<abstract>
<t>This document defines an information model and a data model for the I2RS Filter-based Routing Information Base (RIB)
Yang model. A routing system uses the Filter-based RIBto program FIB entries that process incoming
packets by matching on multiple fields within the packet and then performing a specified action on it.
The FB-RIB can also specify an action to forward the packet according to the FIB entries programmed
using the RIBs of its routing instance.</t>

<section anchor="intro" title="Introduction">
<t>The Interface to the Routing System (I2RS) <xref target="I-D.ietf-i2rs-architecture"></xref>
architecture provides dynamic read and write access to the information and state within the routing
elements. The I2RS client interacts with the I2RS agent in one or more network routing systems. </t>
<t> This document provides a yang module for the I2RS filter Based Routing Information Base
(FB-RIB) and describes the I2RS interaction with routing filters within a routing element.
</t>
<t>Filter-based routing is a technique used to make packet forwarding decisions
based on a filter that is matched to the incoming packets and the specified action.
It should be noted that that this is distinct from the static routes in the RIB
<xref target="I-D.ietf-i2rs-rib-info-model"></xref> where the routing is destination address based.
A Filter-based RIB entry specifies matches
on fields in a packet (which may include layer 2 fields, IP header fields, transport or
application fields) or size of the packet or interface received on.
The matches are contained in an ordered list of filters which
contain pairs of match condition-action (aka event-condition-action).
</t>
<t>(Note: Filter-based RIBs (FB-RIBs) operate only on the interface the
FB-RIB are configured on.)</t>
<t>
If all matches fail, default action is to forward the packet using FIB entries that were programmed
by the Routing Informational Base (RIB) manager described
in <xref target="I-D.ietf-i2rs-rib-info-model"></xref>.
</t>
<t>
Actions in the condition-action pair may impact forwarding or
set something in the packet that will impact forwarding.
Policy actions are typically applied before applying QoS constraints
since policy actions may override QoS constraint.
</t>
<t>
The Filter-Based RIB resides in ephemeral state as does the I2RS RIB and I2RS
topology models.
</t>
<t> A Filter-Based RIB (Routing Information Base) is contained in a routing
instance (defined in <xref target="I-D.ietf-i2rs-rib-info-model"></xref>).
It contains a list of filters (match-action conditions), a list of interface the filter-based
forwarding operates on.
</t>
<t> The filter based-RIB will event-condition-action policy (ECA) rules
based a set of policies specified by the I2RS FB-RIB. The filter-based
RIB may utilize policies defined by common IETF policy modules or
customer specific policies. The following policies are used in
this version of the yang module:
<list style="symbols">
<t> Access lists (ACLs) <xref target="I-D.ietf-netmod-acl-model"></xref>
(Note: The ACL Filters do not provide enough depth to support
all use cases for filter-based FIBS. These filters are
included for cases where this limited filters will work.
In early deployments of the FB-FIB, these filters may be
the only filters provided. ),
</t>
<t> Basic network filters <xref target="I-D.hares-i2rs-bnp-info-model"></xref>
</t>
</list>
</t>
<t>The Filter-Based routing may provide many benefits, including better
resource allocation, load balancing and QoS.</t>
<t> The I2RS use cases which benefit from Filter-Based Routing are:
<list style="symbols">
<t> Protocol independent Use cases and large flow use cases
described in <xref target="I-D.hares-i2rs-usecase-reqs-summary"></xref>.

</section>
<section title="Filter-Based-RIB module ">
<t> A Filter-Based RIB (FB-RIB)contains an ordered set of filter routes where each
filter-route is a match condition followed by an action. An FB-RIB is contained in a
routing-instance that is defined in <xref target="I-D.ietf-i2rs-rib-info-model"></xref>
and whose data modelling is done in <xref target="I-D.ietf-i2rs-rib-data-model"></xref>.
An FB-RIB has a list of interfaces that is a subset of the list of interfaces in the
routing-instance that it is contained in. An incoming packet on an interface belonging
to a FB-RIB is first handled by the FIB programmed using that FB-RIB.
If no match action succeeds, then the packet is forwarded using the FIB programmed using
the RIB of that routing instance.
</t>
<t>
An ordered set of filters implies that the insertion of a filter route into a FB-RIB
MUST provide the ability to insert a filter route at any specific position and
delete of a filter-based route at a specific position. The ability to change a filter route
at a specific position combines these two functions (delete an existing filter route
rule and add a new policy rule). </t>
<t>Each FB-RIB is contained within a routing instance, but
one routing instance (named by an INSTANCE_NAME) can contain multiple FB-RIBs.
Each routing instance is associated with a set of interfaces, a router-id,
and list of FB-RIBs. Each interface
can be associated with at most one FB RIB.
</t>
<t> The processing within the FB-RIB process
within the routing system is expected to do the following:
<list style="symbols">
<t> When a packet successfully matches match term/entry in a filter-route, the corresponding
rule-actions are applied.</t>
<t>If a packet does not match the match term/entry in the filter route, the filter route processing goes to the next
term/entry in the order, and looks for a match, within the current filter or goes to the
next filter in the list. This continues until either a filter route match term/entry is successfully
matched, or no more filters in the list exists. </t>
<t>If no match has been found within list of filters in FB-RIB list, then the packet will be
forwarded using the I2RS RIB specified by the FB-RIB if one exists. If no I2RS RIB is specified,
the packet will be discarded. </t>
