Hi Rob,

Interesting question.

It is hard to predict the expectations in this regard.
CLI, TL/1, YANG, DHCP?

I think that in the fullness of time, if the approach described in this document takes off, then I would expect to see YANG management available.
At the moment, however, I'm not aware of any work (presumably to augment BGP and/or SR models), so nothing to point at.

Compare and contrast with how VPN IDs are configured, and how long we lived with VPNs before we had a "standard" way to configure them.

Cheers,
Adrian
