Re: [Rtg-yang-coord] Clearing all stats in a container

[Mahesh Jethanandani <[e-mail]>]

Susan,

BTW, another great example on use of containers can be found in the BGP YANG module here <https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-zhdankin-idr-bgp-cfg-00>.

With some clever use of containers, like bgp-neighbors and within it, bgp-neighbor-state or bhp-neighbor-statistics, you can drill down into the specific config, state or counters you would be interested in configuring/finding/purging.

Cheers.

One reason to keep them in a container of their own is to be able to perform bulk operations on them. Of course, as Juergen pointed out, clearing stats may not be one of them. But if you wanted to say <get all the stats on a particular module, you would do a <get> on the container i.e. statistics in this example, and you would have all the stats.
