IPPM Working Group B. Y. Yoon Internet-Draft ETRI Intended status: Standards Track Y. You Expires: 7 January 2027 woori-net 6 July 2026 A YANG Data Model for Collection Interval Capabilities draft-yoon-ippm-collection-interval-capabilities-00 Abstract This document defines a YANG data model, "ietf-pm-interval- capabilities", that enables a server to advertise which collection intervals it can support. A client reads this capability information before configuring performance measurements, so that it selects only sampling and collection intervals that the server can honour. The capabilities are advertised by augmenting the "ietf-system- capabilities" module defined in [RFC9196], so that a client discovers them at the same well-known location used for subscription and notification capabilities. The model imports the "profile-names" type from the companion collection measurement model defined in [I-D.yoon-ippm-collection-measure] and mirrors its profile-and- parameter structure, ensuring direct alignment between capability discovery and measurement configuration. The model does not define measurement data structures or any delivery mechanism; those are defined in the companion document.

Introduction The collection measurement data model defined in [I-D.yoon-ippm-collection-measure] allows a client to configure sampling and collection intervals for performance parameters within named parameter profiles. The same parameter may require different intervals depending on its type and monitoring objective, and different network elements support different ranges and granularities of intervals. Without a prior discovery step, a client risks configuring interval values that the server cannot honour, leading to configuration errors or suboptimal monitoring. This document defines a YANG data model [RFC7950], "ietf-pm-interval- capabilities", for advertising the collection collection interval capabilities a server supports. A client reads this information from the operational datastore before it configures measurements. The model mirrors the profile-and-parameter structure of the companion collection measurement model and reuses its "profile-names" type, so that capability discovery aligns directly with measurement configuration. Rather than defining a separate top-level container, this module augments the "system-capabilities" container of the "ietf-system- capabilities" module defined in [RFC9196]. RFC 9196 provides a placeholder structure that other modules augment to expose YANG- related system capabilities; the companion module "ietf-notification- capabilities" (Section 3 of [RFC9196]) uses the same anchor to advertise subscription and notification capabilities. By augmenting the same anchor, this module lets a NETCONF or RESTCONF client discover the measurement interval capabilities and the subscription capabilities through a single, standardised query, without prior knowledge of this module's own layout. This document does not define measurement data structures, collection types, threshold events, or any delivery mechanism. All of those are defined in the companion document [I-D.yoon-ippm-collection-measure]. 1.1. Terminology The terms "client", "server", "datastore", and "operational state" are used as defined in [RFC6241] and [RFC8342]. Yoon & You Expires 7 January 2027 [Page 3] Internet-Draft PM Interval Capabilities YANG July 2026 The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here. 1.2. Relationship to Companion Documents This document and [I-D.yoon-ippm-collection-measure] together provide the functional coverage that was originally combined in a single document, draft-yoon-ccamp-pm-streaming. The original document defined both the PM collection data model and the interval capability model in one place and focused on push-based streaming as the delivery mechanism. The two documents have been separated to achieve cleaner separation of concerns and to make the models delivery- mechanism neutral. The functional division is as follows. [I-D.yoon-ippm-collection-measure] defines "ietf-pm-collection", which covers: * Parameter profiles and PM parameter groupings * Three collection types: Counts, Snapshot, and Tidemarks (per ITU-T G.7710 [G7710]) * Configurable sampling and collection intervals * Threshold event notifications (periodic and non-periodic) * Data structures accessible via pull-based retrieval (NETCONF, RESTCONF) or push-based subscription (YANG-Push) This document defines "ietf-pm-interval-capabilities", which covers: * Read-only advertisement of the sampling and collection interval ranges, units, defaults, and granularity that a server supports * Hierarchical alignment with the companion model's profile-and- parameter structure * Capability discovery prior to measurement configuration The separation of concerns is: * "What data is collected and how it is structured" is in [I-D.yoon-ippm-collection-measure]. Yoon & You Expires 7 January 2027 [Page 4] Internet-Draft PM Interval Capabilities YANG July 2026 * "Which interval configurations the server can support" is in this document. Figure 1 illustrates the relationship between the two YANG modules. +------------------------------------------+ | ietf-pm-interval-capabilities | | (this document) | | | | pm-interval-capabilities | | parameter-profile [profile-names] -+ | | pm-parameter | | | interval-relationships | | | sampling-interval | | | collection-interval | | +------------------------------|----------+ | imports profile-names v +------------------------------------------+ | ietf-pm-collection | | (draft-yoon-ippm-collection-measure-00) | | | | pm-periodic-collection | | parameter-profile [profile-names] | | pm-parameter | | sampling-interval | | collection-interval | | collection-types | | counts / snapshot / | | tidemarks | +------------------------------------------+ Figure 1: Relationship between ietf-pm-interval-capabilities and ietf-pm- collection 2. Motivation ITU-T G.7710 [G7710] does not include a clause that mandates a capability-discovery mechanism for configurable measurement timing parameters. However, because sampling and collection intervals are configurable, a client needs to know in advance which intervals a given server can support, so that requests can be built without