Subject: [L3sm] Protocol Action: 'YANG Data Model for L3VPN service delivery' to Proposed Standard (draft-ietf-l3sm-l3vpn-service-model-19.txt)

The IESG has approved the following document:
- 'YANG Data Model for L3VPN service delivery'
(draft-ietf-l3sm-l3vpn-service-model-19.txt) as Proposed Standard

This document is the product of the L3VPN Service Model Working Group.

The IESG contact persons are Benoit Claise and Joel Jaeggli.

Technical Summary

This document defines a YANG data model that can be used for communication
between customers and network operators, and to provide input to automated
control and configuration applications used to deliver a Layer 3 Provider
Provisioned VPN service. The document is limited to the BGP PE-based VPNs
as described in RFC4110 and RFC4364. This model is intended to be instantiated
at management system to deliver the overall service. This model is not a
configuration model to be used directly on network elements. This model
provides an abstracted view of the Layer 3 IPVPN service configuration components.
It will be up to a management system to take this as an input and use
specific configurations models to configure the different network
elements to deliver the service. How configuration of network
elements is done is out of scope of the document.

Working Group Summary

Consensus was complete in the working group after one and half year of development.
A first WGLC was largely silent reflecting (the chairs believe) satisfaction with previous discussions.
But after solicitation, a number of people from network operators responded that they considered
the document ready. A few last-minute questions were received and handled.

Document Quality

The shepherd is aware of a proof-of-concept implementation based on an earlier version of the document.
This document is ready to ship,

Personnel

Qin Wu is the Document Shepherd.
Benoit Claise is the responsible Area Director.
