Hi Med,
Thanks for persevering, I think that we are pretty much there.
I've have proposed some minor tweaks the description and YANG leaf descriptions
that I think may improve clarity, but I'll leave it to you to decide whether it
would be helpful to incorporate these. Please either merge/some all of these
and post an updated version or indicate whether you would like to stick with
-11, and then I can kick off the IETF LC.
OLD:
'service-status': Indicates the administrative and operational
status of the service for a given SAP. This information is
particularly useful when many services are enabled for the same
SAP, but only a subset of these services are activated. As such,
the administrative 'service-status' MUST NOT be influenced by the
value of the 'sap-status'.
The service 'oper-status' reflects the service operational status
as observed for a specific SAP, not the status that is determined
at the network level for a service that involves many SAPs. That
network level status can be retrieved using specific network
models, e.g., Section 7.3 of [RFC9182] or Section 7.3 of
[RFC9291].
In order to assess the service delivery status for a given SAP, it
is recommended to check both the administrative and operational
service status ('service-status') in addition to the 'sap-status'.
In doing so, a network controller (or an operator) can detect
anomalies. For example, if a service is administratively enabled
for a SAP and the 'sap-status' of that SAP is reported as being
down, the service 'oper-status' is also expected to be down.
Retrieving a distinct service operational status under these
conditions can be used as a trigger to detect an anomaly.
Likewise, administrative status and operational status can be used
as a trigger to detect service-specific SAP activation anomalies.
For example, a service that is administratively declared as
inactive for a SAP but reported as operationally active for that
SAP is an indication that some service provision actions are
needed to align the observed service status with the expected
service status.

'service-status': Indicates the administrative and operational
status of the service for a given SAP. This information is
particularly useful when many services are provisioned for the same
SAP, but only a subset of these services are activated. As such,
the administrative 'service-status' MUST NOT be influenced by the
value of the operational 'sap-status'.
The service 'oper-status' reflects the operational status of the
service only as observed at a specific SAP, not the overall
network level status of the service connecting many SAPs. The
network level service status can be retrieved using specific
network models, e.g., Section 7.3 of [RFC9182] or Section 7.3 of
[RFC9291].

compared to detect service-specific SAP activation anomalies.
For example, a service that is administratively declared as
inactive for a SAP but reported as operationally active for that
SAP is an indication that some service provision actions are
needed to align the observed service status with the expected
service status.
Some proposed tweaks to YANG container/leaf descriptions:
container sap-status {
config false;
description
"Indicates the operational status of the SAP, independent
of any service provisioned over it.";
container admin-status {
description
"Administrative service status.";
leaf status {
type identityref {
base vpn-common:administrative-status;
}
description
"Administrative status of the service provisioned at the SAP.";
}
leaf last-change {
...
}
container oper-status {
config false;
description
"Operational status of the service provisioned at the SAP.";
uses vpn-common:oper-status-timestamp;
}
}
}
}

Rob
