Question

What is a benefit of YANG modules?

Options

  • Atightly coupled models with encoding to improve performance
  • Beasier multivendor interoperability provided by common or industry models
  • Cavoidance of ecosystem fragmentation by having fixed modules that cannot be changed
  • Dsingle protocol and model coupling to simplify maintenance and support

Explanation

YANG modules enhance multivendor interoperability by providing common or industry-standard data models, enabling devices from different vendors to be managed and configured consistently.

Common mistakes.

  • A. YANG models are generally designed to be independent of specific encoding (like XML or JSON) for flexibility, not tightly coupled for performance.
  • C. YANG modules are designed to be extensible and can be augmented, not fixed, to allow for vendor-specific features while maintaining interoperability.
  • D. YANG models are designed to be protocol-agnostic, working with NETCONF and RESTCONF, not coupled to a single protocol.
