I think it is crucial to separate (a) what protocols do today and (b) what protocols might do at some time in the future. The current protocol reality, that is (a), paired with the reality of network interfaces has lead to the (/interfaces, /interfaces-state) design pattern and until we have (b) in place I do not think we have really an alternative for the (/interfaces, /interfaces-state) design pattern. If you have config and state are in the same tree, you simply can't represent certain things that exist in reality. A single tree may look 'simpler' but in several cases also simply 'unusable'. We did not particularly like the (/interfaces, /interfaces-state) design but it was the only solution that seemed to work for all cases given the protocol reality we were in. /js -- Juergen Schoenwaelder Jacobs University Bremen gGmbH Phone: +49 421 200 3587 Campus Ring 1 | 28759 Bremen | Germany Fax: +49 421 200 3103 <http://www.jacobs-university.de/>
