Hi, I have one addition on top of Eric's response
--- Alex > > Is your alias mount simply a special case of a peer mount where the > peer is local? Or is there more to it? >From a syntax standpoint, peer mount is more general. But underneath, things >get more complicated. For example, many of the initial concerns about peer mount were on the implications of synchronizing objects across distributed systems. (I.e., Eventual consistency is not appropriate when attempting to manage some type of objects.) Alias mount shouldn't have this issue. <ALEX> So, yes, alias mount is a special and simple case. Perhaps the most relevant aspect to characterize this is that the authoritative owner in alias mount is the same Netconf server, whereas in peer mount authoritative owners will be different. For this reason, peer mount will be better suited for read-only views. </ALEX> _______________________________________________ netmod mailing list netmod@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/netmod
