Re: [Netconf] Agenda Request

Thanks Andy,

The draft targets charter item #6. I include it below for convenience.

One of the goals in the item is to not affect older clients I.e., backwards compatibility.
To achieve this, we have kept the mechanisms in 5277. E.g., the create-subscription RPC.
If a mechanism in 5277 is not in the draft it is an unintended omission.

I agree that the complete set of features in the draft is more complex than those in 5277.
Some features are explicitly stated in the charter item (e.g., multiple subscriptions over a session).
Others, like static subscription, are not mandatory in the yang with the new features.
What is mandatory and what is optional is open to discussion.
A server implementation may only advertise the capabilities corresponding to 5277.

On the point your bring about the authors, I am not familiar with it. Guidance from the chairs would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Alberto

6. Enhance RFC 5277 with the ability to delete subscriptions without
closing the client session, to modify existing subscriptions, and to
have multiple subscriptions on a established client session. These
changes should not affect older clients that do not support these
particular subscription requirements. The RPCs and the data models in
RFC 5277 should be converted to YANG.

Hi,

I don't know how much agreement there is on requirements or solution.

IMO, this draft should not be called RFC5277bis

 - all mechanisms from RFC 5277 have been removed
 - all RFC 5277 authors have been removed

IMO, the new work should not obsolete RFC 5277, as stated in the draft.
The existing notifications work as intended and there are several independent
implementations.

This new draft is radically different and much more complex to implement on
the client and server than RFC 5277.

This draft targets charter item #6 of the NETCONF WG.
It enhances RFC 5277, addressing limitations identified during the design
of draft-ietf-netconf-yang-push-01 and
draft-voit-netconf-restconf-yang-push-02

Goals of charter item #6, (all of them addressed in the draft):
- Ability to delete subscriptions without closing the client session.
- Ability to modify existing subscriptions.
- Ability to have multiple subscriptions on a client session.
- Do not affect older clients.
- Convert data models in RFC 5277 into YANG.

The draft also includes the following features:
- Subscription negotiation.
- Static subscriptions. (i.e., configuration-driven susbcription)
- Subscription suspension and termination by server.
- Support for multiple encodings (e.g., json).
