1. Introduction
This document describes a YANG data model [RFC7950] for routing
policy configuration based on operational usage and best practices in
a variety of service provider networks. The model is intended to be
vendor neutral to allow operators to manage policy configuration
consistently in environments with routers supplied by multiple
vendors.
The YANG modules in this document conform to the Network Management
Datastore Architecture (NMDA) [RFC8342].
1.1. Goals and Approach
This model does not aim to be feature complete; it is a subset of the
policy configuration parameters available in a variety of vendor
implementations but supports widely used constructs for managing how
routes are imported, exported, and modified across different routing
protocols. The model development approach has been to examine actual
policy configurations in use across several operator networks.
Hence, the focus is on enabling policy configuration capabilities and
structure that are in wide use.
Despite the differences in details of policy expressions and
conventions in various vendor implementations, the model reflects the
observation that a relatively simple condition-action approach can be
readily mapped to several existing vendor implementations and also
gives operators a familiar and straightforward way to express policy.
A side effect of this design decision is that other methods for
expressing policies are not considered.
Consistent with the goal to produce a data model that is vendor
neutral, only policy expressions that are deemed to be widely
available in prevalent implementations are included in the model.
Those configuration items that are only available from a single
implementation are omitted from the model with the expectation they
will be available in separate vendor-provided modules that augment
the current model.
2. Terminology and Notation
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.
Routing policy: A routing policy defines how routes are imported,
exported, modified, and advertised between routing protocol

