With your definition of 'value' it is not the same, with my definition of 'value' it is the same. For me, the value space of the ipv6-prefix type is the set of all possible ipv6-prefixes. And with this, 2001:db8::/64 and 2001:db8::1/64 are two different textual representations that resolve to the same prefix, i.e., the same value in the value space. I would go even further and make the following distinction between - textual representations of values of a type - the value space of a type - internal representations of values of a type I think we have this discussion because you likely map the textual representations of a prefix into an internal representation that can capture details that are (in my model) not relevant for the value space itself. (Even for the case of simple signed integers, it depends on my internal number representation whether normalizing +7 to 7 causes a change of the internal representation or not.) Once we add support to YANG for binary encodings, we will get additional complexity since we will map the value space to multiple 'external' representations and for the same type (=value space), there may be differences how 'external' representations map to the value space. A binary representation of an IPv6 address may have a 1:1 mapping to the value space while our textual representation already has a n:1 relationship. Or we go into the direction to require that all 'external' representations must only have 1:1 relationships, i.e., only textual representations in canonical format will be legal.
