1. Introduction ✨

This doc defines a YANG [RFC7950] data model for managing IGMP and MLD snooping [RFC4541] devices πŸ¦‹

The YANG module here conforms to the NMDA defined in [RFC8342]. NMDA lets you inspect the current operational values as well as the configuration, so clients can use identical paths to fetch configured values and operational values. It's giving consistency πŸ’–

1.1. Terminology πŸ“š

The terminology for describing YANG data models is found in [RFC6020] and [RFC7950], including:

  • augment
  • data model
  • data node
  • identity
  • module

These terms are used in this document:

  • mrouter: multicast router, which is a router that has multicast routing enabled [RFC4286].
  • mrouter interfaces: snooping switch ports where multicast routers are attached [RFC4541].

The following abbreviations are used in this document and defined model:

  • IGMP: Internet Group Management Protocol [RFC3376].
  • MLD: Multicast Listener Discovery [RFC3810].

1.2. Tree Diagrams 🌸

Tree diagrams in this doc follow the notation defined in [RFC8340] 🧚

1.3. Prefixes in Data Node Names πŸŽ€

Here's the deal: names of data nodes, actions, and other data model objects often show up without a prefix, as long as it's clear from context which YANG module each name is defined in. Otherwise, names get the standard prefix tied to their YANG module, as shown in Table 1 πŸ’…

          +==========+======================+===========+
          | Prefix   | YANG module          | Reference |
          +==========+======================+===========+

          +----------+----------------------+-----------+
          | yang     | ietf-yang-types      | [RFC6991] |

2. Design of Data Model πŸ¦‹

An IGMP/MLD snooping switch [RFC4541] analyzes IGMP/MLD packets and sets up forwarding tables for multicast traffic. If a switch doesn't run IGMP/MLD snooping, multicast traffic gets flooded across the broadcast domain πŸ’€ If it does run snooping, multicast traffic gets forwarded based on those tables, so bandwidth isn't wasted πŸ”₯

The IGMP/MLD snooping switch doesn't need to run any of the IGMP/MLD protocols. Snooping is independent of those protocols, so the data model in this doc doesn't augment, or even require, the IGMP/MLD data model defined in [RFC8652]. The model covers considerations for IGMP and MLD snooping switches [RFC4541] 🫢

IGMP and MLD snooping switches don't stick to the conceptual model that strictly separates functionality between communication layers in the ISO model. Instead, they use information from upper-level protocol headers as factors when processing at lower levels [RFC4541] 🌈

IGMP snooping switches use IGMP, and they could support IGMPv1 [RFC1112], IGMPv2 [RFC2236], and IGMPv3 [RFC3376]. MLD snooping switches use MLD, and they could support MLDv1 [RFC2710] and MLDv2 [RFC3810]. The goal of this doc is to define a data model that gives IGMP and MLD snooping one common user interface ✨

2.1. Overview πŸ’–

The YANG module on IGMP and MLD snooping defined here has all the common building blocks for IGMP and MLD snooping switches πŸŽ€

The module includes an IGMP and MLD snooping instance definition that uses the instance in the L2 service type of bridge [dot1Qcp]. It also includes actions for clearing IGMP and MLD snooping group tables 🧚

The module doesn't cover L2VPN, which will be specified in a separate document πŸ™ˆ

2.2. Optional Capabilities πŸ‘‘

This model represents the basic capability subsets of IGMP and MLD snooping. The main design goals are that the basic capabilities in the model are supported by any major existing implementation, and that configuring all implementations which meet the specifications is easy to express through some combination of the optional features in the model and simple vendor augmentations πŸ”₯

Widely supported features being standardized is a big deal too. It gives everyone a standardized way to access those features, saves work for individual vendors, and keeps mapping between different vendors' configuration from getting needlessly complicated πŸ’…

So this model declares a number of features representing capabilities that not all deployed devices support πŸ¦‹

The heavy use of feature declarations should also substantially simplify capability negotiation for a vendor's IGMP and MLD snooping implementations ✨

On the other hand, operational state parameters aren't designated as features nearly as often. In lots of cases, defaulting an operational state parameter wouldn't cause any harm to the system. An implementation without intrinsic support for a piece of operational state is much more likely to be able to derive a suitable value for a state variable that isn't intrinsically supported 🌸

2.3. Position of Address Family in Hierarchy 🌈

IGMP snooping only supports IPv4, while MLD snooping only supports IPv6. The data model in this doc can be used for both IPv4 and IPv6 address families πŸ’œ

