Introduction This document defines a YANG module [RFC7950] for the management of the IP Traffic Flow Security (IP-TFS) extensions defined in [RFC9347]. IP-TFS provides enhancements to an IPsec tunnel Security Association (SA) to provide improved traffic confidentiality. Traffic confidentiality reduces the ability of traffic analysis to determine identity and correlate observable traffic patterns. IP-TFS offers efficiency when aggregating traffic in fixed-size IPsec tunnel packets. The YANG data model in this document conforms to the Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA) defined in [RFC8342]. The published YANG modules for IPsec are defined in [RFC9061]. This document uses these models as a general IPsec model that is augmented for IP-TFS. The models in [RFC9061] provide for both an IKE and an IKE-less model. 2. Overview This document defines configuration and operational parameters of IP Traffic Flow Security (IP-TFS). IP-TFS, defined in [RFC9347], defines a security association for tunnel mode IPsec with characteristics that improve traffic confidentiality and reduce bandwidth efficiency loss. These documents assume familiarity with the IPsec concepts described in [RFC4301]. IP-TFS uses tunnel mode to improve confidentiality by hiding inner packet identifiable information, packet size, and packet timing. IP- TFS provides a general capability allowing aggregation of multiple packets in uniform-size outer tunnel IPsec packets. It maintains the outer packet size by utilizing combinations of aggregating, padding, and fragmenting inner packets to fill out the IPsec outer tunnel packet.Zero byte paddingPadding is used to fill the packet when no data is available to send. This document specifies an extensible configuration model for IP-TFS. This version utilizes the capabilities of IP-TFS to configure fixed- size IP-TFS packets that are transmitted at a constant rate. This model is structured to allow for different types of operation through future augmentation. The IP-TFS YANG module augments the IPsec YANG module from [RFC9061]. IP-TFS makes use of IPsec tunnel mode and adds a small number of configuration items to IPsec tunnel mode. As defined in [RFC9347], any SA configured to use IP-TFS supports only IP-TFS packets, i.e., no mixed IPsec modes. The behavior for IP-TFS is controlled by the source. The self- describing format of an IP-TFS packet allows a sending side to adjust the packet size and timing independently from any receiver. Both directions are also independent, e.g., IP-TFS may be run only in one direction. This means that counters, which are created here for both directions, may be 0 or not updated in the case of an SA that uses IP-TFS only in on direction. Cases where IP-TFS statistics are active for one direction: * SA one direction - IP-TFS enabled * SA both directions - IP-TFS only enabled in one direction Case where IP-TFS statistics are active for both directions: * SA both directions - IP-TFS enable for both directions The IP-TFS model supports IP-TFS configuration and operational data. This YANG module supports configuration of fixed-size and fixed-rate packets, as well as elements that may be augmented to support future configuration. The protocol specification [RFC9347] goes beyond this simple, fixed mode of operation by defining a general format for any type of scheme. In this document, the outer IPsec packets can be sent with fixed or variable size (without padding). The configuration allows the fixed packet size to be determined by the path MTU. The fixed packet size can also be configured if a value lower than the path MTU is desired. Other configuration items include: Congestion Control: A congestion control setting to allow IP-TFS to reduce the packet rate when congestion is detected. Fixed-Rate Configuration: The IP-TFS tunnel rate can be configured by taking into account either layer 2 overhead or layer 3 overhead. Layer 3 overhead is the IP data rate, and layer 2 overhead is the rate of bits on the link. The combination of packet size and rate determines the nominal maximum bandwidth and the transmission interval when fixed-size packets are used. User Packet Fragmentation Control: While fragmentation is recommended for improved efficiency, a configuration is provided if users wish to observe the effect of no fragmentation on their data flows. The YANG operational data allows the readout of the configured parameters, as well as the per-SA statistics and error counters for IP-TFS. Per-SA IPsec packet statistics are provided as a feature, and per-SA IP-TFS-specific statistics are provided as another feature. Both sets of statistics augment the IPsec YANG modules with counters that allow observation of IP-TFS packet efficiency. IPsec YANG management objects are set in [RFC9061]. IP-TFS YANG augments the IKE and the IKE-less models. In these models, the Security Policy database entry and Security Association entry for an IPsec tunnel can be augmented with IP-TFS. In addition, this model uses YANG types defined in [RFC6991]. 3. YANG Management 3.1.

IANA Considerations 4.1. Updates to the IETF XML Registry Per this document, IANA has registered a URI in the "IETF XML Registry" [RFC3688] as follows. URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-ipsec-iptfs Registrant Contact: The IESG. XML: N/A; the requested URI is an XML namespace. 4.2. Updates to the YANG Module Names Registry Per this document, IANA has registered one YANG module in the "YANG Module Names" registry [RFC6020] as follows. Name: ietf-ipsec-iptfs Namespace: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-ipsec-iptfs Prefix: iptfs Reference: RFC 9348 5. 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 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.CertainThere are a number of data nodes defined in this YANG module that arewritable/creatable/deletable. These changes can enable, disable, and modify the behavior of IP-TFS; forwritable/creatable/deletable (i.e., config true, which is theimplications regardingdefault). These data nodes may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. Write operations (e.g., edit-config) to thesetypes of changes, consult [RFC9347], which definesdata nodes without proper protection can have a negative effect on network operations. These are thefunctionality. The relevantsubtreesorand data nodesare:and their sensitivity/vulnerability: ../traffic-flow-security: Enabling IP-TFS is controlled by setting the entries under traffic-flow-security in IKE or IKE-less models. IP-TFS is set either to be congestion sensitive or a fixed rate by setting parameters in this subtree.CertainSome of the readable data nodes in this YANG module may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments.While IP-TFS hides the traffic flows through the network, IP-TFS YANG statistics could reveal some information about traffic flows.
