Hi Acee,

Thanks for your response. Please see my inline comments below.

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.

Understood. I only have a couple of additional comments for things that might 
be worth fixing before the RFC is released:

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

This leaf's type should be u32 and not u16.

Ack.


2. 
/ietf-routing:routing/control-plane-protocols/control-plane-protocol/ietf-ospf:ospf/database/as-scope-lsa-type/as-scope-lsas/as-scope-lsa/ospfv3/body/intra-area-prefix/prefixes/prefix/metric

This leaf's type should be u16 and not "ospf-metric" (u32).

No – ospf-metric type is correct with the range limiting the metric to 24 bits.


3. While the "lls" feature is present in the model, the "ospfv2-lsa-option" 
base identity is missing an identity for the L-Bit specified by RFC 5613. While 
that could be added via augmentation, I think it would make sense to have an 
"l-bit" identity as part of the base model.

The L-bit is never set in an LSA so it is not needed.

https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5613.html#section-2.1

Should we ever add operational state with the options received, it would be 
needed and could be added in that augmentation.



4. 
/ietf-routing:routing/control-plane-protocols/control-plane-protocol/ietf-ospf:ospf/areas/area/interfaces/interface/neighbors/neighbor/cost

Shouldn't the description be updated to include NBMA networks in addition to 
p2mp and hybrid networks?

No. You only have a single cost for an NBMA network.

5. 
/ietf-routing:routing/control-plane-protocols/control-plane-protocol/ietf-ospf:ospf/local-rib/route/next-hops/next-hop

This list is keyed by the `next-hop` leaf, which is an IP address. Given that 
directly connected routes don't have an IP address, shouldn't this be a keyless 
list instead?

Since the local RIB only contains OSPF routes, they always have a next-hop.

I was referring to the local RIB, where OSPF connected routes are calculated as 
a "byproduct" of the SPF algorithm. Example: https://pastebin.com/raw/zyDASfm2 
(the connected routes are the ones without nexthops).

In any case, section 16.1.1 of RFC 2328 says that nexthop addresses aren't 
required for point-to-point interfaces. So I'm still wondering whether a 
keyless list wouldn't be a better option.

A next-hop of zero is used in those cases.

Thanks,
Acee
