Managing the Device via
NETCONF
NETCONF is a network management protocol defined by IETF. It provides a
simple mechanism for managing network devices, retrieving configuration-data
information, and uploading and manipulating new configuration data.
The NETCONF protocol uses the Remote Procedure Call (RPC) model. The
Netconf Manager (client) sends a set of RPC request operations that trigger the
Netconf Agent (server, in this case AS9216) to respond with a corresponding
set of RPC replies.
NETCONF provides the following features:
distinction between configuration and state data
multiple configuration datastores (such as running and startup)
support for configuration change transactions
configuration testing and validation support
selective data retrieval with filtering
streaming and playback of event notifications
extensible remote procedure call mechanism
NETCONF Sessions
A NETCONF session is the logical connection between a network
administrator or network configuration-application and a network device.