violating implementation constraints. This module provides that advertisement. Yoon & You Expires 7 January 2027 [Page 5] Internet-Draft PM Interval Capabilities YANG July 2026 2.1. Monitoring Objectives Require Different Intervals The same PM parameter may need to be collected simultaneously at multiple sampling and collection interval combinations, each serving a distinct operational objective. As illustrated by the use cases in [I-D.yoon-ippm-collection-measure], Errored Seconds (ES) sampled every second may be aggregated over a 1-minute interval for rapid fault detection in a Network Operations Center (NOC), over a 15-minute interval for routine maintenance monitoring aligned with ITU-T G.7710 [G7710], and over a 24-hour interval for daily QoS reporting -- all three objectives active concurrently on the same parameter. Similarly, latency parameters may be sampled at sub- second granularity with short collection intervals for digital twin synchronization, or at longer intervals for AI/ML model training. A client wishing to configure all of these combinations for all parameters in a profile must first verify that the target server supports every required interval. Without a capability discovery step, the client has no way to know whether a desired combination is valid on the specific server, and may submit configurations that the server silently truncates, rejects, or rounds to the nearest supported value. 2.2. Equipment Performance Determines Achievable Intervals Beyond monitoring objective, the processing capacity of the network element itself directly determines which interval configurations are feasible for a given parameter. Network elements vary significantly in their measurement engines and hardware resources. High-performance network elements with dedicated measurement processors can support short minimum sampling intervals and fine- grained collection interval steps, enabling high-resolution monitoring for demanding use cases such as real-time fault detection, network digital twins, and AI-driven analytics. For example, such a device may support a 100-millisecond sampling interval for ES, with collection intervals as short as 1 minute and a 5-second granularity step. Lower-specification network elements, constrained by processing resources or hardware architecture, may support only longer minimum intervals and coarser granularity steps. The same ES parameter on such a device might have a minimum sampling interval of 1 second and a minimum collection interval of 15 minutes, adequate for traditional operations and maintenance monitoring but insufficient for sub-minute analytics. Table 1 shows an example comparison for the ES parameter. Yoon & You Expires 7 January 2027 [Page 6] Internet-Draft PM Interval Capabilities YANG July 2026 +===================+===============+=============+=============+ | Equipment class | Min. sampling | Min. | Granularity | | | | measurement | | +===================+===============+=============+=============+ | High-performance | 100 ms | 1 min | 5 s | +-------------------+---------------+-------------+-------------+ | Standard | 1 s | 1 min | 1 min | +-------------------+---------------+-------------+-------------+ | Low-specification | 1 s | 15 min | 15 min | +-------------------+---------------+-------------+-------------+ Table 1: Example interval capabilities by equipment class (ES parameter) A client operating across a heterogeneous network cannot assume a uniform interval floor and must discover the capabilities of each network element individually. The interval capability model enables a client to select the highest-resolution intervals a given server supports for each operational objective, rather than applying a conservative lowest-common-denominator configuration across all devices. 2.3. Multi-Vendor Interoperability Equipment from different vendors supports different ranges and granularities of intervals, and may impose implementation-specific constraints on the relationship between sampling and collection intervals. In multi-vendor networks, clients must adapt to the capabilities of each element. Without a discovery mechanism, clients risk configuration failures, suboptimal monitoring, or system instability. A standardised capability model addresses these challenges and enables interoperability across diverse network environments. 3. Structure and the Sampling/Measurement Relationship The module follows a hierarchical structure that mirrors the measurement configuration model defined in [I-D.yoon-ippm-collection-measure], ensuring consistency between capability discovery and actual configuration. It has three levels: parameter profiles (collections of related parameters such as "itu- transport-maintenance-15min"), PM parameters (individual parameters such as ES, SES, BBE), and interval capabilities (supported sampling and collection intervals for each parameter). The model defines a key relationship: a collection interval MUST be a multiple of its corresponding sampling interval. This ensures that aggregation periods align with the data collection frequency. For Yoon & You Expires 7 January 2027 [Page 7] Internet-Draft PM Interval Capabilities YANG July 2026 example, if a server supports a 5-second sampling interval, valid collection intervals are 5s, 10s, 15s, 30s, 60s, and so on. The relationship is expressed structurally by nesting collection intervals within their corresponding sampling interval entry. For each interval, the model advertises: * min-value: minimum supported numeric value * max-value: maximum supported numeric value * units: list of supported time units (e.g., second, minute) * default-value: recommended default numeric value * default-unit: recommended default time unit * granularity: step size; valid values must be multiples of this Once a client knows the supported intervals, it can pair a single supported sampling interval with several supported collection intervals to serve different operational purposes for the same parameter. The "Use Cases" section of [I-D.yoon-ippm-collection-measure] gives concrete examples of such combinations, which motivate the ranges and granularities a server advertises here. 4. Capability Discovery and Configuration Workflow A client performs the following three