The easiest solution is to do nothing, and force the server implementers to deal with it. A server is obligated to check all client input. Any request with a zone index can be rejected instead of accepted. This solution is compatible with the OpenConfig typedef (unless zone index actually used). > Randy > Andy > > _______________________________________________ > netmod mailing list > [email protected] > https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/netmod >