This doc defines IGMP snooping and MLD snooping as separate schema branches in the structure. The benefits are:

  • The model can support IGMP snooping (IPv4), MLD snooping (IPv6), or both, optionally and independently. Such flexibility can't be achieved cleanly with a combined branch 🫢
  • The structure is consistent with other YANG data models such as [RFC8652], which uses separate branches for IPv4 and IPv6 ✨
  • Having separate branches for IGMP snooping and MLD snooping lets minor differences in their behavior be modeled more simply and cleanly. The two branches can better support different features and node types πŸŽ€

3. Module Structure 🧚

This model augments the core routing data model specified in [RFC8349] πŸ’–

   +--rw routing
      +--rw router-id?
      +--rw control-plane-protocols
      |  +--rw control-plane-protocol* [type name]
      |     +--rw type
      |     +--rw name
      |     +--rw igmp-snooping-instance <= Augmented by this Model
                     ...
      |     +--rw mld-snooping-instance   <= Augmented by this Model
                     ...

The "igmp-snooping-instance" container instantiates an IGMP snooping instance. The "mld-snooping-instance" container instantiates an MLD snooping instance 🌸

The YANG data model defined in this doc conforms to the NMDA [RFC8342]. The operational state data is combined with the associated configuration data in the same hierarchy [RFC8407] 🌈

3.1. IGMP Snooping Instances πŸ¦‹

okay so the ietf-igmp-mld-snooping module augments /rt:routing/rt:control-plane-protocols/rt:control-plane-protocol to add the igmp-snooping-instance container. bestie, this is the main character of IGMP snooping πŸ’…

all the IGMP snooping stuff lives inside that one igmp-snooping-instance. the read-write attributes are the configurable data (the stuff you get to set ✨), and the read-only attributes are the state data (what's actually happening right now πŸ‘€).

one igmp-snooping-instance can be used in one [dot1Qcp] bridge instance, and it lines up with exactly one bridge instance 🫢

rn the value of l2-service-type in igmp-snooping-instance can only be set to 'bridge'. once it's set, the instance can be used in the bridge service 🌸

the values of bridge-mrouter-interface get filled in by the snooping device on its own (dynamically) πŸ€–. that's different from static-bridge-mrouter-interface, which you configure yourself πŸŽ€

the attributes under the interfaces show the statistics of IGMP snooping-related packets. it's giving accounting πŸ“Š

3.2. MLD Snooping Instances 🌈

same energy, IPv6 edition πŸ’œ the ietf-igmp-mld-snooping module augments /rt:routing/rt:control-plane-protocols/rt:control-plane-protocol to add the mld-snooping-instance container. the mld-snooping-instance can be used in the bridge [dot1Qcp] service to turn on MLD snooping ✨

all the MLD snooping stuff is defined in the mld-snooping-instance. read-write attributes = configurable data, read-only attributes = state data. simple as that πŸ“

the mld-snooping-instance is basically built like IGMP snooping, just with different protocol bits 🧚 some leaves are protocol-related: it uses IPv6 addresses and mld-version, while igmp-snooping-instance uses IPv4 addresses and igmp-version. the statistic counters are also tailored to MLD specifically πŸ“Š one mld-snooping-instance can be used in one bridge instance and corresponds to one bridge instance, same as before πŸ¦‹

rn the value of l2-service-type in mld-snooping-instance can only be set to 'bridge'. after it's set, the instance can be used in the bridge service πŸŽ€

the value of bridge-mrouter-interface is filled in by the snooping device dynamically πŸ€–. it's different from static-bridge-mrouter-interface, which is configured πŸ’…

the attributes under the interfaces show the statistics of MLD snooping-related packets πŸ’–

3.3. Using IGMP and MLD Snooping Instances πŸŽ€

the igmp-snooping-instance can be used in the bridge [dot1Qcp] service to configure IGMP snooping 🫢

for the bridge service, this model augments /dot1q:bridges/dot1q:bridge so it can use igmp-snooping-instance. which means IGMP snooping is enabled in the bridge πŸ’…

it also augments /dot1q:bridges/dot1q:bridge/dot1q:component/dot1q:bridge-vlan/dot1q:vlan to use igmp-snooping-instance. which means IGMP snooping is enabled in that specific VLAN on the bridge 🌸

the mld-snooping-instance can be used alongside the igmp-snooping-instance to configure MLD snooping 🌈

