NETCONF is a network configuration and management protocol based on XML.

...

Note

Currently, we support <get>, <get-config>, <get-schema> and <edit-config>.

...

Code Block
admin@XorPlus# set protocols netconf 
admin@XorPlus# commit 
Commit OK.
Save done.
admin@XorPlus#

 


Delete NETCONF configuration on switch:

Code Block
admin@XorPlus# delete protocols netconf 
Deleting: 
    netconf {
    }
OK 
admin@XorPlus# commit 
Commit OK.
Save done.

 


YANG is a data modeling language used to model configuration and state data manipulated by NETCONF.
You can find the YANG module file of different modules on your switch under the directory "/pica/bin/netconf/data-models".

Example of VLAN configuration via NETCONF use <edit-config>:
...
 Code Block
The configuration has been changed by user root
DELTAS:
    vlans {
        vlan-id 136 {
            description: ""
            vlan-name: "default"
            l3-interface: "vlan136"
        }
    }
admin@XorPlus# show | display set 
    set protocols netconf 
    set vlans vlan-id 136 l3-interface "vlan136"
 
 


 Note
Now, we only support get the system's version information and vxlan information via NETCONF <get> function.

NETCONF client
About NETCONF client, you can use ncclient which is python lib now. 
 Note
If you use ncclient, you must modify the rpc.py : add two lines codes to work with pica8 switch.
Edit the rpc.py file to contain the followings before the statement ‘self._session.send(req)’:
req = req.replace('nc:','')
req = req.replace(':nc','')
...

 Get .yang or .yin File
The administrator can use get-schema operation to retrieve the .yang or .yin data file information on the PICA8 switch. For details about get-schema operation, see RFC6022 YANG Module for NETCONF Monitoring.
