Abstract

The Internet Engineering Task Force has standardized a new network configuration management protocol called NETCONF, which provides mechanisms to install, manipulate, and delete the configuration of network devices. This article describes the NETCONF protocol and a recently introduced NETCONF data modeling language called YANG. The YANG language allows data modelers to define the syntax and semantics of device configurations, and supports translations to several XML schema languages.
