Reshad: Ah.. thank you for clarifying the questions. The IP addresses are treated as attributes for the port node. My understanding is that these attributes help store information if the yang model is used stand-alone without the network layer model. Of course, smart implementations will internally validate these values.

I wasn’t questioning the need for multiple IP addresses, I just found it odd to have IP address(es) in an L2 grouping. Regards, Reshad.

I’m looking at the IEEE yang model for 802-1Qcp (2018 update to IEEE 802.1Q), but you can get the pre-release draft at (only editorial nits are missing) at: http://www.ieee802.org/1/files/private/cp-drafts/d2/802-1Qcp-d2-2.pdf The reason there are multiple IP addresses is that the single LAN can have multiple IP addresses assigned to it. In may routers/switches the single MAC port will have multiple virtual ports. (cisco started this concept in the 1990s). Thanks for the help!

However, I’m confused. Where do you see the IP address in the Yang snippet I sent? It is a MAC Address (type yang:mac-address)? If the system port allows IP, it will respond to the ARP request with the appropriate IP/MAC match in an ARP reply. In real implementations I2rs implementers examined, * L2 port with mgmt-mac-address seems to be used to only send LLDP packets, * L2 port with sys-mac-address seems to be used for management using TCP/IP. If we swap the names, it did not work with the initial implementers of the yang model. The I2RS Topology models are used for operational management of switches and routers as logical units. Also, your response does not seem to match my questions: 1) Is this the normal assumption for yang models? 2) If not, what is the normal assumption on system mac addresses? 3) Am I correct that switches with more than 1 system MAC will augment their basic yang model with the second system MAC Address? I’m sorry to bother you but this document is being reviewed by the IESG tomorrow (Thursday) and I am the shepherd. I do not know how to answer some of the yang related questions regarding multiple system ports to exchange management configuration on. I had thought that netconf/restconf would be exchanged over the same ports so the yang doctors would know what the normal custom should be. Thanks again!

I think use of term system might be a bit misleading if that’s the case, mgmt-mac-address might be better. Also, it is odd to have an IP address in an L2 grouping.

My understanding is that most switches have 1 system mac address for network management. Therefore, the L2 topology model supports one. Question for Yang Doctors: 1) Is this the normal assumption for yang models? 2) If not, what is the normal assumption on system mac addresses? 3) Am I correct that switches with more than 1 system MAC will augment their basic yang model with the second system MAC Address.
