Hi Wuqin,

Some initial comments.

1.  I feel it is better if all the datastores used for source / target should be datastore-ref used from ietf-datastore module 
[Qin]: Sounds good point, but the datastores used for source / target aligns with ones defined in RFC6241, shall we align with RFC6241 or RFC8342?

2.  I think the factory-restore may be helpful for the ephemeral data-stores, if they want to revert the configurations (without a reboot).
[Qin]: Yes, factory-restore operation can help ephemeral datastore to revert the configuration to factory default setting without reboot or restart.
We can add ephemeral as target in the model.

3.  ietf-restconf-restore why is it a RESTCONF module... Why any other protocol cannot use it ?
[Qin]: Good point, it is also applicable to NETCONF or others, maybe we should change module name into ietf-factory-restore.
NETCONF has already defined <delete-config> and can use <delete-config> to return 
The device to factory defaults, but <delete-config> is only applicable to <startup>.

4.  RPC names factory-recovery vs factory-restore , which is correct ?
[Qin]:Good catch, we will fix this terminology inconsistency issue.

5.  Section 1
 "especially when the RESTCONF server is implemented in a
   device that does not have NETCONF support."
   ==> Better to add that Section 8.7.5.1 of RFC 6241 provides a mechanism to reset to factory defaults. 
   Else users may not know why it is OK, if NETCONF is supported.
[Qin]: Good point and will clarify this in the next version.

With Regards,
Rohit R Ranade

Hi, All:
We submit a new I-D to discuss "Factory default Setting Capability for RESTCONF"
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-wu-netconf-restconf-factory-restore-00
The abstract:
   This document defines capability based extension to RESTCONF protocol
   that allows RESTCONF client to configure newly deployed devices with
   just its preconfigured initial state (i.e., factory default settings)
   during zero touch bootstrapping process or restore the configuration
   to its preconfigured initial state or system restore point either
   during device rooting process or at the time of system fatal error or
   malfunction.
Your comments and suggestions are welcome.
