Hi Renato,

Thanks for you comments. However, at this point in the cycle, we’re not going 
to make any additions to the model since it is has already been through the 
complete review cycle. We will however fix things that are broken.


See inline responses below.

Hi all,

I have a few questions about the OSPF YANG module. I apologize if some of these 
questions were already asked before, but I couldn't find anything in the 
mailing list archives.

I also listed a few improvement suggestions, but I'm not sure if the draft can 
be updated at this point (it's status is listed as "RFC Ed Queue").


1. 
/ietf-routing:routing/control-plane-protocols/control-plane-protocol/ietf-ospf:ospf/areas/area/interfaces

OSPFv3 is known to run a per-link basis whereas OSPFv2 runs on a per-IP-subnet 
basis. So what does it mean to configure an interface for OSPFv2 operation? 
Should OSPFv2 run only on the interface primary address, or run separate OSPFv2 
instances for each one of the interface addresses? The latter option doesn't 
seem viable since interfaces live under OSPF instances in the YANG hierarchy, 
but I'd like to hear what others think about this.

We’re really only supporting the per-link configuration for both OSPFv2 and 
OSPFv3 since this is what the vendors support. Per-subnet configuration could 
be added via augmentation.

More than a couple vendors support range based configuration (for OSPFv2) 
probably stemming from a pretty old cisco i.e.,

https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/ios-xml/ios/iproute_ospf/command/iro-cr-book/m_ospf-i1.html#wp2261032279
https://docs.frrouting.org/en/latest/ospfd.html#clicmd-network-A.B.C.D-M-area-A.B.C.D
maybe: 
https://www.arista.com/en/um-eos/eos-open-shortest-path-first-version-2#xx1153530
...

Vendors that didn't pattern themselves from original IOS configuration probably 
lack this configuration, though. If that's the case, perhaps it would be best 
to associate any augmentation with a feature (unless it's a standalone module I 
guess)?

In the case of Cisco, it only applies to the primary address on the interface 
so it is essentially an indirect way to configure interfaces. GateD used to 
support subnet-based OSPFv2 configuration – I’m not sure if there are any 
vendors that started with GateD and retrained this behavior.

Thanks,
Acee

Thanks,
Chris.
