Hi Jürgen,
netconf will be used between a netconf server (Manager) and a networking
device (netconf client = Analyzer). IDPEF standardize the exchanged
content so that no additional information is needed at the Manager to
interpret the exchanged data. With IDPEF it is not relevant which
vendors of Analyzers and Manager are combined. How could the Manager
interpret the configuration data of the Analyzer without any additional
information (e.g. MIB) in the YANG environment? How could I change
options (e.g. thresholds) of an IDS signature of any IDS vendor with
YANG without additional information on the netconf server?
kind regards
Björn-C.

This argument likely needs an explanation. There are people working
quite hard towards standardized YANG models.
