Thanks for addressing my DISCUSS points.

The comments below are from my initial ballot. I think you've probably addressed most of them, but I am leaving them for reference:

- General: I support Stephen's DISCUSS

-2.2: What is the real scope of this work? Is it expected to supplant the mentioned mechanisms?

- 2.3: "We need a new pub-sub
  technology"
The shepherd write up mentioned a goal to use existing technologies. Is the point of this sentence to suggest that is not feasible?

- 4.1, 4th paragraph:
The MAY doesn't seem right--is this a statement of fact that the subscriber may have to resubscribe, or a requirement of the form that the service MAY force the subscriber to resubscribe? (Be careful with MAYs in requirements language--they imply unexpected things. For example, several requirements say a SUBSCRIBE MAY do something--do those imply that the service MUST allow the subscriber to do it ?)

-- 4.2.2, third bullet: The previous section said dampening periods MUST be supported.

- 4.2.1, third paragraph: This is a bit ambiguous. I think it means to change the what subtrees the subscription applies to, but could be interpreted to change the subtrees themselves.

- 4.2.6.4: Would a mechanism that allowed out-of-order delivery but gave the subscriber a way to reconstruct the order fulfill this requirement?

Nits:
- The shepherd write up suggests this is standards track. The draft and tracker both say informational. Please update the shepherd writ up.

-3, last paragraph: What's the difference between a "Push" and an "Update"?

-4.1: A forward reference to the subscription QoS section would be helpful.

-- Last paragraph, last sentence: Sentence doesn't parse.


- 4.2.8, third paragraph: I don't think that should be a 2119 MAY

I'd like to chat about:

(1) 4.2.5, para2: Hang on - this is 2016 isn't it? :-) Why
would we ever have a pub/sub service whose subscribers can
pretend to be the service?

(2) Don't you need a statement somewhere that commensurate
security needs to be provided for pushed notifications as
was used for the original subscription? That might be a
little hard to phrase correctly but I hope we agree that
the notifications ought not be significantly less secure
than the subscription.

I have a couple of points I would like to discuss. Hopefully they can be resolved easily:

Are there really no requirements for privacy or integrity protection? Is there an expectation that this mechanism would ever carry privacy sensitive or otherwise sensitive information?

- 4.2.5, 2nd to last paragraph:
I am surprised to find that, when the receiver is not the subscriber, that the receiver is expected to opt-out. It seems like some form of opt-in or affirmative consent would be needed here.

[Ballot comment]

- I wondered if this was maybe of interest to more than
just i2rs, and if so, whether any effort had been made to
try figure out if these requirements work for folks who
don't care about i2rs? It'd seem a shame to work on this
but stop one step short of being appropriately general.
(But you probably already checked that I guess.)

- 4.2.2, last para: The MUST here seems like it may be
quite onerous, in general. Did someone think all of that
through? For example, what if the reason for declining is
that the Subscriber doesn't have sufficient privilege?
Saying what privilege is needed would be a breach of
least-privilege. Transient errors may also make this very
hard to do well. I'd suggest s/MUST/MAY/ and to also turn
the information returned into a hint and not a promise.

- 4.2.5, para 1: saying there "MUST be mutual
authentication" is odd - the usual terms would be "MUST
implement" or "MUST use" which of those does "MUST be"
mean?

- 4.2.8: when you say fetch... by whom? Is there an
implicit requirement in the title of the subsection?

Three DISCUSS points, which could be easily resolved IMO.

1. As mentioned on the NETMOD mailing list by Tom Petch, don't redefine the YANG datastore term:

>
> Meanwhile, draft-ietf-i2rs-pub-sub-requirements-05.txt is in IETF Last

>    data defined in YANG data models.  It is what is referred in existing
>    RFCs as "NETCONF datastore".  However, as the same datastore is no

>    datastore" is deemed more appropriate.

2. Maybe I read too much into this (at the time of specifying the operational state in NETMOD) ...

  A Subscription Service MUST be able support a Subtree Filter so that
  subscribed updates under a target node might publish only operational
  data, only configuration data, or both.

Proposal: s/Subtree Filter/Filter

3. In the security considerations section

  Versioning MUST be supported.

Versioning of what? Yang push protocol, subscription, transport session, state of of subscription, something else?

[Ballot comment]
- Editorial
  Based on
  current I2RS requirements, NETCONF should the initially supported
  transport based on the need for connection-oriented/unicast
  communication.

s/should/should be

- Editorial:
  A Subscription MAY include filters as defined

s/filters/Filters

Note: there are multiple instances of filter -> Filter

- AND is not a RFC2119 keyword
  For "on-change" notifications, passing
  through the Filter requires that a subscribed object is now different
  that from the previous Push, AND at least one of the YANG objects
  being evaluated has changed since the last Update.

-
I always wonder what a MAY requirement means? Example:

  A Subscriber MAY check with a Subscription Service to validate the
  existence and monitored subtrees of a Subscription.

