RPC Operations

This page aims at describing which data should be read when a user uses a RPC method on sweetcomb control agent.

Types of data

  • Configuration data/desired state: "Configuration data is the set of writable data that is required to transform a system from its initial default state into its current state." RFC6241
  • Operational data: "Operational state data is a set of data that has been obtained by the system at runtime and influences the system's behavior similar to configuration data. In contrast to configuration data, operational state is transient and modified by interactions with internal components or other systems via specialized protocols." RFC6244

Original Model of Datastores as described per RFC6241:

         +-------------+                 +-----------+
         | <candidate> |                 | <startup> |
         |  (ct, rw)   |<---+       +--->| (ct, rw)  |
         +-------------+    |       |    +-----------+
                |           |       |           |
                |         +-----------+         |
                +-------->| <running> |<--------+
                          | (ct, rw)  |
                          +-----------+
                                |
                                v
                         operational state  <--- control plane
                             (cf, ro)
         ct = config true; cf = config false
         rw = read-write; ro = read-only
         boxes denote datastores

Source: RFC8342

YANG tree architectures

Second, there are three types of organization of YANG trees:

  • Openconfig style: 'config' and 'state' containers
  • IETF withtout NMDA: 'config' and 'state' top level trees
  • IETF with NMDA:

In order to know if your IETF support NMDA, please use YangCatalog.

RPC types

Third, as sweetcomb only supports NETCONF and gNMI, there are 5 RPCs supported:

  • gNMI get
  • gNMI set
  • NETCONF get
  • NETCONF get-config
  • NETCONF edit-config

Data stores

Fourth, there are many available datastores:

  • startup - RFC6241 : Automatically handled by sysrepo and netopeer
  • candidate - RFC6241: Automatically handled by sysrepo and netopeer
  • running - - RFC6241 : This is when changes are commited to running that VPP is configured

Openconfig style

Illustrate where data is fetched depending on the RPC used for an Openconfig model.
