Speakers: Carl Moberg, Tail-F
Network providers are challenged by new requirements for fast and error-free service turn-up. Existing approaches to configuration management, such as CLI scripting, device-specific adapters, and entrenched commercial tools, are an impediment to meeting these new requirements. Until recently, there has been no standard way of configuring network devices other than SNMP, which is not optimal for configuration management. The IETF has released NETCONF (RFC 6241) and YANG (RFC 6020), which are standards focusing on configuration management. The presentation will give a technical overview of these standards, and will show how NETCONF and YANG address issues around automation and programmability. The tutorial will also contain live demos.
