Hello Juergen,

Sorry the wording was misleading. I want these capabilities both as state data AND as instance-data-files, because there is a need to know this information before you ever see the real network node. How about the following?

"YANG servers SHOULD document server capabilities that are available via 
Netconf/Restconf (as YANG defined data) also using instance-data-files."

regards Balazs

    Hello Martin,

    IMHO it would be good to recommend as a general practice that YANG servers
    SHOULD document their capabilities using instance data. Even though "the
    set of server capabilities to be documented will be defined by other
    standards and specifications ..."   it would still be good to make the
    general recommendation to do this.

    If the group thinks this general recommnedation is a bad idea, I think
    this chapter should be merged with 2.2 Use case 1.

Why would server capabilities not be more state data? Why would a
client have to fetch files (how?) to obtain knowledge about server
capabilities?
