Network Configuration Protocol System Notifications
draft-ietf-netconf-system-notifications-03
Abstract
The NETCONF protocol provides mechanisms to manipulate configuration
datastores. However, client applications often need to be aware of
common NETCONF system events such as a change in NETCONF
capabilities, which may impact management applications. Standard
mechanisms are needed to support the monitoring of the NETCONF system
events within the NETCONF server. This document defines a YANG
module which allows a NETCONF client to receive notifications for
some common events.

Internet-Draft NETCONF System Notifications March 2011
1. Introduction
The NETCONF protocol [I-D.ietf-netconf-4741bis] provides mechanisms
to manipulate configuration datastores. However, client applications
often need to be aware of common NETCONF system events such as a
change in NETCONF capabilities, which may impact management
applications. Standard mechanisms are needed to support the
monitoring of the NETCONF system events within the NETCONF server.
This document defines a YANG module [RFC6020] which allows a NETCONF
client to receive notifications for some common events.
1.1. Terminology
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].
The following terms are defined in [I-D.ietf-netconf-4741bis]:
o client
o datastore
o operation
o server
The following terms are defined in [RFC5277]:
o event
o stream
o subscription
The following term is defined in [RFC6020]:
o data node
2. YANG Module for NETCONF System Notifications
2.1. Overview
The YANG module defined within this document specifies a small number
of notification event messages for use within the 'NETCONF' stream,
and accessible to clients via the subscription mechanism in
[RFC5277].
These notifications pertain to the NETCONF portion of the managed
system, not the entire system.
The YANG language is defined in [RFC6020].

Internet-Draft NETCONF System Notifications March 2011
2.1.1. Notifications
This module defines some events for the 'NETCONF' stream to notify a
client application that the NETCONF server state has changed.
o netconf-config-change: Generated when the NETCONF server detects
that the <running> or <startup> configuration datastore has
changed. Summarizes each edit being reported.
o netconf-capability-change: Generated when the NETCONF server
capabilities are changed. Indicates which capabilities have been
added, deleted, and/or modified.
o netconf-session-start: Generated when a NETCONF session is
started. Indicates the identity of the user that started the
session.
o netconf-session-end: Generated when a NETCONF server detects that
a session has terminated. Indicates the identity of the user that
owned the session, and why the session was terminated.
o netconf-confirmed-commit: Generated when a NETCONF confirmed-
commit event occurs. Indicates the current state of the
confirmed-commit operation in progress.

3. IANA Considerations
This document registers one XML namespace URN in the 'IETF XML
registry', following the format defined in [RFC3688].
URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-netconf-system-notifications
Registrant Contact: The NETCONF WG of the IETF.
XML: N/A, the requested URI is an XML namespace.
This document registers one module name in the 'YANG Module Names'
registry, defined in [RFC6020] .
name: ietf-netconf-system-notifications
prefix: ncsys
namespace:
urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-netconf-system-notifications
RFC: XXXX // RFC Ed.: replace XXXX and remove this comment
4. Security Considerations
This document defines a YANG module for reporting of particular
system events. Although unlikely, it is possible that data obtained
from this module could be used in an attack of some kind, although no
specific information in this module is considered sensitive.
TBD: follow Security Consideration guidelines from new template text.

Appendix A. Change Log
-- RFC Ed.: remove this section before publication.
A.1. 02-03
Renamed module back to NETCONF system notifications. The module is
now ietf-netconf-system-notifications. The namespace and prefix are
now changed as well.
Leaf user-name is now username, and is now mandatory, to be
consistent with netconf monitoring module.
Leaf remote-host is now source-host to be consistent with netconf
monitoring module.
The changed-by choice (server-or-user) is now mandatory.
The netconf-config-change description was updated and leaf target-
database is now named target-datastore.
Term 'database' changed to term 'datastore' in text.
netconf-confirmed-commit: changed uses common-session-parms to use
when-stmt not refine-stmt.
netconf-capability-change: updated description text.
Bierman Expires September 10, 2011 [Page 12]
Internet-Draft NETCONF System Notifications March 2011
A.2. 01-02
Renamed module NETCONF Events instead of NETCONF system
notifications. Note that ietf-netconf-notifications is being
reserved for the XML content defined in RFC 5277.
Made changes based on mailing list comments and latest WG consensus.
Filled in IANA section.
A.3. 00-01
Removed sys-startup notification.
Make changed-by into a grouping, and added usage to sys-config-change
notification.
Added target-database leaf to sys-config-change to distinguish
between running and startup changes.
Removed 'bad-start' from termination-reason leaf in sys-session-end
notification.
A.4. 00
Initial version, based on
draft-bierman-netconf-system-monitoring-00.txt.
