I'd suggest a slightly different wording: The processing of extensions depends on whether support for those extensions is claimed for a given YANG parser or the tool set in which it is embedded. An unsupported extension, appearing in a YANG module as an unknown-statement (see Section 14) MAY be ignored in its entirety. Any supported extension MUST be processed in accordance with the specification governing that extension.
