Network Management Datastore Architecture
RFC 8342, “Network Management Datastore Architecture”, is a Proposed Standard document published in March 2018 by M. Bjorklund, J. Schoenwaelder, P. Shafer, K. Watsen, R. Wilton. It updates RFC 7950. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
Datastores are a fundamental concept binding the data models written in the YANG data modeling language to network management protocols such as the Network Configuration Protocol (NETCONF) and RESTCONF. This document defines an architectural framework for datastores based on the experience gained with the initial simpler model, addressing requirements that were not well supported in the initial model. This document updates RFC 7950.
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
