Re: [nmrg] [NMRG] Reminder: RG Last Call for draft-irtf-nmrg-ibn-concepts-definitions

[Jérôme François <[e-mail]>]

Dear all,

Below, the review done by a colleague in CC, Rémi Badonnel (University of Lorraine).

"Very interesting and instructive draft on intent-based management. Some minor 
comments:
-In addition to the examples, would it make sense to provide some 
counter-examples, of what is not an intent (if possible, beyond the notion of 
policies)?
-I fully agree that explainability is an important IBN function, in particular 
from a legal/ethical viewpoint.
-"Policy-based management can be considered an imperative management paradigm": 
some policy based-management systems (such as cfEngine) seem to use a declarative 
style to specify their policies (but with a low/technical-level granularity), how 
shall we position them in comparison to intent-based management?"


Best,
jerome
