Hi Acee, What I meant is that BFD always augments the control palne protocols in ietf-routing model. And the BFD augmentation can be used as-is or mounted in LNE or in NI. Regards, Reshad.

I guess it doesn't have to be in the list since it will never install routes in the routing table.

How the ietf-bfd model is used may vary: 1) It may be used "directly" in a device (i.e no schema mount) 2) It may be schema mounted for use in an LNE 3) It may be schema mounted for use in a VRF I thought this was the case for all routing protocols.

I guess you are saying that it is conceivable for a network device to support ietf-bfd but not support routing (ietf-routing)?

We will clarify the text, at a certain time we incorrectly thought that schema mount had to be used in all cases. Regards, Reshad.

The question on how to do is being discussion on the YANG doctors list. > This is what I thought but the text is kind of misleading: BFD can operate in the following contexts: [...] The approach taken is to do a schema-mount (see Schema Mount [I-D.ietf-netmod-schema-mount]) of the BFD model in the appropriate locations. /js -- Juergen Schoenwaelder Jacobs University Bremen gGmbH Phone: +49 421 200 3587 Campus Ring 1 | 28759 Bremen | Germany Fax: +49 421 200 3103 <https://www.jacobs-university.de/>
