Hi Tom,

Sorry for the slow reply.

I have just presented on this in RTGWG, pasting from the slides:

We have made the following changes:
- Editorial improvements to introductory text, security sections
- Simplified model - trying to align to minimal viable subset of vendor config, so removed:
   Global static ARP entries, ARP probe configuration, Grat ARP drop config flag
- Fix dynamic ARP global default setting
- Aligned global and interface config
- Improved YANG formatting
- Added discontinuity timestamp for counters

Based on the slides presented, and the two issues that we raised, and the comments that I received, I think that adding the discontinuity counter was a mistake, so it will be removed again, and the counters will instead by bound to the interface stats discontinuity counter.  Vendor implementations could deviate this behaviour if required.

The other issue was what default should be used for grat ARP config.  The conclusion here is that the default should be undefined, but the model will suggest that adding a deviation to specify the device default for grat ARP may be helpful to clients.

Thanks,
Rob
