Introduction Passive infrastructure refers to the underlying infrastructure of a telecommunication network that is not actively detectable or managable. It typically includes non-powered, non-communicating devices and components, such as cabinets, cables, connectors, splitters, antennas, distribution frames, etc., that are either hosted within an actively managed device or deployed along the physical pathway between active devices. Passive infrastructure serves as physical connections between active network devices, forming the backbone for network topology. As a crucial part of communication networks,the inventory information for these devices is also essential for inventory management. [I-D.draft-ietf-ivy-network-inventory-yang] incorporates the component concept from [RFC8348] to detail the equipment and holder information of a NE. This encompasses chassis, slot/sub-slot, board/ sub-board, port, and transceiver. As these items are recognized by the NE through internal protocols, the passive devices that cannot be discovered by the NE are thus not included in the modeling and needs to be addressed. [I-D.draft-ietf-ivy-network-inventory-location] emphasizes the relative and geographic location, e.g. equipment room, geo-loation for NE. A passive device is deployed in a certain location visible by the operator, and thus can reference the location defined by [I-D.draft-ietf-ivy-network-inventory-location]. This document focuses on modeling passive device inventory. The scope of this model is intended to be applicable to a varity types of networks, including but not limited to, IP/MPLS, optical access, optical transport and microwave networks. The methods for learning about these devices are implementation-specific and fall outside the scope of this document. 2. Examples of Passive Network Inventory Network segments built on different technologies share many common passive infrastructure components across the system. To explore the practical applications of these components, we can examine example scenarios for optical access networks, optical transport systems, and microwave networks. Yu, et al. Expires 9 January 2026 [Page 3] Internet-Draft Passive Network Inventory YANG Model July 2025 2.1. Passive Infrastructure in Optical Transport Networks Passive infrastructure in optical transport networks serves as the backbone for high-capacity data transmission. Key components include fiber optic cables, which act as the primary medium of long distance transmission. Optical connectors, patch panels, and splice enclosures are crucial for joining and managing fiber links. Couplers and splitters are used for signal distribution and combining. Within a phyical network element (NE) there are also presence of passive components. For example, fiber optic cables are used to connect the ports of different modules within the same or between different chassises. Attenuators, on the other hand, are placed at places through connectors or built-in modules for reducing optical power. Figure 1 illustrates a typical passive infrastructure for a point-to- point optical transport network.

Expires 9 January 2026 [Page 4] Internet-Draft Passive Network Inventory YANG Model July 2025 2.2. Passive Infrastructure in Optical Access Networks Passive Optical Networks (PONs) are a typical type of optical access network with significant passive infrastructure. The passive infrastructure in PON, often referred to as Optical Distribution Network (ODN), is the physical optical fiber-based network that connects the Optical Line Terminal (OLT) typically hosted in a central office to the Optical Network Unit/Terminal (ONU/ONT) typically deployed at the user's location. The ODN is equipped with one or multiple cascaded passive optical splitter thus creating a physical point-to-multipoint fiber network between an OLT port and the multiple connected ONU/ONTs. The feeder segment of an ODN refers to the cabling between the OLT and the first splitter, whereas the distribution segment of the ODN comprises the fiber cabling between the first and second splitter stage. The drop segment comprises the drop fibers between the ONT/ ONU and the second splitter stage. The PON ODN hence comprises optical fiber cables and splitters but also many auxiliary components, such as connectors, fiber distribution terminals (FDT), fiber access terminals (FAT), wavelength co-existence elements, etc. The passive components where the optical signals entering or leaving the optical fibers are split/ combined or cross-connected are typically hosted in mini cabinets e.g. at street corners, manholes, attached to utility poles, etc. Figure 2 illustrates a typical passive infrastructure for optical access networks. +--------------+ <--Drop--> | +---+ | Cable | | +++ |<-Feeder Cable-> <--Distr.--> /|----------+-+ONU | | ++* +---+ | Cable / | +-+ | |NE |\+++ | | Cable - Cable /|------------x |FDT | +---+ *++ +++|<---->/ \<----> / | \ | | (OLT) | + +|------| |------x/ | \|----------+-+ONU | +++ +++|------| |------x | cccccccc +-+ | +---+/*++ | | \ / \ | c /| c | | +*+ |ODF| | - \ | c / | c | | +++ +---+ | Joint \|-c-x | c | |NE | | Box FDT c \ | c<---Drop Cable-->+-+ONU | +---+ | c \|-c-----------------+-+ | (OLT) | c FDT file "ietf-nwi-passive-inventory@2025-07-07.yang" module ietf-nwi-passive-inventory { yang-version 1.1; namespace "urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-nwi-passive-inventory"; prefix nwi-passive; import ietf-network-inventory { prefix nwi; reference "RFCXXXX: A YANG Data Model for Network Inventory"; //RFC Editor: replace XXXX with actual RFC number //and remove this note } import ietf-ni-location { prefix nil; reference "RFCYYYY: A YANG Data Model for Network Inventory Location"; //RFC Editor: replace YYYY with actual RFC number //and remove this note } Yu, et al.

Manageability Considerations TBD. 9. Security Considerations The YANG module specified in this document defines a schema for data that is designed to be accessed via network management protocols such as NETCONF [RFC6241] or RESTCONF [RFC8040]. The lowest NETCONF layer is the secure transport layer, and the mandatory-to-implement secure transport is Secure Shell (SSH) [RFC6242]. The lowest RESTCONF layer is HTTPS, and the mandatory-to-implement secure transport is TLS Yu, et al. Expires 9 January 2026 [Page 21] Internet-Draft Passive Network Inventory YANG Model July 2025 [RFC8446]. The NETCONF access control model [RFC8341] provides the means to restrict access for particular NETCONF or RESTCONF users to a preconfigured subset of all available NETCONF or RESTCONF protocol operations and content. There are a number of data nodes defined in this YANG module that are writable/creatable/deletable (i.e., config true, which is the default). These data nodes may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. Write operations (e.g., edit-config) to these data nodes without proper protection can have a negative effect on network operations. Considerations in Section 8 of [RFC8795] are also applicable to their subtrees in the module defined in this document. Some of the readable data nodes in this YANG module may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. It is thus important to control read access (e.g., via get, get-config, or notification) to these data nodes. Considerations in Section 8 of [RFC8795] are also applicable to their subtrees in the module defined in this document. 10. IANA Considerations It is proposed to IANA to assign new URIs from the "IETF XML Registry" [RFC3688] as follows: URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-nwi-passive-inventory Registrant Contact: The IESG XML: N/A; the requested URI is an XML namespace.
