Introduction Access Control List (ACL) is one of the basic elements to configure device forwarding behavior. It is used in many networking concepts such as Policy Based Routing, Firewalls etc. An ACL is an ordered set of rules that is used to filter traffic on a networking device. Each rule is represented by an Access Control Entry (ACE). Each ACE has a group of match criteria and a group of action criteria. The match criteria consist of a tuple of packet header match criteria and can have metadata match criteria as well. o Packet header matches apply to fields visible in the packet such as address or class of service or port numbers. Bogdanovic, et al. Expires January 9, 2017 [Page 2] Internet-Draft ACL YANG model July 2016 o In case vendor suppors it, metadata matches apply to fields associated with the packet but not in the packet header such as input interface or overall packet length The actions specify what to do with the packet when the matching criteria is met. These actions are any operations that would apply to the packet, such as counting, policing, or simply forwarding.The list of potential actions is endless depending on the innovations of the networked devices. Access Control List is also widely knowns as ACL (pronounce as [ak-uh l]) or Access List. In this document, Access Control List, ACL and Access List are interchangeable. 1.1.

Problem Statement This document defines a YANG [RFC6020] data model for the configuration of ACLs. It is very important that model can be easily reused between vendors and between applications. ACL implementations in every device may vary greatly in terms of the filter constructs and actions that they support. Therefore this draft proposes a simple model that can be augmented by standard extensions and vendor proprietary models. Bogdanovic, et al. Expires January 9, 2017 [Page 3] Internet-Draft ACL YANG model July 2016 3. Design of the ACL Model Although different vendors have different ACL data models, there is a common understanding of what access control list (ACL) is. A network system usually have a list of ACLs, and each ACL contains an ordered list of rules, also known as access list entries - ACEs. Each ACE has a group of match criteria and a group of action criteria. The match criteria consist of packet header matching. It as also possible for ACE to match on metadata, if supported by the vendor. Packet header matching applies to fields visible in the packet such as address or class of service or port numbers. Metadata matching applies to fields associated with the packet, but not in the packet header such as input interface, packet length, or source or destination prefix length. The actions can be any sort of operation from logging to rate limiting or dropping to simply forwarding. Actions on the first matching ACE are applied with no processing of subsequent ACEs. The model also includes a container to hold overall operational state for each ACL and operational state for each ACE. One ACL can be applied to multiple targets within the device, such as interfaces of a networked device, applications or features running in the device, etc. When applied to interfaces of a networked device, the ACL is applied in a direction which indicates if it should be applied to packet entering (input) or leaving the device (output). An example in the appendix shows how to express it in YANG model. This draft tries to address the commonalities between all vendors and create a common model, which can be augmented with proprietary models. The base model is very simple and with this design we hope to achieve needed flexibility for each vendor to extend the base model. 3.1. ACL Modules There are two YANG modules in the model. The first module, "ietf- access-control-list", defines generic ACL aspects which are common to all ACLs regardless of their type or vendor. In effect, the module can be viewed as providing a generic ACL "superclass". It imports the second module, "ietf-packet-fields". The match container in "ietf-access-control-list" uses groupings in "ietf-packet-fields". If there is a need to define new "matches" choice, such as IPFIX [RFC5101], the container "matches" can be augmented. Bogdanovic, et al.

IETF Access Contorl List module "ietf-access-control-list" is the standard top level module for access lists. The "access-lists" container stores a list of "acl". Each "acl" has information identifying the access list by a name("acl-name") and a list("access-list-entries") of rules associated with the "acl-name". Each of the entries in the list("access-list-entries"), indexed by the string "rule-name", has containers defining "matches" and "actions". The "matches" define criteria used to identify patterns in "ietf-packet-fields". The "actions" define behavior to undertake once a "match" has been identified. file "ietf-access-control-list@2016-07-08.yang" module ietf-access-control-list { yang-version 1.1; namespace "urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-access-control-list"; prefix acl; import ietf-yang-types { prefix yang; } import ietf-packet-fields { prefix packet-fields; } organization "IETF NETMOD (NETCONF Data Modeling Language) Working Group"; contact "WG Web: http://tools.ietf.org/wg/netmod/ WG List: netmod@ietf.org WG Chair: Juergen Schoenwaelder j.schoenwaelder@jacobs-university.de WG Chair: Tom Nadeau tnadeau@lucidvision.com Editor: Dean Bogdanovic ivandean@gmail.com Editor: Kiran Agrahara Sreenivasa kkoushik@cisco.com Editor: Lisa Huang lyihuang16@gmail.com Editor: Dana Blair dblair@cisco.com"; description "This YANG module defines a component that describing the configuration of Access Control Lists (ACLs).

