>From RFC 7223:

   module ietf-interfaces {
     ...
     container interfaces {
       ...
       list interface {
         key "name";

         leaf name {
           type string;
         }

         leaf description {
           type string;
         }
   ...

There is a top-level container node "interfaces", which contains a list
node "interface", which contains a sequence of list elements which
consist of groups of (a leaf "name", a leaf "description", etc.), which
elements are indexed by the value of the "name" leaf.
