<t>
This document defines a YANG data model for the configuration
and identification of the management system of a device.
</t>
</abstract>
</front>
<middle>
<section title="Introduction">
<t>
This document defines a YANG <xref target="RFC6020"/> data model for the
configuration and identification of the management system of a device.
</t>
<t>
Devices that are managed by NETCONF and perhaps other mechanisms
have common properties that need to be configured and monitored
in a standard way.
</t>
<t>
The YANG module defined in this document provides the
following features:
</t>
<t>
<list style="symbols">
<t>
system administrative data configuration
</t>
<t>
system identification monitoring
</t>
<t>
system time-of-day configuration and monitoring
</t>
<t>
user authentication configuration
</t>
<t>
local users configuration
</t>
</list>
</t>
<section title="Terminology">
<t>
The keywords "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, <xref target="RFC2119"/>.
</t>
<section title="Terms">
<t>
The following terms are used within this document:
</t>
<t>
<list style="symbols">
<t>
system: This term refers to the embodiment
of the entire set of management interfaces that a
single NETCONF server is supporting
at a given moment. The set of physical entities
managed by a single NETCONF server can be static
or it can change dynamically.
</t>
</list>
</t>
</section>
</section>
</section>
<section title="Objectives">
<section title="System Identification">
<t>
There are many common properties used to identify devices,
operating systems, software versions, etc. that need to
be supported in the system data module.
These objects are defined
as operational data and intended to be specific to the
device vendor.
</t>
<t>
Some user-configurable administrative strings are also
provided such as the system location and description.
</t>
</section>
<section title="System Time Management">
<t>
The management of the date and time used by the system
need to be supported. Use of one or more NTP servers
to automatically set the system date and time need to be possible.
Utilization of the Timezone database <xref target="RFC6557"/>
also need to be supported.
</t>
</section>
<section title="User Authentication">
<t>
The authentication mechanism need to support password authentication over
RADIUS, to support deployment scenarios with centralized
authentication servers. Additionally, local users need to be supported,
for scenarios when no centralized authentication server exists, or for
situations where the centralized authentication server cannot be
reached from the device.
</t>
<t>
Since the mandatory transport protocol for NETCONF is SSH
<xref target="RFC6242"/> the authentication model need to support
SSH's "publickey" and "password" authentication methods <xref target="RFC4252"/>.
</t>
<t>
The model for authentication configuration should be flexible enough
to support authentication methods defined by other standard documents
or by vendors.
</t>

+--rw timeout? uint8
+--rw attempts? uint8
]]></artwork>
</figure>
</section>
<section title="User Authentication Model">
<t>
This document defines three authentication methods for use with
NETCONF:
</t>
<t>
<list style="symbols">
<t>
publickey for local users over SSH
</t>
<t>
password for local users over any transport
</t>
<t>
password for RADIUS users over any transport
</t>
</list>
</t>
<t>
Additional methods can be defined by other standard documents or by
vendors.
</t>
<t>
This document defines two optional YANG features, "local‑users" and
"radius‑authentication", which the server advertises to indicate
support for configuring local users on the device, and support for
using RADIUS for authentication, respectively.
</t>
<t>
The authentication parameters defined in this document are primarily
used to configure authentication of NETCONF users, but MAY also be
used by other interfaces, e.g., a Command Line Interface or a
Web-based User Interface.
</t>
<t>
The data model for user authentication has the following structure:
</t>
<figure>
<artwork><![CDATA[
+--rw system
+--rw authentication
+--rw user-authentication-order* identityref
+--rw user [name]
+--rw name string
+--rw password? crypt-hash
+--rw ssh-key [name]
+--rw name string
+--rw algorithm? string
+--rw key-data? binary
]]></artwork>
</figure>
<section title="SSH Public Key Authentication">
<t>
If the NETCONF server advertises the "local‑users" feature,
configuration of local users and their SSH public keys is supported in
the /system/authentication/user list.
</t>
<t>
Public key authentication is requested by the SSH client. If the
"local‑users" feature is supported, then when a NETCONF client starts
an SSH session towards the server using the "publickey" authentication
"method name" <xref target="RFC4252"/>, the SSH server looks up the user name given
in the SSH authentication request in the /system/authentication/user
list, and verifies the key as described in <xref target="RFC4253"/>.
</t>
</section>
<section title="Local User Password Authentication">
<t>
If the NETCONF server advertises the "local‑users" feature,
configuration of local users and their passwords is supported in the
/system/authentication/user list.
</t>
<t>
For NETCONF transport protocols that support password authentication,
the leaf-list "user‑authentication‑order" is used to control if local
user password authentication should be used.
</t>
<t>
In SSH, password authentication is requested by the client. Other
NETCONF transport protocols MAY also support password authentication.
</t>
<t>
When local user password authentication is requested, the NETCONF
transport looks up the user name provided by the client in the
/system/ authentication/user list, and verifies the password.
</t>
</section>
<section title="RADIUS Password Authentication">
<t>
If the NETCONF server advertises the "radius‑authentication" feature,
the device supports user authentication using RADIUS.
</t>
<t>
For NETCONF transport protocols that support password authentication,
the leaf-list "user‑authentication‑order" is used to control if RADIUS
password authentication should be used.
</t>
<t>
In SSH, password authentication is requested by the client. Other
NETCONF transport protocols MAY also support password authentication.
</t>
</section>
</section>
<section title="System Control">
<t>
Two protocol operations are included to restart or shutdown
the system. The 'system‑restart' operation can be used to
restart the entire system (not just the NETCONF server).
The 'system‑shutdown' operation can be used to power off
the entire system.

