Re: [ntpwg] Solicit comments for draft-wu-ntp-ntp-cfg-00

Hi Danny,

Thank you for the frankness.

Yes, ntpq supports mode 6, but does it mean mode 6 is mandatory feature that must be supported on all ntp release?
Actually there are lots of ntp release that don't support mode 6, especially in carriers' networks.

NTP YANG as a protocol-neutral module, will give people one more option to deploy and manage ntp feature.

Regards
Eric

Frankly I have never understood the point of this draft. It seems to
have been introduced in a vacuum. ntpq on the reference implementation
already handles everything needed and uses ntp mode 6 packets. Is there
something I didn't understand?

IMHO, maybe one design team can be used to promote NTP's YANG data model.
