      <name>Introduction</name>
      <t>The standardization of network configuration interfaces for use with
   network configuration management protocols, such as the Network
   Configuration Protocol (NETCONF) <xref target="RFC6241"/> and the RESTCONF Protocol <xref target="RFC8040"/>,
   requires a modular set of data models that can be reused and extended
   over time.</t>
      <t>This document defines a set of guidelines for documents
   containing YANG 1.1 <xref target="RFC7950"/> and YANG 1.0 <xref target="RFC6020"/> data models, including IANA-maintained YANG modules.
   YANG is used to define the data structures, protocol operations, and
   notification content used within a NETCONF and/or RESTCONF server.
   YANG is also used to define abstract data structures <xref target="RFC8791"/>.
   A NETCONF or RESTCONF server that supports a particular YANG module
   will support client NETCONF and/or RESTCONF operation requests, as
   indicated by the specific content defined in the YANG module.</t>
      <t>Many YANG constructs are defined as optional to use, such as the
   "description" statement.  However, in order to make YANG modules more
   readable and interoperable, it is desirable to define a set of descriptive usage guidelines that
   entails a higher level of compliance than the minimum level defined
   in the YANG specification <xref target="RFC7950"/>.</t>
      <t>In addition, YANG allows constructs such as infinite length
   identifiers and string values, or top-level mandatory nodes, that a
   compliant server is not required to support.  Only constructs that
      all servers are required to support can be used in IETF YANG modules.</t>

<!-- [rfced] Note: [RFC6421] uses "Operations layer" and "Content
layer" rather than "operations layer" and "content layer".
Please let us know if/how to update for consistency.

Current:
   This document defines usage guidelines related to the NETCONF
   operations layer and NETCONF content layer, as defined in [RFC6241],
   and the RESTCONF methods and RESTCONF resources, as defined in
   [RFC8040].

   operations layer and NETCONF content layer, as defined in <xref target="RFC6241"/>,

      <t>These guidelines are intended to be used by authors and reviewers to
   improve the readability and interoperability of published YANG data
   models. These guidelines can be used independent of the IETF Stream of publication
   stream or even by other organizations.</t>

<!--[rfced] There is a slight difference between the text in the
change log and the text in the document with regard to how RFC 7952
is listed (i.e., is it an example of an RFC that might
disqualify a document from needing the Security Considerations
template, or are RFC 8791 and 7952 the only RFCs that would do
that?).

Change log (Original):
   *  Added statements that the security template is not required for
      modules that follow [RFC8791] or [RFC7952].

Section 3.7 (Original):

   Unless the modules comply with [RFC8791] or define YANG extensions
   (e.g., [RFC7952]),...

and

   Documents that exclusively define modules that follow the extension
   in [RFC8791] are not required to include the security template in
   Section 3.7.1.  Likewise, following the template is not required for
   modules that define YANG extensions such as [RFC7952].

<!--[rfced] Section 2: We have the following questions related to the
terminology in this section:

a) Please review our updates to the following text; based on the text
that follows defining "published" and "unpublished", please confirm
that this update is accurate (i.e., can an IETF module not exist in an
I-D, "IETF module" would only be the terminology used for a published
RFC).

Original:
   IETF module:  A YANG module that is published by the IETF and that is
      not maintained by IANA.

Current:
   IETF module:  A YANG module that is published as an RFC from the IETF
      Stream and that is not maintained by IANA.

b) Is it possible to have a YANG module that is not IANA-maintained
and not an IETF module?  If so, should their be some kind of
terminology to address that?

c) In the following definition of "unpublished", might "unstable
publication" be a bit contradictory?  Perhaps

Original:
   unpublished:  An unstable release of a module or submodule.  For
      example the "Internet-Draft" described in Section 2.2 of [RFC2026]
      is considered an unstable publication that is a work in progress,
      subject to change at any time.

Perhaps:
   unpublished:  An unstable release of a module or submodule.  For
      example, the "Internet-Draft" described in Section 2.2 of [RFC2026]
      is considered an unstable work in progress, subject to change at any time.

d) In the "published" and "unpublished" definitions, it seems a bit
odd to expand RFC and put Request for Comments and Internet-Draft in
quotes.

Original:
   published:  A stable release of a module or submodule.  For example,
      the "Request for Comments" described in Section 2.1 of [RFC2026]
      is considered a stable publication.

   unpublished:  An unstable release of a module or submodule.  For
      example the "Internet-Draft" described in Section 2.2 of [RFC2026]
      is considered an unstable publication that is a work in progress,
      subject to change at any time.

Perhaps:
   published:  A stable release of a module or submodule.  For example,
      the Request for Comments Series described in Section 2.1 of [RFC2026]
      is considered a stable publication.

   unpublished:  An unstable release of a module or submodule.  For
      example, the Internet-Draft described in Section 2.2 of [RFC2026]
      is considered an unstable work in progress, subject to change at any time.

<!--[rfced] Regarding Sections 3.7 and 3.7.1 (Security Considerations Section
Template):

a) We note the the following text was removed from Section 3.7 between
RFC 8407 and this document:

Section 3.7.1 contains the security considerations template dated
2013-05-08 and last updated on 2018-07-02.

As the template listed at
https://wiki.ietf.org/group/ops/yang-security-guidelines is likely to
continue to evolve ("latest approved template"), should there be some
mention here that Section 3.7.1 is a snapshot of the template that is
available in the wiki at the time of writing in order to avoid author
confusion?

b) With point (a) in mind, would it make sense to begin Section 3.7.1
(prior to <CODE BEGINS> with a note mentioning that what follows is a
snapshot and authors should go to
<https://wiki.ietf.org/group/ops/yang-security-guidelines> for the
most up-to-date version (i.e., might someone just look up Section
3.7.1, without seeing 3.7, and not realize there are differences)?

c) There are some minor differences between Section 3.7.1 and
the wiki page.  Should this document be updated to match the wiki?
In addition to the differences between square and angle brackets,
we see the following:

i) Section numbering difference:

This document:
This section is modeled after the template described in Section 3.7

The wiki:
This section is modeled after the template described in Section 3.7.1

ii) Numbering and textual differences:

This document:
These YANG-based management protocols (1) have to use a secure
transport layer (e.g., SSH [RFC4252], TLS [RFC8446], and QUIC
[RFC9000]) and (2) have to use mutual authentication.

The wiki:
These protocols have to use a secure transport layer (e.g., SSH
[RFC4252], TLS [RFC8446], and QUIC [RFC9000]) and have to use mutual
authentication.

iii) Use of "reasonably":

This document:
All writable data nodes are likely to be sensitive or
vulnerable in some network environments.

