1. Introduction

This document defines a YANG data model to describe microwave and millimeter-wave radio links in a network topology (hereafter, "microwave" is used to simplify the text). The YANG data model describes radio links, supporting carrier(s), and the associated carrier termination points [RFC8561]. A carrier is a single link providing transport capacity over the air. It is typically defined by its transmitting and receiving frequencies. A radio link provides the transport capacity of the supporting carriers in aggregated and/or protected configurations, which can be used to carry traffic on higher topology layers such as Ethernet and Time-Division Multiplexing (TDM). The model augments the YANG Data Model for Traffic Engineering (TE) Topologies defined in [RFC8795], which is based on A YANG Data Model for Network Topologies defined in [RFC8345].

The microwave point-to-point radio technology provides connectivity on Layer 0 or Layer 1 (L0/L1) over a radio link between two termination points using one or several supporting carriers in aggregated or protected configurations. That application of microwave technology cannot be used to perform cross-connection or switching of the traffic to create network connectivity across multiple microwave radio links. Instead, a payload of traffic on higher topology layers, normally Layer 2 (L2) Ethernet, is carried over the microwave radio link. When the microwave radio link is terminated at the endpoints, cross-connection and switching can be performed on that higher layer creating connectivity across multiple supporting microwave radio links.

The microwave topology model is expected to be used between a Provisioning Network Controller (PNC) and a Multi-Domain Service Coordinator (MDSC) [RFC8453]. Examples of use cases that can be supported are:

  1. Correlation between microwave radio links and the supported links on higher topology layers (e.g., an L2 Ethernet topology). This information can be used to understand how changes in the performance/status of a microwave radio link affect traffic on higher layers.

  2. Propagation of relevant characteristics of a microwave radio link, such as bandwidth, to higher topology layers, where it could be used as a criterion when configuring and optimizing a path for a connection or service through the network end to end.

  3. Optimization of the microwave radio link configurations on a network level, with the purpose to minimize overall interference and/or maximize the overall capacity provided by the links.

2.3. Relationship with Client Topology Model

A microwave radio link carries a payload of traffic on higher topology layers, normally L2 Ethernet. The leafs supporting-network, supporting-node, supporting-link, and supporting-termination-point in the generic YANG module for Network Topologies [RFC8345] are expected to be used to model a relationship or dependency from higher topology layers to a supporting microwave radio link topology layer. Appendix A includes JSON examples of an L2 Ethernet link transported over one supporting microwave link.

2.4. Applicability of the Data Model for Traffic Engineering (TE) Topologies

Since microwave is a point-to-point radio technology, a majority of the leafs in the Data Model for Traffic Engineering (TE) Topologies [RFC8795] augmented by the microwave topology model are not applicable. Examples of which leafs are considered applicable can be found in Appendices A and B in this document.

In the more specific context of the microwave-specific augmentations of te-topology, the admin-status, and oper-status leafs (from te-topology) are only applicable to microwave carriers (in the mw-link tree); they are not applicable to microwave radio links. Radio links are instead enabled or disabled in the constituent carriers. Furthermore, the status leafs related to mw-tp can be used with inter-domain links and when the status of only one side of the link is known. However, since microwave is a point-to-point technology where both ends normally belong to the same domain, it is not expected to be applicable in normal cases.

3. Security Considerations

The YANG module specified in this document defines schemas 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 [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.

The YANG module specified in this document imports and augments the ietf-network and ietf-network-topology models defined in [RFC8345]. The security considerations from [RFC8345] are applicable to the module in this document.

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). These data nodes can 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:

4. IANA Considerations

IANA has assigned a new URI from the "IETF XML Registry" [RFC3688] as follows:

URI:

IANA has recorded the YANG module names in the "YANG Module Names" registry [RFC6020] as follows:

Appendix A. Microwave Topology Model with Base Topology Models

The tree below shows an example of the relevant leafs for a complete Microwave Topology Model including the augmented Network Topology Model defined in [RFC8345] and the Traffic Engineering (TE) Topologies model defined in [RFC8795]. There are also JSON-based instantiations of the Microwave Topology Model for a couple of small network examples.

A.1. Instance Data for 2+0 Mode for a Bonded Configuration

An L2 network with a supporting microwave network, showing a 2+0 microwave configuration is provided below. The num-bonded-carriers = 2, and the num-protecting-carriers = 0. This means both carriers are active, so there is no redundancy and there is more capacity. The JSON encoding of the 2+0 example data follows:

A.2. Instance Data for 1+1 Mode for a Protected Configuration

An L2 network with a supporting microwave network, showing a 1+1 microwave configuration is provided below. The num-bonded-carriers = 1, and the num-protecting-carriers = 1. This means there is a standby carrier protecting the active carrier. The JSON encoding of the 1+1 example data follows:

Appendix B. Microwave Topology Model with Example Extensions

This non-normative appendix provides examples of how the Microwave Topology Model can be used with the interface reference topology (ifref) [YANG-IF-REF-TOPO] and the bandwidth-availability-topology (bwa) [YANG-BWA-TOPO] models. There is also a snippet of JSON to show geolocation information instance data. When the JSON files have long lines, the long lines are wrapped as described in [RFC8792].

The tree below shows an example of the relevant leafs for a complete Microwave Topology Model including interface reference topology (ifref) [YANG-IF-REF-TOPO] and bandwidth-availability-topology (bwa) [YANG-BWA-TOPO] models.

Figure 4: Microwave Topology with Extensions Tree

Microwave is a transport technology that can be used to transport client services, such as L2 Ethernet links. When an L2 link is transported over a single supporting microwave radio link, the topologies could be as shown below. Note that the figure just shows an example: there might be other possibilities to demonstrate such a topology. The example of the instantiation encoded in JSON is using only a selected subset of the leafs from the L2 topology model [RFC8944]. The example below uses Figure 3 and adds the interface-related information.

Node N1 Interfaces tp-to-interface-path L2-N1-TP1 L2Interface1 tp-to-interface-path mw-N1-RLTP1 RLT-1 tp-to-interface-path mw-N1-CTP1 CT-1 tp-to-interface-path mw-N1-CTP3 CT-3 Node N2 Interfaces tp-to-interface-path L2-N2-TP2 L2Interface2 tp-to-interface-path mw-N2-RLTP2 RLT-2 tp-to-interface-path mw-N2-CTP2 CT-2 tp-to-interface-path mw-N2-CTP4 CT-4

B.1. Instance Data for 2+0 Mode

An L2 network with a supporting microwave network, including microwave-topology (mw) and bandwidth-availability-topology (bwa) models as well as the reference to the associated interface management information, is encoded in JSON as follows:

B.2. Instance Data for Geolocation Information

This example provides a JSON snippet that shows geolocation information.

   "node": [
      {
         "node-id": "mw-N1",

         ...

         "ietf-te-topology:te" : {
