       Semantic Metadata Annotation for Network Anomaly Detection
             draft-netana-nmop-network-anomaly-semantics-00

Abstract

   This document explains why and how semantic metadata annotation helps
   to test, validate and compare outlier detection, supports supervised
   and semi-supervised machine learning development, enables data
   exchange among network operators, vendors and academia and make
   anomalies for humans apprehensible.  The proposed semantics uniforms
   the network anomaly data exchange between and among operators and
   vendors to improve their network outlier detection systems.

1.  Introduction

   Network Anomaly Detection Architecture [Ahf23] provides an overall
   introduction into how anomaly detection is being applied into the IP
   network domain and which operational data is needed.  It approaches
   the problem space by automating what a Network Engineer would
   normally do when verifying a network connectivity service.  Monitor
   from different network plane perspectives to understand wherever one
   network plane affects another negatively.

   In order to fine tune outlier detection, the results provided as
   analytical data need to be reviewed by a Network Engineer.  Keeping
   the human out of the monitoring but still involving him in the alert
   verification loop.

   This document describes what information is needed to understand the
   output of the outlier detection for a Network Engineer, but also at
   the same time is semantically structured that it can be used for
   outlier detection testing by comparing the results systematically and
   set a baseline for supervised machine learning which requires labeled
   operational data.

2.  Outlier Detection

   Outlier Detection, also known as anomaly detection, describes a
   systematic approach to identify rare data points deviating
   significantly from the majority.  Outliers can manifest as single
   data point or as a sequence of data points.  There are multiple ways
   in general to classify anomalies, but for the context of this draft,
   the following three classes are taken into account:

   Global outliers:  An outlier is considered "global" if its behaviour
      is outside the entirety of the considered data set.  For example,
      if the average dropped packet count is between 0 and 10 per minute
      and a small time-window gets the value 1000, this is considered a
      global anomaly.

   Contextual outliers:  An outlier is considered "contextual" if its
      behaviour is within a normal (expected) range, but it would not be
      expected based on some context.  Context can be defined as a
      function of multiple parameters, such as time, location, etc.  For
      example, the forwarded packet volume overnight reaches levels
      which might be totally normal for the daytime, but anomalous and
      unexpected for the nighttime.

   Collective outliers:  An outlier is considered "collective" if the
      behaviour of each single data point that are part of the anomaly
      are within expected ranges (so they are not anomalous it either a
      contextual or a global sense), but the group, taking all the data
      points together, is.  Note that the group can be made within a
      single time series (a sequence of data points is anomalous) or
      across multiple metrics (e.g. if looking at two metrics together,
      the combined behavior turns out to be anomalous).  In Network
      Telemetry time series, one way this can manifest is that the
      amount of network paths and interface state changes matches the
      time range when the forwarded packet volume decreases as a group.

   For each outlier a score between 0 and 1 is being calculated.  The
   higher the value, the higher the probability that the observed data
   point is an outlier.  Anomaly detection: A survey [VAP09] gives
   additional details on anomaly detection and its types.

3.  Data Mesh

   The Data Mesh [Deh22] Architecture distinguishes between operational
   and analytical data.  Operational data refers to collected data from
   operational systems.  While analytical data refers to insights gained
   from operational data.

   In terms of network observability, semantics of operational network
   metrics are defined by IETF and are categorized as described in the
   Network Telemetry Framework [RFC9232] in the following three
   different network planes:

   Management Plane:  Time series data describing the state changes and
      statistics of a network node and its components.  For example,
      Interface state and statistics modelled in ietf-interfaces.yang
      [RFC8343]

   Control Plane:  Time series data describing the state and state
      changes of network reachability.  For example, BGP VPNv6 unicast
      updates and withdrawals exported in BGP Monitoring Protocol (BMP)
      [RFC7854] and modeled in BGP [RFC4364]

   Forwarding Plane:  Time series data describing the forwarding
      behavior of packets and its data-plane context.  For example,
      dropped packet count modelled in IPFIX entity
      forwardingStatus(IE89) [RFC7270] and packetDeltaCount(IE2)
      [RFC5102] and exportet with IPFIX [RFC7011].

   In terms of network observability, semantics of analytical data
   refers to incident notifications or service level indicators.  For
   example the incident notification described in Section 7.2 of
   [I-D.feng-opsawg-incident-management], the health status and symptoms
   described in the Service Assurance Intend Based Networking [RFC9418],
   the precision availability metrics defined in [I-D.ietf-ippm-pam] or
   network anomalies and its symptoms as described in this document.

4.  Observed Symptoms

   In this section observed network symptoms are specified and
   categorized according to the following scheme:

   Action:  Which action the network node performed for a packet in the
      Forwarding Plane, a path or adjacency in the Control Plane or
      state or statistical changes in the Management Plane.  For
      Forwarding Plane we distinguish between missing, where the drop
      occured outside the measured network node, drop and on-path delay,
      which was measured on the network node.  For Control Plane we
      distinguish between reachability, which refers to a change in the

      routing or forwarding information base (RIB/FIB) and adjcacency
      which refers to a change in peering or link-layer resolution.  For
      Management Plane we refer to state or statistical changes on
      interfaces.

   Reason:  For each action, one or more reasons describe why this
      action was used.  For Drops in Forwarding Plane we distinguish
      between Unreachable because network layer reachability information
      was missing, Administered because an administrator configured a
      rule preventing the forwarding for this packet and Corrupt where
      the network node was unable to determine where to forward to due
      to packet, software or hardware error.  For on-path delay we
      distinguish between Minimum, Average and Maximum Delay for a given
      flow.  For Control Plane wherever a the reachability was updated
      or withdrawn or the adjcacency was established or teared down.
      For Management Plane we distinguish between interfaces states up
      and down, and statistical erros, discards or unknown protocol
      counters.

   Cause:  For each reason one or more cause describe the cause why the
      network node has chosen that action.

   Table 1 consolidates for the forwarding plane a list of common
   symptoms with their Actions, Reasons and Causes.

5.  Semantic Metadata

   Metadata adds additional context to data.  For instance, in networks
   the software version of a network node where Management Plane metrics
   are obtained from as described
   in[I-D.claise-opsawg-collected-data-manifest].  Where in Semantic
   Metadata the meaning or ontology of the annotated data is being
   described.  In this section a YANG model is defined in order to
   provide a structure for the metadata related to anomalies happening
   in the network.  The module is intended to describe the metadata used
   to "annotate" the operational data collected from the network nodes,
   which can include time series data and logs, as well as other forms
   of data that is "time-bounded".  The aspects discussed so far in this
   document are grouped under the concept of "incident" which represents
   a collection of symptoms.  The incident overall has a set of
   parameters that describe the overall behavior of the network in a
   given time-window including all the spotted symptoms (network
   anomalies).

5.1.  Overview of the Model for the Symptom Semantic Metadata

   Figure 1 contains the YANG tree diagram [RFC8340] of the ietf-
   symptom-semantic-metadata module.  For each symptom, the following
   parameters have been assigned: A unique ID for identification, a
   description of the symptom, a list of affected metrics or counters,
   atart and end time to specify the time-window, a confident score
   indicating how accurate the symptom was detected, a concern score
   indicating how critical the symptom is, the source indicating if it
   has been identified by a network expert or an algorithm, the tags
   with key value where Action, Reason and Cause can be annotated as
   described in previous section.
