The Internet Protocol (IP) has become the global standard in any computer network, independent of the connectivity to the Internet. Generally, an IP address is used to identify an interface on a network device.

NO LONGER ACTIVE DRAFT - RFC 8519 defines a YANG data model for Access Control Lists (ACLs). This document discusses a set of extensions that fix many of the limitations of the ACL model as initially defined in RFC 8519.

NO LONGER ACTIVE DRAFT - This document defines a YANG data model for representing an abstract view of the provider network topology that contains Intermediate System to intermediate System (ISIS) information. This document augments the 'ietf-network' data model by adding ISIS concepts.

The forwarding of packets in today's networks has long evolved beyond ensuring mere reachability of the receiving endpoint.

Historically, the meaning of an IP address has been to identify an interface on a network device.

Network Slicing (NS) is an integral part of Service Provider networks. The IETF has produced several YANG data models to support the Software-Defined Networking and network slice architecture and YANG- based service models for network slice (NS) instantiation. This document describes the r

The data model for network topologies defined in RFC 8345 introduces vertical layering relationships between networks that can be augmented to cover network and service topologies.

This document defines an L2VPN Network Model (L2NM) that can be used to manage the provisioning of Layer 2 Virtual Private Network (L2VPN) services within a network (e.g., a service provider network).

As a complement to the Layer 3 Virtual Private Network Service Model (L3SM), which is used for communication between customers and service providers, this document defines an L3VPN Network Model (L3NM) that can be used for the provisioning of Layer 3 Virtual Private Network (L3VPN) services withi

This document defines a common YANG module that is meant to be reused by various VPN-related modules such as Layer 3 VPN and Layer 2 VPN network models.

This document describes the principles of traffic engineering (TE) in the Internet.

Network abstraction is a technique that can be applied to a network domain to obtain a view of potential connectivity across the network by utilizing a set of policies to select network resources. Network slicing is an approach to network operations that builds on   the concept of netwo

This document describes network slicing in the context of networks built from IETF technologies.
