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		: Using the Network Configuration Protocol (NETCONF) Over 
			  the Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP)
	Author(s)	: T. Goddard
	Filename	: draft-ietf-netconf-soap-03.txt
	Pages		: 19
	Date		: 2004-9-8
	
The device management protocol NETCONF is applicable to a wide range
   of devices in a variety of environments. The emergence of Web
   Services gives one such environment, and is presently characterized
   by the use of SOAP over HTTP.  NETCONF finds many benefits in this
   environment: from the re-use of existing standards, to ease of
   software development, to integration with deployed systems.  Herein,
   we describe a SOAP over HTTP binding that, when used with persistent
   HTTP connections, yields an application protocol sufficient for
   NETCONF.

In the body type:

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.
