1. Introduction
This document defines a YANG data model and associated mechanism to
reset a server to its factory default content. contents. This mechanism may
be used, e.g., for example, when the existing configuration has major
errors and so re-
starting restarting the configuration process from scratch is
the best option.
A "factory-reset" RPC remote procedure call (RPC) is defined within the
YANG data model. When resetting a device, all previous configuration
settings will be lost and replaced by the factory default content. contents.
In addition, an optional "factory-default" read-only datastore is
defined within the YANG data model, that model. This datastore contains the data
to replace the contents of implemented read-write conventional
configuration datastores at reset. This datastore reset and can also be used in the <get-
data>
<get-data> operation.
The YANG data model in this document conforms to the Network
Management Datastore Architecture defined in [RFC8342].
1.1. 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 following terms are defined in [RFC8342] and [RFC7950] and are
not redefined here:
o
* server
o
* startup configuration datastore
o
* candidate configuration datastore
o
* running configuration datastore
o
* intended configuration datastore
o
* operational state datastore
o
* conventional configuration datastore
o
* datastore schema
o
* RPC operation
The following terms are defined in this
This document as follows:
o factory-default defines the following term:
"factory-default" datastore: A read-only configuration datastore
holding a pre-set preset initial configuration that is used to initialize
the configuration of a server. This datastore is referred to as
"<factory-default>".
2. Factory-Reset "Factory-Reset" RPC
A
This document introduces a new "factory-reset" remote procedure call (RPC) is introduced. RPC. Upon receiving
the RPC:
o
* All supported conventional read-write configuration datastores
(i.e.
(i.e., <running>, <startup>, and <candidate>) are reset to the
contents of <factory-default>.
o
* Read-only datastores receive their content contents from other datastores
(e.g., <intended> gets its content contents from <running>).
o
* All data in any dynamic configuration datastores MUST be
discarded.
o
* The contents of the <operational> datastore MUST reflect the
operational state of the device after applying the factory default
configuration.
In addition, the "factory-reset" RPC MUST restore non-volatile nonvolatile storage
to factory condition. Depending on the system, this may entail
deleting dynamically generated files, such as those containing keys
(e.g., /etc/ssl/private), certificates (e.g., /etc/ssl), logs (e.g.,
/var/log), and temporary files (e.g., /tmp/*). Any other
cryptographic keys that are part of the factory-installed image will
be retained (such as an IDevID certificate) [I-D.ietf-anima-
bootstrapping-keyinfra]. Initial Device Identifier (IDevID)
certificate [BRSKI]). When this process includes security-
sensitive security-sensitive
data such as cryptographic keys or passwords, it is RECOMMENDED to
perform the deletion in a manner as thorough a manner as possible (e.g.,
overwriting the physical storage medium with zeros and/or random bits
for repurpose repurposing or end of life (EoL) end-of-life (EOL) disposal) to reduce the risk of
the sensitive material being recoverable. The "factory-reset" RPC
MAY also be used to trigger some other resetting tasks such as
restarting the node or some of the software processes.
Note that operators should be aware that since all read-write
datastores are immediately reset to factory default, the device may
become unreachable as a host on the network. It is important to
understand how a given vendor's device will behave after the RPC is
executed. Implementors SHOULD reboot the device and get it properly
configured or otherwise restart processes needed to bootstrap it.
3. Factory-Default "Factory-Default" Datastore
Following the guidelines for defining Datastores datastores in the appendix Appendix A of
[RFC8342], this document introduces a new optional datastore resource
named "factory-default" that represents a pre-set preset initial
configuration that can be used to initialize the configuration of a
server. A device MAY implement the "factory-reset" RPC without
implementing the "factory-default" datastore, which would only
eliminate the ability to programmatically determine the factory
default configuration.
o
Name: "factory-default"
o "factory-default".
YANG modules: The factory default "factory-default" datastore schema MUST either be either
(1) the same as the conventional configuration datastores, datastores or
(2) a subset of the datastore schema for the conventional
configuration datastores.
o
YANG nodes: all All "config true" data nodes
o nodes.
Management operations: The content contents of the datastore is set by the
server in an implementation dependent implementation-dependent manner. The content can not contents cannot
be changed by management operations via NETCONF, the Network Configuration
Protocol (NETCONF), RESTCONF, the CLI
etc. CLI, etc., unless specialized,
dedicated operations are provided. The datastore can be read
using the standard NETCONF/RESTCONF protocol operations. The
"factory-reset" operation copies the factory default content contents to
<running> and, if present, <startup> and/or
<candidate> and then the content <candidate>. The
contents of these datastores is then propagated automatically to
any other read only read-only datastores, e.g., <intended> and
<operational>.
o
Origin: This document does not define a new origin identity identity, as it
does not interact with the <operational> datastore.
o
Protocols: RESTCONF, NETCONF NETCONF, and other management protocol.
o protocols.
Defining YANG module: "ietf-factory-default".
The contents of <factory-default> are defined by the device vendor
and MUST persist across device restarts. If supported, the factory-
default "factory-
default" datastore MUST be included in the list of datastores in the
YANG library [RFC 8525]. [RFC8525].
4. YANG Module
This module uses the "datastore" identity [RFC8342], [RFC8342] and the
"default-deny-all" extension statement from [RFC8341].

6. Security Considerations
The YANG module defined specified in this document extends the base operations defines a schema for data
that is designed to be accessed via network management protocols such
as NETCONF [RFC6241] and 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]
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.
Access to the "factory-reset" RPC operation and factory default
values of all configuration data nodes within the "factory-default"
datastore is considered sensitive and therefore has been restricted
by using the "default-deny-all" access control statement defined in
[RFC8341].
The "factory-reset" RPC can prevent any further management of the
device when the server is reset back to its factory default
condition,e.g.,
condition, e.g., the session and client config configurations are included
in the factory default contents or treated as dynamic files on the
nonvoliatile in
nonvolatile storage and overwritten by the the "factory-reset" RPC.
The operational disruption caused by setting the config configuration to
factory default contents or lacking the lack of appropriate security control
on the factory default configuration varies greatly greatly, depending on the
implementation and current config. configuration.
The non-volatile nonvolatile storage is expected to be wiped clean and reset back
to the factory default state, but there is no guarantee that the data
is wiped clean according to any particular data cleansing data-cleansing standard,
and the owner of the device MUST NOT rely on any sensitive data
(e.g., private keys) being forensically unrecoverable from the
device's non-
volatile nonvolatile storage after a factory-reset "factory-reset" RPC has been
invoked.
