Summary: I'm not an expert on YANG *at all*. And not an expert on the topic in 
question either. And I had far too little time to spend on this long document.
But as far as the textual content of the document goes, it seems reasonable. I 
have a difficulty in assessing how complete and implementable this model is 
however. Are there implementations?

[Qin]: Yes, there are implementations, something broken in RFC8049 needs to get 
right.

I did enjoy the classification of Internet connectivity as a special case of 
cloud service :-) You may be onto something.

[Qin]:Yes, internet connectivity is special example of public cloud, in my 
understanding,:-)

I did observe a couple of question marks or issues that probably deserve some 
thought or small revisions.

Major issues: -

Minor issues:

I'm not sure I fully understand the need for "SP MUST honour <requirement>"
language in the document. Are there parts of the described model that they SP 
is *not* required to honour? Other than the explicit strict true/false 
settings? And in any case, sizeable networks are likely to have issues that 
might require negotiation/human involvement.

[Qin]: Explicit settings are covered by sub-section of section 6.6, such as 
device constraint, Site Location constraint/parameter, access type.
Unlike RFC8049, RFC8049bis change "SP SHOULD honor" into "SP MUST honor". 

I don't understand how 6.9.1 can say there is no authentication support but 
then 6.9.2 (encryption) talks about authentication keys. I'd suggest some 
rethinking or at least clarification might be needed here.

[Qin]: Authentication provides you access to a resource like a computer or a 
network. Encryption provides confidentiality and controls whether an object can 
be read or not.
Both Authentication and Encryption are site level parameters and applicable to 
site connection. Pre-share key as encryption parameter can be used, e.g., for 
routing protocol authentication.
But pre-share key parameter is not authentication parameter, one example I have 
for authentication parameter is authentication algorithm which is not specified 
in the model,
We will see how to clarify this in the model. thanks.

In the security considerations, I would note that if these models are used not 
merely for creation of networks, but also their modification, the consequences 
of inadvertent or malicious modifications can severe and network wide. Perhaps 
that could be discussed.

[Qin]:Security consideration section has already considered both creation of 
networks and but also their modification, see the text in security 
consideration section as follows:
"
   The data nodes defined in the "ietf-l3vpn-svc" YANG module MUST be
   carefully created, read, updated, or deleted as appropriate.
"

Nits/editorial comments:

Section 6.12.2. s/fragmented/fragment it/

[Qin]: Will fix this, thanks.
