A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Network Configuration Working Group of the IETF.
Title : NETCONF Configuration Protocol
Author(s) : R. Enns
Filename : draft-ietf-netconf-prot-01.txt
Pages : 75
Date : 2003-10-27
There is a need for standardized mechanisms to manipulate, install,
edit, and delete the configuration of a network device. In addition,
there is a need to retrieve device state information and receive
asynchronous device state messages in a manner consistent with the
configuration mechanisms. There is great interest in using an
XML-based data encoding because a significant set of tools for
manipulating ASCII text and XML encoded data already exists.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-netconf-prot-01.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
