This is how YANG does strong typing for identities.
It allows the compiler to check the identity being used for a given
identityref leaf. Otherwise the identities meant for completely different
purposes could not be screened by the compiler
leaf transport {
type identityref {
base transport-protocol;
}
}
leaf toast-type {
type identityref {
base bread-type;
}
}
