Routing Information Bases, peers, monitoring stations, and initiation messages are defined in [RFC7854].¶
This document specifies a YANG module for configuring and monitoring the BGP Monitoring Protocol (BMP) [RFC7854]. The model provides parameters for configuring the session to BMP monitoring stations; the selection of the BGP Routing Information Bases (RIBs) for Route Monitoring Messages; provides operational metrics and enables resetting of BMP monitoring sessions.¶
The model is included in Section 3. In this section, we provide details and examples of each of its parts.¶
The BMP yang model is placed at the root of the YANG tree. At its upper level, the BMP model lists each monitoring station. Every monitoring station is identified by an ID, which is a string provided by the operator.¶
BMP allows for active and passive connections between the router and the BMP monitoring station as described in Section 3.2 of [RFC7854]. In an active connection, the router establishes the TCP connection to the monitoring station, while in a passive one, it is the monitoring station which initiates the connection. The BMP yang module provides options for both types of connection using a choice.¶
We describe each type of connection option next, and provide examples of their configuration.¶
For an active connection, the IP address and port of the monitoring station, together with the local address MUST be provided. One can optionally provide the local port for establishing the connection. If the monitoring station is connected over a network-instance instead of the global one, this one must also be specified. An example of configuration is included in Figure 1.¶
Note in the example from Figure 1 that there is no network instance defined, so the connection is using the global network instance.¶
In a passive connection, the IP of the monitoring station, the local address and local port for the incoming connection must be specified. If the port of the monitoring station is provided, it MUST match the incoming connection. If the monitoring station is connected through a network-instance instead of the global one, this one MUST also be specified.¶
An incoming connection not matching a valid entry MUST be ignored by the router.¶
The BMP module allows tuning various parameters of the TCP connection supporting the BMP session:¶
Figures 3 and 4 include examples configuring the previous TCP parameters in the model.¶
The model also includes the next options to configure the connection to the BMP monitoring station:¶
In the example in Figure 5, we configure an initial-delay of 10. Configuring an initial-backoff of 50 seconds and 600 of maximum-backoff.¶
The bmp-data container defines the configuration parameters for the data that the devices sends to the monitoring station using the various BMP messages. See Section 4 of [RFC7854].¶
The BMP model defines options for the initiation message, the statistics report, and the routing monitoring. The first two have simple configurations options and are shortly described next. The Routing monitoring is the most complex of all and it is detailed in Section 2.4.1.¶
An example of configuring the previous options is included in Figure 6¶
Route monitoring messages are used for synchronization of RIBs to the monitoring station. See Section 5 of [RFC7854].¶
The next 3 requirements were defined before designing this part of the model.¶
Based on the previous points, the BMP yang model is designed to flexibly control the data sent through the BMP route monitoring packets, yet it provides options to facilitate configurations for simple cases, such as when the operator wants to receive all routes from a RIB.¶
The Routing monitoring configuration is divided in a 4 part hierarchy:¶
Absence of the routing monitoring container will disable the routing monitoring messages to the monitoring station.¶
We'll offer an introduction to these hierarchies before going over them with detail.¶
The number of RIB types (e.g. Adj-RIB-IN, etc/OUT and local RIB) and Address families is low, and their configuration should not change frequently. Therefore, they are configured explicitly in the model. That is, the model does not provide a way of providing a default configuration for these or configuring them in groups.¶
On the other hand, Network instances and peers require greater flexibility.¶
For network instances, the model should configure not only the "global" network instance (the main one configured under the /ietf-routing:routing), but also other network instances configured under the /ietf-network-instance:network-instances/. Also, network instances can change frequently in networks with customer connecting to Virtual Private Networks. To not force operators to change configuration at every change, the model provides methods for defining a "default" configuration for network instances. However, to provide control over the configuration, each network instance can be configured independently, if needed.¶
A situation is similar with peers for the Adj-RIB-IN and Adj-RIB-OUT RIBs. The model includes a way of configuring a default for all peers for simple cases, but one can provide configuration for type of peers or each peer individually.¶
We summarize the requirements stated on the previous two paragraphs next:¶
For network instances:¶
For peers:¶
To further control the route monitoring data, the peer/peer-type container includes a route-policy option in which the operator can further filter the data send to the BMP monitoring station.¶
We'll describe each of the 4 hierarchies, and provide examples for each, in the next sections.¶
The routing monitoring configuration starts with the selection of network instance. One or more Network instances can be selected using a "bmp-ni-types" identity, or they can be selected individually, referencing the /network-instance/ list.¶
The model currently defines two bmp-ni-types identities: "bmp-ni-types-all-ni" which selects all network instances, and "bmp-ni-types-global-ni" which selects the global network instance (the one configured in `/ietf-routing:routing/`). The former can be used as a "default" configuration for simple cases.¶
An empty configuration disables routing monitoring messages for the selected network-instances. Operators can also use the enable leaf to disable explicitly the routing messages for the network instance.¶
The route-monitoring data for a network instance can be configured by maximum one element of the network-instances list. There SHOULD be clear rules to which element to apply to a network instance in case multiple elements can select it. We provide rules and examples in the next part of the section.¶
Any extension of the bmp-ni-types SHOULD provide explanations of how to deal with case in which multiple elements select the same network instance.¶
