Proposed Charter The Netconf Data Model Working Group would be charted to provide an initial framework to create XML data models for use with the Netconf protocol. Abstract information models on which all XML data models would be based may also be discussed. The working group will also produce some initial XML data models as proof of concept examples, as well as to meet specific industry need. The network configuration (netconf - http://www.ietf.org/html.charters/netconf-charter.html ) working group in the IETF is chartered to produce a protocol for network configuration. The data models to be used with this new protocol are outside the scope of that discussion. Even though the netconf architecture proposes to be independent of data definition and data model, it is critical to start talking about data models in more concrete terms to ensure there really aren't implications for either the protocol or the models as a result of combining them into system to provide management functionality. |
