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.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
