NETCONF support in Network OS
This section describes the support in Network OS for NETCONF features.
Table 2 describes the degree of support in Network OS for each NETCONF RPC. For details of the
RPCs listed in Table 2 , refer to RFC 4741.
To retrieve operational state data, Network OS supports two mechanisms: the Brocade custom
RPCs and the custom action mechanism. Refer to
Chapter 2, “Basic NETCONF Operations,” for
details about Brocade customized RPCs and the custom action mechanism.
TABLE 2 NETCONF RPCs supported in Network OS
RPC Function Support in Network OS
<copy-config> Copies the startup configuration to
the running configuration, copies the
running configuration to the startup
configuration, copies the startup or
running configuration to a remote file,
or copies the remote file to the
startup or running configuration. Use <bna-config-cmd> custom RPC instead.
<close-session> Terminates the current NETCONF
session gracefully. Supported
<delete-config> Deletes a configuration datastore. Supported
<edit-config> Makes changes to a configuration
datastore. The merge and delete operations are
supported. The replace and create operations
are not supported.
The <running> target is supported. The
<candidate> target is not supported.
The <error-option> element supports only the
stop-on-error value. It does not support the
continue-on-error or rollback-on-error values.
<get> Retrieves the entire or partial
configuration data and operational
state data. Retrieval of configuration data is supported.
Retrieval of operational state data is not
supported through the <get> RPC. Operational
state data is retrieved using the Brocade custom
RPCs and the custom action mechanism.
Configuration state data is not modeled in the
data models.
<get-config> Retrieves the entire or partial
configuration data. Supported
<kill-session> Forces the termination of a NETCONF
session. Supported
<lock> Locks a configuration datastore. Not supported
<unlock> Unlocks a configuration datastore. Not supported
