I have to say this draft seems like a step backwards. The value of yang is you
can focus on information elements and desired transactions, and then matching
it to (standard) encoding, transport, security, etc that best matches your use
case. This approach, as you know, is standardized and in u
I should also point out that years ago the I2RS effort looked at
creating transient state in routers, and concluded that YANG could be
used for that task, even with the responsiveness requirements.

Hi Joel
As this is for ephemeral state, the consistency check with the configuration is
not required.
Thanks

Subject: Re: [rtgwg] RPC for programming epheme
I don't think that ignoring consistency follows. The combined (long
term plus ephemeral) state still has to be valid and operable.
Pretending that the controller will always send only correct ephemeral
changes seems an invitation to trouble. But the main point is that you
need to make the ar

Hi Joel
Many thanks for your comments; much appreciated.
The goal of the draft is to solicit this type of feedback. MANY THANKS!
The draft talks about applicability of the Yang over Netconf (I know you
mentioned RESTCONF).
Specifically, the Netconf route is slow and unpredictable for real-time
My understanding is that part of the reason people are often moving to
restconf is that the protocol exchanges are somewhat simpler. Note that
the significant delay I have heard about is often in the processing
system and consistency checks, and moving to restconf, or gRPC, or ...