The wiki:
All writable data nodes are likely to be reasonably sensitive or
vulnerable in some network environments.

d) Might it make the template in Section 3.7.1 more easily usable to
authors if it were numbered?  That is:

1.  Writable nodes section:
2.  Readable nodes section:
3.  RPC/action operations section:
4.  Reusable groupings from other modules section:
5.  No data nodes section:

(If added, this numbering would appear in this document and the wiki page,
not in the RFCs that make use of the template, as they typically
do not include these section names.)

e) Is it clear to authors how to approach the security considerations
section for documents that contain more than one YANG module that
might have different security considerations template applications?

Should they include subsections of the Security Considerations section
for each module?

f) The following abbreviations (that are not denoted as well-known at
https://www.rfc-editor.org/rpc/wiki/doku.php?id=abbrev_list) are used
in the template in Section 3.7.1 and/or at
https://wiki.ietf.org/group/ops/yang-security-guidelines without
expansion.

As this may be the first use of these abbreviations in a
document in which this text is inserted, should they be expanded?

NETCONF (a bit odd since RESTCONF has no expansion)
SSH
RPC

g) A formatting question/suggestion inspired by the aesthetics of
https://wiki.ietf.org/group/ops/yang-security-guidelines but also
applicable to the template in Section 3.7.1:

Should the quoted text like "There are no particularly sensitive
writeable data nodes." actually appear under the blue bubble to match
the way the text above was formatted (e.g., "There are a number of
data nodes defined...")?  So that the comments/blue bubbles are saying
something like "If X is true, insert:" and the actual text to insert
is not in the comment?

h) We see the template gives instructions on what to include:

-if a YANG module contains something (e.g., writeable nodes),

-if the YANG module contains something particularly sensitive, and

-if NO data nodes at all are included.

However, is there ever a case where just one (or two) of the sections
in this template might not apply (e.g., readable nodes exist but no
writable ones do)?  If so, will it be clear to authors how to handle
that case?

For example, should an instruction to include something like "There
are no writable data nodes in this YANG module." be included?

i) Following on with point (h) above, Section 3.7 states that YANG
modules that comply with [RFC8791] or define YANG extensions (e.g.,
[RFC7952]) do not need to model their Security Considerations sections
after the template.

However, does it make sense to update the template (and
https://wiki.ietf.org/group/ops/yang-security-guidelines) with text
instructing authors to overtly mention that the YANG module complies
with [RFC8791] or defines YANG extensions and thus the security
considerations at
https://wiki.ietf.org/group/ops/yang-security-guidelines do not apply?

j) Might it be helpful to move the note (about references) at the end
of Section 3.7.1 to match its placement at
https://wiki.ietf.org/group/ops/yang-security-guidelines?

k) Is "that" missing in the first sentence of the second comment in
the "Readable nodes section:"?  That is, if you remove the
parenthetical, you would get:

"You must evaluate whether the data model contains any readable data
nodes [snip] are particularly sensitive..."

l) In the "Readable nodes section:", it could be read as the right course of
action would be to include:

"Some of the readable data nodes in this YANG module may be considered
sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. It is thus
important to control read access (e.g., via get, get-config, or
notification) to these data nodes. Specifically, the following
subtrees and data nodes have particular sensitivities/vulnerabilities:

There are no particularly sensitive readable data nodes."

However, perhaps the intended meaning is to either have the first
paragraph or have the last sentence?  Or, is it the case that some YANG
modules have sensitive data nodes that are not "particularly"
sensitive?  Please review.

m) For the following sentence, a reader may expect "remind" to be a
transitive verb (with object).  May we rewrite as follows?

Original:
   If the data model reuses groupings from other modules and
   the document that specifies these groupings also
   includes those as data nodes, then add this text to remind
   the specific sensitivity or vulnerability of reused nodes.

Perhaps:
   If the data model reuses groupings from other modules and
   the document that specifies these groupings also
   includes those as data nodes, then add this text as a reminder of
   the specific sensitivity or vulnerability of the reused nodes.

<CODE BEGINS>

X.  Security Considerations

This section is modeled after the template described in Section 3.7
of [RFCAAAA]. [RFC9907].

The "<module-name>" YANG module defines a data model that is
designed to be accessed via YANG-based management protocols, such as
NETCONF [RFC6241] and RESTCONF [RFC8040].  These YANG-based
management protocols (1) have to use a secure transport layer
(e.g., SSH [RFC4252], TLS [RFC8446], and QUIC [RFC9000]) and (2) have
to use mutual authentication.

The Network Configuration Access Control Model (NACM) [RFC8341]
provides the means to restrict access for particular NETCONF or
RESTCONF users to a preconfigured subset of all available NETCONF or
RESTCONF protocol operations and content.

-- Writable nodes section:
--
-- If the data model contains any writable data nodes (those are all
-- the "config true" nodes), then include the following text:

There are a number of data nodes defined in this YANG module that are
writable/creatable/deletable (i.e., "config true", which is the
default).  All writable data nodes are likely to be sensitive or
vulnerable in some network environments.  Write
operations (e.g., edit-config) and delete operations to these data
nodes without proper protection or authentication can have a negative
effect on network operations.  The following subtrees and data nodes
have particular sensitivities/vulnerabilities:

-- If the data model contains any particularly sensitive data nodes,
-- e.g., ones that are protected by a "nacm:default-deny-write"
-- or a "nacm:default-deny-all" extensions statement, then those
-- subtrees and data nodes must be listed, with an explanation of the
-- associated security risks with a focus on how they can be
-- disruptive if abused.  Otherwise, state:
--
-- "There are no particularly sensitive writable data nodes."

-- Readable nodes section:
--
-- If the data model contains any readable data nodes (i.e., those
-- that are "config false" nodes, but also all other nodes, because
-- they can also be read via operations like get or get-config), then
-- include the following text:

Some of the readable data nodes in this YANG module may be considered
sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments.  It is thus
important to control read access (e.g., via get, get-config, or
notification) to these data nodes.  Specifically, the following
subtrees and data nodes have particular sensitivities/
vulnerabilities:

-- You must evaluate whether the data model contains any readable
-- data nodes (those are all the "config false" nodes, but also all
-- other nodes, because they can also be read via operations like get
-- or get-config) are particularly sensitive or vulnerable (e.g.,
-- if they might reveal customer information or violate personal
-- privacy laws).  Typically, particularly sensitive readable
-- data nodes are ones that are protected by a
-- "nacm:default-deny-read" or a "nacm:default-deny-all" extensions
-- statement.
--
-- Otherwise, state:
-- "There are no particularly sensitive readable data nodes."

