Yes, I am well familiar with telecoms racks and with cabling racks. With cabling racks, then I think that there is too little logic to qualify for this model and I wonder if the same is true for subshelves which is something I am not familiar with. The model, like much of the IETF, is aimed at bridges, switches and routers and higher level protocol devices so if the subtended modules do not have their own control units then I would be inclined not to see them as chassis. I agree with Tom that the text as written does not cater for a chassis contained within a chassis and so that would be a technical change to the RFC which would call for a fresh RFC whereas the change Tom suggests is editorial IMHO and so could be made by an erratum to the RFC.
Some products I worked on (both data and voice processing) had considerable intelligence and configuration in the subshelves. But that was long ago, and we were using proprietary methods or CMIP to manage them.
