[Dev] A couple of ideas for expanding the model

[James Brunner]

I happened to be stuck on a train for a couple of hours and started to think my way through some things that current NA customers had asked for, namely Failover modelling (HSRP, VRRP etc), MPLS high level modelling and NTP modelling - and as we all know ZipTie is a damn sight more flexible I thought I'd try this here first ;)

Attached are three RFS (Request-for-sarcasm) for each of the extensions written in a really crummy version of a Syntactical language (but hey, I did syntactical analysis at University in 1991 so I'm allowed to forget stuff!)

They all start from the "device" root - which I suppose equates to the root of the ZED.

I've tried to get the key information into the model without going really granular which always favours one make over another - they (should) work perfectly for all main manufacturers across their different implementations of all three.