Or:
  A Subscription Service MAY send Updates over Best Effort and Reliable
  transports.

What if  https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-netconf-yang-push/ doesn't address this requirement (I haven't checked), are we good or not?

Subject: Last Call:  (Requirements for Subscription to YANG Datastores) to Proposed Standard


The IESG has received a request from the Interface to the Routing System
WG (i2rs) to consider the following document:
- 'Requirements for Subscription to YANG Datastores'
  as Proposed Standard

The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits
final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the
ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2016-04-29. Exceptionally, comments may be
sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the
beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting.

Abstract


  This document provides requirements for a service that allows client
  applications to subscribe to updates of a YANG datastore.  Based on
  criteria negotiated as part of a subscription, updates will be pushed
  to targeted recipients.  Such a capability eliminates the need for
  periodic polling of YANG datastores by applications and fills a
  functional gap in existing YANG transports (i.e.  Netconf and
  Restconf).  Such a service can be summarized as a "pub/sub" service
  for YANG datastore updates.  Beyond a set of basic requirements for
  the service, various refinements are addressed.  These refinements
  include: periodicity of object updates, filtering out of objects
  underneath a requested a subtree, and delivery QoS guarantees.

Template date: 2/24/2012
Date of Shepherd report: 1/4/2016

Type of RFC:  Standards document
This document is part of a series of documents that specify requirements for an I2RS protocol.
If possible, the I2RS protocol is to be created as an amalgamation of existing protocols that
can be combined to create the architecture described in the I2RS architecture document.
(https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-i2rs-architecture/). 

For example, the I2RS protocol could be be compromised of configuration and notification
from NETCONF/RESTConf) and an analytical protocol (e.g. IPFix).

The requirements for the first version of I2RS are:
1) model driven ephemeral state - that is data models that do not survive
    a software or hardware reboot. 
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-i2rs-ephemeral-state/

2) a secure protocol -
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-i2rs-protocol-security-requirements/

3) traceability - ability to record interactions between I2RS elements
(Client, Agent, Routing system)
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-i2rs-traceability/

4) notification publication via subscription
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-i2rs-pub-sub-requirements/

5) Protocol to pass Data for Analytics 
The first version of these requirements does not include a
separate analytical protocol requirements as the simple use cases may
pass information via query/poll or the notifications.

The I2RS protocol exists in an secure environment described by:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-i2rs-security-environment-reqs/

(2) The IESG approval announcement includes a Document Announcement
Write-Up. 

Technical Summary

  This document provides requirements for a service that allows client
  applications to subscribe to updates of a YANG datastore.  Based on
  criteria negotiated as part of a subscription, updates will be pushed
  to targeted recipients.  Such a capability eliminates the need for
  periodic polling of YANG datastores by applications and fills a
  functional gap in existing YANG transports (i.e.  Netconf and
  Restconf).  Such a service can be summarized as a "pub/sub" service
  for YANG datastore updates.  Beyond a set of basic requirements for
  the service, various refinements are addressed.  These refinements
  include: periodicity of object updates, filtering out of objects
  underneath a requested a subtree, and delivery QoS guarantees.

Working Group Summary
Working consensus for requirements was honed over 6 months (May -Nov 2015).
WG LC done on individual draft 5/26/2015 to 6/9/2015
WG LC done with All of requirement drafts 10/6/2015 to 10/20/2015

Document Quality

  This draft is comes out of the work with Open Daylight Project
  and other implementations of early prototype implementations of I2RS protocol.

  A significant number of vendors have indicated their plan to
expand existing protocols to create an IRS amalgamate protocol.
A list includes the following: Cisco, Juniper, Huawei, Ericsson,
Google, Packetdesign (Client software) and others.

  Reviews of the requirement package deeply looked in t the 
  The NETCONF reviewed the traceability document and found no additional
  requirements for the NETCONF or RESTCONF suite. 

  The security directorate QA review found that traceability did not by itself
  provide security's level of assurance or tracing.  Traceability  was targeted for logging
  information that adds to data assurance or tracing. 

  Routing QA review is pending.

(3) Briefly describe the review of this document that was performed by
the Document Shepherd.  If this version of the document is not ready
for publication, please explain why the document is being forwarded to
the IESG.

Technical and editorial reviews were done at June and December.
Shepherd's report is at:
https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/i2rs/diCAuZlY0cG8pW1k9E-6kil-0Tc

All issues in shepherd's report have been addressed by:
draft-ietf-i2rs-pub-sub-requirements-04

(4) Does the document Shepherd have any concerns about the depth or
breadth of the reviews that have been performed?

Shephered is satisfied with QA-reviews performed to date, but
AD has indicated that a RTG-QA review is necessary prior to AD evaluation.

Final reviews from Security Directorate and OPS-DIR should be done on all
5 documents in the requirements suite.

