[The justification here is that IETF standard models have > to be able to assume that the applied configuration will be available via a > separate applied configuration (or operational state) datastore or > equivalent mechanism.] Are there any published models that have "applied configuration nodes"? What is actually an "applied configuration node"? Perhaps an example helps: Are you trying to suggest that /if:interfaces-state/if:interface/ipv4/address/ip is now made illegal and we have right now no way to represent operationally used IP addresses? That sounds somewhat broken to me. > 2) All IETF Models MUST put "derived state and statistics" into a separate > namespace from the configuration (i.e. top level "feature" and > "feature-state").

And even then, why MUST derived state and statistics be in a separate tree? And can we please avoid 'feature' and 'feature-state' since YANG uses the term 'feature' in a very different sense. > 3) Both of these rules should be written into rfc6087bis.

I do not see how the proposed rules achieve the goals you stated. Again, examples may help: /if:interfaces-state/if:interface/ipv4/address/ip This can be implemented today. It may not be necessary anymore some time in the future if we have a revised datastore model plus matching solutions. The upgrade path from this is, however, extremly simple: We change the status of the definition of this object to deprecated. Bottom line: I think we should continue to follow the model used by the ietf-interfaces model and the ietf-ip model until we have a better solution in place (and subsequently we can deprecate objects that became redundant). /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/>
