Hi Juergen, 

We did checked RFC7317 when we wrote this draft, and found that (please correct me if I'm wrong) the features described in that RFC are mainly for the management of the device. 

As described in the -00 version of draft-dong-inventory, the "generic features and capabilities" means the networking functions and services that the network nodes and components can provide, e.g. IP unicast, multicast, ethernet bridging, mpls, traffic-engineering, etc. The set of the functions will be completed in future revision. Our intention is to abstract those control plane independent functions in this model, and let the protocol specific models to cover the details of each protocol.

Best regards,
Jie
