Acee, Ladislav and all,
I have serious doubts regarding the data model for static routes in RFC 8022.

As I see it, the data model defined in this document does not support multiple 
routes with common destination, different next hops and different route 
preferences.

This is because only route destination is considered as the key in the RIB in 
Appendix A of RFC 8022., while route preference is a per-route read-only leaf 
in the data model.

In particular (and this was my original problem) , it is possible to configure 
a static route with multiple next hops (using the next-hop-list construct) 
using the data model defined in RFC 8022, but all the next hops in this 
construct would have the same preference. AFAIK, many (if not all) deployed 
implementations support ability to configure static routes with the same 
destination, different next hops and different preferences, so that one of 
these next hops would act as a protection of the other.

For the reference, this problem does not exist in the standard MIB for the RIB 
(RFC 4292), because it includes both the route destination and its next hop in 
the list  of indices in the corresponding MIB.

What, if anything, did I miss?

Regards, and lots of thanks in advance,
Sasha
