Client Application’s Role in a NETCONF Session
To create a session and communicate with the NETCONF server,
a client application performs the following procedures, which are
described in the indicated sections:
- Establishes a connection to the NETCONF server on the
routing platform, as described in Connecting to the NETCONF Server.
- Opens a NETCONF session, as described in Starting the NETCONF Session.
- (Optional) Locks the candidate configuration, as described
in Locking the Candidate Configuration. Locking the configuration prevents
other users or applications from changing it at the same time.
- Requests operational or configuration information, or
changes configuration information, as described in Requesting Information and Changing Configuration Information.
- (Optional) Verifies the syntactic correctness of a configuration
before attempting to commit it, as described in Verifying a Configuration Before Committing It.
- Commits changes made to the configuration, as described
in Committing a Configuration.
- Unlocks the candidate configuration if it is locked, as
described in Unlocking the Candidate Configuration.
- Ends the NETCONF session and closes the connection to
the routing platform, as described in Ending a NETCONF Session and Closing the Connection.
