I think that this could do with a few tweaks.

RFC 7884 is in the YANG module but not in the I-D references nor in the
body of the I-D.

The names of the TLV are not quite the same as in IANA and since new TLV
are not regarded as updates to RFC7770, then precision is called for in
order to find them with confidence via IANA

I cannot find router-address-tlv in IANA nor is there a YANG reference
clause and since there was some confusion over router-id in 2018, this
is one I want to check against its RFC, whatever that is.

The RPC can disrupt routing; elsewhere I have seen such actions limited
by a default
nacm:deny all
so users have to be positively configured to invoke the RPC.

I am unclear about rpc clear-neighbor.  Yes, it clears the adjacency but
what then?  Is it held down, allowed to come back up or what?

rpc or action?  I have yet to work out the pros and cons of each but was
rather expecting action as opposed to rpc for these.

leaf cost {type uint16
mostly have a range, but some do not; should they?

 typedef ospf-metric { type uint32 {  range "0 .. 16777215";
but
 leaf cost { type ospf-metric {  range "0..16777214";
looks odd; if intended, I suggest adding a note of explanation

some leaf metric are type ospf-metric others are type uint16; again
looks odd (but may be intended)

references to bfd-yang are not consistent
 RFC YYYY - YANG Data Model for Bidirectional
         Forwarding Detection (BFD).
 draft-ietf-bfd-yang-xx.txt:
     YANG Data Model for Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD)";
I think the former clearer

I notice that many of the YANG enumeration have numeric values, others
do not, which makes me curious; not wrong but since YANG does not put
them on the wire, I think that having no numeric value is commoner

With priority
e.g.  list unreserved-bandwidth {
     leaf priority {
which is high and which is low?

Likewise with boolean e.g.
           leaf best { type boolean; description
               "Indicates if the alternate is the preferred.";
does true mean the alternate is preferred?

This I-D is big - 125pp - and I will not finish reviewing it by July
17th but expect to do so some time later in the month - I will post
again when I have.
