1. Introduction
This document defines a YANG data model [RFC7950] that can be used to
configure and manage Network Time Protocol version 4 [RFC5905]. Note
that the model could also be used to configure and manage NTPv3
[RFC1305] (see Section 7).
The data model covers configuration of system parameters of NTP such
as access rules, authentication and VPN Routing and Forwarding (VRF)
binding, and various modes of NTP and per-interface parameters. It
also provides access to information about running state of NTP
implementations.
1.1. Operational State
NTP operational state is included in the same tree as NTP
configuration, consistent with "Network Management Datastore
Architecture (NMDA)" [RFC8342]. NTP current state and statistics are
also maintained in the operational state. The operational state also
includes the NTP association state.
1.2. Terminology
The terminology used in this document is aligned with [RFC5905] and
[RFC1305].
1.3. Tree Diagrams
A simplified graphical representation of the data model is used in
this document. This document uses the graphical representation of
data models defined in [RFC8340].
1.4. Prefixes in Data Node Names
In this document, names of data nodes and other data model objects
are often used without a prefix, as long as it is clear from the
context in which YANG module each name is defined. Otherwise, names
are prefixed using the standard prefix associated with the
corresponding YANG module, as shown in Table 1.

The full data model tree for the YANG module "ietf-ntp" is in
Appendix A.
This data model defines one top-level container that includes both
the NTP configuration and the NTP running state including access
rules, authentication, associations, unicast configurations,
interfaces, system status, and associations.
3. Relationship with NTPv4-MIB
If the device implements the NTPv4-MIB [RFC5907], data nodes from the
YANG module can be mapped to table entries in the NTPv4-MIB.
The following tables list the YANG data nodes with corresponding
objects in the NTPv4-MIB.
+===========================+====================================+

4. Relationship with RFC 7317
This section describes the relationship with definition of NTP in
Section 3.2 (System Time Management) of [RFC7317]. YANG data nodes
in /ntp/ also support per-interface configuration, which is not
supported in /system/ntp. If the YANG data model defined in this
document is implemented, then /system/ntp SHOULD NOT be used and MUST
be ignored.

5. Access Rules
The access rules in this section refer to the on-the-wire access
control to the NTP service and are completely independent of any
management API access control, e.g., NETCONF Access Control Model
(NACM) [RFC8341].
An Access Control List (ACL) is one of the basic elements used to
configure device-forwarding behavior. An ACL is a user-ordered set
of rules that is used to filter traffic on a networking device.
As per [RFC1305] (for NTPv3) and [RFC5905] (for NTPv4), NTP could
include an access-control feature that prevents unauthorized access
and that controls which peers are allowed to update the local clock.
Further, it is useful to differentiate between the various kinds of
access and attach a different acl-rule to each. For this, the YANG
module allows such configuration via /ntp/access-rules. The access-
rule itself is configured via [RFC8519].
The following access-modes are supported:
Peer: Permit others to synchronize their time with the NTP entity or
vice versa. NTP control queries are also accepted.
Server: Permit others to synchronize their time with the NTP entity,
but vice versa is not supported. NTP control queries are
accepted.
Server-only: Permit others to synchronize their time with the NTP
entity, but vice versa is not supported. NTP control queries are
not accepted.
Query-only: Only control queries are accepted.
Query-only is the most restricted whereas the peer is the full access
authority. The ability to give different ACL rules for different
access-modes allows for a greater control by the operator.
6. Key Management
As per [RFC1305] (for NTPv3) and [RFC5905] (for NTPv4), when
authentication is enabled, NTP employs a crypto-checksum, computed by
the sender and checked by the receiver, together with a set of
predistributed algorithms, and cryptographic keys indexed by a key
identifier included in the NTP message. This keyid is a 32-bit
unsigned integer that MUST be configured on the NTP peers before the
authentication can be used. For this reason, this YANG module allows
such configuration via /ntp/authentication/authentication-keys/.
Further at the time of configuration of NTP association (for example,
unicast server), the keyid is specified.
The 'nacm:default-deny-all' is used to prevent retrieval of the
actual key information after it is set.
7. NTP Version
This YANG data model allows a version to be configured for the NTP
association, i.e., an operator can control the use of NTPv3 [RFC1305]
or NTPv4 [RFC5905] for each association it forms. This allows
backward compatibility with a legacy system. Note that NTPv3
[RFC1305] is obsoleted by NTPv4 [RFC5905].

9. Usage Example
This section include examples for illustration purposes.
Note: '\' indicates line wrapping per [RFC8792].
9.1. Unicast Association
This example describes how to configure a preferred unicast server
present at 192.0.2.1 running at port 1025 with authentication-key 10
and version 4 (default).
<edit-config xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0">
<target>
<running/>
</target>
<config>
<ntp xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-ntp">
<unicast-configuration>
<address>192.0.2.1</address>
<type>uc-server</type>
<prefer>true</prefer>
<port>1025</port>
<authentication>
<symmetric-key>
<keyid>10</keyid>
</symmetric-key>
</authentication>
</unicast-configuration>
</ntp>
</config>
</edit-config>
An example with IPv6 would use an IPv6 address (say 2001:db8::1) in
the "address" leaf with no change in any other data tree.
<edit-config xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0">
<target>
<running/>
</target>
<config>
<ntp xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-ntp">

10. IANA Considerations
10.1. IETF XML Registry
This document registers a URI in the "IETF XML Registry" [RFC3688].
Following the format in RFC 3688, the following registration has been
made.
URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-ntp
Registrant Contact: The IESG.
XML: N/A; the requested URI is an XML namespace.
10.2. YANG Module Names
This document registers a YANG module in the "YANG Module Names"
registry [RFC6020].
Name: ietf-ntp
Namespace: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-ntp
Prefix: ntp
Reference: RFC 9249
11. 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. The 'nacm:default-deny-
all' is used to prevent retrieval of the key information.
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:
/ntp/port: This data node specifies the port number to be used to
send NTP packets. Unexpected changes could lead to disruption
and/or network misbehavior.
/ntp/authentication and /ntp/access-rules: The entries in the list
include the authentication and access control configurations.
Care should be taken while setting these parameters.
/ntp/unicast-configuration: The entries in the list include all
unicast configurations (server or peer mode) and indirectly
creates or modifies the NTP associations. Unexpected changes
could lead to disruption and/or network misbehavior.
/ntp/interfaces/interface: The entries in the list include all per-
interface configurations related to broadcast, multicast, and
manycast mode, and indirectly creates or modifies the NTP
associations. Unexpected changes could lead to disruption and/or
network misbehavior. It could also lead to synchronization over
an untrusted source over trusted ones.
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:
/ntp/authentication/authentication-keys: The entries in the list
include all the NTP authentication keys. Unauthorized access to
the keys can be easily exploited to permit unauthorized access to
the NTP service. This information is sensitive; thus,
unauthorized access to this needs to be curtailed.
/ntp/associations/association/: The entries in the list include all
active NTP associations of all modes. Exposure of these nodes
could reveal network topology or trust relationships.
Unauthorized access to this also needs to be curtailed.
/ntp/authentication and /ntp/access-rules: The entries in the list
include the authentication and access control configurations.
Exposure of these nodes could reveal network topology or trust
relationships.
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:
statistics-reset: The RPC is used to reset statistics. Unauthorized
reset could impact monitoring.
The leaf /ntp/authentication/authentication-keys/algorithm can be set
to cryptographic algorithms that are no longer considered to be
secure. As per [RFC8573], AES-CMAC is the recommended algorithm.
