Andy and Joel: These are good points. What happens if the data model has some ephemeral sections and the I2RS agent is not supported by the routing system. The data model would specify the ephemeral section, but there would be no support by i2rs. Is the support of the ephemeral not a variable condition to be indicated in Yang module library?

Halpern <[email protected]> wrote: Reading the latest revision, in section 3.1.1, the text in bullet 5 says that the data model indicates which portions are ephemeral. That makes sense to me. Then bullet 6 says that the management protocol needs to signal (in its yang library) which parts are ephemeral. Why the second requirement? If the data model is supported, and the data model states that certain items are ephemeral, what would it mean if the signaling did not also say that. Conversely, what would it mean if the signaling said something was ephemeral that the model does not define as ephemeral? It may be that I am misreading bullet 6. Please explain. I think you are correct that the YANG library does not need any changesto identify ephemeral data. Only the variable components ofYANG conformance are contained in the library.
