Status BOF at IETF 60 Given guidance to reduce scope... Several Internet Drafts Consolidated input into ‘Framework for Netconf Data Models’ chisholm-netconf-model-01.txt chisholm-netconf-model-01.txt

Scope Select a single existing data definition language for netconf content with emphasis placed on existing well-established solutions. Identify requirements and best practice for defining Access control Compliance Versioning & backwards compatibility naming How to define relationships between elements Design pattern for defining status, statistics and configuration information Notifications Error Handling Element Descriptions Proof of concept data model definition
