YANG [RFC7950] is a data modeling language used to model configuration and state data manipulated by the Network Configuration Protocol (NETCONF) [RFC6241]. The YANG language supports a small set of built-in data types and provides mechanisms to derive other types from the built-in types.¶
This document defines a collection of common data types. The definitions are organized into two YANG modules:¶
The "ietf-yang-types" module defines generally useful data types such as types for counters, gauges, date and time related types, or types for common string values such as uuids, dotted-quads, or language tags.¶
The "ietf-inet-types" module defines data types relevant for the Internet protocol suite such as IP address related types, domain-name and host-name types, uri and email types, as well as types for values in common protocol fields such as port numbers.¶
The initial version of these YANG modules were published as [RFC6021]. The first revision of [RFC6021], published as [RFC6991], added several new type definitions to the YANG modules. This second revision adds further new type definitions and addresses errata 4076 [ERR4076] and 5105 [ERR5105] of [RFC6991]. Furthermore, the yang-identifier definition has been aligned with YANG 1.1 [RFC7950] and some pattern statements have been improved. For further details, see the revision statements of the YANG modules in Section 3 and Section 4. A brief overview of all types and when they were introduced can be found in Section 2. Additional type definitions may be added in the future by submitting proposals to the NETMOD working group.¶
This document uses the YANG terminology defined in Section 3 of [RFC7950].¶
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here.¶
Table 1 and Table 2 list the types defined in the YANG modules "ietf-yang-types" and "ietf-inet-types". For each type, the name of the type, the base type it was derived from, and the RFC introducing the type is listed.¶

Some types have an equivalent Structure of Management Information Version 2 (SMIv2) [RFC2578] [RFC2579] data type. A YANG data type is equivalent to an SMIv2 data type if the data types have the same set of values and the semantics of the values are equivalent.¶
