  • An XML-based equivalent version of YANG is called YIN
  • YANG uses a tree to define the hierarchy of data wherein each ‘node’ has a value or/and a set of child nodes
    • 4 types of nodes

      • container nodes


      • list nodes 
      • leaf nodes
      • leaf-list nodes

module Statement

see example from Line 1

  • YANG language defines models with modules and submodules
  • Takes one argument (module name) which is the identifier
  • Groups all statements that belong to the module
  • This module example contains the following statements for header information:

             see examples from Lines 2-16

      • yang-version statement
      • namespace statement prefix statement
      • revision statements


typedef Statement

see example from Line 12

  • a statement that allows a new type to be defined based on a base type which is a YANG built-in type


container Statement

see example from Line 18

  • defines interior (container node) in the schema tree
  • only contains child nodes, has no value
      • child nodes can be a leaf, lists, containers and leaf-lists


leaf Statement

see example from Line 27

  • defines a leaf node in the schema tree
  • its only one argument is the identifier
  • has no child nodes, has one value of a particular type
  • 'type statement' is mandatory
  • See optional substatements available in (Section 7.6 https://www.hjp.at/doc/rfc/rfc6020.html#sec_1)


list Statement

see example from Line 35

  • defines an interior data node (list node) in the schema tree
  • its only one argument is the identifier
  • follows a block of substatements:
  • mandatory substatements:
      • 'key statement'

leaf-list Statement

see example from Line 41

  • array of leaf nodes
  • one value of a particular type per leaf
  • its only one argument is the identifier

OpenDayLight Yang tools recognises YANG extensions

  • Contains interface which has methods to access data of a YANG extension statement
