Hi Jake,

thanks a lot for the work on yang in PyTAPS! 

Side note:

There's a disconnect about the "multiple endpoint identifiers" clause
in the "Specifying Endpoints" section of taps-interface which I think the
current implementation doesn't follow.  I didn't try to fix it, but it looks
hard to support without tightening up what the semantics here are, exactly:

"Multiple endpoint identifiers can be specified for each Local Endpoint and Remote Endpoint. For example, a Local Endpoint could be configured with two interface names, or a Remote Endpoint could be specified via both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. These multiple identifiers refer to the same transport endpoint."

Should this be opened as an issue against taps-interface?

We have indeed not implemented support for multiple identifiers as there is no racing yet, but as I understand it you would simply repeatedly call endpoint.with_address() with the different identifiers.

Best regards 
Max