-- RPC/action operations section:
--
-- If the data model contains any RPC or action operations, then
-- include the following text:

Some of the RPC or action operations in this YANG module may be
considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments.
It is thus important to control access to these operations.
Specifically, the following operations have particular
sensitivities/ vulnerabilities:

-- If the data model contains any particularly sensitive RPC
-- or action operations, then those operations must be listed
-- here, along with an explanation of the associated specific
-- sensitivity or vulnerability concerns.
--
-- Otherwise, state:
-- "There are no particularly sensitive RPC or action operations."

-- Reusable groupings from other modules section:
--
-- If the data model reuses groupings from other modules and
-- the document that specifies these groupings also
-- includes those as data nodes, then add this text to remind
-- the specific sensitivity or vulnerability of reused nodes.

This YANG module uses groupings from other YANG modules that
define nodes that may be considered sensitive or vulnerable
in network environments.  Refer to the Security Considerations
of <RFC-insert-numbers> for information as to which nodes may
be considered sensitive or vulnerable in network environments.

-- No data nodes section:
--
-- If the data model does not define any data nodes (i.e., none
-- of the above sections or readable/writable data nodes or RPCs
-- have been included), then add the following text:

The YANG module defines a set of identities, types, and
groupings.  These nodes are intended to be reused by other YANG
modules.  The module by itself does not expose any data nodes that
are writable, data nodes that contain read-only state, or RPCs.
As such, there are no additional security issues related to
the YANG module that need to be considered.

Modules that use the groupings that are defined in this document
should identify the corresponding security considerations.  For
example, reusing some of these groupings will expose privacy-related
information (e.g., 'node-example').

of <xref target="RFC6020"/>.</t>
        <t>A distinctive word or abbreviation (e.g., protocol name or working
group abbreviation) <bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14> be used in the module name.  If new

then the same word or abbreviation should be reused, instead of
creating a new one.</t>
        <t>All published module names <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> be unique.  For a YANG module
published in an RFC, this uniqueness is guaranteed by IANA (<xref section="14" sectionFormat="of" target="RFC6020"/>).  For
unpublished modules, the authors need to check that no other work in
progress is using the same module name.</t>
        <t>Example modules are non-normative and <bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14> be named with the prefix
"example-".</t>
        <t>It is suggested that a stable module name prefix be selected that represents the
entire organization.  All normative YANG modules published by the
IETF <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> begin with the prefix "ietf-". All IANA-maintained YANG modules <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> begin with the prefix "iana-".  Another standards
organization, such as the IEEE, might use the prefix "ieee-" for all
YANG modules.</t>
        <t>Once a module name is published, it <bcp14>MUST NOT</bcp14> be reused, even if the
RFC containing the module is reclassified to "Historic" status.  A
module name cannot be changed in YANG, and this would be treated as a
new module, not a name change.</t>

        <t>All YANG definitions are scoped by the module containing the
definition being referenced. This allows the same name to be used
in multiple modules, even if the names are not unique. In the example
below, the identifier "foo" is used in all three modules:</t>
<!--[rfced] Regarding the use of code markers:

a) Please consider whether you want the <CODE BEGINS>
and <CODE ENDS> markers to be added to any snippets in this document
(i.e., if you want to add markers="true" to the sourcecode elements).

We note Section 3.2.1 contains the following, but how it should
be applied within this document is not clear:
   Example modules are not code components.  The <CODE BEGINS>
   convention MUST NOT be used for example modules.  However, example
   modules MUST be validated (Section 3.10).

b) In contrast, regarding your note (about Section 3.7.1):
   *  Added code markers for the security template.

Why are the code markers being used for the security considerations
template? It seems odd because it is prose, not code.

c) Similarly, why are code markers used for the templates
in Sections 4.30.3.1 and 4.30.3.2?

        <t>YANG defines the following rules for prefix usage:</t>
        <ul spacing="normal">
          <li>
            <t>Prefixes are never used for built-in data types and YANG keywords.</t>
          </li>
          <li>
            <t>A prefix <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> be used for any external statement (i.e., a statement defined with the YANG "extension" statement).</t>

          <li>
            <t>The proper module prefix <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> be used for all identifiers included from a submodule.</t>
          </li>
        </ul>
        <t>The following guidelines apply to prefix usage of the current (local)
module:</t>
        <ul spacing="normal">
          <li>
            <t>The local module prefix <bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14> be used instead of no prefix in all path expressions.</t>
          </li>
          <li>
            <t>The local module prefix <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> be used instead of no prefix in all "default" statements for an "identityref" or "instance-identifier" data type.</t>

        <t>Consistent with <xref section="7.1.4" sectionFormat="of" target="RFC7950"/>, the prefix defined by a module
<bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14> be used when the module is imported, unless there is a conflict.</t>
        <t>Prefix values <bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14> be short but meaningful to the intended user. Prefix values <bcp14>SHOULD NOT</bcp14> conflict with known modules that have been previously published.</t>
        <t>For convenience, prefix values of example modules <bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14> be prefixed with "ex"
or similar patterns. In doing so, readers of example modules or tree diagrams
that mix both example and standard modules can easily identify example parts.</t>

      <section anchor="identifiers"> anchor="ids">
        <name>Identifiers</name>
        <t>All YANG identifiers in published modules <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> be between 1 and 64 characters in length.  These include any construct
specified as an "identifier-arg-str" token in the ABNF in <xref section="14" sectionFormat="of" target="RFC7950"/>.</t>
        <section anchor="sec-id-naming">
          <name>Identifier Naming Conventions</name>
          <t>Identifiers <bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14> follow a consistent naming pattern throughout the
module.  Only lowercase letters, numbers, and dashes <bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14> be used
in identifier names.  Uppercase characters, the period character, and
the underscore character <bcp14>MAY</bcp14> be used if the identifier represents a
well-known value that uses these characters.  YANG does not permit
any other characters in YANG identifiers.</t>
          <t>Identifiers <bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14> include complete words and/or well-known acronyms
or abbreviations.  Child nodes within a container or list <bcp14>SHOULD NOT</bcp14>
replicate the parent identifier.  YANG identifiers are hierarchical
and are only meant to be unique within the set of sibling nodes
defined in the same module namespace.</t>
          <t>List identifiers <bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14> be singular with the surrounding container name plural.
Similarly, "leaf-list" identifiers <bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14> be singular.</t>
          <t>It is permissible to use common identifiers such as "name" or "id" in
data definition statements, especially if these data nodes share a
common data type.</t>
          <t>Identifiers <bcp14>SHOULD NOT</bcp14> carry any special semantics that identify data
modeling properties. Only YANG statements and YANG extension
statements are designed to convey machine-readable data modeling
properties.  For example, naming an object "config" or "state" does
not change whether it is configuration data or state data.  Only
defined YANG statements or YANG extension statements can be used to
assign semantics in a machine-readable format in YANG.</t>

