    <abstract>
      <t>This document defines a YANG data model for configuring and
        managing routing policies in a vendor-neutral way and based on
        actual operational practice.  The model provides a generic policy
        framework which can be augmented with protocol-specific policy
        configuration.

    <section title="Introduction" anchor="intro">
      <t>This document describes a <xref target="RFC6020">YANG</xref> <xref target="RFC7950"/> data model for routing policy configuration based on operational usage and best practices in a variety of service provider networks.  The model is intended to be vendor-neutral, in order to allow operators to manage policy configuration in a consistent, intuitive way in heterogeneous environments with routers supplied by multiple vendors.
      </t>
      <t>The YANG modules in this document conform to the Network Management Datastore
         Architecture (NMDA)<xref target="I-D.ietf-netmod-revised-datastores"/>.
      </t>
      <section title = "Goals and approach" anchor="goals">
      <t>
      This model does not aim to be feature complete -- it is a
      subset of the policy configuration parameters available
      in a variety of vendor implementations, but supports widely
      used constructs for managing how routes are imported,
      exported, and modified across different routing protocols.
      The model development approach has been to examine actual
      policy configurations in use across a number of operator
      networks.  Hence the focus is on enabling policy configuration
      capabilities and structure that are in wide use.
      </t>

      <t>
      Despite the differences in details of policy expressions and
      conventions in various vendor implementations, the model
      reflects the observation that a relatively simple condition-action
      approach can be readily mapped to several existing vendor
      implementations, and also gives operators an intuitive and
      straightforward way to express policy without sacrificing
      flexibility.  A side affect of this design decision is that
      legacy methods for expressing policies are not considered.  Such
      methods could be added as an augmentation to the model if
      needed.
      </t>

     <t>
      Consistent with the goal to produce a data model that is vendor
      neutral, only policy expressions that are deemed to be widely
      available in existing major implementations are included in the
      model.  Those configuration items that are only available from
      a single implementation are omitted from the model with the
      expectation they will be available in separate vendor-provided
      modules that augment the current model.

      The routing policy module has three main parts:
      </t>
      <t>
        <list style="symbols">
          <t>
          A generic framework to express policies as sets of related
          conditions and actions. This includes match sets and actions
          that are useful across many routing protocols.
          </t>
          <t>
          A structure that allows routing protocol models to add
          protocol-specific policy conditions and actions though
          YANG augmentations.  There is a complete example of this
          for <xref target="RFC4271">BGP</xref> policies in the proposed vendor-neutral
          <xref target="I-D.ietf-idr-bgp-model">BGP data model</xref>.
          </t>
          <t>
          A reusable grouping for attaching import and export rules in
          the context of routing configuration for different
          protocols, VRFs, etc.  This also enables creation of policy
          chains and expressing default policy behavior.
          </t>
        </list>
      </t>
      <t>
        The module makes use of the standard Internet types,

    <section title="Route policy expression" anchor="expression">
      <t>
      Policies are expressed as a sequence of top-level policy
      definitions each of which consists of a sequence of policy statements.
      Policy statements in turn consist of simple condition-action
      tuples. Conditions may include multiple match or comparison
      operations, and similarly, actions may effect multiple changes to
      route attributes, or indicate a final disposition of accepting
      or rejecting the route.  This structure is shown below.

        The models provides a set of generic sets that can be used for
        matching in policy conditions.  These sets are applicable for
        route selection across  multiple routing protocols. They may be
        further augmented by
        protocol-specific models which have their own defined sets. The

          </t>
          <t>
            neighbor sets - define a set of neighboring nodes by their
            IP addresses. These sets are used for selecting routes based on the
            neighbors advertising the routes.

      <section title="Policy conditions" anchor="conditions">
        <t>
        Policy statements consist of a set of conditions and actions
        (either of which may be empty).  Conditions are used to
        match route attributes against a defined set (e.g., a prefix
        set), or to compare attributes against a specific value.
        </t>

        <t>
        Match conditions may be further modified using the
        match-set-options configuration which allows operators to
        change the behavior of a match. Three options are supported:
        </t>
        <t>
          <list style="symbols">
            <t>ALL - match is true only if the given value matches
              all members of the set.
            </t>
            <t>ANY - match is true if the given value matches any
              member of the set.
            </t>
            <t>INVERT - match is true if the given value does not
              match any member of the given set.
            </t>
          </list>
        </t>
        <t>
        Not all options are appropriate for matching against all
        defined sets (e.g., match ALL in a prefix set does not make sense).
        In the model, a restricted set of match options is used where
        applicable.
        </t>

        <t>
        Comparison conditions may similarly use options to change how
	      route attributes should be tested, e.g., for equality or
	      inequality, against a given value.
        </t>

        <t>
        While most policy conditions will be added by individual
        routing protocol models via augmentation, this routing policy
        model includes several generic match conditions and also the
        ability to test which protocol or mechanism installed a route
        (e.g., BGP, IGP, static, etc.).  The conditions included in
        the model are shown below.

      <section title="Policy actions" anchor="actions">

        <t>
        When policy conditions are satisfied, policy actions are used
        to set various attributes of the route being processed, or to
        indicate the final disposition of the route, i.e., accept or
        reject.
        </t>

        <t>
        Similar to policy conditions, the routing policy model includes
        generic actions in addition to the basic route
        disposition actions.  These are shown below.

