        Looking at draft-nainar-mpls-lsp-ping-yang, the proposal is a “typedef” 
that constrains inet:ipv[46]-address so that it can only contain loopback 
address values.

        I don’t think so, but I’m not a routing person.

    I wouldn't think that an internal loopback address would be widely used. In 
fact, I checked our Cisco native models for IOS-XE and there is no such 
definition. 

    [Qin]: I am not sure we are talking about loopback type or loopback address
    See section 2.4 in draft-ietf-netmod-intf-ext-yang-10, 3 type loopbacks are 
defined:
    1.Internal loopback
    2.Line loopback
    3.Loopback Connector
    3 types loopback can be classified into local loopback and remote loopback.
    I am not sure they are common, but we have some support for this. 

This is the loopback address type - not the loopback interface type. Look at 
draft-nainar-mpls-lsp-ping-yang (the draft being discussed in the Email 
thread). 

[Qin]:I understand, but I feel related. Maybe I am wrong.
Thanks,
Acee

    Thanks,
    Acee
