Hi Mach,

Thanks for the comments, we will address all of these.

Specifically for the abstract, I propose changing the text to:

"

   This document defines a YANG data model for the management of the
   Address Resolution Protocol (ARP).  It extends the basic ARP
   functionality contained in the ietf-ip YANG data model, defined in
   [RFC8344], to provide management of optional ARP features and
   statistics.

   The YANG data model in this document conforms to the Network
   Management Datastore Architecture defined in [RFC8342].

"

Thanks,
Rob

Hello

I have been selected to do a routing directorate “early” review of this draft.
​ https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ding-rtgwg-arp-yang-model-02

The routing directorate will, on request from the working group chair, perform 
an “early” review of a draft before it is submitted for publication to the 
IESG. The early review can be performed at any time during the draft’s lifetime 
as a working group document. The purpose of the early review depends on the 
stage that the document has reached. As this document is in working group last 
call, my focus for the review was to determine whether the document is ready to 
be published. Please consider my comments along with the other working group 
last call comments.

Document: draft-ding-rtgwg-arp-yang-model-02
  Reviewer: Mach Chen
  Review Date: 01 August 2018
  Intended Status: Standards Track

Summary

The draft  defines a YANG model for ARP configurations, which covers static 
ARP, ARP caching, proxy ARP and gratuitous ARP. The model is very short and the 
content is straightforward. It can be a reasonable start point for WG adoption 
call.

General comments:

Although I am not a native English speaker, I also feel that the document needs 
some enhancements on its wording and grammar to make it more clean and readable.

For example,  the following text needs some rewording or may be removed.
Abstract:
"The data model performs as
    a guideline for configuring ARP capabilities on a system.  It is
    intended this model be used by service providers who manipulate
    devices from different vendors in a standard way."

Specific comments:

1. It's lack of the IANA section.

2. Section 3.1 and Section 3.3,  suggest to add relevant references to ARP 
caching and gratuitous ARP.

3.  import ietf-interfaces {
     prefix if;
     description
       "A Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA)
        compatible version of the ietf-interfaces module
        is required.";
   }
   import ietf-ip {
     prefix ip;
     description
       "A Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA)
        compatible version of the ietf-ip module is
        required.";
   }

Lack of the reference RFCs.
And the descriptions seem not appropriate, some of other descriptions in this 
document have the similar issue, suggest to revise those descriptions.

In addition, idnits tool shows:

== Missing Reference: 'RFC826' is mentioned on line 77, but not defined

   == Missing Reference: 'RFC6536' is mentioned on line 583, but not defined

   ** Obsolete undefined reference: RFC 6536 (Obsoleted by RFC 8341)

   == Unused Reference: 'I-D.ietf-netmod-rfc7223bis' is defined on line 606,
      but no explicit reference was found in the text

   == Unused Reference: 'RFC0826' is defined on line 636, but no explicit
      reference was found in the text


Best regards,
Mach
