"NETCONF Event Notifications", Sharon Chisholm, Hector Trevino, 25-Feb-08. ( bytes)

This document defines mechanisms that provide an asynchronous message notification delivery service for the NETCONF protocol. This is an optional capability built on top of the base NETCONF definition. This document defines the capabilities and operations necessary to support this service.

"NETCONF over Transport Layer Security (TLS)", Mohamad Badra, 15-Feb-08. ( bytes)

The Network Configuration Protocol (NETCONF) provides mechanisms to install, manipulate, and delete the configuration of network devices. This document describes how to use the Transport Layer Protocol (TLS) to secure NETCONF exchanges.

"Partial Lock RPC for NETCONF", Balazs Lengyel, Martin Bjorklund, 25-Feb-08. ( bytes)

The NETCONF protocol defines the lock and unlock RPCs that lock entire configuration datastores. In some situations, a way to lock only parts of a configuration datastore is required. This document defines a capability-based extension to the NETCONF protocol for locking portions of a configuration datastore.

"NETCONF Monitoring Schema", Mark Scott, Sharon Chisholm, 26-Feb-08. ( bytes)

Today no standard method is defined to monitor the NETCONF protocol, including items such as sessions and subscription information. As NETCONF adds these and increasing capabilities which can impact configuration management, monitoring becomes increasingly important. This document defines NETCONF content via XML Schema to be used to monitor the Netconf protocol. It includes information about Netconf sessions, locks, and subscriptions and is intended to facilitate management of a NETCONF server. In addition this memo defines a mechanism to be able to discover all possible data models (XML Schemas) from a NETCONF server. This mechanism provides explicit references to supported schema versions and can be performed dynamically throughout a session, unlike capabilities exchange which is performed during session setup only.
