Hello,

Thanks for your work on this draft.  I'm a little confused with some text in
the draft and have a few questions.

1. The introductions says,
"This architectural framework identifies a set of conceptual datastores but
   it does not mandate that all network management protocols expose all
   these conceptual datastores.  This architecture is agnostic with
   regard to the encoding used by network management protocols."

As such, the data stores could be exposed for some implementations, using
whatever network management protocol (likely NetCONF or RESTCONF).  If this is
the case, why doesn't at least some of the security considerations template
apply for at least secure transport?

2. Section 5.3.4 - Is there any integrity protection on the origin information?
 If not, can it be added or is there a good reason why it’s not possible?  I
realize these are conceptual models that may or may not be exposed, but if
exposed and used, wouldn’t some integrity protection on this be helpful?

Thanks in advance!