3. Model Overview
The routing policy module has three main parts:
* A generic framework is provided to express policies as sets of
related conditions and actions. This includes match sets and
actions that are useful across many routing protocols.
* A structure that allows routing protocol models to add protocol-
specific policy conditions and actions through YANG augmentations
is also provided. There is a complete example of this for BGP
[RFC4271] policies in the proposed vendor-neutral BGP data model
[IDR-BGP-MODEL]. Appendix A provides an example of how an
augmentation for BGP policies might be accomplished. Note that
this section is not normative, as the BGP model is still evolving.
* Finally, a reusable grouping is defined for attaching import and
export rules in the context of routing configuration for different
protocols, Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) instances, etc.
This also enables the creation of policy chains and the expression
of default policy behavior. In this document, policy chains are
sequences of policy definitions that are applied in order
(described in Section 4).
The module makes use of the standard Internet types, such as IP
addresses, autonomous system numbers, etc., defined in RFC 6991
[RFC6991].
4. Route Policy Expression
Policies are expressed as a sequence of top-level policy definitions,
each of which consists of a sequence of policy statements. Policy
statements in turn consist of simple condition-action tuples.
Conditions may include multiple match or comparison operations, and
similarly, actions may include multiple changes to route attributes
or indicate a final disposition of accepting or rejecting the route.
This structure is shown below.
+--rw routing-policy
+--rw policy-definitions
+--ro match-modified-attributes? boolean
+--rw policy-definition* [name]
+--rw name string
+--rw statements
+--rw statement* [name]
+--rw name string
+--rw conditions
| ...
+--rw actions
...
4.1. Defined Sets for Policy Matching
The model provides a collection of generic sets that can be used for
matching in policy conditions. These sets are applicable for route
selection across multiple routing protocols. They may be further
augmented by protocol-specific models that have their own defined
sets. The defined sets include:
prefix sets: Each prefix set defines a set of IP prefixes, each with
an associated IP prefix and netmask range (or exact length).
neighbor sets: Each neighbor set defines a set of neighboring nodes
by their IP addresses. A neighbor set is used for selecting
routes based on the neighbors advertising the routes.
tag sets: Each tag set defines a set of generic tag values that can
be used in matches for selecting routes.
The model structure for defined sets is shown below.
+--rw routing-policy
+--rw defined-sets
| +--rw prefix-sets
| | +--rw prefix-set* [name]
| | +--rw name string
| | +--rw mode? enumeration
| | +--rw prefixes
| | +--rw prefix-list* [ip-prefix mask-length-lower
| | mask-length-upper]
| | +--rw ip-prefix inet:ip-prefix
| | +--rw mask-length-lower uint8
| | +--rw mask-length-upper uint8
| +--rw neighbor-sets
| | +--rw neighbor-set* [name]
| | +--rw name string
| | +--rw address* inet:ip-address
| +--rw tag-sets
| +--rw tag-set* [name]
| +--rw name string
| +--rw tag-value* tag-type
4.2. Policy Conditions
Policy statements consist of a set of conditions and actions (either
of which may be empty). Conditions are used to match route
attributes against a defined set (e.g., a prefix set) or to compare
attributes against a specific value.
Match conditions may be further modified using the match-set-options
configuration, which allows network operators to change the behavior
of a match. Three options are supported:
'all': Match is true only if the given value matches all members of
the set.
'any': Match is true if the given value matches any member of the
set.
'invert': Match is true if the given value does not match any member
of the given set.
Not all options are appropriate for matching against all defined sets
(e.g., match 'all' in a prefix set does not make sense). In the
model, a restricted set of match options is used where applicable.
Comparison conditions may similarly use options to change how route
attributes should be tested, e.g., for equality or inequality,
against a given value.
While most policy conditions will be added by individual routing
protocol models via augmentation, this routing policy model includes
several generic match conditions and the ability to test which
protocol or mechanism installed a route (e.g., BGP, IGP, static,
etc.). The conditions included in the model are shown below.
+--rw routing-policy
+--rw policy-definitions
+--rw policy-definition* [name]
+--rw name string
+--rw statements
+--rw statement* [name]
+--rw conditions
| +--rw call-policy?
| +--rw source-protocol?
| +--rw match-interface
| | +--rw interface?
| +--rw match-prefix-set
| | +--rw prefix-set?
| | +--rw match-set-options?
| +--rw match-neighbor-set
| | +--rw neighbor-set?
| +--rw match-tag-set
| | +--rw tag-set?
| | +--rw match-set-options?
| +--rw match-route-type
| +--rw route-type*
4.3. Policy Actions
When policy conditions are satisfied, policy actions are used to set
various attributes of the route being processed or to indicate the
final disposition of the route, i.e., accept or reject.
Similar to policy conditions, the routing policy model includes
generic actions in addition to the basic route disposition actions.
These are shown below.
+--rw routing-policy
+--rw policy-definitions
+--rw policy-definition* [name]
+--rw statements
+--rw statement* [name]
+--rw actions
+--rw policy-result? policy-result-type
+--rw set-metric
| +--rw metric-modification?
| | metric-modification-type
| +--rw metric? uint32
+--rw set-metric-type
| +--rw metric-type? identityref
+--rw set-route-level
| +--rw route-level? identityref
+--rw set-route-preference? uint16
+--rw set-tag? tag-type
+--rw set-application-tag? tag-type
4.4. Policy Subroutines
Policy 'subroutines' (or nested policies) are supported by allowing
policy statement conditions to reference other policy definitions
using the call-policy configuration. Called policies apply their
conditions and actions before returning to the calling policy
statement and resuming evaluation. The outcome of the called policy
affects the evaluation of the calling policy. If the called policy
results in an accept-route, then the subroutine returns an effective
Boolean true value to the calling policy. For the calling policy,
this is equivalent to a condition statement evaluating to a true
value, thus the calling party continues in its evaluation of the
policy (see Section 5). Note that the called policy may also modify
attributes of the route in its action statements. Similarly, a
reject-route action returns false, and the calling policy evaluation
will be affected accordingly. When the end of the subroutine policy
statements is reached, the default route disposition action is
returned (i.e., Boolean false for reject-route). Consequently, a
subroutine cannot explicitly accept or reject a route. Rather, the
called policy returns Boolean true if its outcome is accept-route or
Boolean false if its outcome is reject-route. Route acceptance or
rejection is solely determined by the top-level policy.
Note that the called policy may itself call other policies (subject
to implementation limitations). The model does not prescribe a
nesting depth because this varies among implementations. For
example, an implementation may only support a single level of
subroutine recursion. As with any routing policy construction, care
must be taken with nested policies to ensure that the effective
return value results in the intended behavior. Nested policies are a
convenience in many routing policy constructions, but creating
policies nested beyond a small number of levels (e.g., two to three)
is discouraged. Also, implementations MUST perform validation to
ensure that there is no recursion among nested routing policies.
5. Policy Evaluation
Evaluation of each policy definition proceeds by evaluating its
individual policy statements in the order that they are defined.
When all the condition statements in a policy statement are
satisfied, the corresponding action statements are executed. If the
actions include either accept-route or reject-route actions,
evaluation of the current policy definition stops, and no further
policy statement is evaluated. If there are multiple policies in the
policy chain, subsequent policies are not evaluated. Policy chains
are sequences of policy definitions (as described in Section 4).
If the conditions are not satisfied, then evaluation proceeds to the
next policy statement. If none of the policy statement conditions
are satisfied, then evaluation of the current policy definition
stops, and the next policy definition in the chain is evaluated.
When the end of the policy chain is reached, the default route
disposition action is performed (i.e., reject-route unless an
alternate default action is specified for the chain).
Whether the route's pre-policy attributes are used for testing policy
statement conditions is dependent on the implementation-specific
value of the match-modified-attributes leaf. If match-modified-
attributes is false and actions modify route attributes, these
modifications are not used for policy statement conditions.
Conversely, if match-modified-attributes is true and actions modify
the policy application-specific attributes, the attributes as
modified by the policy are used for policy condition statements.
6. Applying Routing Policy
Routing policy is applied by defining and attaching policy chains in
various routing contexts. Policy chains are sequences of policy
definitions (described in Section 4). They can be referenced from
different contexts. For example, a policy chain could be associated
with a routing protocol and used to control its interaction with its
protocol peers, or it could be used to control the interaction
between a routing protocol and the local routing information base. A
policy chain has an associated direction (import or export) with
respect to the context in which it is referenced.
The routing policy model defines an apply-policy grouping that can be
imported and used by other models. As shown below, it allows
definition of import and export policy chains, as well as specifies
the default route disposition to be used when no policy definition in
the chain results in a final decision.
+--rw apply-policy
| +--rw import-policy*
| +--rw default-import-policy? default-policy-type
| +--rw export-policy*
| +--rw default-export-policy? default-policy-type
The default policy defined by the model is to reject the route for
both import and export policies.