An ACL Example Requirement: Deny All traffic from 10.10.10.1/24. Here is the acl configuration xml for this Access Control List: Bogdanovic, et al. Expires January 9, 2017 [Page 14] Internet-Draft ACL YANG model July 2016 sample-ipv4-acl ipv4-acl rule1 10.10.10.1/24 The acl and aces can be described in CLI as the following: access-list ip sample-ip-acl deny tcp 10.10.10.1/24 any 4.4. Port Range Usage Example When a lower-port and an upper-port are both present, it represents a range between lower-port and upper-port with both the lower-port and upper-port are included. When only a lower-port presents, it represents a single port. With the follow XML snippet: 16384 16387 This represents source ports 16384,16385, 16386, and 16387. With the follow XML snippet: Bogdanovic, et al. Expires January 9, 2017 [Page 15] Internet-Draft ACL YANG model July 2016 16384 65535 This represents source ports greater than/equal to 16384. With the follow XML snippet: 21 This represents port 21. 5. Linux nftables As Linux platform is becoming more popular as networking platform, the Linux data model is changing. Previously ACLs in Linux were highly protocol specific and different utilities were used (iptables, ip6tables, arptables, ebtables), so each one had separate data model. Recently, this has changed and a single utility, nftables, has been developed. With a single application, it has a single data model for filewall filters and it follows very similarly to the ietf-access- control list module proposed in this draft. The nftables support input and output ACEs and each ACE can be defined with match and action. The example in Section 4.3 can be configured using nftable tool as below. nft add table ip filter nft add chain filter input nft add rule ip filter input ip protocol tcp ip saddr 10.10.10.1/24 drop The configuration entries added in nftable would be. table ip filter { chain input { ip protocol tcp ip saddr 10.10.10.1/24 drop } } We can see that there are many similarities between Linux nftables and IETF ACL YANG data models and its extension models. It should be Bogdanovic, et al. Expires January 9, 2017 [Page 16] Internet-Draft ACL YANG model July 2016 fairly easy to do translation between ACL YANG model described in this draft and Linux nftables. 6. Security Considerations The YANG module defined in this memo is designed to be accessed via the NETCONF protocol [RFC6241] [RFC6241]. The lowest NETCONF layer is the secure transport layer and the mandatory-to-implement secure transport is SSH [RFC6242] [RFC6242]. The NETCONF access control model [RFC6536] [RFC6536] provides the means to restrict access for particular NETCONF users to a pre-configured subset of all available NETCONF protocol operations and content. There are a number of data nodes defined in the 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., ) 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: /access-lists/acl/access-list-entries: This list specifies all the configured access list entries on the device. Unauthorized write access to this list can allow intruders to access and control the system. Unauthorized read access to this list can allow intruders to spoof packets with authorized addresses thereby compromising the system. 7.

Following the format in RFC 3688, the following registration is requested to be made: URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-access-control-list URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-packet-fields Registrant Contact: The IESG.

Acknowledgements Alex Clemm, Andy Bierman and Lisa Huang started it by sketching out an initial IETF draft in several past IETF meetings. That draft included an ACL YANG model structure and a rich set of match filters, and acknowledged contributions by Louis Fourie, Dana Blair, Tula Kraiser, Patrick Gili, George Serpa, Martin Bjorklund, Kent Watsen, and Phil Shafer. Many people have reviewed the various earlier drafts that made the draft went into IETF charter. Dean Bogdanovic, Kiran Agrahara Sreenivasa, Lisa Huang, and Dana Blair each evaluated the YANG model in previous draft separately and then work together, to created a new ACL draft that can be supported by different vendors. The new draft removes vendor specific features, and gives examples to allow vendors to extend in their own proprietary ACL. The earlier draft was superseded with the new one that received more participation from many vendors. Authors would like to thank Jason Sterne, Lada Lhotka, Juergen Schoenwalder for their review of and suggestions to the draft. 9. References 9.1.

