In EVPN, as Patrice described, the structure is:

      |     +--rw bgp-parameters
      |     |  +--rw common
      |     |     +--rw rd-rt* [route-distinguisher]
      |     |        +--rw route-distinguisher    string
      |     |        +--rw vpn-target* [rt-value]
      |     |           +--rw rt-value    string
      |     |           +--rw rt-type     bgp-rt-type

In L2VPN, the structure is:
             +--ro bgp-auto-discovery
             |  +--ro route-distinguisher?   string
             |  +--ro vpn-target* [rt-value]
             |  |  +--ro rt-value    string
             |  |  +--ro rt-type     bgp-rt-type

In L3VPN, the current structure is:
      +--rw route-distinguisher
      |  +--rw config
      |  |  +--rw rd?   string
      +--rw ipv4
      |  +--rw unicast
      |     +--rw route-targets
      |     |  +--rw config
      |     |  |  +--rw rts* [rt]
      |     |  |  |  +--rw rt         string
      |     |  |  |  +--rw rt-type?   Enumeration
      +--rw ipv6
         +--rw unicast
            +--rw route-targets
            |  +--rw config
            |  |  +--rw rts* [rt]
            |  |  |  +--rw rt         string
            |  |  |  +--rw rt-type?   enumeration

Hi Dhanendra and All,

Are we ok to move the route targets section out of the AF specific location to 
where RD is specified? If so, we can define the following common grouping:

Dhjain> I think one way to handle this is to have separate common groupings for 
RD and RT. So that we can retain AF level granularity for RT grouping for 
import/export rules.
[Xufeng] Yes. That will be the approach below, to have separate an RT grouping. 
The question is: do we need/want to retain the AF level granularity for RT 
rules?


Dhjain> Yes, because we have to configure Safi specific import/export rules 
separately with an L3 instance.  In the case of L2 the L2vpn and EVPN instances 
are separate from the top itself,  having separate RD/RT.

Thanks,
Dhanendra.

             |  +--ro route-distinguisher?   string
             |  +--ro vpn-target* [rt-value]
             |  |  +--ro rt-value    string
             |  |  +--ro rt-type     bgp-rt-type

Otherwise, we can only define a grouping without the RD:

             |  +--ro vpn-target* [rt-value]
             |  |  +--ro rt-value    string
             |  |  +--ro rt-type     bgp-rt-type
Thanks,

Given that there is no paucity of authors and contributors on these three BESS 
YANG models, I’d hope that one of them could provide a suggested common 
grouping. For now, I’ve added the route-target-type type on which there seems 
to be consensus.

Hi Folks,

Same here. Can we do something about it?  And agree, all 3 VPN models should 
have the same commonality.

I’d prefer common grouping indraft-ietf-rtgwg-routing-types and references from 
any other model using it

Hi Giles,
I will add the route-target-type type (enum of import, export, both) but for a 
general grouping, it appears there are some discrepancies between the 3 models. 
Assuming the types: route-discriminator, route-target, and route-target-type, 
can you provide a consensus grouping that all the models would use?
Thanks,
Acee

Hi Acee,

In general seems that for any BGP VPN (L2 or L3) you have an RD plus a list of 
RTs (which can be import, export or both) - so I’d prefer that to be defined in 
a shared grouping (more or less as per the structure Patrice gave below) than 
to force each model to redefine it.

Hi Patrice – we are working fervently on a common IETF routing types model. We 
have both route-target and router-distinguisher types defined there. The work 
is being done in the Routing WG. Our intension is to accelerate standardization 
so it doesn’t hold up standardization of the importing modules. Please comment 
as to whether you think this meets BESS requirements.

Thanks,

P.S. We plan an update next week but the RD and RT definitions have not changed.

Subject: [bess] BGP common parameter Yang module

Folks,

As part of EVPN, L2VPn and L3VPN Yang model, there is a “module” common to all 
3 Yang models.

      |     +--rw bgp-parameters
      |     |  +--rw common
      |     |     +--rw rd-rt* [route-distinguisher]
      |     |        +--rw route-distinguisher    string
      |     |        +--rw vpn-target* [rt-value]
      |     |           +--rw rt-value    string
      |     |           +--rw rt-type     bgp-rt-type


It will be interesting to create a common BGP parameter Yang module as shown 
above. I think it just makes sense.
However, there is a minor challenge; that module require a home (a draft).
I’m looking for feedback about the best place/draft for such a module.

Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Patrice Brissette