8. 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.
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 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:
/routing-policy/defined-sets/prefix-sets
Modification to prefix sets could result in a Denial-of-Service
(DoS) attack. An attacker may try to modify prefix sets and
redirect or drop traffic. Redirection of traffic could be used as
part of a more elaborate attack to either collect sensitive
information or masquerade a service. Additionally, a control
plane DoS attack could be accomplished by allowing a large number
of routes to be leaked into a routing protocol domain (e.g., BGP).
/routing-policy/defined-sets/neighbor-sets
Modification to the neighbor sets could be used to mount a DoS
attack or more elaborate attack as with prefix sets. For example,
a DoS attack could be mounted by changing the neighbor set from
which routes are accepted.
/routing-policy/defined-sets/tag-sets
Modification to the tag sets could be used to mount a DoS attack.
Routes with certain tags might be redirected or dropped. The
implications are similar to prefix sets and neighbor sets.
However, the attack may be more difficult to detect as the routing
policy usage of route tags and intent must be understood to
recognize the breach. Conversely, the implications of prefix set
or neighbor set modification are easier to recognize.
/routing-policy/policy-definitions/policy-
definition/statements/statement/conditions
Modification to the conditions could be used to mount a DoS attack
or other attack. An attacker may change a policy condition and
redirect or drop traffic. As with prefix sets, neighbor sets, or
tag sets, traffic redirection could be used as part of a more
elaborate attack.
/routing-policy/policy-definitions/policy-
definition/statements/statement/actions
Modification to actions could be used to mount a DoS attack or
other attack. Traffic may be redirected or dropped. As with
prefix sets, neighbor sets, or tag sets, traffic redirection could
be used as part of a more elaborate attack. Additionally, route
attributes may be changed to mount a second-level attack that is
more difficult to detect.
Some of the readable data nodes in the YANG module may be considered
sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. It is thus
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:
/routing-policy/defined-sets/prefix-sets
Knowledge of these data nodes can be used to ascertain which local
prefixes are susceptible to a DoS attack.
/routing-policy/defined-sets/neighbor-sets
Knowledge of these data nodes can be used to ascertain local
neighbors against whom to mount a DoS attack.
/routing-policy/policy-definitions/policy-definition/statements/
Knowledge of these data nodes can be used to attack the local
router with a DoS attack. Additionally, policies and their
attendant conditions and actions should be considered proprietary
and disclosure could be used to ascertain partners, customers, and
suppliers. Furthermore, the policies themselves could represent
intellectual property and disclosure could diminish their
corresponding business advantage.
Routing policy configuration has a significant impact on network
operations, and as such, other YANG data models that reference
routing policies are also susceptible to vulnerabilities relating to
the YANG data nodes specified above.

Appendix A. Routing Protocol-Specific Policies
Routing models that require the ability to apply routing policy may
augment the routing policy model with protocol or other specific
policy configuration. The routing policy model assumes that
additional defined sets, conditions, and actions may all be added by
other models.
The example below illustrates how another data model can augment
parts of this routing policy data model. It uses specific examples
from draft-ietf-idr-bgp-model-09 to show in a concrete manner how the
different pieces fit together. This example is not normative with
respect to [IDR-BGP-MODEL]. The model similarly augments BGP-
specific conditions and actions in the corresponding sections of the
routing policy model. In the example below, the XPath prefix "bp:"
specifies import from the ietf-bgp-policy sub-module and the XPath
prefix "bt:" specifies import from the ietf-bgp-types sub-module
[IDR-BGP-MODEL].

Appendix B. Policy Examples
Below, we show examples of XML-encoded configuration data using the
routing policy and BGP models to illustrate both how policies are
defined and how they can be applied. Note that the XML
[W3C.REC-xml11] has been simplified for readability.
The following example shows how prefix set and tag set can be
defined. The policy condition is to match a prefix set and a tag
set, and the action is to accept routes that match the condition.
<config xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0">

In the following example, all routes in the RIB that have been
learned from OSPF advertisements corresponding to OSPF intra-area and
inter-area route types should get advertised into IS-IS level 2
advertisements.
