1. Introduction
This document defines a data model for DS-Lite [RFC6333], using the
YANG data modeling language [RFC7950]. Both the Address Family
Transition Router (AFTR) and Basic Bridging BroadBand (B4) elements
are covered by this specification.
Figure 1 is a slight adaptation of Figure 1 from RFC 6333 and is
provided here for the convenience of the reader.

Figure 1: DS-Lite Base Architecture
DS-Lite deployment considerations are discussed in [RFC6908].
This document follows the guidelines of [RFC8407], uses the common
YANG types defined in [RFC6991], and adopts the Network Management
Datastore Architecture (NMDA) [RFC8342].
1.1. Terminology
This document makes use of the terms defined in Section 3 of
[RFC6333].
The terminology for describing YANG data models is defined in
[RFC7950].
The meaning of the symbols in tree diagrams is defined in [RFC8340].
2. DS-Lite YANG Module: An Overview
As shown in Figure 1:
o The AFTR element is a combination of an IPv4-in-IPv6 tunnel and a
NAPT function (Section 2.2 of [RFC3022]).
o The B4 element is an IPv4-in-IPv6 tunnel.
Therefore, the DS-Lite YANG module is designed to augment both the
Interfaces YANG module [RFC8343] and the NAT YANG module [RFC8512]
with DS-Lite-specific features.
The YANG "feature" statement is used to distinguish which of the
DS-Lite elements ('aftr' or 'b4') is relevant for a specific data
node.
Concretely, the DS-Lite YANG module (Figure 2) augments the
Interfaces YANG module with the following:
o An IPv6 address used by the tunnel endpoint (AFTR or B4) for
sending and receiving IPv4-in-IPv6 packets (ipv6-address).
o An IPv4 address that is used by the tunnel endpoint (AFTR or B4)
for troubleshooting purposes (ipv4-address).
o An IPv6 address used by a B4 element to reach its AFTR (aftr-
ipv6-addr).
o The tunnel MTU used to avoid fragmentation (tunnel-mtu).
o A policy to instruct the tunnel endpoint (AFTR or B4) whether it
must preserve Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) marking
when encapsulating/decapsulating packets (v6-v4-dscp-
preservation).
In addition, the DS-Lite YANG module augments the NAT YANG module
(policy, in particular) with the following:
o A policy to limit the number of DS-Lite softwires per subscriber
(max-softwire-per-subscriber).
o A policy to instruct the AFTR whether a state can be automatically
migrated (state-migrate).
o Further, in order to prevent a Denial of Service (DoS) by
frequently changing the source IPv6 address, 'b4-address-change-
limit' is used to rate-limit such changes.
o An instruction to rewrite the TCP Maximum Segment Size (MSS)
option (mss-clamping) to avoid TCP fragmentation.
Given that the NAPT table of the AFTR element is extended to include
the source IPv6 address of incoming packets, the DS-Lite YANG module
augments the NAPT44 mapping entry with the following:
o b4-ipv6-address, which is used to record the source IPv6 address
of a packet received from a B4 element. This IPv6 address is
required to disambiguate between the overlapping IPv4 address
space of subscribers.
o The value of the Traffic Class field in the IPv6 header as
received from a B4 element (v6-dscp): This information is used to
preserve DSCP marking when encapsulating/decapsulating at the
AFTR.
o The IPv4 DSCP marking of the IPv4 packet received from a B4
element (internal-v4-dscp): This information can be used by the
AFTR for setting the DSCP of packets relayed to a B4 element.
o The IPv4 DSCP marking as set by the AFTR in its external interface
(external-v4-dscp): An AFTR can be instructed to preserve the same
marking or to set it to another value when forwarding an IPv4
packet destined to a remote IPv4 host.
Access Control List (ACL) and Quality-of-Service (QoS) policies
discussed in Section 2.5 of [RFC6908] are out of scope. A YANG
module for ACLs is documented in [ACL-YANG].
Likewise, considerations that are related to the Port Control
Protocol (PCP) and discussed in Section 8.5 of [RFC6333] are out of
scope. A YANG module for PCP is documented in [YANG-PCP].
The YANG module "ietf-dslite" has the following structure:
module: ietf-dslite
augment /if:interfaces/if:interface:
+--rw ipv6-address? inet:ipv6-address
+--rw ipv4-address? inet:ipv4-address

