[tcpm] How to reuse the tcp model in the BMP model - asking for suggestions

[Camilo Cardona <[e-mail]>]

Hello draft-ietf-tcpm-yang-tcp authors,

 

We are analysing how to leverage the tcpm model for managing tcp connectivity in the BMP yang model (draft-cptb-grow-bmp-yang-02). 

 

In general, how do you suggest other models reuse ietf-tcpm? Most of tcpm model is defined directly in containers, not as groups, and we are finding hard to take the pieces that we need.

 

Let us shortly gointo details.

 

Regarding the 4-tuple connection, in BMP, we would like to have a “default” case in which the configured device connects to another using ip/port (i.e. active case),  but also to provide the option of expecting the  tcp connection over a local ip/port (i.e. passive case). We might need our own container for this.

 

However, we would like to integrate the “common”, and “statistics” sections of ietf-tcpm, but, they are containers, so we really do not know what to do besides recreating it.  

 

Do you have any suggestions?

 

Thanks,
