Hi Asad,

Thank you for the comment.

I hear you. It is tempting to include such details into the SAP network model but we tried to avoid interfering with other device models or other network models (L3NM/L2NM). That's is why we have the following note in the draft:

   Advanced interface-specific data nodes are not included in the SAP
   model.  The interface identifiers listed in the SAP model can be used
   as filters to set or get such data using device models (e.g.,
   [RFC7224]).

For the particular case of L2NM/L3NM we do have the following:


      For example, 'sap-id' may be the VPN network access identifier in

      Section 7.6 of [RFC9182].  An example to illustrate the use of

      this attribute during service creation is provided in Appendix D.

...which means that the attachment circuit configuration will be directly included into the L2NM/L3NM while sap-id=vpn-network-access-id is used to correlate between the two.

I understand you want to do it in the other way around.

Cheers,
Med

Hi draft-ietf-opsawg-sap-09 authors

I have several comment regarding the draft.

Since I don't see a placeholder for configuration object that can be configured in the service attachment point. I believe it would be better to enrich the SAP model with the popular attachment circuit configuration of l2vpn and l3vpn, such as:

  *   Multicast protocol like IGMP(snooping), MLD(snooping)
  *   DHCP (snooping)
  *   IP/mac filter
  *   QOS policy
  *   OAM
  *   IP address
  *   Some extra fields can be reserved for arbitrarily usage

The use case that I can think of is when a Controller wanna config a service with L2NM or L3NM the following path can be augmented with the detail of SAP model


  *   /l3nm:l3vpn-ntw/l3nm:vpn-services/l3nm:vpn-service/l3nm:vpn-nodes/l3nm:vpn-node/l3nm:vpn-network-accesses
  *   /l2vpn-ntw:l2vpn-ntw/l2vpn-ntw:vpn-services/l2vpn-ntw:vpn-service/l2vpn-ntw:vpn-nodes/l2vpn-ntw:vpn-node/l2vpn-ntw:vpn-network-accesses

Similar can also for the service configuration retrieval.


Cheers/Asad
