Hi, authors: In RFC8529, the bind-network-instance-name leaf provides the association between an interface and its associated NI. However it is not clear to me why the same association between Ipv4/Ipv6 type and its association NI Should be provided as well? See model structure snippet defined in RFC8529 as follows: “ augment /if:interfaces/if:interface: +--rw bind-ni-name? -> /network-instances/network-instance/name augment /if:interfaces/if:interface/ip:ipv4: +--rw bind-ni-name? -> /network-instances/network-instance/name augment /if:interfaces/if:interface/ip:ipv6: +--rw bind-ni-name? -> /network-instances/network-instance/name “ So the question is Can we add different NI name for IPv4/IPv6 type? Isn’t IPv4 type and IPv6 type and interface pointing to the same NI name? Why IPv4 type and IPv6 type in IP data model can not inherit the same NI name from the interface model since IP Data model is an extension to Interface Data Model? The model allows the IPv4/IPv6 level of granularity for network-instance specification. However, many, if not most, implementations do not. My memory is hazy as to which implementation(s) supports this. Thanks, Acee Suppose we configure interface and associated IP addresses and assign this interface to a NI, Which configuration snippet is correct: Option A: { "name": "eth1", "type": "iana-if-type:ethernetCsmacd", "ietf-ip:ipv4": { "address": [ { "ip": "192.0.2.11", "prefix-length": 24 } ] "ietf-network-instance:bind-network-instance-name": "vrf-red" }, "ietf-ip:ipv6": { "address": [ { "ip": "2001:db8:0:2::11", "prefix-length": 64 } ] "ietf-network-instance:bind-network-instance-name": "vrf-red" }, "ietf-network-instance:bind-network-instance-name": "vrf-red" }, Option B: { "name": "eth1", "type": "iana-if-type:ethernetCsmacd", "ietf-ip:ipv4": { "address": [ { "ip": "192.0.2.11", "prefix-length": 24 } ] }, "ietf-ip:ipv6": { "address": [ { "ip": "2001:db8:0:2::11", "prefix-length": 64 } ] }, "ietf-network-instance:bind-network-instance-name": "vrf-red" }, -Qin
