Internet-Draft Reporting Schema for NetConf Protocol October 2005
1. Introduction
NETCONF [NETCONF] configuration protocol defines Extensible Markup
Language [XML] based mechanisms to install, manipulate, and delete
the configuration of network devices.

Framework for Netconf Content [NETMOD] provides guidance for the
creation of data model that defines NetConf Content. This document
defines XML Schema that will be useful for reporting information
about the NetConf system.

2. NetConf Reporting Schema
The Netconf architecture supports a clear separation between content
and the underlying protocol operations, RPCs and transport that make
up the Netconf server. The Netconf architecture also supports a
separation between content and state data.
The following is the schema to report on this underlying state
information.
