Question
An engineer requires a solution to automate the configuration and deployment of remote network devices for a customer. The engineer must keep these considerations in mind:
- The customer's environment is based on industry-accepted standards
and requires a solution that meets these standards.
- The security requirements mandate the use of a secure transport
mechanism between the automation software and target devices such as SSH or TLS.
- The solution must be based on a human-readable and easy to parse
format such as XML or JSON. Which solution must be used to meet these requirements?
Options
- ASNMP
- BREST API

Explanation
NETCONF or Network Configuration Protocol (RFC 6241) is a network management protocol developed and standardized by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). The NETCONF protocol defines a simple mechanism through which a network device can be managed, configuration data can be retrieved, and new configuration data can be uploaded and The NETCONF protocol uses Remote Procedure Calls (RPCs) for its paradigm. A client encodes an RPC in XML and sends it to a server using a secure, connection-oriented session (such as Secure Shell Protocol [SSH]). The server responds with a reply encoded in XML. faq-en.html#NETCONF
