Hi Bo,

Thanks for the positive response.

Replies to you below. Summary: all good!

Best,
Adrian

adding some text like this:
> The performance of VPN services is associated with the performance changes
of the underlay network that carries VPN services, such as the delay of the
underlay tunnels and the packet loss status of the device interfaces.
> Additionally, the integration of Layer 2/Layer 3 VPN performance and
network performance data enables the orchestrator to subscribe to VPN
service performance in a unified manner. 
> Therefore, this document defines a YANG module for both network and VPN
service performance monitoring (PM).

Nice

subscribe to metric-related data. How about the following text in section 3
Network and VPN Service Performance Monitoring Model Usage:

data of network devices. To avoid receiving a large amount of operational
data of VPN instances, VPN interfaces, or tunnels, 
> The controller can specifically subscribe to metric-specific data using
the methods defined in draft-ietf-netmod-node-tags.

Good

clearer.

in seconds.

Perfect
