Abstract:
This memo proposes a way of transporting NETCONF over WebSocket
protocol. Web-based systems are increasing with the advancement of
Web technologies and emergence of cloud computing. Management
systems that support browser-based interface are also getting common.
It's natural to expect network devices to have browser-based
managemaent interface. Currently, however, few network management
protocols support being transported over HTTP. NETCONF[RFC6241] was
defined to be sent over SOAP/HTTPS[RFC4743]. But, it falls short of
fulfilling NETCONF specification in that it can't provide NETCONF
notification[RFC5277] because of HTTP's lack of bi-directional
capabilty. At present, WebSocket protocol, the update of HTTP with
bi-directional capability, is available[RFC6455]. This memo
describes the way NETCONF is sent over WebSocket protocol.
