The current version of this small draft has addressed the discussion points to date.
I'd like to request that the netmod WG consider adopting this draft. Alternatively, if it's thought useful but more appropriate to carry this work on elsewhere (e.g. rtgwg), I'd appreciate such feedback. For the process folk, I am unaware of any applicable IPR covering this draft. -- Jeff > Begin forwarded message: > > From: [email protected] > Subject: I-D Action: draft-haas-netmod-unknown-bits-01.txt > Date: January 30, 2023 at 3:11:59 PM EST > To: <[email protected]> > Reply-To: [email protected] > > > A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts > directories. > > > Title : Representing Unknown YANG bits in Operational State > Author : Jeffrey Haas > Filename : draft-haas-netmod-unknown-bits-01.txt > Pages : 18 > Date : 2023-01-30 > > Abstract: > Protocols frequently have fields where the contents are a series of > bits that have specific meaning. When modeling operational state for > such protocols in YANG, the 'bits' YANG built-in type is a natural > method for modeling such fields. The YANG 'bits' built-in type is > best suited when the meaning of a bit assignment is clear. > > When bits that are currently RESERVED or otherwise unassigned by the > protocol are received, being able to model them is necessary in YANG > operational models. This cannot be done using the YANG 'bits' built- > in type without assigning them a name.