3.4. IGMP and MLD Snooping Actions 🧹

okay this is the cleanup crew 🧹✨ IGMP and MLD snooping actions clear the specified IGMP and MLD snooping group tables. if both source X and group Y are specified, only source X from group Y in that specific instance gets cleared. very targeted, very iconic 🎯

Okay so the first grouping is for the group-level attributes that both IGMP and MLD snooping share πŸ¦‹ It holds mac-address, expire, and up-time, and up-time is the one flagged as mandatory πŸ’…

Then there's the instance-level state grouping, which has entries-count and the bridge-mrouter-interface leaf-list 🌸 That one has a when condition tied to the bridge service type, so it only shows up when the L2 service is a bridge 🧚

The source-level grouping mirrors a lot of that, with bridge-outgoing-interface, its own up-time and expire, and host-count, which only exists if the explicit-tracking feature is enabled ✨

Last but not least, the two statistics groupings πŸ“Š The IGMP one covers Query, Membership Report v1/v2/v3, Leave and PIM hello counters, and the MLD one covers its own Query, Report v1/v2, Done and PIM hello counters 🌈 Each leaf points back to its source RFC in the reference statement, so you can always trace where a counter comes from πŸ’œ

okay so we're still deep in the IGMP and MLD snooping YANG module πŸŽ€ this bit is the big augment that hangs the whole IGMP snooping instance off each control-plane protocol entry πŸ’… the code stays exactly as written bestie, the vibe changes but the facts don't 🫢

5. Security Considerations πŸ”’

okay bestie, security time πŸ”’ this YANG module is a schema for data that's built to be reached through network management protocols like 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 Network Configuration Access Control Model (NACM) [RFC8341] is the bouncer πŸ’… it lets you restrict access for particular NETCONF or RESTCONF users to a preconfigured subset of all the available protocol operations and content.

there are a bunch of data nodes in this module that are writable/creatable/deletable (so, 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 and their sensitivity/vulnerability:

Under /rt:routing/rt:control-plane-protocols/rt:control-plane-
protocol:/

   ims:igmp-snooping-instance

   ims:mld-snooping-instance

The subtrees under /dot1q:bridges/dot1q:bridge

   ims:igmp-snooping-instance

   ims:mld-snooping-instance

The subtrees under /dot1q:bridges/dot1q:bridge/dot1q:component/
dot1q:bridge-vlan/dot1q:vlan

   ims:igmp-snooping-instance

   ims:mld-snooping-instance

unauthorized access to any data node in these subtrees can seriously mess with the IGMP and MLD snooping subsystem of both the local device and the network 😭 this may lead to network malfunctions, packets getting delivered to inappropriate destinations, and other problems. chaos, honestly πŸ’€

some of the readable data nodes in this module may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. so it's really 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:

Under /rt:routing/rt:control-plane-protocols/rt:control-plane-
protocol:/

   ims:igmp-snooping-instance

   ims:mld-snooping-instance

unauthorized access to any data node in these subtrees can disclose the operational state information of IGMP and MLD snooping on this device. the group/source/host information may expose multicast group memberships and, transitively, the associations between the user on the host and the contents from the source, which could be privately sensitive πŸ™ˆ

some of the action operations in this module may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments, so it's important to control access to these operations too. these are the operations and their sensitivity/vulnerability:

Under /rt:routing/rt:control-plane-protocols/rt:control-plane-
protocol:/

   ims:igmp-snooping-instance/ims:clear-igmp-snooping-groups

   ims:mld-snooping-instance/ims:clear-mld-snooping-groups

some of the actions in this module may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. the IGMP and MLD snooping YANG module supports the clear-igmp-snooping-groups and clear-mld-snooping-groups actions. if an unauthorized action is invoked, the IGMP and MLD snooping group tables will be cleared unexpectedly. especially when using wildcard, all the multicast traffic will be flooded in the broadcast domain 🌊 the devices that use this YANG module should heed the security considerations in [RFC4541].

6. IANA Considerations πŸ“‹

more IANA goodies are coming up in the next part πŸŽ€

6.1. XML Registry

okay so this section is the paperwork bit for the XML namespace πŸŽ€ The IETF is registering the namespace URI in the "IETF XML Registry" [RFC3688] πŸ’…

urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-igmp-mld-snooping

Registrant Contact: The IETF. ✨ XML: N/A; the requested URI is an XML namespace. πŸ¦‹

6.2. YANG Module Names Registry

bestie, same energy here πŸ’– This document registers the YANG module in the "YANG Module Names" registry [RFC7950] 🌸
