A.2. Example: Self-Managed LNE

This section describes an example of the LNE model using schema mount to achieve child-independent management. An example device supports multiple instances of LNEs (logical routers), each of which has the features of Layer 2 and Layer 3 interfaces [RFC8343], a routing information base [RFC8349], and the OSPF protocol. Each of these features is specified by a YANG model, and they are put together by the YANG schema mount as follows:

               // the parent management.
               // The child manages its modules, including ietf-routing
               // and ietf-interfaces

            +--ro name                yang:yang-identifier

    module: ietf-system
      +--rw system
      |  +--rw contact?          string
      |  +--rw hostname?         inet:domain-name
      |  +--rw authentication {authentication}?
      |     +--rw user-authentication-order*   identityref
      |     +--rw user* [name] {local-users}?
      |        +--rw name              string
      |        +--rw password?         ianach:crypt-hash

      +--ro system-state
         +--ro platform
         |  +--ro os-name?      string
         |  +--ro os-release?   string
Top   ToC   RFC8530 - Page 35
   To realize the above schema, the device implements the following
   schema mount instance:

   "ietf-yang-schema-mount:schema-mounts": {
     "mount-point": [
       {
         "module": "ietf-logical-network-element",
         "label": "root",
         "inline": {}
       }
     ]
   }

   By using the implementation of the YANG schema mount, an operator can
   create instances of logical routers, each with their logical router-
   specific inline modules.  An interface can be assigned to a logical
   router, so that the logical router has the permission to access this
   interface.  The OSPF protocol can then be enabled on this assigned
   interface.  Each logical router independently manages its own set of
   modules, which may or may not be the same as other logical routers.
   The following is an example of schema set implemented on one
   particular logical router:
