Abstract:
JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) has been a popular choice as the
message encoding for many network protocols. Meanwhile, there are
broad interests in the networking community to use the YANG data
modeling language [RFC6020] to define data store and protocol
messages, so that one can use YANG related tools such as the
OpenDayLight Controller. Although YANG itself is XML based, there
have been efforts to model JSON content using YANG
[draft-ietf-netmod-yang-json-01]
This document explores the conditions under which the messages of a
JSON based protocol can have a syntactically equivalent and hence
interoperable YANG model. In particular, this document shows that
any JSON protocol message with stand-alone non-object JSON values,
certain JSON arrays of elements of mixed types, or non-keyword keys
in key-value pairs cannot have a syntactically equivalent YANG model.
It also applies these conditions to the ALTO and CDNi protocol
messages as examples.
