Hi Benjamin/Sue,
NB> The reason string is indeed not relevant for the success case. The success
case is "Installed is TRUE AND Active is TRUE". For everything else a reason
will help. It will help the client to know why something was installed but is
not active.
As I recall (and my memory may be spotty), the reason was available for
both "yes" and "no" in case "yes" it is active, and "no" it is not installed
(example - 20 ECMP routes and only 10 get installed). Nitin may have more
details on this RFC.
Cheerily, Susan Hares

COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I share Warren's question (and, IIRC, asked a similar one about the
associated data-model document).
Just one other minor question: in Section 4
Route programming in the RIB MUST result in a return code that
contains the following attributes:
o Installed - Yes/No (Indicates whether the route got installed in
the FIB)
o Active - Yes/No (Indicates whether a route is fully resolved and
is a candidate for selection)
o Reason - e.g., Not authorized
Is the Reason only relevant when one of the other two is "No"?
