Throughout the document, when it says:
There are two related items. 1) Section 3.7.1 "Security Considerations Section Template" begins X. Security Considerations The YANG module specified in this document defines a schema for data that is designed to be accessed via network management protocols such as NETCONF [RFC6241] or RESTCONF [RFC8040]. The lowest NETCONF layer is the secure transport layer, and the mandatory-to-implement secure transport is Secure Shell (SSH) [RFC6242]. The lowest RESTCONF layer is HTTPS, and the mandatory-to-implement secure transport is TLS [RFC8446]. 2) RFC 8470 says "the latest approved template (available at <https://trac.ietf.org/trac/ops/wiki/yang-security-guidelines>)". But the template at that URL says "the latest approved template (available at http://trac.tools.ietf.org/area/ops/trac/wiki/yang-security-guidelines)."
It should say:
1) It would be helpful if the beginning of the template contained a reference to RFC 8407 to provide a pointer back to where the templated section of Yang module definitions was instantiated from. Perhaps starting the template with "[Instantiated from the template of [RFC8407] section 3.7.1.]" 2) While the URL given in RFC 8407 works, the URL given in the online template only goes to a generic page, "Welcome to the IETF Community Wiki". Presumably the URL in the online template should be the URL of that page itself.
Notes:
Item (2) is a straightforward correction. Item (1) is in service to
having better pointers/references in our documents.
--VERIFIER NOTES--
1) The original text is not broken (including the URL). Text enhancements can be considered as part of https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-netmod-rfc8407bis/.
2) The Secretariat fixed the link.
