Why each option
RESTCONF supports HTML and JSON encodings when using YANG, distinguishing it from NETCONF which primarily uses XML.
RESTCONF leverages HTTP, making it compatible with various web-centric data formats, including HTML. While less common for data exchange in automated systems, HTML can be used to represent information.
XML (Extensible Markup Language) is the primary encoding used by NETCONF for data exchange and is also supported by RESTCONF, but the question asks for encodings supported with RESTCONF "rather than with NETCONF", implying unique or preferred RESTCONF formats over NETCONF's primary XML.
CCS is not a standard data encoding format used with RESTCONF or NETCONF.
JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data-interchange format that is widely used in web services and is a primary encoding supported by RESTCONF for representing YANG-modeled data.
CES is not a standard data encoding format used with RESTCONF or NETCONF.