        <name>Conditional Statements</name>
        <t>A module may be conceptually partitioned in several ways, ways using the
"if-feature" and/or "when" statements.</t>
        <t>Data model designers need to carefully consider all modularity
aspects, including the use of YANG conditional statements.</t>
        <t>If a data definition is optional, depending on server support for a
NETCONF or RESTCONF protocol capability, then a YANG "feature"
statement <bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14> be defined.  The defined "feature" statement <bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14>
then be used in the conditional "if-feature" statement referencing
the optional data definition.</t>
        <t>If any notification data, or any data definition, for a non-
configuration data node is not mandatory, then the server may or may
not be required to return an instance of this data node.  If any
conditional requirements exist for returning the data node in a
notification payload or retrieval request, they <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> be documented
somewhere.  For example, a "when" or "if-feature" statement could
apply to the data node, node or the conditional requirements could be
explained in a "description" statement within the data node or one of
its ancestors (if any).</t>
        <t>If any "if-feature" statements apply to a list node, then the same
"if-feature" statements <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> apply to any key leaf nodes for the
list.  There <bcp14>MUST NOT</bcp14> be any "if-feature" statements applied to any
key leafs that do not also apply to the parent list node.</t>
        <t>There <bcp14>SHOULD NOT</bcp14> be any "when" statements applied to a key leaf node.
It is possible that a "when" statement for an ancestor node of a key
leaf will have the exact node-set result as the key leaf.  In such a
case, the "when" statement for the key leaf is redundant and <bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14>
be avoided.</t>
        <t>Some modules use a "case + when" construct but provide duplicated information (e.g., the "when" statements are constraining a single case in the choice as shown in the example below).
Such constructs with duplicated information <bcp14>SHOULD NOT</bcp14> be used.</t>

        <t><xref section="8.1" sectionFormat="of" target="RFC7950"/> includes provisions for defining constraints
on state data and specifies that a constraint must be true in a valid state data tree.
However, <xref section="5.3" sectionFormat="of" target="RFC8342"/> softens that behavior by allowing semantic
constraints to be violated under some circumstances to help to detect anomalies.
Relaxing validation constraints on state data is meant to reveal deviations of
the observed behavior vs. versus intended behavior of a managed entity and hopefully
trigger corrective actions by a management system. From that perspective,
it is <bcp14>RECOMMENDED</bcp14> to avoid defining constraints on state data that would hinder
the detection by a management system of abnormal behaviors of a managed entity.</t>

          <t>It is especially important to consider the XPath evaluation context

          <name>Function Library</name>
          <t>The "position" and "last" functions <bcp14>SHOULD NOT</bcp14> be used.  This applies
to implicit use of the "position" function as well (e.g.,
<tt>'//chapter[42]'</tt>).  A server is only required to maintain the relative
XML document order of all instances of a particular user-ordered list
or leaf-list.  The "position" and "last" functions <bcp14>MAY</bcp14> be used if
they are evaluated in a context where the context node is a user-
ordered "list" or "leaf-list".</t>
          <t>The "id" function <bcp14>SHOULD NOT</bcp14> be used.  The "ID" attribute is not
present in YANG documents, so this function has no meaning.  The
XPath execution environment <bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14> return an empty string for this function.</t>
          <t>The "namespace-uri" and "name" functions <bcp14>SHOULD NOT</bcp14> be used.
Expanded names in XPath are different than YANG.  A specific
canonical representation of a YANG-expanded name does not exist.</t>
          <t>The "lang" function <bcp14>SHOULD NOT</bcp14> be used.  This function does not apply
to YANG because there is no "lang" attribute set with the document.
The XPath execution environment <bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14> return "false" for this function.</t>
          <t>The "local-name", "namespace-uri", "name", "string", and "number"
functions <bcp14>SHOULD NOT</bcp14> be used if the argument is a node-set.  If so,
the function result will be determined by the document order of the
node-set.  Since this order can be different on each server, the
function results can also be different.  Any function call that
implicitly converts a node-set to a string will also have this issue.</t>
          <t>The "local-name" function <bcp14>SHOULD NOT</bcp14> be used to reference local names
outside of the YANG module that defines the must or when expression
containing the "local-name" function.  Example of a "local-name"
function that should not be used:</t>

equality expression for identityref values.  This allows the
identities to be conceptually augmented.</t>

   be used within numeric or boolean expressions.  There are boundary
   conditions in which the translation from the YANG 64-bit type to an
   XPath number can cause incorrect results.  Specifically, an XPath
   "double" precision floating-point number cannot represent very large
   positive or negative 64-bit numbers because it only provides a total
   precision of 53 bits.  The "int64" and "uint64" data types <bcp14>MAY</bcp14> be
   used in numeric expressions if the value can be represented with no
   more than 53 bits of precision.</t>
          <t>Data modelers need to be careful not to confuse the YANG value space
   and the XPath value space.  The data types are not the same in both,
   and conversion between YANG and XPath data types <bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14> be considered
   carefully.</t>
          <t>Explicit XPath data type conversions <bcp14>MAY</bcp14> be used (e.g., "string",
   "boolean", or "number" functions), instead of implicit XPath data
   type conversions.</t>
          <t>XPath expressions that contain a literal value representing a YANG
   identity <bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14> always include the declared prefix of the module
   where the identity is defined.</t>
          <t>XPath expressions for "when" statements <bcp14>SHOULD NOT</bcp14> reference the
   context node or any descendant nodes of the context node.  They <bcp14>MAY</bcp14>
   reference descendant nodes if the "when" statement is contained
   within an "augment" statement, statement and the referenced nodes are not
   defined within the "augment" statement.</t>
          <t>Example:</t>
          <sourcecode name="" type="yang"><![CDATA[
augment "/rt:active-route/rt:input/rt:destination-address" {
  when "derived-from-or-self(rt:address-family, "

          <t>It is possible to construct XPath expressions that will evaluate
   differently when combined with several modules within a server
   implementation rather than when evaluated within the single module.
   This is due to augmenting nodes from other modules.</t>
          <t>Wildcard expansion is done within a server against all the nodes from
   all namespaces, so it is possible for a "must" or "when" expression
   that uses the <tt>'*'</tt> operator to always evaluate to false if processed
   within a single YANG module.  In such cases, the "description"
   statement <bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14> clarify that augmenting objects are expected to
   match the wildcard expansion.</t>

          <t>The YANG "must" and "when" statements use an XPath boolean expression
   to define the test condition for the statement.  It is important to
   specify these expressions in a way that will not cause inadvertent
   changes in the result if the objects referenced in the expression are
   updated in future revisions of the module.</t>
          <t>For example, the leaf "foo2" must exist if the leaf "foo1" is equal
   to "one" or "three":</t>
          <sourcecode name="" type="yang"><![CDATA[
     leaf foo1 {

