They may be in between, or in some other dimension? When you say generate results, those models generate results based on what?

Policy will describe an action on device or on a network service, as in general policy is defined as a set of match condition(s) followed by an action. I would even say that most policies are for network service models. > > And models of things which are not conventional network elements, such as > models of compute platforms, models of applications, even models of control > systems. We haven’t created device as generic network element, but with networking in mind. You can view it as generic. Device should always provide what it is capable of and it is a superset into which all other models must fit.
