Hi Ted, Thanks for the comments on the NAPTR-related part. It is very helpful.
To be more concrete, this "rdns-naptr-records" YANG node is to configure DNS for the U-NAPTR lookup suggested by Sec 3.4 of RFC 8686 ( https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8686#name-step-3-perform-dns-u-naptr-). For example, if - "198.51.100.0/24" is configured in "rdns-naptr-records/static-prefix" - the "alto-server/base-uri" is set to "https://alto1.example.net"; - there is an ird resource configured in "alto-server/resource" with resource-id named "ird" then the following U-NAPTR record will be added: 100.51.198.IN-ADDR.ARPA. IN NAPTR 100 10 "u" "ALTO:https" "!.*! https://alto1.example.net/ird!"; "" Where the order value of 100 and the preference of 10 are determined by default. They can be determined by some other advanced configuration and algorithm, but it is out of the scope of this document.
