestamp defined in this document characterizes the moment the state change was observed or the moment when the data was measured, so that a receiver can correctly align the collected data. The delay between the YANG-Push export process and the reception of the message at the receiver instance can be measured using the node 'event-time' defined in Section 3.3.1. However, as the 'event-time' node only defines the moment when the YANG-Push message was crafted and sent, the moment when such metrics were collected or the state changes were observed cannot be measured using this timestamp. The observation timestamp defined in this section characterizes the moment when the metrics were observed, which enable aligning the received metrics to the actual moment they were measured. Huang Feng, et al. Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 16] Internet-Draft YANG-Push Notification Envelope March 2025 When the time bucket length in a time series database and the periodical YANG-Push subscription time is configured with the same values, the 'event-time' of the NETCONF notification message header can be used for indexing the data in the time series database. There is a variable delay between the observation timestamp, the 'event- time', and the anchor-time as described in Section 4.2 of [RFC8641]. When these timestamps are close to the time bucket boundaries, a time bucket may experience data collection discrepancies, e.g. 0 measurements are aggregated into one time bucket while the next time bucket contains 2 measurements. This lead to inconsistent accounting errors in the time series database. This problem is resolved by using the observation timestamp instead of the 'event-time' for time series database indexation. By extending YANG-Push Notifications with the observation timestamp and a 'point-in-time' node, the data collection process can always ensure that it has the best available time for indexing the data. It can therefore use unconditionally the observation timestamp node in the data processing chain to correctly align the metrics and events. At the same time, the 'point-in-time' node ensures that the semantics associated to the timestamp are not lost throughout the data collection chain. Besides the Subscription ID as described in Section 3.7 of [RFC8641], the following network observation time metadata objects are part of "push-update" and "push-change-update" notifications. timestamp: States the measurement observation time for the "push- update" notification in "periodical" subscriptions and for the "push-change-update" notification in "on-change" subscriptions. By comparing the observation timestamp of two "push-update" notifications in a periodical subscription, the collector can deduce the actual cadence of the measurements, and compare it with the subscription configuration. In case of an "on-change" subscription it states the time when the network state change was observed. point-in-time: The enumeration states at which point in time the value of the observation timestamp was observed. Choices are: 'current-accounting' states the point in time where the metrics are polled and observed in "periodical" subscriptions. 'initial-state' states the initial point in time when the subscription was established and the state was observed for "on- change sync on start" subscriptions. Huang Feng, et al. Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 17] Internet-Draft YANG-Push Notification Envelope March 2025 'state-changed' states the point in time when the state change was observed after the subscription was established for "on-change" and "on-change sync on start" subscriptions. 3.5.1.1. Usage Example This section illustrates the usage of the "point-in-time" node in two different subscriptions. Section 3.5.1.1.1 showcases a YANG-Push subscription monitoring the state of an interface using a 'on-change sync on start' subscription. Section 3.5.1.1.2 illustrates the usage of the 'point-in-time' node within periodical subscriptions. 3.5.1.1.1. On-Change Subscriptions Figure 6 illustrates the set of events that lead to the generation of 'on-change' YANG-Push notifications. This timeline depicts the following states and events: * T1: At first, the operational state of the interface is "Up". * T2: After configuring an 'on-change' subscription supporting 'sync on start', the publisher sends the initial state of the interface. * T3: This is the moment the interface changes its operational status to "Down". * T4: After the interface state changes, the publisher generates the 'on-change' notification alerting the receiver. Timeline ----------------------------------------------------------------------> | (T1) Interface | (T2) YANG-Push | (T3) Interface | (T4) YANG-Push | state changed | "on-change sync | state changed | "on-change" | to "Up". | on start" | to "Down". | notification | | subscription for | | with the new | | interface state | | interface state. | | is established. | | v v v v Figure 6: Example timeline for On-Change Sync on Start Subscription At T2, after configuring the subscription, the publisher triggers a 'push-update' notification as depicted in Figure 7. The 'event-time' is the moment the YANG-Push process triggered the notification while the 'ietf-yp-observation:timestamp' node characterizes the timestamp T1, the latest moment this state was observed. In this case, the 'point-in-time' node is set to 'initial-state'. Huang Feng, et al.

After T3, the publisher triggers a 'push-change-update' notification announcing an interface status change to the receiver as depicted in Figure 8. In this case, the 'ietf-yp-observation:timestamp' node characterizes the moment the interface changed its status at T3 while the value of the 'event-time' node characterizes the moment the YANG- Push process generated the message at T4.

Periodical Subscriptions In periodical subscription, the observation time characterizes the time when the metrics were polled from the datastore before it generates the actual YANG-Push message. Figure 9 illustrates the delays associated to the generation of the YANG-Push message. The timeline shows the following states: Huang Feng, et al. Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 20] Internet-Draft YANG-Push Notification Envelope March 2025 * T1: First, the periodical subscription is configured to push the operational status of the interface every N interval. * T2: This is the moment the YANG-Push process polls the data state data and metrics from the datastore. * T3: After polling the metrics, the YANG-Push process generates the 'push-update' notification.

In this case, the node 'event-time' characterizes the moment the YANG-Push process generated the message while the node 'ietf-yp-observation:timestamp' establishes the moment when the metrics were polled from the datastore.

An operator deploying the header defined in this document should take the appropriate actions when both headers are used within the same network.

Huawei VRP Huawei implemented in push-update and push-change-update notifications the timestamp and point-in-time extension as described in Section 3.5 for a YANG-Push publisher on UDP-based Transport for Configured Subscriptions [I-D.ietf-netconf-udp-notif] in their VRP platform. Huang Feng, et al. Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 30] Internet-Draft YANG-Push Notification Envelope March 2025 6.2. 6WIND VSR 6WIND implemented in push-update and push-change-update notifications the timestamp and point-in-time extension as described in Section 3.5 for a YANG-Push publisher on UDP-based Transport for Configured Subscriptions [I-D.ietf-netconf-udp-notif] in their VSR platform. 6.3. Cisco IOS XR Cisco implemented in push-update and push-change-update notifications the timestamp and point-in-time extension as described in Section 3.5 for a YANG-Push publisher on UDP-based Transport for Configured Subscriptions [I-D.ietf-netconf-udp-notif] in their IOS XR platform. 7. Security Considerations This section uses the template described in Section 3.7 of [I-D.ietf-netmod-rfc8407bis]. The "ietf-yp-notification" and "ietf-yp-observation" YANG modules defines data models that are designed to be accessed via YANG-based management protocols, such as NETCONF [RFC6241] and RESTCONF [RFC8040]. These protocols have to use a secure transport layer (e.g., SSH [RFC6242], TLS [RFC8446], and QUIC [RFC9000]) and have to use mutual authentication. The Network Configuration Access Control Model (NACM) [RFC8341] provides the means to restrict access for particular NETCONF or RESTCONF users to a preconfigured subset of all available NETCONF or RESTCONF protocol operations and content. There are a number of data nodes defined in this YANG module that are writable/creatable/deletable (i.e., "config true", which is the default). All writable data nodes are likely to be reasonably sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. Write operations (e.g., edit-config) and delete operations to these data nodes without proper protection or authentication can have a negative effect on network operations. The following subtrees and data nodes have particular sensitivities/vulnerabilities: * /sn:subscriptions/inotenv:enable-notification-envelope The entries in the list above will show whether the mechanism defined in this document is enabled. Access control MUST be set so that only someone with proper access permissions has the ability to access and modify this resource. Huang Feng, et al.
