For meeting today below are the points we can discuss. 1. Yang mount support in libyang was asked late 2018 but there are no plans to get it done by 2019, not sure about plans in 2020 https://github.com/CESNET/libyang/issues/691. 2. Currently we have augmented routing protocols under VRF which is FRR defined. With this we cannot keep IETF name in Yang file since we have modified it and hence may need to change it. Disadvantage of this approach is that all the protocols are forced under VRF. 3. Do not edit IETF routing yang and augment routing with a leafref to VRF. With this currently we have type and name as the key for routing protocol list and name should be unique for each VRF in the list for same protocol. 4. Do not edit IETF routing yang and augment routing with leaf name to leafref to VRF. This we are still trying to see if we can really do this.

Discussed over restrictions of network-instance in libyang. > Renato will be trying with deviation and see if we can get a workaround for this problem. Just checked and this won't be possible unfortunately. YANG deviations can only be used to change properties of a target node, they can't be used to transform a container into an augmentation for instance. In that case, what we can do is to have modified versions of IETF modules in our tree (like other people suggested). We would only need to name them differently to make it explicit they are not the original IETF modules. In the future, once support for schema mount is integrated into libyang, we can get rid of this hack and "migrate" to the original IETF modules. This is just one possibility, more discussions need to be done about this.

Have only minimum set of leaf which are common across all the modules.
