Introduction + + This document defines a YANG module [RFC7950] for the management of + the IP Traffic Flow Security (IP-TFS) extensions defined in + [RFC9347]. IP-TFS provides enhancements to an IPsec tunnel Security + Association (SA) to provide improved traffic confidentiality. + Traffic confidentiality reduces the ability of traffic analysis to + determine identity and correlate observable traffic patterns. IP-TFS + offers efficiency when aggregating traffic in fixed-size IPsec tunnel + packets. + + The YANG data model in this document conforms to the Network + Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA) defined in [RFC8342]. + + The published YANG modules for IPsec are defined in [RFC9061]. This + document uses these models as a general IPsec model that is augmented + for IP-TFS. The models in [RFC9061] provide for both an IKE and an + IKE-less model. + +2. Overview + + This document defines configuration and operational parameters of IP + Traffic Flow Security (IP-TFS). IP-TFS, defined in [RFC9347], + defines a security association for tunnel mode IPsec with + characteristics that improve traffic confidentiality and reduce + bandwidth efficiency loss. These documents assume familiarity with + the IPsec concepts described in [RFC4301]. + + IP-TFS uses tunnel mode to improve confidentiality by hiding inner + packet identifiable information, packet size, and packet timing. IP- + TFS provides a general capability allowing aggregation of multiple + packets in uniform-size outer tunnel IPsec packets. It maintains the + outer packet size by utilizing combinations of aggregating, padding, + and fragmenting inner packets to fill out the IPsec outer tunnel + packet. Padding is used to fill the packet when no data is available + to send. + + This document specifies an extensible configuration model for IP-TFS. + This version utilizes the capabilities of IP-TFS to configure fixed- + size IP-TFS packets that are transmitted at a constant rate. This + model is structured to allow for different types of operation through + future augmentation. + + The IP-TFS YANG module augments the IPsec YANG module from [RFC9061]. + IP-TFS makes use of IPsec tunnel mode and adds a small number of + configuration items to IPsec tunnel mode. As defined in [RFC9347], + any SA configured to use IP-TFS supports only IP-TFS packets, i.e., + no mixed IPsec modes. + + The behavior for IP-TFS is controlled by the source. The self- + describing format of an IP-TFS packet allows a sending side to adjust + the packet size and timing independently from any receiver. Both + directions are also independent, e.g., IP-TFS may be run only in one + direction. This means that counters, which are created here for both + directions, may be 0 or not updated in the case of an SA that uses + IP-TFS only in on direction. + + Cases where IP-TFS statistics are active for one direction: + + * SA one direction - IP-TFS enabled + + * SA both directions - IP-TFS only enabled in one direction + + Case where IP-TFS statistics are active for both directions: + + * SA both directions - IP-TFS enable for both directions + + The IP-TFS model supports IP-TFS configuration and operational data. + + This YANG module supports configuration of fixed-size and fixed-rate + packets, as well as elements that may be augmented to support future + configuration. The protocol specification [RFC9347] goes beyond this + simple, fixed mode of operation by defining a general format for any + type of scheme. In this document, the outer IPsec packets can be + sent with fixed or variable size (without padding). The + configuration allows the fixed packet size to be determined by the + path MTU. The fixed packet size can also be configured if a value + lower than the path MTU is desired. + + Other configuration items include: + + Congestion Control: + A congestion control setting to allow IP-TFS to reduce the packet + rate when congestion is detected. + + Fixed-Rate Configuration: + The IP-TFS tunnel rate can be configured by taking into account + either layer 2 overhead or layer 3 overhead. Layer 3 overhead is + the IP data rate, and layer 2 overhead is the rate of bits on the + link. The combination of packet size and rate determines the + nominal maximum bandwidth and the transmission interval when + fixed-size packets are used. + + User Packet Fragmentation Control: + While fragmentation is recommended for improved efficiency, a + configuration is provided if users wish to observe the effect of + no fragmentation on their data flows. + + The YANG operational data allows the readout of the configured + parameters, as well as the per-SA statistics and error counters for + IP-TFS. Per-SA IPsec packet statistics are provided as a feature, + and per-SA IP-TFS-specific statistics are provided as another + feature. Both sets of statistics augment the IPsec YANG modules with + counters that allow observation of IP-TFS packet efficiency. + + IPsec YANG management objects are set in [RFC9061]. IP-TFS YANG + augments the IKE and the IKE-less models. In these models, the + Security Policy database entry and Security Association entry for an + IPsec tunnel can be augmented with IP-TFS. In addition, this model + uses YANG types defined in [RFC6991]. + +3. YANG Management + +3.1.

IANA Considerations + +4.1. Updates to the IETF XML Registry + + Per this document, IANA has registered a URI in the "IETF XML + Registry" [RFC3688] as follows. + + URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-ipsec-iptfs + Registrant Contact: The IESG. + XML: N/A; the requested URI is an XML namespace. + +4.2. Updates to the YANG Module Names Registry + + Per this document, IANA has registered one YANG module in the "YANG + Module Names" registry [RFC6020] as follows. + + Name: ietf-ipsec-iptfs + Namespace: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-ipsec-iptfs + Prefix: iptfs + Reference: RFC 9348 + +5. 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: + + ../traffic-flow-security: Enabling IP-TFS is controlled by setting + the entries under traffic-flow-security in IKE or IKE-less models. + IP-TFS is set either to be congestion sensitive or a fixed rate by + setting parameters in this subtree. + + 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: + + ../iptfs-inner-pkt-stats and ../iptfs-outer-pkt-stats: Access to IP- + TFS statistics can provide information that IP-TFS obscures, such + as the true activity of the flows using IP-TFS. + +6.