steps to configure and access collection measurements correctly. Steps 2 and 3 use the companion model defined in [I-D.yoon-ippm-collection-measure]; Step 1 uses the model defined in this document. Yoon & You Expires 7 January 2027 [Page 8] Internet-Draft PM Interval Capabilities YANG July 2026 +-----------+ +-----------+ | Client | | Server | | (NMS/Ctrl)| | (NE) | +-----+-----+ +-----+-----+ | | | Step 1: Discover intervals | | [ietf-pm-interval-capabilities] | |---NETCONF get-data--------------> | |<--pm-interval-capabilities-------- | | | | Step 2: Configure measurement | | [ietf-pm-collection] | |---NETCONF edit-config-----------> | |<--OK------------------------------ | | | | Step 3: Access data | | [ietf-pm-collection] | | | | Option A: Pull (polling) | |---NETCONF get-data--------------> | |<--collection-value--------------- | | | | Option B: Push (YANG-Push) | |---establish-subscription--------> | |<--periodic-notifications---------- | | | Figure 2: Combined Capability Discovery and Data Access Workflow *Step 1 -- Discover interval capabilities (this document).* On session establishment, the server's YANG Library [RFC8525] and capability information indicate whether "ietf-pm-collection" and "ietf-pm-interval-capabilities" are both supported. The client queries the "pm-interval-capabilities" container, which this module augments into the "system-capabilities" container of "ietf-system- capabilities" [RFC9196]. Because that container is "config false", the augmented nodes inherit "config false" and reside in the operational datastore per the Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA) [RFC8342]. Querying the same anchor also returns any subscription and notification capabilities advertised there by "ietf-notification-capabilities" (Section 3 of [RFC9196]). From it, the client retrieves the supported sampling and collection intervals for each parameter and profile, including the minimum and maximum values, allowed units, and granularity. This runtime exposure follows the model described in [RFC9196] for advertising capabilities in operational state. The same information MAY also be published as static instance data using the format defined in [RFC9195]. The interval ranges advertised here correspond to the Measurement Timing Yoon & You Expires 7 January 2027 [Page 9] Internet-Draft PM Interval Capabilities YANG July 2026 aspect of the Performance Metric Specification described in Section 5.4.2 of [RFC6390]; this document provides the runtime discovery of those timing constraints, which the companion model [I-D.yoon-ippm-collection-measure] then applies when measurements are configured. *Step 2 -- Configure measurements (companion document).* The client configures the "pm-periodic-collection" container defined in "ietf- pm-collection" [I-D.yoon-ippm-collection-measure], selecting only sampling and collection interval values that Step 1 confirmed the server supports. This avoids configuration errors such as an unsupported interval being rejected during collection setup or subscription establishment. *Step 3 -- Access data (companion document).* The client accesses the collected PM data using either pull-based retrieval or push-based subscription, both supported by "ietf-pm- collection". For pull- based access, the client issues NETCONF "get-data" or RESTCONF GET operations against the operational datastore to read current measurement values. For push-based access, the client establishes a YANG-Push subscription per [RFC8639], [RFC8641], [RFC8640] to receive periodic or threshold-triggered notifications. 5. Interval Capabilities Example Figure 3 shows a NETCONF request that retrieves the interval capabilities for the ES parameter in the "itu-transport-maintenance- 15min" profile. Yoon & You Expires 7 January 2027 [Page 10] Internet-Draft PM Interval Capabilities YANG July 2026 itu-transport-maintenance-15min es 1s 1 1 second 1 second 1 collection-range 5 1440 minute 15 minute 5 Figure 3: Interval Capabilities Discovery Request Example Yoon & You Expires 7 January 2027 [Page 11] Internet-Draft PM Interval Capabilities YANG July 2026 The response indicates that the server supports 1-second sampling and a collection interval range of 5 to 1440 minutes with 5-minute granularity, with a default of 15 minutes. Using this information, the client can configure the ES parameter in "ietf-pm-collection" with any collection interval that is a multiple of 5 within the range 5 to 1440 minutes, knowing the server will accept the configuration. 6.

Manageability Considerations A server SHOULD ensure that the capabilities advertised in "pm- interval-capabilities" remain consistent with its actual ability to honour interval configurations in "ietf-pm-collection". If a server's resources change dynamically (e.g., due to load), it SHOULD update the operational datastore accordingly, and clients that have already configured measurements using previously advertised values SHOULD be notified through standard NETCONF or YANG-Push mechanisms. Operators SHOULD verify that the interval values configured in "ietf- pm-collection" fall within the ranges advertised in this module before deploying measurement configurations in production. 9. Security Considerations The YANG module defined in this document defines data nodes that are designed to be accessed via network management protocols such as NETCONF [RFC6241] or RESTCONF. The module augments the "system- capabilities" container of "ietf-system-capabilities" [RFC9196], which is "config false"; all nodes added by this module therefore inherit "config false" and reside in the operational datastore. Following the guidance in [RFC9196], this section documents the security considerations of the augmented nodes. The lowest NETCONF layer is the secure transport layer, and the mandatory-to-implement secure transport is Secure Shell (SSH). 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. Although all nodes are read-only, the capability information they expose can reveal vendor-specific implementation details about the equipment, such as supported interval ranges and granularities. Operators SHOULD restrict read access to authorised management clients to prevent unintended disclosure of device implementation characteristics.
