The IESG has approved the following document: - 'YANG Model for Logical Network Elements' (draft-ietf-rtgwg-lne-model-09.txt) as Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Routing Area Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Alvaro Retana, Alia Atlas and Deborah Brungard. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-rtgwg-lne-model/ Technical Summary This document describes a YANG data model for Logical Network Elements (LNEs). A network device may divide its resources into logical network elements (LNEs), each of which provides a managed logical device. The module defined in this document is used to support multiple LNEs on a single physical or virtual system, create LNEs and allocate host resource to a given LNE. Working Group Summary This draft has been thoroughly discussed in the WG. The draft adoption and progress has received full support from the WG. All comments have been addressed. The draft is ready for publication. Document Quality The draft went through initial reviews by YANG-Doctors and the quality is good. The proposed model has at least one known implementation. Personnel Yingzhen Qu is the Document Shepherd. Alia Atlas is the Responsible Area Director. RFC Editor Note: Please update first sentence of Abstract from: "This document defines a logical network element YANG module." to: This document defines a logical network element NMDA-compliant YANG module." and the first line of the Introduction from: "This document defines a YANG [RFC6020] module to support the creation of logical network elements on a network device. " to: "This document defines an NMDA-compliant YANG [RFC6020] module to support the creation of logical network elements on a network device. " This is to make sure the point is captured. Authors & RFC Editor are welcome to improve the text or change how the point is made.
