Stephane:

Hi!

Sorry it took me while to get to your reply.

Thanks for your comments. We are working on updating the document accordingly.
Please find some replies inline that may require more discussion.
I have stripped the comments that will be fixed in the next revision.

Just leaving some text with answers.

Thanks!

Alvaro.

474         Some parameters like "overload bit" and "route preference" are not
475         modeled to support a per level configuration.  If an implementation
476         supports per level configuration for such parameter, this
477         implementation SHOULD augment the current model by adding both
478         level-1 and level-2 containers and SHOULD reuse existing
479         configuration groupings.

[major] "...SHOULD augment the current model by adding both level-1 and level-2 
containers"  What other way would that be done?  I think that Normative 
language is not needed in this case.
[SLI] Using YANG there are multiple ways to do things. People may create new 
containers, use different namings… and we want to keep the modeling consistency 
even in the future augmentations.

Ok…why not use MUST then?  Are there cases where it would be ok to not be 
consistent?  IOW, the current wording doesn’t guarantee consistency…

This is a MUST in the -36 version.



...
978            sequence-number-skipped: This notification is sent when the 
system
979            receives a PDU with its own system ID and different contents.  
The
980            system has to reissue the LSP with a higher sequence number.

[nit] That's the last thing I would have guessed that this action would have 
been called...  Maybe it's just me...
[SLI] This is inherited from RFC4444

I guess operators are familiar with this SNMP Trap misnomer.




982            authentication-type-failure: This notification is sent when the
983            system receives a PDU with the wrong authentication type field.

985            authentication-failure: This notification is sent when the system
986            receives a PDU with the wrong authentication information.

[minor] Why do we need both of these?  Given that they both provide the same 
information (including the raw PDU), and that authentication-type-failure is a 
specific case of receiving "a PDU with the wrong authentication information"
[SLI] This is inherited from RFC4444

You used this reply in several places.

Inheriting things from rfc4444 doesn’t mean it is ok…or the best solution…

In either case, most are minor comments, so no big deal.  I just want to make 
sure that some of the points were considered.

In one case the wrong type of authentication is used, e.g., none vs 
auth-trailer and in the other the neighbors agree on authentication type but 
authentication fails.

1239         feature nsr {
1240           description
1241             "Non-Stop-Routing (NSR) support.";
1242         }

[minor] Reference?
[SLI] NSR is a local well known and deployed mechanism. We may enhance the 
description if required, however we cannot really provide a reference.

Yes, please do.  See the description in draft-ietf-ospf-yang.

This is included in the -36 version.

4002                       description
4003                         "If the S bit is set, the IS-IS Router CAPABILITY

4005                          domain. If the S bit is clear, the TLV MUST NOT
4006                          be leaked between levels. This bit MUST NOT
4007                           be altered during the TLV leaking.";
4008                     }

[major] This is a description of the behavior (copied from rfc7981!), not a 
description of the field.
[SLI] Yes, but this provides an accurate description on the conditions of the 
flag setting.

But this document is not Normative in the behavior above…. If anything, 
Normative language should not be used unless making it clear that it is a 
direct quote.

This is represented as an RFC 7981 quote in the -36 version.

...
4540         notification lsp-too-large {
4541           uses notification-instance-hdr;
4542           uses notification-interface-hdr;

4544           leaf pdu-size {
4545             type uint32;
4546             description "Size of the LSP PDU";
4547           }
4548           leaf lsp-id {
4549             type lsp-id;
4550             description "LSP ID";

4552           }
4553           description
4554             "This notification is sent when we attempt to propagate
4555              an LSP that is larger than the dataLinkBlockSize for the
4556              circuit.  The notification generation must be throttled
4557              with at least 5 seconds between successive
4558              notifications.";
4559         }

...
[major] "must be throttled"  Why is this text not Normative?  It seems to me 
that throttling is a good practice...in fact, it may be a good idea to specify 
it for all notifications.  There are 12 total instances of the same text.
[SLI] The text is mirrored from RFC4444.



I think this was the only “major” point what you replied with rfc4444…. Just 
leaving it here…. No further comments. ;-)

We didn’t change this notification throttling from RFC 4444. I’m not sure if it 
should be specified in the YANG model or be something that an implementation 
provides via configuration for all notifications.

Thanks,

Acee and Stephane