     }

     leaf foo2 {
       // INCORRECT
       must "/f:foo1 != 'two'";
       type string;
     }
     leaf foo2 {
       // CORRECT
       must "/f:foo1 = 'one' or /f:foo1 = 'three'";
       type string;
     }
]]></sourcecode>

          <t>In the next revision of the module, leaf "foo1" is extended with a

          <name>Empty and Boolean</name>
          <t>YANG provides an "empty" data type, which has one value (i.e.,
   present).  The default is "not present", which is not actually a
   value.  When used within a list key, only one value can (and must)
   exist for this key leaf.  The type "empty" <bcp14>SHOULD NOT</bcp14> be used for a
   key leaf since it is pointless.</t>
          <t>There is really no difference between a leaf of type "empty" and a
   leaf-list of type "empty".  Both are limited to one instance.  The
   type "empty" <bcp14>SHOULD NOT</bcp14> be used for a leaf-list.</t>
          <t>The advantage of using type "empty" instead of type "boolean" is that
   the default (not present) does not take up any bytes in a
   representation.  The disadvantage is that the client may not be sure
   if an empty leaf is missing because it was filtered somehow or not
   implemented.  The client may not have a complete and accurate schema
   for the data returned by the server and may not be aware of the
   missing leaf.</t>
          <t>The YANG "boolean" data type provides two values ("true" and
   "false").  When used within a list key, two entries can exist for
   this key leaf.  Default values are ignored for key leafs, but a
   default statement is often used for plain boolean leafs.  The
   advantage of the "boolean" type is that the leaf or leaf-list has a
   clear representation for both values.  The default value is usually
   not returned unless explicitly requested by the client, so no bytes
   are used in a typical representation.</t>

   YANG data node types can be used instead to represent the desired

          <t>A non-presence container is used to organize data into specific
   subtrees.  It is not intended to have semantics within the data model
   beyond this purpose, although YANG allows it (e.g., a "must"
   statement within the non-presence container).</t>
          <t>Example using container wrappers:</t>
          <sourcecode name="" type="yang"><![CDATA[

          <t>Use of non-presence containers to organize data is a subjective

   these containers do not have any semantics, they can impact protocol

   container, so use of these containers <bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14> be considered carefully.</t>
          <t>The NETCONF and RESTCONF protocols do not currently support the

   is used in the YANG statements associated with a feature.  The
   description-stmt within a feature-stmt <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> specify any interactions
   with other features.</t>
        <t>The set of YANG features defined in a module should be considered
   carefully.  Very fine granular features increase interoperability
   complexity and should be avoided.  A likely misuse of the feature
   mechanism is the tagging of individual leafs (e.g., counters) with
   separate features.</t>
        <t>If there is a large set of objects associated with a YANG feature,
   then consider moving those objects to a separate module, module instead of
   using a YANG feature.  Note that the set of features within a module
   is easily discovered by the reader, but the set of related modules
   within the entire YANG library is not as easy to identify.  Module
   names with a common prefix can help readers identify the set of
   related modules, but this assumes the reader will have discovered and
   installed all the relevant modules.</t>
        <t>Another consideration for deciding whether to create a new module or
   add a YANG feature is the stability of the module in question.  It
   may be desirable to have a stable base module that is not changed
   frequently.  If new functionality is placed in a separate module,
   then the base module does not need to be republished.  If it is
   designed as a YANG feature, then the module will need to be
   republished.</t>
        <t>If one feature requires implementation of another feature, then an
   "if-feature" statement <bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14> be used in the dependent "feature"
   statement.</t>
        <t>For example, feature2 requires implementation of feature1:</t>

   definition statements that will be added as child nodes of a target

        <t>A top-level "augment" statement <bcp14>SHOULD NOT</bcp14> be used if the target data

          <t>The "augment" statement is often used together with the "when"

   conditional on some portion of the data model.</t>
          <t>The following example from <xref target="RFC8343"/> shows how a conditional

          <name>Conditionally Mandatory Data Definition Statements</name>
          <t>YANG has very specific rules about how configuration data can be
   updated in new releases of a module.  These rules allow an "old
   client" to continue interoperating with a "new server".</t>
          <t>If data nodes are added to an existing entry, the old client <bcp14>MUST NOT</bcp14>
   be required to provide any mandatory parameters that were not in the
   original module definition.</t>
          <t>It is possible to add conditional "augment" statements such that the
   old client would not know about the new condition and would not
   specify the new condition.  The conditional "augment" statement can
   contain mandatory objects only if the condition is false, unless
   explicitly requested by the client.</t>
          <t>Only a conditional "augment" statement that uses the "when" statement
   form of a condition can be used in this manner.  The YANG features
   enabled on the server cannot be controlled by the client in any way,
   so it is not safe to add mandatory augmenting data nodes based on the
   "if-feature" statement.</t>
          <t>The XPath "when" statement condition <bcp14>MUST NOT</bcp14> reference data outside
   of the target data node because the client does not have any control
   over this external data.</t>
          <t>In the following sample, it is okay to augment the "interface"
   entry with "mandatory-leaf" because the augmentation depends on
   support for "some-new-iftype".  The old client does not know about
   this type, so it would never select this type; therefore, it would
   not add a mandatory data node.</t>

          <t>Note that this practice is safe only for creating data resources.  It
   is not safe for replacing or modifying resources if the client does
   not know about the new condition.  The YANG data model <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> be
   packaged in a way that requires the client to be aware of the
   mandatory data nodes if it is aware of the condition for this data.
   In the example above, the "some-new-iftype" identity is defined in
   the same module as the "mandatory-leaf" data definition statement.</t>
          <t>This practice is not safe for identities defined in a common module
   such as "iana-if-type" because the client is not required to know

        <name>Deviation Statements</name>
        <t>Per <xref section="7.20.3" sectionFormat="of" target="RFC7950"/>, the YANG "deviation" statement is not
   allowed to appear in IETF YANG modules, but it can be useful for
   documenting server capabilities.  Deviation statements are not
   reusable and typically not shared across all platforms.</t>
        <t>There are several reasons that deviations might be needed in an
   implementation, e.g., an object cannot be supported on all platforms,
   or feature delivery is done in multiple development phases.
   Deviation statements can also be used to add annotations to a module,
   which does not affect the conformance requirements for the module.</t>
        <t>It is suggested that deviation statements be defined in separate
   modules from regular YANG definitions.  This allows the deviations to
   be platform specific and/or temporary.</t>
        <t>The order that deviation statements are evaluated can affect the
   result.  Therefore, multiple deviation statements in the same module,
   for the same target object, <bcp14>SHOULD NOT</bcp14> be used.</t>
        <t>The "max-elements" statement is intended to describe an architectural
   limit to the number of list entries.  It is not intended to describe
   platform limitations.  It is better to use a "deviation" statement
   for the platforms that have a hard resource limit.</t>

   used to represent similar semantics.</t>
          <t>The NETCONF Access Control Model (NACM) <xref target="RFC8341"/> does not support
   parameter-based access control for RPC operations.  The user is given
   permission (or not) to invoke the RPC operation with any parameters.
   For example, if each client is only allowed to reset their own
   interface, then NACM cannot be used.</t>
          <t>For example, NACM cannot enforce access control based on the value of
   the "interface" parameter, only the "reset" operation itself:</t>

          <t>IANA maintains a set of registries that are key for interoperability.
   The content of these registries are is usually available using various
   formats (e.g., plain text, text or XML).  However, there were was some confusion
   in the past about whether the content of some registries is dependent
   on a specific representation format.  For example, Section 5 of
   <xref target="RFC8892"/> target="RFC8892" section="5"/> was published to clarify that MIB and YANG modules are
   merely additional formats in which the "Interface Types (ifType)" and
   "Tunnel Types (tunnelType)" registries are available.  The MIB
   <xref target="RFC2863"/> and YANG modules (<xref target="RFC7224"/> <xref target="RFC7224"/><xref target="RFC8675"/> target="RFC8675"/>) are not separate
   registries, and the same values are always present in all formats of
   the same registry.</t>
          <t>A design, design in which a YANG module includes parameters and values directly in a
   module that is not maintained by IANA while these are populated in an
   IANA registry, registry could lead to ambiguity and maintain stale information. Such a design creates another
   source of information that may deviate from the IANA registry as new
   values are assigned or some values are deprecated.</t>
          <t>For the sake of consistency and the ability to support new values while
   maintaining IANA registries as the unique authoritative source of
   information, this document recommends the use of IANA-maintained modules
   as the single source of information.</t>
          <t>The following section provides a set of guidelines for YANG module authors
   related to the design of IANA-maintained modules.  These guidelines
   are meant to leverage existing IANA registries and use YANG as
   another format to present the content of these registries when
   appropriate.</t>
        </section>
        <section anchor="guidelines-for-iana-maintained-modules">
          <name>Guidelines for IANA-Maintained Modules</name>
          <t>When designing a YANG module for a functionality governed by a
   protocol for which IANA maintains a registry, it is <bcp14>RECOMMENDED</bcp14> to
   specify an IANA-maintained module that echoes the content of that
   registry.  This is superior to including that content in an
   IETF-maintained module.</t>
          <t>When one or multiple registries are available under the same
   registry group, it is <bcp14>RECOMMENDED</bcp14> to define an IANA-maintained module for
   each registry.  However, module designers <bcp14>MAY</bcp14> consider defining
   one single IANA-maintained module that covers all registries if
   maintaining that single module is manageable (e.g., very few values
   are present or expected to be present for each registry).  An
   example of such a module is documented in <xref section="5.2" sectionFormat="of" target="RFC9132"/>.</t>
          <t>An IANA-maintained module may use the "identityref" data type (e.g., <xref target="RFC8675"/>) or
   an enumeration data type (e.g., <xref target="RFC9108"/>). See <xref target="sec-fve"/> for a guidance on which data type to use. The decision about which type to use
   should be made based upon
   specifics related to the intended use of the IANA-maintained module.
   For example, identities are useful if the registry entries are
   organized hierarchically, possibly including multiple inheritances.
   The reasoning for the design choice <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> be
   documented in the companion specification that registers an
   IANA-maintained module. For example, <xref target="RFC9244"/> defines an IANA-maintained
   module that uses enumerations for the following reason:</t>

          <blockquote>
            <t>The DOTS telemetry module (Section 11.1) <xref target="RFC9244"
            section="11.1" sectionFormat="bare"/>) uses "enumerations" rather
            than "identities" to define units, samples, and intervals because
            otherwise the namespace identifier "ietf-dots-telemetry" must be
            included when a telemetry attribute is included (e.g., in a
            mitigation efficacy update).  The use of "identities" is thus
            suboptimal from the standpoint of message compactness, as message
            compactness is one of the key requirements for DOTS signal channel
            messages.</t>

<!--[rfced] Section 4.30.2: Would you like to update these
two paragraphs to make them more aligned? Or remove some text

  (B) says the I-D SHOULD supply the module when a script is used.

A) Original (paragraph 5):
   Designers of IANA-maintained modules <bcp14>MAY</bcp14> MAY supply the full initial
   version of the module in a specification document that registers the
   module or only a script to be used (including by IANA) for generating
   the module (e.g., an XSLT stylesheet as in Appendix A of [RFC9108] or
   a Python script as in [RFC9645]).  For both cases, the document that
   defines an IANA-maintained module MUST include a note indicating that
   the document is only documenting the initial version of the module
   and that the authoritative version is to be retrieved from the IANA
   registry

B) Original (paragraph 7):
   It is RECOMMENDED to include the URL from where to retrieve the
   recent version of the module.  When a script is used, the Internet-
   Draft that defines an IANA-maintained module have to include an
   appendix with the full script and SHOULD include an appendix with the
   initial full version of the module.  Including such an appendix in
   pre-RFC versions is meant to assess the correctness of the outcome of
   the supplied script.  The authors MUST include a note to the RFC
   Editor requesting that the appendix with the initial version of the
   module be removed before publication as RFC and that RFC IIII is
   replaced with the RFC number that is assigned to the document.

Also:
- May "in pre-RFC versions" be changed to "in Internet-Drafts"?
- May the phrases (A) "full initial version" and (B) "initial full version"
of the module be made consistent? They seemingly refer to the same concept.

<CODE BEGINS>

This document defines the initial version of the IANA-maintained
"iana-foo" YANG module.  The most recent version of the YANG module
is available from the "YANG Parameters" registry group
[IANA-YANG-PARAMETERS].

IANA is requested to add this note to the registry:

   New values must not be directly added to the "iana-foo" YANG
   module.  They must instead be added to the "foo" registry.

When a value is added to the "foo" registry, a new "identity"
statement needs to be added to the "iana-foo" YANG module.  The name
of the "identity" MUST be the name as provided in the registry.
The "identity" statement should have the following
sub-statements
substatements defined:

 "base":        Contains 'name-base-identity-defined-in-foo'.

 "status":      Include only if a registration has been deprecated or
                obsoleted.  IANA "deprecated" maps to YANG status
                "deprecated", and IANA "obsolete" maps to YANG status
                "obsolete".

 "description":  Replicates the description from the registry.

 "reference":   Replicates the reference(s) from the registry with
                the title of the document(s) added.

Unassigned or reserved values are not present in the module.

When the "iana-foo" YANG module is updated, a new "revision"
statement with a unique revision date must be added in front of the
existing revision "revision" statements.  The "revision" statement MUST
contain both "description" and "reference" substatements as follows.