Appendix A. Extending ACL model examples A.1. Example of extending existing model for route filtering With proposed modular design, it is easy to extend the model with other features. Those features can be standard features, like route filters. Route filters match on specific IP addresses or ranges of prefixes. Much like ACLs, they include some match criteria and corresponding match action(s). For that reason, it is very simple to extend existing ACL model with route filtering. The combination of a route prefix and prefix length along with the type of match determines how route filters are evaluated against incoming routes. Different vendors have different match types and in this model we are using only ones that are common across all vendors participating in this draft. As in this example, the base ACL model can be extended with company proprietary extensions, described in the next section. file "example-ext-route-filter@2016-02-18.yang" module example-ext-route-filter { yang-version 1.1; namespace "urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:example-ext-route-filter"; prefix example-ext-route-filter; import ietf-inet-types { prefix "inet"; } import ietf-access-control-list { prefix "ietf-acl"; } organization "Route model group."; Bogdanovic, et al.

A company proprietary module example Module "example-newco-acl" is an example of company proprietary model that augments "ietf-acl" module. It shows how to use 'augment' with an XPath expression to add additional match criteria, action criteria, and default actions when no ACE matches found. All these are company proprietary extensions or system feature extensions. "example-newco-acl" is just an example and it is expected from vendors to create their own proprietary models. The following figure is the tree structure of example-newco-acl. In this example, /ietf-acl:access-lists/ietf-acl:acl/ietf-acl:access- list-entries/ ietf-acl:ace/ietf-acl:matches are augmented with two new choices, protocol-payload-choice and metadata. The protocol- payload-choice uses a grouping with an enumeration of all supported protocol values. Metadata matches apply to fields associated with the packet but not in the packet header such as input interface or overall packet length. In other example, /ietf-acl:access-lists/ ietf-acl:acl/ietf-acl:access-list-entries/ ietf-acl:ace/ietf- acl:actions are augmented with new choice of actions. Bogdanovic, et al.

Attaching Access Control List to interfaces Access control list typically does not exist in isolation. Instead, they are associated with a certain scope in which they are applied, for example, an interface of a set of interfaces. How to attach an access control list to an interface (or other system artifact) is outside the scope of this model, as it depends on the specifics of the system model that is being applied. However, in general, the general design pattern will involved adding a data node with a reference, or set of references, to ACLs that are to be applied to the interface. For this purpose, the type definition "access- control-list-ref" can be used. This is an example of attaching an Access Control List to an interface. Bogdanovic, et al.

Example to augment model with mixed ACL type As vendors (or IETF) add more features to ACL, the model is easily augmented. One of such augmentations can be to add support for mixed type of ACLs, where acl-type-base can be augmented like in example below: identity mixed-l3-acl { base "access-control-list:acl-type-base"; description "ACL that contains a mix of entries that primarily match on fields in IPv4 headers and entries that primarily match on fields in IPv6 headers. Matching on layer 4 header fields may also exist in the list. An acl of type mixed-l3-acl does not contain matches on fields in the ethernet header."; } identity mixed-l2-l3-acl { base "access-control-list:acl-type-base"; description "ACL that contains a mix of entries that primarily match on fields in ethernet headers, entries that primarily match on fields in IPv4 headers, and entries that primarily match on fields in IPv6 headers. Matching on layer 4 header fields may also exist in the list."; } Authors' Addresses Dean Bogdanovic Volta Networks Email: ivandean@gmail.com Kiran Agrahara Sreenivasa Cisco Systems Email: kkoushik@cisco.com Lisa Huang General Electric Email: lyihuang16@gmail.com Bogdanovic, et al.