NETCONF WG reviewers (July and November 2015) understood this requirement,
and accepted the yang push technical description as a NETCONF WG document:
(https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-netconf-yang-push/)

Other protocols included in an I2RS amalgamated protocol will need to develop
similar mechanisms so this requirement document is necessary.

(5) Do portions of the document need review from a particular or from
broader perspective, e.g., security, operational complexity, AAA, DNS,
DHCP, XML, or internationalization? If so, describe the review that
took place.

Early NETCONF reviews were done.

Final reviews from Security Directorate and OPS-DIR should be done on all

Template date: 2/24/2012
Date of Shepherd report: 1/4/2016

Type of RFC:  Standards document
This document is part of a series of documents that specify requirements for an I2RS protocol.
If possible, the I2RS protocol is to be created as an amalgamation of existing protocols that
can be combined to create the architecture described in the I2RS architecture document.
(https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-i2rs-architecture/). 

For example, the I2RS protocol could be be compromised of configuration and notification
from NETCONF/RESTConf) and an analytical protocol (e.g. IPFix).

The requirements for the first version of I2RS are:
1) model driven ephemeral state - that is data models that do not survive
    a software or hardware reboot. 
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-i2rs-ephemeral-state/

2) a secure protocol -
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-i2rs-protocol-security-requirements/

3) traceability - ability to record interactions between I2RS elements
(Client, Agent, Routing system)
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-i2rs-traceability/

4) notification publication via subscription
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-i2rs-pub-sub-requirements/

5) Protocol to pass Data for Analytics 
The first version of these requirements does not include a
separate analytical protocol requirements as the simple use cases may
pass information via query/poll or the notifications.

The I2RS protocol exists in an secure environment described by:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-i2rs-security-environment-reqs/

(2) The IESG approval announcement includes a Document Announcement
Write-Up. 

Technical Summary

  This document provides requirements for a service that allows client
  applications to subscribe to updates of a YANG datastore.  Based on
  criteria negotiated as part of a subscription, updates will be pushed
  to targeted recipients.  Such a capability eliminates the need for
  periodic polling of YANG datastores by applications and fills a
  functional gap in existing YANG transports (i.e.  Netconf and
  Restconf).  Such a service can be summarized as a "pub/sub" service
  for YANG datastore updates.  Beyond a set of basic requirements for
  the service, various refinements are addressed.  These refinements
  include: periodicity of object updates, filtering out of objects
  underneath a requested a subtree, and delivery QoS guarantees.

Working Group Summary
Working consensus for requirements was honed over 6 months (May -Nov 2015).
WG LC done on individual draft 5/26/2015 to 6/9/2015
WG LC done with All of requirement drafts 10/6/2015 to 10/20/2015

Document Quality

  This draft is comes out of the work with Open Daylight Project
  and other implementations of early prototype implementations of I2RS protocol.

  A significant number of vendors have indicated their plan to
expand existing protocols to create an IRS amalgamate protocol.
A list includes the following: Cisco, Juniper, Huawei, Ericsson,
Google, Packetdesign (Client software) and others.

  Reviews of the requirement package deeply looked in t the 
  The NETCONF reviewed the traceability document and found no additional
  requirements for the NETCONF or RESTCONF suite. 

  The security directorate QA review found that traceability did not by itself
  provide security's level of assurance or tracing.  Traceability  was targeted for logging
  information that adds to data assurance or tracing. 

  Routing QA review is pending.

(3) Briefly describe the review of this document that was performed by
the Document Shepherd.  If this version of the document is not ready
for publication, please explain why the document is being forwarded to
the IESG.

Technical and editorial reviews were done at June and December.
Shepherd's report is at:
https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/i2rs/diCAuZlY0cG8pW1k9E-6kil-0Tc

All issues in shepherd's report have been addressed by:
draft-ietf-i2rs-pub-sub-requirements-04

(4) Does the document Shepherd have any concerns about the depth or
breadth of the reviews that have been performed?

Shephered is satisfied with QA-reviews performed to date, but
AD has indicated that a RTG-QA review is necessary prior to AD evaluation.

Final reviews from Security Directorate and OPS-DIR should be done on all
5 documents in the requirements suite.

NETCONF WG reviewers (July and November 2015) understood this requirement,
and accepted the yang push technical description as a NETCONF WG document:
(https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-netconf-yang-push/)

Other protocols included in an I2RS amalgamated protocol will need to develop
similar mechanisms so this requirement document is necessary.

(5) Do portions of the document need review from a particular or from
broader perspective, e.g., security, operational complexity, AAA, DNS,
DHCP, XML, or internationalization? If so, describe the review that
took place.

Early NETCONF reviews were done.

Final reviews from Security Directorate and OPS-DIR should be done on all
5 documents in the requirements suite.

(6) Describe any specific concerns or issues that the Document Shepherd
has with this document that the Responsible Area Director and/or the
IESG should be aware of?

No specific concerns or issues on this document.

(7) Has each author confirmed that any and all appropriate IPR
disclosures required for full conformance with the provisions of BCP 78
