Thank Eliot for pointing out these questions. I share a similar view with Qin, and I suggest to make the following changes in the next version:
1. draft-ietf-opsawg-tacacs will be changed as a normative reference according to RFC3967. 2. For the second point, I think your concern may be whether the TACACS + YANG model is flexible enough to accommodate the TACACS advanced features. The current TACACS + YANG architecture is designed with per-server configuration and statistics methods. Each server is configured with a TCP port and a shared key. These nodes may change to use a "choice" statement. If the TACACS++ extends to use TLS protocol, the transport extensions can be added as new "case" statements.

Do we have YANG data model draft developed by IETF published as informational RFC? I haven’t seen one. 2. This model uses system management YANG data model defined in RFC7317 as base model and augment it with TACACS+ specifics, and RFC7317 is standard track RFC. 3. Downref is allowed in some circumstance, See RFC3967 section 2, first two bullets. 4. TACACS+ protocol has been moved for publication. Whether or not TACACS++ comes later, TACACS+ will be basis for any advanced features. So timing is perfect. -Qin 发件人: OPSAWG [mailto:opsawg-boun...@ietf.org] 代表 Tianran Zhou 发送时间: 2019年7月9日 10:35 收件人: Eliot Lear <l...@cisco.com<mailto:l...@cisco.com>> 抄送: opsawg@ietf.org<mailto:opsawg@ietf.org>; OpsAWG Chairs <opsawg-cha...@ietf.org<mailto:opsawg-cha...@ietf.org>> 主题: Re: [OPSAWG] WG adoption poll for draft-zheng-opsawg-tacacs-yang-02 Hi Eliot, Thanks for your suggestions.

Tianran From: Eliot Lear [mailto:l...@cisco.com] Sent: Monday, July 08, 2019 8:13 PM To: Tianran Zhou <zhoutian...@huawei.com<mailto:zhoutian...@huawei.com>> Cc: opsawg@ietf.org<mailto:opsawg@ietf.org>; OpsAWG Chairs <opsawg-cha...@ietf.org<mailto:opsawg-cha...@ietf.org>> Subject: Re: [OPSAWG] WG adoption poll for draft-zheng-opsawg-tacacs-yang-02 Hi Tianran, I have two concerns about this draft. First is the intended status of this document. It currently calls out draft-ietf-opsawg-tacacs as an informational reference. I think the question here is really whether this draft should also be informational. As a practical matter you really do need to have implemented the other draft for this one to be implemented. And that means that really it should be a normative reference. But it would be a downref. To address this, I suggest just making this document an informational draft, rather than targeting for standards, and make the reference normative. [Tianran] Yes, I have the same concern. You provided a good approach. On the other hand, I think RFC3967 described this case. “2. The Need for Downward References … o A standards document may need to refer to a proprietary protocol, and the IETF normally documents proprietary protocols using informational RFCs.” In addition, I have another question. Is there interest or appetite for creating a standardized and more version of T+? If so, is the timing of a standardized YANG model appropriate? [Tianran] I would like to see how the WG would like to approach.