We provide examples of configuring the network instance level next. To focus on the network instance configuration, we mask the configuration under each instance using "Configuration X".¶
In example from Figure 7, we have a "default" configuration (Configuration A) applied to any network instance without any explicit configuration. The global network instance and network-instance-two get Configuration B and Configuration C, respectively. The network-instance-one instance disables the routing monitoring messages for that network instance.¶
The example in Figure 8 shows a "simple" configuration. In this case, all network instances would get "Configuration D". Note that `bmp-ni-types-all-ni` would also cover the global instance.¶
Another simple configuration would just involve configuring the global network instance. In this case, information of non-global network instances would not be sent to the monitoring station. This is depicted in Figure 9¶
Each RIB type is configured explicitly in the model through a container. The model currently provides containers for adj-rib-out-pre, adj-rib-out-post, adj-rib-in-post, adj-rib-in-pre and local-rib.¶
An empty configuration or absence of a RIB-type container disables route-messages for it. Operators can also disable the RIB-type route monitoring messages by marking the "enabled" leaf as False.¶
We provide an example of this together with address families in the next section¶
Address families are configured explicitly within each RIB-TYPE using a list. The key is of type `ietf-bgp-types:afi-safi-type` without any further constraint.¶
An empty configuration or absence of an address family disables route-messages for it. Operators can also disable the address-family route monitoring messages by marking the "enabled" leaf as False.¶
We show a few examples of configuring RIB-Types and Address families next. We will mask further configurations of address families with "Configuration X" to focus on the covered parts.¶
In Figure 10, we expand previous sections examples with RIB-Type and address families configurations. The expected result of the previous configuration would be:¶
If an operator only wants to configure the IPv4/IPv6 of adj-rib-pre-in for the global instance, the configuration in Figure 11 will be enough. We note again that even if the configuration of both address families is the same, they must be explicitly configured for each of them.¶
For adj-RIB-in and adj-RIB-out, both pre and post, the model requires the selection of peer's RIBs that will be transmitted to the monitoring station. The local-rib does not include this container.¶
Peers are a list indexed by a peer id, which can be one of the following:¶
Peers MUST be selected (configured) by maximum a single instance of the peers list. For the included keys in the BMP model, the process to select which instance to use is the next:¶
An empty configuration of a peer type disables route-messages for it. Operators can also disable the address-family route monitoring messages by marking the "enabled" leaf as False.¶
Any additional bmp-peer-types identity created SHOULD describe how to unambiguously select a peer when there are conflicting options (multiple options covering the peer).¶
We'll provide examples of the peers configuration after describing the filter containers.¶
The local rib, and the peer containers within the rest of rib types, include a filter container. This container includes mechanisms to filter route-monitoring messages for the specific RIB.¶
The policy-filter can include a routing policy that, if existing, should be applied to the outgoing updates to the monitoring station, and would serve as a granular way of filtering the messages that the monitoring station receives.¶
Note that the policy-filter contains an `accept-route` default export policy. An operator can change it to a reject-route, if required.¶
The policies created with the routing-policy can perform a large variety of actions routes, and can filter them based on multiple characteristics. For the consistency of the data in the monitoring station, the route policies actions SHOULD be restricted to accepting or rejecting routes. Furthermore, the conditions SHOULD only match prefix sets.¶
We present examples of full configurations next.¶
In this example, address families IPv6 and IPv4 are configured to send all peers. This is an example of a simple configuration¶
In this example, the global network instance enables the adj-rib-in-pre. In this RIB, the IPv4 unicast address family is configured for all external peers. We assume peer 198.51.100.1 is external, but its BGP configuration is not shown in the snippet. Peer 198.51.100.1, however, has a specific configuration: it announces everything but prefixes matching the test_policy list. Note that there is a default accept-route default policy in the model.¶
In this example, all network instances have adj-rib-in-pre with IPv6 and IPv4 configured receiving all peers. network-instance-one is disabled, and network-instance-two is announcing only the local-rib/IPv4 unicast routes.¶
The non-configurable container "session-stats" includes various metrics for the session with the monitoring station.¶
The "session-reset" action resets a session with a monitoring station.¶

<CODE ENDS>¶
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 NETCONF Access Control Model (NACM) [RFC8341] provides the means to restrict access for NETCONF or RESTCONF users to a preconfigured subset of all available NETCONF or RESTCONF protocol operations and content.¶
BGP data is sensible for security considerations. The model described in this document could be used to send BGP information to malicious BMP stations. Write access to this model SHOULD therefore be properly protected.¶
The session-reset action can demand considerable amount of resources from network elements. It SHOULD thus be protected from illegal access.¶

This sections shows some examples of BMP configuration using the model.¶
In this example, the device connects to a monitoring station using an active connection. The devices sends route monitoring messages for the global instance, the adj-rib-out-pre RIB, the IPv4/IPv6 address family, and external peers.¶

In the next example, the device connects to a monitoring station using a passive connection, over the network-instance monitoring. The configuration of route monitoring messages is more complex than in the previous example. It shows how to combine the configuration of general identities of network instances and peers (e.g. bmp-ni-types-all-ni for NI, external for peers), and individual configurations to support a more complex requirement. This is what the example expects to configure:¶
