Operation
Description
XML example
edit-config:
default-operation
Modifies the current
configuration of the device
using the default operation
method.
If you do not specify an
operation attribute for an
edit-config message,
NETCONF uses one of the
following default operation
attributes:
merge
,
create
,
delete
, and
replace
. Your
setting of the value for the
<default-operation> element
takes effect only once. If you do
not specify an operation
attribute and the default
operation method for an
<edit-config> message,
merge
is always applied.
•
merge
—The default value
for the
<default-operation>
element.
•
replace
—Value used
when the operation
attribute is not specified
and the default operation
method is specified as
replace
.
•
none
—Value used when
the operation attribute is
not specified and the
default operation method
is specified as
none
. If this
value is specified, the
edit-config operation is
used only for schema
verification rather than
issuing a configuration. If
the schema verification is
passed, a successful
message is returned.
Otherwise, an error
message is returned.
To issue an empty operation for schema verification
purposes:
