[Qin]: As described in Appendix-A.3, two ways to interact with other datastore are discussed, one is interact implicitly, the other is to use RPC to trigger application of the datastore's data, in factory default setting case, <factory-reset> rpc will reset the contents of all relevant datastores to factory default state. The extreme case of factory default state is no configuration at all for each datastore. >It is not clear why it is even needed since <factory-default> contains only >system settings. [Qin]: I agree <factory-default> could have system setting. But unspecified for some reasons. Based on earlier discussion on factory default, what content is included in <factory-default> and how to format this content, e.g., YANG instance file format Have been ruled out of the scope.
