TABLE 40 Supported Brocade NETCONF features
NETCONF protocol introduction
The Network Configuration protocol (NETCONF) uses Extensible Markup Language (XML) for
automated configuration management. The NETCONF protocol runs on top of a secure transport,
such as Secure Shell version 2 (SSHv2). Only one NETCONF session is supported at a time and any
new NETCONF connection requests are rejected after the first session has been established.
NETCONF provides mechanisms through which you can do the following:
• Manage multiple network devices
• Retrieve full or partial configuration and state data
• Upload and manipulate new configurations
