NETCONF Capabilities and
Namespaces
This section describes the NETCONF capabilities supported by RUGGEDCOM ROX II.
NETCONF capabilities describe the functions and namespaces supported by a NETCONF peer. When you connect
to the NETCONF service on a device, the device advertises its capabilities in a <hello> message.
Capabilities and namespaces are reported within
<capability>
elements in the
<hello>
message. A
<capability>
element describes a capability or a namespace:
• a capability is a function or service provided by the device. For example, the ability to commit changes to the
database or to lock a portion of the database are capabilities .
• a namespace is a definition of data elements. For example, the definition of standard Internet address elements
and the definition of NETCONF configuration parameters are namespaces .
NETCONF supports both standard IETF NETCONF capabilities and vendor-defined capabilities that are unique to
the product platform.
NETCONF uses namespaces that define the NETCONF configuration data model and that support various
capabilities.

IETF Capabilities
The following are the standard IETF capabilities supported by NETCONF. These capabilities define most of the
actions that can be performed through NETCONF on a device.
Capabilities Description
<capability>urn:ietf:params:netconf:base:1.0</capability> This is the base NETCONF capability. When replying to the <hello>
message from a device, the NETCONF client must respond with at
least this capability.
