there isn't really any one-size-fits all default and the sample values are very
conservative. This is how we ended up with sample values in the text rather
than YANG defaults. Since the protocol specification doesn’t specify min and
max values, we were hesitant to specify them in the YANG model more than 20
years later. Also, many vendors have supported sub-second hellos. This wasn't a
good idea and it has been supplanted by BFD. I will add RFC 2328 Appendix C as
a reference for the sample values.
Good to hear that this was discussed! I understand the problem and a YANG
is not the right place to “change” the spec. Adding a reference would be good!
One more question regarding the sentence with normative language above: Is
that already specified in some other spec and it would make sense to not use
normative language here but provide the reference?
In this case, the YANG model enforces the constraint. However, it is not stated
explicitly in RFC 2328 so I'll make it a lower case "must".

Acee
