Technical Summary
This document contains a specification of three YANG modules and one
submodule. Together they form the core routing data model which
serves as a framework for configuring and managing a routing
subsystem. It is expected that these modules will be augmented by
additional YANG modules defining data models for control plane
protocols, route filters and other functions. The core routing data
model provides common building blocks for such extensions -- routes,
routing information bases (RIB), and control plane protocols.
Working Group Summary
This document has been discussed for a very long time within the
WG. At this point it has received extensive reviews and has solid
consensus behind it. One notable objection can be found [1]. Some of
the points are raised and are in the rough, others are addressed in
other ways.

Document Quality
This set of documents received extensive review within the working
group and ample time was spent to review and reconsider all design
choices. The document has been reviewed by Martin Bjorklund, who
is also a YANG doctor. Since the document is heavily touching on
routing, specific review was requested (by a previous chair) and lead to
a number of changes and another co-author being added to the document.
Multiple implementations are reportedly underway.
Personnel
Lou Berger is the document shepherd.
Benoit Claise is the responsible area director.