The "description" substatement captures what changed in the
revised version.  Typically, the description enumerates the changes
such as udpates to existing entries (e.g., update a description or
a reference) or notes which identities were added or had their status
changed (e.g., deprecated, discouraged, or obsoleted).

  -- When such a description is not feasible, the description varies
  -- on how the update is triggered.

  -- If the update is triggered by an RFC, insert this text:

 The "description" substatement should include this text:
 "Applied updates as specified by RFC XXXX.".

  -- If the update is triggered following other IANA registration
  -- policy (Section 4 of [RFC8126]) but not all the values in the
  -- registry are covered by the same policy, insert this text:

 The "description" substatement should include this text:
 "Applied updates as specified by the registration policy
  <Some_IANA_policy>".

The "reference" substatement points specifically to the published
module (i.e., IANA_FOO_URL_With_REV).  It may also point to an
authoritative event triggering the update to the YANG module.  In all
cases, this event is cited from the underlying IANA registry.  If the
update is triggered by an RFC, that RFC must also be included in
the "reference" substatement.

  -- If a name in the IANA registry does not comply with the
  -- YANG naming conventions, add details how IANA can generate
  -- legal identifiers.  For example, if the name begins with
  -- a number, indicate a preference to spell out the number when
  -- used as an identifier.

IANA is requested to add this note to [reference-to-the-iana-foo-
registry]:

   When this registry is modified, the YANG module "iana-foo"
   [IANA_FOO_URL] must be updated as defined in RFC IIII.

This document defines the initial version of the IANA-maintained
"iana-foo" YANG module.  The most recent version of the YANG module
is available from the "YANG Parameters" registry group
[IANA-YANG-PARAMETERS].

IANA is requested to add this note to the registry:

    New values must not be directly added to the "iana-foo" YANG
    module.  They must instead be added to the "foo" registry.

When a value is added to the "foo" registry, a new "enum" statement
must be added to the "iana-foo" YANG module.  The "enum" statement,
and sub-statements substatements thereof, should be defined:

 "enum":        Replicates a name from the registry.

 "value":       Contains the decimal value of the IANA-assigned
                value.

 "status":      Is included only if a registration has been
                deprecated or obsoleted.  IANA "deprecated" maps
                to YANG status "deprecated", and IANA "obsolete"
                maps to YANG status "obsolete".

 "description":  Replicates the description from the registry.

 "reference":   Replicates the reference(s) from the registry with
                the title of the document(s) added.

Unassigned or reserved values are not present in the module.

When the "iana-foo" YANG module is updated, a new "revision"
statement with a unique revision date needs to be added in front of
the existing revision "revision" statements.  The "revision" statement MUST
contain both "description" and "reference" substatements as follows.

The "description" substatement captures what changed in the
revised version.  Typically, the description enumerates the changes
such as udpates to existing entries (e.g., update a description or
a reference) or notes which "enums" were added or had their status
changed (e.g., deprecated, discouraged, or obsoleted).

  -- When such a description is not feasible, the description varies
  -- on how the update is triggered.

  -- If the update is triggered by an RFC, insert this text:

 The "description" substatement should include this text:
 "Applied updates as specified by RFC XXXX.".

  -- If the update is triggered following other IANA registration
  -- policy (Section 4 of [RFC8126]) but not all the values in the
  -- registry are covered by the same policy, insert this text:

 The "description" substatement should include this text:
 "Applied updates as specified by the registration policy
  <Some_IANA_policy>".

The "reference" substatement points specifically to the published
module (i.e., IANA_FOO_URL_With_REV).  It may also point to an
authoritative event triggering the update to the YANG module.  In all
cases, this event is cited from the underlying IANA registry.  If the
update is triggered by an RFC, that RFC must also be included in
the "reference" substatement.

  -- If a name in the IANA registry does not comply with the
  -- YANG naming conventions, add details how IANA can generate
  -- legal identifiers.  For example, if the name begins with
  -- a number, indicate a preference to spell out the number when
  -- used as an identifier.

IANA is requested to add this note to [reference-to-the-iana-foo-
registry]:

    When this registry is modified, the YANG module "iana-foo"
    [IANA_FOO_URL] must be updated as defined in RFC IIII.

One strategy, called the "single backslash" strategy, is based on the historical use of a single backslash ('\') character to indicate where line-folding has occurred, with the continuation occurring with the first character that is not a space character (' ') on the next line. The second strategy, called the "double backslash" strategy, extends the first strategy by adding a second backslash character to identify where the continuation begins and is thereby able to handle cases not supported by the first strategy. Both strategies use a self-describing header enabling automated reconstitution of the original content.</t>

              <t>The standardization of network configuration interfaces for use with the Network Configuration Protocol (NETCONF) or the RESTCONF protocol requires a structured and secure operating environment that promotes human usability and multi-vendor interoperability. There is a need for standard mechanisms to restrict NETCONF or RESTCONF protocol access for particular users to a preconfigured subset of all available NETCONF or RESTCONF protocol operations and content. This document defines such an access control model.</t>

              <t>A Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) is a compact sequence of characters that identifies an abstract or physical resource. This specification defines the generic URI syntax and a process for resolving URI references that might be in relative form, along with guidelines and security considerations for the use of URIs on the Internet. The URI syntax defines a grammar that is a superset of all valid URIs, allowing an implementation to parse the common components of a URI reference without knowing the scheme-specific requirements of every possible identifier. This specification does not define a generative grammar for URIs; that task is performed by the individual specifications of each URI scheme. [STANDARDS-TRACK]</t>

              <t>This document specifies the initial version of a YANG module "iana-tunnel-type", which contains a collection of IANA-maintained YANG identities used as interface types for tunnel interfaces. The module reflects the "tunnelType" registry maintained by IANA. The latest revision of this YANG module can be obtained from the IANA website.</t>
              <t>Tunnel type values are not directly added to the Tunnel Interface Types YANG module; they must instead be added to the "tunnelType" IANA registry. Once a new tunnel type registration is made by IANA for a new tunneling scheme or even an existing one that is not already listed in the current registry (e.g., LISP, NSH), IANA will update the Tunnel Interface Types YANG module accordingly.</t>
              <t>Some of the IETF-defined tunneling techniques are not listed in the current IANA registry. It is not the intent of this document to update the existing IANA registry with a comprehensive list of tunnel technologies. Registrants must follow the IETF registration procedure for interface types whenever a new tunnel type is needed.</t>

              <t>Data models provide a programmatic approach to represent services and networks. Concretely, they can be used to derive configuration information for network and service components, and state information that will be monitored and tracked. Data models can be used during the service and network management life cycle (e.g., service instantiation, service provisioning, service optimization, service monitoring, service diagnosing, and service assurance). Data models are also instrumental in the automation of network management, and they can provide closed-loop control for adaptive and deterministic service creation, delivery, and maintenance.</t>
              <t>This document describes a framework for service and network management automation that takes advantage of YANG modeling technologies. This framework is drawn from a network operator perspective irrespective of the origin of a data model; thus, it can accommodate YANG modules that are developed outside the IETF.</t>

              <t>This document defines a YANG data model that can be used for communication between customers and network operators and to deliver a Layer 3 provider-provisioned VPN service. This document is limited to BGP PE-based VPNs as described in RFCs 4026, 4110, and 4364. This model is intended to be instantiated at the management system to deliver the overall service. It is not a configuration model to be used directly on network elements. This model provides an abstracted view of the Layer 3 IP VPN service configuration components. It will be up to the management system to take this model as input and use specific configuration models to configure the different network elements to deliver the service. How the configuration of network elements is done is out of scope for this document.</t>
              <t>This document obsoletes RFC 8049; it replaces the unimplementable module in that RFC with a new module with the same name that is not backward compatible. The changes are a series of small fixes to the YANG module and some clarifications to required
      I-D boilerplate (see <https://www.ietf.org/id-info/
      guidelines.html>), including the text.</t>

              <t>The YANG data modeling language is currently being considered for a wide variety of applications throughout the networking industry at large. Many standards development organizations (SDOs), open-source software projects, vendors, and users are using YANG to develop and publish YANG modules for a wide variety of applications. At the same time, there is currently no well-known terminology to categorize various types of YANG modules.</t>
              <t>A consistent terminology would help with the categorization of YANG modules, assist in the analysis of the YANG data modeling efforts in the IETF and other organizations, and bring clarity to the YANG- related discussions between the different groups.</t>

          8174 are included as normative references if the terminology defined
          therein is used in the document, that all references required by the
          boilerplate are present, that all YANG modules containing imported
          items are cited as normative references, and that all citations
          point to the most current RFCs, unless there is a valid reason to do
          otherwise (for example, it is okay to include an informative
          reference to a previous version of a specification to help explain a
          feature included for backward compatibility).  Be sure citations for
          all imported modules are present somewhere in the document text
          (outside the YANG module).  If a YANG module contains reference "reference" or
          "description" statements that refer to an I-D, then the I-D is
          included as an informative reference.</t>

Checking
          <t>Checking for correct syntax, however, is only part of the job.
          It is just as important to actually read the YANG module document
          from the point of view of a potential implementor.  It is
          particularly important to check that "description" statements are
          sufficiently clear and unambiguous to allow interoperable
          implementations to be created.</t>

<!--[rfced] We have the following questions related to terminology
usage throughout the document.

a) Should "IANA-maintained modules" be "IANA-maintained YANG modules"?
We made this change in the Abstract and Intro already, but should
this carry throughout the text?

b) We note that <CODE BEGINS>, <CODE ENDS>, and some other bracketed
terms (e.g., <b>) used in running text also appear in quotes (i.e.,
"<CODE BEGINS>") in some instances but simply bracketed in others
(e.g., <get>).  Please review and let us know if/how these may be made
consistent.

c) We note that templates in this document use a mix of filler numbers
for RFCs (e.g., RFC IIII, RFC XXXX, FFFF).  We suggest updating to use RFC
XXXX throughout.  Please let us know any objections.

d) Please review the use of module/model when it appears without YANG
and confirm that these instances appear as intended.  For example, (a)
uses "modules" and (b) uses "models" in the following:

Original:
   (a)  Modules that require immediate support for the NMDA features
        SHOULD be structured for NMDA.

        but then:

        ...as either an existing model or a
        model created by hand or with suitable tools that mirror the
        current modeling strategies.

         and:

  (b)  For published models, the model should be republished with an
       NMDA-compatible structure, deprecating non-NMDA constructs.

e) We note that there may be some inconsistency in the double quotes
around statement names.  For example, these terms are not quoted at
places in the text:

import statement
include statement
normative reference statement
XPath statement
extension statement
YANG statement
YANG extension statement
YANG conditional statement
reference statement
length statement
module tag extension statement

Please review and let us know if/how these should be updated to fit
with the other statement names (that are generally quoted).

NOTE 1: We have added some quotes to "revision" statement.  Please review
and confirm these changes.

NOTE 2: We see that the quotes around require-instance statement were
removed between RFC 8407 and this document.  Please review and confirm
this update is as intended.

NOTE 3: We sometimes see the use of YANG statement.  Should these simply be statement?

"when" statement vs. "when" YANG statement
"must" statement vs. "must" YANG statement

f) Further, there are some similar terms that may benefit from
quotation review.  We see:

when expression vs. "when" expression
must expression vs. "must" expression
"enumeration" data type vs. enumeration data type vs. enumeration typedefs
present vs. "not present"
anyxml vs. "anyxml"
descendant data nodes vs. "descendant" axis
user-ordered list vs. user-ordered "list"
leaf-list vs. "leaf-list"
false vs. "false"
true vs. "true"
"deprecated" vs. "status deprecated"

WTNGAgA= [rfced] We have the following questions related to the use of <tt>
element to mark certain terms in the XML file.

a) Please review instances in which more than one term is enclosed in
the <tt> tag.  For example, should:

<tt>"&lt;b&gt;" and "&lt;/b&gt;"</tt>

be made

<tt>"&lt;b&gt;"</tt> and <tt>"&lt;/b&gt;"</tt>

and we see both:

<tt>"&lt;CODE BEGINS&gt;" and "&lt;CODE ENDS&gt;"</tt>

and

<tt>"&lt;CODE BEGINS&gt;"</tt> and <tt>"&lt;CODE ENDS&gt;"</tt>

b) Please review the use of quotation marks (both single quotes and
double quotes) with these terms; specifically, should they be moved to
outside the <tt> tag?

For example, we see both:

<tt>"&lt;CODE BEGINS&gt;"</tt> tag

and

<tt>&lt;CODE BEGINS&gt;</tt> convention

c) Please review to ensure the usage of <tt> is consistent.  It
appears that there may be varying treatment of these terms.

d) Please review the use of <tt>&lt;&gt; with URLs.  Should these instead use <eref>?
For example:
Original: <tt>&lt;https://www.ietf.org/id-info/guidelines.html&gt;</tt>
Perhaps:  <eref target="https://www.ietf.org/id-info/guidelines.html" brackets="angle"/>

e) Other than CODE BEGINS / ENDS and URLs, we see the following uses
of <tt>. Please confirm these appear as you intended.

<tt>'//chapter[42]'</tt>
<tt>"&lt;b&gt;" and "&lt;/b&gt;"</tt>
<tt>&lt;get&gt;</tt>
<tt>'*'</tt>
