Probably D, since native models are vendor-specific and tied to platform features.

This one’s tricky, but I’d say D makes the most sense too. Native models are vendor-specific and focus on platform-specific features, which matches option D. A sounds like it’s describing OpenConfig or standards-based models, not native vendor ones. B and C don’t seem quite right since native models aren’t usually from individual devs or meant to be universal like OpenConfig. So D fits best with the idea that native models are tied to their own hardware features, unlike OpenConfig that tries to be platform-agnostic.

D. I think D fits because native models are vendor-specific and tailored to their own hardware features, unlike OpenConfig which aims for a more universal approach. Options A and B seem off since native models aren’t really independent or just made by individual developers. C sounds backwards since OpenConfig tries to avoid being tied to a single platform. So D captures the core difference about native models being tightly coupled to vendor platforms.

Maybe D makes sense since native models usually come from vendors and focus on their specific platform features, unlike OpenConfig which aims to be more standardized and platform-independent.
