Agree too,

It makes sense to "generalize" the concept of sets that can be shared between 
ACLs, so they can be used with other fields beyond those already identified 
with our use cases (prefixes and ports/port ranges) .

So, question for Netmod WG chairs, what would be the procedure to include such 
feature in the ACL module, given that it is defined in  an already published 
RFC? Is it via a new draft describing just the extension and referencing the 
original RFC and including the updated yang? Or it is an update of the existing 
RFC adding the new functionality (full description and full yang)? I am 
assuming the work implies creating a new revision of the module.

<tp.
New revision or new module?  RFC7950 lays down what can be changed in a new 
revision of a module and it would be good to see in summary what your revised 
YANG would look like.  I suspect that it would go beyond what is permitted in a 
revision ie you are proposing a new module, new name (but I could be wrong:-(.

Either way, it is an RFC. If the changes fall within those permitted then I 
would still expect a replacement RFC, as has happened with a number of YANG 
modules, e.g. those triggered by NMDA.

The chairs can guide you on procedure but it is the WG members, you, me and 
everyone else who have to do the work and so declare their willingness, or not, 
to take up the work which the chairs then use to decide whether or not the work 
should happen in the WG.

Tom Petch.

Asunto: Re: [netmod] Request for improvement in ACL YANG Model: add prefix-list 
to the match

I agree, a template based approach works well as it helps to share the set of 
fields between ACLs.

-thanks,

    I now understand that the original request was about two things:

    - allowing sets of prefixes in an ACL (instead of just a single)
    - sharing of sets of prefixes between ACLs

    And yes, if the WG goes there, then of course the same questions will
    come up for all the other possible header fields...

    - allowing sets of ports/port ranges
    - sharing of sets of ports/port ranges between ACLs

    [...]

to create rules, and for each a rule, in case of IPv4/IPv6 you can specify in 
the match the source-network and destination-network. The source-network (or 
equally the destination network) is in the model an address prefix. In our use 
case in Telefonica we are specifying a prefix-list for source network and 
another prefix list for destination network. If you had to create this behavior 
using the ACL model, you would need to create NxM rules. Besides, the 
management of those rules would be more complex.

already defined in an existing RFC?