      <section title="Policy subroutines" anchor="subroutines">

        <t>
        Policy 'subroutines' (or nested policies) are
        supported by allowing policy statement conditions to reference
        other policy definitions using the call-policy configuration.
        Called policies apply their conditions and
        actions before returning to the calling policy statement and
        resuming evaluation.  The outcome of the called policy affects
        the evaluation of the calling policy.  If the called policy
        results in an accept-route (either explicit or by default),
        then the subroutine returns an effective boolean true value to
        the calling policy.  For the calling policy, this is equivalent
        to a condition statement evaluating to a true value and
        evaluation of the policy continues
        (see <xref target="evaluation"></xref>).  Note that
        the called policy may also modify attributes of the route in
        its action statements. Similarly, a reject-route action
        returns false and the calling policy evaluation will be
        affected accordingly. Consequently, a subroutine cannot
        explicitly accept or reject a route. Rather it merely provides
        an indication that 'call-policy' condition returns boolean true
        or false indicating whether or not the condition matches. Route 
        acceptance or rejection is solely determined by the top-level
        policy.
        </t>

      	<t>
      	Note that the called policy may itself call other policies (subject
      	to implementation limitations).  The model does not prescribe a
        nesting depth because this varies among implementations. For example,
        some major implementation may only support a single level of
        subroutine recursion. As with any routing policy construction, care
        must be taken with nested policies to ensure that the effective
        return value results in the intended behavior.  Nested policies
        are a convenience in many routing policy constructions but
        creating policies nested beyond a small number of levels (e.g., 2-3)
        should be discouraged.
        </t>

      </section>

    </section>

    <section title="Policy evaluation" anchor="evaluation">

      <t>
      Evaluation of each policy definition proceeds by evaluating its
      corresponding individual policy statements in order.  When a
      condition statement in a policy statement is satisfied, the
      corresponding action statement is executed.  If the action
      statement has either accept-route or reject-route actions,
      evaluation of the current policy definition stops, and no further
      policy definitions in the chain are evaluated.
      </t>

      <t>
      If the condition is not satisfied, then evaluation proceeds to
      the next policy statement.  If none of the policy statement
      conditions are satisfied, then evaluation of the current policy
      definition stops, and the next policy definition in the chain is
      evaluated.  When the end of the policy chain is reached, the
      default route disposition action is performed (i.e., reject-route
      unless an alternate default action is specified for the
      chain).
      </t>

    </section>

    <section title="Applying routing policy" anchor="usage">

      <t>
      Routing policy is applied by defining and attaching policy chains
      in various routing contexts.  Policy chains are sequences of
      policy definitions (described in <xref target="expression">
      </xref>) that have an associated direction (import or export)
      with respect to the routing context in which they are defined.
      The routing policy model defines an apply-policy grouping that
      can be imported and used by other models.  As shown below, it
      allows definition of import and export policy chains, as well as
      specifying the default route disposition to be used when no
      policy definition in the chain results in a final decision.

      both import and export policies.

    <section title="Routing protocol-specific policies" anchor="augment">

      <t>
      Routing models that require the ability to apply routing policy
      may augment the routing policy model with protocol or other
      specific policy configuration.  The routing policy model
      assumes that additional defined sets, conditions, and actions
      may all be added by other models.
      </t>

      <t>
      An example of this is shown below, in which the BGP configuration
      model in <xref target="I-D.ietf-idr-bgp-model"></xref>
      adds new defined sets to match on community values or AS paths.
      The model similarly augments BGP-specific conditions and actions
      in the corresponding sections of the routing policy model.

      alternate transport or data encoding (e.g., JSON over HTTPS)
      would require similar mechanisms for authenticating and

  description
    "This module describes a YANG model for routing policy
     configuration. It is a limited subset of all of the policy
     configuration parameters available in the variety of vendor
     implementations, but supports widely used constructs for
     managing how routes are imported, exported, and modified across
     different routing protocols.  This module is intended to be used
     in conjunction with routing protocol configuration modules
     (e.g., BGP) defined in other models.

     Route policy expression:

     Policies are expressed as a set of top-level policy definitions,
     each of which consists of a sequence of policy statements.
     Policy statements consist of simple condition-action tuples.
     Conditions may include mutiple match or comparison operations,
     and similarly actions may be multitude of changes to route
     attributes or a final disposition of accepting or rejecting the
     route.

     Route policy evaluation:

     Policy definitions are referenced in routing protocol
     configurations using import and export configuration statements.
     The arguments are members of an ordered list of named policy
     definitions which comprise a policy chain, and optionally, an
     explicit default policy action (i.e., reject or accept).

     Evaluation of each policy definition proceeds by evaluating its
     corresponding individual policy statements in order.  When a
     condition statement in a policy statement is satisfied, the
     corresponding action statement is executed.  If the action
     statement has either accept-route or reject-route actions,
     policy evaluation of the current policy definition stops, and
     no further policy definitions in the chain are evaluated.

     If the condition is not satisfied, then evaluation proceeds to
     the next policy statement.  If none of the policy statement
     conditions are satisfied, then evaluation of the current policy
     definition stops, and the next policy definition in the chain is
     evaluated.  When the end of the policy chain is reached, the
     default route disposition action is performed (i.e.,
     reject-route unless an alternate default action is specified
     for the chain).

     Policy 'subroutines' (or nested policies) are supported by
     allowing policy statement conditions to reference another policy
     definition which applies conditions and actions from the
     referenced policy before returning to the calling policy
     statement and resuming evaluation.  If the called policy
     results in an accept-route (either explicit or by default), then
     the subroutine returns an effective true value to the calling
     policy.  Similarly, a reject-route action returns false.  If the
     subroutine returns true, the calling policy continues to
     evaluate the remaining conditions (using a modified route if the
     subroutine performed any changes to the route).";