typedef crypt-hash {
type string {
pattern "$0$.*|$(1|5|6)$[a-zA-Z0-9./]{2,16}$.*";
}
description
"The crypt-hash type is used to store passwords using
a hash function. This type is implemented in various UNIX
systems as the function crypt(3).
When a clear text value is set to a leaf of this type, the
server calculates a password hash, and stores the result
in the datastore. Thus, the password is never stored in
clear text.
When a leaf of this type is read, the stored password hash is
returned.
A value of this type matches one of the forms:
$0$<clear text password>
$<id>$<salt>$<password hash>
The '$0$' prefix signals that the value is clear text. When
such a value is received by the server, a hash value is
calculated, and the string '$<id>$<salt>$' is prepended to the
result, where <salt> is a random 2-16 characters long salt
used to generate the digest. This value is stored in the
configuration data store.
If a value starting with '$<id>$<salt>$' is received, the
server knows that the value already represents a hashed value,
and stores it as is in the data store.
When a server needs to verify a password given by a user, it
finds the stored password hash string for that user, extracts
the salt, and calculates the hash with the salt and given
password as input. If the calculated hash value is the same
as the stored value, the password given by the client is
correct.
This type defines the following hash functions:
id | hash function | feature
---+---------------+-------------------
1 | MD5 | crypt-hash-md5
5 | SHA-256 | crypt-hash-sha-256
6 | SHA-512 | crypt-hash-sha-512
The server indicates support for the different hash functions
by advertising the corresponding feature.";

<section title="Security Considerations">
<t>
The YANG module defined in this memo is designed to be accessed
via the NETCONF protocol <xref target="RFC6241"/>. The lowest NETCONF layer is
the secure transport layer and the mandatory-to-implement secure
transport is SSH <xref target="RFC6242"/>.
</t>
<t>
There are a number of data nodes defined in this YANG module
which 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:
</t>
<t>
<list style="symbols">
<t>
/system/clock/timezone: This choice contains the objects used to
control the timezone used by the device.
</t>
<t>
/system/ntp: This container contains the objects used to
control the Network Time Protocol servers used by the device.
</t>
<t>
/system/dns: This container contains the objects used to
control the Domain Name System servers used by the device.
</t>
<t>
/system/radius: This container contains the objects used to
control the Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service
servers used by the device.
</t>
<t>
/system/authentication/user-authentication-order: This leaf
controls how user login attempts are authenticated by the device.
</t>
<t>
/system/authentication/user: This list contains the
local users enabled on the system.
</t>
</list>
</t>
<t>
Some of the readable data nodes in this 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:
</t>
<t>
<list style="symbols">
<t>
/system/platform: This container has objects which may help
identify the specific NETCONF server and/or operating system
implementation used on the device.
</t>
</list>
</t>
<t>
Some of the RPC operations in this YANG module may be considered
sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. It is thus
important to control access to these operations. These are the
operations and their sensitivity/vulnerability:
</t>
<t>
<list style="symbols">
<t>
set-current-datetime: Changes the current date and time on the device.
</t>
<t>
system-restart: Reboots the device.
</t>
<t>
system-shutdown: Shuts down the device.

<t>Time zone information serves as a basic protocol element in protocols, such as the calendaring suite and DHCP. The Time Zone (TZ) Database specifies the indices used in various protocols, as well as their semantic meanings, for all localities throughout the world. This database has been meticulously maintained and distributed free of charge by a group of volunteers, coordinated by a single volunteer who is now planning to retire. This memo specifies procedures involved with maintenance of the TZ database and associated code, including how to submit proposed updates, how decisions for inclusion of those updates are made, and the selection of a designated expert by and for the time zone community. The intent of this memo is, to the extent possible, to document existing practice and provide a means to ease succession of the database maintainers. This memo documents an Internet Best Current Practice.</t></abstract></front>

<t>The standardization of network configuration interfaces for use with the Network Configuration Protocol (NETCONF) requires a structured and secure operating environment that promotes human usability and multi-vendor interoperability.
