Abstract

This document specifies the initial version of a YANG module"iana-tunnel-type", which contains a collection of IANA-maintainedYANG identities used as interface types for tunnel interfaces. Themodule reflects the "tunnelType" registry maintained by IANA. Thelatest revision of this YANG module can be obtained from the IANAwebsite.

Tunnel type values are not directly added to the Tunnel InterfaceTypes YANG module; they must instead be added to the "tunnelType"IANA registry. Once a new tunnel type registration is made by IANAfor a new tunneling scheme or even an existing one that is notalready listed in the current registry (e.g., LISP, NSH), IANA willupdate the Tunnel Interface Types YANG module accordingly.

Some of the IETF-defined tunneling techniques are not listed in thecurrent IANA registry. It is not the intent of this document toupdate the existing IANA registry with a comprehensive list of tunneltechnologies. Registrants must follow the IETF registration procedurefor interface types whenever a new tunnel type is needed.
