Re: [Last-Call] Last Call: <draft-ietf-opsawg-l2nm-15.txt> (A YANG Network Data Model for Layer 2 VPNs) to Proposed Standard

This I-D imports and uses a number of YANG grouping from RFC9181, ietf-vpn-common. This fact gets a mention in section 5 but you would not know this from the descriptive section, section 7, where imports and native YANG are seamlessly merged.

This I-D contains text on the meaning of the nodes, their usage and such like regardless of where they are defined. Looking at RFC9181 it is rather short, or very short, on such text (e.g. in vpn-profile-cfg, vpn-description). It would seem then that each document that imports RFC9181 will have to incorporate its own, potentially divergent, text on the meaning of the nodes and their usage while if ietf-vpn-common gets updated, the ripples may spread.

This seems unfortunate.

Abstract


    This document defines an L2VPN Network YANG Model (L2NM) which can be
    used to manage the provisioning of Layer 2 Virtual Private Network
    services within a network (e.g., service provider network).  The L2NM
    complements the Layer 2 Service Model (L2SM) by providing a network-
    centric view of the service that is internal to a service provider.
    The L2NM is particularly meant to be used by a network controller to
    derive the configuration information that will be sent to relevant
    network devices.

    Also, this document defines a YANG module to manage Ethernet segments
    and the initial versions of two IANA-maintained modules that defines
    a set of identities of BGP Layer 2 encapsulation types and pseudowire
    types.
