Assuming LC means line card if not discard the following (and explain what LC means). I believe the answer here is that systems treat this differently and there is no universal answer. Some systems seem to store line card config on the line card itself, other systems associate config with the physical location of a port or interface, yet others associate config with a name of an interface (which may not indicate the physical location of an interface). Since implementations really differ here, we support multiple implementation options in the interfaces data model. /js -- Juergen Schoenwaelder Jacobs University Bremen gGmbH Phone: +49 421 200 3587 Campus Ring 1 | 28759 Bremen | Germany Fax: +49 421 200 3103 <http://www.jacobs-university.de/> _______________________________________________ netmod mailing list netmod@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/netmod
