This is really helpful advice. I'm loosing track of my emails so if this is
the 2nd thank you, pleas ignore the spam.

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.

Susan,

 

Here is an relevant example (I have deleted description fields for brevity)
from ietf-interface YANG module of how one could maintain statistics in a
module. 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.

 

container interfaces-state {

    config false;

 

<snip>

 

    container statistics {

        description

          "A collection of interface-related statistics objects.";

 

        leaf discontinuity-time {

          type yang:date-and-time;

          mandatory true;

        }

 

        leaf in-octets {

          type yang:counter64;

        }

 

        leaf in-unicast-pkts {

          type yang:counter64;

       }

 

        leaf in-broadcast-pkts {

          type yang:counter64;

       }

 

       <snip>

 

        }

      }

}

 

HTH.

Would you post an example of how to put statistic counters into a container.
We have multiple drafts in I2RS that provide such counters.  I will forward
your advice to all authors so they can modify their yang modules to match
the appropriate form.

Assuming one has defined stat counters in one container, like
ietf-interfaces has done with its statistics, does anyone have suggestions
on how one can essentially clear (reset to 0) all the counters in that
container.
