RFC 4741: NETCONF Configuration Protocol

This RFC has been replaced. Do not implement against it for new work — it was formally obsoleted by RFC 6241.

Current version: RFC 6241 — Network Configuration Protocol (NETCONF)

In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC

The Network Configuration Protocol (NETCONF) defined in this document provides mechanisms to install, manipulate, and delete the configuration of network devices. It uses an Extensible Markup Language (XML)-based data encoding for the configuration data as well as the protocol messages. The NETCONF protocol operations are realized on top of a simple Remote Procedure Call (RPC) layer. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
