NETCONF in SR OS
NETCONF can be used on an SR OS router to perform router management operations
including:
• Change the configuration of the router (<edit-config> operation)
• Read the configuration of the router (<get-config> operation, equivalent to the "info"
command in CLI)
• Read operational status and data (and associated configuration information) (<get>
operation, equivalent to the "show" commands in CLI)
NETCONF is not used for notifications; for example, log events, syslog, or SNMP
notifications (traps).
The equivalent of some admin commands are available via the NETCONF interface:
• "admin save" can be done using the <copy-config> operation.
• "admin rollback" commands are supported using a CLI content layer <cli-action>
RPC.
“bof”, “debug”, “tools”, and other general CLI operational commands (e.g. “telnet” or “ping”)
are not supported via NETCONF.
The SR OS NETCONF server advertises base capability 1.1 (in addition to 1.0).
