Summary:
This draft is on the right track but has open issues, described in the
review.
Disclaimer:
This reviewer is "YANG challenged". Hence I have not verified the
syntax
or semantics of the YANG content. I trust there has been or will be a
separate review by a YANG expert.
ISSUES: 3
NITS: 1
1) ISSUE - General
I find the language in this document to be extremely difficult to
follow. (For instance, see the confusing language cited in the next
issue.) The main problem is that it is formally referencing and
defining
terms/entities named using sequences of words and acronyms including
spaces. (This includes YANG entities, IANA registry table names, and
the
names of entries in IANA registries.)
These terms are used in descriptions with nothing to distinguish them
from the surrounding text. Hence it becomes a struggle to parse the
text. I strongly recommend revising the document to syntactically set
off the formal names of the entities being defined and referenced from
the surrounding text. For instance: 'IGP MSD-Types'
[Yingzhen]: Please see the answer to issue #2.
2) ISSUE - Confusing language in Section 1
I can't parse: "... defines the identities for Maximum SID Depth (MSD)
Types as the IANA the IGP MSD-Types registry."
I still can't follow it even if I make the change I requested above:
"... defines the identities for Maximum SID Depth (MSD) Types as the
IANA the 'IGP MSD-Types' registry."
. I *think* you might mean:
"... defines the identities for 'Maximum SID Depth (MSD)' Types in the
IANA 'IGP MSD-Types' registry." But I am far from certain of this.
[Yingzhen]: The first paragraph of section 2.1 has been written and
added information about the IANA registry. Hope it's clear now. If more
clarification is needed, please kindly let us know.
3) ISSUE - Possible missing IANA action
Section 4 defines a YANG module named 'iana-msd-types'. I *think* there
is an intent to add this as a new entry in the IANA registry 'IGP
MSD-Types'. But I don't find anything that does this. (I would expect
something more in IANA Considerations.)
[Yingzhen]: No, the YANG Model types represent the existing IANA
registry without modifying it.
4) NIT
The document heading shows "Workgroup: Internet" but shouldn't it be
the
MPLS WG?
[Yingzhen]: fixed.