4. 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.
All data nodes defined in the YANG module that can be created,
modified, and deleted (i.e., config true, which is the default) are
considered sensitive. Write operations (e.g., edit-config) applied
to these data nodes without proper protection can negatively affect
network operations. An attacker who is able to access the B4/AFTR
can undertake various attacks, such as:
o Setting the value of 'aftr-ipv6-addr' on the B4 to point to an
illegitimate AFTR so that it can intercept all the traffic sent by
a B4. Illegitimately intercepting users' traffic is an attack
with severe implications on privacy.
o Setting the MTU to a low value, which may increase the number of
fragments ('tunnel-mtu' for both B4 and AFTR).
o Setting 'max-softwire-per-subscriber' to an arbitrary high value,
which will be exploited by a misbehaving user to grab more
resources (by mounting as many softwires as required to get more
external IP addresses/ports) or to perform a DoS on the AFTR by
mounting a massive number of softwires.
o Setting 'state-migrate' to 'false' on the AFTR. This action may
lead to a service degradation for the users.
o Setting 'b4-address-change-limit' to an arbitrary low value can
ease DoS attacks based on frequent change of the B4 IPv6 address.
o Setting 'v6-v4-dscp-preservation' to 'false" may lead to a service
degradation if some policies are applied on the network based on
the DSCP value.
Additional security considerations are discussed in [RFC8512].
Security considerations related to DS-Lite are discussed in
[RFC6333].
5. IANA Considerations
IANA has registered the following URI in the "ns" subregistry within
the "IETF XML Registry" [RFC3688]:
URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-dslite
Registrant Contact: The IESG.
XML: N/A; the requested URI is an XML namespace.
IANA has registered the following YANG module in the "YANG Module
Names" subregistry [RFC7950] within the "YANG Parameters" registry.
name: ietf-dslite

Appendix A. B4 Example
The following example shows a B4 element (2001:db8:0:1::1) that is
configured with an AFTR element (2001:db8:0:2::1). The B4 element is
also instructed to preserve the DSCP marking.
<interfaces>
<interface>
<name>myB4</name>
<type>dslite:dslite</type>
<enabled>true</enabled>
<dslite:ipv6-address>
2001:db8:0:1::1
</dslite:ipv6-address>
<dslite:aftr-ipv6-addr>
2001:db8:0:2::1
</dslite:aftr-ipv6-addr>
<dslite:v6-v4-dscp-preservation>
true
</dslite:v6-v4-dscp-preservation>
</interface>
</interfaces>
Appendix B. AFTR Examples
The following example shows an AFTR that is reachable at
2001:db8:0:2::1. Also, this XML snippet indicates that the AFTR is
provided with an IPv4 address (192.0.0.1) to be used for
troubleshooting purposes such as reporting problems to B4s.
Note that a subscriber is identified by a subscriber-mask [RFC7785]
that can be configured by means of [RFC8512].
<interfaces>
<interface>
<name>myAFTR</name>
<type>dslite:dslite</type>
<enabled>true</enabled>
<dslite:ipv6-address>2001:db8:0:2::1</dslite:ipv6-address>
<dslite:ipv4-address>192.0.0.1</dslite:ipv4-address>
</interface>
</interfaces>
The following shows an XML excerpt depicting a dynamic UDP mapping
entry maintained by a DS-Lite AFTR for a packet received from the B4
element introduced in Appendix A. Concretely, this UDP packet
received with a source IPv6 address (2001:db8:0:1::1), a source IPv4
address (192.0.2.1), and a source port number (1568) is translated
into a UDP packet having a source IPv4 address (198.51.100.1) and
source port number (15000). The remaining lifetime of this mapping
is 300 seconds.
