NetJSON: data interchange format for networks

Abstract

NetJSON is a data interchange format based on JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) designed to describe the basic building blocks of layer2 and layer3 networking.

It defines several types of JSON objects and the manner in which they are combined to represent a network: configuration of devices, monitoring data, network topology and routing information.

Table of Contents

1. Introduction

NetJSON is a format for describing data about layer 2 and layer 3 networks using JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) [RFC7159] [RFC7159].

The format is concerned with the basic building blocks that compose a computer network (devices, monitoring data, routing, topology).

The concepts in NetJSON are not new; they are derived from existing conventions consolidated in open source projects related to the networking field, such as:

These concepts have been streamlined to encourage interoperability between network centric web applications using JSON.

1.1. Motivatons

Developing software that deals with networks is harder than it should be.

Developers have to take into account all the differences between vendors, operating systems, routing protocols, hardware and (when working with community networks) with the different approaches of each community.

Very often, each vendor develops an entire stack that works exclusively with its own hardware and software.

There exist many libraries and web apps for networking, but it is very hard to make them interoperable, that is, making them talk and understand one another with minimum effort.

This is an attempt to invert this trend, following the successful example of the GeoJSON format [GeoJSON].

By defining common data structures we can allow developers to focus on their goals instead of having to struggle with the differences of each vendor, firmware, routing protocol or community.

1.2. Requirements Language

The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 [RFC2119].

1.3. Conventions Used in This Document

The ordering of the members of any JSON object defined in this document MUST be considered irrelevant, as specified by RFC RFC7159 [RFC7159].

Some examples use the combination of a JavaScript single line comment (//) followed by an ellipsis (...) as placeholder notation for content deemed irrelevant by the authors. These placeholders must of course be deleted or otherwise replaced, before attempting to validate the corresponding JSON code example.

Whitespace is used in the examples inside this document to help illustrate the data structures, but is not required. Unquoted whitespace is not significant in JSON.
