RE: 8.1) <get-all>



I would concur Tim's view.  <get>, <edit>, <delete>, <copy>, <create> with
the proper target: config (default), named config, state, etc.

All,

I have to ask if we have get-config, edit-config, delete-config,
copy-config, and these are all relative to a target (running or named
config) then what is the target for 'get'? Is this implicitely 'state'
information, are there potentials for using get in terms of filtering
(subtree retreival). It sounds like we are starting to define operators
against the data rather than a container of the data. If this is the case
won't we have to address the create issue as was brought up on the list and
then the mod and delete issue?

If this is the path we are going down then the original operations appear
restrictive, why have get-config when you can have get <target>, edit
<target>, delete <target> where target can be a container like the reserved
'running-config' or a file, or a data element.

I didn't open this can of worm soup but I have to stir the pot.

thanks,

Tim

I agree that <get> would be better.
