Juergen,

not sure where we really landed with this. I see 6991bis-00 is available but without any of these types. I still think these data types makes sense and would like to see them included. There are some people against and there are some people for. Would it help if I wrote a few lines of YANG for this and sent to you?

Kind regards,
   Kristian.

Hello,

seeing that 6991 is up for a refresh I wonder if this would be the time to
suggest the addition of a type for address-and-prefix-length, for example
like 192.0.2.1/24?

I find that it's the most natural way express the address and prefix-length
to configure on an interface or for some other use. We currently have an
ip-prefix type which allows CIDR style prefixes but since all bits to the
right of the mask is to be 0 it is only possible to use for describing the
IP prefix / network address itself - not the address of a host in that
network.

I actually wish the interface-ip modules would have used a combined leaf for
these settings rather than the dual-leaf approach it currently has, but I
suppose that ship has sailed :/

Regardless, can we add such a type? Is this the document and time to do it?
:)

Kind regard,
    Kristian.
